London’s far-left Mayor Sadiq Khan has complained that Britain is not safe with President Donald Trump in the White House and therefore the UK should seek to re-join the European Union for protection. In his latest argument rolled out for his longstanding goal of reversing Brexit, London Mayor Sadiq Khan cited the conflict between the United States, Israel, and the Islamist nation of Iran as justification for re-joining the EU. In an interview this week with Rome’s La Repubblica newspaper, Khan argued that Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer should make re-joining the bloc a central campaign promise for the next…

On Tuesday’s broadcast of MS NOW’s “The Weeknight,” Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) defended Democrats rejecting an off-ramp on the DHS shutdown and said that Democrats think Republicans “understand that they’re getting blamed for those long lines, and they’re also getting blamed for being unreasonable about putting guardrails around ICE.” Co-host Symone Sanders Townsend said, “[T]oday you all held the line. This was an off-ramp you could have taken that would not have given any additional funding to ICE, but it would not have included the reforms you all asked for. And you didn’t take the easy deal, and I do…

President Donald Trump claims that the Iranians are desperate to reach a deal with him but that they fear retribution from their own people The US and Israel have assassinated numerous Iranian officials and have now allegedly removed Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf from their hit list – temporarily – to have someone to talk to.President Donald Trump has claimed that the Iranians are desperate to reach a deal with him, but fear retribution from their own people if they publicly admit to that.“They want to make a deal so badly, but they’re afraid to…

Spain’s socialist Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez scolded the U.S. and Israel on Wednesday for their ongoing attacks on Iran, calling the conflict an “absurd, cruel and illegal” challenge to international law. In an address to the Spanish Congress he further warned of consequences “far worse” than Iraq as opponents mocked images of him on Iranian missiles. Ynet News reports in the lower house speech outlining his government’s opposition to a U.S.-Israeli attack on Iran, Sánchez argued the war is intended, among other things, “to undermine international law, destabilize the Middle East and bury Gaza under the rubble of oblivion.” Sánchez,…

Andrew Kolvet pushed back against the ongoing “crackpot conspiracy garbage” surrounding Charlie Kirk’s assassination, revealing, “There is going to be even more evidence presented to the public in May,” adding, “The prosecution is going to lay out its case against Tyler Robinson, and I’m told they’ve got this guy dead to rights.” “I have been open to everything,” Kolvet said during Tuesday’s episode of The Charlie Kirk Show. “We shared a lot of information about trans, about Charlie — how Charlie was more concerned than any other community about the trans coming after him.” Watch Below: “I heard, over the…

The outcome of the war with Iran will determine America’s capabilities on the world stage for years to come. That is what makes the current conflict in West Asia so consequential, far beyond the region itself.US policy toward Iran has become increasingly erratic. Rather than focus on the president’s shifting rhetoric, it is more useful to examine the logic underpinning the confrontation. Washington appears to have convinced itself that the moment is right to act decisively against Tehran, exploiting what it perceives as a window of vulnerability.The objective, viewed in isolation, has a certain cold rationality. A single, well-executed strike…

British military officers are embedded with CENTCOM in preparation for a long-term Strait of Hormuz freedom-of-navigation mission, and meetings have already taken place with like-minded allies, including France, Canada, and Japan, a report states. The United Kingdom will lead a multinational coalition to re-open and then maintain the Strait of Hormuz “as soon as the conditions are right” — likely meaning not while a war is still going on — it is claimed. The Times cites unnamed British defence officials who say meetings between partner nations have already taken place, and more are planned, suggesting that while the coalition of Western…

The Productivity Flu Although this week brought what looked like bad news on productivity, the underlying story was much milder than the initial diagnosis suggested. The government said that nonfarm productivity, which measures hourly output of workers, increased at a 1.8 percent annual rate last quarter instead of the 2.8 percent pace initially estimated. That was slightly worse than the downgrade to two percent economists had forecast. Unit labor costs—how much it costs employers to produce one unit of production—were revised up to 4.4 percent from 2.8 percent, causing some folks to worry that a wage-push inflation spiral might get…

A federal judge in Nevada dismissed a lawsuit by a group of nuns that claimed Smith & Wesson violated its fiduciary duty to shareholders by making and selling AR-15s. On May 7, 2024, Breitbart News reported a similar dismissal in Nevada’s Clark County District Court, after plaintiffs including the Adrian Dominican Sisters, Sisters of Bon Secours USA, Sisters of St. Francis of Philadelphia, and Sisters of the Holy Names of Jesus & Mary, filed suit. They filed a suit claiming that the defendants, who are Smith & Wesson board members and the company’s senior management team, “knowingly allowed the Company to become exposed…

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer rolled out an energy and climate change agenda Wednesday as a preview of what Democrats have in store if they take the chamber’s majority in November’s elections. Schumer’s five-point plan seeks to ride the national momentum on affordability, framing Democrats as the party not just of clean energy and fighting climate change, but of lower electricity bills and more jobs. It touches on some longtime Democratic priorities — like bringing back the Inflation Reduction Act clean energy tax incentives that President Donald Trump and Republicans rolled back last year — and easing permitting hurdles for…
