In Overath, Germany, this year’s Christmas market is dead because of fears of Muslim violence. A terrible, unmistakable capitulation.

Overath and Kerpen, both citing unaffordable anti-terror security measures after heightened risks from Islamist threats. Magdeburg’s market faced permit denial initially over an inadequate safety plan

The Magdeburg Christmas market in Germany has been cancelled over security concerns after last December’s car-ramming terror attack, which killed six people…

According to Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson, “Access to affordable, healthy food is a basic human right.” This is why she refuses to “allow giant grocery chains to stomp all over communities and close stores at will.” She claims this will “leave behind food deserts.” This is why she will “explore public option grocery stores.”

There are so many things wrong with this statement that it’s hard to know where to begin.

Firstly, I don’t ever recall a time in human history when the government was able to adequately provide food for the entire population. Do you? I didn’t think so. That’s because whenever the government attempts to take over the food supply, people always seem to starve. Weird how that is.

What will never be fully comprehensible is why there are so many people who hate everything about America yet still wish to live here. Not only that, but they seem determined to turn it into the countries they ran away from. Something does not add up.

Dearborn Mayor Abdullah Hammoud claims he “disavows the term melting pot” because his city is not a “soup where everything looks the same.” They are a “salad bowl,” if you will, where “the lettuce is lettuce, the tomatoes are tomatoes, and the cucumbers are cucumbers, and they all complement each other.”

Incoming New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani doubled down on his promise to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on an international arrest warrant that is not recognized in U.S. law, setting up a potential act of rebellion against federal authority.

The mayor-elect, a self-styled socialist, has repeatedly pledged that if elected mayor, he would direct the New York Police Department (NYPD) to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu should he visit the city. Mamdani has claimed that he has an obligation to do so in order to adhere to “international law,” particularly by honoring an International Criminal Court (ICC) warrant against Netanyahu stemming from the conflict in Gaza.

A new warning sign just flashed for anyone paying attention to the rapid, coordinated shift toward synthetic “meat” and “dairy” as the global food supply is about to be flooded with a disturbing new product.

Beginning early next year, a new product will hit supermarket shelves that looks like milk, pours like milk, and is marketed as “real dairy” but was never touched by a cow.

The product, created by Israeli startup Remilk, is a fully lab-produced “milk” manufactured using genetically engineered microbes.

According to The Times of Israel, Remilk has partnered with Gad Dairies to launch two variants: 3% fat “milk” and a vanilla-flavored version under the brand New Milk.

Pope Leo has come out in support of a rare special message released by the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops in recent days that lamented a “climate of fear and anxiety around questions of profiling and immigration enforcement.”

Without mentioning U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration by name, 216 of 224 bishops voted in favour of releasing the message that condemned the “vilification” of migrants and expressed concerns over the fear and anxiety immigration raids have sown in communities, as well as the denial of pastoral care to migrants in detention centres.

Speaking to reporters late Tuesday as he left the papal country house south of Rome, Leo urged Catholics and all people of goodwill to listen to what they said.

“I think we have to look for ways of treating people humanely, treating people with the dignity that they have,” he said. “If people are in the United States illegally, there are ways to treat that. There are courts, there’s a system of justice.”

Every so often, physics delivers a discovery that feels as if it has stepped straight out of science fiction. The latest breakthrough is exactly that. Scientists have revealed a new kind of time crystal, an exotic phase of matter that repeats its structure not only in space but in time. Unlike ordinary crystals such as diamonds or salt, which arrange their atoms in fixed repeating patterns, a time crystal oscillates in a stable rhythm all on its own.

Now researchers have taken this concept a step further by uncovering a time crystal that behaves in an entirely unexpected way, challenging long-held assumptions about order, motion and the nature of time itself.A peer-reviewed study published in Nature Materials explains how time crystals can break both spatial and temporal symmetries, creating stable patterns that persist even under continuous disturbance.

This research provides the theoretical backbone for the newly reported discovery, which introduces a time crystal with a structured but non-repeating temporal pattern. Instead of ticking like a perfectly predictable clock, it displays a rhythm that shifts, evolves and yet remains ordered over long time periods. This opens an entirely new frontier in understanding how matter can organise itself across time.

“Sacred spaces should not be used to promote activities in violation of international law.”

Socialist New York City mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani is facing backlash after his team criticized an event at a synagogue on Manhattan’s Upper East Side after it was targeted by anti-Israel activists who shouted slogans including “Death to the IDF” and “Globalize the intifada.”

According to the Jerusalem Post, the Palestinian Assembly for Liberation protesters outside Park East Synagogue, which was hosting an event by Nefesh B’Nefesh, an organization that assists North American Jews moving to Israel, drew swift condemnation from Jewish leaders and elected officials, who described the group’s rhetoric as antisemitic and threatening.

We have reported on the massive fraud in Minnesota’s Feeding Our Future program. That fraud has run into the millions, and the biggest frauds are among Minneapolis’s Somali community. More than $40 million was bilked from Minnesota taxpayers.

Now, a new fraud scandal is making the Feeding Our Future thing look like small potatoes. In this new fraud case, Somali immigrants in Minnesota are suspected of deliberately ripping off a Minnesota-based, HHS-funded “Housing Stabilization Service” program – and much of that money is going back to Somalia, in large part to help fund the notorious Al-Shabaab terrorist group.

Minnesota is drowning in fraud. Billions in taxpayer dollars have been stolen during the administration of Governor Tim Walz alone. Democratic state officials, overseeing one of the most generous welfare regimes in the country, are asleep at the switch. And the media, duty-bound by progressive pieties, refuse to connect the dots.

President Donald Trump raised the prospect of War Secretary Pete Hegseth and military courts looking into Democrats the president has accused of sedition for their appeal to active service members and intelligence operatives to defy illegal orders from their commander in chief.

Trump made the comments during an interview with Fox News Radio’s Brian Kilmeade on Friday, but the president did underscore that he doesn’t “know for a fact” that Hegseth is investigating the matter.

“I think Pete Hegseth is looking into it. I know they’re looking into it militarily. I don’t know for a fact, but I think the military is looking into it, the military courts.”

Trump has seized on a video this week made by Democratic lawmakers who served either in the military or the country’s national security apparatus, in which they implore military and intelligence personnel to disobey orders they allege are unlawful without specifying which ones.

(LifeSiteNews) — Gunmen have raided a Catholic school in Nigeria and abducted over 50 children as the violence against Christians continues.

In the early hours of Friday morning, the armed attackers arrived at St. Mary’s Catholic Primary and Secondary Schools in Papiri, Niger State. According to a statement by the Diocese of Kontagora, which confirmed the attack, the assault happened “between 1:00 a.m. and 3:00 a.m.” A security guard was shot and badly injured in the process.

The diocese “strongly condemned the attack and expressed deep concern for the safety of the kidnapped children and their families.”

According to Nigerian TV station Arise News, 52 schoolchildren were kidnapped by the attackers. The BBC reports that St. Mary’s is a mixed-sex boarding school.

Christian university in Southern California denies pro-life club official recognition

A student at Vanguard University is speaking out after campus leaders refused to officially recognize a pro-life club she sought to launch at the private, Christian institution in Southern California.

At the start of the semester, Linda-Isabella Rendon began the process of seeking official recognition for a Students for Life of America chapter, writing on the organization’s website she was “shocked that they did not have a pro-life group or similar student organization, which compelled me to start one myself.”

An officially recognized campus club receives perks such as funding, advertising on campus, and permission to book rooms for events.

The Women’s Hockey Association of Minnesota appears to be for women in name only.

The league, which touts itself as the largest women’s hockey league in the world, follows USA Hockey guidelines, which allow for the participation of men.

‘Pretending it’s OK for men to play in a women’s league insults women’s sports.’

USA Hockey allows athletes to “participate on a team that is consistent with their gender identity” in order to allegedly “help maintain a fair and safe environment.”

The policy, issued in 2021, adds that “gender identity” refers to one’s “internal psychological identification as a male or female, both, neither, or anywhere along the gender spectrum.”

The Germans targeted German Jews and academics. But the ummah (the worldwide Muslim community) is targeting Jews everywhere including the United States, taking a new holocaust to a global level.

Pure evil.

The kill threats, $100,000 bounties against Jewish academics labels Israeli researchers as criminals and military collaborators, publishes their personal details and offers cash rewards for attacks; officials say they have never seen such direct incitement or a campaign this detailed targeting academics.

Israeli universities and security officials are confronting what they describe as an unprecedented threat after an anonymous website published explicit calls to kill dozens of senior Israeli academics and offered cash rewards for attacks.

A vote to condemn the “horrors of socialism” passed on a mostly party-line vote Friday, with 98 Democrats voting against it and 199 Republicans voting for it.

The bill passed 285-to-98. No Republicans voted against the bill, although 20 Republicans did not vote.

On the Democrat side, it was far from unanimous, with 86 members voting in favor, and 98 against. Two Democrats voted “present” and 27 did not vote.

The resolution, sponsored by Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar, R-Fla., reads, “socialism has repeatedly led to famine and mass murders, and the killing of over 100,000,000 people worldwide,” and recognizes “many of the greatest crimes in history were committed by socialist ideologues.”

There’s a great, laughable irony about a group that claims to want to save the planet, and is willing to resort to thuggery when anyone questions their methods. But the climate-panic group Extinction Rebellion (ER) is one such group. At a recent meeting in Hampton, United Kingdom, an event called “Climate Reality – What’s causing climate change and what can we do about it,” one attendee stood up and questioned not the ER message, but their methods.

 

What happened then? They silenced him, threw him out, and beat him up.

After the usual cycle of ‘doom, death’ and despair’ followed by the standard ‘if we just spend a lot of money on renewable energy, we’ll save the planet’ narrative the floor was opened for questions.

A few questions in, a gentleman stood up and said that while he agreed with the urgency of the message, the tactics of Extinction Rebellion alienate people rather than persuading them. The panel began interrupting him, urging him to “ask his question or stop” in a rather patronising tone. He calmly continued, explaining how such tactics damage public support. This clearly irritated one of the speakers, a schoolteacher-turned-activist who had moments earlier described how “exciting and fun” activism could be.

“A parent confirmed that their child was explicitly told there are ‘right’ and ‘wrong’ answers, and that the assignment will affect their grade,” the Thursday post stated.

The Zohran is meeting with President Donald Trump today. It’s not until 3:00 this afternoon, and I’ll be well into the bourbon by then, but I’m sure the content that comes from the meeting will be delightful if you ignore the fact that the incoming mayor of the most important city on the planet is a commie theater kid. My gut says he gets Zelenskyy’d as he attempts to lecture Trump on international law and how there will be no more deportations under The Zohran’s eye.

I hope they discuss economics, because The Zohran gave a clue on how he is going to get money for his free buses in New York City. All it will take is for them to raise taxes on everyone else in New York STATE so that he gets the cash.

REPORTER: How are you getting the $700M to make the buses free if the Governor is not for raising taxes?

THE ZOHRAN: Through the raising of the state’s corporate tax.”

REPORTER: But she said no…

THE ZOHRAN: The most important fact is that we fund it, not the question of how we do it.

Cornell grad student union adds resistance ‘by any means’ to anti-Israel resolution

Cornell University’s graduate student union has added support for Palestinian armed resistance “by any means necessary” to a resolution calling for a boycott of Israel that the union will discuss on Thursday.

The union, Cornell Graduate Students United — UE Local 300, in October issued a draft of the resolution to members, titled “International solidarity with the Palestinian liberation struggle.”

The resolution said Cornell was rooted in “US settler-colonialism and an imperial project of white supremacy bent on profiting from the erasure of the Palestinian people.”

The construction industry’s use of illegal labor force has been revealed by the Trump administration’s “Operation Charlotte’s Web” in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Construction has reportedly come to a near halt in Charlotte as the Trump administration’s immigration campaign remains in full swing.

Reports of stymied construction projects have flooded social media during the first week of the immigration enforcement operation.

A man who claims to be a subcontractor in the construction industry in Charlotte posted a video blasting ICE for chasing off the workers he usually encounters every day.

In other social media posts, Mexican restaurants are closing up shop since so many illegals are no longer out and about in the town. In one, an ice cream shop owner said he has told his Hispanic employees to stay home.

Another man hyperbolically complained that “no one is safe,” despite that immigration agents are only seeking lawbreaking illegals.

One man working at a Charlotte barber shop told agents he became a naturalized U.S. citizen ten years ago, but can’t say it to the agents in English.

From our watchtower here at the Media Research Center, we have identified a recent and nasty trend emerging from the Elitist Media. It’s called “Trumpwashing”: that phenomenon wherein the media withhold covering some Democrat scandal until President Donald Trump opines on it, with President Trump’s statement being covered as if it were the scandal, rather than the underlying and until now suppressed Democrat event.

The latest instance of a Trumpwashed scandal: the video, published by six Democrat members of Congress calling on members of the Armed Forces and Intelligence Agencies to disobey unspecified “illegal” orders. The media held their tongues on the video until Trump spoke up, and the rest is history.

As an evidentiary sample, we submit for your consideration the totality of the Trumpwashed report aired on NBC Nightly News (click “expand” to view full transcript):

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky vowed Friday that he would not “betray” his country as he publicly pushed back against a U.S. plan that would end the war on terms widely seen as favorable to Russia, even at the risk, he said, of alienating Washington.

In an address, Zelensky said he would present “arguments” and “alternatives” to the 28-point proposal drafted by the Trump administration, which stunned Kyiv and its European partners when details leaked earlier this week.

That draft plan, seen by AFP, would reportedly require Ukraine to cede territory, drastically reduce the size of its military, pledge never to join NATO and hold snap elections. Russia, meanwhile, would not only be allowed to keep the land its forces have seized but also receive sanctions relief and rejoin the G8.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) has publicly beclowned herself for the second time in a week by falsely accusing several Republican politicians of taking money from “somebody named Jeffrey Epstein.”

“Folks who also took money from somebody named Jeffrey Epstein, as I had my team dig in very quickly—Mitt Romney, the NRCC, Lee Zeldin, George Bush, McCain-Palin,” Crocket declared on the House floor on Tuesday.

Federal campaign finance records show that Epstein donated primarily to Democrats, including two current sitting members of Congress, Delegate Stacy Plaskett (D-V.I) and Senator Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), both of whom have retained the donations, despite scrutiny.

Even worse, newly released documents from Epstein’s estate include text messages between Plaskett and Epstein that show he advised her on what questions to ask President Trump’s former attorney Michael Cohen during a 2019 congressional hearing.

MOSCOW, November 21. /TASS/. Russia will react to the United States’ peace plan for Ukraine once it sees something concrete, refusing to comment on “conflicting” reports about it that have come out in the media, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said.

“I think that commenting on leaks that are contradictory and contain conflicting elements is pointless. When we have some official information, when we receive it via a relevant channel, naturally, we will always be open to work,” she told reporters.

“For several days now, Western media outlets have been releasing various leaks and drafts – whatever this could be called – with different details, in different sequences, under various labels,” she said, referring to the US plan. “We have official channels of communication with Washington. The Foreign Ministry has received no information, plans or drafts.”

In an astonishing victory, 34-year-old state legislator Zohran Mamdani won New York City’s mayoral election. Defeating former state Governor Andrew Cuomo, who enjoyed strong backing from US President Donald Trump and the political establishment, Mamdani became the city’s first Muslim immigrant mayor and its youngest in more than a century. The democratic socialist’s victory sent shock waves through national politics, emboldening progressives across the country to run and to win on agendas as unapologetically ambitious as the moment demands.

Campaigning across the city, Mamdani reached out to various social groups, including African Americans, Muslims, Jews, Hindus, East Africans and South Asians, and especially the youth, many of whom had grown politically disengaged after the Democratic Party’s demoralising performance in recent years. He brought people back into the political process, mobilising voters who otherwise might have stayed home.
