The US leader called the peninsula "massive and beautiful"WASHINGTON, December 9. /TASS/. Former US President Barack Obama forced the Ukrainian government to give up Crimea in the face of Russia’s push to take it back, US President Donald Trump said in an interview with Politico daily on Tuesday. "Every time I look at that map, I say, oh, this Crimea’s so beautiful. Wow. It’s surrounded on four sides by ocean. It’s only got a little piece of land to get to... the main [land]. I mean, Crimea’s massive," Trump said. "... it’s four sides of ocean in the warmest part....

TEGUCIGALPA, Honduras — Followers of ousted Honduran President Manuel Zelaya decided Sunday not to form a political party and take part in 2013 elections, saying conditions are not in place for a democratic process. Instead, some 1,500 delegates to the first general assembly of the People's National Resistance Front, known popularly as Resistance, opted to eschew elections and push for the Central American nation's constitution to be rewritten, an effort that was begun by Zelaya and led to his ouster. "The conditions are not right to go to an electoral process," Zelaya's wife, Xiomara Castro, said in a speech Saturday....

The shriek of whistles and a cacophony of cars honking have taken on new meaning on the streets of major U.S. cities in recent months — a warning to all those in earshot that immigration enforcement is nearby. The warning tactics from activists have become popular in cities recently targeted by Border Patrol immigration operations. Jill Garvey, a co-director of the pro-democracy group States at the Core, said during the first nationwide virtual “ICE WATCH” training session hosted with the help of community organizers from Chicago on Nov. 21. More than 500 people attended the online training session from dozens...

Former Guantanamo Bay detainee Mohammed Jawad is in Afghanistan and will be released into his family's custody today. Jawad was arrested by Afghan police in December 2002 for allegedly throwing a grenade into a vehicle containing two U.S. troops and an Afghan interpreter. In July, a judge granted his writ of habeas corpus; Justice Department officials had 22 days to determine whether they would attempt to try Jawad in a criminal court in the U.S. Despite talk of new evidence, ultimately they didn't file any new charges.

On Wednesday, an Afghan national ambushed two National Guardsmen just steps from the White House. What was he doing here? Well, the suspect, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, arrived in the U.S. in September 2021 through Operation Allies Welcome, in the aftermath of Biden’s botched withdrawal from Afghanistan. Of course, Biden's administration assured Americans that every Afghan entering under that program went through strict vetting. Few believed it then, and it certainly rings hollow now; the shooting looks like a direct consequence of recklessness that defined Biden’s withdrawal. And Charlie Kirk not only warned us about this, but also believed it was intentional....

Mr. President, a US Army surgeon and lieutenant colonel, Dr. Terrance Lee Lakin, once requested of his chain of command to authenticate his orders as legitimate and legal to redeploy to a combat theater of operations and was soon after court-martialed for failing to show up for his unit’s deployment after he received no confirmation. Dr. Lakin was sentenced to Ft. Leavenworth military prison. He was dishonorably discharged from service when he was very close to a lifetime of benefits. He was stripped of his rank. His good name has been sullied because he inquired of his chain of command...

President Donald Trump told Just the News on Sunday morning that he will designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a foreign terrorist organization, striking a blow against a group long blamed for destabilizing the Middle East and radicalizing young Muslims. "It will be done in the strongest and most powerful terms," Trump said. "Final documents are being drawn." The president's announcement came just days after Just the News published a long expose on the Muslim Brotherhood's activities and growing concerns inside the Trump administration. Trump has been considering the move since his first administration. The Muslim Brotherhood is an Islamist group...

The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) “collects, evaluates, and disseminates vital information on economic, military, political, scientific, and other developments abroad (emphasis added) to safeguard national security.” So why are they so involved in Obama’s life? Because he worked for them and shoveled money to the CIA when he was the president, like the $1 billion for Operation Timber Sycamore where U.S. Special Forces trained Islamic fundamentalists who carried out a reign of terror. Obama worked for Business International Corporation, a known CIA front, for a year in 1984. Besides Obama, the CIA also employed his grandparents, mother and stepfather, and...

I’m probably in a minority of one, but I’ve concluded that Michelle Obama is a pitiable woman because she is incapable of happiness. Mind you, she’s not a harmless woman, because she uses her bully pulpit to spread her misery by making other people, especially women and minorities, equally dissatisfied, paranoid, and hate-filled, but there’s still something pathetic about a woman who has everything yet still sees herself as the victim. Michelle’s latest rant was about hair. (snip) But for Michelle—because she’s a leftist and the personal is always political—the fact that the current style is for lustrous straight hair...

2 years of contact between Obama Admin and Epstein! Code? They asked Epstein for Dating advice.

I'm old enough to remember when the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) passed. It was 2010, and I had just joined Twitter the previous fall while I was on maternity leave following the birth of my second son. That means I recall exactly how Obamacare's passage unfolded. It was forced on an unwilling American people by the Democrats, who shoved it through Congress without a single Republican vote. Many people, myself included, warned it was a bait-and-switch scheme that wouldn't lower healthcare costs but would usher in single-payer socialized medicine. Now that we're facing another negotiation on Obamacare subsidies, it's time...
