(WHTM) – U.S. Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) is reacting Saturday morning to the United States and Israel’s attack on Iran. The attack, which reportedly appeared to target the compound home to Iran’s 86-year-old Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in downtown Tehran, comes as President Donald Trump claimed Iran has continued to develop its nuclear program and plans to develop missiles to reach the U.S. “President Trump has been willing to do what’s right and necessary to produce real peace in the region,” said Fetterman on social media. “God bless the United States, our great military, and Israel.”

I am thinking about doing a podcast on different topics. Here is an example called "Tips on Guitar Playing" that I would address. Are there any points missed that you can add? Tips On Guitar Playing 1. When you buy a guitar, get one that feels comfortable over one that looks great. 2. When choosing a guitar in a music store, let the guitar choose you. Guitars are like women, and if they like you, they will do everything to help you play the music. If they don’t like you, you will have a hard time trying to play them....

Here’s something nearly everyone can agree on: healthcare in the United States is too expensive. Private health insurance premiums rise inexorably well above the rate of inflation, and so do the costs of government subsidized healthcare like Medicare and Medicaid. And if you face a big medical issue without insurance, the bills could well come to more than you could ever pay. So what’s the answer? To the Left, it’s easy: a “single payer” system, sometimes called “Medicare for all.” In simple terms, the federal government pays for all the medical expenses of everybody. The money comes out of the...

Washington — Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced Friday that the Pentagon would be canceling troops' attendance at graduate programs at some of the nation's top universities, calling them "woke breeding grounds of toxic indoctrination." "Today, just like we did with Harvard, I am ordering the complete and immediate cancellation of all Department of War attendance at institutions like Princeton, Columbia, MIT, Brown, Yale and many others, starting next academic year, 2026-2027," Hegseth said in a video statement. "We cannot and will not continue to send our most capable officers, senior officers, into graduate programs that undermine the very values they...

Back again for another weekly Reaction vid.. Was going to do one on the reactions about "White Rabbit", but it was WAY over the listener's heads (the younger ones have NO idea about the draft and Vietnam)... So.. replaced it with a song a little more upbeat.

Nazism and Bolshevism—the ideological world scourges of the twentieth century, threatening the complete destruction of Europe—may be buried as historical phenomena. However, the world does not stand still. And the enemies of the “open society,” as described by Karl Raimund Popper, never rest for long; they are always on the move, plotting and calculating. Some of them are skilled at ingratiating themselves and pose as humanists, pretentiously speaking on behalf of the “victims” of the world, but they are impostors, to be sure—and totalitarians at heart. Whatever the rhetoric, their ultimate goal is invariably to overthrow the West. As a...

When politics becomes scorched earth, it is the nation itself that burns. I was raised to believe that democracy came with duties as well as rights. You voted. You accepted the outcome. You argued your case, made your peace with defeat when it came, and waited for the next election. Politics was competitive, sometimes bruising, but it was not meant to be an existential threat. The opposition’s role was to hold the government to account, not to weaken the country for political gain. That older civic instinct now feels rather quaint. In theory, the idea of the “loyal opposition” remains...

PHILADELPHIA -- There is an unique and historic way America's 250th birthday will be marked in Philadelphia. "America's Time Capsule" will be buried on July 4 at Independence National Historical Park near Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell. It will remain sealed for 250 years, until 2276. The America250 Commission, who is behind the project, describes it as a bell jar designed to create an air pocket and help prevent water intrusion underground. It is expected to include items from all 50 states, Washington, D.C., and five U.S. territories, as well as contributions from Congress, the Supreme Court and the...

Iran’s president said on Saturday the country is facing a full-scale confrontation with the United States, Israel, and Europe, describing the pressure campaign against Tehran as more complex and damaging than the Iran–Iraq war. “In my view, we are in an all-out war with the United States, Israel, and Europe; they do not want our country to stand on its own feet,” Masoud Pezeshkian said in an interview with the Supreme Leader’s official website.He said the current war is worse than the Iraq war in the 1980s. “If one understands it properly, this war is far more complex and more...

An animal will chew its own leg off to escape a trap. Likewise, even a corporation as historically woke as Target will pay whatever it costs to escape its downtown Minneapolis headquarters as the area swirls down a maelstrom of moonbattery into ruin. Via Newsmax: For nearly five years, almost one million square feet of former Target office space in downtown Minneapolis — where the retail giant is headquartered — have sat largely vacant, even as Target continued paying rent, The Minnesota Star Tribune reports. The George Floyd race riots presumably played a role in the area’s second largest employer...

The Roman ideology of slavery is not racialized. It's not like the Romans think that the Greeks or the Germans are like some fundamentally separate kind of human that justifies their exploitation. The Roman ideology of slavery is really rooted in the law of property and status. So they think that slaves are people who've been conquered and rather than killed, they've been spared and they've been sold into the condition of being somebody else's property. And this seems to mentally explain to them where their slave system comes from and why it's justifiable. It's sort of like disturbing in...
