AI-Generated Image by Grok Investors voted with their pockets, and the merger with Paramount clears another hurdle. A few months ago, conservatives were very worried that Warner Bros.-Discovery would be bought by the ultra-woke people at Netflix, taking the already decadent film industry into an even deeper leftist purgatory of bad movies with nefarious subliminal messages. But that was not to be, as Paramount swooped in and made a much better financial offer for the studio, literally saving the day like a hero from one of their movies. To no one’s surprise, a large group of Hollywood leftists came out…

Mississippi has outlawed lab-grown dairy products, including fake milk. The passage of legislation blocking corporate efforts to displace dairy farmers and their cows with gleaming vats and factories marks not only the impact of the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement but also consumer pushback against corporate domination of food supplies for profit.

Globalists and multinational corporations have pushed fake milk as a trifecta of wins for consumers. Proponents argue it is healthier, will…
Iran International, a London-based, Saudi-funded outlet, reported that the unity campaign in Iran began with a secret letter to the Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei.

In a shocking new low for crime-plagued Detroit, thieves have destroyed 75 fire hydrants in just two days by stealing the valuable metal nozzles and stems for scrap. Local officials say the theft spree is actively endangering lives, as firefighters may arrive at a fire scene and find no working hydrant within range. Executive Fire Commissioner Chuck Simms said, “One hydrant here or there is manageable, but the problem is whoever’s doing this is doing multiple hydrants in a row. So when DFD shows up, they’re not going to have a hydrant within 600 or 900 feet, which puts people’s…
