It shows the magnitude of success of the massive information operations by Russia, Iran, Qatar/Turkey, CCP and a handful of others besieging the U.S. through various venues, structures and captured institutions. This is an amorphous fir of warfare that is becoming as civilizationally deadly for the West as the armed attacks last century.

The Pope cites Lebanon as an example of peaceful “coexistence” between Christians and Muslims. Fun fact: Lebanon was literally created to be a homeland for persecuted Christians in the Middle East. And it was for a few decades. The moment Muslim invaders thought they had the numbers, they started a civil war that lasted 15 years because they didn’t want to live with the same Christians who made them part of the country. Thousands of Christians were massacred, Muslims became the majority, Hezbollah took over, and the country hasn’t known peace ever since. Lebanon is the first and ultimate example that coexistence between Christians and Muslims is quite literally impossible. It’s mind-blowing that anyone would use it as an example of coexistence, let alone the Pope.

10 years ago it was Ta-Nehisi Coates, Ibram X. Kendi, and the wave of radical Black critical theory. These grifters turned “anti-racism” into an industry and dragged the Democratic Party into full woke territory…completely divorced from what normal Americans actually think Now it’s a new wave: Muslim socialists influencers like Hasan Piker and Zohran Mamdani pushing hardcore communist economics, open borders, and “from the river to the sea” antisemitism It’s the exact same phenomenon. Both times a radical identity-based movement captured the activist class, turned grievance into a grift, demonized any dissent as bigotry or “Islamophobia/racism,” and forced Democrats to embrace fringe positions that don’t align with voters. Same playbook, different minority group, but it’s basically the same repackaged radical ideology It’s the exact same phenomenon And normies are noticing… You know what they say: “fool me once…”

How in the world, in the biggest state with the largest Democratic population in the country, are the Dems' main choices Eric Swalwell, Katie Porter, and Tom Steyer?? Speaks a lot to the state of our politics -- and the Dem party -- circa 2026.

Gavin Newsom's wife recalls telling prisoners at San Quentin about running over and killing her sister with a golf cart. She said that she wasn't punished because it was an accident but that the prisoners are doing life even though theirs was "probably an accident too."

So let me get this straight, I go to the grocery store and buy … a pound of sliced turkey in a plastic bag, a loaf of bread in a plastic bag, a gallon of milk in a plastic jug, a pack of napkins in plastic wrap, a store-made salad in a plastic tub, a plastic bottle of mustard and ketchup, but they won't give me a plastic bag to carry it home because the plastic bag is bad for the environment? 🙄😂

Iran is likely to deploy human shields to its bridges and power plants tonight. The use of civilians as human shields is banned under the Geneva Conventions (article 51).

Too many young people are resenting Boomers, claiming that Boomers had it " easy " financially in their youth. Here are a few fun facts about growing up Boomer. 1. Almost everyone grew up with one bathroom. Mom, Dad and all 3-6 siblings. 2. If you did get to take a vacation, you drove. With no air conditioning. No cup holders. No iPads. Just black vinyl seats and bologna sandwiches. 3. There were no club sports. No Parks and Rec activities. Summer camp was for rich kids. Get yourself a bike, a stick and a few friends. If you were bored, you laid in the grass and looked at clouds. 4. You ate what was served. Even if it was chicken livers. No DoorDash, no backup Totino's rolls. 5. No AP classes, no PSEO, no "fun" elective. They assigned you to a class. You went. You did what they asked. Or else. 6. Unless you had rich parents, you had a nice VFW wedding. Maybe rent a room at a modest hotel. 7. Most Boomers got their first pedi and mani in their 50s (when their feet got farther away). We didn't even know people got massages in real life, only in Hollywood. 8. You packed your own lunch for decades. 9. No one knew what red light therapy was, a facial, a spa day, or a cold plunge. Your gym was the YMCA. Usually in a rather old building. 10. We grew up with 18 percent inflation, 14 percent mortgage rates, 3 million continuing unemployment claims, and 200 other applicants competing for the same job. Now, this is not to say Millenials and Gen Z have it easy or don't face problems. It's just to say, nobody has it easy or doesn't face problems. My only hope, as my mom would say, is I live long enough to see my kids' kids complain about how easy they had it!
