As Republicans expose fraud in the tens of billions in Medicaid and other welfare programs, Democrats’ response is to... duck. They made it glaringly obvious last week as Sen. Rand Paul chaired a Senate Homeland Security Committee meeting: Nearly all the panel’s Dem members were total no-shows; only Sen. Gary Peters attended at all, and only long enough to ask a few questions before heading for the door. The hearing actually covered two very different fraud topics: - Independent journalist Nick Shirley reviewed his welfare-fraud discoveries, including blatant abuses of Medicaid by New York adult day cares. - Undercover-video specialist...

Zohran Mamdani, the Marxist Twelver Shi’ite mayor of New York City who wants to empty out the prisons, defund the police, and replace cops with social workers, has suddenly become a law-and-order guy. While he wants all manner of thugs, felons, and psychopaths menacing the law-abiding citizens of his once-great city, the callow authoritarian does have one man he is determined to put behind bars: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The New York Post reported Saturday that Mamdani “says he’s still weighing whether he can arrest Benjamin Netanyahu when the Israeli prime minister is scheduled to visit the Big Apple...

Sausalito’s new city manager was arrested early Saturday on suspicion of felony burglary after Marin County sheriff’s deputies responding to a noise complaint found her aboard a yacht that authorities say belonged to someone else. Elaine Forbes told deputies she was having “a bad morning” and insisted they leave what she claimed was her boat, the Marin Independent Journal reported. Forbes, 53, was taken into custody less than three weeks after starting as Sausalito’s top administrative official. The arrest came two days after the Sausalito City Council placed her on administrative leave following a closed-session meeting. Deputies responded to the...

So Trump's speech landed like a tree in the forest with no one listening. What could have made it more viral? I was thinking he could have started it with: "As I am speaking, the FBI is currently arresting hundreds of people connected to voter fraud..."

THE USA look to be strong frontrunners to host the 2038 World Cup following the success of the 2026 tournament. It has been one to remember for the USA as they won a knockout game at a World Cup for the first time since 2002. Their Round of 32 win over Bosnia on Monday night was watched by an average audience of 24 million on Fox. The success of the USMNT has captured the hearts of the nation and yet that is not what is making them frontrunners to host it in 2038. As sports and business content creator Joe...

Tehran has spent decades preparing for — and welcoming — a U.S. ground invasion, a senior Iranian official has claimed, as fresh explosions rocked the region on the eighth day of renewed U.S.-Iran strikes. Seyed Mohammad Marandi, an Iranian American academic identified as a regime "Tehran had just launched a "new missile" while decentralizing and burying its arsenal deep underground to withstand sustained American air campaigns. "The Americans are planning an invasion. I'm not saying it will necessarily happen. I'm not saying it will necessarily happen in the next few days. But they have plans for an invasion," Marandi, a...

An 18-year-old freshman suddenly suffered a life-threatening tear in his aorta on the basketball court, despite having no known history of heart problems.

The towering teenager had just finished watching film with teammates and had not yet begun any physical activity when he started feeling intense chest pain, according to Fresno City College athletic trainer Francisco Gamboa.

A Washington state Democrat hoping to unseat a longtime member of Congress is facing a revolt from within her own party, after reportedly saying she left LGBTQ+ rights off her campaign website because she feared alienating Muslim voters. Seattle Red first reported that Democrat organizations were reconsidering their endorsements of Melissa Chaudhry, a progressive Democrat challenging longtime Rep. Adam Smith, D-Wash., in Washington's 9th Congressional District, after comments she made during an endorsement interview with The Stranger. When asked why her website did not mention LGBTQ+ issues, Chaudhry replied, "because a lot of Muslims do not feel that way, unfortunately,"...

Two appearances by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez this week have reignited criticism from conservatives as speculation continues over whether the New York Democrat could eventually seek the White House. The back-to-back moments quickly spread across social media, with critics questioning both her campaign style and her response to a question about the U.S. Senate. Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., first drew attention while campaigning in Tennessee for Democratic state Rep. Justin Pearson, who is running for Congress in the state’s 9th District. Speaking at a get-out-the-vote event, Ocasio-Cortez urged supporters not to overlook traditionally Republican states. “We can’t afford to leave Tennessee behind, Kentucky...

A Tennessee mother shot and killed a man she found hiding under her 13-year-old daughter’s bed, according to cops — and now she’s facing first-degree murder charges. Kendra Scott was arrested after police found a 20-year-old man dead from a gunshot wound in the back of his head outside her Memphis home just before 2 a.m. Thursday, according to an arrest affidavit obtained by The Post. Her lawyer called the situation, “the worst nightmare of any parent of a 13-year-old girl.” The 36-year-old mother told officers she came home and “saw a dude under my kids’ bed.” “And I did...

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., declined to weigh in on the latest scandal to hit a member of his party, instead focusing on his planned diatribe against President Donald Trump’s primetime address Thursday. The New York Post reported that Sen. Ruben Gallego, D-Ariz., engaged in sexual relationships with at least two Democratic House staffers who did not work for him while he was a member of the House. According to House rules, members are not barred from having relationships with staffers who work outside their office. Sources told the outlet it was believed the relationships happened while the lawmaker...

Like all those musicians who say they formed bands because they bought the first Velvet Underground record, there were at least two generations of photographers who chose their profession because they saw Blow-Up, Michelangelo Antonioni's 1966 so-called "murder mystery" starring David Hemmings as Thomas, an arrogant and successful photographer in what was about to be called "Swinging London". Deputized to stand in for all those photographers is the American Robert Whitman, who recalled in a 2018 interview that "in those days people were very conservative; you couldn't look like this and get a job. I never wanted to wear a...

By now, we have all seen the evidence that the socialist uprising happening in the Democratic Party is fueled mainly by highly educated White voters, and on Saturday, I saw even more evidence of it at a Detroit rally for Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed. It was whiter than a toothpaste ad. Scanning the hundred or so people in line for the event that featured Marxist superstars Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., I saw fewer Black people than you could find at Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse’s restricted beach club in Rhode Island. Outside of the Opera House where...

Desktop Linux has seen a massive surge in popularity in the past few years alone, which, ironically enough, is in no small part thanks to Microsoft. The recent string of Windows hiccups has forced folks to migrate to Linux, and the number seems to be ever-increasing. ... Microsoft has no one to blame but itself for this mess. Windows had all the advantages and the correct formula for success, and being bundled in almost all personal computers certainly helped. Linux, in comparison, had always been a niche “alternative” operating system for hobbyists. Not anymore, though. However, their recent track record...

MINNEAPOLIS — Employees at Kings Road Merch say they never expected their jobs to disappear just hours before contract negotiations were set to begin."This is a place for weirdos and outsiders," said Cesar Esparza, who has worked at the Minneapolis-area merchandise warehouse for 14 years.Kings Road Merch fulfills and ships merchandise for local and national bands. Esparza says the workplace culture changed after Sony acquired the company last July. "Everything went downhill," Esparza said. "Pay. The ability to hire. And just the irresponsibility on Sony's management to even handle any of our discrepancies. They've been completely silent."Inspired by anti-ICE general...

Explanation: A flying saucer from outer space crash-landed in the Utah desert after being tracked by radar and chased by helicopters. The year was 2004, and no space aliens were involved. The saucer, pictured here, was the Genesis sample return capsule, part of a human-made robot Genesis spaceship launched in 2001 by NASA itself to study the Sun. The unexpectedly hard landing at over 300 kilometers per hour occurred because the parachutes did not open as planned. The Genesis mission had been orbiting the Sun collecting solar wind particles that are usually deflected away by Earth's magnetic field. Despite the...

I ripped this off from the CFP website. Headmaster Berbalsingh speaks to the UK's Alliance for Responsible Citizenship (ARC), about three weeks ago. She gives it to everyone with both barrels. This is a video for your friends, pastors, school boards, Congresscritters......EVERYONE. This is the one that needs to go viral because it is a war to save Western Civilization. Summary: Britain's strictest headmistress, Katharine Birbalsingh, argues that the West's moral crisis began with the values we taught our children. She explores how schools, culture, and social media have shaped a generation to see the world through the lens of...
