In what can only be described as inevitable, according to a Campus Reform report, “A record-low share of Americans say a college education is ‘very important” We have reported extensively at The Gateway Pundit on the many documented bias incidents and biased professors on campus. Now, people are coming to the inevitable conclusion that college is a waste. “A recent Gallup poll found that 31% of U.S. adults now view college as “very important,” which is down from 70% in 2013 and below the 36% Gallup recorded when it first asked the question in 1978.” Costly schools that indoctrinate instead of educate…

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent appeared on Fox and Friends this morning to discuss his recent schooling of Massachusetts Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren in a letter where he savaged her with a happy ‘Indigenous Peoples Day’ message. In more than 100 letters to Bessent, Warren has been hurling accusations at Bessent and demanding information about the Trump Administration’s monetary policy. Bessent shared his response to one of Warren’s letters on Saturday, slamming her incompetence and obviously politically motivated “letter-writing crusade,” while offering her a “Foreign Exchange for Dummies” course. Then, he savaged the fake Indian Senator, handwriting at the bottom of…

On Thursday afternoon ICE agents in NYC shot and wounded a 28 year old man, who DHS called, “a criminal illegal alien from the Dominican Republic” as he attempted to flee, by reportedly accelerating his car at the agents, while a five year old boy was in the back seat. As expected, before knowing the facts the leftist media trashed ICE, as was the case on CNN’s NewsNight with Abby Phillip. Near the top of her show, Phillip did tell viewers, “DHS says that the man is a longtime criminal, here illegally with ties to gangs.” She then added, “And…

James Talarico We now know where James Talarico really was when he disappeared for two weeks from the campaign trail. His excuse was that he was suffering from the flu, but it appears he was suffering from a breakdown of sorts. Talarico just vanished out of thin air after a September 28 fundraiser with TDS-infected actor Robert DeNiro and allies of NYC Mayor Zohran Mandani in New York. He was also raising money from the gay Human Rights Campaign in New York. Talarico finally resurfaced on Friday, October 9, at the ACL music festival in Austin, Texas, the Gateway Pundit…
On Friday’s The Moment, MS NOW host Katy Tur gave a commentary complaining about President Donald Trump’s recent statement calling out Somali-linked violence in Minnesota. As she led a discussion about the President’s words, she and MS NOW contributor Peter Baker both acted completely oblivious to what the President was likely referring to.This comes as their network has blatantly ignored both Somali gang violence in the state as well as the arrest of a Somali American who was allegedly planning a mass killing at the Mall of America.Tur began by showing clip of Trump’s presidential announcement speech from 2015 in…
In the Maricao State Forest on the western end of Puerto Rico, a biologist encountered a flock of parrots in a panic. Raúl Correa of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service followed the chaotic squawks and found a young bird in the grips of a red-tailed boa (Boa constrictor). The snake had trapped a juvenile Puerto Rican parrot (Amazona vittata) on a bamboo stalk. Correa quickly sliced the bamboo, causing the snake to lose its grip and release the bird. USFWS observed the parrot after the incident to ensure it didn’t suffer any lingering injuries. Just a day later, the…
New York Attorney General Letitia James is facing a bar ethics complaint over comments she made about the alleged sexual assault at Cornell University involving seven fraternity members, raising questions about her impartiality as special prosecutor.According to the New York Post, the National Legal and Policy Center filed a nine-page complaint arguing that James’ public expression of support for the alleged victim, posted shortly before her appointment to the case, could undermine confidence in a fair investigation. The complaint calls for James to recuse herself or be removed from the case. Two of the accused men have also sought her…
Sign up to see the future, today Can’t-miss innovations from the bleeding edge of science and tech The United States runs on gas powered generators. As of 2022, the US had nearly 1,000 gas-fired plants, which was already more than the next nine countries combined. Under returning president Donald Trump, the country’s embrace of high-carbon power has only accelerated, as energy developers abandon environmentally-friendly projects like off-shore wind farms in favor of more noxious gas- and coal-powered facilities. As if our rapidly warming world wasn’t being choked by enough smog, the AI boom is now adding even more fuel to…

As an able-bodied Christian, it’s actually quite easy for me to say that I’m opposed to assisted suicide. God made us in His image, giving us dignity and beauty. Why would I ever want to see that snuffed out early — or more alarmingly, why would I ever want the government to decide when to snuff us out early? But, again, I’m relatively healthy, a few extra pounds around the waist notwithstanding. Assisted suicide laws are something of an abstraction to me. There is nothing abstract about those laws for Jason J. McGuire, president and CEO of the Christian and…
Iran rejected Washington’s response to its seven-condition plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, calling it insufficient and saying key issues remain unclear. Security chief Mohsen Rezaei said Tehran would not reopen the waterway or negotiate until its conditions were met, and that Iran was no longer responding to the United States, though the two sides remained in contact through intermediaries including Qatar. The plan could restore normal maritime passage within seven days; reported conditions include lifting the naval blockade and oil sanctions and observing a ceasefire. Disagreement over the terms and sequence of steps is prolonging uncertainty around a…
The U.S. Department of Justice has relaxed restrictions on political activities for Attorney General Todd Blanche and other senior political appointees, according to new internal guidance issued this week.The memo, authored by Assistant Attorney General Jolene Ann Laurie, allows presidential appointees confirmed by the Senate to participate in certain political activities in their personal capacity. Covered activities include speaking at political rallies, campaigning for candidates, canvassing for votes, and serving as delegates or officers within a national political party. The policy is reportedly applicable to several high-ranking officials, including the attorney general, deputy attorney general, assistant attorneys general, FBI director,…

Tim Walz expressed his concern with the Center of Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and Health & Human Services (HHS) for freezing $550 million in federal funding in 2026, claiming the state’s Medicaid program is being unfairly targeted in fraud implications, the Washington Sun reported.

With about three weeks to go before a critical midterm election, you can always count on the Elitist Media to project Democrats in the best possible light. Such was the case for NBC. as Kristen Welker sat down with Michigan Democrat Senate nominee Abdulrahman Mohammed El-Sayed, for what amounted to a ritual warm tongue bath. The most notable part of the interview is what it omits: El-Sayed’s loudest surrogate, champagne socialist streamer Hasan Piker. Welker did not ask a single question about El-Sayed’s relationship with Piker or about any of Piker’s past controversial statements. Neither did Welker address Piker’s presence…
U.S. President Donald Trump has announced that Ukraine and Russia have agreed to a ceasefire on attacking each other’s respective energy industries, which have increasingly become targets as the war on the frontline has largely devolved into a stalemate.

After all this time, it’s still worth asking the question of Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed: Whose side is he on? I’m not just asking whether he’s a liberal. I’m asking whether he wants America to win, or if he’s one of those Democrats who only believes in America if it can be fundamentally changed to fit their own strange mold of good and evil. In his case, the hard-left nominee in one of the oddest Senate races in many a year seems to have trouble distinguishing who’s the good guy in the Iran conflict, or whether the late…
As the summer drew to a close, aerial surveyors with the New England Aquarium saw more than 2,000 animals across 15 different marine species in the Northeast Canyons and Seamounts Marine National Monument, southeast of Cape Cod.

By Simon August Record tanker rates have made American crude too expensive for Asian refiners, who are turning to Middle Eastern and South American oil instead. Chartering a supertanker to haul two million barrels of U.S. crude from the Gulf of Mexico to China in November cost $80 million in early October, Reuters reported, citing data from shipbroker Simpson, Spence Young. That works out to about $40 a barrel in shipping costs, compared with $8.60 before the Iran war started in February, according to the outlet. The freight bill has closed the window for profitably shipping U.S. crude to Asia,…

Oblivious Hollywood dullard Stephen King had the audacity on Thursday to ask folks on social media why a blatantly conservative TV series didn’t get nominated for an Emmy Award this year. The Paramount+ series, “Landman,” is as right-wing as it gets — it’s pro-oil, anti-woke, and features a plethora of golden rants about green energy, electric vehicles, and other stupid liberal ideas. The fact that King, a leftist if ever there were one, even likes the show is shocking unto itself. Less shocking is the obliviousness it took for the pompous liberal to wonder why the show was being snubbed.…

Vol. 339: “What the Bible Says About Light in the Old Testament” and Vol. 340: “What Jesus Says About Light in the New Testament.” To quickly recap, at creation, God’s first spoken words in Genesis were “Let there be light.” God is light, the source that brings order to the universe and stimulates growth in all living matter. Light, at creation, now, and forever, symbolizes hope, truth, and God’s presence.…
