Has it gotten to this? Not just illegals voting in elections, but taking it to the next step. They now lord over us as city bureaucrats -- amounting to an illegals ruling class. What else can one conclude from this City of San Diego memo to city employees about how to evade ICE enforcement? 🚨San Diego City Hall just issued a guide to its employees on how to stall, deny & stonewall @ICE Oddly, City Hall seems most worried about ICE asking about city staffers. Are there employees working for the city illegally? What is @MayorToddGloria trying to hide?… pic.twitter.com/0yIpIgcdgf...

Hamas terrorists tortured, gang raped, abducted, and desecrated the corpses of their victims, the vast majority of...

MSNBC host Jen Psaki said Monday on “Inside” that the Trump administration was orchestrating a “hostile takeover of the U.S. government.” Psaki said, “Okay so we all have our coping mechanisms for this moment or we’re developing them at least. And I’ve kind of settled into wanting to know more about what’s happening and most importantly, what can be done to stop it.” She continued, “I invite you to join me in this, because the more our eyes are wide open, and the more we stop ourselves from looking away and just talking about just how terrible it is, the...

MSNBC host Joy Reid said Monday during the inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump that it was tough to watch the “takeover of the United States by a base mentality of greed and corruption.” Reid said, “The promise of the incoming administration is to wipe away the civic memory of Washington, to get rid of and to fire all of the people who normally transition as civil servants from one administration to the next. The promises on the table are 200 some odd executive actions, an attempt to get rid of birthright citizenship, an attempt to do mass deportation.”

The saga of Donald Trump's threats to take over Canada escalated as an Ontario politician floated a counteroffer to buy two U.S. states. While Trump's idea of Canada becoming the 51st U.S. state is largely seen as a major troll, the president-elect seems to be getting more and more serious about the idea. After Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced on Monday he is resigning as the country's leader, Trump credited himself with the move and noted people in Canada 'love' the idea of being a state. In response to Trump's threats, Ontario Premier Doug Ford suggested that Canada should...

Leftist billionaire and Democratic mega-donor George Soros has been leaning on the Democrat-controlled Federal Communications Commission for months in hopes of fast-tracking his group's acquisition of over 200 radio stations in over 40 markets — including stations that run shows from Glenn Beck, Mark Levin, Erick Erickson, Sean Hannity, and Dana Loesch. On Wednesday, the FCC reportedly adopted an order to approve the purchase, meaning that in a matter of days, Soros will likely take control of communications to over 165 million Americans with the help of unvetted foreign investors whom Democrats have spared from the FCC's customary national security...

Shares of Intel jumped 3% Friday as The Wall Street Journal’s Lauren Thomas, Laura Cooper, and Asa Fitch reported that Qualcomm has approached Intel about acquiring it for perhaps as much as $90 billion, citing multiple unnamed sources. The “massive” deal, as the authors put it, is financially daunting, as Qualcomm has just $13 billion in cash and equivalents on its balance sheet against $13 billion of long-term debt. Even a mostly stock exchange would require some large debt raise. Intel, moreover, already has $19 billion of net long-term debt. The deal is much larger than Qualcomm’s attempted acquisition of...

A Denver law firm, hired to look into an alleged gang takeover of an Aurora apartment building, says they found the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang began taking over the Whispering Pines Apartments in late 2023. Since then, the gang has engaged in violent assaults, threats of murder, extortion, strongarm tactics, and child prostitution as they have exerted a "stranglehold" on the Aurora apartment complex.

A wild video of a street takeover in Los Angeles speaks volumes about life in contemporary America and the infatuation with attention in the age of social media. In the footage shown live on the Kick streaming platform, the action begins when a silver pickup truck is spinning donuts around a barrel with fire roaring out of it as a huge group of people are gathered around to check out the City of Angels’ popular spectator sport. While driving in circles, the driver loses control, careening off course and plowing into the crowd that was gathered on the street.

For the second time in a week, a plane from the Israeli flagship airline El Al was targeted by hostile elements trying to divert the aircraft from its planned course. The newest incident involved a plane traveling across airspace on Saturday night where the Iran-backed Houthis reside; Somalian sources insisted to the Israeli broadcaster Kann that a group in Somaliland that issued false instructions to the flight crew was responsible. Suggestions were made that the effort was an attempt to steer the plane toward dangerous areas. But the plane’s staff used other communication methods to avert any trouble, cross-referencing data...

They once plotted insurrection in Britain. Young, middle-class, and angry, they were the vanguard of a generation of disaffected Muslims that, at its most extreme, gave rise to the July 7, 2005, transportation bombers. But now, in one of the most visible assaults on political Islam from within the British Muslim community, a network of ex-radicals launched on Tuesday a movement to fight the same ideology that they once worked to spread. The Quilliam Foundation – named for a 19th-century British convert to Islam – aims to propagate a tolerant and pluralistic view of Islam among young Muslims who are...
