A new edition of Tucker Carlson’s newsletter is drawing sharp backlash after he argued that an Iranian nuclear weapon could ultimately be a stabilizing force in the Middle East, prompting critics to accuse him of echoing narratives friendly to the Islamic Republic. In the essay, Carlson reportedly contends that the chances Tehran would ever launch a nuclear strike are effectively zero, describing the use of such a weapon as “suicidal” for any regime. He contrasts that with the United States, noting it is the only country to have used nuclear weapons in war, and suggests Washington treats that history as...

A suspected arson attack has caused a widespread power cut in Berlin since Saturday. Authorities said on Sunday that it was a result of a politically motivated attack by “left-wing extremists". Around 45,000 households were left without electricity in southwest Berlin after high-voltage power lines were damaged by a fire, which authorities have described as a politically motivated attack by far-left extremists.

President Donald Trump’s administration on Thursday designated four European left-wing groups as terrorist organizations, following through on his vow to crack down on leftists after the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. The networks targeted by Trump’s Republican administration all appear to be based in Europe, with no operations in the United States. They are an Italian anarchist front that sent explosive packages to the then-president of the European Commission in 2003, two Greek networks believed to have planted bombs outside riot police and labor department buildings in Athens, and an anti-fascist group whose members were prosecuted by German authorities...

21st Century SocialismThe attempt to destroy democracy in Latin America.  The Obama administration started out on the wrong foot in world affairs. It used techniques better suited for domestic political campaigns — popularity contests — in its foreign policy. In our own hemisphere, the result was confusion for our allies and our enemies alike. The overriding objective of U.S. policy — in Latin America and elsewhere — should be to advance U.S. national interests, not to curry favor with foreign leaders. If we can be liked while advancing our interests, so much the better. But when we try to befriend...

Meanwhile, I’m still banned from entering Britain solely because I dare to criticize Islam. Britain has chosen its fate, and that fate will surely come: conquest, Islamization, and the subjugation of the native community. “Migrant responsible for killing 269 people in deadly bombings wins appeal after being refused asylum,” by Richard Jeffries, GB News, December 1, 2025: A Sri Lankan national who faced arrest in connection with the devastating 2019 Easter bombings has succeeded in his appeal against the Home Office’s rejection of his asylum claim.

From 7/7 to Manchester 2025 – the story they refuse to tellAfter the Manchester synagogue attack, I began tracing two decades of Islamic terrorism in Britain – uncovering a disturbing pattern hidden in plain sight. This is not prejudice. It’s record-keeping – and a warning about policies putting us all at risk.ManchesterI didn’t learn about the Manchester synagogue terrorist attack until I opened my phone after Yom Kippur had ended. I had also missed messages from my cousin, who had witnessed the event and been evacuated from her home by the police.By 7:30 the following morning, I had already traced...

At my direction, US Treasury is investigating allegations that under the feckless mismanagement of the Biden Administration and Governor Tim Walz, hardworking Minnesotans’ tax dollars may have been diverted to the terrorist organization Al-Shabaab. Thanks to the leadership of President Donald Trump, we are acting fast to ensure Americans’ taxes are not funding acts of global terror. We will share our findings as our investigation continues.

CARACAS, Venezuela (Reuters) - A bomb exploded in western Venezuela near the frontier with Colombia on Wednesday, damaging the headquarters of a local ranchers' association which had denounced cross-border activity by leftist Colombian rebels, witnesses and police said. No one was injured in the early morning explosion which tore through the car park and the entrance of the building in San Cristobal in Tachira state, shattering windows and scattering debris. Officials said two men were arrested in connection with the explosion. The blast came four days after a bomb badly damaged a Caracas office building where Venezuelan government and opposition...

The aircraft carrier Gerald R. Ford and three warships have been sent to the Caribbean, where they are joining a dozen Navy warships already off the coast of Venezuela, in an unprecedented show of military force. President Trump and his administration are taking aim at the administration of Nicolas Maduro, over his alleged role in the drug trade which presents a national security threat to the United States. It’s clear that if the US succeeds in destabilizing and displacing President Maduro’s regime, it would be a blow to the region’s drug traffickers. What is less known is that it would...

A Dallas Muslim community leader will be deported after an immigration judge ruled he provided “material support” to the Holy Land Foundation, the Richardson-based charity whose leaders were convicted in a major terrorism financing case. Marwan Marouf, 54, a Jordanian national who has lived in the United States for roughly 30 years, has served as the public relations and fundraising director for the Muslim-American Society’s DFW chapter. He has been held in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody since September. The Dallas Express previously reported that ICE arrested Marouf in September and charged him with lacking a valid entry...

The latest brutal act of Afghan refugee terrorism claimed the lives of two brave members of the National Guard in D.C.. Since their arrival in the United States, Afghan ‘refugees’ have been involved in violent attacks, in assorted crimes, and in sexual assaults on women and girls.The attack by Rahmanullah Lakanwal took place a mere week after another Afghan, Abdullah Haji Zada, was sentenced to 15 years in prison in the Election Day plot.Abdullah and Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi, his Afghan brother-in-law, a former ‘guard’ at an American facility in Afghanistan, had plotted a mass shooting attack directed at “large groups...

President Trump just gave a brief address to the nation regarding the National Guard shootings. The address is just under 5 minutes in length.

Watch as a radical Imam in Florida sobs uncontrollably at a press conference, triggered by bold American patriots simply savoring a bacon sandwich near a mosque. This is another blatant demand to erase American traditions and impose Sharia rules on everyday Americans! In the face of unchecked border invasion flooding the United States with anti-freedom ideologies, real patriots are pushing back: exercising their God-given rights to eat, speak, and live FREE. No more cowering to tantrums. America First means bacon stays on the menu!

Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX: Today, I designated the Muslim Brotherhood and Council on American-Islamic Relations as foreign terrorist and transnational criminal organizations. This bans them from buying or acquiring land in Texas and authorizes the Attorney General to sue to shut them down.

Texas stands on the brink of conquest. Not by tanks or terrorists storming our borders in the open – no, the invasion advances silently through unchecked migration, exploding birth rates, and calculated land grabs that plant Sharia seeds deep in our soil. Look at London, once the throbbing heart of the British Empire, now a rotting corpse called Londonistan. Church bells lie silent while the muezzin’s wail blasts from minarets five times a day. Halal butchers dominate entire streets. Gangs of robed enforcers patrol neighborhoods, dictating what women wear and what infidels say. London’s Muslim population exploded to 15%, turning...

Federal prosecutors have filed additional terrorism-related charges against six additional people in connection with the July 4 shooting outside the Prairieland immigration detention center near Alvarado, Texas, with six other defendants scheduled to enter guilty pleas. The latest indictment was issued Friday and expands on earlier charges. According to the Associated Press, the new counts relate to President Donald Trump’s declaration of Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization. The violence occurred on July 4 outside the Prairieland facility, which is southwest of Dallas. Prosecutors say a group of suspects set off fireworks, vandalized vehicles and opened fire on responding officers....

In this video, I explain why my old crew would never back defunding police or Marxist policies, how our neighborhood code demanded law and order, and what would happen if we let a communist marshal our streets. Get ready for an insider’s look at the principles that once ruled the underworld—and why they’d move heaven and earth to stop this mayor.
