@RandPaul Tune in now - I’ll be live on the Senate floor soon talking trade and tax policy.

Nigel Farage, a right-wing populist ally of President Trump, has been touring England ahead of local elections, hoping to convert a polling surge for his party into power. .... Mr. Farage, who leads the anti-immigration party Reform U.K., has long been one of Britain’s most ardent supporters of President Trump. He has learned from the president’s campaign tactics, too. That means, among other things, that the political rally is back in Britain. In the weeks before municipal elections and a special election in England on May 1, Mr. Farage has been touring the country, taking to the stage in Cornwall,...

The Prince and Princess of Wales are spending their second and final day on the Isle of Mull with children taking part in an outdoor learning session with forest rangers. William and Catherine celebrated their 14th wedding anniversary on Tuesday as they began an official visit to the island off the west coast of Scotland. Their final day of the mini-tour will focus on the natural world, which Catherine has previously described as her family's "sanctuary". The couple, who are officially known as the Duke and Duchess of Rothesay when in Scotland, have visited the Ardura Community Forest - which...

A 29-year-old food vendor was shot in the arm near Times Square early Wednesday after getting into a fight with a group of youngsters, law enforcement sources told The Post. The male victim took a bullet to his right arm when the gunfire erupted at Seventh Avenue and West 47th Street just before 5 a.m., police said. It wasn’t immediately clear exactly what led to the shooting, but sources said the gunman fired several rounds in the wake of a dispute.

Farage just said it's time to call a national emergency on illegal immigration. 10,000 young men have entered England illegally this year often from countries that are alien to us. In Runcorn alone (where a special election is being held) he said there are 750 of them being housed at great expense in hotels and private accommodation.

They made no sound, left no visable trail, and traveled from the western horizon to the eastern horizon. I thought it was unusual, so I pointed it out to a Durhan Police Officer standing near me, and he thought so too. They appeared to be very close in line, but it was hard to tell at that altitude. Any ideas? How could they fly in a straight line without massive turbulence?

EXCLUSIVE: Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., did not rule out 2028 presidential aspirations when asked by Fox News Digital about the viral video that had pundits guessing if she was soft-launching her campaign. "I think what people should be most concerned about is the fact that Republicans are trying to cut Medicaid right now, and people's healthcare is in danger. That's really what my central focus is," the New York Democrat said when asked if she was considering a run for president, despite President Donald Trump's assurances that he wouldn't cut Medicaid. "This moment isn't about campaigns, or elections, or about...

Yesterday I put out a Substack article called Rage, Rage Against the Dying of the Light. The article was about the Gates backed UK government plans to provide 50-80 million pounds of funding and commence experiments to block out the sun. I covered this extensively in my book Gates of Hell: Why Bill Gates is the Most Dangeous Man in the World. A large part of that book was about the core problems with Gates, which are: 1. Totally undemocratic and unaccountable networks of power allowing one man with no elected role or mandate to direct public policy. 2. Totally...

Two career criminals – one an ex-con and high-risk sex offender who served time for rape – were charged with attempted murder for allegedly shooting an off-duty NYPD cop while apparently trying to swipe his neon green BMW his Queens over the weekend, police said Monday. Denzel Brown, 29, and Marvin Dankwah, 26, also face charges of first-degree robbery and criminal possession of a weapon in the 6:30 a.m. Sunday violence that left the 25-year-old officer with a graze wound on his leg, according to authorities and sources. Investigators are probing whether the arrested pair were attempting to carjack the...

The attempts on President Trump’s life were one of the most disturbing and suspicious events in modern political history, especially the one in Butler, Pa. And yet, barely anyone in the media seems interested in asking real questions. They’re not the least bit curious about what happened, and it’s starting to feel like they want us to forget it ever happened. But that’s not going to happen… Thanks to people like Joe Rogan and Elon Musk, the curtain is still being yanked back, and what’s behind it should send chills down every American’s spine. From a house scrubbed cleaner than...

FAIRFIELD, Conn. (WTNH) — The Fairfield Police Department is clearing up some confusion surrounding screaming and running crowds at the McKinley Carnival at Jennings Beach Saturday night. Screaming crowds were seen running from the beach area, police said, causing a greater confusion and panic among carnival goers. Police said that some kids were using “flatulence spray,” also known as fart spray, near the carnival exit, causing groups to run from the smell. They said that the prank was repeated multiple times throughout the night.

Scott Pelley ended @60Minutes by lamenting the resignation of Executive Producer Bill Owens who “did it for us and you.” Pelley ludicrously claimed Owens made sure stories on Israel and the Trump admin “were accurate and fair.” Pelley complained: “Paramount began to supervise our content in new ways. None of our stories has been blocked, but Bill felt he lost the independence that honest journalism requires.”

this is a montage video of several talking heads in the media using their new buzzword: “Escalation.” It just goes to show that all of the mainstream media fools get the phone call or the email in the morning telling them what the news is that day, and exactly how to report it. They are too stupid to mix it up though, and so they read the script they are given word for word.

EXCLUSIVE: New York Attorney General Letitia James, who became President Donald Trump's nemesis after accusing him of mortgage fraud, is now battling the very same allegations, and her chief tormentor is a legendary scam artist who says he knows a crook when he sees one. Sam Antar, who kept the books for his cousin, "Crazy Eddie" Antar, while he built a New York-area consumer electronics empire, helped his late relative skim cash and inflate the value of their company before leaving investors high and dry in the late 1980s. He says he knows every trick in the fraud book and...

There is very little information on the cause of the major power outage in Europe that just happened at 12:20 local time. "While Spain’s prime minister has said the cause of the blackout remains unknown, REN has said there was a "very large oscillation in the electrical voltages, first in the Spanish system, which then spread to the Portuguese system"." Was it a CME? Was is a space weapon? The following are a collection of comments from several news articles. "No sign blackout wascaused by cyberattack, says REN Portuguese grid operator REN said on Monday it had "no information" that...

People who eat lots of ultra-processed foods (UPF) may be at greater risk of dying early, a study in eight countries including the UK and the US suggests. Processed meats, biscuits, fizzy drinks, ice cream and some breakfast cereals are examples of UPF, which are becoming increasingly common in diets worldwide. UPFs tend to contain more than five ingredients, which are not usually found in home cooking, such as additives, sweeteners and chemicals to improve the food's texture or appearance. Some experts say it's not known why UPFs are linked to poor health - there is little evidence it's down...

Almost six years after the suspicious “suicide” of Jeffrey Epstein, notorious billionaire financier and pedophile, his most famous accuser has also died. Virginia Giuffre, who claimed, as a minor, she was forced into sexual acts with both Epstein and Prince Andrew, Duke of York, reportedly died by “suicide” last Thursday. At the age of sixteen, Giuffre said she was recruited to work for Epstein by his associate Ghislaine Maxwell, who was convicted in December of 2021 on five counts of assisting Epstein in his sexual abuse of underage girls. Maxwell is serving a 20-year prison sentence.

A year after his presidential ambitions collapsed, Gov. Ron DeSantis and his wife Casey can no longer lay claim to the future of the Republican Party. And in Florida, even their present is in jeopardy. Once firmly in his corner, many Sunshine State Republicans have lately turned on DeSantis, stymying his agenda and frustrating him to no end. At the same time, Casey DeSantis, long regarded as a political force in her own right, is encountering quiet but firm resistance as she lays the groundwork for a potential run to succeed her husband — a campaign that would pit her...
