Palestinianism includes: Rewriting history.Converting immigrants' grandchildren into "natives."The aggressor as victim - false victinhood. 'Dead baby strategy' --using its very own--not the adversary's-- population as human shields to make sure they die in order to blame Israel, ever since Arafat reign in Lebanon. Injecting "palestinian" propaganda at every group cause, unrelated. Pallywood, fake imagery. Gloatimg in public, dancing at others' pain. (911, and at every racist-Arab terror attack on Jews anywhere in the world), Almost unique animalism: waving organs as hundreds moan in public square at the Oct 2000 Ramallah Lynch; Oct 7 upclose and personal cruelty, bragging with severe...

(Oct. 2, 2025) — I recently came upon a follow-up piece to Jeremy Kuzmarov PhD’s uniquely excellent and comprehensive essay on Barack Obama and the CIA. The initial essay by Kuzmarov was published on the CovertAction Magazine website on October 1, 2021 and titled “A Company Family: The Untold History of Obama and the CIA.” Not only is this initial article a fantastic investigative work, but it is one which is enhanced by photographs and histories of many family members and associates of Obama and the CIA (noted to include current Illinois Governor JB Pritzker, who “had long ties” to...

Islamists RIOT Across UK After Manchester Synagogue Attack

It's a matter of logic. If you're not pro-life if you oppose abortion but support the death penalty, then you're not pro-life if you oppose the death penalty but support abortion. But it's not clear that Pope Leo embraces that logic. And no one on the panel on today's CNN This Morning did Substitute host Erica Hill kicked off the conversation by playing a clip of Pope Leo expressing support for Dem Sen. Dick Durbin. He was scheduled to receive a "Lifetime Achievement" award for his pro-immigrant stance. Some bishops opposed the award given Durbin's staunch support of abortion. In...

Construction of new battleships ceased almost immediately post World War II—the last launched was HMS Vanguard, completed in 1946. Their heavy armor and guns diminished even further in relevance with the evolution of anti-ship missiles, which have a longer range and hit hard enough to negatively tilt the cost-benefit tradeoffs of heavy armor. Missile defense became a better use of tonnage than steel plates.

The healthcare “cuts” Democrats are using as an excuse to shut down the government are actually the phase-out of temporary pandemic-era Obamacare credits. Contrary to their current talking points, the phase-out of these credits was included in the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which passed without a single Republican vote. This legislation, which significantly increased federal spending on temporary pandemic-related healthcare programs, extended subsidies for insurance policies purchased through the Obamacare exchanges only through 2025. The Biden administration’s emergency pandemic subsidies should be allowed to expire as intended. This would enable individual and small group plans to regain fiscal stability...

A recent study from Tyton Partners reveals that what students believe about AI use is quite at odds with their actual AI use. The study, which surveyed over 1,500 students, more than 1,500 instructors, and over 300 administrators, reveals that student and faculty attitudes toward AI in academia have both taken a downturn since 2024. Turning to artificial intelligence for academic assistance is not widely believed, by either students or educators, to be conducive to greater educational quality. Student preference for AI as a primary source of academic help has dropped 13 percentage points since 2024. Faculty attitudes about the...

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent appears on CNBC to discuss the second full day of the government shutdown and the potential ramifications therein. Office of Management and Budget Director Russ Vought is meeting with President Trump today to discuss the facets of the government that will be closed and for the duration therein. Secretary Bessent is asked if the furloughs will be a long-term feature of the backfire created by the Democrat strategy. Bessent reemphasizes he personally joined the Trump administration to shrink the scale of government spending, and the administration is not going to flinch on any CR agreement that...

VIDEOMargaret Dumont was NOT amused and in our era neither is Kaitlan Collins.

I am a Christian nationalist. In the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s worshipful memorial service, the political left has predictably busied itself with slander, labeling the event “Christian Nationalism’s biggest moment” or even a Nazi rally. Neither of these heinous descriptions are accurate. The Babylon Bee satirically mocked these claims with the headline “Nazi Rally Inspires Millions to Forgive And Love Their Enemies.” Indeed, Erika Kirk’s public and emotionally charged forgiveness of her husband’s murderer was one of the most powerful redemptive moments of our time. It’s now undeniable that the Left aims to label everyday conservative Christians who are politically...

The federal case against Gabriel Metcalf in Billings, Montana, under the federal Gun Free School Zone Act of 1990 (GFSZ), has been resolved in Metcalf’s favor. In a split decision, the three-judge panel on the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit has ordered the case remanded to the district court and has ordered the case dismissed. From the Summary by Judge VanDyke (purchased on PACER account): The panel reversed the district court’s order denying Gabriel Cowan Metcalf’s motion to dismiss an indictment charging him with possessing firearms within 1,000 feet of a school in violation of the Gun-Free School...

The irony couldn’t be richer. Just a day after we learned that President Joe Biden needed palm cards with pictures to recognize Pritzker and other key Democrats, Pritzker said Tuesday that it’s Trump who has dementia and should be removed from office. But the hypocrisy is still richer still because Pritzker played a big role in the scandalous coverup of Biden’s mental decline. Pritzker, while serving as a proxy for Biden, frequently and firmly attested to Biden’s mental health. Pritzker became vicious about it, attempting to smear a respected special prosecutor for concluding the Biden was too impaired to stand...

It's taken some time to properly gather my thoughts after Charlie Kirk's Assassination, and particularly around the aftermath. I started with making the theme of my Week in Radical Leftism roundup, asking if a Civil War is now inevitable. The quick summary is that the post didn't look at Democrats as a whole around the country, but rather how the Democratic Party's leadership has been acting since President Trump's return to office. Tonight I want to talk about what I've observed both in articles as well as what I've seen from people I know personally in my social media feeds....

Right Angle News Network @Rightanglenews BREAKING - A viral clip shows Dearborn, Michigan’s Police Chief speaking in Arabic, saying “Hamdullah, Hamdullah, all praise is due to Allah,” while boasting that the city’s police force has shifted from 3% Muslim to half of the entire force.

How Progressives Were Able to Rule the Western Nations: Good Intentions, Bad ResultsBy The HermitThe story of the West in the last hundred years is not one of a secret cabal or a single mastermind. It is the story of an idea — progressive ideology — that promised to perfect society through reason, science, and planning. It appealed to the best intentions of reformers, philanthropists, teachers, and politicians. Yet, like many noble experiments, it has produced results far different from what its advocates hoped. What began as a movement to uplift and modernize has ended by weakening the civic and...

When federal agents led by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement raided a South Shore residential building early yesterday, it understandably raised eyebrows. So what was that all about? And why was that particular building targeted? On Tuesday night, Ald. Raymond Lopez (15th) claimed on Twitter that the Venezuela-based street gang Tren de Aragua was behind it. “TdA’s took over the building,” Lopez wrote, adding, “they will not be missed — except by @ChicagosMayor & the Leftinos!” In fact, CWBChicago has learned the building raided by the feds was the site of a murder where a migrant was shot dead while...

The "Great Replacement" theory is a conspiracy theory that envisions a scheme to replace white, Christian populations in Western nations with nonwhite immigrants. It was once confined to the fringes of the far-Right. Now, the theory seems to have taken root in the mainstream of the GOP.

This police officer with the Leon County (Florida) Sheriff's Office is so paranoid, that he sees a guy (Robert) parked at a gas pump, with a gas pump in his hand, trying to pump some gas, and he immediately thinks it's something else in his hand. He gets scared. He pulls into the gas station, gets out of his police cruiser and draws down on the guy, shouting at him.

JERUSALEM-Prime Minister Menahem Begin said Monday that Israel is providing training, supplies and artilery support to Christian militiamen in south Lebanon. It is Israel's duty"to prevent what he called an attempt at "genocide" by Palestinian forces in Lebanon. Begin blasted France for failing to intervene on behalf of Christian villagers and soldiers who have been under earch all Issues siege in south Lebanon for months. He said that "Christian France, the patron of the Maronite Christians for ages. had sold them down the river" to carry favor with the Arab oil-producing countries who support the Palestinians. IT HAS BEEN known...

Gavin Newsom, California’s far-left Democrat governor, is known to have presidential aspirations. If he chooses that path, one of issues on which he will face a grilling will be economics. And a new study has revealed it won’t look good. It’s because since he imposed a $20-an-hour minimum wage for fast food workers in his state, California has lost close to 20,000 such jobs. “That’s nearly 25% of the country’s fast-food job losses during that same period, according to an analysis of quarterly data released this month from the Bureau of Labor Statistics,” charged a report in the Washington Examiner....
