Tens of thousands of Iranian dissidents gathered Saturday in Paris for a demonstration that was supposed to be filled with historic symbolism: a city synonymous with revolution and resistance hosting a massive call for the oppressive regime in Iran to be toppled. Instead, French authorities banned the march. The result was a confrontation that transformed the annual gathering of the world’s largest Iranian dissident group into a debate about France and whether the government of President Emmanuel Macron yielded to security fears or pressure from Tehran. Former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, one of the central speakers at the rally...

CBS News: When asked by CBS News' Nancy Cordes about the U.S.-Iran memorandum of understanding not including any enforcement measures if Iran doesn't comply, President Trump said “we're going to bomb the hell out of” Iran if they don’t adhere to the agreement. “I don't think they're going to veer from the agreement,” Trump said. “What else am I going to do? Am I going to say I'm going to take you to court? Let me take you to court. Let me sue you. No, we're going to bomb the hell out of them if they violate the agreement.”

Well, to be clear, it appears that many of the sanctions have already been lifted, as Iranian oil shipments are flowing out of the Strait of Hormuz. The blockade, it appears, is already over, even before the official signing we expect on Friday. The lifting of sanctions on oil-related exports appears to be point #10 in the leaked but unconfirmed Memorandum of Understanding. 🚨 The Iranian television is broadcasting from the Strait of Hormuz. and claims: At least 3 oil tankers carrying 5 million barrels of crude oil have passed through the Strait of Hormuz in recent hours. pic.twitter.com/13txRGNFEv— Raylan...

The Deal with the Islamic Republic of Iran is now complete. Congratulations to all! I hereby fully authorize the toll free opening of the Strait of Hormuz, and, simultaneously herewith, authorize the immediate removal of the United States Naval blockade. Ships of the World, start your engines. Let the oil flow! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Based on the fact that discussions with the Islamic Republic of Iran have been brought to the highest level of Iranian leadership and approved, I have, as President of the United States of America, cancelled the scheduled strikes and bombings against Iran this evening. Discussions and final points have been, in both concept and great detail, approved by all parties involved, including the United States, Israel, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Turkey, Pakistan, Bahrain, Kuwait, Jordan, Egypt, and others. The Naval Blockade will remain in full force and effect until this Transaction is finalized — Time and place of the signing...

A deal with France to pay for migrant beach patrols has been delayed because Shabana Mahmood wants stricter, payment-by-results terms, The Times has been told. The Home Office said it was trying to add “flexibility and innovation” to the agreement to base funding on the number of interceptions made by the French. British officials will go to Paris this week for another round of talks on the proposed three-year deal before the existing arrangement expires next Tuesday. There are concerns about a potential surge in Channel crossings if there is a gap between the deals. At present, Britain pays nearly...

Prior to the 1979 Iranian Revolution, when American military bases were hosted by the Shah, there was a separate tier of justice, like the difference between Sharia and Rum courts, to which American military criminal justice cases were referred. [The "Rum" (Orthodox Christians) under eastern Muslim governments, were generally governed by their own religious laws in civil matters. They were considered a minority protected under the millet-like system that allowed communal, self-governing ecclesiastical courts, particularly in religious, matrimonial, and inheritance cases, rather than strict Islamic Sharia. A similar system under British occupation was the Irish "Breton Law" courts in which,...

Moscow has proposed a 70-mile Elon Musk-built 'Putin-Trump' rail tunnel which would link Russia and America. The tunnel, which would go under the Bering strait, would unlock joint exploration of natural resources and 'symbolise unity', a Kremlin envoy said. The proposal has suggested using The Boring Company, a US tunnel construction company owned by Elon Musk, to construct the $8billion bridge. It comes as the Kremlin desperately tries to stop Donald Trump from providing crucial Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine. Kirill Dmitriev, President's Vladimir Putin's investment envoy and head of Russia's RDIF sovereign wealth fund, said Moscow and 'international partners', including...

It has been said the loser contributes as much to the outcome of a battle as the victor. Insofar as the clinical and brutal assassination of Charlie Kirk is concerned, the Republican Party has too many members who are ensuring another historic loss (and progressives another win) in coming elections. Surely there could be Republican consensus. The victim was truly innocent, the killer and the progressive ideology that drove him to murder truly evil. And yet, to the eternal and everlasting shame of many in the Republican Party, we hear calls not of anger or outrage, but of “moderation” and...

After the six hostages, including American Hersh Goldberg-Polin, were murdered by Hamas, Joe Biden's response was unbelievable. Instead of condemning Hamas to reporters, he attacked Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for not doing enough. That, despite the fact that he has stood in Netanyahu's way of finishing off Hamas. He also said he was going to get around to talking with Netanyahu "eventually," treating our ally like dirt. What he doesn't seem to understand -- or maybe just doesn't care about -- is that every time he does that and puts more pressure on Israel, that emboldens Hamas; It makes...

Kim Burrell is a Grammy-nominated gospel singer and ‘pastor’ of Spirit of Faith Christian Center in Maryland, who previously garnered a bit of controversy after, in 2022, she mocked congregants for being “broke” and “ugly,” suggesting they were beneath her, and again in early 2024 after she acted like a diva over another member of the worship team singing along with her. Now, she’s apologizing for her 2017 ‘anti-LGBTQ’ comments. She told the audience at the 39th annual Stellar Gospel Music Awards, for which the 51-year-old was accepting the Aretha Franklin Icon Award, that she was sorry for her “hurtful”...

Democrat President Joe Biden’s administration has extended a sanctions waiver in order to release another $10 billion in frozen funds for Iran. According to the Associated Press, the four-month extension will allow the Iranian regime access to previously frozen $10 billion in electricity revenues. The Biden admin insists that the terror-linked Islamic dictatorship will use the funds for “humanitarian aid.” However, experts have repeatedly warned that giving Iran to access frozen funds will free up money in Tehran’s money reserves. By freeing up Iran’s reserves, the regime will be able to continue sponsoring terrorism and developing nuclear weapons. The sanctions...

Some experts believe the deal signifies an easing of tensions between Tehran and Washington. Five American prisoners held in Iran flew out of Tehran on Monday officials said, as part of a deal that saw nearly $6 billion in Iranian assets unfrozen. Despite the deal, tensions are almost certain to remain high between the US and Iran, which are locked in various disputes, including over Tehran’s nuclear program. Iran says the program is peaceful, but it now enriches uranium closer than ever to weapons-grade levels. The planned exchange has unfolded amid a major American military buildup in the Persian Gulf,...

The U.S.-Mexico border has, rightfully, been the center of attention for even normally unconcerned mainstream outlets after last week's expiration of Title 42. More records for daily encounters and the number of illegal immigrants released into the U.S. have been set, and another individual on a terror watch list was apprehended after illegally crossing into the country, putting an exclamation point on the dangers posed by an unsecured border. But at the same time, illegal immigrants have been surging across the U.S.-Canada border, but getting far less attention. Townhall previously reported on warnings from border officials and local leaders as...

Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that President Joe Biden had “led the greatest expansion of lawful pathways” for immigration asylum seekers. Mayorkas said, “So, the asylum system has been and continues to be a jewel of the United States. We take great pride as a country in this world to provide humanitarian relief for those who qualify. But the landscape of migration has changed dramatically over the past 10-plus years. No longer are individuals arriving at our border of their own volition. They are arriving in the hands of smugglers that...

Vice President Kamala Harris, who was tasked by the White House to address the "root cause" of mass migration, attended a fundraiser Friday in a wealthy Atlanta suburb, less than 24 hours after Title 42 expired. Harris gave remarks at the Democratic Party of Georgia's spring soirée in Buckhead, but did not mention immigration during her speech that appeared to last about 20 minutes. The event came as thousands of migrants flooded the border after the expiration of Title 42 – a COVID-19 emergency policy that allowed border agents to turn away migrants.

As we look around today we hear Christian heretics brazenly preaching from pulpits and advising our almost completely godless government. In tandem with this we see churches closing their doors, and great numbers of fearful Christians fading into the woodwork if not conforming to the demands of our perverted, evil government. How did our one-time Christian land come to this? The work you are about to read reveals the methodology of evil behind the wizards curtain.
