Fortunately, the Constitution should still operate to prevent a leftist administration from handing to the UN American sovereignty and Americans’ rights. When five different people send you a link, you know that something very important has happened, even if the drive-by media aren’t trumpeting it on their outlets. In this case, it’s Robert Williams’ report at the Gatestone Institute that, in September, the Harris-Biden administration, without fanfare, adopted a UN pact that gives the UN and the World Economic Forum (“WEF”) control over American speech, foreign policy, and, possibly, internal sovereignty. Thankfully, while the administration can sign someone’s name on...

NEW YORK — As the United Nations (UN) Summit of the Future began Sunday morning, delegates from across the 193 member states adopted the Pact for the Future, Global Digital Compact, and Declaration on Future Generations.“Back From the Brink”Underscoring the summit is a sense of desperation to save the global governance movement from distrust, lack of credibility, and outdated processes. According to Sunday’s agreed-upon Pact for the Future:We are deeply concerned by the growing Sustainable Development Goal financing gap facing developing countries.

Hey guys, what's happening? I have a little question regarding DFG fishing license regulations here in Colleeeforneeya. I'm heading up to Tahoe next week to do a little fishing and I need to know if I, a sixteen-year-old, need to purchase a license. I've heard from people that say you need one at 16 and people who say you need one at 18, so I need this settled once and for all.
