As RedState reported on Tuesday, the U.S. Supreme Court refused to issue a stay on a lower court ruling that blocked President Donald Trump from deploying National Guard troops in Illinois. RedState further reported that Justice Samuel Alito issued a blistering dissent, essentially saying that the courts were hindering the Trump administration from protecting federal officers.Of course, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker took a victory lap anyway:As Joe Cunningham explained, Pritzker may have worn himself out unnecessarily because SCOTUS has not rendered the final ruling on this.

President Trump announced Thursday that the US military hit ISIS terrorists in Nigeria targeting Christians with “numerous” deadly airstrikes. “Tonight, at my direction as Commander in Chief, the United States launched a powerful and deadly strike against ISIS Terrorist Scum in Northwest Nigeria, who have been targeting and viciously killing, primarily, innocent Christians, at levels not seen for many years, and even Centuries!” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “I have previously warned these Terrorists that if they did not stop the slaughtering of Christians, there would be hell to pay, and tonight, there was,” the president continued.

To its haters, Israel is a pariah on the verge of expulsion from the world community, after it had the nerve to defend itself from Hamas. Yet a series of recent meetings and trade deals proves the Jewish state is firmly integrated in the regional and world economy — and not going anywhere soon. Last week’s announcement that Israel had finalized its plan to sell $37 billion of natural gas to Egypt is just one example, and a win-win for both parties, as well as for regional stability.Though Egypt downplayed the diplomatic significance of the deal, it’s obvious the relationship between the two countries is more than an anachronistic holdover -

Former first son Hunter Biden is blaming the “really distasteful” “hypocrites” who worked for then-President Barack Obama for setting in motion his most controversial foreign business dealings during his father Joe Biden’s eight-year vice presidency. Hunter, now 55, blamed Obama’s staff for forcing him to start back at “square one” because they were concerned about conflicts of interest in his domestic lobbying work, using a new 5 ½-hour podcast with “The Shawn Ryan Show” to blast former associates and powerful Democrats. “Obama picked him to be vice president. And in so doing, he had a group of people that I find to be really distasteful and hypocrites,

The state of California, under the direction of woke Gov. Gavin Newsom, state Attorney General Rob Bonta, and the far-left legislature, passed a law in July 2024 — AB 1955 — which required teachers to affirm students’ gender identities but keep any changes secret from the parents. In other words, they demanded that teachers lie. Bad news for the gender extremists in the Golden State, of which there are many — U.S. District Court Judge Roger Benitez issued a summary judgment Monday, ruling that the law is unconstitutional. Finally, a 2024 story where a judge didn’t bend over backward for the Democrat Party and the progressives. Boom:

A few days ago, the Federalist reported that Fulton County, Georgia, had over 300,000 illegal early-vote ballots during the 2020 election. The votes were illegal because they were unsupported by poll worker signatures (contrary to Georgia law). In other words, the vote totals were miraculously born without a mother or father. Independent analysts have known of this evidence for years. Indeed, a reference to the phony 2020 votes is included on page 108 of my book (Debunked?), which was published three years ago: “All but two of the early vote tabulator closing tapes for 350,000 votes were unsigned. Thus, there was no chain of custody for those files.”

The assaults resulted in the beheading of 30 Christians, widespread arson, and the destruction of at least five churches and 100 homes. Many other Christians — including women and their daughters — were herded away. — Daily Express, Ocotber 8 2025, Mozambique. [S]ince Boko Haram's terrorist insurgency began in 2009, jihadist groups have torched and destroyed 19,100 churches, averaging nearly 100 each month. In that time, 125,009 Christians were slaughtered, as well as "60,000 Liberal Muslims... unless urgent action is taken, within the next 50 years Christianity in Nigeria is set to disappear." — International Society for Civil Liberties and the Rule of Law, August 10, 2o25, Nigeria.

While the world salivates over the just-released images of Bill Clinton “frolicking” with various females at Jeffrey Epstein’s Bide-a-Wile island hideaway, the steady drumbeat of anti-Trump propaganda is picking up speed, intensity, and insanity. Last month, in an effort to “Bidenize” (thank you, Byron York), The New York Anti-Trump Times published a surreal, reality-free article under the headline “Shorter Days, Signs of Fatigue: Trump Faces Realities of Aging in Office.” This is about the human whirlwind that is Donald Trump, the indefatigable powerhouse who thinks nothing of traveling across the globe in the morning in order to broker peace in some far-off hellhole -

A Georgia State Election Board investigation substantiated that Fulton County violated election rules in 2020 by failing to have poll workers sign required tabulation tapes for early votes in 36 out of 37 advanced voting precincts, affecting approximately 315,000 ballots. These unsigned tapes broke the chain-of-custody and certification requirements under Georgia law, which mandates signed tapes as the sole legal proof of authentic vote totals. During a board meeting on December 9th, Ann Brumbaugh, attorney for the Fulton County Board of Registration and Elections, contends that Fulton County does “not dispute that the tapes were not signed.” Oof.

To tax tips or not? That is a question that will confront lawmakers in states across the U.S. as they convene for work next year. President Donald Trump’s administration is urging states to follow its lead by enacting a slew of new tax breaks for individuals and businesses, including deductions for tips and overtime wages, automobile loans and business equipment. In some states, the new federal tax breaks will automatically apply to state income taxes unless legislatures opt out. But in many other states, where tax laws are written differently, the new tax breaks won’t appear on state tax forms unless legislatures opt in.

After the European Commission levied a several-hundred-million-dollar fine on Elon Musk and his social media platform X earlier this month, journalist Michael Shellenberger wrote a damning post in which he excoriated Europe’s rank censorship and state-sponsored propaganda. He accused the commission of engaging “in a deception campaign aimed at confusing” Europeans and Americans into thinking that European elites’ “goal” is anything other than “to censor the American people.” Shellenberger pointed out that Musk’s fine came while European governments are demanding backdoor access to all private text messages (under the pretense of combatting the transmission of child pornography) and creating a so-called “Democracy Shield”

Back during the Biden administration, the FBI appeared to be solely focused on rounding up conservatives. At the same time, all kinds of other crimes in their mandate -- spies, terrorism, blue-city corruption -- showed little evidence of activity or results. Obviously, that allowed the crazies on the left to grow in number and get bolder in their plans, but the results seen now suggest some impressive corrective work. It looks like the FBI -- and the many law enforcement agencies that helped them -- is back.
