Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., a lifelong, true, loyal leftist, suddenly became popular among conservatives because he was one of the few leftists to speak out against COVID vaccines. This wasn’t any particular wisdom on his part; he’s always opposed all vaccines. However, because of this stance, when RFK Jr threw his hat in the Democrat primary ring against Biden, some conservatives got excited. This man, they thought, would siphon votes away from Biden, handing Republicans a win. But that’s not what will happen—and RFK knows it. In other words, he’s another weapon against Republicans. I’ve never trusted RFK, despite his...

A Los Angeles County teenager was sentenced to four years in prison Tuesday after admitting to making more than 375 "swatting calls" in which he made false reports of bomb and mass shooting threats at locations around the U.S. Alan W. Filion, an 18-year-old Lancaster resident, admitted in a plea agreement to carrying out calls targeting places such as high schools, colleges and universities, religious institutions and people such as government officials, according to the U.S. Department of Justice. Federal prosecutors said he intended for the calls to result in major emergency responses by law enforcement. This led to some...

North Salt Lake, Utah – An unhinged Reddit user who regularly calls for the gunshot murder of Elon Musk, President Donald Trump, and other so-called “nazis” has been identified as an IT administrator for a local middle school. Thanks to a credible tip, counter-extremist researchers with the Justice Report can name 39-year-old Mason David Luxenberg, aka “MasonL87,” as the man behind a series of death threats aimed at the United States Federal government. Luxenberg—an IT professional currently working in close proximity to children at Sunset Ridge Middle School in West Jordan, Utah— would be one of several users pushing the...

A Massachusetts woman who told police that she went to the U.S. Capitol to kill members of President Donald Trump's cabinet said she was influenced by Luigi Mangione, the man charged with fatally shooting the CEO of UnitedHealthcare, prosecutors said in a court filing. Ryan Michael English, who goes by Riley English, was arrested Monday and remained in custody after her initial court appearance on Thursday. English didn't immediately challenge her pretrial detention, court records show. English, 24, of South Deerfield, Massachusetts, told police that she felt like she was “on a mission” and “had been thinking about for this...

Chairman of the Lenawee County Democratic Party, Bill Swift, called for the hanging of supporters of President Donald Trump while labeling immigration officials as “Nazi collaborators” in a Facebook post. Despite his deleted post following the backlash, he doubled down on his statements during a call-in appearance on Talk Back Radio with Doug Spade and Mike Clement. Swift claimed he removed the post because Trump supporters “might do violence to people in our community.” However, he stood behind his statements, saying, “We as a party and I as an individual absolutely 100% support the statements that we made.” Swift defended...

A prominent community and civil rights activist set himself on fire last week near Santa Cruz City Hall, just hours after President Donald Trump took his oath of office and a heavily attended Martin Luther King Jr. Day march had cleared in downtown Santa Cruz on Jan. 20. Firefighters extinguished the flames while the activist was standing atop the Black Lives Matter street mural in front of city hall. The person was badly burned and airlifted to a nearby trauma unit, according to police and fire scanners.

The mysterious duo who were pulled over in Coventry, Vt. in the deadly shootout are leftist trans militants with alleged ties to a trans terror cell allegedly involved in three other homicides. On Inauguration Day, the shocking news that a US Border Patrol officer had been shot dead near the Canadian border in Vermont in an incident involving a now-deceased foreign national was overshadowed by coverage of Donald Trump's events in the nation's capital. One week later, a 21-year-old Washington woman was charged over the deadly incident, but little has been reported about her and her deceased accomplice, a German...

Ministers are planning a major overhaul to how knives are bought online after Southport triple killer Axel Rudakubana purchased weapons off Amazon before carrying out a sickening rampage at a Taylor Swift-themed dance party. Rudakubana, who on Monday pleaded guilty to the murder of of Bebe King, Elsie Dot Stancombe, seven, and Alice da Silva Aguiar, nine, bought the kitchen knife used in the attack from Amazon when he was 17 despite having a conviction for violence. Home Secretary Yvette Cooper told the House of Commons yesterday that it was a 'disgrace' that Rudakubana was able to buy knives on...

Trump and his MAGA allies are already targeting the four major pillars of resistance to Trump during his first term. As we prepare for Trump’s second regime — which promises to be far worse than the first — it’s important to do what we can to protect and fortify these four centers of opposition. 1. Universities University faculties are dedicated to finding and exposing the truth — which has often meant calling out Trump’s lies. But Trump has warned that he’ll change the criteria for university accrediting in order to force university faculties into line...... 2. Nonprofits America’s nonprofits have...

The transfer is the largest yet during the Biden administration. ... In a major development, the Pentagon on Monday announced the transfer 11 Yemeni detainees at Guantanamo Bay to Oman, a move that now leaves only 15 detainees still at the detention facility. "The United States appreciates the willingness of the government of Oman and other partners to support ongoing U.S. efforts focused on responsibly reducing the detainee population and ultimately closing the Guantanamo Bay facility," said a DOD statement. In recent weeks, the Pentagon had transferred out four other detainees from Guantanamo including a detainee who was brought to...

You can smell it in the air. A deep sense of betrayal among Democratic voters. An underlying realization that the Democratic party’s politburo — Obama, Pelosi, Schumer, Jeffries, and their courtiers of elected official and consultant sycophants — sold voters a bill of goods: the gaslighting of the public on President Biden’s decrepitude; the false idol of the Kamala Harris “campaign of joy” as a smart last-minute stand-in; and the repeated cowering to the far left whose wokeness and moral condescension turns off most voters. In a just world, one might expect a formal no-confidence vote on this leadership failure....

The driver of the Tesla Cybertruck that blew up outside Trump International Hotel Las Vegas on New Year's Day has been identified as active-duty U.S. Army soldier Matthew Livelsberger, The Associated Press is reporting, citing law enforcement officials. The officials spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss an ongoing investigation. Livelsberger, 37, has several addresses associated with him and was on leave from Germany, where he was serving with the 10th Special Forces Group. On Wednesday, he reportedly pulled the truck up outside the hotel at around 8:40 a.m. local...

The Las Vegas Cybertruck explosion on January 1, 2025, outside President-elect Trump’s hotel has sparked a fervent investigation into the motives of the deceased driver, identified as 37-year-old former army veteran Matthew Livelsberger. Seven individuals were injured in the blast, which occurred in the valet area of the Trump Hotel.

Local media reports he has military experience, similar to that of the New Orleans terrorist. The FBI is conducting a search at his home, according to local media.

In the wake of the attempted assassination of former president Donald Trump, authorities are still trying to determine a motive for the shooter, a 20-year-old man from Bethel Park, Pennsylvania. But the lack of publicly verifiable information about the gunman has not stopped rampant speculation about his political leanings. In a viral Facebook post, comedian and podcaster Terrence K. Williams asserted that “the Democrats” are responsible for a long line of assassinations and assassination attempts throughout American history, including the killings or attempted killings of civil rights leaders Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X, and former presidents Abraham Lincoln,...

At a time when most current and former Republican officials are mouthing Trump’s lies or keeping quiet — because they’ve sold their souls to their political ambitions or they’re intimidated by potential violence from Trump and his MAGA thugs — Cheney continues to serve the nation with courage and honor by telling the truth about the despicable traitor who will become president six weeks from now. She doesn’t need a pardon from Biden because Trump’s claim wouldn’t last an instant in federal court. What she deserves from Biden is a Presidential Medal of Freedom.

Well, sadly, it seems some people didn’t learn anything from that violent, deadly disaster. Meet the “Tenacious Unicorn Ranch,” another Antifa-armed commune out in Custer County, Colorado, where queer and trans radicals tried—and miserably failed—to build their own Marxist utopia. Of course, right on cue, leftist media swooned, hailing it as a stunning and brave progressive safe haven. And while the left was busy congratulating themselves for their “brave” new utopia, the ranch was busy cashing in on phony “right-wing threat” stories and stunts. They squeezed every dime they could out of Patreon, GoFundMe, and PayPal. Nothing like a fake...
