The National Park Service reportedly fired a trans Yosemite National Park ranger who hung a transgender pride flag across the park’s El Capitan rock formation in California earlier this year. Shannon "SJ" Joslin, 35, wrote an Instagram post on Monday claiming to have been fired from the park "for practicing my First Amendment right" after hanging the 55-foot by 35-foot flag across Yosemite’s iconic rock destination in May. Joslin, who is non-binary and uses they/them pronouns, claimed to have raised the flag while off-duty and as a private citizen. "I was fired by the temporary Deputy Superintendent for ‘failing to

Are James Comey's sudden babblings about how pop-tart singer Taylor Swift was his guide to life a sign that he knows he's legally up to his neck in alligators? Or is he just a weirdo? Seems both arguments have some truth. ack In case you haven't seen it, he wrote this sort of thing on his Substack, via GatewayPundit:
Hey, everybody. Welcome back to my Substack. Last week’s cold turns out to have been COVID—quite a flashback.

The border wall separating the United States and Mexico is being painted black to make it too hot for migrants to climb.
Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem revealed the project was a specific request from Donald Trump as the president celebrated 'ZERO releases' of illegal migrants into the country. 'In the hot temperatures down here, when something is painted black it gets even warmer,' Noem said during a press conference in front of the wall on Tuesday. She noted the structure is already hard to climb and near impossible to dig under, but said Trump's latest measure will help to secure the American border even further.

A suspect who allegedly attacked and bit a downtown Minneapolis teen restaurant worker as he took out the garbage last month will apparently not be charged, despite the young worker suffering several deep bite wounds. (Snip)
Nineteen-year-old Jezarius Sheldon said he was taking out the trash when a man screamed and cursed at him and then rushed at him (snip)
That’s when Sheldon says his response turned into self-defense, and he began utilizing his jiu-jitsu skills and his experience as a high school wrestler. (snip) Hennepin County Attorney’s Office (HCAO) declined to charge Brown because “the victim knew how to fight.”

The state of Texas is generating considerable buzz ahead of the 2026 midterm elections regarding its efforts to redraw the state’s congressional districts. Meanwhile, the U.S. Senate race is starting to turn heads on the Republican side, as incumbent Republican senator John Cornyn faces a tightly contested primary challenge from Attorney General Ken Paxton, which could turn a non-competitive race into a Democrat pickup.

James Comey betrayed the trust of the American people as Director of the FBI, and did damage to that organization from which it may never recover. From the very beginning of the first Trump administration, Comey tried to undermine and ultimately destroy Trump’s power to govern. To his everlasting shame, Comey collaborated in publicizing the Steele “dossier,” which he and everyone else knew to be complete fiction. He did this out of political malice.
Now, Comey is under investigation by the Department of Justice. He lied, without a doubt. He helped to perpetrate the Russia Collusion Hoax. He betrayed his office by misusing the power of the FBI to advance partisan

If you need a laugh, try to imagine Joe Biden or any recent president holding court in the way Donald Trump is doing it.
To double the laugh, try to imagine any of the current presidential wannabes sitting in the big chair in the Oval Office.
It’s an impossible exercise because of how dramatically Trump is redefining what it means to be president of the United States. His talents are vast and uniquely suited to the role he has created.
For the most recent and dramatic example, take Monday’s historic meeting of European leaders about Russia’s unrelenting invasion of Ukraine.

President Donald Trump has instructed legal experts to review “woke” installations in museums nationwide.
According to an Aug. 19 post on Truth Social, the president believes that museums are the “last remaining segment of ‘WOKE,’” and he wants to address the issue the same way his administration has treated colleges and universities.
Trump pointed specifically to a Washington, D.C., icon as a demonstration of the issue, saying, “The Smithsonian is OUT OF CONTROL, where everything discussed is how horrible our Country is, how bad Slavery was, and how unaccomplished the downtrodden have been—Nothing about Success, nothing about Brightness, nothing about the Future.”

Essentially China’s “Belt and Road” initiative is a system of China putting massive infrastructure investment funds into a targeted country in exchange for their ability to extract resources needed for Chinese expansion. However, several nations are now rising up against the Chinese influence as it surfaces in the lives of the citizens.
Angola is a case study in China investing billions and with the investment a large number of Chinese citizens arrive set up businesses there. Over time resentment against the Chinese has been building. Then a flashpoint with a massive jump in gas prices. Suddenly, anarchy erupts, and all the Chinese businesses are looted, some even killed

Beginning with the Obama administration, Muslims murdered over 125,000 Christians in Nigeria. This revelation in the latest report from the International Society for Civil Liberties and the Rule of Law documents a Christian genocide that has been taking place in Africa, enabled by Barack Obama and the State Department, and carried out with the complicity of the media.[snip]Every Hamas claim appears on the front pages even when there’s not a single shred of evidence to sustain it, but actual massacre scenes in Nigeria, burned churches, bullet-riddled bodies and child survivors, rarely make the evening news. And when they do, the term ‘genocide’ is never used

The rural Kentucky judge gunned down in his own chambers last year ran a twisted sex ring in which young women were coaxed into performing sexual favors just to get out of trouble, one of the alleged victims claims.
Tya Adams alleges she was among those caught up in Judge Kevin Mullins’ apparent sex-for-favors scheme that saw him and others in the tiny town of Whitesburg demand sex in exchange for cash, or to get offenders off the hook.
Adams told NewsNation’s “Banfield” that Mullins — who was shot execution-style in his Letcher County chambers, allegedly by his longtime sheriff pal Shawn Stines, last September —

Like many businesses, Bed, Bath & Beyond is fleeing California.
Unlike most, however, it's not slinking out quietly. It's letting the world know why it got the hell out of Dodge.
In a publicly issued statement, its executive chairman, Marcus Lemonis, wrote:
We will not open or operate retail stores in California.
This decision isn’t about politics — it’s about reality. California has created one of the most overregulated, expensive, and risky environments for businesses in America. It’s a system that makes it harder to employ people, harder to keep doors open, and harder to deliver value to customers.
The result?
