Finally, someone said it. And by “someone,” I mean the guy with a brain worm who planted a dead bear in Central Park. In case you missed it, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. just announced new dietary guidelines promoting whole foods, proteins and healthy fats. As a frequent critic of Kennedy’s behavior and anti-vaccination policies, I’m surprised to say this, but … well, you’ve got to hand it to Bobby on this one. “Protein and healthy fats are essential and were wrongly discouraged in prior dietary guidelines,” Kennedy said during a press conference on Wednesday. “The new framework centers on protein and healthy fats, vegetables, fruits and whole grains.

I don't believe that the government has any business issuing dietary guidelines.

They are simply telling what is the best for your health, but it is up to us to decide what our choices will be. Unlike the CDC forced infant vaccine schedule they used to have.

We know a guy who had 300 cholesterol prior to heart valve surgery. This was some years ago. He had no significant arterial blockage. IMO, most of today's "numbers" are to get people on drugs. Big bucks.

It was back in the 50’s that the USDA came up with that dumbarse “food pyramid”. They used Eisenhower’s heart attack as an excuse, saying that it was caused by all the fatty foods he ate, like pork and beef. They conveniently buried the fact that, for 40 years, he’d been smoking four packs of cigarettes (unfiltered Camels) every day!

'Never Want to Be on the Other Side of

A harrowing eyewitness account from a Venezuelan guard who was on the ground when Operation Absolute Resolve hit — the mission to nab illegitimate then-president Nicolás Maduro — describes an unknown sonic weapon used by the U.S. against his security forces. According to the guard, the sonic blast caused them to experience headaches, disorientation, and vomiting of blood as they were completely incapacitated. But is this report true? Did we unleash some heretofore unknown powerful weapon that literally floored much of the enemy before any shots were even fired? In a Saturday social media post, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt seemed to imply that the answer was “yes.”

It's been a certainty for quite some time that many of the "protestors" tearing up the streets in Minneapolis and Portland, just to name a couple of (leftist) cities, were being paid to be there. Shadowy figures behind the scenes, who may or may not be named Soros, are funneling cash and strangely professional-looking signs into these riots. Ever notice how fast those strangely specific, professionally printed signs turn up? That can't be cheap. There is also a guy who organizes protests-for-hire on the up and up.

Donald Trump has ordered his special forces commanders to draw up a plan for the invasion of Greenland - but is being resisted by senior military figures, The Mail on Sunday has learned. Sources say that the policy 'hawks' around the US President, led by political adviser Stephen Miller, have been so emboldened by the success of the operation to capture Venezuela's leader Nicolas Maduro that they want to move quickly to seize the island before Russia or China makes a move. British diplomats believe that Trump is also motivated by a desire to distract American voters from the performance of the US economy before the mid-term elections

Reform UK leader Nigel Farage said “Decent Muslim countries cannot believe how weak the UK is on extremism” as it was claimed the United Arab Emirates (UAE) was blocking its young people from going to university in Britain over extremism fears.

Bombshell: New Cellphone Footage Shows
What Really Happened in ICE Shooting

Yes, I'm back writing, and just in time for a bomb to go off in the middle of the controversy surrounding an ICE-involved shooting in Minneapolis. New cellphone footage taken by the officer who fired the shots provides the best look yet at what happened, and it counters much of the narrative spreading in the mainstream press and on the broader left that this was an unjustified "murder." As RedState reported, a woman was shot and killed after she drove her SUV into the middle of the agents in an attempt to impede an immigration raid. After ignoring orders for three minutes, she was commanded to stop.

You all, this Minneapolis story just keeps getting crazier and crazier. As RedState's Bonchie (yes, he's back!) reported Friday afternoon, a blockbuster new video has emerged showing the view of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent involved in the Wednesday shooting death of Renee Nicole Good, a Minneapolis resident who's been revealed to have been a rabid leftist activist and meddler. The video is both a jaw-dropper and a game-changer.

The former brother-in-law of a mother shot dead by an ICE agent during immigration operations in Minneapolis has argued she 'should have minded her own business'. Renee Nicole Good, 37, was fatally shot in the head while inside her SUV on Wednesday, sparking mass protests in the streets and outrage from Minnesota lawmakers. President Donald Trump and the Department of Homeland Security have defended the agent at the center of the violence, arguing he feared for his life because Good appeared to be accelerating her car in his direction. Now, Good's former brother-in-law Joseph Macklin has weighed in on the tragedy, telling the Daily Mail on Wednesday night

Today I attended a lunch sponsored by the Economic Club of Minnesota, at which Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent spoke. Bessent’s presentation was impressive, not because he is a spellbinder, but because he is a data guy, and the data are remarkably strong. GDP is up, the deficit is down. Inflation is under control. 2026 promises to be a terrific year, driven in part by tax refunds resulting from the Big Beautiful Bill: no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, and so on. The “experts” have been proven wrong. And there was much more. This is from InstaPundit:

President Donald Trump said Thursday the United States will expand operations against drug cartels while touting his takedown of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro during an interview on "Hannity." "We've knocked out 97 percent of the drugs coming in by water, and we are going to start now hitting land," Trump told Fox News host Sean Hannity. "The cartels are running Mexico, it’s very sad to watch, and see what’s happened to that country." "They’re killing 250,000, 300,000 in our country every single year." The appearance marked the president’s first sit-down interview since Maduro’s capture. Trump praised the U.S. military personnel involved in the Venezuelan operations,

Áltica Research, a market and public opinion research firm, just released a poll on Donald Trump's popularity numbers... in Latin America. The polling was conducted on January 3 and 4, after the capture of Nicolás Maduro. This will probably come as no surprise to those of us in the U.S. who realize the good the president is doing for our entire world by taking down Maduro and his regime and restoring Venezuela to peace and sanity, but, as it turns out, the folks south of our border like what our president is doing too. Most of them anyway...

Lawmakers are demanding a range of actions, from a full investigation into Renee Good’s shooting death and policy changes over law enforcement raids to the defunding of ICE operations and the impeachment of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, in what is fast becoming an inflection point.

The couple was originally scheduled to testify before the House Oversight Committee in December but those appearances were moved to January 13 for him and the 14th for her at the request of the couple, who cited a conflict. But now they haven’t confirmed they will be there next week. And Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.), the chairman of the panel, said he’ll slap them with contempt if they don’t show.

The organization that oversees the Nobel Peace Prize is throwing cold water on talk of Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado giving her recent award to President Donald Trump. Once the Nobel Peace Prize is announced, it can’t be revoked, transferred or shared with others, the Norwegian Nobel Institute said in a short statement on Friday. “The decision is final and stands for all time,” it said. The statement comes after Machado said she’d like to give or share the prize with Trump, who oversaw the successful U.S. operation to capture authoritarian Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro. He is facing drug trafficking charges in New York.

Iran’s parliament speaker warned Sunday that the U.S. military and Israel would be “legitimate targets” if America strikes the Islamic Republic over the ongoing protests roiling the country, as threatened by President Donald Trump. Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf made the threat after nationwide protests challenging Iran’s theocracy saw protesters flood the streets in the country’s capital and its second-largest city into Sunday morning, crossing the two-week mark as violence surrounding the demonstrations has killed at least 116 people, activists said. With the internet down in Iran and phone lines cut off, gauging the demonstrations from abroad has grown more difficult.

Delegate Karen Keys-Gamarra (D) introduced legislation to create a $500 tax on suppressor sales in the state of Virginia. The bill, HB 207, “Imposes a firearm suppressor tax equal to $500 per retail sale of any firearm suppressor by a dealer in firearms.” Keys-Gamarra’s bill directs monies from the tax to “be deposited in the general fund.” A long-standing $200 federal tax on suppressors was wiped out by President Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill which took effect January 1, 2026. This means suppressor sales around the nation are now hundred of dollars lower than they were even one month ago. But HB 207 will force Virginians to ante up $500, on top

President Donald Trump is seeking nearly $6.3 million from Georgia’s Fulton County in connection with the dismissed case against him pursued by District Attorney Fani Willis. In 2023, Willis had Trump indicted under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations law, claiming Trump acted illegally in his efforts to push back against the results of the 2020 presidential election. The case was eventually dismissed, and in December 2024, the Georgia Court of Appeals said that a lower court made a mistake in giving Willis and special prosecutor Nathan Wade, a romantic partner of Willis, the choice of one or the other stepping aside, according to the website Law and Crime.
