U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy highlighted the case Wednesday on X, sharing a video that shows a white semi-truck speeding southbound in the northbound lanes of Highway 61 near Troy, MO. The footage (snip) depicts oncoming vehicles switching lanes to avoid the 80-ton rig before law enforcement intervened.

A portrait of embattled former U.S. Senate Leader George Mitchell has been stripped from the Maine State House, a move that the state's top investigative journalist calls possibly Mitchell's ultimate indignity. Maine legislative officials have been under pressure to take the Democrat ex-leader's portrait down from the wall where it has hung for 14 years. (snip) The portrait's removal comes just three weeks after Mitchell resigned as chairman of the Mitchell Institute following the recent unsealing of documents related to the Jeffrey Epstein sex abuse case.

(snip) "If refunds are issued to FedEx, we will issue refunds to the shippers and consumers who originally bore these charges," FedEx said in a statement on Thursday.

Abolish City Controller's Office Amid
Massive Fraud Scandals 5 replies
In a move that has ignited fierce backlash, the Los Angeles Charter Reform Commission voted 9-2 on Thursday to advance a proposal that would effectively eliminate the independent City Controller's office, shifting its core functions -- including audits, accounting, payments, revenue forecasting, and fraud investigations to a new Chief Financial Officer (CFO) appointed by Karen Bass and accountable to the City Council. This reform, framed by supporters as a consolidation of financial operations to address the city's budget crisis, comes just weeks after Controller Kenneth Meija's office played a significant role in exposing a $23 million homeless fraud scheme (snip)

The revolutionary Iranian regime -- which may possibly find itself in a war with the United States in coming days -- has positioned itself as an adversary of the United States since it came into power decades ago in 1979. Much of the discussion (snip) has focused on the Iranian regime's nuclear program (snip) but not as much attention has been placed on a host of Iranian-directed terrorist attacks against U.S. troops, diplomats, and citizens which have killed hundreds of Americans.

Mamdani Promotes Islam

Last Sunday, as a massive blizzard hit New York City, Comrade Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani posted praise of municipal workers on X: “Grateful for the public workers who keep NYC running — especially in a blizzard. From 5am suhoor with @NYCSanitation to visits to @nycparks’ Randall’s Island garage, DSNY’s Flushing plow shed & @nycdot’s salting operation … it’s working people who show up for NYC.”
Mamdani included four photos, including one of him praying with four Muslim workers from the Department of Sanitation; suhoor is the meal that Muslims eat before dawn during Ramadan, as the fasting period begins with the rising of the sun.
The federal income tax is abusive. It is inconsistent with liberty. It has, as Chief Justice John Marshall noted, the power to destroy. There is nothing positive to be said about it. It cannot even raise government revenues efficiently. As we said a year ago, of all the good Donald Trump could do in his second term, eliminating the federal income tax would be one of his greatest achievements.
It’s clearly one of his goals.
“As time goes by, I believe the tariffs paid for by foreign countries will, like in the past, substantially replace the modern-day system of income tax,” Trump said during his State of the Union address.

A Democrat running for office in California has reportedly called to defund the Pentagon, but her husband works for a company that built missiles the United States is believed to have used during the recent strikes on the Islamic regime in Iran.
Fatima Iqbal-Zubair is a candidate for the state’s 65th Assembly District and her husband, Fazlul Zubair, is an engineer manager for Raytheon, the New York Post reported Monday.
The United States and Israel launched a joint military operation targeting Iran on Saturday in part to ensure the regime will never have the capability to threaten the world with nuclear weapons, according to Breitbart News.
French President Emmanuel Macron said that the joint American-Israeli military strikes against Iran are “outside of international law.” Addressing the French public in a national broadcast, President Macron said that while Iran “bears primary responsibility for this situation,” his government also disapproves of the strikes taken by the United States and Israel against the regime in Tehran. The United States of America and Israel have decided to launch military operations, conducted outside of international law, which we cannot approve,” Macron said, according to Le Figaro.
Saying that this decision sends "a powerful message that the Constitution still protects families, and California schools are not above the law," parents and teachers in California have won a "monumental" ruling at the U.S. Supreme Court, halting California schools from secretly transitioning children and hiding the information from parents until the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals issues its final decision.
The U.S. Supreme Court threw out a 9th Circuit Court ruling that allowed government-run schools to keep secretly transitioning children while California parents pursued a lawsuit against the state.
The 6-3 ruling means that the parents will be able to continue exercising their fundamental civil rights "under the Free Exercise
The son of Iranian Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was selected to replace him as supreme leader, according to a report in opposition media.
Mojtaba Khamenei, 56, was tapped to assume control of the country by Iran’s Assembly of Experts, a powerful body of clerics, Iranian International said Tuesday. The report was widely being picked up by Israeli media but had not been confirmed by Iranian state mouthpieces.
Mojtaba was at first believed to have been among the 40 top Iranian aides killed during the Saturday strike that took out Iran’s highest-ranking cleric.

A Russian mogul who once called sex-trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell his “soulmate” was found dead in a luxury Moscow apartment Monday, according to reports — just weeks after his name surfaced in the Jeffrey Epstein files.
Umar Dzhabrailov, a Chechen businessman and former senator, was discovered lying in a pool of blood with a gunshot wound to his head at about 3 a.m., Russian outlet Kommersant reported, citing police sources who called it a suspected suicide.
Police discovered a Luger pistol lying by the 67-year-old’s body. But Dzhabrailov — who had tried to take his life in 2020 — didn’t leave a suicide note, the sources said.
Iranians’ joy vs. Democrats’ shame
11 replies
The outpouring of joy on the streets of LA is impossible to ignore.
Thousands of Iranian-Americans lined Wilshire Boulevard on Saturday and Sunday to celebrate the joint U.S.-Israeli strikes that, they hope, will bring down the Iranian regime.
On Westwood Boulevard, in the heart of “Tehrangeles,” there were raucous cheers inside Persian restaurants. Flags hung everywhere — the sterile tulip of the Islamic Republic replaced by the lion-and-sun of the previous era.
The Iranian people, at home and abroad, believe that freedom is at hand, and that President Donald Trump is bringing the redemption for which they have waited for decades.
U.S. President Donald Trump is “very disappointed” in British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer over his blocking America from using joint military bases to strike Iran, a report states. It is very disappointing that Britain didn’t stand with the United States when it launched strikes against Iran’s military and weapons industry, and British Prime Minister Starmer then took too long to get involved in the defence of Middle Eastern allies once the bombs started flying, President Donald Trump has said.
George F. Will, or as I like to call him George Fwill, absolutely LOATHES Donald Trump.
That should surprise nobody. The geek with a bowtie who often found Reagan beneath him surely would loathe Trump and his classless administration based as much on their crass style as their America First policies.
Unlike many NeverTrumpers, his raw hatred for Trump didn't turn him into a liberal; he is, as much as one person can be, the same as he was in 1979. Dry, arrogant, measured for the most part, and center-right. It's not like he went all Bill Kristol or George Conway on us, so I usually roll my
Last week, FBI Director Kash Patel fired a dozen agents who worked on the case investigating Donald Trump for taking top-secret materials to his Mar-a-Lago residence after his first term was over. Those agents have now been revealed to be part of an elite group specializing in assessing threats from Iran, according to two reports.Multiple sources with knowledge of the personnel move told the New York Sun and confirmed to MS Now that the layoffs impacted the counterespionage group tasked with investigating threats from foreign adversaries out of Iran just days before the US bombed its leaders.
When you’ve constructed a cartoon version of the world in your mind, what do you do when reality proves it wrong?
If you’re the leftist establishment, you certainly don’t rethink your assumptions.
Late Friday, New York Times columnist David French snarkily referred to Secretary of War Pete Hegseth as a “walking MAGA caricature” on X.
Four hours later, Hegseth’s troops were pounding Iran in an intricate series of strikes that left its evil regime reeling.
The response to French — who has not withdrawn his sneer — was unsympathetic.
My favorite: “Let’s have a contest … you and Pete show up at Fort Bragg, see who the troops respect more.”
