FBI Director Chris Wray and former CISA Director Chris Krebs hid the extent of the enormous Iranian election security breach from the American public until last month, four years after the 2020 election. =========================================================================== In 2025, unsealed court documents completely redefined what we were told to believe about the 2020 US presidential election. The election was billed by the Democrat Party, Joe Biden, the mainstream media, and former CISA Chief Chris Krebs as the ‘most secure election’ in US history. Chris Krebs, the former CISA Director, testified before Congress on December 16, 2020, after he was fired by Donald Trump....

Screencap of Twitter/X video. Democrat Senator Elissa Slotkin of Michigan was recently speaking to a crowd of supporters about the SAVE America Act and she accidentally gave the game away without even seeming to realize it. Conservatives know why Democrats oppose the act. They want people to be able to vote without IDs so that illegal immigrants can vote. They keep trying to claim that it’s just too difficult for certain Americans to obtain an ID but that’s ridiculous. You can’t do anything in life today without a valid ID. Slotkin’s comments take things a step even further. In the...

A black feminist historian whose work is being labeled as misleading — and who may have lost her cushy academic job — says it all comes down to an attack on black women. The New York Times tells the tale of Kerri Greenidge, whose 2022 book “The Grimkes” was hailed for its narrative about a slaveholding family and its work in the abolitionist movement. Publishers Weekly put the book on its list of that year’s top books, while the American Historical Association handed Greenidge the Joan Kelly Memorial Prize, which honors scholars in women’s history and feminist theory. But the...

A Russian soldier narrowly escaped being killed after an improvised anti-drone weapon malfunctioned during a live-fire test, sending thousands of rounds spraying across a military training ground.

During the heated exchange, Behar insisted she was simply focused on “winning” in what she called an “emergency” situation under President Donald Trump. There is something hilarious about women who spent years demonizing white men suddenly treating them as saviors and their only path to victory. Behar began by floating a list of white male candidates she believes could actually win, naming Georgia Sen. Jon Ossoff, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker, and former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg. She framed the suggestion as cold political reality, telling her co-hosts they needed to face facts after watching the country...

At the outset of our investigation, we knew there was a shocking deficit of absentee ballots compared to the required absentee envelopes, but after checking, double- and then triple-checking the data on each envelope and comparing them to the registered voters on file, we were able to prove (using evidence provided by the City of Detroit) that an incredible 26,901 absentee ballots lacked the legally required accompanying absentee ballot envelope.

An illegal immigrant who has been deported three times has been charged in a July 3 crash that killed a 6-year-old girl in North Carolina. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has lodged a detainer asking North Carolina officials not to let Jaime Santiago Corona out of jail without notifying them, according to a Department of Homeland Security news release. Calli Toler, 6, was killed in the crash. Corona, a criminal illegal alien from Mexico, faces multiple charges. DHS noted that Corona’s “criminal history includes convictions for driving under the influence of liquor and obstructing police.” According to arrest warrants, Jaime...

Jasmine Crockett, the race-hustling Congresswoman who lost her Texas Senate bid to Democrat James Talarico, revealed the real reason she lost the race during a black culture festival over the weekend. At a panel discussion during the Essence Festival in New Orleans on the Fourth of July, Crockett appeared alongside Rep. LaMonica McIver (NJ-10) and Louisiana State Senator Royce Duplessis. At one point, Crockett went off on her own party and "racist" Republicans for ignoring black people, saying, "I believe that we need to make demands." "It is not enough just to be that you're not the racist Republican but...

A federal appeals court just upheld a New York state ban on gas stoves, which is very strange, considering the fact that Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York insisted that the ban on gas stoves wasn’t even happening. This has all been unfolding quietly in the background for about two years now. Groups which are part of the gas industry challenged the ban but a federal court just sided with the state.

A New York City landlord has gone viral for dragging Marxist NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani after he announced a massive rent freeze last week. As The New York Times reported, a New York City panel voted on Thursday to freeze rents for nearly one million rent-stabilized apartments. This fulfilled one of Mamdani's prominent campaign promises. The Rent Guidelines Board approved the freeze on both one- and two-year leases in a 7-to-1 vote. Increases were thus paused on more than 40% of all apartments across the five boroughs. The Times revealed that this includes high-rise luxury apartments, deeply affordable subsidized units,...

Democrat Rep. Ted Lieu on Wednesday suggested that President Trump is taking a special drug because he is terminally ill. Lieu made the remarks after President Trump abruptly announced that he canceled the housing bill signing ceremony until the SAVE America Act is passed. Ted Lieu said Trump canceled the signing ceremony because he is on drugs and dying. “Today’s Housing News Conference and Signing is hereby cancelled until such time as we pass the desperately needed SAVE AMERICA ACT, which I consider to be a National Emergency. Thank you for your attention to this matter,” Trump said on Truth...

The note, received around February 6, was a major shift from the earlier message from the same IP address that had demanded millions in bitcoin for her safe return. The latter note adopted a “new, less confident tone” and included a “sputtering and labored” apology for her “inadvertent death,” sources told Air Mail in a detailed report on the investigation. The person claiming to be the kidnapper reportedly floated returning her body in exchange for payment. After the second note was received, Savannah Guthrie posted a video addressing the alleged kidnapper. "We received your message and we understand," Savannah Guthrie...

This isn't the kind of news liberals generally see fit to print. The New York Times Magazine this week published a mammoth look at the last days of life for sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein, apparently aimed at establishing firmly whether the official finding that Epstein committed suicide actually holds water On that front, the effort is a failure, but the notoriously liberal publication did manage to cement one fact -- and it's not the kind of fact its liberal readership craves when it comes to President Donald Trump. Jeffrey Epstein was obsessed with trying to take down Trump before suicide,...

Marion County Sheriff Billy Woods had zero patience for media games Thursday when a reporter tried to hijack a press conference about a major child predator sting to ask about an unrelated Florida Highway Patrol lawsuit. The press conference was called to announce the results of “Operation Bad Habits,” a six-day undercover operation conducted in early June that resulted in 58 child predators being taken off the streets, the largest such sting in Marion County history. Detectives posed online as children ranging from 7 to 15 years old (and sometimes as parents) to lure sickos looking to meet kids for...

The FBI executed three federal search warrants Tuesday morning at the Contra Costa County Assessor’s Office and the homes of longtime Assessor Gus Kramer and his right-hand man, Assistant Assessor Vince Robb. The FBI executed three federal search warrants on Tuesday, targeting the Contra Costa County Assessor's Office and the homes of two top county tax officials in what is shaping up to be one of the biggest public corruption investigations to hit California's East Bay in years. Federal agents descended on the Contra Costa County Assessor's Office in Martinez, along with residences connected to longtime County Assessor Gus Kramer...

President Donald Trump’s top counterterrorism adviser confirmed that U.S. and Nigerian forces killed 199 suspected terrorists and seized massive new evidence about ISIS extremists during a recent secret mission deep in Africa. Dr. Sebastian Gorka, Senior Director for Counterterrorism at the National Security Council, dropped the details during an appearance on the “Just the News, No Noise” show, declaring the operation “the most successful counterterrorism operation since September 11.” “This is a historic moment, because that operation in Nigeria … that one operation led to the killing of 199 enemies,” Gorka stated. “That is the most successful counterterrorism operation since...

Over the weekend, as part of the Black Crowes' "Southern Hospitality Tour" along with Whiskey Myers, Crowes lead singer Chris Robinson tried to shut down the patriotic Tampa crowd and instead watched a steady stream of concertgoers leave mid-set rather than listen to his woke nonsense. During the show, according to TMZ, a screen showed the band’s crow mascot as Uncle Sam, which sparked “USA” chants from the crowd. Robinson seemed miffed by the patriotic outburst and snidely lectured the crowd, saying, “Thanks for the geography lesson.” As the chants continued, he added, “I don’t know what you have to...
