12 Glaring Realities of Marxist Socialism
In a free society that embraces free markets and the rule of law, young people must be made aware of the glaring realities regarding the alleged “fuzzy and warm” nature of Marxist (collectivism, communism, progressivism, socialism) iterations. There are at least twelve aspects of the Marxist ideology that are clear and present dangers to democratic nations as well as undemocratic countries. First, Marxism was founded on the stark concept of atheism.
'They Are United': California Democrats Move Forward With 5% Billionaire Tax
How These Taxes Usually End Do these people ever learn? Recall New Jersey circa 2016, when a single hedge fund manager's change of address to Florida had Trenton's budget officials publicly sweating over the state's revenue forecast - one guy, one moving truck, one fiscal panic. Recall Illinois' richest resident, Ken Griffin, packing his entire firm off from Chicago to Miami in 2022, taking what was reportedly the state's largest individual tax bill with him. Recall the Pacific Northwest's most famous ex-resident developing a sudden fondness for South Florida in 2023, mere months after Washington's shiny new capital gains tax survived its court challenge - and then unloading billions in stock from the comfort of a state that taxes none of it. Recall the world's richest man decamping California for Texas in 2020, with his companies trailing behind like ducklings.

ID To Buy Gov't Bread & Milk, But Not To Vote: This Is Mamdani's Socialist NYC Utopia
Yet New Yorkers still do not have to present voter identification during elections, and the hypocrisy is just off the charts, as this only highlights an inconsistency in the state's approach to identification requirements: ID Required: Shovel snow ID Required: Buy milk and bread at a gov't-run grocery store No ID Required: Voting in elections "We are looking to make sure that we target New Yorkers … sort of a library card-esque thing," one of Mamdani's socialist officials said.
NO, The Invaders Have Not All Just ‘Gone Home’
Latest footage proves leftist Spanish government talking point is complete lies
RFK Jr. Steamrolled Dana Bash Over Fauci’s COVID Lies
If Bash thought she could lob a bunch of accusations against Kennedy and he would take it quietly, she was sorely mistaken. Kennedy didn't dodge a single question. He turned every one of them into an indictment of a press corps that spent years demanding blind obedience and calling it science.
How China Is Using Its Coast Guard To Assert Control At Sea
... rather than relying solely on the navy, Beijing deploys the Chinese Coast Guard to project control over contested waters in the South China Sea, East China Sea, and around Taiwan. Coast guard vessels regularly patrol disputed areas, escort Chinese fishing fleets, inspect foreign vessels, and employ coercive measures—including water cannons, lasers, blocking maneuvers, and collisions—to challenge rival claimants. They also operate alongside the People's Liberation Army Navy during military exercises, particularly those focused on Taiwan.

Mamdani Announces City-Run Grocery Stores Will Offer 30% Discount. Critics Say It Will Crush Local Businesses.
“Grocery stores operate with 1-2% profit margins already so taxpayers will have to subsidize 30% discounts on groceries,” CNBC anchor Sara Eisen wrote on X. “It also threatens to shut down local markets and bodegas (and reduce access to food), because they have to compete with the city stores, while also paying commercial rent and earning profits.” Peter St. Onge, an economist at The Heritage Foundation, wrote on X that if the government-owned stores set their prices 30% below retail value then the city would lose “at least 28 cents on the dollar.”
Bombing Campaign In Search Of A Strategy: Pentagon Offers Trump Two-Week 'Go Bigger' Plan In Iran
"We are choosing escalation when de-escalation remains an option, entrenching ourselves deeper into a broader war that we don’t have the capability or desire to sustain," he explained, adding: "There is not a military solution here that will lead to a win. More bombing will not convince Iran to open the SOH or to give us the deal we want, it will only harden their position."
Doug Casey on the Surveillance State Quietly Taking Shape Across America
Cameras are ubiquitous today. They’re in most stores. They’re on streets in every city and town recording your license plate and often looking to tag you with a speeding ticket. If you have a late-model car, its cameras and computer chips will rat you out upon request. If you knock on your neighbor’s door, a camera is probably recording you. When you travel, almost all immigration authorities recognize your face in addition to taking digital fingerprints.
China Scoffs At Iran Arms Transfer Report, After Trump Pours Cold Water On Allegation
China has given its response on Thursday to a prior Reuters investigation which strongly alleged that Beijing is preparing to transfer up to 400 Chinese-made shoulder-fired air-defense missile launchers MANPADS to Iran. The Reuters report was highly specific, even identifying the Hong Kong-based company that facilitated the signing of the arms deal between the Iranians and Chinese, but Beijing has rejected the report as a lie and 'groundless', saying there's no truth to it.
Biden's Pardon Can't Protect Fauci From Legal Consequences
I will invoke my right under the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution to refrain from answering your questions." And so he did, an estimated 111 times, but it won't protect him completely. On Jan. 20, 2025, his last day in office, Biden granted Fauci a full and unconditional pardon covering any offenses he may have "committed or taken part in" tied to his government roles between Jan. 1, 2014, and Jan. 19, 2025. The broad preemptive pardon Joe Biden handed him on the way out the door covers federal charges alone, and it leaves him exposed to the state charges that may arrive sooner than his lawyers expected.
Fragile Iran 'Pause' Shattered As US Base In Jordan Comes Under Attack, Oil Soars
Oil soars on reports of Iran targeting US Jordan base; Iraqi militants attack KSA for 2nd day. Hormuz indirect talks continue amid reports of a possible resurrected MoU deal.

Bombshell Report Exposes Lefty NGOs Funding A Children's Charity Tied To Terror Network
After years of pro-Hamas protests and riots, including efforts by radical-left revolutionaries to blockade highways, bridges, and other economic chokepoints, as well as unrest across Ivy League campuses, investigators are finally examining the financial infrastructure behind the Marxist movement that increasingly appears less about Palestine and more about toppling the US empire.
DOJ Sues Colorado For Offering In-State Tuition Aid To Illegal Immigrants
The July 23 lawsuit, filed with the District Court for the District of Colorado, accused Colorado of ignoring Title 8 of the U.S. Code Section 1623, which bans illegal immigrants from being eligible for post-secondary education benefits in a state unless the same benefits are provided to all U.S. citizens, irrespective of their state of residence.
The Fair Share Myth and Other Socialist Fables
The fair share myth is a virtual mantra among socialist and Democratic leaders, from Mamdani to Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) to Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.). In my book, “Rage and the Republic,” I address the false claim that the wealthy are not “paying their fair share.” In fact, the top 10 percent already pay more taxes than the bottom 90 percent combined.
Trump Ready For 'Strong Military Action' If Talks Fail, With Saudi Aramco Under Houthi Fire
Trump pauses strikes: Trump said the US paused attacks to give diplomacy a chance but warned military action will resume if talks fail.

Saudi Aramco targeted: Houthis claimed fresh strikes on Saudi Aramco facilities, with reports of fires at the critical Abqaiq oil processing complex. Fragile pause holds two days: The US-Iran military pause entered a second day as mediators continued backchannel efforts to revive negotiations.
Deep State Voter Fraud Fight to the Death – Alex Newman
Without voter fraud, Deep State Democrats lose and lose big in the midterms. They are fighting every way they can to keep the cheating going. The Trump Administration is threatening fines and jail time if the Dems in Blue States “Refuse to Cooperate to Secure Elections.” It is so bad that Harvard PhD and political expert Dr. Jerome Corsi says President Trump must “Stop Voter Fraud or Lose the Republic.” The fight is going to get much more intense and violent before the midterm elections in November. Alex Newman says, “Voter integrity is one of the arenas where this fight to the death is taking place. We are going to determine in the not-so-distant future if the Deep State and those who hate America and our Constitutional Republic are going to control the most powerful military and most powerful economy in the world, or are ‘We the People’ going to exert control over the government we created to protect our liberties? It will be a fight to the death. There is no option these two can end up with control of the government. We have a long fight ahead.”

Flashback: Fauci Funded Technique To Hide Evidence Of Genetic Engineering According To RFK Jr.
With Fauci's personal diaries now public, Tulsi Gabbard's last-day document dump on the record, Ralph Baric stripped of his NIH grants and placed on leave by UNC, and Fauci himself scheduled to appear under subpoena before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee this Wednesday at 8:30 a.m., Kennedy's remarks are worth revisiting. Here's what he said: "He [Fauci] funded Ralph Baric to develop a technique called seamless ligation. And that is a technique for hiding the engineering project."
Fauci Files: A Megalomaniacal Egomaniac Milking Covid for Everything It's Worth
On July 24, Senator Rand Paul’s committee published two documents that have not been reported in any depth. The first is Fauci’s personal diary, 1,141 pages, running from late 2019 through his retirement in December 2022. It is partly a journal and overwhelmingly a scrapbook: he pasted hundreds of articles about himself into it, frequently in full.
Left-Wing Activists Rush To Defend Islamic Migrants After Attack On Berlin Pride Parade
The organizers of the parade have made a public statement admonishing anyone who points out that the attack once again proves that Muslim immigration into Europe is a problem. They assert that the attempted mass murder should not be used to "create division" and at no point did they cite Islam as a potential motivating ideology.
Machete-Wielding Islamic Terrorist Killed By Cops After Deadly Berlin Pride Attack

Trump Pursues Diplomatic Off-Ramp As Omani Delegation Arrives In Tehran: Report
Trump's order to hold fire was given several hours after an Omani delegation arrived in Tehran Friday for talks on a new arrangement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Two regional sources with knowledge of the negotiations said progress has been made in the talks and that an agreement between Oman and Iran could be reached over the weekend. More color: Trump's decision reflects both his willingness to provide more space for diplomacy and a recognition that — short of a return to major combat operations — the current level of U.S. strikes has reached the limit of its effectiveness. If Trump orders a return to strikes, the U.S. military can mobilize on relatively short notice. The U.S. military is still preparing plans for a possible return to major combat operations, but Trump hasn't given orders to move in that direction, the sources said.

Smokey skies does not mean global warming
every inhabited continent is running below its recent average for area burned this year, with Africa, the Americas, and Europe at record lows. Those are remarkable statistics. They don't mean wildfires have disappeared or that smoke isn't a serious public health concern. They simply demonstrate that the broader wildfire picture is very different from the one often portrayed in daily news reports.
US Bombing Campaign Effectiveness In Doubt As Iranians Rebuild At Rapid Pace
Everything from roads to bridges to tunnel entrances have also be restored at surprising speeds, which also suggests the US bombings have had a rallying effect among civic workers and the broader population in support of the nation and the government. WSJ offers but one example as follows: "Near Kangavar, in western Iran, satellite imagery from Planet Labs in March showed two tunnel entrances and an access road damaged by airstrikes aimed at blocking access to an Iranian missile base. Within weeks, imagery from Airbus revealed a neatly paved road leading to freshly excavated entrances."
Russian Attack On Arms Expo Near Kiev Kills 10, Just After Zelensky Hosts Raytheon Execs

Yet Another Wildberries Facility - Russia's Amazon - Goes Up In Flames After Ukraine Drone Strike
NBC News has noted, "Wildberries, whose banking arm had sanctions imposed on it by the European Union this week over its financial contribution to the Russian budget, plays a central role in Russia’s consumer economy." "Its targeting by Ukraine appears to be part of Kyiv’s attempts to ensure ordinary Russians feel the impact of the war which has raged on Ukrainian territory for more than four years," the report adds.
The United Nations Has Run Out Of Alibis
Institutions built to prevent atrocities eventually face the question of what they actually protect. For the United Nations, voting patterns, internal investigations and its own decisions this year no longer support the fiction of neutrality. An UNRWA school in Gaza sat above a Hamas tunnel shaft and three anti-tank positions, and its own principal was on the payroll of both institutions at once - a fact that American investigators, not the UN, brought to light.

Diverse Fat Activist Gets Paid to Lie to Children About Nutrition for Corporate Profit
There you have it. The Black Nutritionist herself liberates epigenetic wisdom stolen from her people’s genome by the colonizers: you should literally eat whatever you want all the time because nothing matters and ‘broccoli is the same as a Three Musketeers GMO bar because everything is a social construction. It’s a very postmodern take on diet.

The House rejected an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) on Tuesday that would codify President Donald Trump’s executive order banning transgender-identifying people from military service. Four Republicans joined Democrats to kill the amendment, sponsored by Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO), by a slim margin of 212-217. The four Republicans who voted with Democrats are Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA) and Mike Lawler (R-NY) — who both represents districts that voted for Kamala Harris — and Reps. James Moylan from Guam and Kimberlyn King-Hinds from the Northern Mariana Islands.
Wildberries - Russia's Amazon - Has Seen Four Major Hubs Attacked In Quick Succession
The Kremlin will no doubt take the ongoing threat and targeting of Wildberries' hubs very seriously. Reuters has reviewed that "Together with smaller rivals, Wildberries and Ozon sell goods and services worth the equivalent of 8.5% of Russia's gross domestic product. They provide jobs for 4 million people, or more than 5% of the country's workforce."
Watch: Ukraine, Iran Tensions Run High In Rare Rubio-Lavrov Meeting
Lavrov underscored in the meeting "the unacceptability of further arming" Ukraine and accused European countries of pursuing Russia's "strategic defeat."

Latest Gulf missile attacks: Iran claimed attacks on US-linked targets in Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, and Jordan. Nuclear tensions: Iran denied nuclear activity at Pickaxe Mountain, calling US claims a 'fabricated pretext' for attack. Oil climbs: Renewed Gulf attacks and shipping threats continued to lift oil prices.
"He Was Very Close To Being Arrested": Epstein's Paris Model Scout Found Dead At Home, Weeks After CNN Appearance
officially, nobody knows anything yet. Siad's lawyer told Reuters that "Daniel Siad never stopped proclaiming his innocence" - and that her client died of a heart attack. To AFP, she was more careful, saying that if it was a heart attack, the strain and anxiety of the case will have played its part. The autopsy, presumably, will referee. And if that first statement sounds familiar, it should: when Jean-Luc Brunel was found dead in 2022, his lawyers announced that "Jean-Luc Brunel never stopped declaring his innocence." The French defense bar evidently keeps the line on file.
Drone War Enters Terrifying New Phase As Russia Deploys 300-MPH Jet-Powered Shahed
Dramatic footage posted on X shows what appears to be a Russian Geran-4 jet-powered, one-way attack drone striking a passenger train in Ukraine. If authenticated, the footage shows just how rapidly drone warfare is evolving beyond conventional two-stroke power plants toward miniature turbojets that sharply increase speed, compress warning and response times, potentially render many existing small-drone interceptors ineffective, and accelerate the overall tempo of combat across modern battlefields.
Syrsky Dismissed as Commander-in-Chief, Drapaty Replaces Him

Iran's Reliance On China's Beidou Satellite System Is A Game-Changer In War With US
Fast-forward to early 2026, and the battlefield dynamics had shifted dramatically. Iran’s precision strikes began threading through advanced air defenses, hitting high-value targets across the Gulf with surprising accuracy. Intelligence analysts pointed to one key factor: Iran had ditched GPS for China’s Beidou satellite navigation system.

Ukraine Descends Into Political Turmoil After Defense Minister's Dismissal
After a ballistic missile strike killed two and injured six in Kyiv the night before, I made my way to the protests in front of the Ivan Franko Theater, not too far from Zelenskyy’s office. There, the crowd chanted “Shame!” “FE-DOR-OV!” and “No personal interests!” The news had only broken a little over 12 hours before, and yet there were at least 1,000 people there during the workday. There were no speeches or really much organization behind the protests and protesters carried improvised cardboard signs, but there was a lot of anger -- and fear -- over Fedorov’s dismissal.
Why Zelensky has fired the man beating Russia
Much of it comes down to different visions of how to fight the war. While Fedorov is credited with “digitising” the army, the older general was said to feel that old-fashioned but still essential elements – infantry, armour, artillery – were being ignored. “They live in two different worlds. Mykhailo wants to digitalise everything and build the system around technology. The military simply wants to be heard. They ask for one type of weapon to be procured, while he refuses and funds other areas instead. They simply stopped listening to each other,” one MP quoted the president as saying.

RFK Jr. to Create COVID Vaccine Injury Table — Will More People Finally Be Compensated for Injuries?
HHS plans to propose a rule in November establishing a formal “injury table” for COVID-19 vaccines. The proposal would undergo a public comment period expected to run into early 2027 before any final rule could take effect. Under the PREP Act, HHS was legally required to create the table, but never did. In May, attorney Ray Flores sued the agency to compel it to create the table.

Permanent Switch To Daylight Saving Time Easily Passes US House
Opponents of permanent DST include the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, which says permanent standard time better matches natural circadian rhythms, which affects immune system function and other aspects of personal health. The group, along with some concerned educators and parents, say permanent DST would have particularly harmful effects on children. "Permanent daylight saving time would delay morning light exposure, making it harder for children and adolescents to wake, learn, and travel safely to school during dark winter mornings," the group said in a statement.
Ukraine Shake-Up: Zelensky Sacks Popular Defense Chief, & IDs CEO Of Naftogaz As Likely Next Prime Minister
"But defense industry officials, senior Ukrainian officials, MPs from Zelenskyy’s party and others familiar with the matter have said — some publicly — that Fedorov had been a barrier to interests seeking to profit from Ukraine’s vast wartime defence budget… Fedorov repeatedly blocked attempts to steer lucrative procurement contracts to favoured companies, which put him at odds with powerful figures inside Ukraine’s political and defence establishment, said people familiar with the situation."
UN Maritime Boss Warns Ships To Avoid Hormuz As Transits Continue
US Central Command said its latest round of strikes against Iranian coastal military targets concluded early Wednesday. Tehran retaliated with missile and drone attacks against US-allied Gulf states while continuing to disrupt some maritime traffic through the strait. Yet commercial ships are still transiting, suggesting Iran's ability to fully weaponize the maritime chokepoint is gradually eroding under sustained US air and naval superiority.
The Authentication Layer - Why Digital ID Is the Hill to Die On
And for anyone thinking “the government already has my Social Security number and my phone tracks my GPS” - you’re missing the difference. Right now those systems are siloed - your bank doesn’t know what your doctor said, your DMV doesn’t know your browser history, etc. Digital ID is the interoperability layer - one key someone else controls - and can revoke. Five keys for five doors means losing one is manageable. One master key for everything means someone else decides whether you get in at all.
IRGC Vows 'Not A Drop Of Oil & Gas Will Be Exported' From Region Amid Sustained Cross-Gulf Fighting
Iran-US fighting is sustained but slowed, with new reported strikes across the Gulf. Trump declares FULL blockade on Iranian ports, while IRGC asserts 'wartime control' of Hormuz. Trump drops 20% transit fee plan; oil prices ease. Multiple tanker attacks over past day again disrupt shipping & cause casualties. Regional conflict expands with reported Houthi missiles on Saudi Arabia.
Iran war live: Trump reverses 20-percent Hormuz tariff announcement
US Central Command forces says it has “began launching an additional round of strikes against Iran to continue degrading Iranian capabilities used to attack commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz”.

Sheriff Says Somali Youth Gangs Are Running Wild in Minneapolis
