Environmental and religious groups are taking Georgia regulators to court after they approved a utility company’s energy expansion.

With Kim Leadbeater’s Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill now set to fail, supporters of assisted suicide are preparing a renewed effort to push the fatally flawed Bill through Parliament in its next session. According to Sky News, backers of Leadbeater’s bill believe they can recruit around 200 MPs willing to reintroduce the proposal in the next parliamentary session, after it stalled in the House of Lords. The bill could return if sympathising MPs come high in the private members bill ballot. This ballot is reserved for backbench MPs, not Government ministers.

Two illegal aliens in Fairfax County, Virginia pleaded guilty to murder and could be back out on the street in three years, thanks to a sweetheart deal given them by a progressive prosecutor known for going easy of criminals who illegally enter the U.S. “The reason why the two men will be serving five years behind bars for murder is that Fairfax County Commonwealth’s Attorney Steve Descano’s office offered them a generous plea deal. And both men took it,” WJLA’s Nick Minock reported Thursday: “Descano’s Office offered Maldin Anibal Guzman and Wis Alonso Sorto-Portillo a plea deal which included a…
In this episode, I present the resurrection of Jesus the Christ, and then look at how it impacted the Old Testament saints as well as the New Testament saints, and how it impacts us today.

The Iranians said they’ve gifted a total of 30 oil tankers to pass through the Strait of Hormuz, and according to Trump, they don’t fundamentally disagree with most of the items on his 15-point demand list.

They are determined to impose their anti-fossil-fuel agenda on the rest of us and hammer our living standards.

WASHINGTON (CN) — Hours after President Donald Trump ousted Attorney General Pam Bondi, questions swirl about who the White House will tap to become the government’s new top law enforcement official.But no matter who the president nominates to fill that role, they’ll have to survive a contentious confirmation process in the Senate. And the success of that nominee could hinge on just one man: North Carolina Senator Thom Tillis.Tillis, who announced last year he would retire at the end of his term, has vowed to call balls and strikes on the Trump administration with his remaining time on Capitol Hill.…

President Donald Trump made a compelling case that other countries need to “step up when it comes to the Strait of Hormuz,” Tommy Pigott, principal deputy spokesman at the U.S. Department of State said during an interview on Breitbart News Daily. When asked why this responsibility of opening up the Strait of Hormuz has fallen on America, Pigott pointed to remarks President Donald Trump made during his speech Wednesday night. “As the President explained last night, it shouldn’t,” Pigott said Thursday. “We have seen through this operation that the Iranian Air Force is really hurt; their missile launchers are decimated;…
British authors Joanna Brien and Ida Fairbairn wrote a book called Pregnancy and Abortion Counseling.

California First Lady Jennifer Siebel Newsom offered up some parenting tips recently that are every bit as cringeworthy as you’d expect them to be. Siebel Newsom, who once dated actor George Clooney and accused sexual predator Harvey Weinstein of raping her, shares four children with Gov. Gavin Newsom, and her idea of raising boys includes giving them dolls and changing the pronouns of male heroes in storybooks. “I have really been intentional about raising my boys to understand that caregiving is a male responsibility,” Siebel Newsom smugly shared. “So, for example, giving them dolls when they’re little so that they…

The U.S. economy added 178,000 workers to payrolls in March, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Friday. That’s three times the consensus forecast of 59,000 and a sharp reversal from February’s revised decline of 133,000, which was dragged down by a large healthcare strike. But the headline number understates just how strong the report really is. The break-even rate of employment growth — the number of new workers needed on payrolls each month to hold the unemployment rate steady — has collapsed to near zero, according to converging analyses from the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas and the Federal Reserve…

Op-ed views and opinions expressed are solely those of the author. One of the basic tenets of the government is to provide for the safety and security of its citizens. Sadly, too many elected officials have forgotten this basic premise, and innocent Americans are dying as a result of incompetence, misplaced allegiance and, of course, Trump Derangement Syndrome.

These terrible incidents are just the ones that gained national attention; there are so many others that…
Across the country, a quiet but consequential shift is underway. From California to Florida to Georgia — and with major policy pushes in Texas and North Dakota — policymakers and citizen groups are advancing sweeping property tax reforms and constitutional amendments aimed at lowering housing costs and protecting homeowners. Ballot initiatives already being circulated for 2026 could dramatically reshape how Americans pay for—and keep—their homes.This is not happening in a vacuum. It is a direct response to a growing crisis: home ownership in America is becoming unaffordable for too many families. With mortgage rates still elevated and home prices stubbornly high, first-time buyers are increasingly locked…

Final Warning: This Reckless War is the Trigger for the Dollar’s Final Collapse War as Economic Arson I’ve spent years analyzing the fragile web of global finance, watching as the pillars of the dollar’s dominance were quietly dismantled. Now, in 2026, we stand at the precipice. The reckless escalation of war — the imminent ground invasion of Iran under Operation Epic Fury — is not merely a geopolitical catastrophe. In my view, it is the calculated detonation device for the final collapse of the U.S. dollar. This action will sever the Strait of Hormuz, cutting off the West’s energy lifeline…

The Global Hydrocarbon Infrastructure is Being Demolished As I write this in March 2026, the world is witnessing a terrifying spectacle. The United States and Israel have launched ‘Operation Epic Fury,’ a massive joint military assault on Iran.

[2] Global energy markets are in chaos, prices are spiking, and experts warn this crisis has already surpassed the severity of the 1970s oil shocks. [2] American supercarriers sit impotently outside the Strait, unable or unwilling to challenge Iran’s control, a stark symbol of a fading era of…
The state and federal murder trials of Luigi Mangione, accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, have been postponed until fall 2026. The delays highlight the logistical and constitutional complexities of dual sovereign prosecutions for the same crime. Federal Judge Margaret Garnett cited the need to avoid prejudice from the state case, stating the federal proceeding is “at the mercy” of the state timeline. Prosecutors opposed the delay, citing a public interest in a speedy trial and concerns over witness availability. Mangione faces life in prison if convicted in either trial, after judges previously removed death penalty and terrorism-related charges.…
