Tucker Carlson Rages at Trump Over Easter Tirade: ‘Who Do You Think You Are?’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Tucker Carlson slammed President Donald Trump on Monday, a day after the president fired off a profanity-laced threat against Iran.

Trump has grown increasingly frustrated amid his ongoing war with Iran, which responded to U.S. and Israeli bombardment by restricting travel through the vital Strait of Hormuz, through which 20% of the world’s oil flows. On Easter, the president took to Truth Social to deliver an ultimatum.

“Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran,” he wrote. “There will be nothing like it!!! Open the F*ckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell – JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah.”

Carlson, who opposes the war, was irked by Trump’s f-bomb, but took particular umbrage at the president’s “Praise be to Allah” dig:

Artemis II Reports Strange ‘Squiggles’ and Unexpected Shades of Green on the Moon

/0 Comments/in , /by

The four astronauts on NASA’s Artemis II mission to the Moon shared fresh descriptions of the Moon, noting its winding features dubbed “squiggles” and its surprising shades of green and brown.

Communication ceased at the conclusion of a 6-hour pass during which the crew made history simply by gazing through their windows, becoming the first people to witness the far side of the Moon firsthand. Contact was restored after an intense 40 minutes without radio transmission for the first time in 50 years. Moments before this groundbreaking achievement, their observations seemingly caught them off guard.

Geometric markings carved into the landscape, winding features the crew dubbed “squiggles,” and a surprising array of greens and browns were among the sights that met NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover and Christina Koch and Canadian Space Agency astronaut Jeremy Hansen as their Orion capsule sailed over territory no person had previously observed up close. . .

Before communications ceased, Glover delivered what proved to be an appropriate send-off, referencing the teachings of Jesus, including the commandment to love your neighbor as yourself, before concluding with a phrase that held dual significance.

“We will see you on the other side,” he said. (Read more from “Artemis II Reports Strange ‘Squiggles’ and Unexpected Shades of Green on the Moon” HERE)

Chinese Researcher Dies at Scandal-Ridden University of Michigan after CCP Alleges ‘Hostile’ US Interrogation

/0 Comments/in , /by

Chinese researcher at the University of Michigan died on campus in March, shortly after federal agents allegedly questioned him.

UM has recently gained national attention after at least six of its Chinese researchers were charged in 2025 with attempting to smuggle biomaterial into the United States. U.S. Attorney Jerome Gorgon Jr. referred to the scandal as “a long and alarming pattern of criminal activities committed by Chinese Nationals under the cover of the University of Michigan.”

Danhao Wang, an assistant research scientist at UM’s College of Engineering, died after falling to his death.

Melissa Overton, the deputy chief of police for the university’s Division of Public Safety and Security, told the Michigan Daily that the incident was being investigated as “a possible act of self-harm.”

“On March 19, at approximately 11:00 p.m., officers from the University of Michigan Police Department responded to a report of a subject who fell inside the George G. Brown Building,” Overton told the news outlet. “A faculty research assistant was found after falling from an upper level and was later pronounced deceased.” (Read more from “Chinese Researcher Dies at Scandal-Ridden University of Michigan after CCP Alleges ‘Hostile’ US Interrogation” HERE)

Israel Sold Trump On War With Shaky Intel Pitch: REPORT

/1 Comment/in , /by

Israeli leaders convinced President Donald Trump to launch strikes on Iran with a plan some administration officials described as “farcical,” a new report claims.

U.S. cabinet officials such as CIA Director John Ratcliffe voiced skepticism of Israel’s plan for attack and regime change in Iran just weeks before the war began, the New York Times reported on Tuesday. However, Trump appeared to have already been sold on the plan after a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the Situation Room on Feb. 11.

The plan laid out by Israeli officials in a top-secret meeting at the White House included killing the ayatollah, weakening the regime and installing a secular leader to take over the nation. But several top officials, including Vice President JD Vance, doubted the possibility of the U.S. and Israeli forces to conduct a full regime change.

“Sir, this is, in my experience, standard operating procedure for the Israelis. They oversell, and their plans are not always well-developed. They know they need us, and that’s why they’re hard-selling,” Joint Chiefs of Staff General Dan Caine reportedly said in the Situation Room meeting the following day.

“In other words, it’s bullshit,” Secretary of State Marco Rubio reportedly said. . .

Trump remained set on killing the ayatollah and destroying the Iranian military anyway, NYT reported, adding that instituting a full regime change would not be the U.S.’s problem. (Read more from “Israel Sold Trump On War With Shaky Intel Pitch: REPORT” HERE)

American Families Could Be Paying Price Of Iran War For Years To Come

/0 Comments/in , /by

Whether the Iran War ends in two weeks or two months, global markets may not stabilize for years.

Since President Donald Trump launched Operation Epic Fury on Feb. 28, Iranian retaliation has successfully shut the Strait of Hormuz. With the international oil trade at a near standstill and the Pentagon spending tens of billions on the war effort, U.S. consumers are footing the bill.

“Bottom line: I believe we have seen the last of sub-$3.00 per gallon gas prices and sub-$80 per barrel oil prices, at least for the remainder of my lifetime,” energy industry veteran David Blackmon told the Daily Caller News Foundation.

An oil supply crunch means paying more for gasoline or any commodity that needs transportation, like groceries and fertilizer. Increased deficit spending drives up interest rates, making mortgages and car loans more expensive. Even if the conflict stopped immediately, global markets may take months or even years to recover.

U.S. gasoline prices move alongside Brent crude, the global benchmark oil blend. For every $10 Brent increase, U.S. gas rises roughly 24 cents per gallon. Since striking Iran, the American Automobile Association (AAA) national gas average price increased from $2.98 to $4.11. Sudden restrictions to global supply often drive up Brent crude’s price, as occurred when Russian exports dipped following the Ukraine War’s 2022 escalation.

Powerful Three Words Heard on First Radio Signal from Downed Airman — Trump’s Response Draws Scrutiny

/5 Comments/in , , /by

By Daily Mail. An F-15 airman who was stranded in Iran was rescued on Saturday night, but a message he radioed made Trump fear that the US military was being lured into a trap.

The unidentified airman, who President Donald Trump has described as a ‘brave warrior,’ got trapped behind enemy lines after his fighter jet was shot down over a remote area of Iran on Friday.

A pilot who was with him safely ejected the aircraft and was rescued by two military helicopters that same day, but the airman remained missing for nearly 48 hours while hiding in a mountain crevice with nothing but a handgun to protect himself.

In an interview with Axios, Trump said the airman had given an unusual message after ejecting from the fighter jet that aroused suspicion. The message was: ‘Power be to God.’

Trump told the outlet: ‘What he said on the radio sounded like something a Muslim would say.’ (Read more from “Powerful Three Words Heard on First Radio Signal from Downed Airman — Trump’s Response Draws Scrutiny” HERE)

US special forces rescue second F-15 airman from Iran

By Military Times. U.S. special forces rescued a downed airman in Iran in a complex operation that averted a potential crisis for President Donald Trump, as the war entered its sixth week with little sign of progress in diplomatic efforts for a resolution.

Trump announced the rescue in the early hours of Sunday in a social media post that described the operation, in a mountainous area of Iran, as “one of the most daring Search and Rescue Operations in U.S. History.”

The airman, the weapons officer of an F-15 jet shot down on Friday, was wounded but “will be just fine,” Trump said in a message on X posted by Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt. The pilot of the aircraft was rescued on Friday.

A U.S. official said the operation, which Israel said it had assisted, involved dozens of military aircraft and encountered fierce resistance from Iranian forces.

Iran’s military said several U.S. aircraft were destroyed during the operation, including two military transport planes and two Black Hawk helicopters. Footage posted on social media showed burned out aircraft wreckage, which Reuters verified was in the area. (Read more from “US special forces rescue second F-15 airman from Iran” HERE)

Mysterious Christian Artifact Found Near Jesus’ Ministry: ‘No known parallel’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Archaeologists have uncovered a one-of-a-kind artifact near the Sea of Galilee that may reveal new details about how early Christians practiced baptism.

The 1,400-year-old artifact was recently found in the ancient city of Hippos, a prominent bishop’s seat during the Byzantine era, according to a March 30 press release shared with Fox News Digital.

The city was once the only Christian city around the Sea of Galilee, controlling territory associated with Jesus’ ministry.

The marble block was found in a hall of baptism called a photisterion. It may shed light on “a stage of the early Christian baptismal rite that has until now gone unrecorded,” officials said.

Hippos’ cathedral had two baptismal halls: one for adults, and another for infants and children, which is where the new object was found. (Read more from “Mysterious Christian Artifact Found Near Jesus’ Ministry: ‘No known parallel’” HERE)

Reporter Asks Trump If God Is On America’s Side In Iran

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A reporter asked President Donald Trump if God is on America’s side in the war with Iran during a contentious presser on Monday.

Trump shared a series of posts on Truth Social Sunday, including several on the rescue of an American servicemember trapped behind enemy lines. He also issued warnings to Iran over the Strait of Hormuz, writing in one “Glory be to GOD!” and in another, “Praise be to Allah.” At his White House press briefing on Monday, a reporter asked the president whether he believes God supports the U.S. in Iran.

“You’ve said glory be to God in this conflict,” the Washington Post reporter began. “Do you believe that God supports the United States actions in this war? And—”

“I do, because God is good,” Trump interjected. “Because God is good and God wants to see people taken care of. God doesn’t like what’s happening. I don’t like what’s happening. Everyone says, I enjoy, I don’t enjoy this. I don’t enjoy it.”

Trump continued, citing his actions in conflicts around the world as evidence of his intent. “I don’t like seeing people killed. I’ve ended eight wars. Nobody’s ever done it. The person who won the Nobel Prize came to me and said, you deserve the Nobel Prize. She announced that when they announced.” (Read more from “Reporter Asks Trump If God Is On America’s Side In Iran” HERE)
