Editor's note: As founder and editor of The Gateway Pundit I approved of this report. We can not stay silent when we have groups of radicals mocking, joking and laughing about cold-blooded murder of our friends. They want us all dead. We will not be silent. Jim Hoft Editor The Gateway Pundit Casahuga-Lemgruber is reportedly a Class of 2029 student majoring in International Relations and Diplomacy, from Houston, and a graduate of St. Agnes Academy. As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, the student, who introduced herself as “Pamper Baby,” told the crowd she had taken a Plan B that morning,...

Wendy’s could see up to 60 more restaurants closed across the United States through mid-November as one of its largest franchise operators battles bankruptcy, according to USA Today. Meritage Hospitality Group, which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on September 17, has already shuttered 33 restaurants since entering bankruptcy proceedings and could reportedly shut down dozens more by November 13. Meritage previously closed 60 underperforming locations before filing for bankruptcy. Reports differ on whether the 33 closures since the filing count toward the up-to-60 figure, so the total could reach roughly 120 or more. The restaurant company operated 314 Wendy’s...

Hey everyone, former President Obama is tired of all the division in the country. He is tired of being angry and wants friendship and neighborliness. Who wants to tell him how we got here? Maybe someone could remind him about the time he told his supporters that he wanted them to argue with their neighbors and get in their faces. Or the time he told voters that he wanted them angry. Or the time he told people to argue about healthcare at Thanksgiving and Christmas. Or the time he told people to vote out of revenge. He is quite possibly...

What began as an extraordinary opportunity to spend retirement exploring the world has turned into a financial and logistical nightmare. A residential cruise ship promising years of international travel has abruptly suspended operations, leaving more than 200 passengers, many of them Americans, searching for accommodations thousands of miles from home.

SUGAR LAND, Texas (KTRK) -- A youth softball game in Sugar Land turned violent Saturday, leaving one father hospitalized with serious injuries, a grandfather injured and two parents facing criminal charges, according to police and court records. The altercation occurred during a game involving two 12-year-old select softball teams at Imperial Park. According to charging documents, Kiarious Marshun Hall and his wife Jazmine Hall were both at their daughter's game when the dispute began. Their team was Illusions Gold 2033. Investigators said the dispute began over Hall's behavior during opposing team at-bats. Hall told officers another man from Timbergrove Thunder...

It is not misinformation, disinformation, or a crime to echo Democrats’ longheld view that election machines are vulnerable to manipulation. The Democrats’ leading practitioner of weaponizing the government to attack political opponents, Marc Elias, recently called for my prosecution because I wrote on X that President Trump should exercise existing federal authority to make sure that electronic voting machines are not hacked or compromised in the midterm elections. I argued on X that those who are demanding that President Trump declare a national emergency regarding the voting machines are asking him to do something he’s already done. On May 15,...

Anyone can add information to the pages of Wikipedia, even without an account. However, senior volunteer editors have a tight grip on what remains. Oftentimes, information is removed minutes later if they don’t like it.If that information comes from The Gateway Pundit, Newsmax, Breitbart, Media Research Center, O’Keefe, and others on the right, it will likely be removed.Wikipedia editors have determined that almost every conservative news outlet is unreliable and disallowed their content in some fashion.In fact, The Gateway Pundit finished a study on this, and it is worse than we thought.LEFT SOURCES ALLOWED: 37 of 75 reviewed (49%).RIGHT SOURCES...

Federal investigators found evidence during the Obama administration suggesting that Rep. Ilhan Omar's 2009 marriage to a man suspected of being her brother was intended to help him obtain a green card, but the case stalled chiefly because prosecutors concluded the suspected offense fell outside a five-year statute of limitations, according to a new report.The FBI and Department of Homeland Security investigated the marriage in the summer of 2016, current and former officials told The New York Times in a report published Thursday.The officials' account challenges Omar's characterization of the earlier inquiry as having debunked allegations that she married her...

The FDA will newly exclude from donating blood some straight people who engage in anal sex, despite 30 years of evidence that including them has not posed a risk of HIV getting into the blood supply. ________________________________________

King Tides are a seasonal recurrence. Also seasonal in recent years are the attempts to explain the flooding caused by those tides as being due to rising sea levels. Among the media outlets at the forefront this year with the rising sea levels shtick is USA Today as you can see in this Monday story by their Climate & Environment correspondent Dinah Voyles Pulver, "Record high tides slam US coasts. Here’s what’s driving them."Most of what Pulver says is "driving" the high tides makes sense:

On Tuesday, the parents of Bowen Wan, a 31-year-old Amazon software engineer with epilepsy, sued OpenAI in California state court, alleging ChatGPT effectively practiced medicine without a license by designing a dangerous medication tapering schedule.The lawsuit alleges ChatGPT coached Wan to sidestep her doctors while tapering off her anti-seizure medication, even advising her to lie to medical examiners; Wan died from sudden unexpected death in epilepsy in February.In chat logs reviewed by the Times, the chatbot advised Wan to "accept the 5mg tablet, but you know in your heart that it is for cutting the dose," while dismissing her head...

Pilots flying over Ohio contacted air traffic control after spotting a strange object near their plane, only to be told nothing was registering on radar.An account posted to the National UFO Reporting Center (NUFORC) on October 26 described a silver, pill-shaped UFO that appeared almost stationary as the aircraft approached.One pilot captured a photograph of the object, which he described during a follow-up interview with NUFORC investigator Ben Hansen. The encounter occurred on August 16.‘The surface was silver and highly reflective, like pure polished metal,’ reads the investigator’s report, which identified the pilot only as ‘J.’‘J described the UAP as...

Basketball player Sophie Cunningham waved the checkered flag at the Formula 1 Grand Prix auto race, and the left had a cow. So-called “progressives” are ignorant, bitter, nasty, wannabe tyrants who contribute nothing to the society that they so wish to destroy. And nothing escapes their claw-like grasp and fetid commentary, no matter how mundane and benign. WNBA basketball player Sophie Cunningham, for example, causes them to explode into fits of demented rage, seemingly by simply existing. This is largely because she is white, attractive, likely heterosexual, and believes that men should not be allowed into women’s locker-rooms and bathrooms...

The Justice Department told a federal court on Tuesday, October 27, that the search warrant used at Rep. Ilhan Omar‘s Washington home had been only partly carried out and that prosecutors expected to fully execute it “in short order.” A public charging decision would come after that, according to the filing. The redacted 47-page document opposed requests from news outlets to unseal the warrant records. Prosecutors asked the court to deny those requests without prejudice, allowing the outlets to refile once the search ended and a charging decision became public. No charges against Omar had been announced. What the disclosure...

With just five days to go before the midterms, President Trump and other Republicans are on a campaign blitz. President Trump was in Chillicothe, Ohio, last night for a rally. Outside, Trump supporters clashed with leftists, and things turned violent. Video circulating on social media shows the moment police realize a Trump supporter was stabbed, and that the weapon — described as possibly a pocket knife with an orange hilt) was still in the victim's back. (Editor's note: this video contains strong language, viewer discretion is advised)

On El Hierro Island in Spain, they set out to build an electricity system powered only by wind, with backup from a pumped-storage hydroelectric plant. The relevant statistics for El Hierro are: average electricity demand: 5 MW; nameplate capacity of the wind turbines: 11.5 MW (i.e., 2.3x “overbuild” compared to average usage); storage capacity of the pumped storage system: 70 MWh (i.e., 14 hours of average usage). The operator of the facility has provided eight years of operating data for the system. I reported on the results in my last post on October 23. In summary, the wind/storage system provided...

A new European pilot fatigue report says more than three out of four pilots experienced a microsleep in the cockpit over the previous month. Read the survey device, though, and it also counts pilots who were fighting to keep their eyes open. That’s not good! But it’s not actually the same thing. What’s useful is that it helps us understand when flying becomes fatiguing, why a legal schedule can still be a bad schedule, and where American pilot rules still fall short. What The Survey Actually Asked The original is A fatigue survey of European Pilots – 2026, prepared by...

It still leads rivals MS NOW and CNN by wide margins, however. ======================================================================= In the “two things can be true” category: Fox News still holds sizable ratings leads in cable news over CNN and MS NOW. It also suffered the largest year-to-year ratings drop in the month before an election in the past 10 years. Nielsen ratings for October show Fox News averaging 1.68 million viewers in primetime and 1.01 million for the full day. Both are comfortably ahead of MS NOW (925,000 primetime, 588,000 full day) and CNN (598,000, 402,000). In the key news demographic of adults 25-54, things...

Once socialism is embedded in our laws and institutions, the march to communism begins. Imagine you own an apartment building and need to sell it. The mortgage comes due, insurance premiums keep climbing, repairs cannot wait, and you have found a willing buyer. You have negotiated a price and are ready to close. Then New York City tells you to wait. Your financial obligations do not wait. Your buyer may not wait. But under New York City’s Community Opportunity to Purchase Act, known as COPA, the government can insert a lengthy process between you and the sale of your own...

Alaska’s Republican governor announced early Thursday he was ordering an investigation into whether members of Democrat Mary Peltola’s Senate campaign should face criminal charges following the revelation that they recruited a candidate with the same name as GOP Sen. Dan Sullivan in a bid to siphon votes away from the incumbent. After the plot was revealed in a Wednesday New York Times report, Gov. Mike Dunleavy described it as “an organized effort to manipulate Alaska’s elections by recruiting candidates—including one with the same name as an incumbent U.S. Senator—to deliberately confuse voters and misdirect their votes.” “I am therefore directing...
