Over 300 people marched against mass migration and undocumented immigrants in Pretoria, South Africa, on Tuesday. Police stepped in to prevent physical confrontations when the marchers entered a district of the city with a heavy immigrant population. The demonstration was organized by a civic group called March and March, which has accused the South African government of not doing enough to enforce immigration and citizenship laws. The group demanded mass deportations at a previous rally in March. Most of the same allied groups attended both the March and April demonstrations, including the ActionSA political party and Operation Dudula, an anti-immigration…

Walz is singing a new tune these days, positioning himself as a tough guy on fraud in his blue state wrought with scandal. Following the news of more federal raids in Minneapolis linked to alleged Somali welfare fraud, the Democrat proudly stated on social media that those committing fraud in the state will be caught and held accountable. “If you commit fraud in…

The Senate is preparing a weekslong punt for an expiring spy law after House Republicans linked a longer-term extension to a digital currency ban that is DOA across the Capitol. “We’re probably going to end up doing a short-term,” Senate Majority Leader John Thune said Wednesday, adding that leadership is currently “running the traps” on a short-term extension of Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. Thune said that punt would last about 45 days, putting the new deadline in mid-June. The decision to do another short-term extension comes as the surveillance power is set to expire Thursday night.…

America’s Artificial Intelligence Manufacturing Boom Orders for core business equipment surged 3.3 percent in March, the Commerce Department reported Wednesday, the largest monthly gain since the summer of 2020. The engine behind the jump was unmistakable: orders for computers and electronic products climbed 3.7 percent to $29.6 billion, rising in 11 of the last 12 months.

But the most important thing about the March durable goods report is not that businesses are spending…

North Korea’s communist dictator Kim Jong-un celebrated the untold numbers of his citizens dying in battle to support the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine in remarks on Monday, especially acknowledging soldiers who committed suicide to avoid capture. Kim’s mention of the “self-blasting” soldiers appeared to confirm over a year of reporting, often citing anonymous sources, that the North Korean regime was indeed indoctrinating young men sent to fight for Russia to choose to kill themselves rather than become prisoners of war in Ukraine. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed the existence of such North Korean prisoners in January 2025, offering a…

The House passed a three-year reauthorization of a key spy power Wednesday, sending the extension to the Senate one day before it is set to expire. A bipartisan coalition of lawmakers voted 235-191 to extend Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act after weeks of agonizing negotiations and intraparty disputes. But the saga isn’t over yet. The Senate is unlikely to clear the House-passed extension, which will be sent over with an unrelated, permanent ban on the Federal Reserve’s ability to issue a digital currency attached. That provision was included at the behest of ultraconservatives, but it is so…
