The government has identified 18,000 known or suspected terrorists who reached the U.S. during the Biden administration, senior officials told Congress on Thursday. Joe Kent, director of the National Counterterrorism Center, said they represent a “persistent” threat inside the country. “The No. 1 threat that we have right now in my view is the fact that we don’t know who came into our country in the last four years of Biden’s open borders,” Mr. Kent told the House Homeland Security Committee as part of a hearing on worldwide threats. He said the 18,000 are just the ones his agency has...

On November 18, 2025, Trump and the Saudi Crown Prince walked into the Oval Office and treated it like a showroom floor. Every sentence was a sales pitch. Every claim was polished to sound like victory. And every lie was delivered with the confidence of people who assume the public won’t bother checking the fine print.What you’re about to read is a highlight reel of contradictions, fantasy numbers, selective memory, and the kind of strategic blindness that gets entire regions burned to the ground.They said the quiet parts out loud, assuming no one would connect the dots.So I did.Below is...

The Council on American-Islamic Relations’s (CAIR) legal arm has filed a lawsuit challenging Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s (R) designation of their group as a “foreign terrorist organization” — a stance at odds with the U.S. government. CAIR is the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights advocacy organization, according to a description on its website. The organization’s legal defense fund and the Muslim Legal Fund of America, a legal advocacy group for Muslims, sued both Abbott and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R) on Thursday to prevent the enforcement of Abbott’s designation. “CAIR Legal Defense Fund has successfully sued and defeated Texas...

The German people are increasingly concerned about safety in public spaces compared to before the 2015 migrant crisis, which was imposed on the country by the Berlin establishment. Nearly half of German voters say they are personally concerned about their safety in public, according to the Deutschlandtrend survey by the Infratest Dimap opinion research institute, which surveyed 1,300 eligible voters between November 3 and 5. According to the survey, 48 per cent of Germans feel uneasy in parks, public squares, streets, or trains and buses. This represented nearly a 100 per cent increase over the past decade, the pollster noted....

Ancient Iraqi Art Determined Poisonous Jennifer Viegas, Discovery News Jan. 22, 2007 — Some ninth century Iraqi artists may have literally died for their art, suggests new analysis of Iraqi stucco fragments from this period. A fragment, taken from the ancient palace-city of Samarra, contains three arsenic-based pigments that are known to be poisonous and may cause cancer upon exposure. Although the findings will not be published until May in the Journal of Archaeological Science, curators at London's Victoria and Albert Museum, where the fragments are housed, have already taken special handling precautions. "The fragments are stored in a locked...

"I will not allow Israel to annex the West Bank. Nope, I will not allow it. It's not going to happen," Trump told reporters in the Oval Office. "There's been enough. It's time to stop now," he said. France, Britain, Canada, Australia and Portugal are among the countries that have recognized a Palestinian state in the last few days, in part to help keep the possibility of a two-state solution alive. Israel has condemned the moves. Trump made the comments as Netanyahu was arriving in New York to deliver an address to the United Nations on Friday. Netanyahu's office said...

Seven Alternative für Deutschland politicians died within two weeks of each other before local elections, prompting party leaders to hint at foul play.

BREAKING: EUROPE’S FUTURE IS VANISHING These are CRAZY stats. Brussels is now 52% Muslim schoolchildren. Amsterdam 43%. Vienna 41%. London 37%. Half of Europe’s capitals have 30%+ Muslim pupils - the shift is exploding in classrooms. Europe’s identity is collapsing.

Germany's Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party has been designated as right-wing extremist by the country's federal office for the protection of the constitution. "The ethnicity- and ancestry-based understanding of the people prevailing within the party is incompatible with the free democratic order," the domestic intelligence agency said in a statement. The AfD came second in federal elections in February, winning a record 152 seats in the 630-seat parliament with 20.8% of the vote. The parliament, or Bundestag, will hold a vote next week to confirm conservative leader Friedrich Merz as chancellor, heading a coalition with the centre-left Social Democrats. The...

Jihadists are murdering, raping, torturing, kidnapping, enslaving, and, in some instances, burning people alive — across Africa, and now in Syria. Local jihadist organizations go by different names, but the ideology that drives them is the same: Every one of them deeply believes that Allah wants him to wipe the world clean of the kuffar (infidels). More than 16.2 million Christians in Sub-Saharan Africa have been driven from their homes by jihadi violence and conflict, reports the human rights organization Open Doors. Women and girls are abducted, forced into "marriage," forced to convert to Islam, raped, and subjected to forced...

In his November 17, 2024 lesson on Islamic eschatology, Colorado Islamic scholar Karim Abu Zayd discussed prophecies stating that Islam would enter every home on Earth, and that America and China would fall, with Muslims ultimately conquering Europe. He remarked that Muslims who have emigrated from the East can see how the prophecy of Islam entering every home is “almost realized.” In response to a caller from California, asking about the authenticity of the hadith according to which the Muslims would conquer the Vatican, Abu Zayd responded that the hadith is authentic, and it uses the word, “Rome” to refer...

Gorka, President-elect Donald Trump's pick as senior director for counterterrorism, made several statements in favor of Israel recently, including that "Palestine" doesn't exist and that IDF generals should forget about diplomacy and focus on defeating terrorists militarily. Gorka, who had served as deputy assistant to Trump from January to August 2017 during Trump's first term in office, broached the issue of Palestine in an interview on Nov. 16 with a host for RT, a Russian state-controlled international news television network.

Dutch populist leader Geert Wilders has hailed an agreement to crack down on mass migration and asylum in the Netherlands as “historic”. Following months of negotiations, the coalition government in The Hague has reached a deal to pass an Asylum Emergency Measures Act, which will introduce a range of new restrictions on mass migration. This will fulfil a key campaign promise from Party for Freedom (PVV) leader Geert Wilders, who swept to a major victory last year and serves as the main power broker behind the government. The legislation will empower the country from next month to begin deporting Syrian...

COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — Swedish authorities on Thursday charged a 52-year-old woman associated with the Islamic State group with genocide, crimes against humanity and serious war crimes against Yazidi women and children in Syria — in the first such case of a person to be tried in the Scandinavian country. Lina Laina Ishaq, who’s a Swedish citizen, allegedly committed the crimes from August 2014 to December 2016, in Raqqa, the former de facto capital of the self-proclaimed IS caliphate and home to about 300,000 people. The crimes “took place under IS rule in Raqqa, and this is the first time...

Finally, the UK public explodes. Should anyone be surprised that what has been called a “wave of violence” swept the cities of Britain this past weekend? For years, while the mass immigration of Muslims has utterly transformed their country, the overwhelming majority of Brits have stuck to form – keeping a stiff upper lip, queuing politely for buses, and biting their tongues as they watched entire neighborhoods, such as the traditionally cockney East End of London, converted to Muslim enclaves. In the months since October 7, they sat home and sipped their tea while armies of Muslims filled their streets...

At a press conference alongside the prime minister of Montenegro,...

Thousands of protesters marched through Hamburg over the weekend calling for an Islamic state in Germany and clutching signs that declared, “Caliphate is the solution.” Videos of the Saturday rally showed demonstrators chanting “Allahu akbar,” or “God is great,” and carrying copies of the local tabloid newspaper, Bild, with stories about Islam that had been smeared with red paint. The demonstration was organized by the controversial group Muslim Interaktiv, which is currently being investigated by Hamburg’s domestic intelligence for “extremism,” according to The Telegraph. The group’s leader, Joe Adade Boateng, declared Germany needed a “righteous caliphate” to rectify the misrepresentation...
