Defund The U.N.

The United Nations is having a budget crisis. It might have to lay off part of its staff. No one should be brokenhearted over this. It should instead be cause for celebration. The U.N. is nothing more than a parasite leeching off the American taxpayer while propping up dictators, terrorists, and every left-wing crackpot scheme ever dreamed up. It should be dissolved. Earlier this year, U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres “sent a dramatic letter to” member states to warn them “about the ‘imminent financial collapse'” of the organization,

A Democratic assemblyman has been accused of dabbling in drugs, alcohol and having a gambling addiction as his wife’s bombshell divorce documents were made public.
Joaquin Arambula, who is running to be a councilmember on Fresno City Council, is in a legal battle with Elizabeth Arambula, who filed for divorce in January and wrote a lengthy appeal for child custody.
“For years, I have covered for Respondent’s struggles with alcohol, marijuana, and gaming, concealing them from our children, family, friends, and his professional circle,” Elizabeth Arambula said according to court documents, in which she is seeking spousal support for the couple’s three children, now aged 11, 14, and 15.
Former CBS anchor Josh Elliott has filed for divorce from his wife, Liz Cho, after nearly a decade of marriage — and they are now embroiled in a vicious court battle.
In Connecticut court papers obtained by Page Six, Elliott filed to end his marriage to the ABC anchor on June 20, 2025.
“The marriage of the parties has broken down irretrievably,” the court papers read, as Elliott is asking for a “dissolution of the marriage” and for “an equitable distribution of all property, both real and personal.”
Spain is “indirectly” assisting the United States’ military action against Iran’s Islamic regime despite socialist PM Pedro Sánchez’s opposition to the operations, local outlets reported. On Wednesday, Sánchez delivered a brief statement expressing his opposition to the United States and Israel’s ongoing actions against the Iranian regime, and assumed a purported neutral stance by proclaiming, “The Spanish government’s position can be summed up: no to war.” Sánchez issued his proclamation hours after President Donald Trump threatened to cut off all trade with Spain in response to the European country’s refusal to allow the U.S. military to use its bases to strike Iran.
At times, you could be forgiven for having thought that Kristi Noem wanted to be a uniformed Department of Homeland Security officer rather than the secretary of the department.
Now, the cabinet member most inclined to glamour shots out in the field is going to have to go back to wearing civilian clothes.
For all his trademark firings during “The Apprentice” and the rapid turnover of his first term, President Trump has been loath to oust top officials this time around.
Noem is the exception, and she’s earned the dubious distinction.
Incompetent and preposterously self-promoting,
An update on fraud in Minnesota
4 replies
The new interim staff report on Minnesota’s fraud describes criminal activity that was enabled by a horrifying pattern of spineless government incompetence and systemic failure. Some say Minnesota is just the tip of the iceberg. Best guess? Government, both state and federal, is rife with it.
According to the March 4, 2026 House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform report, “The Cost of Doing Nothing: How Tim Walz and Keith Ellison Fueled Minnesota’s Fraud Explosion,” there was a massive failure in “governance and oversight” that allowed “known fraud and criminal schemes to flourish,”
President Trump on Thursday confirmed his dissatisfaction with a pricey ad campaign that featured Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem.
The comments to NBC News come after Trump announced that Noem would soon be replaced as DHS chief. The $220 million advertisement depicted the former South Dakota governor on horseback, encouraging immigrants to self-deport from the U.S. Noem claimed Trump approved the ad — a claim the president refuted to Reuters shortly before she was removed from the role Thursday afternoon.
“I wasn’t thrilled with it. I spent less money than that to become president,” Trump told NBC’s Garrett Haake later Thursday. “I didn’t know about it.”
Fifty-seven percent of Americans want all illegal migrants sent home, according to a Harvard Harris poll.
The 57 percent includes 54 percent of political independents and 79 percent of Republicans, but just 35 percent of Democrats, said the February 26-28 poll of 1,999 registered voters by The Harris Poll and HarrisX. The majority support for mass deportations is notable because it remains strong amid massive resistance by pro-migration politicians, the Democrat establishment, the establishment media, and various pop-culture influencers.
The poll also showed 63 percent support for a draft law that would bar the award of commercial driver’s licenses to illegal migrants. Just 40 percent of Democrats favor the curbs.
While Jamaat has often participated in electoral politics, its long-term objective has remained unchanged: the establishment of a theocratic state under Islamic jurisprudence.
Within hours of the news [of Iranian Supreme Guide Ayatollah Ali Khameni's elimination].... Jamaat-e-Islami...[s]enior leaders delivered speeches accusing the United States and Israel of "murder" and calling for mass mobilization.
Even though organizationally separate, the Muslim Brotherhood and Jamaat have maintained ideological synergy and periodic cooperation across South Asia and the Middle East. Both movements frame global politics as a civilizational struggle between Islamic governance and Western liberalism
For President Donald J. Trump, it doesn't take another 9/11 attack on the United States to strike at the head of a snake.
His preemptive assault on the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism, Iran, recognizes the stark reality that the ruling ayatollahs and their Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps have not only sworn to destroy the State of Israel but seek to dominate the entire Middle East, from Yemen to Syria and beyond. They have slaughtered their own citizens, murdered American military personnel, and encouraged and funded acts of terror worldwide.
Despite Trump's efforts to engage in diplomacy,
Is a Business Credit Crisis Imminent?
4 replies
Credit markets tend to unravel at the margins first. What begins as stress in a few vulnerable industries can, under the right macroeconomic conditions, morph into something broader and more systemic. That risk is becoming more salient as stagflation concerns -- a toxic combination of slower growth and stickier inflation which hasn’t been seen since the 1970s -- re-enter the conversation. In such an environment, the leveraged loan market is often the first pressure point. These floating-rate loans, typically issued by below-investment grade companies, are especially sensitive to higher interest costs and softer demand. Recently, cracks that began in tariff-exposed chemical producers spread to auto-related borrowers,
Republican voters’ routine apathy to the primary process has permitted RINOs to hijack the party and stonewall conservative priorities. Conservatives are about to have the chance to oust some of the Republican Party’s worst elected officials. The question is: Will they take it?
Primary elections to decide which Republicans will run in the 2026 midterms are now officially underway, with the states of Arkansas, North Carolina, and Texas each holding such elections on Tuesday. The states are the nation’s first primary contests for the 2026 cycle —

His “Glory Days” with some fans have passed him by. Bruce Springsteen’s fans are furious over the legendary rocker’s astronomical ticket prices for his upcoming “Land of Hope and Dreams” tour, which critics argue are unaffordable for his “working class fanbase” and contradict his Man of the People image. The woke New Jersey billionaire is pushing the anti-President Trump “No Kings” agenda in his advertising campaign for the 20-date tour with his E Street Band — but is ironically charging prices fit for royalty, at up to $3,000 a ticket. “I couldn’t be more disappointed in the Boss … how
A leaked draft of the UK Government’s new ‘social cohesion’ strategy has sparked outrage by labeling the flying of English, Scottish, and Union Jack flags as potential “tools of hate.”
The document claims these national symbols were sometimes used last summer to “exclude or intimidate,” adding that the “extreme right has tried to turn symbols of pride into tools of hate.”
The 47-page draft, leaked to the Spectator magazine, also highlights how antisemitism has become “normalised in many corners of society” from schools and universities to workplaces and the NHS.
Jesse Jackson's funeral was held Friday at the House of Hope on Chicago's South Side. Every major Democrat who still matters showed up: Joe Biden, Bill Clinton, Kamala Harris, Hillary Clinton, Jill Biden, California Gov. Gavin Newsom.
That’s right: sitting with a bunch of other couples, Barack Obama once again went stag. The Obamas themselves issued a joint statement about Jackson's death that made Michelle's absence on Friday all the more glaring. "Michelle got her first glimpse of political organizing at the Jacksons' kitchen table when she was a teenager," the statement read. "And in his two historic runs for president, he laid the foundation for my own campaign
CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA (AP) — Across the country, progressives are lighting a fire that they hope will catapult Democrats back to power in Congress this year. But here in a hotel ballroom, the party’s beleaguered moderates have another message — not so fast.
Leaders at Third Way’s conference talked over and over about how Democrats can’t swing too far left in the midterms, or when picking their next presidential nominee, if they have any hope of winning back the White House.
The title of the two-day, invite-only conference: “Winning the Middle.” And there was plenty of advice on how to do that. Be plainspoken, not lofty or academic. Don’t live online, but
Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union,” Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) said the Trump administration “fails to understand how to achieve any of their objectives” in Iran.
Host Jake Tapper said, “So as I just referenced this morning on Axios, two very Well-sourced reporters in the administration, Barak Ravid, Marc Caputo for Axios are reporting that the US is weighing, they have not made a decision, but are weighing sending in special forces to specifically seize Iran’s enriched uranium. You heard Senator Tillis say that might necessitate congressional authorization for use of force. What’s your reaction?”
Murphy said, “I mean, this is already a war that is becoming an ongoing disaster.

Senate candidate who espouses non-binary
God, six genders 17 replies
In deep-red Texas, the Democrats have chosen a Senate candidate whose Christian faith the party hopes will be a potent weapon, but whose unorthodox views range from God is nonbinary to there are six sexes.
“God is both masculine and feminine and everything in between,” said James Talarico, a state representative and, now, the Democratic nominee for Senate. “God is nonbinary.”
Progressive Christianity may be a hard sell
The statement is part of dozens of claims about God, Christianity, and morality that Talarico has made on the campaign trail, and before he ran for higher office, geared towards “[reclaiming] Christianity for the left.”
It’s not really surprising. The trend of funerals turning into political rallies and platforms for lecturing those with whom they disagree started with Paul Wellstone's funeral, which was also a rally. So, when the memorial service for the late Reverend Jesse Jackson was held this week with Barack Obama, Joe Biden, the Clintons, and Kamala Harris in attendance, it was no surprise that it turned into a spectacle. It also serves as a reminder of why Donald J. Trump was elected in 2024. [Tweet]
First, Joe Biden, looking half out of his mind, got up there and attacked MAGA Republicans, claiming we don’t share their values.
A former Trump administration official wasted millions of taxpayer dollars given to Immigration and Customs Enforcement to purchase thousands of employee vehicles that the agency cannot use to arrest illegal immigrants, according to sources. (snip) "ICE has never had marked vehicles," the first person familiar with the purchases said in a phone call. "In talking to people, they're like, 'We don't use these, we can't.'" The saga (snip) speaks to the different ways political appointees at the department have tried to approach operations versus how career law enforcement officials have historically done so.
Officials say Operation Metro Surge cost Minneapolis over $203 million in impact. Many neighborhoods, like Lyn-Lake, are still feeling the effects. "It's definitely a taxing time," said Miguel Hernandez, the owner of Lito's Burritos on the corner of Lake and Bryant. Hernandez only opened the restaurant in November. (Snip) "It only takes one sighting in front of your building or supermarket, that's going to clear out your night," said Hernandez. "All of a sudden no one's coming by because they're scared to." "It was day to day on how people felt," Hernandez added, saying he's definitely not the only one
On this week’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday,” Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA) said President Donald Trump had not made the case for the military action in Iran.
Warner said, “Americans are paying $122 million a day extra in gas coming right out of their pockets, that, combined with the declining job numbers, that combined with the stock market crashing, going into this war without I don’t feel like the appropriate preparation or having made the case the American public, I think we’ve got a lot of explaining to do. We don’t know how long Iran will last. The notion and I heard the general earlier, I think
Conservative icon and Hollywood legend James Woods has announced he’s ditching the Republican Party. Woods, a fierce patriot and vocal supporter of President Trump, blasted the “uniparty traitors” in a fiery post on X, declaring, “I am done with the Republican Party.” Woods’ decision comes amid growing frustration with Senate Republican leadership, particularly cowardly Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD), who has continuously stalled the crucial SAVE Act, a bill designed to safeguard American elections by requiring proof of citizenship for voter registration.[snip] “I’m changing my party affiliation to Independent.
Jesse Jackson Jr. took a not-so-subtle swipe at three former Democratic presidents who spoke at his father’s memorial service — Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, and Joe Biden — saying they did not know the real Jesse Jackson.[snip] Jackson Jr. — who served as a Democratic representative from Illinois between 1995 and 2012 — made his remarks a day after the ex-presidents honored his father. Obama’s speech was the most political of the three former presidents, with Obama clearly dissing President Donald Trump at one point, without mentioning him by name.
