India Strikes Pakistan as Tension Between Nuclear-Armed Neighbors Following Terror Attack Reaches Fever Pitch

/0 Comments/in , /by

India launched airstrikes against Pakistan and Pakistani-controlled Kashmir on Wednesday, leaving at least eight dead and dozens more injured in an attack its fellow nuclear-armed South Asian neighbor has called an “act of war.”

India’s “Operation Sindoor” struck a total of nine Pakistani sites utilizing precision weapons, including drones, on Wednesday, targeting locations “where terrorist attacks against India have been planned,” the Indian military said.

Pakistani officials claimed the bombings killed eight people and injured 38 more, including five civilians who were killed in Ahmedpur East in the province of Punjab.

“Pakistan has every right to give a robust response to this act of war imposed by India, and a strong response is indeed being given,” Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said in a statement.

After the strikes, Pakistani troops indiscriminately fired across the border into Indian-controlled Kashmir — killing three civilians, the Indian army said.

Pakistan also claimed to have shot down as many as five Indian aircraft, including fighter jets. Those claims were not confirmed by the Indian military as of Tuesday night.

Supreme Court Restores Trump’s Transgender Military Ban — for Now

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Supreme Court on Tuesday allowed the Trump administration to institute its ban on transgenders serving in the military.

In an order that all three liberal justices opposed, the high court approved an emergency petition from the Trump administration to nix a lower court injunction that blocked the ban from taking effect.

President Trump had signed an executive order Jan. 27 discharging service members who identify as transgender, a policy that was similar to one he implemented in his first administration that the Supreme Court upheld in 2019.

Former President Joe Biden later scrapped the transgender ban that the first Trump administration had put in place.

Seven transgender military service members and one aspiring service member sued the Trump administration over the latest ban and were backed by the National Center for Lesbian Rights as well as GLAD Law. (Read more from “Supreme Court Restores Trump’s Transgender Military Ban — for Now” HERE)

Ashli Babbitt’s Estate, DOJ Move to Settle $30M Wrongful Death Lawsuit

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Department of Justice has reached a preliminary settlement with the family of Ashli Babbitt, an Air Force veteran and Trump supporter who was shot and killed by a Capitol Police officer at the January 6, 2021 riot.

Lawyers from Trump’s DOJ and Babbitt’s estate informed a DC federal judge Friday that an agreement has been reached in principle in the $30 million wrongful death lawsuit filed in 2024.

Robert Sticht, the Babbitt family lawyer, said a formal settlement agreement is expected to be signed within the next three weeks, according to ABC News.

The US Capitol Police Lieutenant Michael Byrd shot an unarmed Babbitt, 35, as she attempted to climb through a broken window of a barricaded door within the Capitol Building during the riot on Jan. 6.

Babbitt was attempting, with hundreds of other Trump supporters, to enter the Speaker’s Lobby of the Capitol Building as some members of Congress were being evacuated and others were sheltering in place due to the overwhelming riot.

Colorado Democrats Deliver ‘Poke in the Eye’ to Trump by Passing Another Sanctuary Bill

/0 Comments/in , /by

Colorado became a symbol of immigrant-sanctuary laws run amok last year after Tren de Aragua gang members set up shop at an Aurora apartment complex, but that didn’t stop the Democratic state legislature from doubling down.

Headed to Democratic Gov. Jared Polis’ desk is Senate Bill 276, a measure that expands benefits for illegal immigrants and reduces cooperation with federal immigration enforcement in defiance of President Trump’s April 28 executive order against sanctuary jurisdictions.

It turns out that pushing back the Trump administration was the point, according to the bill’s sponsors.

“Our bill safeguards the civil and constitutional rights of everyone in Colorado,” Democratic state Rep. Lorena Garcia said in a statement. “Between carrying out sweeping, untargeted deportations that have included American citizens and defying federal court orders, the Trump administration’s immigration overreach has struck fear in Colorado communities.”

Democrats named the bill “Protect Civil Rights Immigration Status,” but Rob Natelson, senior fellow at the Independence Institute in Denver, has another label: the “Venezuelan Gang Protection Act.” (Read more from “Colorado Democrats Deliver ‘Poke in the Eye’ to Trump by Passing Another Sanctuary Bill” HERE)

Plot Twist: Trump Vows to Make Hollywood Great Again

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Donald Trump has said that he would meet with Hollywood insiders to discuss his tariffs and negotiate on ways to reinvigorate the movie business.

As Breitbart News reported on Sunday, the president proposed putting “a 100% Tariff on any and all Movies coming into our Country that are produced in Foreign Lands.”

“The Movie Industry in America is DYING a very fast death,” he wrote on Sunday. “Other Countries are offering all sorts of incentives to draw our filmmakers and studios away from the United States. Hollywood, and many other areas within the U.S.A., are being devastated. This is a concerted effort by other Nations and, therefore, a National Security threat. It is, in addition to everything else, messaging and propaganda! Therefore, I am authorizing the Department of Commerce, and the United States Trade Representative, to immediately begin the process of instituting a 100% Tariff on any and all Movies coming into our Country that are produced in Foreign Lands. WE WANT MOVIES MADE IN AMERICA, AGAIN!”

Speaking with reporters on Monday, the president said that he wants to “help the industry” and would meet with Hollywood insiders to work out a deal.

“I’m not looking to hurt the industry; I want to help the industry,” he said. “We’re going to meet with the industry. I want to make sure they’re happy with it, because we’re all about jobs.” (Read more from “Plot Twist: Trump Vows to Make Hollywood Great Again” HERE)

Trump Offers Blunt, 3-Word Response After Canada’s New PM Says Country Is ‘Not for Sale’

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Trump had three little words for newly-elected Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney Tuesday after the commander in chief again said he wanted Canada to be America’s 51st state.

“I say, ‘Never say never,’” the 78-year-old said. “I’ve had many, many things that were not doable and ended up being doable.”

Trump was responding to Carney, 60, telling him that Canada is “not for sale” and that the Canadian view on becoming part of the US “is not going to change.”

“As you know from real estate, there are some places that are never for sale,” the Liberal PM said.

During a post-meeting news conference at the Canadian embassy, Carney said he had told Trump behind closed doors to “stop” publicly musing about annexing Canada — but did not reveal what the US president said in response.

“We are masters in our own home,” the prime minister added, “and we can give ourselves far more than any foreign government can ever take away.” (Read more from “Trump Offers Blunt, 3-Word Response After Canada’s New PM Says Country Is ‘Not for Sale’” HERE)

Another White Teen Brutally Attacked by Thugs… Crickets From the Mainstream Media

/0 Comments/in , , /by

These days, it feels like we’re constantly reporting on black-on-white crime, and that’s only because the propaganda media refuses to do its job and share these stories. Now here we are again: three black teens were arrested for armed robbery and for shooting an innocent 17-year-old outside a local store in Moore County, North Carolina. More on this horrific story in a moment…

Most recently, we covered another one of these forgotten stories about a young white mother named Emily Carlson, who was stabbed to death by a black career criminal in Chicago.

Revolver

A white mother from Austin, Texas, was allegedly murdered by a black career criminal — and once again, the propaganda media shrugs their shoulders, while the politicians look the other way.

In today’s upside-down America, there’s only outrage when it fits the regime’s narrative. We all know by now that if the races were reversed, this story would be flooding every news channel, with riots raging in the streets. But when a white victim dies at the hands of a violent black criminal, the media does everything it can to bury it — or worse, pretend that it’s an isolated incident with no bigger meaning.

That type of storytelling is what makes fake news so dangerous.

And sadly, here we are again, telling you about yet another young white victim, brutally attacked by three degenerate thugs, and right on cue, the media stays silent.

Elon Musk Discovers 100,000 Active Federal Employees Illegally Getting Unemployment Benefits

/5 Comments/in , , /by

By WND. Elon Musk, President Donald Trump’s leader of the Department of Government Efficiency, has made a startling discovery, saying there are more than 100,000 active federal employees illegally receiving unemployment benefits.

The DOGE chief revealed the stunning figure Saturday to Lara Trump, host of “My View” on Fox News.

“We’ve actually found there’s a lot of people who are federal government employees, that are active employees, who nonetheless have applied for and received unemployment insurance,” Musk explained.

“While they are federal employees,” an incredulous Trump responded.

“Yes, and this appears to be at least 100,000 people,” Musk continued.

“Wow!” Trump said. (Read more from “Elon Musk Discovers 100,000 Active Federal Employees Illegally Getting Unemployment Benefits” HERE)

Elon Musk, DOGE Team Credit Fed Workers for Helping Trim Waste, Fraud: ‘There Is Conflict, but That Is the Exception’

By New York Post. . .Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency team expressed their gratitude Thursday to the federal employees partnering with the cost-cutting agency as they work around the clock to eliminate wasteful spending and modernize the workforce.

The billionaire tech entrepreneur, 53, and several male staffers told Fox News host Jesse Watters that they’ve seen increased willingness from federal workers and agencies to collaborate with DOGE to improve government operations — noting that conflict is often a rare exception that’s heightened in the media.

“We’d like to just give a big thank you to all the government employees who are helping reduce the waste and fraud, because this is — we really couldn’t do it without you,” Musk said during a 10 p.m. staff meeting inside DOGE headquarters that was highlighted on “Jesse Watters Primetime.”

“I’m not trying to sort of say all government employees are bad. That’s absolutely not the case. It’s just that there actually just does need to be a serious effort to reduce the waste and fraud. And we’re just making that happen,” the DOGE chief continued.

Top California Democrats Fight To Protect Purchasing Sex With Kids

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Should it be a felony to purchase an underage minor for illegal sex?

For most of us, the answer is a very easy yes. This is not a hard one. You will likely encounter three dozen questions today or tomorrow that will be considerably more difficult to answer. Generally, if someone is asked if there should be severe legal penalties for underage sex trafficking, the response is an immediate, unhesitating affirmative.

Democrats in California feel differently. The state assembly there this past week considered a bill — AB-379 — that would have amended state law to make it a felony to solicit paid sex from “any person under 18 years of age.” In other words, if you seek out and pay a minor for sex — if you engage in child sex trafficking — you would be guilty of a felony.

This should have been an easy move for the assembly; the debate should have taken about 30 seconds and ended with a unanimous vote, passage to the state senate, and a quick signature by Gov. Gavin Newsom. The ink should have still been drying on the bill by suppertime on Wednesday.

Democrats were not so obliging. In fact, they mounted a major opposition to the bill. By the time they were done with it, the bill’s protections for 16-year-old sex crime victims had been stripped from the measure. Democrats added language claiming it was “the intent of the Legislature to adopt the strongest laws to protect 16- and 17-year old victims.” Which is strange since, when given the opportunity to do just that, they refused.

What reason could Democrats have for opposing the bill? Advocates in no small part seemed concerned that the measure could disproportionately affect … LGBT Californians. (Really stop and think about that for a minute.) The ACLU of Southern California claimed in part that similar measures “have been used disproportionately against … LGBTQ+ individuals.” Other opponents of the bill claimed that the measure could be used by parents who are upset that their children are in “LGBTQ relationships.” (Read more from “Top California Democrats Fight To Protect Purchasing Sex With Kids” HERE)

Trump Bans Federal Funding for ‘Dangerous’ Gain-Of-Function Research

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Monday banning all federal funding for “dangerous” gain-of-function research in China, Iran and other countries and blocking all federal funding for foreign research that could cause another pandemic.

The president signed the order Monday afternoon to improve the safety and security of biological research in the U.S. and around the world.

The White House said the order “will drastically reduce the potential for lab-related incidents involving gain-of-function research, like that conducted on bat coronaviruses in China by the EcoHealth Alliance and Wuhan Institute of Virology.”

Gain-of-function research typically involves modifying a virus to make it more infectious among humans. Gain of function research took place at the Wuhan Lab before the COVID-19 pandemic began.

The White House said the order will protect Americans from lab accidents and other biosecurity incidents, “such as those that likely caused COVID-19 and the 1977 Russian flu.”

The president’s order ends any present and all future federal funding of gain-of-function research in countries with insufficient oversight of research, and it empowers U.S. research agencies to identify and end federal funding of any other biological research that could pose a threat to American public health, public safety or national security.
