Will we allow Koranic culture and sharia law to take Texas too? There’s no denying that large-scale activities taken by any Muslim transplants will likely raise red flags for the American community already there. That’s just what happened to the community originally called EPIC City, for East Plano Islamic Center, now renamed as “The Meadow.” Gov. Greg Abbott and Attorney General Ken Paxton became very suspicious of the planned development and filed several lawsuits, alleging the developers were “implementing Sharia Law and creating a no-go zone for non-Muslims.” While Paxton and Abbott successfully delayed the development, last week a judge...

It's vitriolic because it just encourages the asinine behaviors and reactions in those whose default setting is to be reductive of people,' he added.

Zero. There are currently no European-headquartered public companies with a market capitalization of $1 trillion or more. As of May 2026, the largest European companies by market cap are all well below this threshold (figures are approximate and fluctuate daily): ASML (Netherlands): ~$580–590 billion (the current leader). Roche (Switzerland): ~$320–330 billion. LVMH (France): ~$260–275 billion. Others like SAP (Germany), Novo Nordisk (Denmark), AstraZeneca (UK), etc., are generally in the $200–250 billion range or lower. For context, the global trillion-dollar club is dominated by U.S. tech giants (e.g., Nvidia, Apple, Alphabet/Microsoft in the multi-trillion range), with a few others like Saudi...

With six months until the high-stakes midterm elections, the Democratic Party is struggling to raise money and keep up with its GOP counterparts, leading to frustrations among some donors with Democratic National Committee leadership and its chair Ken Martin. At the end of March, the Republican National Committee outraised the DNC $21.2 million to $11.4 million, according to new reports filed with the Federal Election Commission. The RNC reported having nearly eight times more cash on hand -- $116 million to the DNC’s $13.8 million. In addition, the DNC is a little over $18 million in debt, according to FEC...

Washington — Accused White House Correspondents' Dinner attacker Cole Allen is now facing charges of assaulting a federal officer. Allen was formally indicted Tuesday by a federal grand jury on four charges, including three counts that he was charged with through a criminal complaint last week — attempting to assassinate President Trump and two firearm charges — and a new count of assault on a federal law enforcement officer with a deadly weapon. Federal prosecutors charged Allen in the hours after the attempted attack at the annual press gala in Washington, D.C., but had not presented the charges to a...

The price didn’t just go up. The product went down. This is shrinkflation on steroids. The cost increased. The value didn’t. BRIEFING Grant here. Shrinkflation is everywhere nowadays. It's actually becoming so common that we seem to just almost be throwing up our hands and accepting it. Well, for the most part.... Because this latest video showing what an absolute rip-off the classic McDonald's sundae has become has people pretty darn heated. Let’s break it down. A popular X video shows a woman holding her obnoxiously tiny McDonald’s hot fudge sundae. I mean, it's comically small. It looks like something...

ROW NYC, the once-infamous Manhattan migrant hotel that was a shelter site for nearly three years, quietly reopened to tourists last week. Fresh flowers beautified the front and wheelie suitcases crowded the lobby on Friday as the 1,300-room Midtown property was back offering “modern” rooms and “inviting” stays for a few hundred bucks a night. “When they said that they reopened today I was wondering what are the things they did to fix it because it looks good,” said guest Efrain Santiago, 50. “The room is really clean and neat. I’m on the 24th floor with a great view. The...

Quote = "Hiya kids! Hiya, Hiya!" Good Morning Crypto-FReepers. I see some of the same old faces out there. But that's OK - I like you anyway. Today's quote is a bit silly.

Dark earth, the strange patches of black soil rich in nutrients that cause plants to grow at accelerated rates, while also capturing unusually high amounts of carbon from the air, is one of the Amazon rainforest’s greatest mysteries. Since these patches of dark earth were first discovered by European colonizers in the 1880s, debate has raged over their origins, with ideas ranging from the natural to the artificial. Variants of this dark, nutrient-rich soil have been found in a range of locations around the world, and are most often associated with the accumulation of materials in soil after long periods...

During the 4th-century, a remarkable artifact was produced by Roman artisans that exhibits optical qualities so unique they have baffled scholars for centuries. Known as the Lycurgus Cup, it is one of the most unusual examples of glassworking ever produced by the Roman Empire, as it is made from dichroic glass—a material that appears to exhibit an entirely different coloration when light passes through it—causing it to look green when illuminated from the front but appearing a striking amber-red when illuminated from behind. The artifact’s unique name refers to its depiction of King Lycurgus, who, according to mythology, attempted to...

The IPCC has published a new generation of climate scenarios – and buried in the fine print is a remarkable concession: the extreme warming pathways that dominated climate research, policy, and media coverage for decades were never actually plausible. It took a while to notice because almost no one in mainstream media bothered to report it. “The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has just published the next generation of climate scenarios,” Science policy analyst Roger Pielke Jr. wrote, calling it “big news” that “eliminated the most extreme scenarios that have dominated climate research over much of the past several...

Despite a stream of alarmist headlines, the World Health Organization is emphasizing that the risk to the general public is very low. "This is not the start of a COVID pandemic," said Maria Van Kerkhove, the director of epidemic and pandemic management at the WHO, speaking at a press conference on Thursday. "This is not COVID, this is not influenza. It spreads very, very differently." There are not many cases of human-to-human transmission, so medical professionals and scientists ... believe that hantavirus spreads primarily between people who are showing symptoms and in close contact. between people who are showing symptoms...

A cross-dressing “tenant from hell” has terrorized a Bronx apartment building by wildly waving around weapons, masturbating in a hallway and almost causing a catastrophe when he turned on all his gas burners, according to footage and neighbors. The off-the-rails renter apparently wears an array of wigs when harassing neighbors and hasn’t paid rent in more than a year at the East 214th Street building in the Williamsbridge section of the Bronx, according to the building management company and apartment residents. But management can’t give him the boot just yet as building residents live in fear. “The blonde wig, he...

Former prime minister Naftali Bennett said his new alliance with opposition leader Yair Lapid will hold and enable the opposition bloc to form a long-lasting government to unseat Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, unveiling in a Wednesday interview with The Jerusalem Post his “Israeli Renaissance” plan to bring one million olim (new immigrants) to Israel over the next decade. Bennett spoke to the Post after the recent announcement that his and Lapid’s parties, Yesh Atid and Bennett 2026, will merge into a single list named Together, led by Bennett. The move to run together could reshape the direction of the elections,...
