    BOSTON — Former Vice President Mike Pence on Sunday will receive the John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award for his refusal to go along with President Donald Trump’s efforts to remain in office after losing the 2020 election... The award recognizes Pence “for putting his life and career on the line to ensure the constitutional transfer of presidential power on Jan. 6, 2021,” the JFK Library Foundation said, when it made the announcement last month. Pence will receive the award at the JFK Library in Boston.
  • Democrats’ Impeachment Mess

    The Democrat sponsor of an unprecedented third impeachment attempt of President Donald Trump has a big problem – his own party. Just when liberals finally felt like they were gaining some political momentum after sweeping Republican victories last November, any progress may have already been washed away. On April 28, Rep. Shri Thanedar (D-MI) officially introduced articles of impeachment against Trump, instantly sending the Washington media into a frenzy and the House Democrat caucus into chaos. While Democrats’ first two impeachment cases were thin, bordering on nonexistent, they at least revolved around specific allegations against Trump. This time, however, Thanedar...
  • Vermont, Mohsen Mahdawi, and Mountains of Useful Idiots All it takes is two days of digging to unravel an entire story.

    David Collier ^ | 4.18.25
    Let me tell you the real story of Mohsen Mahdawi, the latest student to have been arrested by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and the PR campaign he launched to publicize his detention and play an entire state of elected officials, turning many into fools, patsies, and mouthpieces to cover his terror-affiliated history. The bottom line here is really scary. Mohsen has 17 years of university experience in total. Almost a decade of those 17 years were spent around US campuses – starting up anti-Israel groups and radicalising students. He does not appear to have a single degree to...

    If it’s not green, it’s not millennial--and that’s a big problem for a company like Uber, or Lyft. Millennials love ride-sharing, but they don’t appreciate the CO2 footprint that comes with it. The immediate problem for Uber is this: The next-generation of ride-sharing is already here--born out of massive millennial demand. It’s green through and through, and it’s set to command some serious market share. Millennials are driving a new mega-trend: impact-investing. Facedrive, the first ride-sharing company that lets you plant a tree while you drive, and choose exactly what kind of footprint you want to leave behind, is leading...
  • School cancels Easter service 'in spirit of inclusivity' and introduces Refugee Week (UK)

    A primary school axed its annual Easter celebration and service to “respect for diversity”. The announcement has been slammed online, with one person expressing concern that Christmas celebrations will be next to go. Norwood Primary School in Eastleigh, Hampshire, circulated a letter to parents and carers telling them that neither their Easter Bonnet Parade nor their Easter Service would be held this year. Headteacher Stephanie Mander, who wrote the letter, justified the state school's move "in spirit of inclusivity". The letter read: "By not holding specific religious celebrations, we aim to create a more inclusive atmosphere that honours and respects...

    Ex-veep nominee Tim Walz slammed President Donald Trump for creating economic chaos on Wednesday ― but he also blamed himself and presidential nominee Kamala Harris in an MSNBC interview. Walz told host Chris Hayes that Trump was the “worst possible business executive that I have ever witnessed.” He also thanked the Wall Street Journal for its scathing editorial on Trump’s tariff war. He said it could help spur the Democratic Minnesota governor’s GOP constituents to rethink their support of Trump. “I think Americans have had it,” Walz explained.”… Look, I own this. We wouldn’t be in this mess if we’d...

    CNN commentator and former Obama advisor Van Jones admitted during a recent podcast appearance that President Trump is “smarter” than “all of his critics” and that he made the entire Democrat party and Democrat media complex “look like idiots.” These remarks came during an interview posted to political commentator Chris Cillizza’s YouTube channel on Friday. Cillizza agreed with Jones’ assessment that “we look like idiots,” commenting, “You’re totally right.” Jones’ revelation is in response to Trump defying all attempts to steal the 2024 election with a sweeping victory on November 5, winning every swing state, 312 electoral votes, the national...

    On Nov. 6, the day after a national election that sent Donald Trump back to the White House, Elijah Graham and Owen King, who attend high schools on opposite sides of the Willamette River, were each greeted by the same Turkish proverb posted on their classroom bulletin boards: “When a clown moves into a palace, the clown does not become a king—the palace becomes a circus.” A similar mood met students across Portland that Wednesday morning. “The air was pretty intense,” says Camila Sahagun, a sophomore at Lincoln High School. Connor Jacobsen, a senior at Benson Polytechnic High School,...

    The cast of “The West Wing” visited Wisconsin to help the Harris-Walz team promote early voting Saturday. Actors made stops in Waukesha, Milwaukee and Madison, Wisc. Actor Bradley Whitford kicked off discussions on the ground with voters alongside Martin Sheen, Dulé Hill, Mary McCormack and Richard Schiff. “Get in the game. Make a substantive contribution,” Sheen said while amping up voters. “If you go down swinging, at least you took your shot. Just don’t watch the pitch go by.” The rest of his speech touched on policy initiatives like climate change and gun laws. “Global warming constitutes a clear and...

    Russell Bentley, 64, who fought alongside pro-Putin rebels in eastern Ukraine, was tortured and murdered by Russian servicemen, Kremlin investigators said on Friday. Bentley, a self-described communist from Dallas, Texas, went missing in the Russian-occupied city of Donetsk in April and was later found dead. Nicknamed “Texas”, he regularly appeared on pro-Kremlin social media channels, backing Moscow’s full-scale military offensive.

    VP Kamala Harris has garnered support for her 2024 presidential campaign from executives spanning multiple industry sectors including Hollywood in a new open letter signed by 88 business leaders. Signatories to the letter, first reported by CNBC, include James Murdoch, founder and CEO of investment firm Lupa Systems and former CEO of 21st Century Fox — whose political leanings are sharply divergent from those of his father, conservative media mogul Rupert Murdoch. Hollywood names on the list include Peter Chernin, co-founder and partner of the Chernin Group holding company; Jeff Bewkes, former CEO of Time Warner; Barry Diller, chairman of...

He added a sobbing emoji. “Like if we don’t want democracy to end we really need to move and push blue...

    The Harris-Biden administration is a boon to Putin. A Trump presidency will destroy all that. Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich and former US Marine Paul Whelen, both of whom have been languishing in the Soviet, I mean, Russian prisons for years on trumped-up espionage charges, have been released. It appears that their release is part of a larger, multi-nation prisoner swap that includes the exchange of prisoners from Germany, Great Britain, the US, and Slovenia on the one side and Russia and Belarus on the other. The basis for the suspicion about the multi-national, multi-prisoner release is the sudden...

    Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu mocked pro-Palestine supporters in a speech addressed to the US Congress on Wednesday (24 July). This marks his fourth Congress speech since Hamas launched an attack on 7 October 2023. The latest death toll as of 23 July stands at 39,670 Palestinians killed and 1,139 people killed in Israel. During his address to Congress, Netanyahu referred to the fast food chain KFC, and called demonstrators "Iran's useful idiots." "I have a message for these protesters. When the tyrants of Tehran, who hang gays from cranes and murder women for not covering their hair, are praising,...

    WASHINGTON — The surge of excitement around Kamala Harris has locked in powerful interest groups and unions, cemented titans of Wall Street and Hollywood, and captured "coconut-pilled" progressives and Joe Biden campaign aides alike. But Harris’ rapid ascent to the top of the Democratic ticket is also animating another important coalition of voters: former Republicans more desperate than ever to turn the page on Donald Trump. Already, Harris has notched Republican support from former Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan. Former New Jersey Gov. Christine Todd Whitman, a Republican, endorsed Biden in 2020. After launching a third party in 2022, Whitman...

    The Democratic Party is bracing for massive protests during the Democratic National Convention, comparing it to another chaotic event from the 1968 convention. As pro-Hamas protests continue to rage through college campuses due to the ongoing Israel-Hamas war, concerns that similar protests will occur during the DNC convention this August in Chicago. Former President Barack Obama’s chief of staff William Daley told the Washington Post that the chaotic college protests that have occurred in the past week have “taken the demonstrations to a different level.” “It portends that you have the potential for big demonstrations. Whether they get violent —...

    What is it with these people? In the latest instance of these antisemitic, hate-spewing, miseducated twerps treating their intrusive thoughts like honored guests, students (and probably more than a few professional agitators, as we have learned) at George Washington University held a "People's Tribunal" putting many of the school's faculty on symbolic trial and demanding their deaths. Yes, really. X account Stu Stu Studios posted footage of the scene featuring a girl speaking through a megaphone, leading chants calling out GWU Provost Christopher Bracey and accusing him of assault on top of the support for Israel and Zionism accusations, chanting,...

    Hundreds of University of California of Los Angeles (UCLA) students converted to Islam and participated in a massive group prayer to Allah on Wednesday night. Just before police officers moved in and dismantled defiant pro-terrorism protest encampments at UCLA, students said Muslim prayers as the sun set over the campus. The pro-terrorism students chanted "Allahu akbar" during the prayer and chanted "Allah is the greatest" of all gods. This is not a university in some Islamic country.This prayer was held at UCLA in California.Perhaps some think this is a harmless prayer, something that we can understand as freedom of religion.And...
