Indiana carried out its first execution of the year early Thursday after lawyers for the condemned man failed in their bid to stop it, despite new details emerging about the state’s secretive process of obtaining lethal injection drugs. Jeffrey Weisheit, 50, was put to death at Indiana State Prison shortly after midnight for the 2010 murders of two young children in a house fire, state officials said. He had no last words and was pronounced dead 45 minutes later. The state does not generally allow media witnesses to attend, and Weisheit’s legal team could not immediately be reached for comment...

(Nov. 5, 2026 / JNS) Israeli Ambassador to the United Nations Danny Danon pushed back on Wednesday against attempts to blame the Jewish state for the Iran war and rising oil prices. His remarks, made in an interview with i24News, came after U.S. Vice President JD Vance cited the conflict and U.S.-Israel relations in explaining Republican losses in the midterm elections. “I think it’s unfortunate that many made the link between rising prices, mainly oil prices, and the situation here in Israel,” Danon said. “The decision to attack Iran was the decision of the United States. It wasn’t our decision,”...

The Nasdaq Composite plummeted on Thursday, erasing the sharp gains from the previous session, as investors continued to rotate away from technology stocks and into more defensive areas of the market. The tech-heavy Nasdaq declined 4.9% and dipped into correction territory, trading more than 10% below a record set last month. The S&P 500 was down 3.2%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average shed 1,136 points, or 2.1%, as gains in stocks such as Chevron and Johnson & Johnson were not enough to spare the 30-stock index from the tech selling spree. The Dow erased more than half of its advance...

As global tensions reach boiling point, fears are never too far away that World War 3 could break out at any point. A major conflict is likely to bring conscription, the official term for when a country imposes mandatory military service on the public. The UK Government extended the age bracket for eligible call-ups to the Army Reserves earlier this year, and some Brits understood that to be a reaction to the current worldwide unrest. With Vladimir Putin and Russia warning that direct nuclear strikes are "reality" and "not a scare tactic", western leaders are on red alert. Experts are...

Democrats are now poised to take control of Congress by wide margins — and a critical driver of their success has been voter fury about how the war in Iran has driven up the cost of fuel. Before the war, about one fifth of the world's oil passed through the Strait of Hormuz. As the war throttled that waterway, the price of oil rose: A barrel of Brent crude cost about $70 in late February, spent months hovering around the $110 mark, and is now close to $95. That's driven up the price of everything that's refined from crude. A...

Longtime Donald Trump ally, childhood friend from New York Military Academy, and prominent Florida attorney Peter Ticktin sat down with The Gateway Pundit to deliver a stark warning about what Americans can expect the moment radical Democrats seize control of the House and Senate on January 3, 2027. Ticktin, who just scored a major courtroom victory last week when a Florida federal judge tossed former Dominion executive Eric Coomer’s defamation lawsuit against Patrick Byrne, outlined three scenarios for the just-concluded 2026 midterms and laid out what he says is the Democrats’ real plan if they take both chambers by a...

It didn’t take long for Democrats to drop the mask and reveal that they have no real intention of delivering on the “affordability” promises that filled their campaign ads. Their real agenda? Endless political witch hunts and pointless impeachments. It’s no secret that Democrats are downright giddy at the prospect of retaking full control of Congress. But what they seem to be most excited about is using their subpoena and investigatory powers to harass and frustrate not just President Donald Trump, but the entire executive branch, Big Tech executives, Republican donors, and anyone else who gets in their way. As...

It is amazing how accurate the pre-election national polling proved to be. From ChatGPT, although not completely final yet, it showed nationally, the democrats got 55% of the vote compared to 43.6% for Republicans. That is a real landslide using the rule of thumb saying 10% margin is a landslide.Pre-election polling the day prior showed a projection of democratic lead of 8-9%. That is within the usual 3% margin of error, so the national polling was pretty darn accurate--the only error was that they UNDERESTIMATED the democrat vote, not the Republican! So remember that the next time everyone, and I...

Mississippi U.S. Senate race hangs on thousands of ballots Scott Colom widens his lead over Cindy Hyde-Smith in Mississippi Senate race "I'm from the Mississippi Delta, that's the poorest area in our country, so for me having a Democrat, specifically Scott Colom, benefits the area that I grew up in," Pinkins said.

War Secretary Pete Hegseth may face an impeachment vote before the next Congress is seated, as some Republicans, led by Rep. Thomas Massie, are planning to vote on an impeachment resolution after a stunning midterm loss that is widely attributed to the Iran war. Massie previously introduced articles of impeachment against Hegseth back in September. CNN is reporting that some GOPers are expecting the latest impeachment resolution to pass in the House as Republican lawmakers turn on Hegseth. Trump has defended Hegseth, telling reporters on Tuesday that he is not considering firing him. "No, I think he's doing a very...

When Islamic terrorists strike, when there’s an active shooter or a riot in progress, the elite members of the NYPD’s Strategic Response Group are there as the tip of the spear.

Created in response to the Bataclan massacre carried out by Islamic terrorists in Paris, members of the SRG receive advanced counterterrorism training, have special equipment and are ready to jump into action. SRG replaced the NYPD’s...

"A population of weak, unhealthy, uninformed and dependent people is a hell of a lot easier to control than a population of strong, healthy, educated and self-reliant people. Your responsibility is to become the exact opposite of everything they want for you to the best of your abilities. Your REAL best. In my opinion that’s our obligation as Americans."

Reality TV dating show “Married at First Sight UK” has been axed in outrage after former cast members were accused of raping the women they were matched with.

The broadcaster’s CEO, Priya Dogra, apologized to the women for “the distress they have clearly felt,” according to a news release. The show — where singles are matched with strangers and meet for...
