Dear Annie: My son is getting married in July, and I’m dreading it. The woman he plans to marry is, in my view, a lying, conniving, lazy master manipulator who has worn him down so much he barely seems to care about life anymore. He doesn’t see it, but my husband and I do. He thinks she hung the moon. She’s a complete narcissist. She’s on her phone every waking minute, and doesn’t cook, clean or care for their daughter. My son works all day, then takes care of their home and my granddaughter while she makes excuses. She believes...

We lost a few men. That IS combat. The Iranians have lost thousands and are STILL taunting us. We lose a very SMALL percentage and the communists want us to abandon the conflict. LOOK at the enemy within's tactics: Trying to discourage Americans from necessary conflicts in a needed war in which we must prevail. The leftists here who violently protest ICE lost two "foot soldiers" and more injured and I DO NOT HEAR THE MEDIA, DEMOCRATS OR ANY OF THAT SIDE SECOND-GUESSING THE ACTIONS OF THOSE KILLED OR SUGGESTING THEY SHOULD STOP!!! They are TOTALLY committed to what they...

Yes, it's true, the "globalist elites" have been literally trying to force larva down our throats. They love the idea of us feasting on crickets and cockroach milk instead of normal, healthy food. Alas, even the influence of Big Bug hasn't been enough to convince people to buy mealworm meatballs. Now all the bug factories are closing up! As Vox exclusively reported, "plans to build a large insect farm in Nebraska — a joint project between Tyson Foods, America's largest meat company, and Protix, now the world's second largest insect farming company — are indefinitely on hold."

After complaining for years that Gen Z grads are difficult to work with, bosses are no longer all talk, no action: Now they’re rapidly firing young workers who aren’t up to scratch just months after hiring them.

Intelligent.com, a platform dedicated to helping young professionals navigate the future of work, surveyed nearly 1,000 U.S. business leaders. It found that the class of 2024’s shortcomings are shaping how bosses hire next—and it’s not...

The non-profit White Coat Waste (WCW) has uncovered disturbing evidence of animal abuse at the University of Missouri-Columbia (UMC), where taxpayer dollars are funding barbaric procedures on cats, including former pets sourced from local shelters. According to records obtained by WCW, UMC maintained a colony of homeless cats acquired from Jefferson City, Missouri’s public animal shelter, using them as blood donors in ways that risked anemia and dangerously low blood levels. These cats, many likely lost or abandoned pets because they had microchips, could be confined for up to two years before potentially being euthanized if deemed “medically necessary” rather...

Chris Deluzio (D-PA) said that “the core of that message” Host Jen Psaki asked, “[Y]ou took part in a video message to members of the military…kind of reminding them that they can refuse to obey illegal orders. As you’re watching what is happening now, how does that message apply to what you think the men and women who are being asked to serve — people from the best military in the world are being asked to serve for a war that this administration really hasn’t explained, how does it apply to...
