Praying with the soldiers near the front. Photo by Antonio Graceffo From late July until last week, I was on my latest mission in Burma (stories available on the Gateway Pundit). During that time, I witnessed people in Demoso City, Karenni State, trying to live as normally as possible under the constant sounds of artillery, mortars, drones, and the occasional airstrike. Literally all day, every day, there were explosions. And this is how they have lived for four and a half years, since the 2021 military coup that ousted the democratically elected government.

Israel revealed Tuesday that there were several terrorists among the dead in Monday’s strike on a hospital in Gaza — though Israeli officials were not attempting to excuse the strike, which they said was done improperly. 20 people were killed and some 50 injured when Israel struck Nasser Hospital in southern Gaza. Israeli Prime Minister expressed regret at the strike within hours, as international criticism mounted. Specifically, Israeli military investigators are said to have revealed that tank shells were used rather than more precise munitions, and that there had been confusion about the authority to fire in the first place.…
During a ride-along with U.S. Marshals in Washington D.C., Fox News National Correspondent Alexis McAdams spoke to a man who was arrested during the ride-along who she said was wanted “in connection with an armed carjacking in Maryland” who stated that he’s going to be released after three days and the same thing always happens. The suspect said, “The judge is — then he’s going to say, we’re going to put him on a three-day hold. Then once the three-day hold is up, ain’t nobody never shows up.” He continued, “I’ve done been over to the D.C. jail six times for this…

The tariff rate on India doubled overnight in a bid to discourage the country from continuing to buy cheap Russian oil, a major source of funds for Moscow’s war against Ukraine. U.S. President Donald Trump has delivered his promised secondary sanctions against the Russian economy for its invasion of Ukraine, punishing Russia’s customers rather than trying to damage the country directly, as has been the basis for Western sanctions through the war to this point. India, which was already operating under a 25 per cent tariff as of earlier this month, has had an additional 25 per cent punishment rate…
California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) is reportedly refusing to recognize one of his predecessors, Arnold Schwarzenegger (R), with a key state honor because of his objection to Newsom’s gerrymandering push. Schwarzenegger, 78, championed the cause of an independent redistricting commission that, in theory, prevented politicians from designing the congressional map after each new Census every ten years. Voters amended the state constitution to create the commission in 2008. Though the commission was effectively gamed by Democrats anyway, it was a rare step towards transparency and nonpartisanship. Newsom and his party are now trying to do away with the commission —…

Ottawa’s annual Pride parade on Sunday was halted by a pro-Palestinian activist group called Queers for Palestine — Ottawa (Q4P), who demanded that the Capital Pride group boycott Israel and declare support for “all oppressed peoples, including Palestinians.” CBC’s account of the conflict between the two left-wing groups was somewhat difficult to follow, because it was not always clear which group was shouting what slogan. Capital Pride seemed to take umbrage at the pro-Palestinian demonstrators hijacking the event and haranguing them in the middle of the street, while Q4P was furious that Capital Pride told them to tone down the…
