Walgreens has announced that it is closing a store in the Chatham neighborhood of Chicago. They claim that the store is losing upwards of a million dollars a year to theft, so the reason for the closure is no mystery. They say that this particular store loses more in theft than any other store. And yet… The political leaders in Chicago, who allow thieves to run wild, are angry at Walgreens. They caused this, with their soft on crime policies, yet they are mad at Walgreens for closing the location.

President Trump slammed New York Gov. Kathy Hochul for blaming his administration for the Long Island Rail Road strike. LIRR is the largest commuter rail system in the U.S. Hochul released a formal statement criticizing Trump on Saturday. "Failed New York State Governor Kathy Hochul, a Dumacrat, just blamed ME for her Long Island Railroad STRIKE, when she knows, full well, that I have NOTHING TO DO WITH IT - never even heard about it until this morning. She just blurted out, "It’s President Trump’s fault.' No, Kathy, it’s your fault, and now looking over the facts, you should not have allowed this to happen," Trump wrote on Truth Social.

The Long Island Rail Road strike sparked a firestorm of finger-pointing in the hours after thousands of workers walked off the job in a midnight strike, mangling commutes for countless Long Islanders. Gov. Kathy Hochul found herself under withering criticism when she tried to pin the transit meltdown on the Trump administration within an hour of the strike. “The disruption that Long Islanders face starting tonight is the direct result of reckless actions by the Trump Administration to cut mediation short and push these negotiations toward a strike,” Hochul said in a sentiment mirrored similar ones by MTA boss Janno Lieber —

President Trump gave Tehran another reason to worry Saturday, posting a video clip on his Truth Social showing him ordering a military attack on an Iranian aircraft. “Okay, we have it in our sight. Fire – boom!” Trump says, as a US-flagged destroyer blows one with the Iranian flag out of the sky. In his latest comments on the war, Trump has dismissed Iran’s latest peace offer as “unacceptable,” while speaking freely about the devastation the US military has already inflicted on Iran — and the targets it spared but could reconsider.“We hit them unbelievably hard. Look — we left their bridges.

An Environmental Protection Agency lawyer and union leader has signed a dissent letter opposing President Donald Trump’s policy at the agency and has posted on social media attacking EPA Director Lee Zeldin, but appears to still be employed there. This activity raises questions as to whether she might be a “deep state” actor, working to undermine Trump’s policies from within the administration. Nicole Cantello serves as president of the American Federation of Government Employees Local 704, the EPA’s labor union. A verified LinkedIn profile lists her as an attorney at the EPA.
Despite summit optimism, China still presents

During President Donald Trump's trip to China this week, marked by fanfare and pleasantries, a stark contrast was on display in the United States where the Justice Department charged an American mayor for illegally acting as an agent of the Chinese Communist government. The incongruity between the flowery praise heaped on the American president in Beijing by Chairman Xi Jinping and the shocking tale of a U.S. official doing “the bidding” of a foreign government suggests underlying tensions in the U.S.-China relationship are not going away, despite promises to decrease trade barriers and achieve a peaceful coexistence.

A 19-year-old former member of the Michigan Army National Guard has been charged with planning a horrific mass shooting attack on a major U.S. military facility right here in Michigan, all in the name of ISIS. According to the U.S. Department of Justice, Ammar Abdulmajid-Mohamed Said of Melvindale, Michigan was arrested on May 13, 2025 — the very day he planned to carry out the attack — after launching a drone near the U.S. Army’s Tank-Automotive & Armaments Command (TACOM) facility at the Detroit Arsenal in Warren, Michigan.

Even though this will be his last year as governor due to term limits, Ron DeSantis (R) remains a target of Florida's Democrats due in large part to his effectiveness, the fact that he's unapologetically conservative, and his standing firm on the issues that are important to him and a majority of Floridians. So it was no surprise that amid the marathon session that produced a new congressional map approved by lawmakers on the day of the Louisiana v. Callais SCOTUS ruling, and which DeSantis promptly signed into law, some Democrat state lawmakers staged temper tantrums to protest the map's supposed lack of fairness in representation.

Eric Trump announced plans to sue MS Now and host Jen Psaki Friday for accusing him of being a board member of a company purportedly seeking to do business in China. The former White House press secretary and host of “The Briefing with Jen Psaki” made the statement during a recent show monologue in which she suggested President Trump’s second-born son joined his father on his high-profile China trip to further his own business interests. “Contrary to her monolog[ue] and blatant lies, I have NEVER been on the board of ALT5 — not now, not ever,” Eric Trump wrote on X. “Any person with basic access —

President Trump announced Friday night that US and Nigerian forces killed ISIS’s second in command in a “very complex mission.” “Tonight, at my direction, brave American forces and the Armed Forces of Nigeria flawlessly executed a meticulously planned and very complex mission to eliminate the most active terrorist in the world from the battlefield,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Abu-Bilal al-Minuki, second in command of ISIS globally, thought he could hide in Africa, but little did he know we had sources who kept us informed on what he was doing,” the president continued. “He will no longer terrorize the people of Africa, or help plan operations to target Americans.

Stephen Colbert’s last show is next week, and while millions of Americans will celebrate not having to see his hateful, one-trick-pony show ever again, his fans in the liberal media are very upset. Tonight on CNN, Jake Tapper wove a broad conspiracy as the real reason for Colbert’s cancellation, a conspiracy largely driven by Trump, and not the fact that Colbert’s show has been losing tens of millions of dollars a year for the network that carries it. We think we’ve discovered the reason why Tapper’s ratings are so low. It has to do with being an idiot and a liar.
