Iranians on Monday protested on Tehran city streets over their currency plummeted to a record low against the U.S. dollar, which has resulted in the head of the country’s Central Bank resigning. The protests, in downtown Tehran and in the Shush neighborhood near Tehran’s main Grand Bazaar, were reportedly the largest in Iran in three years.

As the two oldest cast members of The View, moderator Whoopi Goldberg (70) and fill-in moderator Joy Behar (83) hold a lot of sway and authority on the show and among their audience. And as such, ABC News had a special responsibility to ensure that their moderators were not hyperbolic or ridiculous. In this year-end roundup, we’ll be looking at how the guardrails came off in 2025. With the return of President Trump to the White House, Goldberg and Behar were sent into a tail spin that resulted in them making numerous outlandish comments whenever the thoughts creeped into their…
Did you ever notice the Hollywood Left is never guilty of hate speech? Unleashing your hatred on Donald Trump and his supporters is never subjected to “fact checking” and it’s never a reason to doubt the future of late-night “comedy.” Christian Toto of HollywoodInToto.com reviews the cultural landscape, along with our Nick Kangadis of MRCTV. Jimmy Kimmel made our Christmas more annoying with his “Alternative Christmas Message” for England’s Channel 4, in which he glamorized himself as a free-speech hero.

U.S. District Judge Paula Xinis ordered the release of Kilmar Abrego Garcia from Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody in December 2025, ruling that the Trump administration lacked a valid legal removal order and had detained him “without lawful authority.” The Salvadoran national, who was deported to El Salvador’s CECOT mega-prison in March despite a 2019 court order protecting him, returned to the United States in June to face human smuggling charges in Tennessee, which he has denied. Following his release, a federal judge imposed a strict gag order on the Department of Homeland Security and other Trump administration officials, prohibiting…
MS Now, formerly MSNBC, sounds like Multiple Sclerosis Now, and one must wonder how they came up with that name. According to a report at EurWeb, they put a lot of thought into it. The rebranding didn’t work and CNN is still a disaster. They had some good numbers in November during the election coverage, but it was a temporary blip. The media industry doesn’t like them any more than the public: “A name change and the problems remain the same – MS NOW has zero vision, even less leadership, and stale content,” one source told Radar. “There’s nothing exciting or…
RIO DE JANEIRO (CN) — Regardless of the year or the setting, white clothing is a constant presence in Brazil’s New Year’s Eve celebrations. The tradition is rooted in Afro-Brazilian religious rituals held in Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro, beginning in the 1950s.Although white clothing became widely accepted as a cultural practice, its religious origins remained for decades associated with stigmatization, police persecution and legal restrictions — a contrast that helps explain why Afro-Brazilian religions continue to face widespread prejudice even as their symbols remain highly visible in celebrations.In the colonial period, Catholicism was the official religion of the Brazilian state,…
I’ve been doing a lot of interviews about Somali fraud lately. And the people I talk to are usually baffled when I say that I’ve been covering it since 2018-2019. This isn’t some recent development. What did happen recently, especially beginning with COVID, is that the fraud ballooned into the billions, but it goes well back. Minnesota authorities knew that Somali welfare state operations had a systemic history of fraud going way back. Take the 2015 busts of Somali day care centers. Four people were arrested Tuesday and two more arrests are likely in connection with charges filed against three…

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz is facing intense backlash after a resurfaced clip from earlier this month went viral.

The good news is that it’s not only Muslim terrorists who get the cover-up treatment. Transgender terrorists do too. Audrey Elizabeth Hale, a woman who falsely identified as a man, shot up a Christian school in Nashville, murdering three children and three adults. The media first tried to bury her ‘transgender’ identity and the authorities spent two years trying to suppress her motive. Now it’s out and it’s what everyone knew it was going to be. The FBI released more than 100 pages of Hale’s writings following litigation, which included journal entries believed to date back to late 2021, handwritten…

I wonder why.December 30, 2025 by Daniel Greenfield Leave a Comment People are generally fairly tolerant. The British accepted generations of mass migration but they’re reaching a limit in part because it’s become so blatantly abusive and so have the authorities, like the Starmer regime, which locks up people for tweeting about the dangers of Islamic terrorism, and then welcomes an Egyptian Muslim terrorist supporter to move to the UK because his mother was British.

Newly resurfaced surveillance footage and investigative reporting confirm that the now-exploding Somali daycare fraud scandal in Minnesota follows a well-documented playbook that state officials were warned about as early as 2013, and repeatedly thereafter. Yet year after year, the fraud was allowed to metastasize, draining hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars from programs meant to help poor children, while far-left Governor Tim Walz, Attorney General Keith Ellison, and radical Rep. Ilhan Omar looked the other way. The scandal exploded into the national spotlight this week after a viral video by YouTuber Nick Shirley went mega-viral, accusing Somali-owned daycare centers of…
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Pushing back on President Trump’s claim that “I have the right to do anything I want to do,” the U.S. Supreme Court has declined to lift a lower court order preventing the President from deploying National Guard troops against civilians in Chicago, allowing the block on the deployment to remain in place.In urging the Supreme Court to rein in the President’s attempts to establish a de facto standing army, a coalition of civil liberties organizations—including The Rutherford Institute, the ACLU, ACLU of Illinois, the Knight First Amendment Institute, and FIRE—argued in Trump v. Illinois that American law and tradition strictly limit the…
