* A Fitchburg, Massachusetts family were terrorized and put in grave danger after they declined vaccinations for their nine-month-old baby on religious grounds. * The parents, Isael Rivera and Ruth Encarnacion, were arrested and charged with “familial kidnapping” after fleeing to Texas to avoid the Massachusetts Department of Children and Families (DCF) and local police. * The coercive and vindictive pediatrician who reported the parents to DCF is under scrutiny for overstepping boundaries, and violating the family’s fundamental rights. * The case has sparked national outrage and calls for reform in how DCF and law enforcement handle parental decisions regarding...

The entire world is now anxiously observing what the 47th President of the United States is doing with world trade. For this nation we might say – it is about time. All the voices are resounding with yeas and nays, here is the one voice you should not ignore. It did not originate with me, but rather, it is ancient and immutable – it is prophetic. The idea of a worldwide economy is as old as the Tower of Babel. Trying to become one-world is as old as man. Lately the term “New World Order” has begun to crop up...

If there is a single moment in time in which the fate of Western civilization was decided, it is the battle of Marathon, 490 BC. The Persians under their king Darius landed in Greece, only 26 miles from Athens itself. A vastly outnumbered Greek force marched out to meet them. The Persians had already conquered huge swathes of the Middle East and South Asia. A relative handful of quarrelsome Greeks seemed unlikely to pose much of a challenge to them. But they were. When the day was done, the Persians were vanquished. The idea of Persian invincibility was destroyed forever....

An activist group supporting Karmelo Anthony, who is accused of murdering fellow teenager Austin Metcalf at a Texas track meet, posted a bizarre POV-style video on social media showing their security team escorting the alleged killer from jail after he made bond. In the clip posted by the Next Generation Action Network (NGAN), a member of the organization’s security team shakes the teen’s hand and tells him to “get behind us” and “just stay close” as they walk past the media while leaving the Collin County Jail. One female reporter shoves a microphone in Anthony’s face and asks if he...

Starting in 2016, how many of us heard the phrase “bash the fash” or “punch a Nazi” somewhere? I know I heard it or saw it all over the place. Those who espoused such things argued that this kind of thing was acceptable because the threat was so dire. They had every right to resort to violence in the face of what they argued was violence. Of course, no one actually did anything to hurt them, but it didn’t matter because they’d already rationalized it in their minds. Most of those who said it were big on talk, short on...

At 9:31 a.m. EDT yesterday, Katy Perry, in full hair and makeup wearing a designer cobalt blue bodysuit, was ready to make history. As she boarded flight NS-31 to make an 11-minute roundtrip journey to the edge of outer space, she endeavored to “put the ass in astronaut.” Which is so cool and brave to admit, given that she’s probably the first person ever to say those words in that particular order.

Every once in a while, you run into something that strikes a chord with you and makes your head nod. You’ll say to yourself, “Yeah, that’s not just true, it’s incandescently true.” And scrolling through X on Wednesday, I stumbled on just such an item: Brenden Dilley @WarlordDilley So far this week, I've learned that...If you murder white teenagers.OrAre an illegal immigrant gang banger and wife beater.Democrats will throw all of their money and political power behind you.Boy, he’s not kidding. Except Dilley’s observation is a little incomplete, because it misses a pair of other news items that help to...

Perhaps we look to the European harbingers to anticipate where this might lead. The Muslim community is still giving us reasons to be concerned about their participation in American culture. A development in Texas has set off an alarm bell for several organizations in East Plano, and I don’t think they are over-reacting: A proposed housing development anchored by a mosque in Josephine, Texas, has triggered a wave of political and public backlash, with Governor Greg Abbott and other state officials launching multiple investigations into the project. While backers of the development say it is meant to foster community among...

Pam Bondi’s ability to manage the Department of Justice has come under increased scrutiny from the right. File releases are delayed or mismanaged. No apparent action is taken against subversive government officials. And J6ers and other victims of a weaponized DoJ remain unsatisfied. Many have raised the question of whether Pam Bondi was the right choice for MAGA attorney general. Many more, including President Trump, would be questioning her bona fides if they knew about Bondi’s role in the creation of Black Lives Matter. How Trump handles the DoJ will be crucial to the success of his second term. His...

It’s game of clones!The dire wolf — a species that disappeared 13,000 years ago and was made famous by the beloved HBO series “Game of Thrones” — is making a comeback, thanks to the first-ever so-called “de-extinction.” Three dire wolf pups — aptly named Romulus, Remus and Khaleesi — were successfully born using DNA from ancient dire wolf fossils and genes from their closest living relative, the gray wolf.The extraordinary results were revealed Monday by Colossal Biosciences, the same Texas-based genetic engineering company that created the adorable colossal woolly mouse. “Our team took DNA from a 13,000-year-old tooth and a...

(The Center Square) – The Biden administration not only released a record number of known or suspected terrorists (KSTs) into the U.S. but also gave them Social Security numbers and taxpayer-funded welfare benefits, according to a new analysis by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). DOGE posted its latest findings of alleged government waste, fraud and abuse, fully funded by Congress, in a post on X. “Under the Biden administration, it was routine for Border Patrol to admit aliens into the United States with no legal status and minimal screening,” DOGE said. It’s referring to the more than 14 million...

An incoherent New Jersey mom was allegedly caught on police bodycam video slurring her words after she drunkenly plowed into a truck with her three young daughters — and open bottles of wine — in her SUV. Megan Fackler, who admitted to working for the Garden State’s DOT, was arrested over the alleged drunken ordeal in Ewing Township, N.J., last October, newly released footage obtained by Transparency Bodycam shows. The mother had allegedly drifted into incoming traffic and crashed her 2020 Chevrolet Traverse into the truck after taking her kids — aged 8, 7, and 4 years — to dinner...

The focus right now is on talks with Iran and the Iranian nuclear program. That makes sense. We are on the brink of seeing Iran go nuclear and the entire Middle East go up in flames. There is another grave danger getting much less attention, however: the possibility that Islamic terrorists may acquire nuclear weapons. When Joe abandoned Afghanistan to its fate, the American people were told that there would be no serious repercussions for their own security. The Afghans might be abandoned to the tender mercies of 6th-century barbarians, but we would be just fine. This was, like most...

(CNN) - US District Judge James Boasberg ruled Wednesday that “probable cause exists” to hold Trump administration officials in criminal contempt for violating his orders in mid-March halting the use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport alleged Venezuelan gang members. The judge is still deciding punishment and the next steps he may take, and is giving the Justice Department an opportunity to respond.

Key Points JPMorgan Chase this week began suing more customers it has accused of stealing funds from the nation’s largest bank in last year’s so-called “infinite money glitch.” The bank is now going after customers who allegedly stole amounts below $75,000, which means it is filing complaints in state courts, instead of the federal venues it chose last year. The bank has also sent letters to more than 1,000 customers demanding they repay funds since October. ****************************************************************** JPMorgan Chase this week began suing more customers it has accused of stealing funds from the nation’s largest bank in last year’s so-called...

The unhinged vagrant who attacked a decorated Delta Force vet with a brick in a shocking broad-daylight attack in the East Village is now locked up on $25,000 bail. James Lawson, 44, who already had five busts and an open case on his rap sheet, appeared with his face covered in bruises as he was arraigned Monday night and shipped off to Rikers Island in the Sunday morning attack on vet Mark Antal. Antal, 54, was waiting for his daughters outside a pilates studio near his Manhattan home when Lawson allegedly ordered him to get off “his street” shortly before...

Well-meaning liberal Americans sympathize with the Arab-Palestinian cause because of the group’s determined, decades-long struggle against Israel’s superior military might. Recently, that favoritism among Democrats for the first time shifted to a majority who support the Palestinians over Israel. But if supporters of the Palestinians knew the whole truth, as the Palestinians tell it, they might reverse their sympathies. Indeed, when we listen to what the Palestinians say, and what they do, their underdog image is betrayed by belligerent goals, cruel methods and values anathema to Western civilization.

A congressional hearing this week offers profound insight into the values we’ve grouped behind the imperfect labels of “left” and “right” in contemporary politics. At issue: the monstrous behavior misleadingly described as “gender-affirming medical care” for children. The most important of the witnesses in this House subcommittee hearing was Dr. Eithan Haim, the surgeon who was prosecuted by the Biden-era DOJ for revealing to the public that Texas Children’s Hospital was lying when it announced that it had ended gender procedures for its pediatric patients. You can watch the whole thing here: [Video at Link] I’ve written about Dr. Haim...

Back on February 14, I had a post titled “How Much Of This Has Been Paid For By The U.S. Taxpayer?” The post asked that question about a sample of issues held dear by the Left: migrant caravans, services in the U.S. to illegal aliens, DEI and climate alarm. Over the intervening weeks it has become clear that the general answer is “a lot of it,” but the details will be slow to emerge. For example, you can go to the website of DOGE and get an endless list of hundreds of contracts and grants that have been reduced or...
