Oil rig The blue state of Hawaii is suing oil companies over climate change, but for some strange reason they have exempted one refinery that has executives who give a lot of cash to Democrats. What an odd coincidence. The entire conversation about climate change should have ended the instant that leftists began targeting Teslas and Tesla dealerships over DOGE. It proved that the left doesn’t really care about this issue, they just want what they want. The lawyers for the oil companies will surely point this out, if they’re smart.

First Lady Melania Trump embodied quiet luxury in the East Room of the White House this week while unveiling a United States Postal Service (USPS) stamp honoring former First Lady Barbara Bush. Joined by Barbara Bush’s daughter, Dorothy Bush Koch, Melania Trump praised the former first lady’s “unwavering conviction, dignity, and deep loyalty to her loved ones have left an indelible mark on our hearts and history.” For the occasion, Mrs. Trump chose a white cashmere top under an oversized virgin wool and silk grain de poudre blazer from Christian Dior, retailing for $4,500. Along with Christian Louboutin’s 100mm Kate…
Trump has been in office for only a few months and has already managed to cut national debt growth by 92 percent. This is definitely one of the things that would cause people to say, ‘I voted for this.’ While the left rants and raves over cuts to various government programs, Trump is securing the nation’s financial future by getting spending under control. And remember, while Trump and Republicans are taking care of this serious business, Democrats are obsessing over and defending illegal immigrant criminals. The contrast could not be sharper. The Washington Examiner reports: Trump has slowed national debt…
Heart EyesNetflix We are nearly halfway through the year, and despite that, we only have a couple good mainstream horror movies that have been released thus far. As such, when Netflix has snagged one that has gotten rather high scores, it’s worth highlighting. That movie is Heart Eyes, what looked like a goofy slasher film, and…is a goofy slasher film, but one that’s a throwback to schlocky classics in a way that’s actually quite fun. It’s not a cerebral A24 flick by any means, but it’s something we don’t see too often these days and not everything needs to be…
Reform UK leader Nigel Farage has called for a “halt” to immigration, arguing that the mass importation of foreigners “devalues” Britain. The open borders agenda embarked upon by both Westminster establishment parties, having begun under Tony Blair and brought to record heights by Boris Johnson, has been a boon to big corporations to bing down the cost of labour but has come at the cost of social cohesion and the British way of life, Nigel Farage has said. “Many of those that have come in the last 20 years do not share our values,” he told The Express. “And so in…
NEW YORK (AP) — The final stage of jury selection for the racketeering and sex trafficking trial of hip-hop mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs was postponed until early next week, right before opening arguments begin, a federal judge decided on Friday. Prosecutors allege that Combs, 55, used his fame and power at the top of the hip-hop world to sexually abuse women from 2004 to 2024. He pleaded not guilty after his September arrest and has remained held without bail at a federal lockup in Brooklyn. Judge Arun Subramanian granted the defense lawyers’ request to delay the last step in jury…
Credit: USAID U.S. Agency for International Development When USAID came under the microscope of DOGE, people on the left absolutely flipped out. They all acted like USAID was above reproach and that the world would come to an end if it wasn’t fully funded. Not only did the world not end, but now we’re learning that a senior officer for the organization has been charged with bailout fraud from the pandemic. We are probably going to see fraud like this uncovered for years to come. The Daily Wire reports: USAID Contracting Officer Charged With Pandemic Bailout Fraud A USAID employee…

The Gulf of America may be facing an identity crisis in Google maps after Mexico filed suit this week against the tech giant for changing the name of the body of water. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum announced the lawsuit on Friday and wants the oceanic region’s name restored to the Gulf of Mexico. President Donald Trump changed the name with an executive order as one of his first pieces of business when he took office for the second time. The order reportedly only carries authority within the United States. Sheinbaum threatened to sue Google in February. She provided no details in Friday’s…
