The death of Jesse Jackson, who got his start lying about holding MLK’s body in his arms, shaking down companies with fake racism accusations to get franchises for his sons, and subsidize his affair and his out-of-wedlock baby, has given a boost to his criminal son. Jesse Jackson Jr, a former Obama campaign co-chair, had been busted and sent to prison for making off with $750,000 in campaign cash and spending over $10,000 on Michael Jackson memorabilia, including $8,500 on two fedoras, not to mention $800 on a mink cashmere cape, is relaunching a campaign for his old House seat in Chicago, while exploiting his father’s death.

It's Chicago, he'll probably have a good shot at it. Since everyone already knows he's a crook, he can start scamming cash right off the bat.

He's never worked an honest day in his life. All government jobs, political campaigns, and assorted non-profit entities which are Democrat front groups.

This is the same son who faked cray-cray to avoid prison. Wait, we're not supposed to remember that.

The Democratic Party’s latest talking point against the SAVE Act is almost performance art in its absurdity. We are now expected to believe that birth certificates are mystical documents, whispered about in legend but never actually seen. They are simply too elusive for modern Americans to locate and too burdensome for a civilized society to require. Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom and socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders, an independent from Vermont, have both recently claimed they do not know where their vital records are, as though those documents vanished into the same void as missing socks. “I don’t have my birth certificate,” Sanders said last week. “God knows how I get it.”

A “toxic chemical” deliberately dumped on the ice rink outside the Trump-Kennedy Center “severely damaged” the surface and forced the cancellation of a performance, furious administration officials said Friday. “Trump-Kennedy Center was targeted today in a malicious act of vandalism,” Roma Daravi, the vice president of public relations for the Washington, DC, venue, wrote on X. “Our outdoor plaza was doused with a toxic chemical and severely damaged,” Daravi continued. “We will not tolerate violence or hate at America’s cultural center. “Authorities are investigating and those responsible will be held accountable.”

Virginia Democrats have planned a statewide referendum with perhaps the most diabolically Orwellian question in the history of modern democracy. “Should the Constitution of Virginia be amended to allow the General Assembly to temporarily adopt new congressional districts to restore fairness in the upcoming elections, while ensuring Virginia’s standard redistricting process resumes for all future redistricting after the 2030 census?” Obviously, relatively disengaged voters will see this question and go, “Restore fairness? Sure, I vote yes.” So let me break down what it actually means. First, newly empowered Virginia Dems redrew the maps for House seats in the most comical fashion. Here’s the old map. And here’s the redrawn map.

Can we deport mayors? Apparently we can. And the more, the better. Police officers who were actually illegal aliens have been caught and prepped for deportation. The campaign manager of a California mayor turned out to be a Chinese spy. And now a Florida ex-mayor is being prepped for denaturalization and deportation after allegations of immigration fraud and bigamy. Exciting times. Federal prosecutors are seeking to revoke the U.S. citizenship of former North Miami Mayor Philippe Bien-Aime, alleging he concealed key facts about his identity and immigration history to obtain naturalization. Prosecutors allege Bien-Aime used the name “Jean Philippe Janvier” when he entered the United States using a fraudulent, “photo-switched” passport.

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D) demanded that President Donald Trump give the people of the state a total of $8.6 billion in refunds after the Supreme Court struck down Trump’s global tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). In a letter addressed to Trump that Pritzker posted to X, Pritzker described Trump’s tariffs as having “wreaked havoc on farmers,” having “enraged our allies,” and increased the cost of groceries. Pritzker explained that he was demanding “a refund of $1,700 for every family” in the state, and that because there were roughly 5,105,448 households in the state, the total came to $8,679,261,600. “Your tariffs wreaked havoc on farmers, enraged our allies,

A US Air Force pharmacist and his husband are accused of stealing over $3 million from the Department of War to fund their lavish lifestyle that included purchasing a BMW, a Porsche and a mansion in Arizona. Staff Sgt. Richard Stefon Ramroop, 35, and Manuel George Madrid, 32, were hit with a 12-count indictment for their alleged scheme to steal from the government between January 2022 and December 2025, the Department of Justice announced Thursday. Ramroop is suspected of using taxpayer funds to purchase thousands of medical devices through his position in the pharmacy at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Tucson, Arizona.

The United States Commission of Fine Arts voted Thursday to approve the final designs of the White House East Wing Modernization project as the Trump administration aims to kick off aboveground construction in April. A final vote was not expected until the Commission of Fine Arts’s (CFA) next meeting in March, but Trump-appointed CFA Chairman Rodney Mims Cook Jr. made the motion to accelerate the federal design review panel’s approval process. "Our sitting president has actually designed a very beautiful structure,” Cook commented before calling for a vote. “The United States just should not be entertaining the world in tents.”

Rep.

The Democrat congresswoman further revealed, “There is a lot of conversation about what the dismantlement of the Department of Homeland Security should look like.”

The latest business to pick up and leave the high-tax, high-regulation, high-crime nightmare of Illinois may be its iconic professional football franchise. The governor of Indiana, Mike Braun, announced Thursday morning that a "framework" had been reached for a final deal that would move the Chicago Bears about 20 miles south from Soldier Field to Hammond, Ind. "Indiana is open for business, and our pro-growth environment continues to attract major opportunities like this partnership with the Chicago Bears," Braun said. "The State of Indiana moves at the speed of business, and we've demonstrated that through our quick coordination between state agencies, local government, and the legislature

Just over a month into Democratic Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger’s term, one of the nation’s largest defense contractors is moving its headquarters out of her state. Boeing announced Wednesday that it will relocate its Defense, Space & Security headquarters to St. Louis, where the division was based from 1997 to 2017. The company previously moved the unit to Chicago and then to Arlington in 2022 during the administration of former Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin. The move represents a significant shift for Boeing, which employs roughly 18,000 people in the St. Louis region. Department of War Secretary Pete Hegseth joined Republican Missouri Gov.

The Democrat party ignored Christians but highlighted Muslim and Chinese traditions in recent social media posts. Breitbart News reviewed the party’s Facebook, Instagram, and X profiles but did not find any references to Ash Wednesday, which was February 18. Instead, the leftist political party highlighted Ramadan, the ninth month of the Islamic calendar in which Muslims participate in fasting, according to Britannica. “We wish a reflective and peaceful Ramadan to all who observe. Ramadan Mubarak!” the Democrat Party wrote on X. In regard to the Lunar New Year, which is celebrated by the Chinese, the party said,

The Department of Defense just made a move that ensures American military dominance for the next 50 years. It’s secured access to a breakthrough semiconductor technology that will power the next generation of American military systems. Fighter jets that outperform anything else in the sky. Missile defense that can track threats twice as far. Electronic warfare capabilities that protect our troops and keep them coming home. And it’s all being manufactured right here in America… with technology no one else can replicate. The technology is gallium nitride. And if you’ve never heard of it, you’re not alone.

As NASA eases its Artemis II rocket back to the hangar for repairs this week – the second launchpad delay this month – it raises the question of whether this government agency should be in the manned spaceflight business at all anymore. To say that the Artemis program – which has so far cost taxpayers more than $93 billion – has been plagued with problems is an understatement. It has been a case study in bureaucratic bumbling, one made more obvious when compared with the rapid advances achieved by private space companies such as SpaceX. Here’s a brief timeline.

By now, we all know that most AI models are, by happenstance or more likely design, purveyors of propaganda. A lot of people rely on AI in the way they have relied on Wikipedia—as a quick and dirty way to access information and get up to speed. More than that, AI is getting baked into everything, which is why so many data centers are being built, and why Big Tech is suddenly less worried about climate change than expanding the power grid as quickly as possible. News is being served to you by AI, and sometimes it is even written by it. It is everywhere, and it's pretty clear

Whatever he’s doing, he’s definitely pretending.

The proposed legislation, also known as the Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility Act, would require people to prove their American citizenship with a U.S. passport or birth certificate to register to vote, and to provide photo ID at the polling station. Endorsed by President Donald Trump, the election integrity bill passed the U.S. House of Representatives last week with the support of just one Democrat, Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX). In the Senate, the act faces a steeper hill to climb due to the 60-vote threshold to bypass the filibuster. Currently, Republicans say they have 50 senators on board while Democrats say they will block the bill.

How do destructive ideas and bouts of collective madness so quickly become policy, law, and the status quo? After all, most have little public support—and are not Western nations supposedly rationally governed? There is usually a multi-step process on the road to these self-destructive fits of society-wide insanity. The suicidal impulse so often begins with left-leaning researchers in elite universities (i.e., the tenured in search of a novel, grant-getting theory). They begin insisting that a new existential threat requires immediate government intervention, novel legislation, ample funding, and public awareness of the impending danger.

I have been following debates over global warming since the 1990s. In the early days, the oil companies defended themselves both by challenging the bad science underlying the global warming theory and by pointing out the benefits of increasing CO2 in the atmosphere. At one time I had a VHS documentary called “The Greening of Planet Earth” on that topic. The benefits of CO2 are indisputable, as anyone who knows anything about photosynthesis–i.e. everyone who went to school before the collapse of recent years–will understand. The Sahara Desert is shrinking, while the rain forests are becoming more lush. That is the theme of this article by a NASA scientist: “Satellite

The Globe/Suffolk survey found that about one-third of Massachusetts voters have seriously considered leaving the state in the past year because of affordability pressures, even as a majority still believe the state is generally moving in the right direction. Inflation, health care costs, housing, taxes, and soaring utility bills topped the list of financial stressors. Boston.com asked their readers how they felt and and even higher percentage said they were looking to move. Here's one response they received:
