China is preparing to deliver new air defense systems to Iran within the next few weeks, a report citing unnamed U.S. intelligence sources says. Drawing on “three people familiar with recent intelligence assessments,” CNN said that the delivery would be a “provocative move,” considering “Beijing said it helped broker the fragile cease fire” that paused the war between Iran and the United States earlier this week. President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping are also set to meet next month after the president’s previous plan to make the trip to China was rescheduled because of the conflict. The intelligence appears to indicate that Iran may…

KYIV, Ukraine (AP) – Russia continued to strike Ukrainian positions with drones after a Kremlin-declared Easter ceasefire took effect on Saturday, a Ukrainian military officer told The Associated Press. “The ceasefire is not being observed by the Russian side,” said Serhii Kolesnychenko, a communications officer for the 148th Separate Artillery Brigade. He said that while artillery fire had paused in the sector where his brigade was working, at the junction of the Donetsk, Dnipropetrovsk, and Zaporizhzhia regions, Russian forces continued to use drones to strike Ukrainian positions.

Amy Acton, the Democrat frontrunner for Ohio’s gubernatorial primary, had a drunken meltdown in 2019 that involved the police. At the time, the 60-year-old Acton was the director of Ohio’s Department of Health for Republican Gov. Mike DeWine — the lone Democrat in his cabinet.

Not someone’s…
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) took to social media, where they accused ABC7 Eyewitness News of ideological censorship for using artificial intelligence to edit DHS statements in their coverage of immigration enforcement actions carried out on Thursday. DHS accused the media outlet of using AI to mold their coverage to “edit DHS statements to conform to their narrative bias,” remove an illegal alien’s criminal background, and shamelessly lie. DHS posted a scathing message on the social media platform X to the Los Angeles affiliate, ABC7, criticizing the ABC affiliate for editing its response to an inquiry about arrests that…
Cliff Maloney, the CEO of Citizens Alliance, said during an interview on Breitbart News Saturday he does not “see how” Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) “moves forward with a path to win” in California’s gubernatorial race after sexual assault and rape allegations were brought against him. Speaking with host and Breitbart News Washington bureau chief Matthew Boyle, Maloney gave Democrat lawmakers “credit” for following “talking points.” Maloney pointed out that after the San Francisco Chronicle released a report from a former staffer who claimed Swalwell had allegedly sexually assaulted her in two separate instances, Democrats such as Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) and House…
