Jul 28, 2025 ~ 'Islamic State-Backed Militant Group Attacks Catholic Church in Congo, Nearly Three Dozen Dead'   "The death toll has risen to at least 34 people in a savage attack by Islamic State-backed rebels on a Catholic church in the eastern Congo." #ReligionOfPeace [Islam, Terrorism]
Jul 27, 2025 ~ 'Democrats’ all-electric USPS fleet sees each truck come with a $6.8 million price tag' "Another Joe Biden boondoggle numbering in the billions." "A Biden administration plan to create a ‘green’ fleet of postal vehicles has churned out a mere 250 electric mail trucks in just over two years... The nearly $10 billion project — which called for more than 45,000 battery-powered US Postal Service (USPS) vehicles to be completed by September 2028 — was funded in part by $3 billion in funding from former President Joe Biden’s 2022 Inflation Reduction Act." [Biden, Climate Change, Debt, Deficit, DOGE]
Jul 27, 2025 ~ 'The End of Immortality in Washington'   "Over the last several decades, you could count on your fingers (and maybe a few toes) the number of government programs that have been canceled -- no matter how obsolete, inefficient or wasteful they were, and despite the fact that, in some rare cases, their missions were accomplished. Even Ronald Reagan, who called for the cancelation of scores of programs, couldn't get Congress to end the eternal life-support system. After watching Congress fund even the most inefficient agencies, he famously groused that 'the closest thing to immortality on this earth is a government program.'"   "Last week the seemingly impossible happened. Congress terminated at least a half-dozen major programs, many of which fiscal hawks have been trying to terminate for nearly half a century."   "But Trump is ushering in a much-needed cultural shift in the way Washington operates. He is proving that Washington really CAN get rid of programs that don't work." [Debt, Deficit, DOGE, Politics, Trump Win]
Jul 27, 2025 ~ '99% of terrorism cases in Germany involve Muslims or foreigners' "99% of terrorism cases in Germany involved Muslims or foreigners, with a sizable portion of the suspects hailing from Syria, Afghanistan, and Iraq." 99%!! "This is exactly why the AfD is truly the only political option at the polls." [Immigration, Islam, Terrorism]
Jul 27, 2025 ~ 'Trump Announces $36 Million CBS Settlement' "CBS and parent company Paramount have agreed to pay another $20 million to President Donald Trump, on top of the $16 million they already agreed to pay toward his presidential library" for defaming him by calling him a 'rapist.' This settlement is for the deceptive editing CBS did in VP Harris' 60 Minutes interview to disguise her stupidity to the American people shortly before the election. [Fake News, Harris, Politics, Trump Win]
Jul 27, 2025 ~ 'Columbia University to pay out more than $220M after violating Jewish students' civil rights in massive win for Trump admin' Trump keeps racking up the victories against the enemies of truth, justice and the American way. "The settlement, under which Columbia will agree to submit to independent monitoring to ensure it is complying with merit-based hiring and admissions requirements, is likely to put pressure on other schools — like Harvard University— that have crossed the White House over tolerance of extreme Jew-hatred on campus since the Oct. 7, 2023, attack by Hamas against Israel. The resolution comes after just four months of negotiations between Columbia and Trump, striking a stark contrast with Harvard, which decided to drag the administration into court for stripping the school of $2.6 billion in grants and other funding." [Anti-Semitism, College, Trump Win]
Jul 27, 2025 ~ 'US-Japan Trade Deal Is a Masterpiece' Trump never rests. Deal after deal being inked.   "The deal will ultimately mean more investment, income, innovation, and jobs in the US. Japan has agreed to invest $550 billion, with 90 percent of the profits staying stateside. This means more construction and factories, more research and development, and more employment of Americans."   "Japan also agreed in this landmark deal to open its markets to American exporters by removing trade barriers on automobiles, agricultural products including rice, energy, industrial inputs, and more."   "America is now poised to dominate liquified natural gas (LNG) exports to Japan, which is the world’s second-largest purchaser of LNG. Since the US sits on one of the world’s largest natural-gas deposits, this is a win-win for both nations." [Economics, Economy, Tariffs, Trump Win]
Jul 27, 2025 ~ "Trump Wins Again: Senate Passes $9bn in Cuts to Global Aid, Public Broadcasting [NPR and PBS]." “It’s a small but important step toward fiscal sanity that we all should be able to agree is long overdue,” Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) said. [DOGE, Foreign Aid, Politics, Trump Win]
Jul 27, 2025 ~ "Tom Emmer: Passage of Three Crypto Bills Through House ‘Historic‘" "Not only did President Trump sign the first piece of crypto legislation in the law. We also passed a clarity act and my Anti CBDC Surveillance [Act] with bipartisan support. President Trump ran and won on his promise to make America the crypto capital of the world, and last week, we took a monumental step to deliver that." [Economics, Economy, Trump Win]
Jul 23, 2025 ~ 'U.S. Olympic Officials Bar Transgender Women From Women’s Competitions'   "The U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Committee changed its eligibility rules on Monday to comply with President Trump’s executive order, taking the decision away from national governing bodies for each sport." [Trans, Trump Win]
Jul 23, 2025 ~ Actor Alan Cumming demonstrates why so many socially awkward kids are seduced (groomed) into identifying as 'trans.' Cumming says, "There are actual superheros in real life who walk among us and these superheros are called trans people... trans people are born with something special and magical about them." So by identifying as trans, they become instantly 'special.' Instantly celebrated. Instantly part of the 'victim' class (important for those who believe if you are not a victim, you are an 'oppressor.') And now, they are instantly a 'superheros' who have "something special and magical about them." Compare that to being an ordinary human being. [Trans]
Jul 21, 2025 ~ "‘Gender-Fluid’ Nigerian Poet Turns Out To Be Normal White Guy" His good work would not get published so he adopted an 'oppressed' persona. He purposely wrote garbage poems: “[T]hese pieces all had one thing in common: They were trash." They were embarrassingly bad. Every one got published. One was nominated for an award. Joyce Carol Oates explains the problem white male writers face: "A friend who is a literary agent told me that he cannot even get editors to read first novels by young white male writers, no matter how good; they are just not interested. this is heartbreaking for writers who may, in fact, be brilliant, & critical of their own 'privilege.'" They must be cancelled for their imagined privilege in exchange for privileging non-white, LGBT people to churn out pure garbage and be praised for it. Woke DEI poison in action. [Cancel Culture, CRT DIE Wokeness, Loathsome Left, Racism, Silencing]
Jul 21, 2025 ~ "Karoline Leavitt Celebrates Closure Of Transgender Hospital Programs For Kids: ‘Barbaric Procedures’"   “The president made it a very early priority to sign very strong executive orders to cut off the funding for any hospital or any medical facility in this country that provides such barbaric procedures.”   “Phoenix Children’s Hospital has stopped providing puberty blockers and hormone therapy to minors,” she said. “In California, Stanford Medicine ended sex change surgeries for minors. Children’s Hospital Los Angeles is closing its center for Trans Youth Health and Development surgical program. In Illinois, Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago stopped sex change surgeries.” Huge victories for girls delivered by Trump. [Anti-Science, Loathsome Left, Trans, Trump Win]
Jul 21, 2025 ~ 'Senate Hands Trump Another Win As Funding For NPR, Foreign Aid On Chopping Block' Taxpayer funded left wing propaganda is no more! Conservatives have been talking about doing this for 50 years but Trump got it done. As usual. [DOGE, Fake News, Foreign Aid, Trump Win]
Jul 21, 2025 ~ 'Promises Made, Promises Kept: Egg Prices Fell 19.8% in June, Down 61% Since February' Days after Trump took office, Democrats were making fun of voters saying egg prices are still high! Now, they are down 61% and Democrats have gone quiet about it. [Economy, Loathsome Left, Politics, Trump Win]
Jul 21, 2025 ~ "ICE 'Kidnapping' a Hoax" Another lie that the #FakeNews went all in on. Karen Bass and other Democrat party fools also bought it. An illegal alien made up a story about being kidnapped by ICE and held and forced to deport. She did it to "smear law enforcement." [Fake Hate Crime, Fake News, Illegal Immigration, Police, Politics]
Jul 21, 2025 ~ 'Babylon Bee savages those leftists who keep likening Trump and MAGA to Hitler' Good videos that expose Democrats for being Holocaust denying clowns.   "Temporarily housing people in air-conditioned tents, with flush toilets, potable water, mattresses, edible food, electricity, medical care, and, probably other amenities before returning them to their home countries is nothing like Auschwitz. In Auschwitz, people were housed in freezing, overcrowded conditions. They slept stacked together like sardines on bare boards. Those who were not instantly gassed (as happened in the millions) were starved, beaten, tortured, worked to death, subjected to grotesque medical experiments, and died from epidemic diseases. When they were unable to work, they were slaughtered. And as a reminder, these people were not illegal aliens who were being repatriated to their home countries. Instead, they had been seized from the countries in which they and their families had lived for centuries, to which they had moved legally, or to which they had fled after the Nazis had already chased them from their long-standing homes and, rather than being repatriated, were being exterminated. The difference between the two situations could not be more stark." Yet Democrats trivialize the Holocaust to score political points. [Holocaust Denial, Loathsome Left, Politics]
Jul 21, 2025 ~ "Jasmine Crockett Calls Trump ‘Wannabe Hitler’ Over Epstein Files Controversy" Recently Eric Swalwell said "Donald Trump is America's Hitler." These are ridiculous, unserious people in a ridiculous, unserious party. Holcaust denying clowns. [Holocaust Denial, Loathsome Left, Politics]
Jul 21, 2025 ~ 'WNBA players demand to be paid what they’re worth' This is more delusional than the usual gender pay gap fake narrative. The league loses $50 million a year and only exists due to being subsidized by the actually profitable NBA. Totally clueless. [Economics, Gender Pay Gap]
Jul 21, 2025 ~ 'Bombshell Report Reveals What We've Known All Along About Hillary Clinton's Email Scandal' The Senate Judiciary Committee released a bombshell report today, revealing that Comey's FBI "failed to fully investigate Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server and mishandling of highly classified information during her time as Secretary of State." "This document shows an extreme lack of effort and due diligence in the FBI’s investigation of former Secretary Clinton’s email usage and mishandling of highly classified information,” Grassley said. “Under Comey’s leadership, the FBI failed to perform fundamental investigative work and left key pieces of evidence on the cutting room floor." "According to the Judiciary report, the FBI gained access to a trove of Hillary Clinton's thumb drives, but Comey, then-Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe, and former FBI Special Agent Peter Strzok were completely incurious about the contents." "The thumb drives were never reviewed as part of the Clinton investigation, contrary to the recommendation of a draft FBI memorandum." [Hillary, Hillary Emails]
Jul 21, 2025 ~ "California Burger Chain on Moving Operations to Tennessee: 'Doing Business is Not Easy Here'" A California icon: In-n-Out is moving its headquarters Out. Just like many businesses before it. "Raising a family is not easy here. Doing business is not easy here now." CA is self destructing. [California, Economics, Regulations]
Jul 21, 2025 ~ 'Stephen Colbert Killed The Late Show' Its the latest 'outrage' that Democrats think means the media is bowing to Trump or that Trump controls them or some other dumb thing. The simple reason the show was canceled is that its been losing $40 million a year!   "As the host of the Late Show, Stephen Colbert was annoying, in a direct and palpable sense. He hectored; he sneered; he gatekept for a narrow, pious worldview; and, above all else, he sacrificed jocosity for ideology — a trade that never, ever pays. Under Colbert’s inadequate leadership, the program came to resemble the sort of bedeviled mutt that one might expect if one were to instruct artificial intelligence to produce a chat show, having trained it solely on old episodes of The View. Not only did the product fail to look like America; its architects neither knew what America looked like nor wanted to know what America looks like. It was insular, smug, and self-serious — and, worst of all, it routinely committed the only mortal sin in show business: It was boring." [Fake News, Loathsome Left, Politics]
Jul 20, 2025 ~ "Democrats’ Medicaid Meltdown Totally Ignores Inconvenient Facts" "Democrats have slammed the Medicaid provisions in the Republicans’ One Big Beautiful Bill Act as 'draconian,' but a closer look at the policy changes reveals that reforms are far more modest than the rhetoric suggests." Fun Fact: They like like this all the time. "They ignore the explosive surge in Medicaid spending over the past decade and mischaracterize reforms that mainly target a widely exploited funding loophole and nonworking, able-bodied enrollees." "Medicaid spending will still grow during the budget window, but will just grow a little less than it otherwise would have." "It’s arguable even to call these cuts." [Entitlements, Fake News, Health Care, Loathsome Left, Politics]
Jul 20, 2025 ~ 'Finally: Trump Derails California's No-Speed Rail Boondoggle' "The entire project was expected to be completed five years ago, with service between San Francisco and Los Angeles running continuously." "Fifteen billion dollars in federal funding have already disappeared into this boondoggle" over 17 YEARS and 0 MILES of track to show for it. This is insane even by Democrat party and California standards. Trump is pulling the plug on this taxpayer theft. [California, DOGE, Trump Win]
Jul 20, 2025 ~ 'Clashes Between Druze and Muslim Bedouin Tribes Leave Dozens Dead in Syria' "At least 30 people were killed over the weekend in clashes between Druze militia and Sunni Muslim Bedouin tribes in the southern Syrian province of Sweida." Netanyahu sends the IDF to protect the Druze from the al-Qaeda jihadists. Muslims not only kill Christians and Jews but frequently they kill the 'wrong' type of Muslims. The world ignores it like they ignore black on black crime. The Druze practice a kind of Shiiite Islam. "Israel is committed to preventing harm to the Druze in Syria due to the deep brotherhood alliance with our Druze citizens in Israel, and their familial and historical connection to the Druze in Syria – and we are acting to prevent the Syrian regime from harming them, and to ensure the demilitarization of the area adjacent to our border with Syria," a joint statement by Netanyahu and Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz read. In summary, Muslims kill Christians, Hindus, Jews and other Muslims. Israel steps in to save peaceful Muslims. [Islam, Israel, Terrorism]
Jul 20, 2025 ~ 'The Biden Autopen Scandal' It just got much worse. Biden chief of staff Jeff Zients told the White House, “I approve the use of the autopen for the execution of all of the following pardons.” "Zients’s email shows clear evidence of the White House doing something novel and controversial to make up for the diminished capacities of the president." "Biden granted 4,245 pardons and clemencies in his four years in office, a stunning record that dwarfs the 245 issued by Trump in his first term." "Biden admitted to the New York Times that he did not individually approve each pardon; rather, we are to believe that he developed broad categorical parameters with top advisers and then relied on staff to fill in the names that seemed to fit these bills." The New York Times reports, "Mr. Biden did not individually approve each name for the categorical pardons that applied to large numbers of people, he and aides confirmed. Rather, after extensive discussion of different possible criteria, he signed off on the standards he wanted to be used to determine which convicts would qualify for a reduction in sentence. Even after Mr. Biden made that decision, one former aide said, the Bureau of Prisons kept providing additional information about specific inmates, resulting in small changes to the list. Rather than ask Mr. Biden to keep signing revised versions, his staff waited and then ran the final version through the autopen." [Biden, Crime, Politics]
Jul 20, 2025 ~ John Stossel, 'Big Green' "Environmental groups are now rich. In 2020 (the most recent data available), they collected $8 billion in donations." They "recognize that hysteria generates donations. The oxygen for these organizations is money donated by people who think they're doing good." "So, you give them billions. You think your money goes to 'doing good, like cleaning up rivers or parks? Most of Big E spends very little on that." "The Natural Resources Defense Council and Sierra Club spend your donations on lawyers. The NRDC filed a new lawsuit every 10 days." "The Center for Biological Diversity has more than 70 active lawsuits." ""They have billions of dollars to not build a thing, but just to oppose building things." "The Sierra Club brags: 'Our legal team has stopped thousands of miles of fossil fuel pipelines and dozens of large power plants.' But pipelines are better for the earth than shipping oil by truck." [Climate Change, Energy, Environment, John Stossel]
Jul 19, 2025 ~ 'The Corruption of Scientific Journals Continues Apace'   Greg J. Marchand MD @MarchandSurgery is removed from the BioMed Central Pregnancy and Childbirth journal for questioning why their new Lead Editor, Asiyah Franklin has no qualifications for the job. Her only research has been in DEI topics like 'structural racism and systemic inequities.' She has published nothing which is unheard of for a lead editor. Her very recent degree was from an online diploma mill. Marchand knew this would severely damage the reputation and prestige of this once serious journal.   "I've been canceled! @BioMedCentral just kicked me off their editorial board for pointing out their newly hired "Lead Editor" is a DEI figure that’s NEVER PUBLISHED A PAPER - and received her Phd from an internet school last year!"

Jul 18, 2025 ~ 400 pound black woman is trashing the store. Cop moves in to stop and she starts assaulting the officer.

Jul 17, 2025 ~ "Omar Fateh: Boebert Opposing Free College for Illegal Aliens Is ‘White Supremacy’"   “You’re damn right … and not ‘illegal aliens’ but our neighbors. When you’re not a white supremacist, you can see people for their humanity and not status. It is our duty to serve the needs of ALL Minnesotans.”   That same year, Fateh claimed the United States has a “system of policing, which is systemically white supremacist.”   This is the current state of the Democratic Party...

Jul 17, 2025 ~ 'A Rare and Encouraging Rollback of Government Handouts' "even this watered-down reform is expected to reduce green subsidies by approximately $500 billion over the next 10 years. That's no small feat, especially in a town where "cutting" usually means "slightly slowing the growth of programs we already can't afford." [DOGE, Energy, Trump Win]
Jul 17, 2025 ~ "So This Might Be What ‘Tired of All the Winning’ Feels Like" Here is the summary; the article has the receipts.   "To sum up, the Iranian nuclear program is now smoldering rubble; Europe’s ready to enact tough sanctions on Tehran again; the Russian economy is creaking with strain; NATO’s stronger than ever; the Chinese are holding their export-focused economy together with duct tape; unemployment’s low; inflation’s still mostly okay for now, the stock market is roaring; the tax cuts are preserved; PEPFAR is preserved; Planned Parenthood is so financially squeezed the organization might go under; and the wealthy, snooty, and overwhelmingly left-wing universities finally get to pay those higher taxes they’ve been calling for all these years. All in all, things are going pretty good right now." [Politics, Trump Win]
Jul 17, 2025 ~ 'Most Democrats Still Believe The Russia Collusion Hoax'   We all know Democrats live in a #FakeNews bubble but this is ridiculous.   "Astonishingly, 60% of Democratic voters still think 'the Trump campaign colluded with the Russian government to win the 2016 election.' A whopping 69 percent of liberal voters still cling to the Russia collusion hoax."   This absolutely did not happen but they all have no clue. Just one of the many fake narratives they believe. [Fake News, Politics, Russia Hoax]
Jul 17, 2025 ~ 'DHS Shreds NYT’s False Claims Regarding Texas Floods' "The New York Times claimed that FEMA failed to answer thousands of phone calls after the devastating floods because the Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, fired call center contractors, stating that she waited five days to renew the contracts of the staffers."   However, DHS swiftly debunked the outlet’s false claims.   "FALSE. NO ONE was left without assistance, and every call was responded to urgently," the DHS wrote on X. [Fake Racism, Politics]
Jul 17, 2025 ~ "Kristi Noem Turns Tables After NBC Host Echoes Dems’ Freakout Over ‘Alligator Alcatraz’"   “Democrats have called them cages, though,” Kirsten Welker said.   Noem, “I wish they would have said that back during the Biden administration and back when Democrats were in the White House. And they were piling people on top of each other on cement floors and literally didn’t have two feet to move. They never did that. That’s why this politics has to end. We took cameras in there. We will take cameras in there and show people what these facilities look like. Because if you compare them to what happened under the Biden administration and under the Obama administration, these centers are at the highest levels” [Fake News, Illegal Immigration, Politics]
Jul 17, 2025 ~ 'Mann’s Hockey Stick – Still Crap After All these Years – Watts Up With That?' "Did my own try on the Mann/Marcott/PAGES2K proxy screening routine and created an ensemble of 103 pseudoproxies consisting of random numbers between -2 and +2 for the time 0-2025 AD. To find the “temperature sensitive” proxies (as prescribed for this process) I tested correlation of the random proxies with the NOAA global temperature data set 1850-2025. The chart below shows what I received as average after discarding the negatively and non-correlating proxies. I created global warming from a bunch of meaningless casino numbers, pure noise." @ChrisMartzWX proved the same thing. Using Mann's fraudulent method, he created the 'hockey stick' out of random data. The #FakeNews still loves it though... [Anti-Science, Climate Change, Fake News]
Jul 14, 2025 ~ 'Jasmine Crockett whines about black women and their pay—but unbeknownst to her, she’s using fallacious data'   "We shouldn't need a Black Women’s Equal Pay Day, but here we are. Still underpaid. Still undervalued. 66 cents on the dollar means we lose thousands every year, for doing the same job. Over a lifetime? That’s hundreds of thousands gone. Pay Black women.

It is nearly impossible for somebody coming from, like, a Midwestern or rural background or southern background to get in,” because of migration and group favoritism in “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion” priorities, he said, adding: "By the way, this doesn’t just affect white people. Obviously, we now see how it’s affecting Jewish people. But it actually also affects African Americans in a very interesting way, which is actually because both the universities and the corporate employers … literally import Africans so that they don’t have to hire African-Americans."

New York, which spends $29,893 per student, ranks around 46th in 8th grade reading and below average in most other categories."   "Even more striking: New York’s per-student spending rose by about 50% between 2012 and 2022, reaching nearly twice the national average, while its NAEP scores have barely moved. Florida’s scores, meanwhile, have steadily climbed. In fact, from 2003 to 2022, Florida improved its average composite score more than any large state in the country." [Education, Entitlements]

The country’s gross domestic product (GDP) jumped 7.7% in April compared to the same month in 2024, far exceeding expectations."   Reminiscent of the 'experts' that predicted economic disaster after Trump's first term.

The first thing any president should say — any president, or anybody in public life, is, ‘Without a border protected you don’t have a nation.’ I believe that. To define your nation, you have to have a border that means something. And there’s a reason we have passports. There’s a reason we have visas. We have a system, and I wish President Biden had been heard more often saying, ‘Well I’m going to enforce the law.’" [Illegal Immigration, Politics, Trump Win]
