  • What if Ukraine falls? This is no longer a hypothetical question – and it must be answered urgently

    For 40 cruel and bloody months, Ukraine has fought the Russian invader. Since February 2022, when Moscow’s full-scale, countrywide onslaught began, its people have faced relentless, devastating attacks. Tens of thousands have been killed or wounded, millions have lost their homes. Ukraine’s industries, shops, schools, hospitals and power stations burn, its fertile farmlands are laid waste. Its children are orphaned, traumatised or abducted. Despite repeated appeals, the world has failed to stop the carnage. And yet Ukraine, outnumbered and outgunned, has continued to fight back. Ukrainian heroism amid horror has become so familiar, it’s almost taken for granted. But as...
  • Trump administration sues California over egg prices and blames animal welfare laws

    WSPA channel 7 (CBS) ^ | July 11, 2025 | STEVE KARNOWSKI, Associated Press
    The Trump administration is suing the state of California to block animal welfare laws that it says unconstitutionally helped send egg prices soaring. But a group that spearheaded the requirements pushed back, blaming bird flu for the hit to consumers’ pocketbooks. The lawsuit, filed in federal court in California on Wednesday, challenges voter initiatives that passed in 2018 and 2008. They require that all eggs sold in California come from cage-free hens. The Trump administration says the law imposes burdensome red tape on the production of eggs and egg products across the country because of the state’s outsize role in...

    The rest of the DC setup is transparently clear. (1) Goldberg held the story until the day before a long-scheduled Senate Intelligence Committee hearing. (2) The SSCI then used the hearing to blast the heads of the Trump administration intelligence silos on the issue of “classified” information in the text messages. ♦ The next act in this well-known performance will be for Democrats to demand the release of the Signal App transcript, if it’s not classified, then there’s nothing to hide. ♦ Public pressure via narrative drum-pounding will continue to increase, until the chat messages are released to congress.

  • Canada’s parochial panic about Trump’s America is ridiculous

    The Hill ^ | 03/10/2025 | Andrew Latham
    In his recent address before Congress, President Trump delivered a clear and unflinching message: The U.S. will no longer squander its power on utopian projects or endless commitments to a fading rules-based international order. Instead, his administration will focus on hard-nosed realism, prioritizing national interests, blunting the ambitions of revisionist powers and shoring up America’s defenses. This is not a vision for a new Cold War but a pivot to a grand strategy of restraint — a shift long overdue and one that will inevitably reshape the contours of global power. There is a growing, almost hysterical, strain of thought...

    The jihadist terror organization Hamas reacted with outrage to President Donald Trump’s unprecedented proposal on Tuesday for the United States to seize the Gaza Strip and turn it into a global resort destination, calling Trump “irresponsible.” Hamas is a genocidal radical Islamist terror group backed by Iran whose objective is the destruction of the Israeli state. Gaza was plunged into a brutal war following Hamas’s decision to invade Israel on October 7, 2023, killing an estimated 1,300 people and abducting dozens of others. Hamas terrorists tortured, gang raped, abducted, and desecrated the corpses of their victims, the vast majority of...

    Former National Security Adviser John Bolton claimed Friday on CNN’s “Newsroom” that President Donald Trump talking about taking back the Panama Canal and not ruling out using military force “makes us look ridiculous.” Host Jim Acosta said, “I just wanted to get your take on what Trump said during his inaugural speech earlier this week that the U.S. should take back the Panama Canal. Do you take that seriously? And what does that mean, take back the panama canal? Does he mean some sort of military operation or pressuring the Panamanians to hand it back over to the U.S.?” Bolton...

    Thursday on CNN’s “News Central,” Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) called President-elect Donald Trump a “carnival barker” making “ridiculous” threats. When asked about Trump’s recent comments on the Panama Canal and Greenland, Wasserman Schultz said, “It is utterly preposterous to suggest that we are going to send our military in to Panama to, quote, take back the Panama Canal. As I said, we have a treaty with Panama, we have a free trade agreement with Panama. We are no more going to take back the Panama Canal than Panama is going to come in and try to take the Mississippi...

    In their annual one-house budget resolutions, Democratic majorities in the state Assembly and Senate laid out their negotiating position for this year’s budget deal with Gov. Hochul. They’ve decided to spend more — $13 billion more than the governor’s already-record $233 billion executive budget. And tax high earners and corporations more too, despite Hochul’s opposition.

    Center for Individual Freedom ^ | May 5, 2005 | Michael Lynch
    The government’s action in imposing CAFE standards, which was intended to curb oil consumption, helped prompt the creation of the SUV and subsequent “gas guzzling.” Oil exploration in Alaska’s Artic National Wildlife Refuge has once again become possible, if not probable, after the U.S. House of Representatives recently passed a major energy bill. Environmentalists reacted by renewing their call for raising Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards in order to lower American consumption of oil and decrease fuel emissions. But CAFE has proven itself a failure.The Energy Policy Conservation Act of 1975 established CAFE standards as a reaction to the...

    California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) dismissed a question from Fox News host Sean Hannity Wednesday night asking if he’d consider accepting the Democratic nomination for president in 2024. “Yes or no, will you ever, ever accept the Democratic nomination to run for president in 2024 under any circumstances at all? That’s a yes or no,” Hannity asked Newsom during Fox’s coverage after the second GOP presidential primary debate. “I’m looking forward. I was just in Chicago with the DNC,” Newsom said. “I don’t need the long answer. I want the yes or no answer,” Hannity pressed the Democrat. “Of course...

    Building on historic action to protect Illinoisans from gun violence and just a day after the Illinois Supreme Court upheld the state’s assault weapons ban, Governor JB Pritzker signed the Firearm Industry Responsibility Act (FIRA) into law, holding accountable gun manufacturers who knowingly caused harm from unsafe marketing practices. Governor Pritzker signed the bill alongside lawmakers and gun control advocates at Gun Sense University, an annual training conference of more than 2,000 Moms Demand Action and Students Demand Action volunteers and survivors, hosted by Everytown for Gun Safety. “Today, I proudly signed the Firearm Industry Responsibility Act into law —...

    Points made by Goodman: Trump and RFK Jr. on the same ticket is "probably not likely" but, 1. RFK Jr., based on articles he has authored, and Trump have similar foreign policy views. For example, they both oppose "never-ending military conflicts". 2. Many Trump supporters will gravitate towards RFK Jr. because of his anti-covid vax viewpoints. 3. Trump and RFK Jr. both speak their minds and aren't afraid of the media. 4. RFK's economic policies are similar to Trumps, based on his interviews and writings. Under Trump we had record high household income and record low poverty, which RFK Jr....

CNN correspondent Kyung Lah took to Twitter on Friday and detailed how their rental car was vandalized as she was conducting an interview at City Hall. "Got robbed. Again," Lah wrote. "[CNN producer Jason Kravarik] & I were at city hall in San Francisco to do an interview for @CNN. We had security to watch our rental car + crew car. Thieves did this in under 4 seconds. Security stopped the jerks from stealing other bags. But seriously- this is ridiculous."...

    Tucker Carlson could scarcely believe what he was reporting. It was one of the most dastardly plots ever. Tucker Carlson dropped a bombshell about how Joe Biden asked Mike Pence to betray Trump. In discussing classified documents turning up at Mike Pence’s home in Indiana, Carlson explained to viewers that this was part of an anti-Trump strategy gone awry. “So here’s the latest example of unexplained weirdness in the news,” Carlson continued. “Mike Pence, of all people, has just swooped in to save Joe Biden. Yes. Mike Pence, a man so flamboyantly pure, he won’t have dinner with ladies not...

    I do not expect King Charles to see this letter to him. But Freepers might be able to make a worthwhile comment or two. I need your fellowship, my friends. Australia never had a national revolution and so can seem permanently revolting as the emotional agonies of its stupidities from that lack of freedoms buck against the lies of modern PC crap. I created an art display at Douglas MacArthur's waterhole in Morotai, Indonesia, (where my dad camped in June 1945 on the way to battle) at a place on that nation's national heritage register and was then attacked by...
