After Trump's Thursday announcement praising her border security work, including what Noem called the 'most secure border in American history' and $13 billion in taxpayer savings, online conservatives urged her to primary Thune in South Dakota's 2028 race. Critics label Thune disloyal with a 51% Liberty Score and past bipartisan moves, while figures like radio host Jeff Kuhner predict Noem would crush him thanks to her MAGA ties and home-state popularity. Noem has stayed silent on any Senate bid, and with Thune's $20 million war chest and strong approvals, the talk remains early speculation amid GOP tensions. This story is...

LOUISVILLE, KY — Representative Thomas Massie has accused the Jewish population of rural Kentucky of being the cause of his primary defeat. After taking the stage to concede the race to Ed Gallrein, an angry Massie squarely laid the blame for his loss on the "dirty Zionists" of the tiny country towns that dot the Ohio River valley. "I couldn't reach Gallrein to concede. He was probably lost with his supporters in yet another small-town Kentucky synagogue," declared Massie. "Yes, the deck was stacked against me by the Hebrew population of rural Kentucky. We ran a great campaign, I'm really...

WASHINGTON — Former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene decried the downfall of her onetime colleague Rep. Thomas Massie following his GOP primary defeat Tuesday night. Greene (R-Ga.), who had allied with Massie (R-Ky.) to force the release of Justice Department files on late sex predator Jeffrey Epstein, argued that his defeat by President Trump-supported Ed Gallrein was a death knell to the party. “I am proud and thankful to have served in the US House of Representatives with my friend Thomas Massie, a giant among weak pathetic men. Releasing the Epstein files was our demise,” she moaned on X. “You are...

Dirty Brad Raffensperger, the corrupt Georgia Secretary of State, came in a distant third in the Republican Party gubernatorial primary on Tuesday night. Brad the Rat was eliminated from the race on Tuesday night. Raffensperger came in third and will not make the runoff election between the two top Republicans, Burt Jones and Rick Jackson. It was a good ole’ Peach Tree State shellacking! Raffensperger became a hero of the liberal media after he lied to the American public about the contents of a call he had with President Trump before the state certified the Georgia 2020 election. A 2024...

Ken Paxton is under fire for a plea deal his prosecutors offered last month to a Waco attorney charged with repeatedly sexually abusing a young boy. Paxton, locked in a heated primary to be the Republican nominee for U.S. Senate, is facing criticism from political opponents who say his office was too lenient toward the man, who admitted that he molested the victim. “There are times when I have to dismiss the case even when I know they committed this offense, because I can’t prove it and I can’t re-traumatize that child."(victim advocate)

Two people who hated Jews killed another guy who hates Jews. What a world. The two teens, Cain Clark and Caleb Vasquez, wrote a manifesto where they blamed the Jews for the majority of the world's problems. They named that manifesto "The New Crusade: Sons of Tarrant" in honor of Brenton Tarrant, the neo-Nazi who shot up a New Zealand mosque in 2019, killing 51 people. On one of the passages, the young men wrote this about the Jews: The Jews across all of time have been behind an EXTREMELY disproportionate amount of the world's problems, whether that be from...

The Context of the Margin Political analysts and election data clarify why this gap is highly notable: Final Election Results: Challenger Ed Gallrein won 54.9% of the vote compared to Thomas Massie's 45.1%. Expectations vs. Reality: In the final days leading up to the election, polling from outlets like Newsweek and the BBC indicated a "dead heat" or a "razor-thin margin". Massie himself publicly estimated a close "50-50 race". The nearly 10-point actual gap shattered those projections. Historical Performance: Massie noted that in a typical primary cycle, his independent conservative brand would easily net him roughly 80% of the vote....

A fine tradition that started in 2010. Long may it continue!

The arrest comes after more than a year of investigations into the death of the textile magnate, which was initially thought to be accidental after he fell off a cliff while walking with his son in the Salnitre caves in Barcelona's Collbató. Spanish authorities have arrested the son of the founder of fashion retailer Mango for the alleged murder of his billionaire father, who died in December 2024. Isak Andic died during a hiking trip on the mountain of Montserrat in Catalonia. According to his son Jonathan Andic's initial account of events, he fell some 150 metres into off a...

The Heart Attack Grill, the over-the-top Las Vegas restaurant known for its calorie-loaded "Bypass Burgers" and hospital-themed servers, announced this week it will close its Sin City doors. The restaurant was founded by Jon Basso in Chandler, Arizona, in 2005. It relocated to downtown Las Vegas in 2011. It's most known for its unapologetically indulgent menu — including massive burgers, fries cooked in pure lard, even unfiltered cigarettes.

BBC: When “Civilian” Becomes Propaganda The Bias Behind Caitríona Perry's Broadcast Word Stress, Narrative Control. BBC's (just another) Caitríona Perry biased anchor emphasizes the word “civilians” even when there is no evidence distinguishing who is a Hezbollah operative and who is not. Today 5/19/26, while reporting JD Vance’s statement on Iran, the Perry placed noticeable verbal emphasis on the word “civilian,” carefully inserting Iran’s propaganda narrative regarding its alleged nuclear aims. Perry hosts 'BBC America.'

There’s some drama happening in the progressive wing of the Democratic Party — rivalry between Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ro Khanna ahead of the 2028 presidential race, according to Axios. It’s been clear to see both position themselves as possible heirs to the Bernie Sanders movement, but they are not in agreement on what that movement looks like. What’s interesting here is that the divide isn’t just about personality. It’s about strategy, staffing and what version of “Bernie-style politics” they’re actually trying to inherit. Axios reports that on one side, you have what some are calling the “Old Bernie” approach...

(Image Matthew G Eddy / Shutterstock) AI uses a lot of power, and it needs massive data centers to support it. That's why, despite data centers having existed for decades, people are suddenly running for the hills. But do they have a reason to be afraid? You be the judge. Here are the scariest facts about data centers: Data centers are the ugliest buildings on earth: Ancient Greeks never built utilitarian buildings. They're almost as bad as nuclear power plants: And 100 times more deadly. They drink up one whole ocean per ChatGPT query: We might need the oceans...

“A vote for me will be a vote to change Labour,” Mr Burnham told the audience at the Great North summit in Leeds. For Labour, read Sir Keir Starmer. Mr Burnham could be prime minister before schools break for the summer holidays, so what he says on the campaign trail in this mother of all by-elections really matters. The theme first. Mr Burnham is arguing that Britain has been on the wrong path since the 1980s, a four-decade slide into decline that he is vowing to overturn. It is a rebuke not only of Thatcherism, which he argues gutted the...

Oil prices rose and global bonds wobbled on Monday, as fresh tensions in the Middle East fed inflation fears and bets that central banks will have to increase interest rates. Brent crude, the international benchmark for oil, rose on Monday, after an attack on a nuclear power plant in the United Arab Emirates. It came as peace talks between the US and Iran stalled in the sixth week of ceasefire. Donald Trump wrote on social media: “For Iran, the Clock is Ticking, and they better get moving, FAST, or there won’t be anything left of them. TIME IS OF THE...

Fox News host Jesse Watters lit the internet on fire after airing a jaw-dropping segment discussing alleged UFO crash recoveries, “non-human intelligence,” and even so-called “reptilian” alien species that some researchers claim have been secretly studied by the U.S. government for decades. The bombshell discussion comes after the Trump administration’s recent release of declassified UFO/UAP files through a new Pentagon transparency initiative that has already generated massive public attention. The Gateway Pundit previously reported Dr. Hal Puthoff, 89, a Stanford-trained quantum physicist who previously led remote-viewing programs for the CIA and advised the Pentagon’s Advanced Aerospace Weapon System Applications Program...
