Iran’s Crown Prince Warns of What’s Coming

President Donald Trump is going full speed ahead with his disastrous Iran deal, and that’s not good news for Americans, Israelis, Iranians, or anyone else. Fox News reported Wednesday that the Trump administration finally disclosed the details, which include “plans for immediate waivers on Iranian oil exports, a framework for at least $300 billion in reconstruction and economic development, and a 60-day negotiation period aimed at securing a final agreement on Iran’s nuclear program.” Trump himself boosted the deal before the press on the same day, with Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick on his right and Secretary of State Marco Rubio on his left.

My two cents...the last time a country was bombed into surrendering was Japan in 1945 when 2 nukes were dropped. We could not do it to Germany in 1942-45, to North Korea 1950-53, to North Vietnam 1965-72, to Iraq in 1991...you can change behavior and bombed to the peace talks...but making them surrender or regime change is tough business. In 1991 Iraq was still in Kuwait after 6 weeks of a serious, serious pounding and then it took 2 US Army Corps and 2 Marine MEFs to get them out of Kuwait. So my guess is 1-2 Army Corps with a Theater Army HQs would be needed to regime change Iran...150,000 to 200,000 troops. You would then have to stay in Iran for a few years also. What would our Allies send as ground forces...ZERO Troops. While we are committing our blood and treasure in Iran....the rest of the world would be looking on and gazing at their collective navels. Just saying.

As long as the IRGC is still in power, with the $300B going back into Iran will fund terrorism around the world; the people of Iran will continue to live in hell; and Iran will eventually build a nuclear bomb. What was Trump thinking, Noble Peace Prize or building another hotel/resort. In my opinion, this was not a very good deal. The U.S. caved is more like it.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune admitted some Senate Republicans hate President Donald Trump too much to support the SAVE America Act, multiple sources familiar with the comments told the Daily Caller. Thune admitted during a closed-door GOP lunch on Wednesday that some Republican senators oppose President Donald Trump so strongly that they will never vote for the SAVE America Act, regardless of the legislation’s merits, according to several sources familiar with the matter. The discussion quickly escalated into a heated exchange between Republican Utah Sen. Mike Lee, the bill’s chief Senate sponsor, and several of his GOP colleagues. Republican Texas Sen. John Cornyn and Thune both challenged Lee’s push

In February 2023, a few months after ChatGPT's public release, the media watchdog NewsGuard announced a new tool for artificial intelligence companies. The company, which rates the credibility of news outlets on a 100-point scale, had been selling its data to advertisers with the goal of steering them away from "unreliable" sources. Now it would license the same data to AI companies in a "machine-readable" format, ideal for training chatbots to avoid "misinformation." NewsGuard—whose cofounder, Steven Brill, suggested in 2020 that the New York Post's Hunter Biden laptop story was a "hoax"—said its ratings could help models "identify trustworthy news and information sources." It encouraged AI companies to use the data

The Ivy League is having a mental health crisis. "Forty-seven percent of surveyed seniors indicated that they experienced mental illness at some point in their time at Harvard, and 13 percent said they were unsure," according to a survey of the Class of 2026 conducted by the Harvard Crimson student newspaper. That’s more than double the rate of the general adult U.S. population, which the federal government’s National Institute of Mental Health estimates at 23.1 percent, noting that "Mental illnesses include many different conditions that vary in degree of severity, ranging from mild to moderate to severe." At Princeton, a senior survey conducted by the Princetonian student newspaper found 60.1 percent

Former President Barack Obama's $850 million presidential library in Chicago has been plunged into a fresh controversy as contractors say they still haven't been paid just days before its grand opening. African American Contractors Association president Omar Shareef said seven workers contacted him to complaint about missed payments, Front Page Mag reports. 'It's to the point that they wished they had never done [the project],' Shareef told the outlet. Some subcontractors are missing as much as seven figures in payment, and many are feeling the pressure of keeping their businesses afloat. The 225-foot tall library dubbed the 'Obamalisk' is also facing backlash from critics who have branded its design 'anti-Christian.' Pastor
America Needs Mass Remigration 7 replies

In the four years before President Trump returned to the White House, the United States of America experienced an unprecedented mass migration. From millions of ‘migrants’ crossing the border to six figures worth of unvetted Afghans being brought here illegally, the invasion wrecked entire cities, cost local communities untold billions and led to crime and violence. There’s only one way to fix it. The mass migration must be met by mass remigration. Beyond the catastrophic four years of mass migration, America has been plagued by decades of open borders, an ongoing population of illegal aliens likely measured in the tens of millions (estimates vary and obstructionism by sanctuary states and cities

By a single vote, the Senate shot down a proposal on Tuesday that would have reined in President Donald Trump’s ability to use military force against Iran without Congress’s approval. The vote fell just one vote short of advancing with 48-47. Republican Senators Susan Collins, Bill Cassidy, Lisa Murkowski, and Rand Paul voted with the Democrats. On the flip side, Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) crossed the aisle to vote alongside the Republican majority against the bill. Introduced by Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-GA), the resolution sought to require congressional approval for continued U.S. military action involving Iran. Warnock had urged Republicans to vote for it, arguing

The plot to attack the UFC Freedom 250 event on the White House South Lawn Sunday night involved at least 12 suspects across the US who adhered to an “accelerationist” ideology and hoped to bring down American capitalism, according to federal law enforcement sources. The FBI foiled their plans by infiltrating a Signal chat group planning the devastating attack — with the parent of one suspect reporting him to local police, sources told The Post. The suspects are charged in at least four states — California, Ohio, Missouri and Nebraska — and intended to kill multiple politicians. The multi-phase plot called for explosive drones to strike the South Lawn

What took them so long? Reports are surfacing that White House aides are suddenly alarmed over the likelihood that top secret conversations on national security were taped and leaked to the New York Times. Axios quotes an administration source as saying that, “We’re afraid some of our most sensitive conversations were being recorded, and we have no idea which ones.” The outlet also writes that, “We hear President Trump is furious about the blow-by-blow accounts.” The president has every right to be furious, but he shouldn’t stop there.

But Tuesday delivered something even better: Vice President JD Vance stepped into the ring himself, and within seconds, he exposed a glaring blind spot in how the left thinks about loving your own country. Tarlov tried to explain away a brutal new NBC News poll on American patriotism by chalking it up to simple political math. "Some of it is obviously partisan," she said, arguing that pride in the country naturally dips "when your party's out of power." "I don't think that's right," Vance said.

Mangione, 28, faces state murder charges in New York in connection with the killing of Thompson, 50, who was shot dead on the streets of New York City in December 2024.

President Trump’s deal with Iran has received a lot of flak from both sides of the spectrum for its supposed shortcomings. Is it a failure before it’s even finalized? No, but that won’t stop the angry backbiting over an agreement that looks like it could significantly weaken Iran’s ability to cause trouble in the Middle East. Let’s be clear: If Trump’s deal leads to a non-nuclear Iran, a freer flow of oil to the global economy, and a more stable Mideast, that will be a net gain for everyone concerned. For the record, no, we’re not entirely satisfied, either. We didn’t want Trump to give an inch to the mullahs.

The U.S. Supreme Court has declined to help a 98-year-old judge facing seemingly unlawful efforts to suspend her from the federal bench. The revelation was disclosed in the high court’s Monday order list, in which the justices rejected a request by Federal Circuit Judge Pauline Newman to take up and hear arguments in her case (Newman v. Moore). There were no noted dissents, and no explanation was given for the decision. As The Federalist recently reported, Newman was first suspended from the bench in 2023 by Federal Circuit Chief Judge Kimberly Moore and the court’s Judicial Council over alleged concerns about her mental and physical health.

I have to hand it to Vice President JD Vance. He ventured into the lion's den, going for an interview on the virulently anti-Trump, liberal enclave of "The View" on Tuesday. You knew it was likely to have some fiery moments.Perhaps surprisingly, Vance was met by a lot of cheers. He joked about how the panel was made up of "MAGA Republicans." Then Vance proceeded to dismantle a variety of the hoaxes/false beliefs that liberals have about President Donald Trump and his administration, starting with the "affordability hoax."

The FBI released an affidavit Tuesday regarding a foiled alleged terror plot on Sunday’s Ultimate Fighting Championship 250 event at the White House, which perpetrators were allegedly planning to attack with explosive-laden drones and snipers. At least five people have been arrested, and agents are working to identify as many as 18 others who appear to be involved in the planning on encrypted chats communicating with the alleged plotters, officials said. The affidavit identified three of the five apprehended suspects, including 19-year-old Tycen Proper, who was arrested in Ohio and charged with attempted murder and several firearms violations after he allegedly admitted to helping plan the attack.
