There’s been a lot of discussion lately about the growing political and cultural divide between men and women, particularly among young people. Of course, the top-line narrative is that young men are becoming more conservative and turning to faith, while young women are growing more secular and liberal.
It’s a generalization to be sure, but it stems from what our culture has done to boys and girls. Society teaches our girls to be “grrrrrrl bosses” and be powerful, but it erases boys, medicating them to oblivion if they exhibit any sign of boyishness and teaching them that they’re less than valuable.
President Donald Trump on Tuesday threatened to file a lawsuit against Jerome Powell, the Chairman of the Federal Reserve, over renovations to the agency’s building.
In a post on Truth Social, the president lambasted Powell over his refusal to lower interest rates and his handling of the renovations to the Federal Reserve’s building.
“Jerome ‘Too Late’ Powell must NOW lower the rate,” Trump wrote. ‘Steve “Manouychin’ really gave me a ‘beauty’ when he pushed this loser. The damage he has done by always being Too Late is incalculable.”
Trump said he is “ considering allowing a major lawsuit against Powell to proceed because of the horrible, and grossly incompetent, job he has done in managing the construction of the Fed Buildings.”
A hypothetical matchup for governor of New York is tightening, according to results showing a MAGA congresswoman coming closer to striking distance against Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul.
If the election were held today, Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) would finish 14 points behind Hochul. However, the contest is 15 months away, and the gap represents the smallest since news first emerged that Stefanik was considering a bid for the state’s corner office.
The Siena College poll also asked about Lee Zeldin, President Trump’s energy secretary, who ran for governor of New York in 2021. He trails Hochul by 11 points, the smallest margin of any Republican candidate on record.
Judge Kendra Davis Briggs, a Biden-nominated associate judge for the D.C. Superior Court, denied the two Maryland juveniles’ requests for less restrictive detention conditions, according to the Washington Post.
The hearing follows the attack and carjacking targeting Coristine, 19, who goes by “Big Balls”, and Emily Bryant, his “significant other,” according to the filed police report of the incident. The carjacking occurred at 3:01 a.m. on Aug. 3 on the 1400 block of Swann Street NW.
Briggs presided over Monday’s hearing following President Donald Trump’s press conference in which he declared a “crime emergency” in Washington, federalized the Metropolitan Police Department, and mobilized the D.C. National Guard. Trump, who has repeatedly floated threats of federalizing the capital city, amped up his rhetoric against D.C. home rule after the attack against Coristine.
Inflation numbers released Tuesday beat economists’ expectations, sending one CNN anchor into an emotional tailspin as she attempted to explain away why President Donald Trump keeps winning each news cycle.
The July consumer price index (CPI) report showed that total energy prices fell 1.1% while food prices held steady and shelter ticked up 0.2%. Gas prices dropped 2.2%, an anomaly for a summer month where a record number of Americans travel during the summer holiday season, but also a reflection of a global economic slowdown.
On CNN, a morning anchor could barely stifle her surprise that Americans aren’t feeling a greater pinch at the grocery store after countless economic experts warned about the shock that President Trump’s tariffs would have on food prices.
Timm was convicted of criminal mischief in the tent case, later telling the court he felt it was his “duty” to take action against the Trump administration.
Gregory William Timm, now 32, first gained notoriety in 2020 when he plowed his vehicle into a Republican voter registration tent in Jacksonville, Florida. No one was injured, but the attack rattled volunteers and drew a sharp rebuke from then-President Donald Trump, who warned on social media: “Be careful tough guys who you play with!”
Scientists from Western Michigan University are pushing a plan to supposedly “fight climate change” that involves deliberately spreading a dangerous tick-borne disease that can trigger a lifelong fatal allergy to red meat.
As part of a plan to ensure that the United States complies with the globalist “Net Zero” agenda, the scientists argue that the public must be prevented from eating meat to dramatically reduce America’s cattle numbers.
They argue that cattle for the meat industry are causing “global warming” and must be eliminated.
To forcibly block the American people from eating meat, they propose using ticks to spread a disease among the public, which means people will die if they consume it.
Fairfax County Public School teachers have been helping students obtain abortions without the knowledge and consent of their parents, according to a whistleblower who recently exposed the scandal.
Now, the school district is claiming they just learned of the matter, even though the whistleblower, Centrevile High School teacher Zenaida Perez, had brought it to their attention on multiple occasions.
On a recent morning, Centreville High School teacher Zenaida Perez had a surprise visitor at the northern Virginia school where she teaches English as a second language: a high-powered lawyer investigating allegations that Perez had made public that a school social worker coaxed and funded a student’s 2021 abortion.
The Clifton school district’s superintendent, Michelle Reid, responded to the allegations the next day, claiming the school system had just “learned yesterday” about the potential scandal. Last Thursday, Reid emailed Centreville High School parents, again claiming that the district had taken “immediate action to engage an external independent investigator to get all the facts.”
Perez’s visitor was Mary McGowan, a retired lawyer from Blankingship & Keith, a longtime go-to firm for Fairfax County Public Schools. In a nearly three-hour interview, Perez told McGowan how she had blown the whistle seven times about the abortion scandal since May 2022, only to be ignored and then retaliated against.
President Trump has given his coveted endorsement in Georgia’s gubernatorial race.
In a post on Truth Social, President Trump announced he has endorsed Republican Lieutenant Governor Burt Jones.
Jones has been a firm Trump supporter for the past five years and was one of the few electors in Georgia who signed documents claiming Trump was the winner of the 2020 election.
Highly Respected and very popular Lieutenant Governor, Burt Jones, is running to be the next Governor of the Great State of Georgia, a very special place to me in that we had a BIG Presidential Election Win just eight short months ago,
As Texas Republicans push to redraw their congressional map along (district) lines more friendly to their party, a redistricting arms race has broken out between governors from both parties.
Texas state House Republicans’ redistricting plans could hypothetically flip as many as five Democrat-held congressional seats, an effort President Donald Trump supports.
In response, California Democrat Gov. Gavin Newsom is threatening a mid-decade redistricting of his own with a new ballot measure. On Monday, he penned a letter to President Donald Trump threatening to counter Republican districts if the Texas redistricting proceeded.
A Washington, D.C., city councilman accused of running a $156,000 bribery scheme is attacking President Donald Trump’s federal takeover of the city’s law enforcement.
The remarks from Trayon White come even as the Democrat lawmaker awaits trial on serious corruption charges.
White, 41, was sworn back into the council on Friday after winning a special election in July.
It comes months after he was expelled by his colleagues over his federal indictment.
A man with ties to an anti-Israel group called Direct Action Movement for Palestinian Liberation (DAMPL) was arrested in Massachusetts this week after vandalizing the Massachusetts Statehouse, as well as buildings at MIT. It was later discovered that he had also left improvised explosive devices on Boston Common.
How long will it take for Democrats to begin defending this pillar of society?
Member of pro-Palestinian group arrested after Massachusetts State House gate, steps vandalized with paint
A man associated with a pro-Palestinian group suspected in a series of vandalism acts targeting “prominent public institutions” faced charges Monday after the Massachusetts State House in Boston was vandalized with paint last month.
The Democrats’ media allies are arguing that President Donald Trump’s federal takeover of Washington, D.C., was unwarranted due to sharply decreasing crime rates. However, these reports do not provide a complete and accurate picture of the crime crisis in the area.
Since February, Trump has repeatedly warned D.C. leaders, including Mayor Muriel Bowser (D), that the federal government will intervene unless the nation’s capital is cleaned up.
‘Unfortunately, while Fake News journalists and politicians go out of their way to claim otherwise, the reality is that our nation’s capital is anything but safe.’
House Republicans defied many of the White House’s requests for cuts to programs that don’t align with the president’s America First agenda.
In May, the Office of Management and Budget submitted its fiscal year 2026 Discretionary Budget Request asking Congress to cut funding to programs accused of wasting taxpayer dollars pushing left-wing ideology abroad. While the House Appropriations Committee reduced or eliminated funding for some of the requests, many remain untouched or barely adjusted.
For instance, OMB requested the elimination of funding to the Asia Foundation and East-West Center, which previous administrations have used for advice on how to deal with China.
“You are playing with fire, risking the destabilization of our democracy, while knowing that California can neutralize any gains you hope to make.”
Governor Gavin Newsom is demanding that President Donald Trump respond to his threat to redraw the California congressional district maps, as President Donald Trump and others in the GOP have been pushing to redraw district maps in Texas and other states for Republicans to pick up a few more seats in Congress in the 2026 midterms.
Newsom wrote in the letter, dated August 11, “I am writing to ask you to call on the governor of Texas and other red states, who are acting on your request to draw new congressional maps through an unprecedented, mid-decade hyper-partisan gerrymander to rig the upcoming term elections, to stop those efforts.”
July’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) report indicates that inflation is cooling more than expected, providing a boost to stock futures and placing greater weight on the U.S. dollar.
Consumer prices rose 2.7 percent in the 12 months since last July. This matched the 12-month period since June and came in below the expected rate of 2.8 percent. Core CPI, often considered a more accurate reading of long-term trends in the economy, rose .3 percent and 3.1 percent from a year ago.
Shelter costs ticked up 0.2 percent, accounting for most of the index’s gain, according to the BLS. Food prices held steady, while energy prices dropped 1.1 percent.
As Planned Parenthood shutters brick-and-mortar facilities, it is driving clients to its new online services business model which increasingly relies upon telehealth – including the mailing of abortion pills. Its “Virtual Health Centers (VHCs)” are popping up across the country as part of a larger restructuring plan put in place years ago.
Key takeaways
In 2020, Planned Parenthood began offering telehealth services at all of its affiliates (49 at the time).
The pressure to remain financially solvent has driven Planned Parenthood to create and expand its Virtual Health Clinics as well.
Though multiple affiliates have announced the closures of brick-and-mortar facilities, many of those affiliates have also announced the expansion of their telehealth offerings and launch of Virtual Health Clinics.
(LifeSiteNews) — Human rights advocacy group ADF International has criticized a pro-abortion report that smeared pro-life groups as “religious extremists.”
The report was published in June by the European Parliamentary Forum for Sexual and Reproductive Rights (EPF), an EU-affiliated pro-abortion group funded by the Bill & Melina Gates Foundation and the George Soros’ Open Society Foundations.
The 158-page document is called “The Next Wave: How Religious Extremism Is Reclaiming Power” and claims that “[a] new alliance of religious extremists, far-right populists, and oligarchic funders” is trying to “launder religious extremism into mainstream governance through media, NGOs, political parties, and public institutions.”
No one has asked for Hillary Clinton’s opinion in a long time, but she continues to give it.
The failed presidential candidate and former secretary of state weighed in on President Donald Trump’s decision to restore law and order on the streets of Washington, D.C., slamming her former rival as “unhinged” and pointing to an overall drop in crime in the nation’s capital.
“As you listen to an unhinged Trump try to justify deploying the National Guard in DC, here’s reality: Violent crime in DC is at a 30-year low,” Clinton wrote on X shortly after Trump’s press conference, where he announced the federal takeover.
A single photo often tells a more compelling story than all the statistics in the world.
Monday on the social media platform X, reporter Nick Minock of WJLA in Washington, D.C., posted a photo of a note taped to a car window in the nation’s capital.
“There is nothing of value in this car,” the note read. “Only restaurant supplies + broken dreams. Plz don’t break the windows for the fifth time.”
Senator Chuck Schumer’s (D-NY) favorability rating in New York has dropped to its lowest level since Siena College began polling two decades ago. The longtime Senate Democrat leader is now receiving more negative than positive ratings statewide and, for the first time, among New York City voters.
A new Siena College poll shows Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) registering a 38 percent favorable rating and 50 percent unfavorable rating among New York voters, his lowest numbers recorded by the pollster since it began tracking his standing in February 2005. That marks a decline from June, when his favorability stood at 41 percent and unfavorable rating at 47 percent.
Token conservative and fan favorite of this season of CNN Scott Jennings came over the top rope on the Leftist mouthpieces on News Night with Abby Phillips over the upcoming Trump/Putin meeting. Here’s a brief summary of President Donald Trump’s record on peacemaking and peace keeping. President Trump is going to make Washington, D.C. safe again and the Left is…mad about it? Because they think crime is down? Let’s throw a little factcheck out there, see what we get. Holes in the ozone layer, melting ice caps, acid rain. The climate change/global warming/the end is nigh doomsayers have said it all. And for their next trick: the Great Barrier Reef. In the words of Donald J. Trump: Wrong.
Last week, Arizona State Sen. Analise Ortiz, vulgarly defended her actions after she admitted to alerting illegal immigrants to ICE presence in her district. The Glendale leftist, who also is accused of doxxing Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, shook her fist at “fascists and white supremacists in power in Arizona,” and claimed she had a right to interfere in federal immigration law enforcement activities.
“Yep. When ICE is around, I will alert my community to stay out of the area, and I’m not f***king scared of you nor Trump’s masked goons,” the lawmaker wrote in response to the conservative social media site Libs of TikTok outing Ortiz for “actively impeding and doxxing” ICE.
Yep. When ICE is around, I will alert my community to stay out of the area, and I’m not fucking scared of you nor Trump’s masked goons. https://t.co/rvlXctKhNV

U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro on Monday briefly morphed into the Fox News host whose rapier-like response sent liberals quivering.
Pirro spoke with the media to add her endorsement to President Donald Trump’s plan to reduce crime in the District of Columbia by calling out the National Guard and putting the Metropolitan Police Department under federal control.
Although media reports cited that crime overall in Washington has been declining, Pirro lambasted a reporter who seemed fixated on that and not the damage crime is doing to the city.
“It may be down, but the question is always down from what?” she said in a video posted to X.
Last week, a Baltimore judge rebuffed prosecutors’ calls for jail time for a 28-year-old man who brutally assaulted two senior citizens engaging in pro-life activism outside a Planned Parenthood in Baltimore. Instead, Baltimore Circuit Judge Yvette M.
Bryant sentenced the assailant, Patrick Brice, to a year of home detention and three years of probation. As part of the sentence, Brice must also complete anger management classes, go through drug and alcohol testing, and remain in therapy. Brice was found guilty in February of two counts of second-degree assault and reckless endangerment.
On May 26, 2023, pro-life activists Richard Schaefer and Mark Crosby, who were in their seventies and eighties at the time, were praying and sidewalk counseling outside the Baltimore Planned Parenthood. Brice had an exchange with Schaefer, which turned violent. Brice shoved Schaefer into a flowerpot.
Last Thursday, a Baltimore city circuit judge sentenced Patrick Brice to one year of home detention and three years’ probation after his infamous assault on elderly pro-lifers Mark Crosby and Richard Schaefer.
The grisly assault garnered headlines when on May 26, 2023, Brice, who was 28 years old at the time, savagely battered Crosby, who was 73, and Schaefer, who was 84.
Crosby and Schaefer, who are both devout Catholics, were outside of a Planned Parenthood clinic in downtown Baltimore handing out gift bags to women with information regarding alternatives to abortion.
Brice approached Schaefer and began debating the men over their pro-life views. Schaefer appeared to walk away when Brice suddenly tackled him into a large flowerpot, knocking the elderly man unconscious.
When Crosby went to help Schaefer, Brice shoved him to the ground, then mounted him and punched him in the face. After standing up, Brice forcefully kicked Crosby in the face.
The administrator tells the journalist that these programs have been reimagined and that they’re still doing it. This is going to be noticed by the Trump administration.
School choice activist Corey DeAngelis compiled this Twitter/X thread.
BREAKING: Undercover journalists caught a University of Iowa official admitting they “reimagined” their DEI programs.
“It’s not going away. We’re just reimagining how we’re doing it.”
They still do DEI “bias trainings” and “ally trainings.”
Over the past year, I have investigated all of the six major cases against Donald Trump that played out simultaneously between his two administrations for my book Breaking the Law. Each one of them involves obvious improprieties that necessitate investigations. In many instances, I believe investigators will find criminal activity, which ought to be prosecuted.
It is encouraging and heartening to see that the Department of Justice has taken up a criminal investigation into New York Attorney General Letitia “Tish” James and that the Office of the Special Counsel is investigating Special Counsel Jack Smith. This could mark a new era of accountability in this country and a return to law and order.
A top talent at ABC News admitted she was recently the victim of a violent crime in Washington, D.C., underscoring the need for a greater law enforcement presence in the nation’s capital.
Kyra Phillips, who has been with the network since 2018, recalled on Monday her recent encounter with a “half-dressed” man who mugged her in downtown D.C. She cited the instance as a “firsthand” experience felt by many others as they brave the pedestrian commute to work each day.
“I can tell you firsthand here in downtown DC, where we work, right here around our bureau, just in the past six months, you know, there were two people shot, one person died, literally two blocks down here from the bureau,” Phillips explained.
