Iranian Shahed 121 and Shahed 129 drones via Wikimedia Commons New U.S. intelligence assessments are raising serious questions about the outcome of the recent conflict with Iran, suggesting that despite weeks of intense military strikes and claims of its industrial base being ‘obliterated, Tehran has been able to rapidly rebuild key elements of its arsenal. The findings, according to various reports, complicate the strategic picture for Donald Trump, who now faces mounting pressure over whether to escalate the conflict again or risk losing whatever gains were achieved. According to multiple intelligence sources, Iran has been rebuilding its military capacity far…

Prosecutors stated that one of the stab wounds pierced his lung, ultimately causing him to choke on his own blood before he could receive emergency medical treatment. Court proceedings identified the suspect as Vickrum…

Police forces raided one of the largest cartel meth labs ever and made a historic seizure, while arresting three Mexican cartel members … in Nigeria. The raid exposes the growing expansion of Mexican cartels, which are developing partnerships with other criminal organizations worldwide. This week, Nigeria’s National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) announced the operation, which was the result of months of investigation and the revelation that Nigerian mobsters were working hand in hand with Mexican Cartels to operate the lab.

Americans will travel at least 50 miles from home between Thursday and Memorial Day Monday – a distance slightly higher than last year when gas prices were considerably lower, according to AAA. “Travel demand remains strong, and despite higher fuel prices, many people are prioritizing leisure travel during holiday breaks,” Stacey Barber, vice president of travel for AAA, said in a statement. The AAA domestic travel forecast expects 39.1 million people will travel by car, and 3.66 million will fly. While gasoline prices are higher, many people will have booked their flights earlier in the year when ticket prices were lower. If the forecast turns out…
Iran is in discussions with America’s Gulf ally Oman over a possible partnership to make vessels passing through the Strait of Hormuz pay a fee, but it’s not clear that it would be legal or that it would receive much support from countries using the waterway. Secretary of State Marco Rubio warned Friday that “no country” should accept any tolling system. “I don’t know of anyone in the world that should be in favor of a tolling system in an international waterway. That’s just not acceptable. It can’t happen,” Rubio told reporters, according to Fox News. Iran’s Persian Gulf Authority, a…

The Euthanasia Prevention Coalition (EPC) is seeking to intervene in the “emergency relief” court case that was launched by Dying with Dignity, Canada’s leading pro-euthanasia lobby group, to have an Ontario court approve death by medical homicide for Claire Brosseau who is living with mental illness alone. The May 4, 2026 Dying with Dignity press release stated that: Ms. Brosseau, Dr. Patricia Smith, and Dying With Dignity Canada, filed a court challenge with the Ontario Superior Court of Justice arguing that the exclusion of individuals living with grievous and irremediable mental illness from MAID eligibility is discriminatory.

If there is anyone in America who should avoid talking about weddings, it would have to be U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) — unfortunately for her, arrogance never knows when to shut up. Omar opted to weigh in on the media-created drama over whether President Donald J. Trump will attend his eldest son’s wedding this weekend in the Bahamas, suggesting that Trump is not much of a “family man” if he skips the wedding of his eldest son and namesake, Donald Trump Jr., and Palm Beach socialite Bettina Anderson. This comes from the Somali refugee who allegedly married her own…
The meat on your plate has to overcome a long line of barriers to get there, and those barriers limit what you can buy in ways that you might not have noticed. They also mean that your family might be eating mystery meat, sold as something different than the product you think you bought. If you drive to Justin Pettit’s California ranch, out in the hills on the east side of Bakersfield, you’ll pass truck after truck loaded with carrots. They stop just down the road, at processing plants run by food industry players like Bolthouse Farms. Chris Bray for…
John Thune and his fellow RINOs believe that only John Cornyn can win against the loony James Talarico. If true, why did they have to waste over $100 million to keep John Cornyn afloat during the primary against the man they say can’t win?

Sign up to see the future, today Can’t-miss innovations from the bleeding edge of science and tech Like data centers, automatic license plate readers (ALPRs) are incredibly unpopular with voters around the US. Plenty of local politicians are taking the hint, choosing to cancel controversial surveillance contracts with the granddad of ALPR companies, Flock Safety. In the tiny town of Bandera, Texas, however, one petty tyrant on the city council took personal offense after his fellow politicians voted 3-2 to immediately end their contract with Flock earlier this month. After voting, the dissenting councilmember, identified by 404 Media as Jeff…
Members of Congress are calling for the party’s Democratic National Committee (DNC) chair Ken Martin to resign following the release of the DNC’s 2024 election autopsy on Thursday. The comments by critical Democratic house members, quoted by Axios, were blunt: “He should resign,” Rep. Seth Moulton (D-Mass.) cited to Axios “his lack of leadership,” saying it is “utterly nuts it took us this long to release the autopsy.” Rep. Mark Pocan (D-Wisc.) said in response to a caller on a radio who argued Martin should be replaced, said, “I agree. … Having what we have right now is not doing…
Trump Order Increases Scrutiny Of Illegal Immigrants’ Banking Activity TYLER DURDEN Authored by Aldgra Fredly via The Epoch Times President Donald Trump signed an executive order on May 19 directing Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent to provide banks with an advisory on financial risks posed by individuals living in the country illegally. In his order, Trump urged banks to pay attention to credit risks posed by offering mortgage loans, car loans, credit cards, and other consumer credit products “to the inadmissible and removable alien population.” “Many of those borrowers face the possibility of the loss of wages due to removal or…
Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd let it be known that “teen takeovers” will not work out well for those involved in his Central Florida county, including neglectful parents. “That’s not going to work in Polk County,” Judd explained. “There’s a whole lot of laws that not only hold juveniles responsible, adults responsible, but parents responsible for your children’s conduct, to include juvenile curfews.” A “teen takeover” refers to a large gathering of teenagers who meet up in a public space such as a mall, beach, or city park and create mayhem. These flash-mob-like gatherings are often planned on social media…

The 2026 United States Counterterrorism Strategy identifies three primary terrorism threat categories: narcoterrorists and transnational gangs, legacy Islamist organizations, and violent left-wing extremists, including anarchists and Antifa. The Biden administration had previously identified white supremacists and anti-government extremists as the primary domestic-terrorism threat. Image by Gemini. President Trump signed the 2026 United States Counterterrorism Strategy on May 6, setting out the clearest statement yet of his administration’s national security priorities. The 16-page document frames counterterrorism as a core mission centered on protecting Americans from both foreign and domestic threats, and represents a structural reorganization of how the U.S. government identifies,…

About the only valuable lesson that the DNC “autopsy” contained yesterday was a warning against embracing the trans movement. The report noted the devastating impact of Donald Trump’s campaign ad that focused on Kamala Harris’ promise to fund sex-change surgeries for prisoners. Democrat pollsters considered it a checkmate: Advertisement Second, the pollsters were involved in discussions around the Trump attack ads – in particular the attack ad focused on the Vice President’s prior statements on transgendered Americans. They all recognized the attack as very effective, and felt the campaign was boxed – the ad was a video of her saying…

U.S. President Donald Trump wasted little time contemplating the end of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert after its final episode went to air Thursday night, characterising the departing host as being “like a dead person.” Trump, so often a Colbert target and obsession in equal measures, used his Truth Social platform to declare: “Colbert is finally finished at CBS. “Amazing that he lasted so long! No talent, no ratings, no life. “He was like a dead person. You could take any person off of the street and they would be better than this total jerk. “Thank goodness he’s finally…

Via Store Norske Leksikon Germany’s deportation system has been effectively crippled by the Syrian authorities, which are refusing to take back their own citizens by blocking the documents required for their return—an approach critics say reflects both political calculation and the nature of the country’s new leadership. According to multiple official reports, authorities in Damascus have halted the issuance of replacement travel documents for Syrians facing deportation. Without these papers, German authorities are unable to enforce removal orders in most cases. The result: an increasingly awkward and frustrating standoff. Thousands of migrants who are legally required to leave Germany remain…

In a surprise reversal of efforts to reduce the American military footprint in Europe, President Donald Trump said Thursday that the US will now be deploying an additional 5,000 troops to Poland. The declaration came just days after the Trump administration said it would withdraw 5,000 troops from Germany and follows the Pentagon’s abrupt cancellation of a large training exercise in Poland. The announcement also came on the heels of a Pentagon memo signed by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth temporarily halting the deployment of the 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team to Poland. Trump made the troop announcement in a social…

Consumer sentiment fell to the lowest level on record, pulled down by concerns over high gas prices and rising inflation. The University of Michigan’s index of consumer sentiment dropped to 44.8 in May, data released Friday showed. This was weaker than even the lowest projections in a survey of Wall Street economists by Econoday and lower than the preliminary May reading of 48.2. The final April reading was 49.8. May was the third consecutive monthly decline, with the index falling each month since the war with Iran began and gasoline prices began climbing to multi-year highs. Both the gauge of…
Americans’ confidence in the economy has dropped to a nearly four-year low, according to a Gallup poll released Friday. Gallup’s Economic Confidence Index sank to -45 in May, down from -38 in April.

We have been following here on TGP the effort by separatists in the Canadian province of Alberta. The oil-rich region has had enough of woke Canada’s Globalist policies, and gathered hundreds of thousands of signatures on the petition to hold a referendum on independence. After indigenous groups managed to block the process on Canadian courts, now it arises that Alberta will hold a referendum on whether the province should remain in Canada or else move ahead with a second – binding – vote on…
Retired Border Patrol Chief and former CBP Commander Gregory Bovino received the cold shoulder from liberal members of the Boone, North Carolina, community. Bovino says most in the Appalachian community have welcomed him, but he is not being received too kindly by those on the left in the town where he lived before joining the Border Patrol. The seasoned Border Patrol veteran provided Breitbart Texas with a video he took at a county government-run recreational facility where he was approached by a woman who he says was not very happy about seeing him in town, which he once called home.…
While even Democrats are mocking the 2024 “Autopsy” report that’s been publicly released by the Democratic National Committee, the most mockable passage may be about the state of the media, complete with the assumption that the media owners are primarily right-wingers (Page 40): STATE OF MEDIA & COMMUNICATION In the current media ecosystem, Republicans own and Democrats rent. Democracy pay for seasonal access to the networks, stations, platforms, and newspapers owned by Republicans or right-wing entities, to advertise and communicate with voters.

The Scarcity Deception: How to Break Free from Engineered Scarcity and Reclaim an Abundance Mindset Introduction: The Artificiality of Scarcity Scarcity is not a natural condition for things like energy, water, food and health. The scarcity we experience in our modern world is engineered by a small cabal of globalists who control the flow of energy, water, food, and health in order to keep people trapped in a cycle of dependence and learned helplessness. I have watched this system operate for decades, and I can tell you with certainty: abundance is our birthright. The universe operates on a principle of…
Why China Is Winning the AI Race The conventional narrative that America leads in artificial intelligence is dangerously mistaken. I believe it is not just wrong — it is a fantasy that prevents the United States from confronting a stark reality: China has already won the AI race, and the gap is widening every day. This is not about theft or espionage. China’s rapid AI advances stem from deep structural advantages: a massive pipeline of STEM graduates, coherent national planning, an expanding energy infrastructure, and a culture that rewards results rather than posturing. Meanwhile, America is hobbled by political dysfunction,…
Introduction: The Pivot That Made $7 Billion Appear Overnight On May 13, 2026, Ford launched Ford Energy, a wholly owned subsidiary with the goal of producing 20 GWh of annual stationary storage capacity starting with a $2 billion two-year investment. The stock surged 13.18% in a single session, adding roughly $7 billion in market cap [1]. That same CATL lithium iron phosphate (LFP) license that had been a political millstone around Ford’s neck for its EV ambitions suddenly became the supply-chain backbone of a grid-storage business. This is a masterstroke pivot that reveals how U.S. industrial policy punishes innovation and forces…
Why Used EV Batteries Are Currently the Cheapest Path to Off-Grid Energy Independence Used EV Batteries Can Have a Second Life as Home Power Storage The grid is cracking under the weight of AI data centers and geopolitical chaos. Nearly 50,000 residents in Lake Tahoe have been told their utility will stop providing power after next ski season because data centers get priority now [1]. Meanwhile, the Strait of Hormuz crisis has choked global oil and LNG flows, pushing diesel prices to record highs and exposing the fragility of centralized energy [2]. If you think your lights will stay on no matter…
Strait of Hormuz remains effectively blocked as NATO, Iran tangle over shipping security The Strait of Hormuz remains largely impassable months into the U.S.-Israeli war against Iran, with traffic at a fraction of pre-conflict levels. NATO is considering escorting ships through the strait if it remains closed by early July, though the proposal lacks unanimous support. Iran has launched a Bitcoin-based shipping insurance scheme to generate revenue and potentially establish a toll regime in the waterway. At least eight undersea telecom cables traversing the strait face potential Iranian interference, threatening global internet infrastructure. U.S.-Iran peace talks remain stalled, with both…
According to the book “The Great Divergence: Surviving the AI Revolution Without Losing Your Humanity,” centralized AI concentrates power in corporate giants like Google and OpenAI. They control closed algorithms, harvest private data and enforce censorship, creating a surveillance economy that strips users of recourse when their livelihoods or free speech are threatened. Decentralized AI, exemplified by Brighteon.AI, is open-source and community-governed, allowing anyone to inspect, modify and run their own systems without censorship or data theft, thereby fostering innovation and individual liberty. The battle mirrors the shift from mainframes to personal computers: centralized AI is the locked-down, elite-controlled mainframe…
Tense Trump-Netanyahu phone call suggests widening disagreement over Iran strategy A tense phone call on May 19 revealed a deep strategic split between the U.S. and Israel. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wants to immediately resume military strikes against Iran, while President Donald Trump is insisting on giving diplomacy a “few more days” before resorting to more bombing. Trump abruptly halted a planned new wave of American attacks on Iran, angering Israeli officials. He changed his mind after pressure from Gulf allies, who asked for more time for regional mediation. Israel fears Iran is using this diplomatic pause to regroup…
EIA Projects Data Centers Could Account for Up to 33% of Commercial Building Electricity Use by 2050 The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) released a report in April projecting that data center electricity consumption may reach 22% to 33% of total commercial building electricity use by 2050, according to Diana DiGangi of UtilityDive. The projection is based on modeled scenarios, including a high-demand case assuming exponential growth of AI servers without efficiency improvements beyond historical trends. In its 2026 Annual Energy Outlook, the EIA examined medium- and long-term demand, noting that data center servers alone accounted for an estimated 7%…
U.K. Eases Some Russian Oil Sanctions as Fuel Prices Soar The British government on Wednesday, May 20, waived sanctions on imports of diesel and jet fuel processed from Russian-origin crude in third countries, citing spiking fuel prices and supply security concerns, according to officials. Member of Parliament (MP) Dan Tomlinson, Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury, described the measure as “small and specific” and “time-limited,” designed to “protect the security of supply for really important foundational goods in our economy such as jet fuel,” as reported by BBC News [1]. The waiver comes amid average U.K. gasoline prices reaching their highest…
