Room full of women on the Oprah show starts cheering after a doctor says that black female child murderers need to be supported too, not just the white child murderers like Lindsay Clancy. "I want us to have the same passion for [female child murderers] who don't look like Lindsay." "There are women of color sitting around this country in prisons for [murdering their children]. I just wanna remind us to have the pink shirts and the energy for them as well." Totally insane.

In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate,” a terrorist declares on the Flight 93 cockpit recording. That’s followed by the sounds of the terrorists assaulting a passenger. “Please don’t hurt me,” he pleads. “Oh God.” As the passengers rush the cabin, a Muslim terrorist proclaims, “In the name of Allah.” As New York firefighters struggle up the South Tower with 100 pounds of equipment on their backs trying to save lives until the very last moment, the Flight 93 passengers push toward the cockpit. The Islamic hijackers call out, “Allahu Akbar.” Mohammed Atta had advised his...

Rep. Al Green (D-TX) held a press conference Thursday demanding that transgender immigrants in Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody receive hormones and other specialized medical care. Green appeared alongside representatives of the Houston LGBTQ+ Political Caucus and the Montrose Center at a press conference addressing what they called the “maltreatment of transgender immigrants.” During the event, Green read from a letter addressed to Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin raising concerns about the treatment of transgender detainees. “Dear Secretary Mullin, I write to express my deep concern over reports of hazardous conditions for transgender immigrants in Immigration and Customs Enforcement...

It starts with the generals and goes straight through political waste and fraud in his ballooned-up budget and ends with a demoralized force of soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines. That will be Pete Hegseth’s legacy when he’s gone, and it will take at least a decade and probably more to repair the damage he has done to our nation’s security. The New York Times reported last week that Hegseth “has fired or blocked the promotions of more than 80 generals and admirals.” The Times called it a “purge,” and that’s what it is. Ten percent of the military’s high-ranking leadership...

A fifth juror is speaking out on the Lindsay Clancy case and he is giving even more color to the jury deliberations that produced the stunning mistrial. After RedState's Bob Hoge gave an excellent breakdown on the fourth juror coming forward, this provides further context for what really looked like a coordinated effort to badger the holdout into changing his mind. Nick Dargie is now the fifth juror to publicly discuss the explosive deliberations following last week's mistrial. Dargie was one of the two male jurors who joined all nine women in voting to find Clancy not guilty by reason...

The government of Mexico announced that a member of the country’s National Guard, who published a video last week claiming his bosses and colleagues were working with local drug cartels, was found dead along with two other victims. The incident took place in the coastal state of Guerrero, where National Guardsman Eduardo Perez Bustos published a video in which he identifies himself and revealed that many of his colleagues there worked for a local cartel known as Los Tlacos. In the video, Perez Bustos claimed the troops were paid about $100,000 pesos (roughly $5,900 USD) every two weeks to investigate...

Elon Musk took the spotlight at the Venice Film Festival on Tuesday. Well, not in person! But he and his influence took center stage as filmmaker Alex Gibney discussed his new doc, simply called Musk, during a press conference around lunchtime.The film about the owner of X and CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, world-premiering in the Italian fest's Venice Open -- Out of Competition program, comes from producers Jigsaw Productions (Gibney, Jessie Deeter, Erin Edeiken), Closer Media (Zhang Xin), Anonymous Content (Nick Shumaker, Jessica Grimshaw) and Double Agent (Dana O'Keefe)...A couple of questions focused on the tech mogul's support for...

Seattle Interim Police Chief Andre Sayles raised eyebrows on Monday by using the term “trigger-pullers” instead of calling violent criminals “shooters.” Sayles’ sanitized choice of words smacks of his boss Mayor Katie Wilson’s own soft-on-crime, leftist attitudes. “Working with business owners, increasing patrols, bike patrols, working with our community response group and our gun violence reduction unit as well, looking at ways to where we can identify individuals that are known — we call them trigger pullers in our community,” Sayles said. “Identifying them, making sure that we’re putting cases on those individuals, working with King County Prosecutor’s Office to...

On September 3, a House Oversight subcommittee politely asked Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass to sit before them and give testimony about alleged “waste, fraud and abuse” involving more than $1 billion in federal homelessness funding funneled through the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA). I made a prediction at the time: The $64,000 question is: will she show? My guess is no — the mayor will conveniently find she’s scheduled to attend an important event in Ghana or something. If she does, however, you can bet I’ll plop down on the couch with a can of cold beverage and...

The family of 19-year-old Karmelo Anthony is trying to raise $250,000 to fund his appeal after he stabbed 17-year-old Austin Metcalf to death during a high school track meet in Frisco, Texas. A jury convicted Anthony for murder in June, but he has since appealed and claimed he cannot afford an attorney, Fox News reported Sunday. The outlet noted that as the family is seeking more money, there have been questions about what happened to the nearly $634,000 they already raised. During a recent news conference in Dallas where the family and attorneys spoke about the new fundraiser, an NBC...

Federal authorities apprehended several illegal aliens amid an investigation into alleged fraudulent use of stolen identities and Social Security numbers in Tennessee. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) provided Border Hawk with photographs and details on the suspects, who were arrested on Aug. 4. All three individuals are Guatemalan nationals who were already under final orders of removal from the U.S. Magdalena Gomez-Garcia is accused of stealing the identity of a New York resident and using it to work for a local employer in Tennessee. The victim realized the wages were being attributed to her Social Security number, forcing her to...

The federal judge handling the legal battle over new U.S. Postal Service mail ballot rules extended her block of the rules for the November midterm elections in an order issued on Friday, again finding them likely unlawful. Judge Indira Talwani's temporary order, which had been set to expire on Sept. 10, is now in place indefinitely unless a higher court allows the Trump administration to put the rules into effect. The judge found that immediate implementation of the rules this close to the November election, prompted by President Donald Trump's executive order aimed at tightening access to mail ballots, "threatens...

Sen. Ted Cruz argues that the Democratic Party is being taken over by what he describes as “Islamists and Marxists” who “hate America.”

“Never forget where we came from. I will remember this for as long as I am alive. I thought I was going to get called back into service but I didn’t. God bless our troops and god bless all the hero’s from that day,” Alderman Mike Adkins of Quincy, Illinois posted in commemoration of the upcoming 25th anniversary of the Islamic terrorist attacks on America. One of his posted images included a billboard favoring President Trump’s immigration ban noting that “19 Muslim immigrants killed 2977 Americans” on September 11, 2001. The Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR), which was named...

Thursday night, New Orleans. I have flown in from Los Angeles for work and am walking off the jet bridge, thinking about dinner, when 15 men in vests coalesce around me. I have never been arrested before. Even they find it strange, because I am British, and I am in Balenciaga, and I am ever so nice about it all. They take my belt, wallet, every piece of identification, my rosary and Missal, cash. They put me in chains. Real chains. Every man they arrest, whatever he has done, ends up garlanded in steel like this: wincing, hopping, clattering. It...

It didn’t happen all at once, but the timelines and the new document dumps paint a disturbing picture of what we knew would appear on the canvas long before Trump’s second presidency and the disclosures that exposed the whole deep state circus. We have former presidents, including Obama, ordering intelligence assessments to thread in Russian collusion nonsense; a former CIA director who lied about how the Steele Dossier, the document responsible for this hoax, was used in analyzing the intelligence; and the media’s incessant and destructive crusade to make this ruse legitimate. They failed because there was no evidence, and...

U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres and U.N. General Assembly President Annalena Baerbock are under fire for honoring a Hamas terrorist leader who worked for schools funded by the notorious U.N. Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA). The U.N. refused to apologize on Tuesday, shrugging off the terrorist’s inclusion as an innocent mistake. The U.N. held an annual service in June to memorialize employees who died during the previous year. The event, which was attended by Guterres and Baerbock, featured the lighting of a candle dubbed the “eternal flame" while the names of 136 fallen U.N. employees were read to the sound of...

After winning the Michigan Senate Democrat primary by falsely accusing his opponent of working for Israel, Abdul El-Sayed headed for a Pakistan Independence Day celebration. At the Pakistan Association of America, El-Sayed spoke out for ousted Pakistani dictator Imran ‘Taliban’ Khan notorious for his persecution of Christians and for harboring Osama bin Laden. The PAA had formerly been headed by Asad Malik who appears to have met in person with Khan and who also served as a board member at the Pakistani American Public Affairs Committee (PAKPAC): not to be confused with the American-Pakistani Political Action Committee (APPAC) which was...

Left-wing voting organizations are racing back to Obama-appointed U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani in a renewed attempt to shut down President Donald Trump’s mail-ballot integrity rules before the November midterms. On Wednesday, the plaintiffs filed a 29-page memorandum asking Talwani to immediately issue a temporary restraining order and then a preliminary injunction blocking the U.S. Postal Service’s final Ballot Mail for Federal Elections rule. The new filing comes just hours after Talwani was forced to vacate her nationwide injunction following the Supreme Court’s August 24 ruling in Trump v. California. As The Gateway Pundit reported on Wednesday, Talwani conceded that,...

West Virginia law enforcement said a 20-year-old man who allegedly used the name “MrChildPorn” online is accused of possessing material depicting children engaged in sexually explicit conduct. West Virginia State Police said the suspect, Garrett Michael Highlander of Morgantown, was arrested last week after he allegedly used the Discord platform to share those images, WSB-TV reported Wednesday. Authorities are holding the suspect on a $100,000 bond. Troopers served a warrant at his home once they received numerous tips from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children regarding a man bragging about having numerous images of child sexual abuse material...
