With the U.S. Senate voting to defund both the Public Broadcasting Service and National Public Radio, what losses will the American people suffer without tax dollars going towards two largely politicized networks that take their money only to push partisan narratives that favor Democrats? According to Texas Republican Rep. Chip Roy, not much. Whatever arguments existed for the practical purpose of those networks — namely NPR for Roy’s case — the Texas congressman dispelled them in noting how useless it was during the devastating Texas floods that now have a death toll of 135. On Thursday, Roy posted footage of…

On Thursday, Colbert revealed that CBS was canceling The Late Show, explaining that the program will not be renewed for another season, effectively ending the show after May 2026. The network, meanwhile, called the cancelation a “purely financial decision.” Democrat lawmakers reacted to the news by appearing to try to connect the cancelation to President Donald Trump, noting that days before the announcement of The Late Show‘s demise, Colbert…

In the quaint Swiss town of Porrentruy, a public swimming pool has slammed the gates on all foreigners following rampant chaos from French migrant youths. These troublemakers, often with Arabic names, turned the serene spot into a nightmare of sexual harassment and violence. Now, locals breathe easy once again. Foreigners with Swiss work permits or hotel vouchers can enter, but at double the price. This deters casual intruders and prevents the migrants from the nearby French suburb of Belfort  from entering. Before the ban, young girls endured groping and catcalls in the bathrooms, while thefts ran wild. Mothers barred their…

On Thursday’s “CBS Evening News,” co-host John Dickerson and CBS News National Investigative Correspondent Tom Hanson stated that the Trump administration isn’t targeting the worst of the worst for deportation first because of the estimated 70,000 people with criminal convictions who have been deported since January, only around 2,000 were convicted of murder, sex offenses, or kidnapping. Co-host Maurice DuBois began the segment by saying, “Now to the president’s crackdown on illegal immigration. He has said the first targets for deportation would be criminals he described as the worst of the worst.” Dickerson then said, “But as we reported last night,…

L.A. Mayor Karen Bass has been caught promoting a hoax, claiming that law enforcement took a woman from her car and held her in a warehouse without due process. She’s a mother from L.A. — taken out of her car on her way to work, and then held in a warehouse as officers hoped she would “self-deport.” No hearing. Just fear. This doesn’t make anyone safer. https://t.co/gwkq017y4l — Mayor Karen Bass (@MayorOfLA) July 1, 2025 The truth is, the woman at the center of the story made it all up. She faked her own kidnapping and then tried to fundraise…
