The Elitist Media are known for hiding significant news that doesn’t align with their liberal agenda or generally naked Democrats look bad. Their ongoing omission of new allegations against U.S. Rep Eric Swalwell (D-CA) stands as the latest example.

Per the Free Beacon:

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D., Calif.) will “soon” face sexual harassment allegations from a number of “credible women,” including former staffers, according to the leader of the left-wing advocacy group Gen-Z for Change, who said she has been “personally working” with the women to expose a “pattern of manipulation and abuse of power.”

The group’s executive director, Cheyenne Hunt, detailed the impending allegations against Swalwell, who is running for governor of California, in a series of social media posts. Her original video was posted to Instagram in late March and cited a text from a woman who wrote, “You know Eric Swalwell has slept with many of his interns and makes them all sign NDAs so they don’t speak up, right? And when I was 19 he tried hitting on me and sliding into my DMs and I have so many other friends that have similar experiences with him.” Hunt said the message was “not an anomaly” but “part of a pattern.”

The FBI Cyber Division warned organizations and companies that Iran-affiliated hackers are targeting U.S. critical infrastructures.

The warning comes hours before the 8 PM ET deadline President Donald Trump gave Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz.

“Iran-affiliated cyber actors are targeting operational technology devices across US critical infrastructure, including programmable logic controllers (PLCs),” the division wrote on X. “These attacks have led to diminished PLC functionality, manipulation of display data and, in some cases, operational disruption and financial loss.”

Canada has taken a major step toward enforcing chilling restrictions on religious expression after lawmakers passed controversial legislation that will criminalize quoting parts of the Bible under the globalist government’s “hate speech” laws.

Members of Parliament approved Bill C-9, dubbed the “Combatting Hate Act,” in a 186–137 vote.

The ruling Liberal Party and left-wing Bloc Québécois MPs are pushing the measure through.

This week, Planned Parenthood released its 2025 annual report. In recent years, these reports have taken on additional significance. That is because congressional Republicans have demonstrated their willingness to stop federal taxpayer dollars from going to Planned Parenthood. Indeed, this year’s report should bolster pro-life efforts to defund Planned Parenthood for the upcoming fiscal year. That is because, once again, this report provides very solid evidence that Planned Parenthood continues to prioritize abortion at the expense of real health-care services.

As Virginia voters take part in a closely contested redistricting referendum, Gov. Abigail Spanberger is heading toward the final tally with historically low approval numbers.

For the first time since the 1990s, a sitting Virginia governor is polling below historical norms.

According to Washington Post polling, Spanberger’s approval rating stands at 47%—13 points lower than the average approval rating for Virginia governors and below a majority.

Far-left activists shouted through bullhorns on Easter Sunday as part of their ongoing harassment campaign against a St. Paul, Minnesota, church that allegedly employs an Immigration and Customs Enforcement official as a minister. The Easter Sunday campaign concluded in one arrest, although a judge already threw out the charges.

Anti-ICE protesters have targeted Cities Church in the Twin Cities since January, when a mob, joined by former CNN personality Don Lemon, disrupted the church worship service at the Baptist church. The activists disrupted the service because they alleged an assistant pastor is also a local ICE official who is overseeing efforts to remove violent illegal immigrants from the area.

The left won’t hesitate to bend over backwards for a man who was killed after he resisted arrest and took enough fentanyl to kill a horse. You would expect, at the very least, that they would honor an innocent woman killed after obtaining refuge in this country as a result of the war in Ukraine. The problem with doing that, though, is that they would have to admit leftist “restorative justice” policies allowed a psycho with a painfully long rap sheet to enter back into society, where he then, subsequently, killed an innocent woman riding on the bus. So, rather than do the morally superior thing, the mayor of Providence has called to take down the mural honoring this victim, because he claims it is divisive.

“We are also aware of reports that Ms. Castillo expressed hesitancy to undergo euthanasia in her final hours, but that these indications were ignored.”

The Trump administration is set to investigate the euthanasia death of 25-year-old Noelia Castillo, who was a sexual-assault survivor. After she was placed in a group home as a teenager she was gang raped by African migrants, leading her to try to take her own life by jumping from a building. She ended up paralyzed and eventually sought suicide. Her family tried to stop her and when that failed they took legal action.

The State Department directed the US Embassy in Madrid to probe how Spanish law enforcement handled repeated sexual attacks against Castillo before her death, according to a report from the New York Post citing a leaked diplomatic cable. “We are deeply concerned by allegations that Ms. Castillo was repeatedly sexually assaulted while under state care and that no perpetrators have been brought to justice,” the cable read.

“We are also aware of reports that Ms. Castillo expressed hesitancy to undergo euthanasia in her final hours, but that these indications were ignored,” the cable added. “This case raises serious concerns about the application of Spain’s euthanasia law, particularly in cases involving psychiatric conditions and non-terminal suffering.”

This is a spectacular screw-up—and it implicates the The New York Times newsroom top to bottom. A The New York Times headline ignorantly called NATO the “North American Treaty Organization,” triggering widespread online ridicule and criticism of editorial standards. The error spread quickly on social media, with users calling it embarrassing and questioning newsroom competence. The paper acknowledged the mistake and said a correction would appear in the next print edition.

Critical minerals are mined all over the world but the majority of the supply ends up passing through China. For a broad range of key metals and minerals, China is either the largest miner, the dominant refiner, or both. This is true for rare earths, lithium, cobalt, graphite, nickel, and many other metals and minerals that are essential to defense, energy and high-tech applications.

It is less about where ores are dug out of the ground and more about where they are turned into usable components. In other words, Chinese processing plants are essentially the gatekeepers of global supply.

The Israeli government instituted a policy prohibiting Christian Palestinian teachers who live in the West Bank from working in any of the 15 Christian schools in Jerusalem in a move that threatens to weaken the two-millennia presence of Christians in the Holy City.

School principals in Jerusalem recently received letters from the Israeli Ministry of Education stipulating that beginning in September they are required to only hire teachers who reside in the city and hold Israeli-issued qualifications.

The March 10 directive comes in the wake of a bill approved last July by the Education Committee of the Knesset (the Israeli parliament) aimed at prohibiting Palestinian teachers who earned their degrees at institutions in the West Bank from teaching in Israel or the occupied East Jerusalem.

To make America great again, this country must stop all gender transitions for children. Not only is this morally reprehensible, but it is the antithesis of media care. Despite this being common sense, sense is not so common among the left. This is why the federal government did what needed to be done. Many hospitals acquiesced not because it was the right thing to do, but because they feared losing federal funding. One Minnesota hospital, however, was not phased by this pressure and has decided to resume these Frankenstein procedures, despite the government mandates.

In a decision released this morning, Finland’s supreme court voted 3-2 to convict a bishop and a member of parliament for publishing a pamphlet explaining Christian theology about sexual differences. The decision could tacitly ban orthodox Christianity in Finland by banning Christians from speaking about what the Bible clearly says.

Bishop Juhana Pohjola and Member of Parliament Paivi Rasanen face thousands of euros in fines and their challenged Christian speech “removed from public access and destroyed,” the court ordered, unless they successfully appeal to the European Court of Human Rights. If they appeal, the case could affect speech and conscience rights worldwide.

Some of the legal experts who have battled the abortion ideology and its related industry across the United States for years are warning that in the wake of Dobbs, which returned regulation of the industry to individual states, some of those are now moving into territory that is causing alarms.

That would be the move toward infanticide.

Officials at the American Center for Law and Justice have posted a warning about the “troubling trend.”

“In the wake of Dobbs and the overturning of Roe v. Wade, the abortion debate obviously didn’t end – it intensified and shifted to the state level. Now, radical-Left state legislatures are emboldened, believing they have a license to advance bills that, under the guise of ‘reproductive freedom,’ are quietly dismantling protections for babies – even after birth.”

Pro-abortion to the gills, the Guttmacher Institute this week reported that there were a whopping  22% fewer abortions in Iowa in 2025 than there were in 2024. The welcomed drop (to pro-lifers) in abortions was from 3,380 to 3,050.

2025 was the first full year Iowa’s “Fetal Heartbeat Act”–Senate File 579– was in effect.

“The data include numbers from Iowans who got abortions at one of the state’s brick-and-mortar clinics and through telehealth appointments, including those who received abortion pills from out-of-state medical providers in states with shield laws,” according to Natalie Krebs of Iowa Public Radio.

Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte has referred New York’s anti-Trump Democrat Attorney General Letitia James to federal prosecutors over two cases involving possible homeowner’s insurance fraud, according to a report.

Pulte sent referral letters on Wednesday to federal prosecutors in Florida and Illinois.

The referral alleges that James made false statements on insurance-related applications tied to properties in those states.

Kansas lawmakers overrode Gov. Laura Kelly’s veto of the CARE Act, protecting pregnancy resource centers from abortion mandates and preserving their freedom to offer life-affirming care to women and families.


The Kansas Legislature last week overrode Gov. Laura Kelly’s veto of House Bill 2635, which expands protections for pregnancy resource centers and limits certain forms of state regulation over their services.

As the global press grappled with a string of gut-wrenching, dystopian euthanasia stories – the latest of which is the killing of a young Spanish gang rape victim – the Canadian press is still publishing overtly eugenicist propaganda.

On March 25, CTV published a story on the impending death – now carried out – of John Maloney, who was suffering from partial blindness. The headline: “3 days before his medically assisted death, this Alberta man is reflecting on ‘his right to die.’”

The CTV suicide puff piece detailed John Maloney’s choice of music to serve as the soundtrack to his lethal injection; noted approvingly that Maloney, “[a]s a Christian,” was “preparing for his final moments” as “a practice in bodily autonomy,” and quotes Maloney as saying that although God forbids suicide, he thinks that God “gets it.” It is enough to make one shudder. (The press only quotes religiosity approvingly when it can be done in service of an anti-Christian agenda.)

Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins said a large swath of the country’s farmers will be unaffected this planting season, despite the rising fertilizer costs stemming from the Iran war.

“The good news is that about 80% of our farmers, actually, last fall locked in their fertilizer,” Rollins said to reporters outside the White House on Monday. “So as we’re moving into planting season, it’s only about 20% to 25% of our farmers that didn’t lock that in. We are working directly to ensure that we can get them what they need and it won’t bankrupt them.”

As the war moves into its second month, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’s chokehold on the Strait of Hormuz has led not only to higher oil prices but also higher fertilizer prices, as Persian Gulf-based companies face difficulty exporting their supplies through the closed-off strait.

The final round of polls in Peru ahead of Sunday’s upcoming presidential election indicate that conservative former first lady and former Senator Keiko Fujimori is slated to win in the first round of the vote.

Peru, a country that has had nine presidents in the last ten years, will hold presidential and legislative elections on April 12 — the first such electoral event since 2021. The presidential race follows a series of impeachments that began with the removal of Marxist former President Pedro Castillo in December 2022, followed by the impeachment of Dina Boluarte in October 2025 and the ouster of interim President Jose Jerí in February.

Who could have predicted that California’s massive minimum wage hike would have “negative consequences?” Well, RedState certainly did, along with everyone else who wasn’t a hard-left progressive.

The law, which mandated a $20 per hour minimum wage for fast food workers at franchises that have more than 60 locations in the Golden State, went into effect in April 2024. But wait, there’s more! The law created the Fast Food Council — and gave it the green light to impose further wage increases yearly until 2029, when the council’s authority runs out.

What are the effects of the law, AB 1228? UC Santa Cruz Economics Lecturer Stephen Owen decided to find out, and surprise, surprise:

“Based on what we’ve found, I think this legislation is a classic case of ‘no good deed goes unpunished,’” Owen said. “There are unintended consequences and knock-on effects, and overall, I think the results have definitely not been as positive as policymakers had been expecting.”

WASHINGTON, April 6 (Reuters)—The U.S. Supreme Court cleared the way on Monday for the Justice Department to move forward with dismissing a criminal case in which Steve Bannon, an influential ally of President Donald Trump, was convicted after defying a congressional subpoena.

Bannon was convicted by a jury in Washington in 2022 on two counts of contempt of Congress for failing to provide documents or testimony to a Democratic-led House of Representatives panel that investigated the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol by Trump supporters. The Supreme Court on Monday threw out a lower court’s decision to uphold Bannon’s conviction.

President Trump gave the Iranian regime until 8 pm tonight to agree to a ceasefire deal. He made it very clear that Iran is either going to disarm and open the Strait of Hormuz, or he will bomb the regime into submission.

Of course, the Left is melting down over this, calling the legitimate targeting of infrastructure “war crimes,” while they spent the past three years turning a blind eye to the actual war crimes committed by Hamas and the past 47 ignoring the terrorism Iran has carried out around the globe.
