By Mediaite. Shortly after Vance made his comments, Levin fired off a tweet that read, “I think it’s terrific that people who will likely seek the GOP nomination for president are revealing themselves. Amazing how Iran is being talked about as increasingly reasonable and moderate as Israel is being smeared left and Woke Right.” . . .

Shortly after Vance made his comments, Levin fired off a tweet that read, “I think it’s terrific that people who will likely seek the GOP nomination for president are revealing themselves. Amazing how Iran is being talked about as increasingly reasonable and moderate as Israel is being smeared left and Woke Right.”

“Here’s a novel idea: stop bullying our ally and cozying up to our enemy,” he added in a follow-up.

In an earlier tweet on Thursday, Levin responded to Vance’s declaration that he is “not uncomfortable” with the idea of a photo op alongside Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Ghalibaf.

“Fwiw, bad idea,” commented Levin. “You’ll regret it certainly down the road. But always a bad idea to stand with a top official of a terrorist regime that killed and maimed thousands of Americans and tens of thousands of Iranians just a few months ago.”

JD Vance Makes Stunning Veiled Threat To Israel Amid Trump Criticism: ‘Wake Up And Smell The Reality!’

By Mediaite. Vice President JD Vance issued a stunning veiled warning to Israel amid dissent over President Donald Trump’s 14-point Memorandum of Understanding with Iran. . .

When Vance was asked about the crack at Thursday’s White House press briefing, he gave a stark response, cautioning Israeli critics that Trump and the United States are their only friends and demanding they “wake up and smell the reality of the situation”:

GATEWAY PUNDIT’S JORDAN CONRADSON: Jordan Conradson with the Gateway Pundit. I want to talk back to the Lebanon component.

There’s a report in Axios that Netanyahu is fuming over this. Israel doesn’t feel bound to MOU as it relates to Lebanon.

As you mentioned, your frustration with Israel striking in Beiruit hitting apartment buildings.

If that continues, could it torpedo the deal? And what would the US’s response be to a broader war in Lebanon involving Israel?

VICE PRESIDENT JD VANCE: Yeah, well, I don’t want to get into hypotheticals that could torpedo the deal because I think the president’s expectation is that all of our friends, the Israelis, the Arabs in the region, we’re going to work together and actually see this deal to completion.

Now, I saw the Axios report that Netanyahu is fuming. That’s not reflective of the conversations that I’ve had with him, but maybe he’s saying something to somebody else that he’s not saying to me.

What I will say, and this does bother me, is that you’ve seen people within Bibi’s cabinet who have come out and attacked the deal and in some ways very personally attacked the President of the United States.

And I guess my message to them would be twofold.

Number one, Donald J. Trump is the only head of state in the entire world who is sympathetic to the nation of Israel at this moment in time. And he happens to be the head of state of the world superpower.

If I was in the cabinet of the Israeli government, I might not be attacking the only powerful ally that I have anywhere left in the entire world.

And the second message I would give to some of those cabinet members, Bibi, to his credit, has not gone down this path. But to some of these cabinet members in Israel who are attacking the President of the United States, the other thing that I would say is that over the last three months… Two-thirds of the defensive weapons that have protected your homeland have been built by American hands and paid for by American tax dollars.

The problem for Israel is not Donald J. Trump. And anybody in Israel who thinks their biggest problem is the President of the United States needs to wake up and smell the reality of the situation that country is in. Thank you all.

Judge Sentences Gay Couple Who Sexually Abused, Murdered Adopted Baby. What Happens To Those Who Ignored Red Flags?

/0 Comments/in , , /by

British teacher Jamie Varley, 37, was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole Thursday for the sexual abuse and murder of 13-month-old Preston Davey.

Varley and his partner, 32-year-old John McGowan-Fazakerley, reportedly adopted Davey in April 2023, when the child was nine months old. McGowan-Fazakerley was given a 25-year sentence for sexual abuse, child cruelty, and “allowing the death of a child,” according to The Guardian. Such a sentence seems inadequate for the evil acts in which McGowan-Fazakerley participated. The men reportedly denied all charges.

The details of the case are sickening.

Davey was reportedly taken from his biological mother, Sarah Davey, five days after his birth. His mother, now 42, was sentenced to jail at 14 for the torture and murder of a retiree, according to The Spectator’s Melanie McDonagh.

In a victim impact statement, Sarah Davey reportedly told the men who tortured her son: “He relied entirely on you — the adults responsible for him — to love him, care for him, and keep him safe. Instead, you caused him suffering. You took away his chance to grow up, to go to school, to make friends, to live a full life. You took everything from him.” (Read more from “Judge Sentences Gay Couple Who Sexually Abused, Murdered Adopted Baby. What Happens To Those Who Ignored Red Flags?” HERE)

Cause of Titan Submersible Implosion that Killed Five Revealed in Damning Final Report

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Company failures, design flaws and inadequate regulatory oversight were to blame for the deadly 2023 Titan submersible disaster that killed all five passengers on board, according to the final report on the incident released by the Transportation Safety Board of Canada.

“The investigation determined that the as-built properties of the Titan’s carbon fibre cylinder were never validated to ensure they met the theoretical values used in the design process and that the construction and testing of the Titan did not follow standard engineering practices,” the agency concluded in its 136-page report.

It wrote that OceanGate, the US-based company leading the doomed expedition to the Titanic wreckage, didn’t fully grasp the extent of the danger the craft posed to passengers, and was blinded by “groupthink” and “confirmation bias.”

Agency inspectors examined unused pieces of the same material the Titan was made from and found fundamental structural defects that left it subject to compromised structural integrity, according to the report.

Although OceanGate tested the craft at an equivalent depth to that of the Titanic wreckage — approximately 12,500 feet — the report found it failed to test the impact on the vessel after facing the punishing forces of multiple voyages.

Biden gets Left Behind at Obama Center Opening: ‘Where’s my granddaughter’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

. . .Former President Joe Biden was awkwardly left lingering by himself on stage at the grand opening of the Barack Obama Presidential Center in Chicago, tepidly waving at the crowd after the ceremony ended.

A gleeful Obama had waltzed off the stage to the music, followed by a smiling former first lady Jill Biden, while the 46th president stood there seemingly dazed all by himself.

For reasons that aren’t clear, the 83-year-old went over to the podium and took off his sunglasses before staring into the crowd with a puzzled look on his face.

“Where’s my granddaughter?” he shouted.

The former president then seemingly started to make his way off-stage before footage of the event cut off.

Biden’s rare public outing was reminiscent of parts of his presidency, when he was seen wandering after events with a confused look on his face.

Noah’s Ark Could Finally be Found After Historic Deal Promises ‘Irrefutable Proof’

/3 Comments/in , , /by

A mysterious formation high in the mountains of eastern Turkey has long fueled speculation that it could be the final resting place of Noah’s Ark.

Now, researchers who believe they have identified signs of a massive man-made structure buried beneath the site have received official approval to put their theory to the test.

The team behind Noah’s Ark Scans announced that its Turkish partner has secured government permits to conduct what it describes as the most comprehensive scientific investigation ever undertaken at the Durupinar Formation near Mount Ararat.

The expedition will include non-destructive core drilling, advanced remote-sensing technology, next-generation imaging systems and an underground drone named ‘Gopher’ designed to map what lies beneath the surface.

In a statement announcing the approval, the group said it hopes to provide the world with ‘irrefutable proof’ that the formation is the authentic resting place of Noah’s Ark. (Read more from “Noah’s Ark Could Finally be Found After Historic Deal Promises ‘Irrefutable Proof’” HERE)

Fast-Food Chain Overtakes Chick-Fil-A As Highest Rated

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Chick-fil-A no longer sits atop the fast-food world in terms of customer satisfaction, a new American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI) found.

Jersey Mike’s debuted at the top of the quick-service restaurant category with a customer satisfaction score of 84 out of 100 in the ACSI Restaurant and Food Delivery Study 2026, ending Chick-fil-A’s 11-year run as the leader, according to a press release. Chick-fil-A held steady at 83 and slipped to second. Customers rated Jersey Mike’s well for fresh ingredients, menu range, and value. The company’s Franchise Finance Document (FDD) showed it added 238 net new locations last year, QSR Magazine reported.

“Quick-service restaurants remain steady for the third straight year at an ACSI score of 79, but the industry’s story this year is change at the top,” the study reads.

Jersey Mike’s built its rise on speed and convenience, with a business model leaning on order throughput, off-premise convenience, and heavy digital use, according to the ACSI. The New Jersey sub chain runs a “fairly narrow” menu, and the index credited the brand’s model as friendly to franchisee success.

Iran has 60 days to prove it is willing to make peace and change its ways after signing the deal with the US on Friday — and both sides have to hammer out the biggest problems at stake, including whether the Strait of Hormuz remains free for ship traffic, the $300 billion fund to rebuilt Iran and what it will take to permanently list sanctions on the Islamic regime.

The 14-point US-Iran memorandum of understanding — which was finally released in full Wedensday — lays the groundwork for two months of negotiations between Washington and Tehran on the de-proliferation efforts.

President Trump warned the Islamic republic to abide by the agreement or face a resumption of war and destruction. . .

The Iran deal text reads as follows:

1. The United States of America and the Islamic Republic of Iran and their allies in the current war, by signing this MOU, declare the immediate and permanent termination of military operations on all fronts, including in Lebanon, and undertake from now on not to initiate any war or any military operation against each other, and to refrain from the threat or use of force against each other, and ensuring the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Lebanon. The final deal will confirm the permanent termination of the war on all fronts, including in Lebanon, and other provisions of this paragraph.

6. United States of America undertakes with regional partners to develop a definitive, mutually agreed plan with at least USD $300 billion for the reconstruction and economic development of the Islamic Republic of Iran. The mechanism for the implementation of this plan will be finalized as part of a final deal within 60 days. All required licenses, waivers, and permissions needed for the relevant financial transactions will be granted by the United States of America.

7. The United States of America undertakes to terminate all types of sanctions against the Islamic Republic of Iran, including the United Nations Security Council resolutions, i.e. a Board of Governors resolutions, and all unilateral US sanctions, primary and secondary, in an agreed-upon schedule as part of the final deal.

Trump’s ‘American Flag Blue’ Reflecting Pool Turns Nasty Green After $14M Glow-Up — Admin Blames Obama

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool still needs some algae emancipation.

Just days after the iconic Reflecting Pool reopened following President Trump’s $14 million renovation to seal the concrete bottom with an “American flag blue,” its familiar gnarly-looking green algae once again took over.

“Versus previous administrations, the National Park Service is actually maintaining the beautifully completed Reflecting Pool,” a spokesperson for the Department of the Interior told The Post.

“The nanobubbler technology has successfully destroyed the algae bloom that has plagued every pool reopening since 1922, most infamously, the Obama pool reopening that resulted in massive algae clumps taking over the pool’s surface,” the spokesperson went on.

“Now, due to deploying the advanced nanobubbler technology, the algae is dead and being vacuumed up as we speak. We thank President Trump for fixing the Reflecting Pool for good.” (Read more from “Trump’s ‘American Flag Blue’ Reflecting Pool Turns Nasty Green After $14M Glow-Up — Admin Blames Obama” HERE)

/1 Comment/in , , /by

An $85 million nuclear-capable B-52 Stratofortress has crashed in a huge explosion at California’s Edwards Air Force Base.

A massive cloud of black smoke appeared in the skies above Kern County after the enormous military jet smashed into the ground shortly after takeoff.

Other images showed the smoldering remains of the aircraft with a massive black shadow across the site where it made impact.

The base posted on X just after noon: “A United States Air Force B-52 Stratofortress crashed shortly after takeoff on the Edwards airfield at 11:20 a.m.

“Emergency crews immediately responded to the scene and the situation is ongoing. More information will be provided as it becomes available.”

In an update, it added: “The airfield has been closed, and all inbound aircraft are being diverted. All non-commercial visitor passes have been suspended until further notice to allow the installation to focus entirely on emergency response operations.” It’s currently unclear if anyone was injured in the crash.
