The top secret June 2025 B-2 Bomber strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities was launched from Whiteman Air Force base, which shares a fence with a foreign-owned trailer park linked to a convicted fraudster with Chinese Communist Party (CCP) intelligence ties. The Knob Noster Trailer Park in rural Missouri is located less than a mile from the runway of “the world’s only nuclear-capable stealth bomber.” Business filings and social media posts reveal the RV park is one of several properties near U.S. military interests acquired by a web of shell companies, which are ultimately owned by a couple who live in...

My jaw hit the floor listening to this Las Cruces Chief of Police in New Mexico says a man has broken the windows in City Hall multiple times, every time his felonies are dismissed He “has been arrested at least 108 TIMES, with at least 15 of those being felonies” “Mr. Garcia had had several cases dismissed because he was found incompetent, and again, that's being dismissed without consequences or treatment. He was also deemed to be not dangerous by the courts. But let me give you a few of his recent involvements:” - November 2022: Confronted by a GameStop...

The grand opening ceremony of a sprawling 150,000-square-foot “milestone for the global Shia Ismaili Muslim community and a transformative addition to the city’s cultural landscape” has opened in Houston. “The Ismaili Center opens in Houston — a first for the U.S.,” by Shafaq Patel, Axios, November 6, 2025: The stone tapestry, with its triangular patterns, illuminates at night and has shadows in the day. The Ismaili Center, Houston, an architecturally grand cultural and religious space and one of only seven worldwide, has completed construction and is opening to the public next month. Why it matters: The 150,000-square-foot center — the...

Is America about to be hit with a Mamdani-style socialist tidal wave? That’s what more than a few Americans are thinking as the dust settles on the unnerving election of socialist Democrat Zohran Mamdani in New York City. Make no mistake, his faction of the Democratic Party absolutely has momentum after the win. So right now, much of the national political discourse is focused on the “meaning of Mamdani.” I grew up in California, the Bay Area, and got used to “fringy” leftists in local government. But to see an American city as massive and iconic as New York fall...

Wall Street Apes @WallStreetApes: Muslims claim New York for Islam “We're done hiding. We're done. —This is the correct[sic]religion. This is the religion[sic] that all of humanity needs to be a part of Islam, and we will not stop until it enters every home. — I wanna hear it in every single district. It should tremble. Brooklyn should hear it. The Bronx should hear it. Queens should hear it. Say it as if the ummah depends on this, my brothers and sisters — There is no God worthy of worship except Allah — and final pro_het[sic], Mohammed.”

Several Trump Administration officials including top adviser Stephen Miller, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Army Secretary Dan Driscoll, have felt the need to live in military housing in order to be safe from politically motivated violence. An article the Atlantic by Michael Scherer, Missy Ryan, and Ashley Parker pointed out that "this is far more frequent than what has been the case than in the Obama and Biden administrations. Maybe it's MAGA's own fault. They ought to look inward for answers as to why this might be occurring. Perhaps...

Despite detailed photographic evidence to the contrary, many liberals continue to assert that the Venezuelan boats recently destroyed by the U.S. Navy are merely fishing, not drug, boats. The Associated Press has jumped into the fray and in a roundabout "nuanced" way admitted that the destroyed boats are indeed drug boats. The "nuance" comes in via the AP asserting that among the crews of the drug boats, some worked mostly as fishermen or other low paying jobs with drug smuggling only as a side gig to boost their income. The AP reluctantly made the 'nuanced' admission that the destroyed boats...

President Donald Trump has pardoned his former personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani, his former chief of staff Mark Meadows and others, according to a Justice Department official. Ed Martin, the government's pardon attorney, posted on X a signed proclamation of the "full, complete, and unconditional" pardon, which also names conservative attorneys Sidney Powell and John Eastman. The document "includes, but is not limited to" 77 people. It says the pardon does not apply to Trump. Trump, in the proclamation dated Friday, said the move would end "a grave national injustice" and "continue the process of national reconciliation." Presidential pardons only apply...

Below is my column in the Hill on moments of honesty after the recent Democratic victories in California, Virginia, New Jersey, and New York. In the euphoria that followed, Democratic politicians and pundits admitted that they intend to pursue radical changes, including packing the Supreme Court, once they retake power. Here is the column: “In vino veritas.” The Roman proverb — “In wine, there is truth” — reflects the fact that people are often at their most honest when they’ve had a few. Elections can have the same effect for some to become drunk on even the prospect of power....

President Trump likes to test policy proposals on social media. This was his newest one, shared by Bill Pulte, the U.S. Director of Federal Housing and the chairman of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac 👇 Thanks to President Trump, we are indeed working on The 50 year Mortgage - a complete game changer. https://t.co/HZDPzO0qJG— Pulte (@pulte) November 8, 2025A 50-year mortgage would result in a slightly lower monthly payment, stretched out over 5 decades, with hundreds of thousands of extra dollars in interest. The reactions were not kind. But they were funny! MANY TWEETS AT LINK>........................ I think it's safe...

Chuck Schumer handed his head on a plate to President Trump last night as he surrendered on shutting down the government. After 40 days of slithering to the microphone each day with a new rant to an increasingly bored media about our favorite president, Chuck realized the futility of shutting down the government because all he did was anger the Democrat Party’s key constituent—welfare recipients—and leave helpless airline passengers stranded in city after city. Trump meanwhile went about his life as usual, savoring every minute of his final presidency. He went to Asia and signed historic peace and trade agreements....

Two top bosses at the BBC, including Tim Davie, its director-general and editor-in-chief, have resigned after a bombshell report found it “doctored” video of a speech President Donald Trump gave to make it appear like he was calling on his supporters to “fight” and be violent during the Jan. 6 Capitol Riot. BBC News CEO Deborah Turness joined Davie in quitting; she resigned on Saturday, and Davie quit on Sunday. Their resignations come less than a week after The Telegraph reported editors for Panorama, the BBC’s longest-running investigative series, duped viewers during an October 2024 special by altering the sequence...

After nearly 40 days, the Schumer Shutdown is finally over. Enough Democrats are reportedly crossing over, abandoning their party’s intransigent stance, to allow the government to resume operations. From what has been reported, it doesn’t sound like the Republicans gave up anything significant. Based on the speeches by Chuck Schumer (bordering on the insane) and John Thune, it sounds like what tipped the balance was disruption to air travel. Important Democrats are not on food stamps, but they fly. A lot. So when a shutdown of air travel threatened, pressure on Democratic senators became irresistible. That is my reading of...

Glenn Beck, founder of conservative media company “TheBlaze,” joins “Batya!” for an in-depth discussion about the state of our country. He and host Batya Ungar-Sargon hit on topics from democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani’s mayoral win and what it means for New York City, to the legacy of Charlie Kirk and how he was crucial to Trump’s 2024 presidential victory.

Kevin Roberts of 'Heritage Foundation' on Tucker Carlson-Nick Fuentes ScandalComplete Summary – October 27 to November 9, 2025Overview of the ScandalThe controversy began after Tucker Carlson interviewed white nationalist and Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes on October 27, 2025, in a two-hour podcast that amassed over 17 million views on X. Carlson asked softball questions, nodded approvingly, and did not challenge Fuentes’ antisemitic remarks, praise for Hitler and Stalin, or claims about “organized Jewry” controlling U.S. politics. Carlson also accused pro-Israel American Christians of having a “brain virus” and being heretics.This triggered bipartisan outrage, with critics accusing Carlson of normalizing neo-Nazi...

Moved almost to tears, three of US President Donald Trump’s closest confidants stood together…on the stage at Hostages Square – a central Tel Aviv plaza that, since the October 7, 2023 Hamas massacre, has become the beating heart of weekly demonstrations calling for the release of Israelis still held captive in Gaza and, increasingly, for an end to the war. It was Witkoff’s third visit to Hostages Square in less than a year, and that compares with not a single visit by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu or most of his ministers. The hostages’ families have described many times their connection...

FBI & DEA Raids Governor’s Office in Massachusetts — 1.2 Tons Drug, 129 Guns Seized | US Military Breaking operation in Massachusetts. FBI and DEA, supported by US Military intelligence units, coordinated with US Military analysts to launch a raid inside the Governor’s Office, uncovering 1.2 tons of narcotics, 129 firearms, and corruption. This was not a street case; it was betrayal inside the seat of power. US Military support teams secured communications and perimeter control. Federal agencies and the US Military acted together when national security and trust were threatened. This case reveals how deep networks infiltrate government institutions.

In this video, I explain why my old crew would never back defunding police or Marxist policies, how our neighborhood code demanded law and order, and what would happen if we let a communist marshal our streets. Get ready for an insider’s look at the principles that once ruled the underworld—and why they’d move heaven and earth to stop this mayor.

Alec Penstone, a 100-year-old veteran of World War Two, appeared on Good Morning Britain this week to offer a damning indictment on the state of his country today. With liberals weaponizing immigration to change the face of Western countries — literally — and the British government fully embracing censorship, arresting people by the dozens over social media posts, it’s fair to say that the Greatest Generation struggles to recognize the world they collectively saved. Asked what Remembrance Day means to him, Penstone, who served in the Royal Navy, responded with a heart-wrenching message. “My message is,” he said, “I can...
