Within Germany the Rhineland-Palatinate regional parliament election was held yesterday. The region is the heart of the German industrial sector and home to the massively important auto-manufacturing sector(map).Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s conservative party the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) won the biggest portion of the election, defeating the Social Democratic Party (SPD) who lost ground in the western area bordering France. However, the biggest electoral gains were for the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, with gains that more than doubled its previous vote share.

The Supreme Court ‘s conservative majority on Monday sounded skeptical of state laws that allow the counting of late-arriving mail ballots, a persistent target of President Donald Trump. The court heard arguments in a case from Mississippi that also could affect voters in 13 other states and the District of Columbia, which have grace periods for ballots cast by mail. An additional 15 states that have more forgiving deadlines for ballots from military and overseas voters also could be impacted. A ruling is expected by late June, early enough to govern the counting of ballots in the 2026 midterm congressional elections.

This is one heck of an explosive viral story. It starts with claims about low-IQ Africans and just takes off from there. It all started when an Africa-based research team decided to challenge and prove wrong a very long-standing claim in Western circles about low IQ levels in African countries. Instead of continuing to argue about it, they decided to put these claims to the test. They conducted a large-scale IQ assessment in Lagos, Nigeria, with a mixed bag of participants over the age of 16.The results were not what they wanted and are what’s going viral. As it turns out, those “Western circles” were right all along.

US President Donald Trump issued a warning on Saturday that if Iran does not fully reopen the Strait of Hormuz “without threat” within 48 hours, Washington will “hit and obliterate” the country’s power plants, starting with the largest. Trump demanded Tehran restore safe passage through the vital oil waterway in a post on Truth Social.

Sen. Lisa Murkowski, maybe the best Republican the Democrats have ever had, doesn’t want to waste her time with such inconsequential things as election integrity, particularly making sure noncitizens don’t vote in U.S. elections. So what’s important to the Alaska RINO? Why, “Native Hawaiian women,” of course. That’s the resolution Murkowski proudly lobbied for in the Senate this week as she works with Democrats to kill the SAVE America Act. Senate Resolution 650, which recognizes “the heritage, culture, and contributions of American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian women in the United States.”

Democrats have refused to fund the Dept of Homeland Security which means the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officials are working at reduced capacity. This is slowing down security times at airports and creating massive delays for U.S. air travelers. The problem has been worsening day-by-day for well over a week. President Trump announced today that if Democrats don’t fund DHS/TSA, he will move Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers into TSA positions with the benefit of creating an illegal alien catch net.

Let me start by saying there is a lot of misleading information circling current events, some of it by what CTH considers very dubious alt-right voices. I suggest just to be leery of “exclusive” insider information. There are motives and angles that are not obvious and would not be comfortable for those who follow events closely. [As an example, the election/voting information -connected to the Intelligence Community- and recently outlined by John Solomon, is not new. What Solomon is rehashing is the background information exposed by Catherine Engelbrecht and True the Vote surrounding Chinese involvement in prior elections(snip) Engelbrecht gave the FBI the data, the FBI

In the next few days, much more about the overall investigative review underway in Florida will begin to surface. The review has been led by USAO Jason A. Reding Quiñones, a federal prosecutor for the Southern District of Florida. As with all investigations containing multiple players and actors, the first investigative information is extracted from testimony by those furthest away from the principals, yet closest to the granular details of the events being reviewed. The questioning then goes upstream, using information collected to assembly more specific questions as the principal players are approached.*snip)FLORIDA – Former FBI Director James Comey has been subpoenaed

On Friday, Ali Larijani walked confidently at a rally of regime loyalists in central Tehran, his first public appearance during a war in which he was a known assassination target. “Brave people, brave officials, brave leaders. This combination cannot be defeated,” the senior Iranian official wrote on X. Four days later, he was dead Early Tuesday, Israeli intelligence located Larijani, along with other regime figures, at a hideout on the outskirts of Tehran and killed him in an airstrike. That same night, the commander of the Basij — a pro-regime volunteer militia — Gholamreza Soleimani, was also killed. Iranian civilians reported to Israel that he was hiding (snip) and

An audio clip of a conversation between Israel’s intelligence agency, Mossad and top Iranian generals is now going viral. The recording, believed to be a chilling warning issued after the launch of Israel’s Operation Rising Lion on June 13, suggests that the generals were told to flee before the deadly strike. The tone was cold, the message crystal clear: “You’re on our list right now.” One of at least 20 such calls placed to high-ranking Iranian officials was recorded and obtained by The Washington Post. The audio captures an Israeli intelligence operative, likely from Mossad, telling a senior Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) general,

A key Senate committee voted 8-7 on Thursday to advance President Donald Trump’s nominee to be the next secretary of the Department of Homeland SecurityThe vote in the Senate Homeland Security Committee sends Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., to the full Senate for consideration one day after a contentious confirmation hearing. The committee is divided between eight Republicans and seven Democrats. Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., who chairs the committee, voted against Mullin after taking him to task for “anger issues” at his hearing one day earlier.

Cali Dems thought they had everything all figured out. They had a plan, and it was working like a finely oiled machine. Until it suddenly wasn’t. Years ago, Dems rolled out the “top-two” primary system with one assumption baked in for good measure: no matter what happens, two Democrats would likely always make it to the general election. It was supposed to lock in control, sideline Republicans, and keep everything nice and predictable. And for a while, sure, it worked. But these kinds of machines only work if your side stays disciplined. You need a clear front-runner, maybe two, and everyone else falls in line. But that’s not what’s happening now.
