Akhror Saidakhmetov was arrested at Kennedy Airport, where he was attempting […]

It isn’t the fossil-fuel companies that are polluting science. It’s all politics… and your tax dollars are funding it.

Cites “difficulties” in predicting “specific climate impact” The White House has instructed federal agencies not to include changes to the climate in their reports on climate change.

The Senate majority leader Turtle-Boy… I mean Mitch McConnel is making his move to try and prevent a shutdown. With the Homeland Security Department set to shut down on Saturday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on Tuesday offered Senate Democrats everything they wanted.

Florida police are using Stingray tracking devices—powerful surveillance tools cloaked in secrecy, capable of hoovering data from the phones of anyone in a wide search area—to catch thousands of suspects, even in low-level crimes like 911 hangups. Documents published by the ACLU this week show how widespread Stingray use is in Florida among local law enforcement. Ars Technica’s Cyrus Farivar […]

Islamic State [terrorists] have abducted as many as 90 Assyrian Christians after overrunning several small villages in northeast Syria, an activist group said Tuesday. Around dawn Monday, the [Muslim jihadists] swept through the Assyrian villages nestled along the banks of the Khabur River near the town of Tal Tamr in Hassakeh province. Sky News reported that control of the region […]

You’ve heard it said that the science is settled. And it’s true. It is settled–settled beyond the possibility of any dispute. A fundamental, inescapable, indubitable bedrock scientific principle is that lousy theories make lousy predictions. Climate forecasts are lousy, therefore it is settled science that they must necessarily be based on lousy theories. And lousy theories should not be trusted. Put it this way. Climate […]

David Barton counters notion religious beliefs have nothing to do with terror The Obama administration began last week with the assertion that the root cause for ISIS’ barbaric behavior was “its lack of opportunity for jobs.” President Obama ended the week claiming that ISIS’ allure for young people is that they “feel entirely trapped in impoverished communities … where there […]

The latest disturbing video from ISIS shows what the [Islamic terrorist] group touts as the next generation of jihadist killers, pint-sized terror trainees who appear to be as young as 5 participating in drills and reciting verses from the Koran. The 9-minute video released Monday shows about 70 camouflage-clad kids, who are reportedly the children of foreign fighters who have […]

An annual Gallup survey that asks voters whether they sympathize more with Israel or the [so-called] ‘Palestinians’ shows that most Democrats don’t sympathize with Israel. As that graph of the trend by party shows, that summary masks some nuance. That 48 percent of Democrats is actually up significantly since the mid-1990s — as is the figure for Republicans. Over the […]

The Muslim Arabs in Israel have been getting free electricity for so many years (along with free water, gas, food, medicine, and education). If I don’t pay my electric bill, they shut mine off right away. Muslims in Israel get extra special treatment that Jews never get. Israel’s state-owned electric company briefly cut power to two [Muslim Arab] cities in […]

I’m still unsure how infecting innocent civilians’ hard drives with a virus is lawful seeing how they put many hackers in prison for exactly the same thing. (Reuters) – The head of the National Security Agency refused to comment on Monday on reports that the U.S. government implants spyware on computer hard drives for surveillance purposes, saying “we fully comply […]

Children from Egypt’s El-Mahalla El-Kubra, a city north of Cairo in the Nile Delta, were recently recorded “slaughtering” other children in the style of ISIS’ notorious execution videos. Click here to see the video. The video may have been made after ISIS’ offshoot in Libya beheaded 21 Coptic Christian workers from Egypt who were captured more than a month ago. On February 15, the terrorists posted a gruesome […]

Last year I noted a couple of times that newspapers in the Arab world would have occasional articles describing the negative qualities of the Jews described in the Quran. (Often the articles are illustrated with this picture.) One of those articles has been published this past weekend in newspapers in Egypt and Morocco. This is a recurring theme. In Arabic […]

“We all saw what happened on the Texas border last summer, but we need to understand that the problem is not going away,” Texas Gov. Greg Abbott told CBS’s “Face the Nation” with Bob Schieffer on Sunday. “Already this calendar year, since January 1, we have had more than 20,000 people come across the border, apprehended, unauthorized. And so we […]

The Obama administration is seeking to block a federal judge’s ruling last week that halted programs intended to grant deportation waivers to up to 5 million immigrants living in the U.S. illegally.

Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz, meanwhile, met separately with Ali Akbar Salehi, the head of Iran’s nuclear program, on technical details before joining the broader […]

Instead of fighting anti-Semitism, the European Union finds allies to enhance it. We have seen rather interesting developments in Western Europe over the previous few months. When Jews were murdered buying Sabbath food, the French, after acknowledging, contrary to the UN resolutions, non secure borders for Israel in the Security Council,  finally came out with the following statement: “If 100,000 Jews leave, […]

The weekend’s feel-good story about a Muslim “ring of peace” formed to “protect” Jews at an Oslo synagogue turned out to be a complete fabrication by the media, according to an eyewitness report, local officials, and attendees’ photos. Before reading the article below, it must be noted that even the few Muslims who showed up for this hoax are actually involved […]

An Obama administration plan to allow Syrian refuges into the United States is raising concerns within the intelligence community and on Capitol Hill — with one GOP House leader calling it a “federally sanctioned welcome party” to potential terrorists.

The video purportedly shows 6 minutes of […]

With all of the new bad news coming out this week from ObamaCare, here’s another horror story about the Healthcare.gov exchange from Utah that exemplifies the incompetence of government bureaucracy. One basic and nearly ubuquitous feature of health care — and indeed of family life — is the birth of children. Health insurance plans have made it simple to add […]

Could you imagine if the tables were turned and they were saying this to blacks? Minorities get free scholarships, tax breaks in business, and thanks to affirmative action get jobs simply because of their skin color. Sounds like privileges to me. Students attending elite private schools in New York are participating in workshops that encourage them to “face their white […]

A 37-year-old gay mom is set to spark controversy after she said she’d be disappointed if her daughter grew up straight.

From Ma’an: A Hamas spokesman on Saturday slammed what he described as a campaign of “incitement and deception” by a number of Egyptian journalists against the [so-called] “Palestinian” people in the Gaza Strip.

Misleading statistics have never kept the New York Times from reporting a non-existent problem before and they certainly could not be slowed when coming to the problem of concealed carry permit holders running around killing folks. The article starts out with an Obama-esq “there should be no disputing” line when referencing the highly misleading statistics the entire questionably-written piece is based […]

When Obama first got elected in 2008 he said “We are just a few days away from fundamentally transforming America.”If you love something or someone you don’t set out to “fundamentally transform” them.  So don’t go saying he never said that Kirsten Powers like you did on Sean Hannity’s show the other night. Former mayor Rudy Guiliani made the incredibly […]

[AP] – Security personnel have regained control of a South Texas prison where inmates had set fires and caused significant damage after taking over part of the facility.

Issa Arnita, […]

Another day, another attack on the integrity of the Harvard-Smithsonian astrophysicist Dr. Willie Soon, this time in the New York [Nazi] Times. I first became aware of Soon in 2009 when reading through the Climategate emails. One of them was a jocular suggestion by a warmist called Tom Wigley as to how best to smear Soon and his co-author Sallie […]

A federal judge appointed by President Obama has blocked detainment of Central American women and children on the U.S.-Mexico border who allege they are seeking asylum.

A legal case over a public school in California that has students “bowing to the sun god” is looming in an appeals court, where a team of lawyers advocating for student and parental rights is challenging the Encinitas Union School District’s Ashtanga yoga program. It has broad implications, and it’s getting attention not just in the United States but worldwide. […]

About 800,000 people received tax forms with incorrect information about their Obamacare coverage, officials from the Health and Human Services Department said Friday. The errors occurred on a new form that helps Obamacare enrollees figure out whether they qualify for a subsidy that would pay all or part of their premiums, and how big that subsidy should be. Information used […]

A series of photos have emerged claiming to show dismembered bodies in Mexico. The photos paint a grim picture of the raging war taking place just south of the Texas border. The war that reignited this month has pitted two rival factions of the Gulf cartel against each other turning the cities of Matamoros and Reynosa into war zones where […]

The Obama administration has been roundly mocked after State Department Spokeswoman Marie Harf said “we cannot kill our way out of this war,” and that the “medium to longer term” strategy for fighting ISIS is to get at its “root causes that leads people to join these groups,” one of which she said is a “lack of opportunity for jobs.” […]

This is the same type of illegal hacking that many hackers were put into federal prisons for. In a new report on some of the confidential documents leaked by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden, The Intercept wrote that operatives from both the National Security Agency (NSA) and the British Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ) joined forces in April 2010 to crack […]

Islam is a threat to both Christians and Jews, as we noted from the recent killing of 21 Egyptian Christians in Libya. But scholars of the history of anti-semitism tell us that Jews are the canary in the mine, meaning that they are often the first target for hate-mongers. As bad as anti-Christian sentiment is in the Muslim world, there […]

About 60 percent of illegal immigrant women are estimated to face some kind of sexual abuse. Life News reported: The Obama administration is at it again — attempted to force Christian groups that conduct international relief work to refer women for abortions. “The Obama administration is getting ready to issue new rules requiring charities to provide abortions to child refugees […]

Our country is on the brink of Islamization as it is pushed on us by the Obama Administration and the enablers who support it. Left wing activists in our high schools and universities are working hard to undermine the foundations of individual liberty, responsibility and Christian ethics upon which this country is based.  How can the United States trust a […]
