A remote Arctic island once used as a Soviet weather station has become overrun by polar bears. On Kolyuchin Island, in Russia’s Chukchi Sea, dozens of bears now roam through abandoned buildings and peer from shattered windows. The Kolyuchin weather station was abandoned in the early 1990s, after the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Jubilant locals in both Gaza and Israel took to the streets early Thursday to celebrate President Trump for his role in the historic cease-fire deal — with many calling for him to get the Nobel Peace Prize. Footage from both the streets of Tel Aviv and war-torn Gaza showed crowds of revelers celebrating what they hope will be the end of the two-year war as they hailed Trump for helping secure the deal.
A University of Kentucky student and competitive cheerleader was arrested after the body of an infant she gave birth to was found stuffed inside a garbage bag tossed in a closet, according to authorities and reports.

Bodies are piling up on the streets of Chicago over Labor Day weekend – with 54 shot, including seven killed, as President Trump and Illinois Gov. Pritzker spar over sending the National Guard into the Windy City. At least 32 separate shootings occurred in Chicago between Friday evening and noon on Monday, according to a review of police incident reports by ABC News. Just hours after Trump posted a message on Truth Social on Saturday criticizing Pritzker’s handling of crime in the city
A shocking viral video shows a group of irate women beating up an Indiana Walmart employee as her co-workers desperately try to break up the mayhem. The disturbing footage, filmed on Friday at an Indianapolis Walmart and posted to Facebook by witness Kind Butler, shows a woman in black restraining the female employee as two other women attack her at the checkout aisle. As the employee is being held down, a woman in a pink shirt is seen savagely raining punches down on the victim, as another suspect starts to viciously stomp on her.

Almost weekly in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, France and Germany, a sensational assault committed by an illegal migrant — often enjoying some sort of state support or with prior arrests for the same crime — surfaces. Until recently, European politicians and the media sought to either ignore such news or accuse those who clamored for tighter borders, more police protection and stiffer penalties of being “racists” or “xenophobes.” Until recently, that is.
Bill Clinton is facing renewed questions about his health after he and his wife, Hillary, were spotted leaving the Hamptons this week with a portable defibrillator bag in tow — just two months after the 79-year-old former president was seen stumbling on a Big Apple sidewalk. The longtime Democratic power couple was photographed Thursday carrying what appeared to be a Propaq MD Air Medical Bag — a transport monitor and defibrillator commonly used in emergencies — as they boarded a private plane.
A 15-year-old boy with a rap sheet was arrested — while still wearing an ankle monitor — for a deadly shooting this week during an explosion of violence in The Bronx, police and sources said Friday. The teenager, identified by law-enforcement sources as Daniel Martinez, was charged with murder for the shooting death of Kelvin Mosquea, 34, outside NYCHA’s Sack Wern Houses Tuesday, authorities said. The broad daylight shooting is believed to have been the result of a robbery gone wrong, sources said – and added to a weeklong wave of gun violence for the Boogie Down

Fried and furious. Disturbing footage captured the moment a massive melee broke out on a Carnival Cruise ship among fuming passengers seemingly upset over “chicken tenders.” The violence among about two dozen brawlers erupted aboard the Sunshine at about 2 a.m. Monday — the last day of its voyage — as the ship was heading back to Miami, according to a passenger who filmed the mayhem.
A 14-year-old boy was stabbed to death in a Bronx playground during a mass brawl in which a 17-year-old was also repeatedly stabbed, with at least five people taken into custody, according to cops and sources. Angel Mendoza was found with multiple stab wounds when police responded to the fight at Williamsbridge Oval Playground in Norwood just after 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, the NYPD said. He was jumped by a group of at least seven others while he was holding up his hands, according to one friend and witness.
WASHINGTON — Lame-duck CBS late-night host Stephen Colbert showed Democratic Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker just how gerrymandered the Land of Lincoln is after dozens of Texas Dem legislators stalled redistricting in their own state by decamping to Pritzker’s domain. The face of “The Late Show” displayed a congressional map of Illinois during Pritzker’s appearance Tuesday night, highlighting one district that he said looked just like “the stinger on a scorpion.” “If you are considering doing a little more redrawing in Illinois, you already have some crazy districts in Illinois,” Colbert told the governor.
Five soldiers were wounded at Fort Stewart in Georgia after the US Army base’s commander reported an active shooter and placed the sprawling compound on lockdown for a little more than an hour Wednesday. The soldiers were treated at the scene and transported to Winn Army Community Hospital, according to an update from Fort Stewart just before 1 p.m. The same post said the shooter — who law enforcement sources told CNN was also a soldier — was apprehended around 40 minutes after the lockdown was declared, and there was no “active threat to the community.”

Is Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) going to retire? Townhall has been hearing whispers from some senior Democratic sources that the longtime New York Senator could be retiring from public life for numerous reasons, not least being that Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) could make good on her move to primary him. Now, AOC venturing outside the state could be an early move to consolidate her national constituency for a 2028 presidential run, which she could do, but she has options. And this seat is gettable for her: Schumer is not well-liked among Democratic voters, and his fundraising has been abysmal.
New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani is an avowed Jew-hater who has repeatedly demonstrated over the last decade his hatred for Israel; his support for Hamas; and even his support for a “global intifada,” which, by extension, includes the destruction of the United States as we know it. And yet, according to recent polls, 43% of New York Jews are supporting him, including 67% of Jewish voters between the ages of 18 and 44.
This is analogous to black voters voting for former KKK Grand Wizard David Duke (who ran for president in 1992). How is it even possible for these Jewish New Yorkers to be supporting

As you've heard, there is a governor's race in Virginia. It looked like an easy victory for the Democrats a few weeks ago, and then some texts surfaced and things changed. It's a lot more competitive, and the Democrats are sending former President Obama to the rescue:
Former President Barack Obama is endorsing Democratic former Rep. Abigail Spanberger in the Virginia governor's race and starring in two new digital ads for her campaign.
"Virginia's elections are some of the most important in the country this year," Obama says in both ads, shared first with NBC News, which focus on the economy and abortion rights.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) on Friday went off on White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt while talking about political violence and recent controversies in connection with the Republican Party.
“We’ve already seen a rise in political violence and hatred in America, and then you’ve got swastikas apparently appearing in the offices of Republican members of Congress,” Jeffries told reporters on Capitol Hill. “You’ve got Young Republicans engaging in the most antisemitic and racist speech possible.” Jefferies said Republicans “are ripping the sheets off” before turning his attention to President Trump’s press secretary. And then you’ve got Karoline Leavitt, who’s sick; she’s out of control,” Jeffries continued. “I’m not sure
After a U.S.-led campaign, the United Nations has postponed a vote on a proposal to impose the world’s first global carbon tax on shipping, delaying the decision by one year.
The rule was expected to come up for a vote this week as part of the U.N. International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) "Net-Zero Framework." But a majority of member nations voted to defer it after failing to reach consensus amid U.S. opposition.
Backed by the European Union and Brazil, the plan seeks to raise billions from carriers that exceed new emissions limits, channeling the revenue toward climate adaptation and clean-fuel projects in developing nations.
Washington and Riyadh led the opposition.
The “moral equivalent of war” is often used to elevate an otherwise non-threatening event into an existential threat. But today, the U.S. and indeed, all of Western civilization, faces a very real existential threat, one equal to war: the global collapse of fertility and families.
In country after country, the stark, awful news emerges on a nearly daily basis: birth rates are plunging as women disengage from traditional marriage and family life, and young men do the same.
The U.S. is no exception.
Last year, the U.S. fertility rate plunged to an all-time low of 1.6 children per woman, a rate roughly 24% below the 2.1 children required j

President Donald Trump on Thursday warned Hamas “we will have no choice but to go in and kill them” if internal bloodshed persists in Gaza.
The grim warning from Trump came after he previously downplayed the internal violence in the territory since a ceasefire and hostage deal between Israel and Hamas went into effect last week in the two-year war.
Trump later clarified he won’t send U.S. troops into Gaza after launching the threat against Hamas.
“It’s not going to be us,” Trump said in an exchange with reporters. “We won’t have to. There are people very close, very nearby that will go in and they’ll do the trick very easily,
University presidents aren’t Donald Trump

Former Secretary of Education, Senator and university president, Lamar Alexander, declared in the Wall Street Journal that “Donald Trump Isn’t a University President.”
The old-school political insider and prior university administrator, goes on to criticize President Trump’s “Compact for Higher Education,” which would establish a national board of trustees for the 6,000 universities and colleges across the United States.
Mr. Alexander tells readers that this will have the apparently distasteful consequence of establishing admissions guidelines, managing university costs, creating testing standards for faculty competence and hiring, and setting criteria for international student admissions. He asserts that this is an example of federal overreach.

If the X platform hadn't been messing with my algorithms of late, I might have missed this. But thanks to Elon Musk’s sometimes quirky social media platform, I was treated this afternoon to non-stop reposts from leftists all featuring the same 20-second clip of White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt on Fox News. This clip is blowing up my feed, and all of the posters are outraged Democrats.The clip was brought to us by none other than Aaron Rupar, who has a reputation for sitting at his computer all day looking for conservative media hits to take out of context and post to social media.
NBC News will be terminating 150 Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) employees who are responsible for "Black, Latino, Asian and LGBTQ+" coverage in the newsroom.
The Wrap, in an exclusive, reported that NBC News was firing its teams dedicated to issues affecting those communities.
NBC News executive vice president of editorial, Catherine Kim, announced the cuts to staff on the morning of Oct. 15. Kim claimed that the layoffs made things a “difficult day for a lot of us,” the Wrap reported.
The Wednesday newsroom massacre comes as NBC News splits from its sister news network, MSNBC.
The total reductions will cut about 7% of NBC News’ 2,000 newsroom staffers
During his campaign to secure the 2020 Democrat presidential nomination, Joe Biden infamously told the leftist co-hosts of ABC’s The View that, “from the beginning,” he believed Anita Hill’s unsubstantiated allegations of sexual harassment against now-Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.
“Not only didn’t I vote for Clarence Thomas, I believed [Hill] from the beginning. I was against Clarence Thomas, I did everything in my power to defeat Clarence Thomas and he won by the smallest margin anyone ever won going on the Supreme Court,” Biden said in the 2019 interview.

Sen. Bernie Sanders's (I., Vt.) campaign spent $78,371 chartering private jets between July and September, according to federal campaign finance disclosures it submitted Wednesday. Just a few hours later, Sanders lamented that the United States is "increasingly becoming an oligarchic form of society," during a CNN town hall.
It continues the campaign's pattern of spending lavishly on private air travel. During the six months prior, Friends of Bernie Sanders spent more than $450,000 chartering jets. Sanders has been unapologetic about his use of private jets. Sanders scoffed when Fox News anchor Bret Baier asked him about a Washington Free Beacon report highlighting his spending on private jets

This is a classic example of Fake News. There are NO polar bears. They became extinct when the polar ice caps melted. Don't believe a word of the story - - or the AI-generated photos. Polar bears are extinct!
