Anyone still clinging to the mythical belief slavery is an evil of the white man in which only minorities suffered, must be dispossessed of that illusion. Jameela Jamil, born in Britain to an Indian father and Pakistani mother, moved to the U.S. in 1996—she’s an actress who spent most of her early career working in a range of activities, getting hired only after misrepresenting prior experience, putting her on the road to Hollywood. Recently, on TalkTV, she went on a racist rant, condemning British white people as “the most evil people in history,” due to their colonization around the world...

Jeff Daniels, Jared Harris bring world leaders to life in smart historical drama[Jeff] Daniels’ Reagan leans heavily on his good sense of humor, a grasp of basic psychology and endless resolve. He isn’t a caricature or a man teetering on the edge of senility. In fact, taking 2024’s “Reagan” out of the equation, it’s the most positive portrayal of the world leader in any Hollywood production. That’s because it hails from Angel Studios, not La La Land. “The Brink of War” isn’t dumbed down, but it’s accessible enough for teen viewers as well as adults. It’s hard to grasp the...

France is in the middle of the month of its deepest summer slumber. The juilletistes are back from their summer vacations but the aoûtiens are still enjoying theirs, and with them many of the businesses outside major cities and those who don't rely on tourists. Much of the country – and certainly everywhere near the water or the scenic hot spots – will appear to be running at half speed if at all, until La Rentrée kicks in at the beginning of September. It's a tradition going all the way back to the Middle Ages, when Pope Gregory IX gave...

“In the third grade our teacher wanted us to draw a picture and then write a story to read to the class based on the picture. I don’t remember what picture I drew, but I know the story I wrote on the paper was not what I had ended up reading to the class. Later that day after grading the papers, my teacher asked me, “Where is the story I had read to the class and why was it different than what I wrote?” She said the one I had read was much better and she wished I had written...

🇺🇸Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem🇮🇱 (8/16/26)[Prayer]Personalities2 Samuel 5:1-4David Becomes King Over Israel 5 All the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron and said, “We are your own flesh and blood. 2 In the past, while Saul was king over us, you were the one who led Israel on their military campaigns. And the Lord said to you, ‘You will shepherd my people Israel, and you will become their ruler.’” 3 When all the elders of Israel had come to King David at Hebron, the king made a covenant with them at Hebron before the Lord, and they...

We are in the dog days of summer here in Washington, D.C., and things are moving slowly, though not slowly enough for those leftist judges who are getting overruled in cases of extreme importance to their political supporters. Safeguarding Mail-In BallotsEveryone who gives it a minute’s thought knows how insecure the mail-in balloting process has been. Who was sent the ballot? Was the recipient eligible to vote? When did they sign it? When was it returned? Countless reports confirm that the process has been rife with fraud. In an effort to safeguard the process, on March 31, 2026, President Trump...

Iran claims that three of its pilots who disappeared after their aircraft were shot down during the war nearly six months ago are alive and being held by Qatar, prompting Tehran to call for international intervention and their immediate release. According to reports published Saturday, a senior Iranian armed forces official said the three pilots were captured by Qatari forces after the Su-24 aircraft they were flying were shot down during fighting in March. The claim represents a dramatic change in Iran’s account of the pilots’ fate. For months, Tehran said it did not know what had happened to the...

Every August, the anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Georgia is accompanied by familiar reflections about missed warning signs, intelligence failures, and a supposedly unexpected turning point in European security. The language has become so standardized that it obscures a far more uncomfortable reality. Georgia did not reveal a new Russia. It exposed a Russia that had been behaving consistently for nearly two decades while much of the West continued searching for evidence that Moscow had fundamentally changed after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Describing the failure to recognize this trajectory as a collection of mistakes understates what actually occurred....

This video reports on a significant legal development regarding U.S. immigration policy. Here is a summary of the key events and topics covered: Ending TPS for Somali Nationals: Legal Victory: U.S. District Judge Allison Burroughs lifted a stay that had previously blocked the Trump administration's move to terminate Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Somali nationals (0:06–0:24). Impact: This decision enables the Department of Homeland Security to proceed with ending these protections, potentially affecting thousands of individuals who lack other legal status (0:27–0:40). Administration's Argument: The administration argued that conditions in Somalia have improved sufficiently to no longer warrant humanitarian protection...

The man arrested for wildly disrupting a Sabbath service at a Midtown synagogue while assaulting two people told cops after he was apprehended, “F–k the Jews,” according to police. Police have filed hate crime charges against Larry Montes, 46, who attacked a congregant and a security guard as he went berserk and charged down the aisle at Central Synagogue, disrupting the sanctity of a peaceful Sabbath service, officials said Saturday. “Do you know who I am?” Montes ranted as he punched a 63-year-old woman and headbutted a 65-year-old security guard as he was being escorted out of the house of...

The Seattle City Council unanimously approved an amendment to its budget on Wednesday that would reallocate $300,000 to fund resources for members of the trans community from across the country who wish to move to Seattle. A leading Seattle Democrat argued for the amendment, claiming there is an “ongoing crisis and displacement of queer, transgender, and gender non-conforming people.” “This amendment responds to the ongoing crisis and displacement of queer, transgender, and gender non-conforming people that are seeking refuge from hostile jurisdictions from across the country,” Councilmember Alexis Mercedes Rinck said at the Finance, Native Communities, and Tribal Governments Committee...

The House of Representatives’ socialist “Squad” could soon start looking more like a platoon. With a wave of far-left candidates winning recent Democratic primaries across the country, the radical group is certain to expand — and wield far greater influence — after the November elections, critics say. The Squad will likely go from seven current members to 14. Two virtually guaranteed additions after the midterms are, like “Squad” founder AOC, from the Big Apple. Claire Valdez — who vowed to implement nationwide rent control if elected to Congress — easily won the primary in June for New York’s 7th House...

Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed will spend Labor Day weekend alongside a Jew-hating Pakistani cleric who has promoted antisemitic conspiracy theories and admitted to forcing his 13-year-old niece into marriage. El-Sayed is scheduled to speak at the Islamic Society of North America's (ISNA) 63rd annual convention, held in Detroit from Sept. 4-7. El-Sayed, whose father-in-law is a founding member of the ISNA—which is affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood—will speak Sept. 5 on the oddly titled panel, "Cultivating God Awareness in a Turmoiled America," according to an itinerary. The convention features a rogues' gallery of notorious Muslim figures who've engaged in...

CHICAGO -- Joshua Báez spent five years working toward his first Major League at-bat. He needed one pitch to make it unforgettable. Then, somehow, he kept going. Báez homered on the first pitch he saw in the Majors, homered again in his second at-bat and then stepped to the plate in the sixth inning and did something nobody in Major League history had ever done. He homered again. Three at-bats. Three home runs. One historic introduction. Báez became the first player in MLB history to hit three home runs in his debut, going 3-for-4 with five RBIs while powering the...

Merchandise promoting the left-wing terror group Antifa were given out for free at Democrat Senate candidate James Talarico’s latest rally, according to Current Revolt. Some of the stickers and buttons read “Anti Fascist Social Club” and “Auntifa,” while others printed the word “Antifa” onto a graphic. Additional merchandise portrayed President Donald Trump as Marie Antoniette, the Queen Consort of France who was executed during the French Revolution, while another ominously read “He’s on the List.” A final sticker read “It’s Okay to Punch Nazis,” sparking reminders to the language used on Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson’s ammunition that conservatives have...

MISSAUKEE COUNTY, Mich., (WPBN/WGTU) -- Detectives from the Michigan State Police worked through the night processing three active crime scenes following the shooting deaths of six individuals, including the suspect discovered in Missaukee County Friday. Investigators said they are continuing to work to find a possible motive for the shootings and have identified the five victims by age and gender but have yet to find a connection between them. Michigan State police said at 11:40 a.m. on Friday, troopers were dispatched to a home on South LaChance Road in Lake Township for a report of a person who had been...

The Early Genocide Propaganda Accusation: Gaza, November 2023, and the Construction of a Twisted Narrative Only weeks after Hamas's October 7, 2023 attack on Israel, false accusations of so called "genocide" was already pushed by Arab anti-Israel groups. The speed with which the term entered public discourse is significant. By November 7, only one month after the Hamas massacre and the beginning of Israel's military campaign, three Palestinian so-called "human-rights" organizations—Al Mezan, Al-Haq, and the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights (PCHR)—were already describing the situation as an imminent genocide. Their joint statement called for an immediate end to what they...

Graham Platner just had an SS Nazi tattoo. Abdul El-Sayed will appear at an event with an imam who praised the Holocaust. I previously mentioned that Chuck Ross at the Free Beacon had reported that Abdul Mohammed El-Sayed will appear at an ISNA conference where one of the speakers will be Imam Tariq Masood who “admitted in a sermon that he forced his 13-year-old niece into marriage, and advised his followers to do the same with their young female relatives. Masood also said it was a husband’s decision whether or not his wife can go to college or must remain...
