Yes, The Riots In France Are Because Of Mass Immigration
Back in the halcyon days of 2011, my wife and I spent a year living in Montpellier, France, on the Mediterranean coast. We had an apartment in the old medieval city center, surrounded by narrow winding cobblestone streets. Our place was on the fifth floor, reachable only by a worn spiral stone staircase. It was a five-minute walk to the city’s main square, a daily farmer’s market, an 18th-century aqueduct, and the oldest medical school in the world still in operation, established in 1220.

Película inspirada en hechos reales llega a plataforma seis meses luego
Es complicado que una película pueda ser emocionante sin caer en sentimentalismo cuando intenta contar una dramática historia real. Los resortes dramáticos típicos causan efecto, pero también empobrecen un poco el cuadro general, no terminando de hacer justicia a la realidad que se está contando.
James Talarico Says He Wants To See Fewer Abortions. But Why?
Original Article Posted By: 4250Luis, 10/17/2026 6:03:08 AM What does Democratic Senate hopeful James Talarico really think about abortion? At a CNN town hall this week in Texas, he confirmed his long-held views that abortion should be legal, that it's not murder, and that "the Bible is silent on the issue of abortion." That's what he said during an exchange with a Catholic voter who challenged him on the abortion issue.

Opposition To Data Centers Isn't What The Tech Right Thinks It Is
Original Article Posted By: FlyRight, 8/28/2026 2:31:30 PM One of the most striking things about the ongoing debate over AI data centers is not just the widespread opposition to them but that the opposition spans political and demographic divisions at a time when Americans from different walks of life and different political persuasions have trouble agreeing on much of anything.

Original Article Posted By: Mercedes44, 8/25/2026 5:55:39 AM If you want to know what a "rigged" election looks like, look no further than the U.S. Senate primary race still underway in Alaska.

The Senate Race In Alaska Is What A Rigged Election Looks Like
If you want to know what a “rigged” election looks like, look no further than the U.S. Senate primary race still underway in Alaska. As of this writing, the Republican incumbent Sen. Dan Sullivan trails Mary Peltola, a Democrat and former member of the House, by about 5 points. Some 30,000 votes are still uncounted, but it won’t change the fundamentals going into the November general election thanks to Alaska’s insane and fraudulent ranked-choice voting regime.

Our Transhumanist, Sci-Fi Future Has Arrived. But You’re Not Going To Like It
It doesn’t take a prophet or a philosopher to see that technological progress isn’t leading us into some futuristic utopia. Quite the opposite: it’s amplifying and instrumentalizing the worst aspects of human nature — for domination, for power, for the indulgence of our appetites, above all for mastery over the created order, including over death itself. The desire for immortality is of course what’s behind the transhumanist movement.
We Are Living Through An Era Of Cultural Destruction
It was difficult to peruse social media last week without seeing a steady stream of reactions and reviews of Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey — a film that had already prompted, weeks before its premiere, mountains of derisive commentary for its purportedly woke casting choices, strangely modern costumes, American accents, and flat color palette. But now that the film is out, reviews have been largely positive.
TPS Has Always Been A Giant Scam
Over the weekend Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin defended the Trump administration’s decision to end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for hundreds of thousands of Haitians living in the U.S. — a decision that was upheld by a Supreme Court decision last week. But in doing so, Mullin also unwittingly exposed what a massive fraud the TPS program is — and why many foreign nationals living in the U.S. under TPS protections should be immediately deported.
Te Kaha review: Christchurch’s new stadium delivers for its city
Source: Radio New Zealand Opinion – Friday night marked the start of a new era for Christchurch. A long 15 years after the city lost its sporting home, the doors of Te Kaha were opened and the Crusaders entered a new chapter. Does the $683 million venue get the pass mark? Ellis Park, Twickenham, the Melbourne Cricket Ground – I’ve been blessed to watch sport at some iconic stadiums around the world. How does New Zealand’s newest indoor venue stack up?
Amazon Didn’t Ban The Camp Of The Saints Because It’s ‘Offensive’ But Because It Resonates
In an act of censorship that liberals would normally decry as fascist and authoritarian, Amazon banned a new edition of The Camp of the Saints by the late French novelist Jean Raspail — and then quietly re-listed the book after online backlash to the company’s attempted censorship. The book, published by a small outfit called Vauban Books, was removed from Amazon’s U.S. site on Monday with almost no explanation. As of this writing, Amazon has not explained why it de-listed the book.
I nearly got cancelled for having the wrong name
February 22 was a normal Sunday night. I had no idea that within 24 hours my phone would resemble a malfunctioning pinball machine and my social media account would be on fire. Monday morning was when the spark was lit, when I learnt that John Davidson, the Scottish Tourette's campaigner, had unfortunately used a racial slur live on TV. My jaw dropped a little when I saw it, as I knew it was bad, but initially I thought little of it. Just another news item.

Only 26 per cent of supermarket own-label products are Scottish
John Davidson Some retailers are clearly committed to Scottish sourcing, writes John Davidson If you've wandered the aisles of a Scottish supermarket lately, you might have noticed more products proudly carrying the Scottish flag. That's no accident. NFU Scotland's ShelfWatch initiative tracks how well retailers are supporting Scottish farmers - and the picture is both encouraging and cautionary.

Nigel Farage Isn’t Serious About Saving Britain
Hardly a week goes by now that we don’t get a cautionary tale coming out of Britain, where the political elite are determined either to destroy the nation’s ethnic majority through the mass importation of third-world migrants, or to pretend that there is no ethnic majority to destroy in the first place. Among the pretenders is none other than Nigel Farage, whose right populist party Reform UK is poised to win an outright parliamentary majority in the next general election.

Turns Out The Irishman Detained By ICE Was Facing Drug Charges Back Home
Original Article Posted By: earlybird, 2/13/2026 2:08:43 PM You might have guessed by now that most of what the national press reports about President Trump's immigration crackdown and ICE detentions is either intentionally misleading, lacking context, incomplete, or outright false.
Eileen Gu Is The Poster Child For The Post-Nationalist Olympics
Part of what has always made the Olympics riveting is the nationalist component embedded in it—countries competing against countries, pitting their best athletes against each other in what often feels like a proxy for war. This was especially true during the Cold War, when the Olympic medal counts of America and the Soviet Union would far outpace all other countries, and athletic prowess was an obvious stand-in for military prowess.

Top Democrats Are Agitating For Insurrection And Political Vigilantism
Original Article Posted By: Hazymac, 1/8/2026 12:14:00 PM Forget January 6. It turns out January 7 might go down as the date when insurrection really arrived in America - not from the MAGA right, but from the anti-Trump left.
Democrats Would Like To Suppress Free Speech The Way Britain Does
Original Article Posted By: J. Arthur Brown, 12/4/2025 7:18:08 PM It's easy to look at a collapsing civil society in a foreign country and comfort ourselves that, despite all our problems, we're not as bad off as those people. Americans are especially apt to do this with our cousin Great Britain, whose country now is in a state of precipitous and probably irreversible decline, and whose political leadership is openly hostile to the native population.
Second-gear Kangaroos wow the locals but whitewash may not save Kevin Walters
In 1982 the Kangaroos came to the UK and made history. They were both the first Australian side to win the Ashes series 3-0 and go through a tour undefeated, winning 22 matches in a row and averaging 45.6 points per game. They dazzled the English public not just with their skill, speed and size, but their pure footballing brilliance. Historians and authors have written that they “changed rugby forever”. They were rugby league gods.
