Multiple States Begin Ejecting Illegal Immigrants From Subsidized Healthcare

20th May 2026

Read it.

The political left often betrays their true agenda in the legislation they choose to oppose. The SAVE Act, for example, would require proof of citizenship to vote in US elections; a law which the majority of countries around the world enforce. It’s widely supported by around 80% of the public, yet, Democrats stubbornly refuse to pass it.

Why? Because they know there are illegal immigrants voting in their favor, and they know that mail-in ballot fraud exists and often benefits them.

By extension, Democrats aggressively attempted to block Trump Administration efforts to ensure that illegal immigrants could not receive healthcare subsidies. Their argument was that “no illegals actually access those subsidies”. Of course, if this was true, then it should not matter if Trump adds such restrictions – According to Dems, nothing would change.

Pro-Mangione NYC ‘Journalists’ Gloating Over Murder Demonstrate That Assassination Culture Is No Longer Fringe

20th May 2026

Read it.

Sometimes evil isn’t just banal. It’s direct, open, and unrepentant.

That was the case on Monday afternoon as three “credentialed” journalists showed up to cover the Luigi Mangione trial in New York and revealed that they were happy he allegedly shot and killed UnitedHealthCare CEO Brian Thompson.

The self-described “Mangionistas”—and dedicated fans of democratic socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani—were unrepentant in their embrace of assassinations as a reasonable form of political action.

They not only reveled in Thompson’s death, they also took shots at his family too.

“F— Brian Thompson,” said a woman who the New York Daily News identified as Ashley Rojas based on the press credentials dangling from her neck. “That’s all I want to say. F— Brian Thompson. F— his mom.”

Lena Weissbrot, who appeared to be dressed up as a cross between Beetlejuice and Luigi, but the one from the Mario Bros., said that Thompson’s son was better off with his father dead.

“His children are better off without him. They need to learn to not be like their dad. And enjoy the blood money, kids,” she said.

One Month in RN Cities

20th May 2026

Read it.

It has been just over a month since the Rassemblement National (RN) took office for the first time in a whole host of town halls across France. The Left is crying foul and expressing concern at the prospect of sweeping cuts to funding for community organisations and culture. But this is precisely why Jordan Bardella’s party has been entrusted with the reins of so many towns: to put an end to the shameless squandering of public money that has long ceased to benefit French citizens.

Since the last local elections, the towns now under RN administration have become political showcases under close scrutiny. The new RN mayors have swiftly implemented symbolic and concrete measures designed to mark a break with the former ruling parties. For their supporters, these measures respond to a demand for local engagement, a sense of local identity, and firmness in municipal management. For the Left and community organisations, these measures are a cause for concern.

Among the first decisions highlighted in several municipalities led by the RN is the reallocation of municipal grants. According to Valeurs actuelles, several mayors have chosen to scrap or reduce funding for certain associations deemed to be activist or overly politicised. Instead, they claim to want to prioritise local organisations focused on neighbourhood activities, popular traditions, or direct services to the public.

Blunt messaging seems to work for L.A. mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt (whose house burned down too) and it has worked for President Trump.

Labour Plots Death Tax on Homes

20th May 2026

The Telegraph (UK).

Grieving families will be forced to pay Labour’s new “mansion tax” under plans to target inheritances.

The Chancellor announced at her Budget last year that homes worth more than £2m would pay an annual “high value council tax surcharge” of up to £7,500.

In consultation documents published on Tuesday, the Treasury said homeowners on incomes of less than £35,000 would be able to defer the levy until they died or sold their home.

Why Is Almost Everyone Right-Handed? The Answer May Lie in How We Learned to Walk

19th May 2026

Read it.

It is one of the strangest puzzles in human evolution. About 90% of people across every human culture favour their right hand – with no other primate species showing a population-level preference on this scale. Despite decades of research into the brains, genes and development behind handedness, why humans ended up so overwhelmingly right-handed has remained an evolutionary enigma.

Now, new research led by the University of Oxford, published in PLOS Biology, suggests the answer comes down to two defining features of human evolution – walking on two legs, and the dramatic expansion of the human brain.

The study, by Dr Thomas A. Püschel and Rachel M. Hurwitz at Oxford’s School of Anthropology and Museum Ethnography, with Professor Chris Venditti at the University of Reading, brought together data on 2,025 individuals across 41 species of monkeys and apes. Using Bayesian modelling that accounts for evolutionary relationships between species, the team tested the major existing hypotheses for why handedness evolved: including tool use, diet, habitat, body mass, social organisation, brain size and locomotion.

I suspect that the Hokey-Pokey had something to do with it.

The Oddest Couple

19th May 2026

Steve Graham.

It’s hard to figure out what is happening regarding the nation’s response to the tragedy in San Diego. Several Muslims were killed at a mosque by a couple of deranged kids in their teens, and the cops are claiming there is evidence it was related to pro-white racism. The killers showed up in a BMW (dog whistle?), and they had a gas can with an SS sticker on it.

Not sure why anyone would associate the SS with responsible motoring, but kids have always loved stickers.

People don’t seem all that upset. Why? Is it because Americans are fed up with living at the point of Muslim guns every day, always waiting for the next act of Islamist terror?

Islam is the only major religion that actively promotes the murder of outsiders, calling it a means of obtaining eternity in a gross, trashy version of heaven in which men get to cavort, drunk, with pretty boys and virgin girls. It also tells adherents that jihadis who die trying to murder outsiders can then intercede for 70 of their family members. The world is full of Muslim moms who love it when their sons commit atrocities against Jews and Christians, because they hope to make it to paradise based on their sons’ actions.

Islam is the main reason it takes 45 minutes to get to an airline gate on a good day. I remember when it took 5. And it is telling that news stories about the shooting say the Muslims used the mosque to worship “peacefully.”

When was the last time you saw a story about a church shooting that said the intended victims were worshiping “peacefully”? You don’t have to say that about Christians and Jews. It’s assumed. In the case of Muslims, journalists think it merits special mention. Wonder why that is.

Israeli Navy Intercepts Activists Bound for Gaza in International Waters

19th May 2026

Read it.

Israeli forces have intercepted the Global Sumud Flotilla, a fleet of over 50 so-called ‘selfie yachts’ claiming to carry humanitarian aid and hundreds of pro-Palestinian activists.

The interception occurred in broad daylight in international waters, approximately 250 nautical miles off the coast of Cyprus.

According to reports, around 40 vessels were seized and hundreds of activists, engaged in a self-styled attempt to break the maritime blockade of Gaza, were detained, with plans to deport them from the Israeli port of Ashdod.

Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu praised the naval operation for neutralizing a malicious plan, while Israel’s foreign ministry dismissed the mission as a deliberate provocation meant to obstruct U.S. president Donald Trump’s peace plan, claiming the flotilla carried no actual aid.

The raid appears to have angered some of Israel’s international critics. Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdo?an condemned the interception as piracy, and Irish Taoiseach Micheál Martin called it absolutely unacceptable.

Notably, Dr. Margaret Connolly, sister of Ireland’s President Catherine Connolly, is among those detained, further provoking the Irish government, which itself faces widespread allegations of antisemitism.

Flotilla organizers maintain their mission is a legal, non-violent effort to deliver essential food, baby formula, and medical supplies to Gaza’s displaced population, rejecting Israeli assertions that the territory is adequately supplied.

But it was odd was how precise the government was able to relate the pair’s conversations during the mass deletion caper.

Were they bugged?

The answer to that is a hilarious “no.”

Pelosi Backs ‘Mamdani’ of San Francisco for Her Seat

19th May 2026

Read it.

Nancy Pelosi may have served decades in Congress, but her political legacy could also include her recently endorsed candidate to replace her in the House.

The former House Speaker has backed Connie Chan, a San Francisco supervisor, for her seat based on a mix of political, ideological, and strategic reasons.

Pelosi said she sees Chan as aligned with San Francisco Democrat values.

Pelosi said Chan “understands San Francisco — our values, our diversity, our communities.”

Chan has strong labor union support. Pelosi has long been closely tied to organized labor, and Chan has built a coalition with unions and working-class constituencies in San Francisco.

Chan is generally viewed as a progressive Democrat aligned with the labor-left wing of San Francisco politics.

Shooters and Motives Revealed in San Diego Mosque Shooting That Killed Three

19th May 2026

Read it.

The two young alleged gunmen who descended upon a San Diego Islamic facility on Monday — killing three men and themselves — have been identified, along with early indications of their motives. Police sources have told multiple outlets that 17-year-old Cain Clark and 18-year-old Caleb Velasquez — driven by hate — scrawled racist themes on their weapons and carried a gas can emblazoned with a Nazi SS sticker. One of them left a suicide note emphasizing “racial pride.”

Police say that, after leaving the Islamic center, the alleged young murderers fired shots at a landscaper two blocks away, with one of the rounds grazing his helmet. He wasn’t wounded. Soon after, the two were found dead inside a white BMW another block away from the Islamic center, having apparently died of self-inflicted gunshots. Inside the vehicle, investigators found some type of anti-Islamic writing. In addition, the BMW contained a gasoline can that had a Nazi SS sticker on it, and police say unspecified “hate speech” was written on their firearms. They haven’t described the weapons yet.

Hmmmm. “Racial pride”—where have we heard that before?

Air Force Now Has 18 of Its New Skyraider II ‘Swiss Army Knife’ Aircraft, Official Says

19th May 2026

Read it.

The Air Force now has 18 new light attack aircraft that are designed to support special operations forces on the ground, and it expects to receive “a handful more” by October, said Lt. Col. Robert Wilson, of Air Force Special Operations Command, or AFSOC.

The single-engine turboprop OA-1K Skyraider II is “essentially a Swiss Army Knife of airborne capability,” that can fly armed reconnaissance, close air support, and precision strike missions, said Wilson, AFSOC’s armed overwatch requirements branch chief.

The Skyraider is designed to support operations that range from counter-terrorism to “aspects of full-on conflict,” Wilson told reporters on Friday. It is capable of carrying weapons, including Advanced Precision Kill Weapon System, or APKWS, laser-guided rockets, and the plane also has rails and pylons on its wings so it can be equipped with more advanced weapons and sensors in the future.

One weapon that AFSOC officials are looking to possibly arm the Skyraider II with is the Red Wolf cruise missile, Wilson said.

With Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez legalizing what could amount to as many as 1.6 million migrants, other EU member states are getting worried, and not just neighboring France.

While the Socialist prime minister’s announcement originally aimed to naturalize some 500,000 migrants by handing them residency permits and work permits, German authorities estimate that there could be as many as 850,000 applicants in Spain, writes Bild. Leaked internal Spanish police documents have already put this estimated number even higher, at 1.6 million.

Since the announcement in mid-April, hordes of undocumented migrants have been overwhelming local offices across the country, with nearly 130,000 applications in the first week alone. Remix News posted videos of these crowds.

Special Report: Yahoo News — Fake News or Fake Re-Balance?

18th May 2026

Newsbisters.

The Big Four News Apps follow a predictable script: elevate articles from left-leaning outlets, suppress their right-leaning counterparts, while giving prime real estate to some of the most radical news outlets on the left. Yahoo News typically pushes that script even further. In April, the news aggregator appeared to mask that pattern by flooding its platform with BBC content, but the underlying bias quickly resurfaced.

Yahoo News has a record of sidelining not only stories from the right but also center-leaning sources that may offer balance. Its strong preference for the most extreme outlets on the left — Salon, The New Republic and The Daily Beast — has resulted in it being scored by the Media Research Center’s Digital News Tracker as the second-most leftist of the Big Four News Apps over the November 2025 through April 2026 period.

The aggregator dramatically ramped up its publication of BBC stories in April — which is still technically classified by AllSides as centrist — in an apparent bid to offset its extreme left-leaning bias rating. However, this tactic failed to deliver true balance as Yahoo News sacrificed right-leaning stories to elevate the scandal-plagued BBC, even though the British broadcaster has shifted leftward since AllSides’ last evaluation in July 2024.

EU Police Agency ‘Built Hidden Databases’ on Ordinary Citizens

18th May 2026

Read it.

For years, the European Union has presented itself as a global defender of privacy and personal data rights. But a joint investigation by media outlets in the UK, Germany, and Greece claims that Europol, the EU police agency based in The Hague, operated parallel systems for storing and analysing data for years. Those systems allegedly contained huge amounts of personal information, including data on citizens with no criminal record or proven connection to criminal activity.

The issue highlights a growing tension inside the EU itself: the push for stronger preventive security based on mass data collection, alongside repeated promises to protect fundamental rights and personal privacy.

At the centre of the investigation is a system known as the Computer Forensic Network (CFN). Created in 2012, it was designed to process large amounts of digital material linked to criminal investigations. Its original role was relatively limited: storing and filtering information before transferring it into Europol’s official systems.

But the November 2015 terrorist attacks in Paris changed the situation dramatically.

Five Dead, Including Two Suspects, After Shooting at San Diego Mosqu

Two teenage gunman opened fire on Monday at the Islamic Center of San Diego in California, killing three men outside the mosque, one of them a security guard, before the two suspects were found dead, apparently from self-inflicted gunshot wounds, police said.

All of the children who were attending a day school that is part of the mosque complex – the largest in San Diego county – were accounted for and safe after the shooting, which erupted shortly before 12 noon PDT, according to San Diego Police Chief Scott Wahl.

Wahl said the FBI was called in to assist in the investigation of the incident, which the police chief said authorities were treating as a hate crime.

Scores of law enforcement officers called to the Islamic Center encountered the bodies of three men shot dead outside the building, including a security guard who Wahl credited with likely having helped prevent further bloodshed.

A short time later, police discovered the bodies of two teenage males, aged 17 and 19, in a vehicle in the middle of a street, dead from apparently self-inflicted gunshot wounds, the chief said at an afternoon news conference.

New Bill Would Ban Radical Religious Leaders From Entering the United States

18th May 2026

Read it.

Rep. Chip Roy introduced the Inhibiting Militant Adversarial Mullahs (IMAM) Act on Monday, which would bar radicalized leaders of certain religious denominations from being admitted into the United States.

“The United States should never roll out the red carpet for foreign clerics who preach anti-American hatred, celebrate terrorism, or serve as mouthpieces for radical regimes,” the Texas Republican told the Daily Signal in a statement.

If passed, the simple two-page bill would amend Section 101(a)(15)(R) of the immigration code to prevent nonimmigrant religious worker visas for “an alien with the title of Imam, Grand Imam, Shaykha, Mufti, Grand Mufti, Ayatollah or Grand Ayatollah from entering the United States.”

Roy, a co-founder of the congressional Sharia Free America Caucus, introduced the legislation following reports that some Muslim clerics have promoted hostility toward the United States.

‘Backyard Brawl’ Ignites as West Virginia’s Morrisey Moves to Poach Blue State Rival Spanberger’s Jobs

18th May 2026

Read it.

Virginia’s shift toward higher taxes and new regulations is triggering an interstate economic “brawl,” as West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey moves to lure businesses and workers across the border.

Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger has promoted an “affordability agenda,” but a wave of proposed tax increases and regulatory changes from legislative Democrats has opened an opportunity for neighboring states to compete for businesses and residents.

Even though some of these proposals never made it to Spanberger’s desk or claimed her signature, the political climate has prompted West Virginia officials to actively target Virginia’s workforce and employers, pitching lower taxes and fewer regulations as a competitive alternative.

Speaking to Fox News Digital, Morrisey said he plans to take that pitch directly into Virginia communities, including Loudoun County, to draw businesses and workers into West Virginia.

Study Examines Whether Advanced Degrees Are Worth Costs

18th May 2026

Read it.

The Left believes there is a contrived war on higher education. However, recent analysis counters that claim by showing that there is an economic disadvantage for many Americans taking on the cost of an advanced degree. The analysis has now landed firmly on the conclusion that much advanced education is a rigged game.

This is not news to my family. In 2008, our son attended the University of Kansas. He wanted to pursue a career in sports administration and had obtained a position at the university working for legendary athletic director Lew Perkins.

As Sam considered his next step, we researched master’s degrees in sports administration. There were about 150 programs in the discipline across the country with about half offering master’s degrees. Because of the multitude of programs, I had already concluded that getting any degree in the specialty would at best guarantee the degree holder a job at a Foot Locker store.

We asked Lew about the degree’s value. He said, “If you want to work for me, get an MBA.” Here was a top-level person in the business telling us those degrees were worthless.

That analysis is not just true of sports administration but applies across the spectrum of degrees.

Cars Are Fast Becoming Dystopian Prison Pods…

18th May 2026

Read it.

The surveillance state has found its newest frontier: your car’s dashboard. What used to be a symbol of American freedom and independence is rapidly morphing into a high-tech cage that watches your every move and can override your decisions at will.

In a widely shared post on X, users detailed complaints pouring in about Subaru’s upgraded AI ‘EyeSight’ system now featured on the latest models.

Drivers report the system pouncing on brief glances away from the road – while Biden-era federal mandates prepare to make this level of surveillance mandatory in every new vehicle by 2027.

“Biden” and “fascism” seem made for each other.

“Christian Bastards”: Is the Modena Attacker More Than Just a Mentally Ill Man?

18th May 2026

Read it.

Italy’s government has warned against dismissing the Modena car-ramming attack as merely the act of a disturbed individual, as the case reignites fierce political debate over immigration, integration, and public security.

Eight people were injured on Saturday after a driver at high speed ploughed his car into pedestrians and cyclists in the centre of the northern Italian city of Modena. Four victims remain in serious condition, including a woman who had to have both of her legs amputated.

The suspect, 31-year-old Salim El Koudri, an Italian citizen of Moroccan origin born in Bergamo, attempted to flee the scene before stabbing a passer-by who tried to stop him. He was eventually overpowered by members of the public and arrested.

You don’t need a conspiracy if everybody knows what they’re supposed to do.

The Great EU Migration Illusion: ‘Victory’ at the Border While Millions Pour in Legally

18th May 2026

Read it.

Illegal immigration detected at the European Union’s external borders fell by 40% between January and April 2026. On the West African route, which connects with the Canary Islands, the decline reached 78%.

On paper, the figure appears to point to a significant shift after years of growing migratory pressure, but Frontex data only measures irregular crossings detected at specific border points. It does not measure the total immigration to Europe.

The distinction is more important than it may seem. Frontex counts interceptions or detected crossings. The agency itself notes that the same person may appear multiple times in different records and that the figures only concern external borders and specific routes. The decline therefore indicates that fewer entries are being detected on those corridors, not that Europe is receiving fewer foreign arrivals overall.

Actually, Democracy Dies in H.R.

18th May 2026

The New York Times, Paper of Record of the Crust.

Even the most capable autocrats cannot rule alone.
In Russia, Vladimir V. Putin needs his circle of handpicked oligarchs; in Iran, the Revolutionary Guards and its allies in the business world protect the regime’s power; Viktor Orban transformed Hungary into an “elected autocracy” with the help of a few crucial judges, political enforcers and friendly tycoons. But to actually carry out the dirty work of consolidating and maintaining power, such leaders rely on help from a far greater number of lower- and midlevel people: military officers, secret police and bureaucrats.
Yet until recently, researchers paid little attention to how leaders convince and recruit ground-level workers to go along with their demands. The incentives for elites to stay loyal have been studied extensively, but the rank and file have remained something of a black box. In the absence of real data, researchers have tended to assume that they cooperate because of ideological extremism, fear of persecution or some combination of the two.
New research, drawing on an extraordinary data set from Argentina’s Dirty War in the 1970s and ’80s, suggests a very different explanation. It turns out that the kinds of career pressures familiar to employees everywhere — the desire to revive a stalled career or obtain a minor promotion — can be enough to incentivize lower- and midlevel officials to violate professional obligations, fundamental norms and even basic morality. The people who make those decisions, the research suggests, are neither extremists nor victims. They are often just middling workers looking for a way to get ahead.

US Charges Iraqi Man With Organizing Synagogue Attacks in Europe and NYC on Behalf of Iran

18th May 2026

Jewish Telegraphic Agency.

An Iraqi man who was recently arrested in Turkey has been charged with plotting an array of attacks against Jewish targets, including on a synagogue in New York City, in response to the U.S.-Israel war with Iran.

A criminal complaint that was unsealed on Friday claims that Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood al-Saadi, 32, is a commander in the Iraq-based Kataib Hezbollah that functions as a proxy for Iran. The complaint was unsealed when al-Saadi appeared in federal court in Manhattan.

The complaint alleges that al-Saadi is responsible in part for organizing the attacks in Europe that have been claimed by a new group, Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamiya. It marks the first major disclosure of intelligence information tying the group directly to the Quds Force, the overseas arm of the Iranian regime’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, and includes multiple photographs of al-Saadi meeting in person with IRGC leaders.

Attacks that al-Saadi organized include 18 in Europe that Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamiya publicly claimed, as well as the stabbing of two Jews in London last month, the complaint alleges. He also organized multiple attacks in Canada that were carried out and plotted others that did not take place, the complaint alleged.
