With the rapid takeover of their party by the Democratic Socialists of America underway, it’s time for every Democrat to answer for what the DSA believes in. As the City Journal’s Stu Smith reported, the DSA has adopted a new platform that is, incredibly enough, even more radical than its previous one. Although it still hasn’t been published on its website, an advance version, which Smith obtained, is straight-up Marxism, declaring “the entire global system of capital” as its enemy and promising to “build a new society from the ground up.” We doubt that many Democrats – much less the general public –

You can’t make this up. I mean, people signing up for Obamacare without social security numbers. I thought that was impossible, but I guess not. Surprise! Surprise! Let’s hear from Secretary Kennedy: Picking up where the text leaves off: Hold someone accountable for putting lots of people in Obamacare? I hope so, because that large a number suggests this is more than a minor mistake or data entry error. A ton of people on Obamacare without Social Security numbers tells me that someone was behind this scheme.
Man, it’s been fun watching old-school Democrats freak out as they watch their party get taken over by extremist democratic socialists. New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (14) was perhaps the biggest early warning shot, as the DSA member managed to upset longtime incumbent Rep. Joe Crowley in the 2018 Dem primary for her seat. Now we’ve got the far-left Zohran Mamdani as NYC Mayor, America-hating Darializa Avila Chevalier sending five-term incumbent New York Rep. Adriano Espaillat packing in their primary, along with other concerning wins, especially in the Empire State.
In a cruel irony, just days before we celebrate the 250th anniversary of the creation of the United States of America, which could not have happened without thousands of able-bodied men bearing their own arms to defend their freedom and liberty, the state of Rhode Island will make it illegal to purchase or sell the modern version of a musket. AR-15s and other semi-automatic firearms labeled "assault weapons" will be prohibited for sale beginning on July 1, and some Democrats are demanding the state go even further and ban their possession as well.
When Sir Keir Starmer walked into Downing Street in July 2024, the Labour Party had just won one of the largest parliamentary majorities in modern history. They took 412 seats, yet only one in five eligible voters actually voted for them.
That paradox sits at the heart of British democracy right now – and it is getting harder to ignore.
Labour’s landslide was not the product of a surge in support. It was the product of a split. While Labour held its coalition together, the right-of-centre vote fractured badly between the Conservative Party and a surging Reform UK. Across the UK, the combined —

The recent sweeping victories by Democratic Socialists in New York have political observers of both parties paying attention, although for different reasons. The Democratic Party appears to continue to abandon most of its traditionally reliable voting blocs. But while Democratic Socialists blather on about helping working people, there is one specific group of working people who may get hit the hardest by the new crop of socialist candidates, and it will determine where their support ultimately ends up. The leaders of one of New York City's most prominent labor union have spoken out about the Democratic Socialist wins in the Big Apple. Robert "Bobby" Bartels, Jr.,
The United Kingdom is having a hot summer. Granted, that's a little bit of an eyebrow-raiser in the U.K., which is famous for cool, damp weather, but it happens. Of course, many places see warm summer weather, and for the last few decades, people who live in the civilized world have had a great modern solution to hot weather: Air conditioning. AC not only makes life more comfortable, but for some people, like the elderly and people in poor health, it can be a lifesaver during serious heat waves. It's a lifesaver that's now being denied to Brits, because of the government's lunatic Net Zero policies.
Residents of a small Massachusetts island community are shocked and furious upon learning from town officials that they may not be able to fly American flags to celebrate the nation’s upcoming 250th birthday.
As Fox News reported on Saturday, homeowners on Plum Island received a letter from the town of Newbury warning them last week that it had become aware of multiple “devices and materials intended to deter” protected shorebirds from frequenting beach and dune systems.
These materials included “mylar streamers, flags, and reflective materials.”

“Come MPs and prime ministers, please heed the call,” Bob Dylan might sing about Europe. “Don’t stand in the doorway. Don’t block up the hall…. For the times they are a-changin’.”
Or at least may be changing – not only in Europe but across the globe.
Europe’s ruling elites opened their countries’ borders to millions of unvetted, largely Third World, often Islamist migrants with little interest in assimilating – and gave them free lodging, food and medical care (paid with other people’s money), and an official blind eye to rising crime and molestation of women.

On July 4, Americans will celebrate the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. At the heart of that document is the proclamation that “all men are created equal” and “are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights.” Today, many people think that belief in a Creator is a subjective preference based on their personal faith. But that was not the view of America’s Founders. Nor was it the view held by many of the thinkers who preceded them.
More than two millennia ago, key Greek and Roman thinkers already argued that nature supplies objective evidence of a Creator.
President Donald Trump issued an executive order on June 25 directing federal agencies to expand support for regenerative agriculture and related farm practices.
The order builds on Executive Order 14212, which created the Make America Healthy Again Commission in February 2025. It states that the Departments of Health and Human Services and Agriculture, along with the Environmental Protection Agency, have already committed more than $1 billion toward farm modernization and food supply security.
The new directive sets policy to advance precision agriculture technologies, increase federal spending on regenerative practices, research, and education, and encourage private innovation through reduced regulation and public-private partnerships.
The statistics watchdog has formally intervened after two Oxford academics complained that the Covid Inquiry cited “highly uncertain modelling”. The Telegraph has the story:
Two Oxford academics wrote to the Office for Statistics Regulation (OSR) to complain that in its latest report, the inquiry cited “highly uncertain modelling” with a “degree of confidence and authority that the underlying evidence cannot sustain”.
Prof Carl Heneghan, Director of Oxford’s Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine and Dr Tom Jefferson, a Senior Associate Tutor at the university, contacted the statistics watchdog last month.

President Trump on Saturday threatened to wipe Iran off the face of the Earth after US forces launched strikes against the country for its violations of the 60-day memorandum of understanding and ceasefire.
“It is very possible that they will never learn!” Trump said, noting that Iranian missile, drone storage locations, and coastal radar sites were hit by US aircraft.
“There may come a point when we are no longer able to be reasonable, and will be forced to militarily complete the job that we very successfully started,” he continued. “If that happens, the Islamic Republic of Iran will no longer exist!”
- .WASHINGTON — U.S. Senator Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) announced that he will introduce legislation to increase the federal minimum wage to $25 an hour. If the legislation passes, it would be the first change to the federal rate since 2009. The Living Wage For All Act would require large corporate employers to implement a $25 wage floor by 2032, while other businesses would have until 2039 to do so. The bill would mandate automatic, continued increases of the federal minimum wage to two-thirds of the national median wage. “There is nowhere in America where a worker with just one dependent can

Residents of a Massachusetts coastal town say that they were warned that flying flags on their own property could violate endangered species laws, sparking outrage in the community just days before the nation’s 250th anniversary.
Plum Island homeowners recently received a notice from the Town of Newbury warning that it had “become aware of the use of devices and materials intended to deter” protected shorebirds from using local beach and dune systems.
The letter listed “mylar streamers, flags, [and] reflective materials” as examples of such devices. The letter, obtained by Fox News Digital, goes on to caution that “activities intended to deter protected shorebirds from utilizing suitable habitat may be viewed as
Europe's Boiling Frogs

We all know the myth – to boil frogs, slowly increase the temperature so they won’t realize it until it’s too late to jump out of the pot and save themselves. This summer, it appears the frogs are starting to feel the heat. Along with the anger at open borders, this may finally presage the end of the green nonsense and the politicians who are destroying their countries by promoting this hogswallop.
Like clockwork, it gets hot in summer in western Europe. And like clockwork, the morons in the European ministries and media blame climate change for their own failure to face reality and make proper provisions for adapting to it.
Watch the reaction to the primaries in New York last week and you will hear a word that would have ended a campaign a generation ago: socialism. Candidates now say it with pride. Commentators warn, accurately, that the platform beneath it, abolishing borders, defunding the police, seizing private property, is something far more radical than the politics most of the public grew up with.
Here is the question almost no one is asking: where did these ideas come from? They did not appear overnight on a ballot. They were taught. For two decades, they were cultivated, rewarded, and treated as obvious in American classrooms, first in our universities and then
Billionaire Democratic kingmaker George Soros and his son Alex spent a staggering $102.8 million in the midterm election cycle — making the family chief architects of the party’s seismic shift toward the radical left.
With the November elections still more than four months away, George Soros could shatter his own spending record of $128 million set during the last midterms four years ago, when he was the biggest single donor.
“Money talks, and Soros money says the most insidious, unconstitutional, costly tax hikes in American history are on the table,” said Douglas Kellogg, state projects director for Americans for Tax Reform.

As we reported, the victory of socialists in their primaries in New York City to be the Democratic nominees for Congress has sparked a lot of discussion.
Their supporters were feeling their oats so much that they were even chanting, "You're next!" at House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries when he appeared on a TV screen at one of their watch parties. When Jeffries was asked about that and some of the terrible positions/statements made by one of the candidates, Jeffries couldn't even give a credible response, and just immediately deflected to Donald Trump.
After the candidates he backed swept their democratic congressional primaries, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani said his democratic socialist message can win nationally. "I think a democratic socialist can get elected anywhere across this country for any position," Mamdani told ABC News' "This Week" co-anchor Jonathan Karl in an exclusive interview that aired Sunday. (Snip) Pressed by Karl on whether he plans to use his political capital in races outside of New York ahead of the midterms, Mamdani said while he's focused for now on the candidates he endorsed, the issues that resonated in New York are felt across
Obamacare is expensive, unconstitutional, socialist, and bloated. It is also — surprise, surprise — riddled with fraud.
Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Administrator Mehmet Oz revealed the stunning number of Obamacare users who never provided a Social Security number, raising serious questions about the scope of fraud in the government healthcare insurance program. In a Saturday video, Kennedy and Oz updated the American people on efforts to uncover and root out fraud. The HHS secretary began, "The Obamacare marketplace is plagued by fraud, in large part because the Biden administration dismantled basic program integrity guardrails.

The U.S. and Iran have agreed to “stand down for now” and allow ships to pass through the Strait of Hormuz after renewed fighting in the past few days, a U.S. official told The Hill on Sunday.
“Technical talks are slated to continue on all areas of the MOU. Both sides will stand down for now and vessels can move freely,” the official said, referring to the memorandum of understanding signed by both sides earlier this month.
The war against Iran, which started four months ago on Sunday, has stressed the global economy, raised gas prices in the U.S. and strained America’s relations with Israel and traditional European allies.
A new proposal to build a domestic internet could strengthen U.S. cybersecurity as the digital world sinks its fingers into every aspect of American life.
InfraCo, a 501(c)4 nonprofit, has a meeting with the Department of Transportation next week to propose the $125 billion President Donald J. Trump Digital Security and Information Superhighway Act, which would lay the groundwork for the creation of a publicly owned domestic fiber-optic internet system. InfraCo is calling this system the National Broadband Master Plan, and it could harden U.S. digital infrastructure to be more resistant to foreign cyberattacks.
