November 11 could be the final Veterans Day for many of the World War II vets, now well into their 90s. Filmmaker Mel Brooks, 98, is one of them. Actor, comedian, composer and filmmaker Mel Brooks was born Melvin James Kaminsky in 1926. He grew up in Brooklyn, New York. In 1944, he was drafted into the Army. Due to his high scores on his military entrance exam, Brooks was placed in the Army Specialized Training Program at Virginia Military Institute, where he learned combat engineering and other fighting skills. Twelve weeks later, he was sent to basic training at...

Why did Trump win the 2024 election? Yesterday I was walking in the city and two young Moroccan guys were discussing the US election outcome. “He did it, the old warrior!” said one of them, admiration obvious in his voice. These were two young Muslims from what Trump had referred to as “shithole countries” during his first tenure…

Millions of Americans both friend and foe, are offering their congratulations to Donald Trump for his historic win just days ago. The entire battle of the campaigns was without doubt an American saga, an epic, and a true revelation of how the will of the people is the perfect demonstration of this thing we call democracy. Kamala ended her dash for the Whitehouse with a late and dark concession speech. She spoke of defending everyone’s liberty and dignity. That of course did not include the millions of unborn children that were counted as superfluous waste and an interference. They had...

Benavidez was at a forward operating base in Loc Ninh monitoring the operation by radio when the helicopters, who attempted the extraction, returned to off-load wounded crewmembers and to assess aircraft damage. Benavidez voluntarily boarded a returning aircraft in order to assist in another extraction attempt. Realizing that all the team members were either dead or wounded and unable to move to the pickup zone, he directed the aircraft to a nearby clearing where he jumped from the hovering helicopter and ran approximately 75 meters under heavy small arms fire to the crippled team. Prior to reaching the team's position,...

Chris Kaba, who was elevated to George Floyd-esque martyrdom status in Britain after being killed during an altercation with police in 2022, has now been revealed to have been a serial violent criminal offender and a member of one of London’s most feared gangs, which put out a hit on a police officer following Kaba’s death. In September 2022, Kaba was stopped by police over suspicion that his car was tied to a firearms offence the previous day. Rather than complying with the officers, Kaba refused to leave his vehicle and ultimately used his car as a “battering ram” against...

GREENSBORO, N.C. — The man accused of pointing a rifle into the golf course where former President Donald Trump was playing last weekend, was known in his hometown as something of a bad actor. “Weird” is how one of Ryan Routh’s former neighbors in Greensboro described him. She told reporters he once had a horse in his house and that he also kept guns. A man, who like the first neighbor asked not to be identified for fear of being associated with Routh, says he didn’t know the 58 year old well but got a similar vibe. “I mean, [he]...

Multiple Mexican corridos, or narrative folk songs, telling the story of former President Donald Trump’s narrow escape from death in a July 13 assassination attempt have gone viral in the past week on social media. The posts rejoice in Trump as divinely protected and a man who “has never known fear.” Corridos are traditional folk songs, often using heavy accordion, that narrate dramatic events in history, the news, or popular mythology. They were originally a form of spreading news of revolutionary heroes in the 1800s and have since evolved to lionize popular figures in literature, news, and politics. Some corridos...

The Minneapolis police officer gunned down in an ambush-style attack was killed while trying to help the suspect, who initially pretended to be a victim in need of help during Thursday’s mass shooting, according to officials. Officer Jamal Mitchell, 28, responded to a reported shooting inside an apartment in the city’s trendy Whittier neighborhood and ran out of his car to aid the shooting victims, Bureau of Criminal Apprehension Superintendent Drew Evans said in a press conference late Thursday. But the man he had he was rushing to help wound up being the suspect, who fatally shot the “courageous hero”...

As Trump wows the public at rallies, Biden seethes behind the castle walls, demanding that his nemesis be convicted and jailed. The next big news day for the regime will be Verdict Day! Oh, how they will celebrate. And lest you get carried away with the fantasy that maybe they’ll acquit Trump in the city that made him, think again. There is little chance that the jury will go home to their friends and family and confess they passed on the chance to save Democracy because they had a sudden case of reasonable doubt. Corrupt president, corrupt prosecutor, corrupt judge,...

Wayne and Lindy Baker, along with their 9-year-old son, Branson, were headed to Dickson, Oklahoma, just north of Marietta, to seek shelter, when a tornado suddenly picked up their truck and tossed it...

WRTV's Griffin Gonzalez introduces us to Gabriel Pitzulo, a man who tackled and held an assault suspect until police arrived.

Star Wars fans explain why Anakin Skywalker's decades of evil as Darth Vader outweigh his last-minute redemption act in Return of the Jedi.Some Star Wars fans believe Anakin Skywalker can never be fully redeemed for his evil actions as Darth Vader, even though he sacrificed himself in an attempt to make amends in Return of the Jedi. Star Wars character Anakin Skywalker, once a heroic Jedi, fell to the dark side of the Force and became the ruthless Sith Lord Darth Vader, serving the evil Emperor Palpatine for over two decades. Though initially conflicted about his turn to evil, he...

Nikki Haley on Saturday said the death of “hero” Russian opposition leader Aleksei A. Navalny demands a response from former President Donald Trump. She said the outspoken Navalny had died at the hands of President Vladimir V. Putin and her former boss Trump needed to “answer to that,” the New York Times reports. Haley made her call while speaking with reporters outside her rally at a park in Irmo, S.C., praising Navalny for calling out Putin for corruption and fixing elections.

A New York City doorman is being hailed as a hero after he stepped up to help a young woman who was chased down by two robbers and pushed against a wall over the weekend in a brazen, broad daylight attack. A 24-year-old woman was robbed of her phone by two thieves outside an Upper East Side building at around 3:45 p.m. Sunday, police said. The victim was not harmed, and the brutes were unable to snatch her purse as well since the doorman of a building at 74th Street and Madison Avenue intervened, ABC7 reported. “I did what I...

Oz Davidian took a different route each time as he made some 20 trips to Re’im, where Hamas terrorists overran the Nova rave and slaughtered partygoers Extraordinary video footage was published November 15 from the dashboard of a truck belonging to a farmer from the area near the Gaza border who rescued some 120 young people trying to escape from an open-air party on October 7, as Hamas terrorists sprayed them with bullets. Oz Davidian, from nearby Maslul, made some 20 trips between Re’im, where an all-night party held outdoors had been overrun by gunmen, and his moshav, as well...

Thank you Matt, because of your bravery and tenacity it looks like we will be getting an upgrade for speaker. Time will tell but I am forever grateful.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Florida sent 85 pallets worth of cargo to Israel on two successful plane launches under an emergency executive order from Gov. Ron DeSantis. Departing Tuesday, DeSantis’ office said the planes will reach Israel Wednesday. The planes are carrying medical supplies, clothing, hygiene products and toys. “With the lack of leadership in Washington, we are stepping up to help our allies in Israel who are in need of supplies and our support,” DeSantis said. “As we continue to bring back Americans who were stranded in Israel when the war began, we will also keep sending the necessary health...

An Israeli woman has been hailed a hero after saving kibbutz Nir Am from Hamas as infiltrating terrorists began to invade. Inbar Lieberman, 25, who is the security coordinator for the village near the Gaza Strip, lead a group of residents to kill more than two dozen advancing terrorists. Lieberman, who has been part of the security detail in the region since December 2022, heard explosions erupting early Saturday when Hamas launched the unprecedented and deadly attack on Israel, according to Walla News. She quickly realized that the sounds were different to those she's heard during the usual rocket attacks...
