WASHINGTON — The US used a powerful mystery weapon that brought Venezuelan soldiers to their knees, “bleeding through the nose” and vomiting blood during the daring raid to capture dictator Nicolas Maduro, according to a witness account posted Saturday on X by the White House press secretary. In a jaw-dropping interview, the guard described how American forces wiped out hundreds of fighters without losing a single soldier, using technology unlike anything he has ever seen — or heard. We were on guard, but suddenly all our radar systems shut down without any explanation,” the guard said. “The next thing we...

A group of Western and allied states issued a joint statement condemning the Israeli security cabinet’s approval of 19 new communities in Judea and Samaria, stating that the move was "part of a wider intensification of the settlement policies in the West Bank." The statement, issued by Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Iceland, Ireland, Japan, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain, and the United Kingdom, described the decision as a unilateral action and claimed that such steps "not only violate international law but also risk fueling instability." According to the statement, the decision risks undermining "the implementation of the Comprehensive...

Screencap of Twitter/X video. A video that is making the rounds on social media right now shows two young, liberal women who have been following ICE agents in their car.

The account that posted the video to Twitter/X claims that this happened in Columbus but it might as well be any city in the country. The left is harassing ICE agents all over the place. When the woman who is driving cracks her window, the ICE agent can be...

Washington, D.C. Chief of Police Pam Smith resigned in disgrace on Friday after a scathing report released earlier this week. The House Oversight Committee report revealed that Smith coerced department officials into manipulating crime data across the District. The report claimed that she urged district commanders to “reduce crime statistics by any means necessary." The investigation into Smith uncovered systemic abuse of criminal reporting practices within the department. The Oversight Committee stated that: “Testimony revealed that Chief Smith prioritized lowering publicly reported crime numbers over reducing actual crime, placing intense pressure on district commanders to produce low crime statistics by...

Excited lanyard guys at a trade show smile at a Unitree humanoid robot © davide bonaldo via Shutterstock Can everyone dial it down a little with the enthusiasm for humanoid robots that can’t even do anything useful yet? You’re scaring the Chinese economy. On Thursday, three Bloomberg reporters based in Beijing reported on an usual government announcement from China’s economic central planning department, the National Development and Reform Commission (it has no U.S. equivalent, so don’t even ask): the commission had noticed a pattern of dozens upon dozens of Chinese firms pushing out humanoid robots that do essentially nothing, and...

Actor Charlie Sheen, during a conversation with Megyn Kelly, discusses how he "changed the channel" and discovered that "legacy" media is "very much like state-run media." MEYGN KELLY: Are you getting more comfortable with your politics and expressing them? CHARLIE SHEEN: I am. I think I talked to you about this early on. I had to feel something different, because I think we all, or a lot of us, remain beholden to the structure of the house that we were raised in. ...

Looks like Morning Joe forgot to lug along the seven-second-delay machine when it moved from MSNBC to MS NOW. Back in 2008, we noted that Morning Joe had instituted the seven-second delay two days after Joe Scarborough dropped an F-bomb. Scarborough went potty mouth again today. It came in response to Speaker Mike Johnson's and White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt's comments on the video released by six congressional Democrats telling members of the US military they can refuse to obey illegal orders. [snip] Scarborough said: "He lies so pretty. I mean, it's too easy for him to lie." Willie...

Gov. JB Pritzker told President Donald Trump and his Republican allies to “f--- right off” during a speech last month before Illinois’ largest teachers union. Video of Pritzker’s F-bomb started gaining traction on social media Sunday, two weeks after the Democratic governor and potential 2028 presidential contender got a standing ovation for his profane takedown of Trump administration education policies. “President Trump and his bootlickers have torn down the U.S. Dept. of Education from the inside. Instead of helping to improve math and reading scores like you all are doing and supporting our educators, they’re making it harder for students...

Democrat strategist James Carville recently criticized former President Joe Biden’s (D) son, Hunter, saying he simply needs to shut his mouth. During an episode of the podcast Politics War Room with Al Hunt, Hunt recalled a 2024 event where Hunter became angry after former President Barack Obama helped his father off a stage. Hunt said, “For God’s sakes, he needed to be helped off the stage. He was a doddering old man.” Hunt went on to say the Democrat Party has “a lot of problems.” Carville then added his thoughts. He said, “And we’ll talk about in terms of Hunter...

What the cluck? Ordering chicken at a seafood chain may sound like a real fish-out-of-water scenario — unless yu’re at Long John Silver’s, apparently. As fried chicken continues its reign over the fast-food world, the 56-year-old fast seafood joint has opted to update its brand from surf to turf. Famous for its old-fashioned fry baskets, Long John Silver’s has dropped the golden fish emblem from its logo and swapped it with a chicken. They also added the phrase “Chicken + Seafood” to the rebranded logo. In the coming months, the new logo will roll out across properties and materials, though...

I got here in 2021. As a matter of fact, the ACA made health insurance UNAFFORDABLE for my family after it was passed, with skyrocketing premiums higher than our house payment. I was not in Congress when all this Obamacare, “Affordable Care Act” bullshit started. I got here in 2021. As a matter of fact, the ACA made health insurance UNAFFORDABLE for my family after it was passed, with skyrocketing premiums higher than our house payment. Let’s just say as nicely as possible, I’m not a fan. But I’m going to go against everyone on this issue because when the...

U.S. Border Patrol agents shot a woman in Chicago Saturday after an angry mob apparently tried to attack the law enforcement officers. The gunfire erupted after a group of agents were “rammed in by 10 cars” and “boxed in” while patrolling the city’s South Side, Department of Homeland Security spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin told the Chicago Sun-Times. The agents fired “defensive shots,” then discovered the woman, who was driving in a vehicle, “was armed with a semi-automatic weapon,” McLaughlin told the outlet.

The BBC reported this evening (Thursday) that mediators Qatar and Egypt contacted the head of Hamas' military wing in Gaza, Izz ad-Din al-Haddad, who made it clear that he opposes US President Donald Trump's 21-point plan. According to the report, al-Haddad believes that the US plan is intended to bring about the end of Hamas's rule - whether the terrorist organization agrees to it or not - and therefore, from his perspective, there is no point in accepting it, and Hamas must continue fighting. On Tuesday, US President Donald Trump told reporters that Hamas has three to four days to...
