Image: Shutterstock By Mark Tanos British police arrested six members of a fringe religious sect Wednesday after launching a massive dawn raid over allegations of sexual abuse, forced marriage, and modern slavery. More than 500 officers from Cheshire Constabulary and neighboring forces descended on three properties in Crewe, England, linked to the Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light (AROPL), according to The Telegraph. The operation centered on the group’s headquarters at Webb House, a former orphanage. Authorities said the allegations involve one female victim who belonged to the sect when the offenses allegedly took place in 2023. The suspects include four…
The suspension of the search came two weeks after the crew notified the Coast Guard that the ship had lost its starboard engines and needed assistance.SAIPAN, Northern Mariana Islands (AP) — The search has been suspended for five missing crew members of a cargo ship that overturned near the Northern Mariana Islands during a typhoon in the Pacific Ocean, authorities said Wednesday.Six people were aboard the 145-foot (44-meter) ship, called the Mariana.

Trump’s Iran war: A micro-military disaster that accelerates America’s decline President Donald Trump launched Operation Epic Fury against Iran on Feb. 28, 2026, striking nuclear sites despite campaign promises to end endless wars. Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz to tanker traffic within the first week, cutting off oil and gas shipments critical to the global economy. The conflict mirrors historical imperial declines from ancient Athens to modern Britain, where micro-military misadventures accelerated the collapse of great powers. Trump’s actions have fractured his political coalition, with allies refusing to support the war and international condemnation mounting. The war’s outcome threatens…
Drone strike kills nuclear plant worker as Ukraine gambles with nuclear accidents with global consequences A Ukrainian drone strike killed a transport shop worker at the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) on April 27, 2026. The IAEA condemned the attack but continues negotiations with Kiev, even as Ukraine demands ownership of the Russian-controlled facility. Repeated drone strikes near active reactors raise the specter of a catastrophic nuclear accident with global health consequences. The U.S. continues funding the war despite President Trump’s campaign promises to end it. Russia has rejected any joint control or temporary access for NATO-aligned nations, citing intelligence…
Acting U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Julie Davis will resign in June amid reported disagreements with Trump over his softening stance toward Russia. The State Department insists the departure is a routine retirement, but Davis is the second top envoy to Kyiv to leave under Trump in over a year. Davis’s predecessor, Bridget Brink, resigned in 2025 and accused Trump of appeasing Russia by pressuring Ukraine. Trump’s peace plan has stalled, with proposals for territorial concessions and criticism of Zelensky stalling negotiations and sidelining career diplomats. Ukraine faces a lonely struggle as U.S. attention shifts to the Middle East and the…
A shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner on April 25, 2026, has exposed security vulnerabilities that could increase Iran’s motivation to target senior U.S. officials, according to a former Defense Department intelligence officer. The suspect, identified as Cole Thomas Allen, 31, of Torrance, California, breached a security checkpoint at the Washington Hilton Hotel and opened fire. President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Speaker of the House Mike Johnson were evacuated from the ballroom, according to Fox News. Allen is in custody and made an initial court appearance on Monday, according to the report. The gathering included…
Meal timing matters: Study reveals breakfast timing and fasting window impact weight and metabolic health A new study shows that eating breakfast early and maintaining a longer overnight fast leads to lower body weight, while skipping breakfast and delaying the first meal until afternoon provides no weight-loss benefits and is linked to poorer lifestyle habits. Circadian rhythms dictate metabolic efficiency. Eating at erratic or late times disrupts the body’s internal clock, impairing blood sugar control, fat metabolism, and liver function, increasing risks for obesity, diabetes, and fatty liver disease. Late breakfast timing may signal underlying health issues. Delaying the first…
The guts of civilization: Why modern food is reprogramming your microbiome to recycle estrogen New research shows that people in industrialized societies harbor gut microbes that are seven times more effective at reactivating estrogen and returning it to the bloodstream than those in hunter-gatherer or rural farming communities. The estrobolome refers to gut microbes that possess an enzyme capable of reversing the liver’s deactivation of estrogen, recycling the hormone instead of excreting it. This recycling capacity is directly linked to the modern diet and lifestyle. Formula-fed infants have nearly three times the estrogen-recycling capacity of breastfed babies, with up to…
Combining physical activity with proper nutrition yields greater cognitive protection than either alone. Exercise boosts neuroplasticity and BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor), while anti-inflammatory diets (Mediterranean/MIND) enhance these effects by reducing neurodegeneration. Studies included aerobic exercise, resistance training, balance programs, omega-3 supplementation and dietary counseling. Simple, sustainable routines (walking, bodyweight exercises, fish/flaxseed intake) showed the best adherence and results. Strength training (1–2x/week) and adequate protein intake trigger myokines, proteins that cross the blood-brain barrier to support neuron health and slow cognitive decline. Even small improvements (0.15 standardized mean difference) can delay dementia onset, preserving independence and quality of life over decades.…

U.S. Supreme Court (Image: YouTube screen grab) By Ashley Brasfield The United States Supreme Court has knocked another peg out of the legalized racism instituted by progressive election law, ordering Louisiana to redraw its congressional map in a landmark voting rights decision. On Wednesday, the Court dealt a blow to a key provision of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, siding with Louisiana Republicans and President Donald Trump’s administration by blocking an electoral map that created a second majority-black congressional district.

NPR “domestic extremism correspondent” Odette Yousef has a consistent pattern of finding extremism only on the “far right.” When Cole Tomas Allen shot up the White House Correspondents Dinner, that was somehow not left-wing extremism, as NPR’s headlines over Yousef’s reportage/camouflage from Monday’s All Things Considered claimed: Shooting suspect’s online presence belies claims of ‘radicalism’ And: With no radical footprint, what drove suspect to try and assassinate Trump? But wait! The violence itself defines extremism! But in Odette’s oeuvre, only right-wingers can be radicals. Last fall, she laboriously avoided tagging Charlie Kirk’s killer as leftist: “the landscape of political violence…

PARIS (CN) — Former French President Nicolas Sarkozy and his ex-campaign manager Claude Guéant continued Wednesday to dispute the details of their dealings with former autocratic Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi’s inner circle.“I’m not saying he’s lying, I’m saying his memory has changed,” Sarkozy exclaimed in a hot courtroom Wednesday morning. Guéant, who also served as interior minister, gave statements to the court that have contradicted the Sarkozy’s version of events point by point.The highly publicized falling-out has not only weakened Sarkozy’s defense, which has hinged on his insistence that Guéant acted completely independently of his former boss — a scenario…
Democratic Washington Rep. Adam Smith pressed Secretary of War Pete Hegseth Wednesday about his seemingly contradictory nuclear claims about Iran’s nuclear program. Hegseth said Iran’s nuclear facilities were “obliterated,” even though the administration has claimed that the war was necessary to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. While Smith challenged the administration’s motives, Hegseth said entering the war was justified because the Iranians had not given up their nuclear ambitions.“Woah, woah, woah, woah. Reclaiming my time for just a second here. We had to start this war, you just said, 60 days ago because the nuclear weapon was an…

The shots that rang through the ballroom at the Washington Hilton last week bounced off the same walls as when President Ronald Reagan was shot and nearly killed 45 years ago. But the reaction to the two events shows how much our culture has degraded. In 1981, the Academy Awards were postponed for 24 hours. When emcee Johnny Carson opened the broadcast by wishing Reagan well in his recovery, there was thunderous applause from the Hollywood audience. All those years later, two days before the attempt, liberal talk show host Jimmy Kimmel made a joke about the First Lady having…

A man from India reportedly dug up his sister’s body so he could prove to a bank that she was dead. The man, Jitu Munda, went to an Indian Overseas Bank branch on Monday to try to withdraw money from his dead sister’s account, according to CBS News. It’s not clear when the sister died. There was one problem. The bank said “withdrawals by a third party are not permitted without proper authorization,” meaning in short that Munda needed a death certificate before he could access his sister’s money. Evidently uninterested in obtaining one, Munda instead dug up his sister’s…
President Donald Trump’s early morning Truth Social message serves as a no-nonsense warning to Iran.

The U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday struck down a race-based redistricting map in Louisiana, ruling that the state’s second black-majority district violates the Constitution. The conservative majority ruled 6-3 that the map “is an unconstitutional gerrymander,” but stopped short of scrapping Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act. “Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 was designed to enforce the Constitution — not collide with it. Unfortunately, lower courts have sometimes applied this Court’s §2 precedents in a way that forces States to engage in the very race-based discrimination that the Constitution forbids,” Justice Alito wrote for the…

A New Jersey-based pro-life pregnancy center may proceed with its federal challenge to lawfare waged against it by the state’s Democrat attorney general, the Supreme Court unanimously ruled in a 25-page decision on Wednesday. As The Federalist previously reported, First Choice Women’s Resource Centers, Inc. v. Platkin came about when New Jersey’s Democrat-run government began investigating First Choice Women’s Resource Centers over seemingly baseless concerns that it was misleading its donors and misrepresenting its services. This investigation culminated in then-Attorney General Matthew Platkin’s office issuing First Choice a subpoena in an attempt to strong-arm the nonprofit into doxxing its donors…

In a 6-3 decision Wednesday, the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that racial gerrymandering is unconstitutional, significantly limiting the ability of states to use race as the predominant factor in redistricting. The Court ruled in Louisiana v. Callais that Louisiana’s congressional map, which created a second majority-black district, is unconstitutional under Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, which prohibits voting practices that discriminate on the basis of race. “Because the Voting Rights Act did not require Louisiana to create an additional majority-minority district, no compelling interest justified the State’s use of race in creating SB8, and that map is an unconstitutional…
