State prosecutors have charged two more migrants as part of an investigation into the trafficking of narcotics and firearms into Chicago by suspected members of the Venezuela-based Tren de Aragua street gang. The men are the fourth and fifth individuals known to be charged in the case. Judge Luciano Panici Jr. ordered Yefferson Camacho Cedeno, 27, and Jose Vasquez Hernandez, 30, detained, calling them “member[s] of a transnational criminal organization.” Camacho Cedeno is a Venezuelan citizen who is “not a legal resident of the United States.” He is charged with two counts of gunrunning and six additional charges tied to...

Apparently, there's an exhibit at the Smithsonian – inside the National Museum of American History – that asks visitors to give their opinions on transgender athletes. Not only that, but the exhibit is sponsored, in part, by sports apparel giant Nike. Jillian Michaels, one of the original "fitness influencers" and a staunch defender of women's sports, brought it up during a segment on CNN, asking why the exhibit exists and why it is promoting a false claim. "[The exhibit]… talks about how it's complex to do gender testing in sports. It's not complex. It's basic science," Michaels said. "Is it...

This is one of Rogan's great video interviews of Anna Paulina Luna on far ranging topics, such as inter-dimensional beings, the Arch of the Covenant, JFK's assassination, UFO's, Remote Viewing, CIA, etc., etc. Definitely, worth a listen for a mind expanding experience.

VIDEOPoll after poll has revealed a STEEP decline in the Democrat Party. One big reason is that most normal people are completely turned off by the LACK of any sign of mental health among the liberals and have no interest to associate with such loons. This video compilation reveals that the most outspoken of the libs are in severe need of being committed to asylums. The good news for them is that PRESIDENT Trump is now advocating for the reopening of the mental asylums that have been closed with the resultant INSANITY you see here.

VIDEOWatch as Jerry Lewis announced in December 1963 that his television talk show was being cancelled. Jerry didn't give the real reason but by his body language and the very subtle hints between the lines he gave us it is more than obvious WHO was responsible for his show's cancellation.

Gaza is starving. Nearly 100,000 women and children are suffering from severe acute malnutrition, and a third of Gaza’s population is going days without eating, according to an expert from the UN World Food Programme. Tons of food sits rotting in warehouses just outside Gaza but the government of Israel will not allow it to be freely delivered. Instead, starving Palestinians must contend with a real-life version of The Hunger Games to try and eat. Over 1,000 desperate Palestinians have been shot dead by Israeli forces since the end of May trying to reach food distribution points run by the...

VIDEOLiberals really HATE the U.S. Constitution because it was designed to make us a republic with a federal system of government. They hid their disdain for the Constitution in the past by pretending they really revere the Constitution but that it must be considered to be a "living" Constitution which means they could interpret it any way they wanted. Now that the dopey "living" Constitution concept has mostly faded away they are more open in their antagonism as illustrated by Chuck Todd and his Chuck Toddcast guest proposing a new Constitutional Convention to basically GUT the current Constitution of its...

The woman found not guilty by reason of insanity after running over a Chicago police officer with his own squad car is now asking the court to let her start anew—by changing her name. Whitley Temple, who was acquitted last year of attempting to murder Officer Ed Poppish during a bizarre 2022 West Side encounter, filed a petition on July 11 to legally change her first name to “Michelle,” according to Cook County court records. Temple fled the scene in the patrol car, briefly stopped at a gas station, then continued onto the Eisenhower Expressway, reaching speeds of 97 mph...

A 52-year-old Waukegan man accused of hiding a woman’s body in a trash can full of bleach couldn’t be jailed under Illinois’ new no-cash bail law when he was arrested in April. But on Saturday, his luck ran out. Federal immigration agents arrested Jose Luis Mendoza-Gonzalez at a Chicago market over the weekend, saying he is a Mexican national living in the United States illegally. And unlike local prosecutors and judges, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) isn’t constrained by Illinois’ SAFE-T Act. Authorities say he concealed the body of 37-year-old Megan Bos of Antioch, who disappeared in February. After nearly...

see this interesting post on X:Male college grads are now just as likely to be unemployed as people who never went to collegeSame is not true for women, who are much more likely to land a job once they graduate collegeThe data is just eye opening. We are leaving young men behind like never before pic.twitter.com/JTnEgO1Vls— Boring_Business (@BoringBiz_) July 18, 2025Young men tend to study subjects that are more relevant/needed for the global economy, whereas women tend to study the esoteric, questionable fields (besides nursing/health) that do not require much rigor...so I'm surprised by this. What's the culprit here?

VIDEOMany have seen, heard, and laughed at Scott MacFarlane telling Chuck Todd about how the angry crowd at Butler, PA gave him PTSD to such an extent that he had to take Trauma Leave. However, few have heard MacFarlane describe his PTSD attack on that very day of July 13, 2024 when he described live on site how he and the rest of the press corps were jumping under the rafters in panic to dodge bullets far away and long after the last shots were heard. Scott's description of how the angry crowd upset him will tear at your hearts...

VIDEOForget President Trump being just millimeters away from being killed. Forget about Corey Comperatore who actually was killed. Forget about the ones who were wounded. Scott MacFarlane of CBS News is the most vocal victim, at least in his own mind, of the Butler shooting. See, Poor Scott is now suffering from PTSD he got at Butler. Not from the shooting itself but because he thought the crowd was nasty towards him. Lack of politeness forced Scott to take trauma leave. Awwww! We must now all grieve in sympathy for a terrified snowflake who got his feelings hurt.

VIDEOThirty-five! THIRTY-FIVE!!! As of the morning of July 16, 2025 there were THIRTY-FIVE AI shills hyping Terry Moran's new Substack. Different voices but with almost identical YouTube videos and scripts featuring the same still shot of Terry Moran arrayed in different ways. Does Terry Moran have multiple loyal fans that think almost exactly alike or is that really YOU, Terry Moran?

VIDEODid you know the Liberal Pink Hat Lady is also a New Age theologian? Here she is in her official Witch shirt hyping Magic Stones as a way to counter the evil Trumpocalypse. And since we are at almost the six month mark of President Donald Trump's presidency that means we are only 1/8 of the way into his Golden Age return which means we still have 7/8 remaining.Moral of the story. If you are a liberal suffering from extreme TDS and can't tolerate political diversity you can take solace in magic stones, Tarot cards, and burning incense in special...

VIDEOHow can that be? My wife had a string of WINS at the Casino today, July 12, 2025, yet we ended up still LOSING to the tune of about $30 to $40. How? Because of horribly LOUSY payouts. In fact our best slots payout today was about what our WORST payout was in June when she also had a string of WINS but WINS with normal to good payouts. We will be taking a break from the casino until early August because it seems that Lady Luck would only joke around with us again if we went back before then.So...

VIDEOThere is a lot of frustration that Jeffrey Epstein's list has not yet been publicly released despite the promise to do so. However, there is universal acknowledgement that the list does have one name for sure at the very top. And now you can hear that person at the very top of the Epstein list complain about the conspiracy theories directed at him.

As a bookworm, I'm naturally the obsessive compulsive buyer that Barnes & Noble seeks to attract. But one of my recent trips to their Frederick, MD store showed me just how much the bookseller giant was willing to go to sneak anti-Trump agitprop into their customers’ information diet. As I was checking out some books for purchase last month, the cashier hawked his company’s “Monthly Pick” to me called Cultish published in 2021 by author Amanda Montell, who apparently became known in part for her third-wave feminist drivel Wordslut: A Feminist Guide to Taking Back the English Language (2019). You...

VIDEOThe HORROR! The absolute HORROR of Alligator Alcatraz!!! The detainees there are being assaulted by mosquitos THE SIZE OF ELEPHANTS! How do we know? Because a Cuban rapper detainee told us so via his cell phone from inside Alligator Alcatraz. On that same cell phone call he also informed the world that the detainees are suffering from freezing tents due to being tortured by air conditioning. Yes, rather than allowing the prisoners bask in the natural hot tropical humid temperatures, they are being forced to endure unnatural freezing air conditioning.I must admit that I was skeptical of claims of a...

VIDEOBANG! WOOSH!Canadians have a reputation for being polite. So when Canadian golfers get into a fight they courteously make sure to provide the appropriate sound effects as you can see here. It looked so much like a scene out of a Batman TV episode that I felt obligated to provide the proper visuals to go with the sound effects. So what is the moral lesson that can be taken from this video? It's that when you down enough Molsons on the golf course, you end up feeling no pain. WOOSH!!!

VIDEOThe level of HYPOCRISY from this deluded Leftist is astounding. He wants to boycott Etsy for the "high crime" of allowing Alligator Alcatraz merch to be sold on its site but not a word of complaint from him over Commie merch being sold on Etsy. Examples of the latter include violent Commie Che Guevara and murderous Mao who caused the mass starvation of millions of Chinese during the failed Great Leap Forward. Plenty of prison merch is also sold on Etsy such as Folsom Prison and San Quentin merch but the Left only gets upset over Alligator Alcatraz. BTW, if...
