Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson is being widely criticized on social media for claiming he has doubts that Iran-backed Hamas was anything more than a “political organization.” Israel has stepped up its campaign to wipe out Hamas from Gaza ever since Oct. 7, 2023, when Hamas attacked an Israeli music festival, killing at least 1,200 and taking some 250 hostages. Recently, Israel struck Gaza’s only Catholic church, killing three people. The Israelis said they were investigating the incident, however, Carlson claimed the Israeli Defense Forces were exhibiting “self-destructive behavior” by shelling churches, whether intentionally or not. In his latest...

A new poll conducted by Leger360 between August 29 and 31, 2025, is causing controversy in the world of U.S. politics, as it projects that California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, is the frontrunner for the 2028 presidential election. The results of the survey, which were shared on social media, pitted Newsom against potential GOP candidates, including Vice President JD Vance, former President Donald Trump, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio. The California governor narrowly leads the president by a score of 48 percent to 44 percent, 47 percent to Vance’s 46 percent, and 49 percent to Rubio’s 44 percent....

A U.S. Department of State (DOS) employee was sentenced today to 48 months in prison for conspiring to collect and transmit national defense information to individuals he believed to be working for the government of the People’s Republic of China (PRC).“The defendant threw away his career, betrayed his country, and abused the trust the United States placed in him by granting his Top-Secret security clearance. He will spend years of his life in prison for passing classified information to individuals he believed to be Chinese government agents,” said Assistant Attorney General for National Security John A. Eisenberg. “Today’s sentence serves...

[H/T CheshireTheCat]New VAERS study finds major signals for fetal death, preterm birth, paralysis, Guillain-Barré syndrome, heart failure, thrombocytopenia, and mini-strokes.A new peer-reviewed pharmacovigilance study just published in Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics analyzed nearly 18,000 adverse event reports tied to the three FDA-approved RSV vaccines — Pfizer’s Abrysvo, GSK’s Arexvy, and Moderna’s mRESVIA.The findings are alarming: Pfizer’s vaccine generated 103 positive safety signals, including fetal death, hemorrhage in pregnancy, and preterm birth, while GSK’s vaccine generated 91 signals, including paralysis, Guillain-Barré syndrome, and mini-strokes.

CBS News has just admitted that a recent interview with Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem was deceptively edited. The network will now make changes to the “Face the Nation” program to prevent such incidents from happening again. The incident stemmed from an interview aired last Sunday featuring Noem in which she was cut off while answering a question concerning why DHS was going after an illegal alien and alleged MS-13 gang member and human trafficker, Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Program host Ed O’Keefe asked Noem why they weren’t making Garcia stand trial and face charges here in the United States and...

Diplomatic efforts to end the largely deadlocked war in Ukraine have focused on Western guarantees of Ukraine’s future security. But the Kremlin says it must obtain its own “security guarantees” before laying down arms. What President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia says is protection, however, would drastically limit Ukraine’s sovereignty, leaving it vulnerable to a renewed Russian attack and, many of its supporters believe, effectively turning it into a client state of Moscow. That tension over “security guarantees” — and the different ways in which the term is interpreted by the Kremlin and by the West — underlines the fundamental...

James O’Keefe, the Project Veritas founder and longtime pro-MAGA activist, published a clip on Thursday of a Trump Justice Department official claiming that Ghislaine Maxwell was moved to prison “to keep her quiet.” In the clip, an off-camera woman asks Joseph Schnitt, an acting deputy chief of special operations, about the Epstein Files and Maxwell – a convicted sex offender and Jeffrey Epstein accomplice. “But those files do exist,” noted the woman. “Yeah, thousands and thousands to page through. They’ll redact every Republican or conservative person in those files, leave all the liberal, Democratic people in those pages,” Schnitt replied....

President Donald Trump has a new city in his sights after he threatened to send the National Guard into Chicago and Baltimore in the name of fighting crime and deporting undocumented immigrants. Trump has thus far targeted Democratic-run cities in Democratic-run states, but this time could be different, as the president eyes New Orleans — a Democratic-run “blue” city in the red state of Louisiana. Trump told reporters in the Oval Office Wednesday, “So we’re making a determination now. Do we go to Chicago? Do we go to a place like New Orleans, where we have a great governor, Jeff...

Here is a wonderful little story A young cashier told an older woman that she should bring her grocery bags because plastic bags weren't good for the environment. The woman apologized, "We didn't have this green thing back in my day." The young clerk said, "Your generation did not care enough to save our environment for future generations." She gave him a firm stare and a hard grin and said “Back then, we returned milk bottles, soda bottles, and beer bottles. The store sent them back to the plant to be washed sterilized and refilled, so it could use the...

Besides the harm the transgender ideology does to individuals, leaving boys being less than boys and girls less than girls after “treatment,” the lost families and lives, the multiple mass killers that have come from that lifestyle, there is a “threat” to public safety, and “as such, it should be outlawed and eradicated form public life.” ...

San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan criticized Governor Gavin Newsom and the California Legislature over a lack of funding for Proposition 36 on this week’s edition of Inside California Politics. Mahan called the $100 million allocation ’embarrassing’ during a wide-ranging interview on homelessness, mental health services, crime and more. “I’m disappointed frankly,” Mahan told host Nikki Laurenzo. “We said during the Prop 36 campaign it’s a two-step process — the voters need to make clear that they expect accountability for retail theft and they want to see people get treatment, and then the governor and the legislature need to fund expanded...

I have two items to write about today. The first is, I was selected for a BookBub Featured Deal. This is a huge accomplishment! BookBub is a very respected, very prestigious book listing service. Historically, only one out of four titles are accepted, but I'm hearing that the current numbers are more like one out of twenty. For a new author, it's unheard of to be selected. In fact, in a writer's private TwitterX group, I was hearing "How did you *do* that??!" and "I've been trying to get on BookBub for YEARS now..." Second, the title of this thread...
