Except During the Trump Administration, the U.S. has Always Blamed Israel

By Jihad Watch Axios reported: U.S. urges Israel to take steps to stabilize Palestinian Authority. It’s an old story; the Muslim Arabs cause trouble, and Israel is blamed.

The FBI in Peace and Politics

By Wallace Bruschweiler In the wake of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the Bush Administration and Congress made a number of panic-induced reorganization and statutory errors.

By The Geller Report The lying Biden White House has repeatedly denied ordering the FBI’s illegal raid on Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate, court documents reveal otherwise. Lyin Biden bald faced to the American people. The illegitimate rogue regime shits on us and our Constitution as a matter of policy. Court also acknowledges Joe Biden helped […]

Mar-a-Lago Thuggery

By Michael Larson The leading theory about the motive for the Mar-a-Lago raid is that Trump’s political enemies are trying to stop him from a 2024 presidential bid. Second place is the dull and naïve assumption that justice was simply being carried out: in other words, that a former president of the United States is […]

President Biden: Ignorant Demagogue

By Neland Nobel President Biden was recently in Pennsylvania where he campaigned against “assault weapons” again, committing multiple egregious factual errors.

Still More Dangerous New Concessions by Biden Administration for a Nuclear Deal with Iran’s Mullahs

By Majid Rafizadeh Since assuming office, the Biden administration’s policy towards the Iranian regime has been one of capitulation and giving concessions to the ruling Islamist mullahs of Iran. So far, they include suspending some of the anti-terrorism sanctions on Iran-backed Houthis, then revoking the designation of Yemen’s Houthis as a terrorist group; disregarding Iran’s oil sales to China; shipping […]

Experts Blame Green Energy Policies for Europe’s Full-Scale Energy Crisis: ‘A warning to the U.S.’

Why Tyrants Still Study Gorbachev

By Foundation for Economic Education (FEE) What Mikhail Gorbachev tried to do with the Soviet Union is surprisingly relevant today. Sometimes I joke that I lived through four currencies and three leaders of the Soviet Union. I was born in 1981, Brezhnev died in 1982, Andropov in 1984, and Chernenko in 1985. Compared to the previous Soviet Leaders who spent a […]

Musk: “Civilization Will Crumble” Without Oil and Gas

By David Kelly Editors’ Note: Elon Musk is hard to categorize. On the one hand, he is selling a lot of cars because of government subsidies, tax breaks, and coercion.

Afghan Refugees in U.S. Are Sending Our Tax Dollars Back to Afghanistan

By Jihad Watch Not actually a surprise. Some countries run their entire economies around remittances, promoting mass migration to America, and then profiting from the money sent back to their families.

Tampa Mosque Event Features Two Imams One Anti-Semitic, the Other Supports Sharia Punishments

By Jihad Watch Stoning adulterers, killing homosexuals, and hating Jews is all standard Sharia. Stoning adulterers is not “extremist”; it is Islamic law.
