Surrounded by lush forest and built around a historic ship port, Prince Rupert could easily be the picture on a postcard. But this Canadian coastal town is now so dangerous Walmart has closed its local supermarket due to fears for staff safety. The only Walmart within a 144km radius, the budget supermarket is a lifeline for many of the low-income residents in the town, and will be a huge loss for families. Nestled between the Great Bear Rainforest and the Skeena River, the town of 12,000 has become an unlikely breeding ground for crime, drugs and homelessness. Local business owners...

A well-funded, highly organized effort is underway to destabilize the United States and crush conservative voices. This is not the organic unrest of grassroots activism. This is a calculated, strategic assault executed by Soros-funded NGOs, their operatives working in concert to disrupt, intimidate, and silence. From violent attacks on Tesla dealerships to the swatting of conservative influencers, from the hijacking of GOP town halls to the doxxing of DOGE employees, this effort bears all the hallmarks of an orchestrated conspiracy. If these actions are coordinated and funded with the explicit goal of suppressing political opposition, they are not examples of...

This is the modern Left: VIDEO AT LINK................. Non-political people are starting to pay attention and are beginning to learn who Charlie Kirk actually was. They're also learning what kind of people these leftist activists are.

At what point will Leftists start asking themselves whether they're the bad guys here? A grieving Colorado family put up a memorial to Charlie Kirk in their backyard. It wasn't long before deranged leftists set it on fire and vandalized the cars parked in their driveway. 👇 A family in Colorado put up a beautiful memorial along their fence to honor Charlie.Vandals BURNED IT DOWN and SMASHED their car windows.These vandals are evil.Will @GovofCO condemn this??

Vandalism has been reported at the Louisiana Democratic Party headquarters located in downtown Baton Rouge. On Friday, the word “murderers” was found spray-painted in red in the organization’s parking lot.

A Democratic state senator, elected school board member, multiple representatives of the NAACP, and a passel of taxpayer-supported public defenders have been charged with felonies for tearing down a Confederate statue and nearly killing a man. You’ll remember the June 10th incident, which was widely mocked for being a play-stupid-games, win-stupid-prizes moment, when those pulling down the statue didn’t bother to see who was standing in its path. Any levity over it, however, instantly vanished when the man suffered severe brain damage from the incident. That horrific sight triggered an investigation, resulting in the felony charges Portsmouth, Virginia Police Chief Angela...

Red graffiti can still be seen spray-painted over the Israeli flag that's hanging on the Weitzman National Museum of American Jewish History in Philadelphia's Old City neighborhood. The museum said this vandalism, which happened early Monday morning, is the second incident in two weeks. "Appallingly, vandalizing Jewish institutions has become a daily occurrence in America. The Anti-Defamation League reported over 9,000 cases of antisemitism just this past year. Unfortunately, the Weitzman National Museum of American Jewish History has become part of that statistic," Dan Tadmor, the president and CEO of the museum, said.

In a shameful act of vandalism, the grave of Captain William Lytle, a Revolutionary War hero, was found destroyed in a Murfreesboro, Tennessee, graveyard, leading local patriots to set up a GoFundMe in support of the grave’s restoration, along with repairs to other surrounding headstones that were vandalized. For background, on August 13, 2025, local press accounts confirmed that the grave of Captain Lytle, along with headstones belonging to members of his family, was found destroyed, with local members of the Tennessee Society of the Sons of the American Revolution (SAR) responding by working to restore the site as quickly...

It was, the prosecutor declared, a “moronic mission” of historic proportions — a pair of hapless vandals who chopped down perhaps the most beloved tree in England, located in a gap in Hadrian’s Wall, a UNESCO World Heritage site built by the Romans. The victim of the brutal 2023 chainsaw massacre, the Sycamore Gap tree, appeared in the 1991 movie “Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves” starring Kevin Costner. Prosecutors, citing experts, said it was worth 458,000 pounds or about $613,000, though to admirers who viewed it as a symbol of the untamed beauty of the north, it was priceless. At...

A violent suspect who was arrested trying to shut down a pro-Daniel Penny rally in Manhattan was out on bond for a leftist domestic terrorism case in Atlanta. Teresa Yue Shen, 31, of Brooklyn, was one of several far-left militants charged with domestic terrorism in January in Atlanta, following a deadly shooting incident at an Antifa-linked autonomous zone occupation at the heart of the “Stop Cop City” movement. Shen’s $20,000 bond was fronted by far-left activist Daniel Hanley. The Atlanta Solidarity Fund, a project of 501(c)(3) nonprofit Network For Strong Communities, has been raising cash for Antifa and domestic terrorism...

The Manassas Republican Party headquarters in Virginia was vandalized over the Independence Day holiday weekend, the National Republican Congressional Committee announced Monday. Located about 45 minutes outside of Washington, the Manassas GOP headquarters had spray paint on its building with the word “fash” written, almost certainly a short form of the word “fascist,” a common Democratic epithet against Republicans for decades. Urine was also splattered on the windows. The NRCC said in its press release that one Virginia Democrat, in particular, has been fearmongering and refuses to condemn the attack. “Fearmongering Democrat Eugene Vindman must condemn this disgusting attack. To...

This dentist sure has a dirty mouth. Elmo Randolph, 68, turned himself into police in the upscale Bergen County borough of Closter on Thursday after being caught scribbling a swastika on a parked car. Randolph, of Orange, was charged with fourth-degree bias intimidation, according to the Daily Voice, which shared video footage of the alleged crime. In the footage, captured by one of the car’s many cameras, a baseball cap-donning Randolph is seen in his car on June 15, parked next to a Tesla Cybertruck outside Gary’s Liquors in the Closter Plaza. He then opens his car door, leans out,...

Duffy sent a letter to all 50 state governors, the D.C. mayor, and Puerto Rico’s governor, a letter which he also shared with The Daily Signal. Trump’s transportation secretary told the governors to work on removing distractions, including woke political symbols, from roads and intersections. In the letter, Duffy wrote, “Roads are for safety, not political messages or artwork. Today I am calling on governors in every state to ensure that roadways, intersections, and crosswalks are kept free of distractions.” He added, “Far too many...
