Democrat Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed spent the final hours of his campaign Monday at a content creators pool party in Detroit, where left-wing streamer Hasan Piker was among the guests. El-Sayed made the stop on the eve of Tuesday’s Democrat primary, according to a reporter who documented the gathering. Also in attendance were Michigan state Rep. Donavan McKinney, along with progressive congressional candidates Melat Kiros and Chris Rabb. Piker has become one of the more contentious figures in El-Sayed’s circle. The Twitch streamer, who holds millions of followers made up largely of men under 30, rallied with El-Sayed on…
Sen. Susan Collins said Tuesday she will vote against Todd Blanche’s confirmation as attorney general. The Maine Republican, who is facing a difficult race for reelection, said in a statement she would oppose Blanche, citing “several actions that have further eroded the Department’s independence.” She specifically mentioned his role in a controversial IRS settlement with President Donald Trump and over having “promised an anti-abortion organization that he would seek to prohibit the mailing of abortion medication to women nationwide.” Two other Republicans — Bill Cassidy of Louisiana and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska — are known to still be undecided; Blanche…
Maryland Democrats passed a proposed state constitutional amendment Tuesday to jump-start the state’s 2028 redistricting efforts, capping off roughly a year of infighting over how best to respond to White House-led map redraws across the country. The amendment, passed by both chambers in the state Legislature on Tuesday, aims to insulate future Democratic redraws from being overturned in the courts. Voters will still need to decide on its ultimate fate in November. But Democratic political leaders in the state still have broad disagreements over whether they could have done more to counter Republican redistricting. The GOP could net as many…
Credit: ESPN Former LSU national champion and NFL defensive tackle Breiden Fehoko is done with the nonsense on the (W)NBA coaches and their insane propaganda pushing men into women’s sports. On Sunday, Minnesota Lynx head coach Cheryl Reeve, one of the loudest voices in the WNBA’s activist class, decided the best way to respond to Indiana Fever guard Sophie Cunningham’s common-sense defense of women’s sports was to wear a “Trans Kids Belong” T-shirt on the sideline during the Fever-Lynx game in Minneapolis. Reeve has spent days lecturing everyone about “inclusion,” claiming the idea of biological males in girls’ locker rooms…
A young first-time novelist from Nigeria named Jerry Falade was on the verge of receiving $2 million for his debut novel when accusations of AI usage queered the deal. Now he’s accusing everyone of racism. The novel is titled Call Me, I’ll Hide the Body, and reportedly involves one of those characters you call to clean up a murder scene. According to what we know now (this story was first reported by Jeff Sneider), Falade signed a deal worth $2 million or more with Minotaur after a 14-way auction. The book was set to debut in 2028. Then Falade’s own…

According to the French paper of record Le Figaro, the migrants were rescued by French and British ships after their people smuggler-operated boat erupted in flames while trying to cross the English Channel illegally on Tuesday morning.

A district court on Thursday blocked New York from enforcing its assisted suicide law against four orders of Catholic nuns and several Catholic healthcare ministries as their religious liberty lawsuit continues. The temporary agreement, which New York agreed to, will shield the Catholic nuns and ministries from being forced to take any part in assisted suicides when the law legalizing the practice goes into effect on Wednesday, attorneys with Becket Fund for Religious Liberty announced. The agreement will be in effect while the court considers their request for a preliminary injunction. “Forcing Catholic nuns to participate in suicide—and robbing New…
Her attack on multipolarity mistakes a shift in global power for a plot, confusing structural change with hostile intent Laura Loomer’s recent condemnation of multipolarity marks one of the clearest attempts within the American Right to define the emerging new international order as an existential threat rather than an inevitable transformation. Her arguments deserve careful examination, not because they are unique, but because they reflect assumptions that have become increasingly common in debates about the future of global power.Loomer presents her first argument in the simplest possible terms. She claims that multipolarity exists to destroy American supremacy. According to her, Russia promotes…
A Coptic Christian church in Egypt endured an attack by an Islamic mob earlier this month — resulting in the arrests of four Christians who endured beatings.

Some of the believers were injured, while the priest’s car and the church building were damaged. Tal Al-Quiblya, a province in upper Egypt, did not have a church for many years, but Christians started “organising prayers and regular masses…
