The Mexican Navy announced on Thursday that it has begun a search-and-rescue mission in the Caribbean Sea for two sailboats carrying "humanitarian aid" to Cuba. Reuters describes the vessels as "sailboats" and says they left Isla Mujeres, in the Mexican Caribbean state of Quintana Roo, last week. They did not arrive in Havana as scheduled on Tuesday or Wednesday. The journey is about 300 to 350 miles, depending on the route. Combined, the two boats had nine people on board, including eight adults and a four-year-old child. The Mexican navy said Thursday that it was searching for two boats transporting...

Part 1 of a five-part Fox News Digital series investigation follows the money that created the "Revolutionary Base" for a transnational network of organizations allegedly waging cognitive warfare on U.S. citizens on behalf of the Chinese Communist Party. As far-left American activists flood Cuba to support its flailing communist regime, U.S. officials have opened a sprawling investigation into an anti-America, pro-China nonprofit network forged during a wedding celebration in late February 2017, off Runaway Bay on Jamaica’s northern coast. There, beneath a canopy of palm trees, an elite cadre of activists, intellectuals, celebrities, political organizers and comrades in a global...

Cuba’s communist dictatorship may be living on borrowed time as the island’s power grid crumbles — but the Democratic Socialists of America is making “solidarity” with the regime its issue of the moment. On Friday, the DSA sent 20 of its members there as part of the lefty “Nuestra América Convoy,” aiming to “show the world that Cuba is under siege, but they are not alone.” They relaxed in luxury Havana hotels and rode in air-conditioned buses to meetings with Communist Party officials. A wrecked economy and a grim 67-year history of repression that’s made more than a million Cubans...

Socialists from the US and Europe put on a concert in Cuba — just as the country was plunged into third blackout this month Saturday. A convoy of socialists — including streamer Hasan Piker, the daughter of Rep. Ilhan Omar, members of Code Pink and lefty Irish hip-hop group Kneecap — is in Cuba with the goal of supporting Cuba’s oppressive communist regime. But Piker and others have been dogged by criticism for staying in a 5-star hotel in Havana, and Kneecap played a concert in the capital city as the rest of the nation of 11 million people faced...

On Sunday, I wrote about how Code Pink and a bunch of other worthless commies went to Cuba after they put together the "Nuestra América Convoy," which describes itself as a humanitarian group but is really just some sort of anti-Trump, pro-Cuban regime operation. Cuba's "president," Miguel Díaz-Canel, rolled out the red carpet at a convention center, and then the group stayed in a five-star well-lit hotel. I say "well-lit' because no one else on the island has power, yet oddly this hotel and convention center do. The convoy also threw themselves a little concert — again, with plenty of...

The news just keeps getting more disgusting from the Sandalista Spring Break crowd, descending on Cuba to show 'solidarity' as President Trump halts its "free" oil from Venezuela, and creating a boatload of misery for Cuba's socialism-impoverished locals. It wasn't just gawking at people's poverty from state safari-style tour buses while singing 'Guantamanera' at them, which I wrote about here. Alberto de la Cruz @albertodelacruz "This is how the foreign communists visiting Cuba get around...like they're on a safari through a theme park. Then they ask us to resist in the name of their criminal ideology. They're all immoral." It...

When anti-regime protests spread like wildfire throughout Iran in mid-October of 2022, the regime’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei was quick to lay the blame on the usual foreign suspects. “I say explicitly that these riots and this insecurity were a design by the U.S. and the occupying, fake Zionist regime and those who are paid by them,” he told a class of cadets at a police college in Tehran. He suggested that the ultimate goal of the U.S. and Israel was regime change in Iran. This elicited a response on Twitter from Iranian rapper Hichkas, who defended foreign support for...

Former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) on Sunday said President Trump could attempt to use a national emergency declaration to cancel midterm elections. Greene said she could “see it” happening in a post on the social platform X made in response to a post from radio host Shannon Joy.

In the dark of the night, 10 minutes before President Donald Trump even announced that the U.S. and Israel had attacked Iran, a network of U.S. nonprofits aligned with China, Russia and Tehran activated foot soldiers to hit America's streets. Groups funded by Neville Roy Singham, a Shanghai-based, American-born tech tycoon, which regularly parrot messaging from America's adversaries, swung into action even as the initial bombs were dropping. The nearly instantaneous response was the latest salvo in an information war on the U.S., with foot soldiers called upon to converge in protests and echo anti-U.S. talking points. At 2:34 a.m....

Former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad — a polarizing hardliner who became the face of Tehran’s nuclear defiance and incendiary anti-Israel rhetoric — was reportedly killed in Israeli airstrikes during Saturday’s strikes inside Iran. A report by the Israeli media outlet Ma’ariv stated that Ahmadinejad was under house arrest at the time and was killed in a targeted strike on his home. Ahmadinejad served as Iran’s sixth president from 2005 to 2013, rising from relative obscurity as mayor of Tehran to defeat establishment figure Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani in a surprise 2005 runoff. Critics at home and abroad described him as a...

Fox News is reporting that the coalition of anti-Trump nonprofits that have been leading the Anti-ICE protests notified its network to mobilize against Operation Epic Fury.They knew about the strikes even before they were announced, likely because they were notified by their Chinese Communist Party allies overseas.

We wrote recently about the ongoing effort by Marxists in the United States to raise money on behalf of the Communist government in Cuba. That effort continues. Meanwhile, the same folks, in league with a whole raft of other radical leftist groups, are also working on sending a “flotilla” to Havana’s aid. “A growing coalition of international organizations, including Progressive International, The People’s Forum, CODEPINK, and allied movements across the Americas and beyond is coming together to launch the Nuestra América Flotilla to Cuba in March, 2026, a humanitarian and solidarity mission to the island at a moment of deep...

Marjorie Taylor Greene: "All of you MAGA influencers and the rest mocking the seriousness of women who were trafficked and raped as teenagers look like cult fools. Good luck trying to get women to vote for Republicans in the midterms you insensitive clows. The Republican Party already has a woman voting problem. Keep mocking those of us who take rape and pedophilia seriously and demand accountability for corruption."

The State Department has just reported to Congress that the far left group ‘Code Pink’ is linked to the Chinese Communist Party. This should come as a surprise to no one. Code Pink began making a nuisance of themselves during the presidency of George W. Bush. They portrayed themselves as an anti-war group. Of course, once Obama became president and continued most of Bush’s foreign policy and the wars, they became curiously silent. Some of them were even guests at Obama’s inauguration. Now that Trump, a Republican, is president again, they are back to their old tactics of showing up...

The segment features Fox News Digital investigations editor Asra Nomani appearing on Varney & Co.. She discusses an alleged far-left activist network based in Minnesota, which she claims has escalated activities against the federal government. Key points from the discussion include: The network reportedly involves self-described socialist and Marxist-Leninist groups. These groups allegedly provide guides for tracking, monitoring, and harassing federal agents. Organizations mentioned include the People's Forum, Party for Socialism and Liberation, and Breakthrough News. Funding is tied to American-born billionaire Neville Roy Singham, who now lives in Shanghai and is reportedly under investigation for alleged interference in U.S....

You know what’s better than firefighting? Fire prevention. Minneapolis is in chaos. Large, well-organized battalions of anti-ICE activists are tracking federal officers and doing their level best to prevent them from enforcing the law and deporting illegal aliens. Citizens supporting ICE are being beaten in the streets. The Governor and many other elected officials are standing one step away from open insurrection and sedition. And, right now, as you read this, the groundwork is being laid to make all that look like merely a preamble. The anti-ICE activists and their allies, including individuals tied directly to Communist China, are getting...

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) has left the building. She quit, though the Georgia Republican and former Trump stalwart waited until her congressional pension vested. Greene has done a 180-degree turn on Trump, opposing him on the Epstein Files, Gaza, and the Big Beautiful Bill. She’s been on an apology tour, was a guest on The View, and is doing everything she can to shed her firebrand conservative image. Why? It might be because Trump’s team killed her US Senate ambitions. But the latest allegation is serious: did MTG tip off CodePink about the president’s dinner in the capital last...

The relationship between President Trump and former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene grew so poisonous that the White House told the Secret Service that Greene may have tipped off Code Pink protesters about his surprise visit last fall to a D.C. restaurant she recommended, two sources on Trump's team tell Axios. That episode — which involved a chaotic confrontation between anti-war activists and Trump — embarrassed the president and intensified concerns in the White House about his safety, a year after he narrowly escaped an assassination attempt. Why it matters: Trump aides view the Joe's Seafood debacle as a point of...

WASHINGTON - Miami's Jesús Soto supports Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez's vision of ''participatory democracy.'' Valerie Pusch of Chicago backs Chávez because of his policies on behalf of the poor. And they say so loudly, as heads of their local Bolivarian Circles -- among the dozen or so U.S. copies of the groups Chávez has set up throughout his country to mobilize Venezuelans on behalf of his socialist ``revolution.'' Even as Chávez attacks President Bush as his sworn nemesis, his government is running a strong campaign to curry favor with U.S. citizens through leftist grass-roots groups, paid lobbyists and public relations...

Several beauty trends for conservative women have emerged this year, some with a certain underlying level of humor—from the so-called Mar-a-Lago face to the "conservative girl" makeup. What all these trends have in common under the umbrella of MAGA beauty is an emphasis on hyperfeminine attire—sky-high stilettos, fitting skirts, bouncy hair, full-coverage makeup, and conspicuous plastic surgery. Greene said that while she had not previously spoken up against these trends, she disliked them. “I believe how women in leadership present themselves sends a message to younger women,” she told The New York Times. In an interview with The New York...
