President Donald Trump's 20-point plan to end the war in Gaza garnered widespread support from many Middle Eastern countries. Foreign ministers of Saudi Arabia, Jordan, the UAE, Indonesia, Pakistan, Türkiye, Qatar, Egypt, and the Palestinian Authority all welcomed Trump's efforts and agreed to work with the US to advance the implementation of the peace plan. The plan includes releasing the remaining hostages, disarming Hamas, and the possibility of a Palestinian state — if Hamas complies with the plan and the Palestinian Authority agrees to discontinue its anti-Israel policies. If Hamas does not comply, Israel is authorized to continue fighting until...

Wow. In Oregon’s emergency lawsuit to prevent the President from sending troops to protect federal property, a disturbing email from @PortlandPolice Sergeant Andrew Braun (badge #56961) was included. In it, Braun blames the victims of Antifa violence for their own assaults and attacks. Braun claims that journalist @KatieDaviscourt , citizen journalist @hunnybadgermom and conservative activist @RheinDAmacher are somehow responsible for being attacked by “protesters.” He falsely labels Daviscourt and Chelly Boufferache as “counter-protesters” and accuses them of trespassing on federal property. In reality, these journalists stay near or on federal property because when they're on public streets in Portland, the...

'The Savant' is straight out of a progressive fever dream, with no mention of whose actually committing political violence.Tongues are wagging over Apple TV+ benching “The Savant,” a new series following a hate-crime specialist tracking evil white men. The Jessica Chastain vehicle was slated to debut on September 26. Now? There’s no new release date set. Why the dramatic move? Apple won’t exactly say, but many have suggested that the show features a Charlie Kirk-like figure painted in a negative light.Well, we’ve seen the show’s first four episodes, and here’s the ugly truth. The series is ripped from a progressive’s...

Sham Uddin, devout Muslim barrister, has repeatedly weaponized his platform to spew rabid vitriol, masquerading it as "justice." His rhetoric isn't mere activism—it's a toxic brew of Jew-hatred and baseless fabrications that echo the worst historical apologists for evil, like Candace Owens' grotesque defenses of Josef Mengele. Uddin's "contributions" to outlets like TV Islam only amplify this poison, lending a veneer of legitimacy to what is, in truth, a dangerous incitement against Jews and the State of Israel, the world's bulwark against Islamist extremism. Both disseminating which they themselves do not believe.A Pattern of Hatred: From "Free Palestine" Rants to...

It was grudging praise for President Donald Trump yet considering the source it was surprising bordering on astounding praise. Atlantic magazine writer Nicholas Florko should therefore be put on the alert to prepare for his shunning by his colleagues and other members of the media for daring to give what is in effect high praise to Trump for forcing Pfizer to agree to slash its drug prices with other pharmaceutical companies expected to follow suit.Florko's Thought Crime arrived on Thursday in the form of his article, "Pfizer Finally Gave Trump What He Wanted." The praise from Florko did not come...

The Attorney General of the United States just opened an investigation into the Command Staff of the Portland Police for refusing to enforce the laws over ICE protests in Oregon. Chicago is next - following the shooting of an armed offender who was involved in a mass ramming of ICE vehicles, this went out over the PDTs: “NO UNITS WILL REPOND TO THIS…” (Image at link)

Sanae Takaichi, 64, won the Liberal Democratic Party leadership election on October 4, 2025, positioning her as Japan’s likely first female prime minister.Takaichi is a conservative ally of the late Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, and supports revising the pacifist constitution, boosting defense spending, and imposing stricter immigration policies.

The Cowardly Lions despite being an over three touchdown favorites lost to UCLA, which was the worst team in a Power 4 conference. At that the same time another overhyped and underperforming QB in Arch Manning threw 2 picks with only as 55% completion rate leading Texas to lose to the Gators. HORNS DOWN!!!

Tricia McLaughlin @TriciaOhio This morning, during routine patrolling in Broadview, in the same area of Chicago that law enforcement were assaulted yesterday, our brave law enforcement officers were rammed by vehicles and boxed in by 10 cars. Agents were unable to move their vehicles and exited the car. One of the drivers who rammed the law enforcement vehicle was armed with a semi-automatic weapon. Law enforcement was forced to deploy their weapons and fire defensive shots at an armed US citizen who drove herself to the hospital to get care for wounds. The armed woman was named in a @CBP...

The story of John Chapman is officially coming to the big screen. Chapman is one of the biggest legends in the history of the United States military. The Air Force 24th STS (a Tier One unit) CCT was killed during the Battle of Takur Ghar in March 2002. All hell broke loose on a mountain during Operation Anaconda, and the SEAL Team 6 team Chapman was attached to retreated under heavy enemy fire. Chapman was left alone without backup or help. He fought to the brutal and bloody end, engaging enemy fighters before eventually dying from his wounds. The elite...

VIDEOThe campaign of the Democrat candidate for Attorney General of Virginia, Jay Jones, is now in free fall due the revelation that he posted a wish to shoot the Speaker of the Virginia House of Delegates. Obviously Jones was motivated by RAGE. The same RAGE that the Democrat Virginia gubernatorial candidate, Abigail Spanberger claims fuels her. As she has stated, "Let your rage fuel you!" Imagine just how motivated by RAGE Jones will be when he LOSES the office for which just a week ago he was a shoo-in for winning.

ince Democrats have shut down the federal government because they want another $1.5 trillion bailout of Obamacare, it’s a good time to remind everyone that the law has been a wide-ranging and expensive fiasco. Virtually every promise made by Democrats regarding the Affordable Care Act has failed to come true. Sure, former President Barack Obama infamously promised that Americans could keep their preferred insurance if they desired. By the end of his second term, around 7 million people had been booted from their insurance because of the Affordable Care Act. Who knows how many have been dropped since. But let’s...

Ahead of the start of its 106th season, the National Football League saw an astonishing 710 percent increase in value over the past two decades, with teams worth $190 billion. The owners, many of whom have been involved with their teams for decades, are turning to new ways to capitalize on the exponential gains seen in the league — and to look out for their own interests The NFL generated $23 billion in revenue in 2024, nearing Commissioner Roger Goodell’s goal of $25 billion by 2027. This goal, set in 2010 when NFL revenue just crossed $8 billion, has been...

BRISTOL, CT — ESPN will bring its 45 years of sports coverage to a close as it shifts to exclusively covering the WNBA. After originating the 24-hour sports news cycle and becoming a household staple behind its flagship show "Sportscenter", the network had steadily moved away from sports over the past decade to start covering the WNBA. With ESPN canceling its contract with Major League Baseball, the network has officially shut down its last relationship with a sports league. "We want to bring our audience something besides sports. We want to bring them the WNBA," announced ESPN President James Pitaro....

Speeches by President Trump and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth to America's top generals and admirals were assailed by anonymous ex-Pentagon employees. "What difference does it make if a general or admiral is too fat to pass any of the fitness requirements that front-line soldiers and sailors are expected to meet?" one source wanted to know. "They're not going to be storming enemy positions or flying combat missions. All they have to do is give orders." Another fretted that "all the effort we've expended to compile a force that exemplifies diversity, equity, and inclusion is being cast aside. We're a...

There is a price to pay for the virulent, aggressive, pre-pogrom antisemitism that has swept the globe these past two years. Our blood is literally running in the streets of cities around the world. Our numbers are so small, just .2% of humanity. Many of us personally know and have connections to victims and survivors of this horror.
