President Trump just made one of the biggest moves yet to destroy the left’s most powerful weapon—and hardly anyone is talking about it. It didn’t even make a blip on the media’s radar. With one blistering executive order, Trump took a sledgehammer to the very foundation of the DEI movement. That’s right—47 just gutted the so-called “legal theory” that’s been used for decades to punish businesses, control hiring, and force unfair racial quotas under the phony guise of “civil rights.” This was the left’s top-secret weapon—and it was called “disparate impact”—and until now, it’s been holding America back from greatness....

Hold the tofu. New research suggests that vegans may be more likely to suffer from nutritional deficiencies than their meat-eating Worse still, scientists found that even vegans who hit their daily protein goals with plant-based sources often fall short on two essential amino acids, putting their health at risk. In the US, an estimated 1% to 5% of the population follows a vegan diet, which eliminates all animal products, including meat, dairy and eggs. Over the years, researchers have found that following a plant-based diet can reduce the risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes and some cancers, as well...

A 2-year-old boy is safe after walking about 7 miles and spending the night in mountain lion territory in northwest Arizona after he snuggled up to a very good dog who had found the boy wandering in the rugged wilderness. His new furry hero then led him to safety in the morning. Two-year-old Boden Allen was reported missing on Monday afternoon after he wandered away from his home near Seligman, according to the Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office. The little boy was last seen wearing just a tank top, pajama pants and Vans sneakers. Now enters the hero of this story:...

A federal judge Wednesday found probable cause to hold the Trump administration in criminal contempt for willfully disobeying his order to immediately halt deportations under the rarely used Alien Enemies Act and turn around any airborne planes. U.S. District Judge James Boasberg’s order gives the administration a final opportunity to come into compliance but says he otherwise will take steps to identify the specific people who flouted his March 15 ruling, which was later lifted by the Supreme Court, and refer them for prosecution.

IMMEDIATELY ARREST FOR CONSPIRACY TO OVERTHROW THE USG THE FOLLOWING AND BRING THEM IN FOR QUESTIONING: @BarackObama @JohnBrennan Jim Clapper (he’ll talk) Susan Rice Jim Comey (he’ll talk) Andrew McCabe (he’ll talk) This is full blown Treason! Yes, you’re damn right, I’m biased about this but if these people aren’t held accountable, they’ll do it again and again and again. These are communist thugs who use the idea of the ends justifying the means. But what is at grave risk is our country. The United States of America will only remain great if we maintain two examples our founders showed...

MAGNOLIA, N.J. (WPVI) -- In the small town of Magnolia, New Jersey, there's a lot of talk about a giant boom heard early Wednesday morning. Around 2:30 a.m. Wednesday, residents were woken up by the sound. When Sebastian Leonardo arrived at his auto body shop on Atlantic Avenue later that morning, he noticed a giant hole in the ceiling. When employees climbed up to look at the damage to the roof and ceiling, they saw where the unidentified object had made impact. "A sizable dent in a thick steel gage box. That's when I went to all of my cameras...

Elon Musk, head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), voiced grave concerns about declining birth rates and the future of the US during the second part of his exclusive interview with Fox News chief political anchor Bret Baier on Friday. Speaking on Special Report, Musk warned that the world's falling birth rates could have catastrophic consequences. “The birth rate is very low in almost every country, and unless that changes, civilisation will disappear,” he said. He cited the US and South Korea as examples, noting that efforts to reverse the trend have so far failed. “Nothing seems to be...

The Elon Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is pointing the finger at three Democrat-controlled states for the bulk of fraudulent unemployment payments. The agency recently uncovered $382 million in such payments since 2020 and named California, New York, and Massachusetts as the top states to blame for the problem, Fox News reported on Friday. In a social media post on Wednesday, DOGE said, “An initial survey of Unemployment Insurance claims since 2020 revealed the following: – 24.5k people over 115 years old claimed $59M in benefits – 28k people between 1 and 5 years old claimed $254M in benefits...

The proposal says it would target “criminal illegal aliens” and would attempt to avoid legal challenges by designating part of the prison — which has drawn accusations of violence and overcrowding from human rights groups — as AMERICAN TERRITORY.

The Biden administration has been caught red-handed prioritizing Beijing's feelings over American national security. In a shocking revelation, we now know that Biden officials engaged in secret discussions with Chinese counterparts about their spy balloon before bothering to inform the American public that our sovereignty had been violated. According to a report from Fox News Digital, Internal State Department documents reveal that on Feb. 1, 2023, while a Chinese surveillance balloon was floating across our nation collecting intelligence, Biden officials were more concerned about how exposing this breach would affect our "relationship" with China. Seriously? That's right — instead of...

Coming out of the Second World War, the US was the king of production,” says William B Bonvillian, a lecturer at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and an expert in US innovation policy.... by 1945, more steel was produced in the state of Pennsylvania alone than in Germany and Japan combined....

SUMMARY Donald Trump announces a 90-day pause on higher tariffs for dozens of countries - but hikes levies on China to 125% There will now be a universal tariff of 10% on all countries' goods, except for China He says the higher rate for China is because of "the lack of respect that China has shown to the world's markets" Earlier on Wednesday, China announced an 84% tariff on US imports after Donald Trump imposed a 104% tariff on Chinese goods entering the US Stock markets surged after Trump made his announcement - the president appears to have blinked, writes...

An appeals court in North Carolina is requiring more than 65,000 voters in the hotly contested state Supreme Court race to provide proof of identity in order for their votes to be counted. The ruling could potentially swing the outcome of the race in favor of Republican candidate Judge Jefferson Griffin. The Friday decision was a win for Griffin, who challenged more than 60,000 ballots because the voters had not provided either a driver’s license or the last four digits of a Social Security Number upon registering, as required in North Carolina. “The post-election protest process preserves the fundamental right...

A recent study has uncovered the existence of ancient lakes, rivers, and a massive water-formed valley beneath Arabia’s vast desert. ***************************************************************************** A recent study has uncovered a long-forgotten landscape hidden beneath the vast expanse of Arabia’s Empty Quarter—one of the driest and most desolate regions in the world today. The groundbreaking research, published in Communications Earth & Environment, reveals that the desert was once home to ancient lakes, rivers, and valleys, formed during periods of high rainfall between 11,000 and 5,500 years ago. This discovery sheds new light on the dramatic environmental shifts that occurred in the region during the...

President Donald Trump has stated multiple times that he wants to eliminate income taxes and replace them with tariffs. Such a decision would be one of the most significant changes to the tax code in decades, and it could help Americans save a lot of money. The government still needs to collect funds, so the tax code could shift to a combination of tariffs and sales tax. However, even if the IRS isn’t eliminated, Trump has floated the idea of no one paying taxes if they earn less than $150,000 per year. According to the TaxAct tax bracket calculator, a...

The mRNA-based vaccine platform is considered to be safe, but side effects are being reported more frequently as more and more people around the world become treated. Myopericarditis is the major, but not the only cardiovascular complication of this vaccine; hence it is important not to underestimate other side effects. We report a case series of patients affected by cardiac arrhythmias post-mRNA vaccine from our clinical practice and the literature. Reviewing the official vigilance database, we found that heart rhythm disorders after COVID vaccination are not uncommon and deserve more clinical and scientific attention. (snip) . The overall incidence of...

A new study published in the journal Immunity reveals a mechanism that allows triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) to develop resistance to therapy. Researchers showed that lipid accumulation in tumor cells and nearby immune cells promotes immune suppression, but disrupting lipid formulation reverses treatment resistance and the immunosuppressive microenvironment. Standard-of-care treatment for TNBC includes chemotherapy and immunotherapy. However, some initially responsive tumors still develop recurrences. Researchers studied mouse models and found that TNBC cells that survived treatment accumulated lipid droplets containing Omega-6 fatty acids. Single-cell RNA sequencing revealed that neutrophils, a type of white blood cell, near the tumor cells...

WTF?! Judge Boasberg, the activist judge BLOCKING Trump from deporting violent gang members, intentionally DELAYED the release of Hillary Clinton’s emails until after the 2016 election He’s also now “coincidentally” presiding over the Signal case This is RIGGED! How do people not see that?
