A resident of Springfield, OH, has told a city commission meeting that locals are being displaced from their homes to make way for Haitian migrants. The man, who has not been named, said the federal government was paying “triple the rent” for Haitians arriving in the town, thus incentivizing landlords to prioritize immigrants over existing residents. Addressing the city commission, the resident – who said he’d worked with the homeless community for more than 25 years – said he didn’t know of “a single homeless Haitian in this town because they all got vouchers” from the federal government. A resident...

It might not be such a “Love Story” after all. Taylor Swift’s endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, may turn more voters away than it attracts. A new post-debate poll from YouGov released Saturday found that 8% of voters said the pop superstar’s nod is either “somewhat” or “much more likely” to convince them to cast their ballot for the Democrat. But a whopping 20% said they are “somewhat” or “much less likely” to vote for former President Donald Trump’s opponent now that Swift has spoken. Advertisement

A CNN host discovered what we have all known for years, what Kamala Harris says and what she does are two totally different things.

Vice President Kamala Harris is facing widespread ridicule over a past statement wherein she claimed her grandmother would travel to rural Indian villages with a “bullhorn” to advocate for abortion access among local women. During a keynote speech at the Madeleine K. Albright Luncheon in 2017, Harris, who was a newly elected Senator from California at the time, began by sharing a story of her personal background and how her grandmother championed “reproductive healthcare” in India. Harris relayed that she comes from “a long line of tough, trailblazing and phenomenal women,” recalling how her grandmother would visit villages armed with...

After eight decades of dormancy, the US Marines have restored a historic World War II airstrip on Peleliu, a small island that is part of the Pacific nation Palau. This strategic move, completed after months of repairs by US naval engineers, saw the landing of a KC-130J long-range tanker aircraft on June 22. The move comes amid escalating tensions between China on one side, and Taiwan and the US on the other. The Peleliu airstrip is one of several bases the Americans are eyeing or have already prepared in the context of growing tensions in the South China Sea and...

in a section that asked her to list every position she held in the last 10 years. McDonald’s is absent. McDonald's has not responded on confirming her employment. As the Free Beacon notes, that's a change from how fast-food chains have previously acknowledged presidential candidates who once worked for them.

Democrats never seem to truly believe what they say. At least not when it applies to themselves. How many times have we heard from them that walls are wrong? That walls are racist? That former President Donald Trump was wrong for wanting to build a wall on the southern border to protect Americans and the country? What did Joe Biden and Kamala Harris do the minute they entered the White House? They not only halted Trump's policies that had been working at the border, but they also put a stop to the building of Trump's wall. The former president had...

Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey announced on Tuesday that he has obtained a court order that will force the current administration to take congressionally appropriated cash and use it to finish the border wall that was started by former President Donald Trump to prevent illegal immigrants from flooding into the United States. A press release from the Attorney General’s office features a statement by Bailey where he says, “The Biden Administration has failed to abide by the law to finish the construction of a wall along the southwest border. Joe Biden refuses to carry out his constitutionally mandated responsibilities, so...

The Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) delivered two precedent-setting rulings that could significantly impact former President Donald Trump’s criminal convictions. In a decisive 6-3 decision in the Erlinger vs United States case, the Supreme Court ruled that juries must be unanimous on each criminal count, a standard not met in Trump’s New York case, where the jury returned a 4-4-4 verdict on the underlying crime. This ruling underlines that Trump’s conviction was unconstitutional and must be overturned. During Trump’s New York trial, the judge had instructed the jury that unanimity on the specific crimes was unnecessary, as long...

Accomplice media go all-in on ‘horrible’ Donald Trump story as they run interference for frozen, befuddled Biden.The same dishonest corporate media that want you to believe Joe Biden didn’t freeze up and had to be helped off the stage by a former president has spent an insane amount of time and energy this week reporting on Donald Trump’s thoughts on Milwaukee. “Donald Trump made a brazen bid for support in the vital swing state of Wisconsin on Tuesday by declaring his affection for its biggest population centre, Milwaukee, just days after denigrating it as a horrible city,” the Guardian reported....

The Supreme Court’s delays in deciding Donald Trump’s immunity case are creating a crisis — a collision between a Justice Department tradition and the necessity of an informed electorate. On one hand, voters deserve a verdict in the trial accusing Trump of attempting to interfere with the lawful transition of power after the 2020 election. On the other, the Justice Department customarily respects “election year sensitivities” — not initiating legal actions that could affect an election in the months immediately before it. This looming conflict was easily avoided. Unfortunately, however, the court’s radical conservative majority rejected three sensible ways to...

Six Russian nationals with potential ties to ISIS have been arrested in New York, Philadelphia and Los Angeles in a coordinated sting by law enforcement. Two ICE officials have told the New York Post they arrested the suspected terrorist affiliates last week after the FBI raised the alarm. The suspects are originally from Tajikistan, and they also have Russian citizenship, according to the Post. Anonymous ICE officials told the newspaper a wiretap revealed one of the suspects talking about bombs. 'Remember the Boston marathon [bombing]? I'm afraid something like that might happen again or worse,' one official told The Post....

Hundreds of nursing homes in Florida have been forced to shut their doors over the past five years because of the soaring cost of commercial property insurance in the state. In the five-year period ending in 2023, an average of 146 nursing homes or assisted-living facilities in Florida have closed each year, according to the state’s Agency for Health Care Administration. During that same five-year period, commercial property insurance premiums rose 125% in Florida. Last year alone, annual premiums rose by around 27% in the state, according to Bloomberg News.

Media fact-checks have asserted that the 2020 presidential election in Georgia didn’t have serious irregularities. But more evidence regarding Fulton County’s handling of ballots and signature verification appear to challenge those claims. Numerous issues have been documented regarding the 2020 presidential election in Georgia, specifically in Fulton County. The media repeatedly "fact-checked" these irregularities, despite confirmation of the issues by election officials. This has resulted in former President Donald Trump and other Republicans who raised concerns about election irregularities often being labeled “election deniers” by Democrats and the media. Georgia election officials have recently confirmed issues that occurred in Fulton...

Louise Meijer, an MP for Sweden’s centrist Moderate party, apologised to voters for her previous position on open borders. She regrets “making mistakes” by “pleading for openness and refugees [being] welcome”, she says. Meijer says she “changed her mind” over her views, in an opinion piece for Expressen this week. “Now, instead, I am advocating an even stricter migration policy than the one I opposed at the time,” she says. Political sentiments around migration have shifted swiftly in Sweden, with now even leaders of the Social Democrats saying they favour more strict migration policies. Sweden today is a “completely different...

The numbers are in — Americans do not want illegal immigrants in the country any longer. An online survey conducted by Axios asked 6,251 adults in between March 29 and April 14 whether they support “mass deportations of undocumented immigrants.51 percent of Americans supported the idea. While perhaps 51 percent — a slight majority — may not seem like a lot, it does when looking at the general picture. This wasn’t a survey asking about border security or funding or separating families. It was a survey asking whether respondents agreed with mass deportation, something many people would have considered extreme...

WARSAW, Poland (AP) – Poland’s president on Monday called on other members of the NATO alliance to raise their spending on defense to 3% of their gross domestic product as Russia puts its economy on a war footing and pushes forward with its invasion of Ukraine. President Andrzej Duda made his call both in remarks in Warsaw and in a piece published by The Washington Post. His appeal came on the eve of a visit to the White House, where U.S. President Joe Biden will receive both him and Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk on Tuesday. “Russia´s imperialistic ambitions and...

In a report released on Monday, Politico talked with 18 intelligence professionals, including a number of former Trump appointees who subsequently became vocal opponents of the president, and they issued a warning that the potential purge might "undermine the integrity of American intelligence." According to a former senior intelligence officer, "Trump plans to go after the intelligence community." "He will begin the procedure again, having begun it before. The procedure includes punishing and removing individuals. Trump detractors said that the next president would replace "those viewed as unfriendly to his political agenda with inexperienced supporters," as Politico put it. Former...
