This story out of the Netherlands is the best example of "toxic empathy" that is poisoning the West. Stek Oost, in Amsterdam, was sold as the "solution" to both the housing and refugee crises in the country. A plan would have 125 Dutch students and 125 migrants living in the same building to "aid integration." What happened next was predictable by everyone except the authorities who green-lit this experiment. But students living there told Dutch investigative documentary programme Zembla they faced multiple sexual assaults, harassment, violence, stalking and even claimed a gang rape had taken place.

The Republican National Committee Chair Joe Gruters argued on 77 WABC radio’s the “Cats Roundtable" that the Democrats' shift further to the left is a signal that Republicans will be able to "defy history" and maintain control of Congress following the 2026 midterm elections. He said the election of figures like New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and other so-called rogue radicals indicates that the Democratic Party is willing to embrace extremism. As many conservative commentators have voiced, the election most likely to implement common-sense policies aligned with its party platform is the one the American people will choose to grant political power.

Pennsylvania is hemorrhaging residents and resources. And it’s been happening for years. The recent U-Haul Growth Index shows that people are voting with their feet against Pennsylvania and other purple and blue states that have become inhospitable as places to live, work, and raise a family. And these out-migrators are heading to redder states that welcome them. In 2025, Texas, Florida, North Carolina, and Tennessee topped U-Haul’s ‘in-migration’ states, measured by one-way customer moves. Meanwhile, Pennsylvania ranked an abysmal 44th. The impact of losing friends and families—and their wealth—to other states should be the canary in the coal mine for Pennsylvanians getting ready for another election year in 2026.

He is the one tossing concepts on the whiteboard, storyboarding strong possibilities, and forcing the political system to grapple with problems it has ignored for decades. He understands something most career politicians never grasp: not every idea survives first contact with reality. But no progress happens without someone willing to propose ideas in the first place. That is why the latest round of criticism of Trump’s proposal to cap credit card interest rates misses the point entirely. Much of the conservative movement has bristled at the idea, and the concerns are serious.

It was probably no surprise that Rep. Ilhan Omar, arguably the most corrupt of Minneapolis’ Somali community, announced the Congressional Progressive Caucus has “adopted an official position” to defund Immigration & Customs Enforcement. “Our caucus members will oppose all funding for immigration enforcement in any immigration enforcement bills until meaningful reforms are enacted to end militarized policing practices,” said the woman accused of marrying her brother to evade U.S. immigration laws. Omar’s message was praised by radical groups everywhere, many tied to the left’s “defund the police” movement amid 2020’s Black Lives Matter riots.

In this episode of "Try to Control Your Shock and Amazement"... As we've known for years, America's powerful teachers' unions have demonstrated that they're far more interested in promoting and shilling for left-wing causes than providing quality education to America's kids. In a glaring recent example, as RedState's Becky Noble reported in mid-December, the National Education Association (NEA) — the nation's largest teachers' union — hosted a typical teachers' union conference. The topic? "Advancing LGBTQ+ Justice." Shocked? Me neither. So, yeah, raise your hand if you think the conference spent even a modicum of time focused on improving the quality of education in America — vs. ranting about insane left-wing idiocy.

The Government’s illogical energy policies… Jess Phillips’s illogical approach to safeguarding…the illogical selling off buying off of the Chagos Islands… It seems to any half-thinking person that the Government is behaving in a way that is completely illogical if it is concerned about its own or the country’s success. However, the unrolling of all of the above policies are not the result of illogical, messy or on-the-hoof thinking. Quite the opposite: the actions of this Labour Government are the result of clear, exact and rigid logic.

A leading proponent of face masks as a means of countering the spread of respiratory infections appears to have changed her mind. Professor Trish Greenhalgh, University of Oxford – described as the “high priestess” of the face mask movement, who even appeared on her X feed wearing two face masks during the COVID-19 years – has endorsed a letter to the WHO in which it is claimed, as reported in the Guardian, “There is ‘no rational justification remaining for prioritising or using’ the surgical masks that are ubiquitous in hospitals and clinics globally, given their ‘inadequate protection against airborne pathogens’.”

“There are decades where nothing happens, and there are weeks where decades happen.” That’s a quote often attributed (perhaps incorrectly) to Vladimir Lenin — but whoever said it first, it’s certainly true of the last week or so. Just look at the headlines. In Iran, the mullahs who have ruled since 1979 are collapsing in the face of widespread popular revolt. For nearly all of the 47 years since Jimmy Carter allowed Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini to take power in the fallacious belief that it would somehow advance the cause of human rights, Iran has been a major rival to the United States in the region and around the world.

President Trump on Tuesday threatened to take “very strong action” against the Iranian regime if anti-government protesters are executed. “I haven’t heard about the hanging. If they hang ’em, you’re gonna see some things that – I don’t know what you’re – where you come from and what your thought process is, but you’ll perhaps be very happy,” Trump told “CBS Evening News” anchor Tony Dokoupil during an interview in Detroit. When Dokoupil asked the president to clarify what he meant, Trump responded: “If they do such a thing, we will take very strong action.” More than 2,000 Iranians have been killed amid the regime’s brutal crackdown on protesters,

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is forgoing a promised court-martialing and taking a behind-closed-doors track to attempt to punish Sen. Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.). The administrative move — which seeks to reduce Kelly’s retirement rank and military pension — is the latest in the bitter back-and-forth between the Trump administration and the retired Navy captain after he joined five other Democratic lawmakers in a November video reminding service members that they were obligated to refuse illegal orders.While Hegseth is taking Kelly into uncharted legal waters, using an action typically meant to scrutinize service members’ active-duty conduct,

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer dropped a bombshell this week, suggesting that far-left Rep. Ilhan Omar sits “at the top of the suspect list” in the sprawling Minnesota fraud scandals involving taxpayer-funded daycare and healthcare programs. The comments came during a pointed exchange with journalist Alison Steinberg, who raised serious concerns about whether members of Congress themselves may have benefited from money funneled through political action committees tied to fraudulent daycare and healthcare schemes.
