Troubling developments have highlighted Europe’s continued slide into political turmoil and totalitarianism. As we discussed last time, the EU has no choice but to sharply agitate for war in order to keep its frail political structures intact, because the war drums drown out the organic cries for change and liberation from the EU’s despotic rule. It is the age old tactic used by tyrants time and again, most recently by Netanyahu in Israel. All the while, new undemocratic measures are “slipped in” while the populace is distracted by the hysteria; case in point being the sudden push for national digital...

Bill Maher, an American comedian, political commentator, and television host known for his sharp, often controversial critiques of religion, politics, and culture, used his HBO talk show Real Time with Bill Maher on Friday (Sept. 26) to spotlight ongoing violence against Christians in Nigeria. Maher has hosted the long-running show since 2003, featuring unscripted debates with guests from across the political spectrum. During a panel discussion, U.S. Representative Nancy Mace, a Republican from South Carolina, thanked Maher for raising the issue and said the media has failed to cover the tragedy. “Nigeria, the fact that this issue has not gotten...

Most impressive compendium at 21:10: Jen Psaki: You shouldn't be banned from one platform, and not others, for providing misinformation out there... Tim Walz: There's no guarantee to free speech on misinformtion, or hate speech, and especially around our democracy Hillary Clinton: There are Americans who are engaged this kind of propaganda, ahh… and whether they should be civilly, or even in some cases criminally charged, is something that would be a better deterrent… John F. Kerry: If people go to only one source, and the source they go to is sick, and ah… you know, has an agenda, and...

During a review of the FBI's January 6, 2021 after-action report it was discovered that 274 plain clothes FBI agents were assigned to mingle with the crowd that trespassed in the Capitol on that day. Many of those agents later filed complaints with the after-action team saying they "were sent into an unsafe scenario without proper safety equipment or the ability to identify themselves readily as armed officers to other police agencies." Another agent said "I no longer feel it is legally or morally acceptable to support a federal law enforcement and intelligence agency motivated by political bias." Yet another...

It is not hyperbole to think the Moldovan election today may possibly determine whether a NATO war with Russia takes place, or whether the NATO desire for conflict slowly begins to dissolve. {GO DEEP} The small country squeezed between Romania (the largest NATO super-base constructed) and Ukraine, is located in a critical area. Whether Moldova joins the EU, or whether Moldova remains independently free from Brussels influence, is part of the outcome. The Moldova Parliamentary Elections are today.The EU/NATO are at a zero-sum inflection point. THIS is the tinderbox.There are roughly 2.5 million registered Moldovan voters living in Moldova. However,...

A 24-year-old illegal immigrant from Venezuela who posed as a teenager in Toledo, Ohio, now faces decades in prison after admitting to a scheme that lasted more than a year. Anthony Emmanuel Labrador Sierra pleaded guilty this past week to multiple charges after forging immigration documents and claiming to be a 16-year-old student at Perrysburg High School in January 2024, the New York Post reported. According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Ohio, Sierra, who crossed the border in 2019 and was only permitted to stay until March 2020 by the Biden administration, also illegally purchased...

Some months back I asked for prayers for my wife Jane and niece Diane. Both were facing long odds to survive serious medical conditions. Last Sunday September 21, my dear wife Jane passed on to her heavenly reward. Jane was a faithful Catholic and a loving wife and mother. She was in the state of grace and I am comforted by that acknowledge. Jane had been in various hospitals and facilities for the last 18 weeks; and all of the medical problems that arose made fighting her stage 4 uterine cancer impossible.

AWisconsin RINO who appears to have a penchant for “sexually explicit” material — and a connection to a trans porn site — has dropped out of the Badger State governor’s race. Whitefish Bay businessman Bill Berrien, who also had a past dalliance with the disastrously kinky election method known as ranked-choice voting, quit Friday following reports linking the candidate to several “sexually explicit accounts” on social media. He apparently connected to said accounts through the platform Medium, where he followed Jiz Lee, a “trans” sex peddler, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported earlier this week.

Some enthusiasts for “gun control” on the left are trying to claim that Charlie Kirk’s assassination shows that Kirk’s support for the Second Amendment was wrong.The assassin appears to have used a hunting rifle. It is a variant of the extremely common Mauser 98, with a telescopic sight. It is one of the most common types of hunting rifles existing in the United States, probably in the world. This is the type of rifle that the vast majority of those pushing for more limitations on the ownership and use of firearms specifically remove from their restrictive lists. Even in Australia,...

A major shift in trucking safety rules is underway and it could change how California truck accident cases are fought and won. The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) and the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) have announced an emergency CDL new law restricting who can hold a commercial driver’s license (CDL) if they are not U.S. citizens or permanent residents. These changes came after multiple deadly crashes and a federal audit that found California issued thousands of licenses in violation of safety standards. For anyone hurt in a truck crash, this isn’t just a policy update. It’s new legal...

Giuliani who was the person to recruit Comey as Assistant US Attorney in the Southern District of New York, calls him one of the people who have done the most damage to federal law enforcement ever out there. Gives accounts of the wars waged on him, including seizing his bank accounts etc by the Biden regime, Fani Willis essentially because he was Trump's lead lawyer.

Gerry Nolan: "Kiev’s Gleiwitz Gambit: Europe on the Edge of 1939 Redux History doesn’t just repeat — it mutates. In 1939, the world stumbled into catastrophe after Nazi operatives staged the infamous Gleiwitz incident: a radio station seized, a body left as “proof,” and a lie broadcast to justify war. Eighty-six years later, whispers from the battlefield suggest Kiev may be scripting its own Gleiwitz 2.0. Only this time, the stage is NATO’s eastern flank, the props are repurposed Geran drones, and the audience is a sleepwalking Europe. Hungarian journalists were the first to sound the alarm: several downed Russian...

The Obama library is a massive money laundering operation designed to funnel tax free funds to the worst terrorist elements here and abroad. Tides has also handled donations for Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation, which sued the group in California Superior Court last year. It alleged “egregious mismanagement” of more than $33 million in their funds, according to court documents. That lawsuit is ongoing. And what a money laundering operation it is. Obama’s ‘presidential’ library is almost a billion over budget and three years late. It has been in the works for eight years and only half done. Originally,...

Interestingly, it is Dept of Homeland Security Investigations, not the FBI, leading the case.Three suspects, likely Antifa affiliates, followed an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer to his home in California, and then livestreamed the location calling on followers to join them in protest outside his home while shouting anti-ICE messaging.The Dept of Homeland Security (DHS) investigated and arrested the individuals and a federal grand jury has indicted the trio. One count of conspiracy and a second count of targeting a federal officer.DHSI took the cell phones of the suspects and has the phone contact information. Antifa affiliates are freaking out.Central...

From Kurt Schlichter: “Quick, everybody care what a bunch of impotent, fussy foreigners think about us! No, really, we should give a damn that some herring-gobbling fjord jockey is mad about Donald Trump. Yeah, Norwegians totally matter. But not really. No foreigner matters. Not Canadians, not the English, not the Arabs (especially of the nonexistent Palestinian variety), not the Papua/New Guineans. Here’s the reality. Most foreigners are trash. Most people who aren’t Americans suck. And treacherous Americans who presume to leverage the puny outrage of second-rate cultures against ours deserve our contempt and mockery almost as much as the foreigners...

Former FBI chief James Comey was indicted on criminal charges of lying to Congress and obstructing justice. The indictment came just days before the expiring statute of limitations would have made the charges moot. Former US Attorney Erik Siebert had been delaying pursuing the case but was fired by President Trump and replaced by an attorney who pursued and obtained the indictment. Nearly five years ago, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex) questioned Comey under oath about testimony he had given during a 2017 hearing to Sen. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa). Comey confirmed that he had denied ever leaking information to the media...
