Even as presidential envoy Steve Witkoff is scheduled to make another trip to the Kremlin to present the revised 18-point peace plan for Ukraine and Russia (see New Development: Ukraine Embraces Trump's Peace Plan Essentials – RedState), Russian President Vladimir Putin has signaled that no deal is imminent. Putin used the occasion of the post-Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) summit press conference in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan, on Thursday, to make it clear that there would be no agreement of any sort signed with Ukraine. If you aren’t familiar with the CSTO,

New York City’s mayor-elect put out a statement about the National Guard member Sarah Beckstrom, who died after being shot in Washington, DC this week. Mamdani’s message is being slammed on Twitter/X for leaving out or twisting rather important details about the incident. See if you can spot what is wrong with his message. Take a look below: Passing? She just passed away? That’s what happened? Many noticed that the X comment from Zohran Mamdani, the mayor-elect of New York City, in response to the news of Beckstrom’s death, was seriously lacking in some fundamental things.

What we increasingly observe from today’s taxation system is a financial form of ‘anarcho-tyranny’: punishing the habitually law-abiding in ever harsher ways for petty infringements, whilst letting the habitually law-breaking get away with whatever they like. Think of fining a doddery pensioner £500 for accidentally dropping a sweet-wrapper, whilst letting criminal gypsies get away with burning entire mounds of toxic waste. Do comparable two-tier standards now exist in the UK taxation system too? Yes, just somewhat more invisibly than a giant flaming waste-pile burning next to some static caravans on an illegally occupied school playing-field.

In response to the Trump Administration's tariffs aimed at reshoring American manufacturing, Stellantis this fall announced $13 billion in new investment in U.S. operations. Spread across Midwest plants in Michigan, Ohio, Illinois, and Indiana, the investment – the largest in company history - is estimated to create over 5,000 jobs across all four of the transatlantic manufacturer's American brands (Jeep, Dodge, Ram, and Chrysler) plus an additional 20,000 jobs at Stellantis suppliers. "I'm extremely ecstatic about it. Without these tariffs, this probably wouldn't have happened," said Eric Graham, president of United Auto Workers Local 140 representing workers at Michigan's Warren Truck, which stands to gain two new vehicles,

The Trump administration has shot back at a Washington Post article claiming the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) watered down its policy prohibiting the display of Nazi swastikas, with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) calling the report “a demonstrably false storyline.” “The U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify the swastika — an emblem of fascism and white supremacy inextricably linked to the murder of millions of Jews and the deaths of more than 400,000 U.S. troops who died fighting in World War II — as a hate symbol, according to a new policy that takes effect next month,” WaPo‘s Tara Copp and Michelle Boorstein wrote Thursday.

The United Nations Security Council passed a resolution on Monday in support of President Donald Trump’s 20-point peace plan in Gaza, and Trump has been named chairman of the Board of Peace. The resolution passed the council 13-0-2, endorsing the president’s plan, which Hamas agreed to on October 8 and Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, Emir of Qatar Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan officially endorsed in a signing with Trump on October 13. Congratulations to the World on the incredible Vote of the United Nations Security Council, just moments ago, acknowledging and endorsing the BOARD OF PEACE, which will be chaired by me,

The late billionaire sex offender Jeffrey Epstein texted compliments and advice to a Democrat member of Congress while she questioned President Donald Trump’s former attorney in a February 2019 hearing, newly released documents reveal. Thousands of pages of emails, texts, and other documents from Epstein’s estate were released last Wednesday by the House Oversight Committee, uncovering shocking communication between the convicted predator and Del. Stacey Plaskett (D) of the U.S. Virgin Islands as she prepared to question Michael Cohen, Trump’s ex-lawyer-turned-critic.

Gov. Kathy Hochul thought endorsing Zohran Mamdani would win over his supporters; instead they’re now threatening to oust her if she doesn’t cave to their demands. Oops. If Hochul blocks tax hikes on the rich to fund “universal child care,” warned state Sen. Jabari Brisport at a “Tax the Rich” rally Sunday, “she has to go.” Brisport complains she’s shot down such plans twice before; “If you get a third strike, you’re out,” he threatened, to wild applause. Another tax-the-rich crowd booed Hochul — to her face — when she took the stage at a Mamdani event with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Bernie Sanders a few weeks ago.

[C]ountries such as Jordan and Lebanon had extremely negative experiences with the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and other Palestinian armed groups who were trying to overthrow or destabilize their governments (Black September in Jordan in 1970 and the Lebanese Civil War 1975-1990). Arab leaders often make strong statements, issue condemnations of Israeli actions, and attend high-profile summits that express solidarity with the Palestinians. Their gestures, however -- apart from Iran and Qatar -- are often not matched by decisive steps... The refusal of the Arab countries to absorb Palestinians (including the ex-prisoners) is...

A protest in Mexico City on Saturday resulted in injuries to over 100 police officers and at least 20 arrests. The protests, led largely by young Gen-Zers, were aimed at addressing corruption and safety concerns. The anti-government sentiment has been brewing, and the protest is thought to have been spurred by the recent assassination of Uruapan Mayor Carlos Manzo. Our former Townhall colleague, independent journalist Julio Rosas, was on scene, documenting Saturday's unrest and sharing video to his X feed.

The head of the US Department of Agriculture said the Trump administration is planning to have “everyone” receiving SNAP benefits reapply after a probe into a bulk of Republican-led states allegedly found 186,000 cases of fraud. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins alleged that fraud was running rampant around the embattled Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), claiming “186,000 deceased men and women and children in this country are receiving a check” in 29 red states alone. “Can you imagine when we get our hands on the blue state data what we’re going to find?” she asked on Newsmax’s “Rob Schmitt Tonight.”

If you remember the wonderful Song of the South, Br'er Rabbit begs Br'er Fox not to throw him in the bramble bushes, knowing, which fox doesn’t, that he’s safe there in a place where Br'er Fox will be ensnared. After the disastrous Schumer shutdown (which I predict will add impetus to a remake of the SNAP program and the end of the Obama (Un) Affordable Care Act), the Democrats amped up their nonsense about Trump having engaged in wrongdoing with blackmailer and procurer of underage females , Jeffrey Epstein.
