Top California Democrats have moved to officially strike disgraced union boss Cesar Chavez‘s name from an official state holiday — saying they’ll pass a bill to rename to celebration before the end of the month. Gov. Gavin Newsom said Thursday he’ll support a plan to rebrand March 31 — celebrated since 2000 as Cesar Chavez Day after the labor activist and accused child rapist — as Farmworkers Day. California Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas and Senate President Pro Tem Monique Limón are scrambling to pass the bill before the end of the month. “The farmworkers’ movement was always bigger than just...

Donald Trump was overwhelmingly elected by the American people to be our President and Commander in Chief. As our Commander in Chief, he is responsible for determining what is and is not an imminent threat, and whether or not to take action he deems necessary to protect the safety and security of our troops, the American people and our country. The Office of the Director of National Intelligence is responsible for helping coordinate and integrate all intelligence to provide the President and Commander in Chief with the best information available to inform his decisions. After carefully reviewing all the information...

🚨 JUST IN: Sen. John Fetterman MIC DROPS the pro-Palestine left who RELENTESSLY demanded a "ceasefire" after Oct. 7th "The Democrats since 10-7 have been WRONG! 'Ceasefire, ceasefire!' IMAGINE if Israel was pushed to a ceasefire in Summer '24. Hamas would still be intact, Hezbollah would be intact, and Iran could very much could have acquired a nuclear weapon by that point!" "But Netanyahu was able to push through that, broke and destroyed Hamas, same with Hezbollah, and was able to go after Iran and break them down." "And then I was the only Democrat that supported President Trump striking...

Shares in the financial technology company Block soared more than 20% in premarket trading Friday after its CEO announced it was laying off more than 4,000 of its 10,000 plus employees, reconfiguring to capitalize on its use of artificial intelligence. “The core thesis is simple. Intelligence tools have changed what it means to build and run a company,” Jack Dorsey said in a letter to shareholders in Block, the parent company to online payment platforms such as Square and Cash App. “A significantly smaller team, using the tools we’re building, can do more and do it better,” he said. Dorsey’s...

Derrick Evans @DerrickEvans4WV15hWow. Our military is even more powerful than I realized.

BRASÍLIA (9 February 2026) — A Brazilian woman, Isadora Borges, is facing criminal prosecution after posting comments on social media expressing her views on gender ideology, exposing her to a possible prison sentence of four to ten years. In November 2020, Isadora Borges made two posts on X (then Twitter), peacefully expressing her views against gender ideology. One comment stated that “transgender” women “were obviously born male.” Another stated: “A person who identifies as transgender retains their birth DNA. No surgery, synthetic hormone, or clothing change will change this fact…” Her comments quickly gained attention online, and prompted Erika Hilton,...

Through family, I heard about a couple in WI who started a small business and were planning to expand. Now, with their ACA premiums TRIPLED due to congressional inaction, they've had to scrap plans to expand & grow. I'm sure that scenario is repeating itself all over the U.S.

EU Europe is increasingly abandoning a civilized approach to dissenting opinions. The raid on the Paris offices of Elon Musk’s company X appears to be just the tip of the iceberg. Today, those who resist are being attacked on multiple levels, while those who submit are largely spared. It is time to increase pressure on Brussels. Elon Musk’s communications platform X has become caught between systemic fronts. On one side stands the American understanding of free speech, which has experienced a political revival under Donald Trump’s new presidency. On the other, an increasingly repressive EU control regime is eroding the...

Republican Sen. Marco Rubio shared an image Sunday showing a bloodied Muammar Gaddafi, the former authoritarian leader of Libya, in the moments before he was killed — drawing criticism from some who read the Florida lawmaker’s message as one of support for United States-led regime change in Venezuela. Rubio’s tweet had no text. It simply contrasted one picture of the authoritarian Libyan leader smiling in a white jacket and sunglasses, alongside another image...

The White House deleted a meme video posted on President Trump’s Truth Social that depicted former President Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle, as apes — after a prominent GOP senator called the clip the “most racist thing I’ve seen” and demanded it be taken down. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt initially defended the post and accused critics of fomenting “fake outrage” — but the video was taken down a little before noon Friday. A White House official added that a staffer had “erroneously made the post. It has been taken down.” Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC), the highest-ranking black...

Remember when Summer Smith alleged in 2021 that her son was "tortured" by white middle schoolers who shot him with a BB gun and made him drink urine? Well, a Judge just ruled that the entire thing was a HOAX. The media and leftist organizations slandered young boys for this FAKE "racially-motivated hate crime." Summers must now pay one of the boys $3.2 MILLION in damages for LYING about him.

Good morning everyone, I'm here in the office and some people are concerned about something I said yesterday, so I want to be crystal clear. I am a proud supporter of the second amendment. I have guns myself, long guns, handguns, and I'm a proud high-heeled gun owner. In fact, I even keynoted an NRA convention. However, you need to be responsible, and every responsible gun owner that I know makes sure that they understand the laws where they are going and understand whatever registration requirements there might be. President Trump's goal here, and my goal as well, is to...

Fishback has never held political office, but has vowed to continue the legacy of outgoing Governor Ron DeSantisA CONTROVERSIAL new “sin tax” idea could see some American workers instantly lose half their income in one hit. The plan has already sparked a furious online feud, with a top earner blasting the proposal as unfair. The fight erupted in Florida, where a Republican candidate wants to slap a 50 per cent tax on OnlyFans creators’ income if they live in the state. The push comes from James Fishback, who told one star to “pay up or quit OnlyFans.” He added: “As...

Leftist cat lady fills up 2 carts at Target and doesn’t buy anything to “protest Trump” … so she’s just harassing minimum wage employees to make herself feel validated. These people need mental institutions.

Last week the UK released an online game called Pathways which was essentially a propaganda game that allows you to play as a new college student that encounters choices that might lead you to become a radical and engage in hate speech or, worse, hate crimes. It's very much pro-immigration. The initiator of most of these "bad" choices is your girlfriend, Amelia, who basically gives the conservative/right-wing viewpoint and whom is considered "bad" in the game. But she has since become a cause celebre. Here somebody made an AI ad of her promoting her views!

Randi Weingarten, the leader of the American Federation of Teachers, has announced that she is leaving X due to "hate" and "disinformation." "It’s time to let X/Twitter go. This platform’s decline from a vibrant public square to what is now a platform for hate, disinformation & manipulation has been painful to experience. Find me & the AFT on Bluesky, Substack, Threads, Instagram, or Facebook," Weingarten announced on Tuesday. Weingarten is active on Bluesky, a liberal-leaning social media platform. Many once-prominent users of Twitter, now known as X since Elon Musk bought it, solely post on Bluesky. Weingarten told Reuters that...

If Britain Bans X, How Far Will It Go To Block Free Speech? COMMENTARY By Ted NewsonJanuary 15, 2026 If Britain Bans X, How Far Will It Go To Block Free Speech?AP In what appears to be a rolling back on free speech and citizen journalism, Britain is fast-tracking a law that will ban non-consensual intimate deepfake images. This is likely aimed at the social media site X.com after its AI assistant Grok allegedly generated inappropriate images. In the scope of the global news cycle and a further ban potentially on the table, the move couldn’t be more poorly timed....
