    Bellingcat's analysis of the strike in Minab on Feb 28th doesn't make sense. At https://www.bellingcat.com/news/2026/03/08/video-shows-us-tomahawk-missile-strike-next-to-girls-school-in-iran/ they show a video of a Tomahawk hitting an IRGC facility. Aerial photos show the blast field for that hit and bellingcat draw a red frame around that blast field. That shows the school outside the blast zone and they also say that the Tomahawk only hit a "clinic" and an earth-covered "magazine or bunker". The first paragraph says the video shows a Tomahawk hitting an IRGC facility. People on Bluesky used this to claim that the Tomahawk hit the school, but this shows the...

    This is from a YouTube video, obviously, but I'm only posting the verbiage from it that goes along with the title of this posting. That section goes as follows: Be cautious of people with podcasts and social media platforms who make money by views, clicks, and the number of followers they have.If they can cause a stir, if they can get a debate, these kinds of things, it will serve them and they will profit from it. They like to cause a stir because they can profit because more people will tune in, listen to their podcast or watch their...

    So I was searching out a school a relative attended in Tuscany in the 30s. The nuns wore a distinctive wimple. As I searched on the wimple, I discovered that according to the first website brought up, that of course wimples were brought back by the Crusaders to the benighted women of the Western culture. Muslims taught western women to use wimples. Because of course Western women were too darned stupid to cover their heads themselves, although they had been doing it for millennia. I have noticed recently that many historical reads say that Islam and Muslims have taught the...

    Paula White-Cain urged attendees of her 2026 Unleashed Conference last week to give a “sacrificial seed” in support of the ministry of her friend Eddie James. The pastor of City of Destiny Church in Apopka, Florida, urged people to give out of obedience to God, and she tied their giving to spiritual breakthroughs. “How many of you want to help me with Eddie James? How many of you want to be a blessing?” she asked. “Because I’m telling you, there’s an anointing of release right now. I want $100,000 to come in. I want $100,000. There are 10 people that...

    What I remember about it is that it is approximately a Victorian era movie or miniseries. The show aired anywhere from the late 70's to late 80's. In the show, it involves an older sister or single mother and two younger children who are taken in by a compassionate wealthy young gentleman, possibly an aristocrat. He tries to raise the children to be fit for his level of society, but the young man becomes resentful of him and ends up stabbing him in the leg when the young man reveals that he is now broke because of bad investments.

    Conservative commentator Josh Hammer unleashed on Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, and Marjorie Taylor Greene during his speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) on Thursday, characterizing the trio as members of the “retard right.” “You probably noticed that things feel a bit off in the conservative movement at this time,” began Hammer, who made an exception for President Donald Trump and his administration. “It is only when we look outside the administration to the conservative influencer class, those who dwell in ‘podcastistan,’ as some now call it, when we see things going perhaps slightly less well.

    A New Jersey man is in legal trouble after he allegedly assaulted the Easter Bunny at the South Hills Village Mall. According to the criminal complaint, a woman working as the Easter Bunny on Monday at the mall was taking pictures with children and families when a man approached her and began to ask her questions, which she referred to an assistant. The man refused and began touching the woman dressed as the Easter Bunny's arm, then the top of her chest, and then grabbed her breasts. According to the assistant, prior to the alleged assault, he asked questions such...

    FBI Director Kash Patel’s personal email has been hacked by an Iran-backed group, the Department of Justice has confirmed. The group, called Handala Hack Team, posted personal photos and other documents including a purported resume to its website, claiming the files were taken directly from Patel’s inbox. Patel “will now find his name among the list of successfully hacked victims,” the group’s website said. A Justice Department official confirmed the hack and said material posted online “appeared to be authentic,” Reuters reported Friday.

    The United States can only determine with certainty that it has destroyed about a third of Iran’s vast missile arsenal as the US-Israeli war on the country nears its one-month mark, five people familiar with the US intelligence tell Reuters. The status of around another third is less clear but bombings likely damaged, destroyed or buried those missiles in underground tunnels and bunkers, four of the sources say. The sources speak on condition of anonymity given the sensitive nature of the information. One of the sources says the intelligence was similar for Iran’s drone capability, saying there was some degree...
  • Zelenskyy Says U.S. Will Not Provide Security Guarantees Unless Ukraine Concedes Donbas Region to Russia

    The more NATO/EU hypocrisy creates friction with President Trump; the less U.S. support exists for Ukraine. That’s the dynamic Zelenskyy is trying desperately to navigate with his EU allies.During a lengthy interview with Reuters, Zelenskyy says he has been directly told the only way for Ukraine to get security guarantees from USA participation is if he concedes the contested Donbas region to Russia and ends the conflict. (snip) That said, when Zelenskyy once again starts asking who is going to pay for the needs of his country, the U.S. taxpayer eyeroll commences. (snip) It’s never enough for this guy. Ukraine...

    Americans are now seeing ICE agents as they shuffle through these historically long airport lines, not arresting and kidnapping! people, but handing out water bottles and shaking hands with the citizens they work to protect. The flame is burning at both ends for the Left: they’re defending illegal criminals at the expense of Americans, while ICE gets a PR boost for dissolving an airport bottleneck that Democrats created. ICE deployed to Atlanta, Chicago, and Houston has drastically improved security wait times — and more importantly, Americans are meeting these officers in the flesh, share a laugh, and realize that maybe...

    On Thursday, the Center for American Progress, a prominent left-leaning think tank that often cultivates policy ideas later adopted by the Democratic Party, proposed a two-year freeze on the prices of 22 food items, such as strawberries and steak. “Price caps interfere with the very basics of a capitalist economy,” said Steven Kaimin, an economist at the American Enterprise Institute who read the Center for American Progress paper before its publication. “Maybe it’s impossible to produce eggs at $3. Maybe the cost of producing them is $3.50. In which case the eggs come off the market entirely, or … only...

    An official from one of the countries mediating between the US and Iran tells The Times of Israel that US President Donald Trump appears to be leaning toward ordering a major US ground operation against Iran, with Washington convinced Tehran will buckle under such military pressure. The official intimately familiar with the mediation efforts says the US privately recognizes that Iran is not likely to agree to the concessions presented in Washington’s 15-point plan and has dispatched thousands of troops to the region in order to capture Tehran’s Kharg Island on Trump’s orders. A second official from a mediating country...
