Eligible Young Men will Automatically be Registered for US Military Draft Later this Year

The federal government plans to automatically register eligible men for the military draft beginning in December, according to a proposed rule published last week.

The Selective Service System (SSS), the government agency that maintains the database of draft-eligible Americans, submitted the “automatic registration” rule change to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs on March 30.

Congress approved automatic registration for the draft last December as part of the 2026 National Defense Authorization Act, must-pass legislation that authorizes funding for military personnel and operations.

“This statutory change transfers responsibility for registration from individual men to SSS through integration with federal data sources,” the agency notes on its website. “SSS will implement the change by December 2026, resulting in a streamlined registration process and corresponding workforce realignment.”

Under federal law, most males between 18 and 25 years old are already required to register with the Selective Service System in case a military draft is authorized. (Read more from “Eligible Young Men will Automatically be Registered for US Military Draft Later this Year” HERE)

Trump Threatens ‘Bigger, and Better, and Stronger’ Military Response if Iran Doesn’t Comply with Deal — or Else ‘Shootin’ Starts’

President Trump threatened to unleash a “bigger, and better, and stronger” military assault on Iran Wednesday if the regime doesn’t live up to its end of a peace bargain.

Trump, in a late night Truth Social post, confirmed that the US forces he surged to the Middle East will remain there until Tehran fully complies with a deal.

“All US Ships, Aircraft, and Military Personnel, with additional Ammunition, Weaponry, and anything else that is appropriate and necessary for the lethal prosecution and destruction of an already substantially degraded Enemy, will remain in place in, and around, Iran, until such time as the REAL AGREEMENT reached is fully complied with,” the president wrote.

“If for any reason it is not, which is highly unlikely, then the ‘Shootin’ Starts,’” he warned, noting it would be “bigger, and better, and stronger than anyone has ever seen before.”

Trump asserted it was “agreed, a long time ago, and despite all of the fake rhetoric to the contrary – NO NUCLEAR WEAPONS and, the Strait of Hormuz WILL BE OPEN & SAFE.”

“In the meantime our great Military is Loading Up and Resting, looking forward, actually, to its next Conquest. AMERICA IS BACK!” the president’s post concluded.

Trump Mulls Punishing NATO Countries that didn’t Assist Iran War Effort: Report

President Trump is reportedly weighing a plan to punish NATO allies that refused to assist the US in the war with Iran.

Under the proposed plan, the Trump administration would pull US troops out of NATO countries that were unhelpful with Operation Epic Fury, the Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday, citing Trump administration officials.

The plan is one of several being considered by the White House to punish members of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, according to the outlet.

Trump has recently threatened to reassess US membership in NATO over the alliance’s lack of assistance with the Iran war and reopening the Strait of Hormuz.

“NATO WASN’T THERE WHEN WE NEEDED THEM, AND THEY WON’T BE THERE IF WE NEED THEM AGAIN,” Trump posted on Truth Social Wednesday night.

Common Pantry Staple Could Fight Deadly Disease Without Antibiotics, Study Suggests

Cholera can quickly become life-threatening, but the best defense might be sitting in your pantry.

New research from UC Riverside in Southern California reveals that a high-protein diet can effectively “disarm” the bacteria, slash infection levels by 100-fold, and stop the disease in its tracks before it turns fatal.

Published in the journal Cell Host and Microbe, the study found that diets rich in casein, the main protein in milk and cheese, along with wheat gluten, could limit cholera bacteria in the gut.

Cholera is a bacterial disease spread through contaminated water and food, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The disease can cause severe diarrhea, dehydration and even death if it goes untreated.

The research team aimed to determine whether harmful bacteria would respond to dietary changes in the same way as other bacteria. (Read more from “Common Pantry Staple Could Fight Deadly Disease Without Antibiotics, Study Suggests” HERE)

US Town Unveils ‘Little Palestine’ Sign

A street sign was unveiled Tuesday night in Bridgeview, Illinois, recognizing the area as “Little Palestine,” according to ABC7 Chicago.

The area of 79th Street to 113th Street houses one of the largest Palestinian-American communities in the U.S., according to ABC7 Chicago. The area is also home to more than 200 Arab-owned businesses, according to CBS News Chicago.

Waseem Al-Wawi, co-owner of Milk Cake Bakery, said he is “proud” to be part of the “Little Palestine” community.

“As a Palestinian walking here in the Little Palestine area, seeing all these businesses, all these Palestinian businesses, you can find anything you want,” Al-Wawi told CBS News Chicago.

“There’s a big Palestinian community here, we’re very proud to be part of little Palestine here in Bridgeview,” he said.

Israel Pounds Lebanon Despite ‘Fragile’ Ceasefire

Israel unleashed a bombing campaign in Lebanon on Wednesday despite a recent ceasefire agreement between the United States and Iran.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) stated in an X post that it “completed the largest coordinated strike across Lebanon since the start of Operation Roaring Lion,” targeting Hezbollah headquarters, military arrays and command centers. President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reportedly agreed that fighting in Lebanon could continue during a phone call in the lead-up to the ceasefire, Axios reported.

At least 89 people have been killed and more than 700 wounded in the strikes Wednesday, The Associated Press reported, citing Lebanese Health Ministry figures. More than 1,500 people have been killed since the conflict began in March, with another million displaced.

Hezbollah had stopped its attacks early Wednesday morning as the ceasefire took effect, Reuters reported, citing three Lebanese sources.

“Hezbollah was informed that it is part of the ceasefire – so we abided by it, but Israel as usual has violated it and committed massacres all across Lebanon,” senior Hezbollah lawmaker Ibrahim al-Moussawi, told Reuters. (Read more from “Israel Pounds Lebanon Despite ‘Fragile’ Ceasefire” HERE)

Woman Charged With Sending Classified Army Info To Journalist

Federal authorities arrested and charged a former military support employee Tuesday, accusing her of knowingly funneling classified information to a journalist over a period of years.

Agents arrested 40-year-old Courtney Williams of Wagram, N.C. A federal grand jury later indicted her for violating the Espionage Act after transmitting sensitive national defense information to unauthorized recipients, according to the press release. Prosecutors say Williams, who once held a Top Secret/Sensitive Compartmented Information clearance, disclosed protected material despite repeated training and explicit legal warnings.

Williams worked with a Special Military Unit from 2010 to 2016, where she had daily access to highly classified operations, tactics, and intelligence, according to court filings. As part of her role, she signed a nondisclosure agreement acknowledging that any unauthorized release of such material could trigger criminal prosecution.

Investigators allege that between 2022 and 2025, Williams maintained sustained contact with a journalist, exchanging more than 180 messages and logging over 10 hours of phone conversations. In those communications, prosecutors say, she shared details that later appeared in published reporting and a book—some of which contained classified national defense information. The journalist identified Williams as a source and attributed statements directly to her.

Authorities also allege that Williams compounded the breach by posting sensitive information on social media. Senior national security officials said the case is a stark example of insider risk.

Professor Of Islamic Civilization Says ‘Get Over It’ To Concerns About Rape Gang Crisis

A Georgetown University professor is under fire for telling people who share concerns about Muslim “rape gangs” to “get over it.”

Professor Jonathan A. C. Brown, chair of Islamic Civilization at Georgetown, posted the dismissive remark twice on X in response to users discussing a link between Islam and an escalating crisis of rape gangs in the United Kingdom, archived versions of the now-deleted posts show.

One post by Independent Member of Parliament Rupert Lowe reads: “There is a link between the rape gangs and one particular religion – we have seen it again and again and again at our inquiry. That religion is Islam. As a country, we must have the courage to face up to that fact.”

Brown responded to Lowe’s post with “get over it.” When another user said Brown’s comment was “absurdly evil,” the professor repeated the cold remark, writing “Get over it” a second time.

NASA’s Moon Mission is a Massive Media Failure, Inexplicably Feeds Conspiracy Theories

. . . NASA’s team of geniuses has been unable to find a way to send any decent cameras on the Artemis II mission. Or if they did, they weren’t used. The Astronauts had their iPhones with them, which was a good idea, so presumably they could have just pointed them out the window and then tweeted the result. If they did that, NASA chose not to highlight most of their pictures. You won’t see many astronaut selfies going viral.

Instead of an endless stream of cool videos and photos of our planet as Orion left, NASA has released THREE photos that their crew took of the Earth. . .

NASA will now mumble excuses about why they can’t get any good pictures, and then throw in some technical jargon about why the mission was important to science despite how boring it looked. They’ll say it matters because it sets up future missions. Doubtless, those missions will also be unable to do basic photography and social media marketing. . . 

Later space footage of [Artemis II] separating was grainy and hard to make out. By the way, when SpaceX has done launches like this, their videos of the rocket are always pristine and beautiful. You see it all. Somehow, despite billions in tax dollars, that’s not something that can be accomplished by NASA.

When the mission arrived at the moon a few days later, we watched the flyby live feed, which largely consisted of two women sitting in front of the camera spinning word salad and occasionally explaining why we can’t see anything. When Orion came around the dark side of the moon and returned to contact with Earth, we still saw nothing. While looking at nothing, we had to sit through a crew member reading a boring, grandiose, pre-prepared speech.

Alex Jones Calls for Removing Trump from Office: ‘How Do We 25th Amendment His Ass?’

By People. President Donald Trump is facing backlash from a once-outspoken supporter amid his escalating threats against Iran.

During the Monday, April 6, episode of his self-titled show, longtime MAGA ally and right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones called for the 25th Amendment to be invoked against Trump.

The 25th Amendment lays out a process by which Vice President JD Vance and the majority of Trump’s Cabinet could declare the president “unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office” and involuntarily remove him from power. In that instance, Vance would be elevated to acting president, and if Trump challenged the move, Congress could make the final decision.

During the episode of The Alex Jones Show, guest and former attorney Robert Barnes shared his belief that “Trump has lost his mind.”

“I mean literally, what we should do is have Vice President Vance tackle him, take him to the basement of the White House, that new bunker they’re building under the ballroom,” Barnes said. (Read more from “Alex Jones Calls for Removing Trump from Office: ‘How Do We 25th Amendment His Ass?’” HERE)
