Hillary Clinton’s deposition about her interactions with sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein was halted Thursday after a picture taken from the closed-door hearing was leaked.

The hearing took place in Chappaqua, New York.

Not long after the hearing began, a picture of Clinton appeared on social media.

Benny Johnson indicated on his X account that the picture was shared by Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado, according to Mediaite.

The people who cheered on Jack Smith’s corrupt investigations into Donald Trump and his allies are suddenly silent after a bombshell report detailing the Biden FBI’s politically-charged spying ops.

Reuters this week reported the Democrat-led FBI subpoenaed records of phone calls made by current FBI Director Kash Patel and Susie Wiles, Trump’s campaign manager who now serves as his White House chief of Staff, in 2022 and 2023 when they were private citizens. Two anonymous FBI officials told the publication that the agency “recorded a phone call between Wiles and her attorney” in 2023.

While taking questions from reporters after her closed-door deposition before the House Oversight Committee on Thursday, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was asked why Ghislaine Maxwell — the convicted sex-trafficker and Jeffrey Epstein’s former mistress — was a guest at her daughter’s wedding in 2010.

“Why was Ghislaine Maxwell at Chelsea’s wedding?” the former secretary was asked shortly after the deposition wrapped up. “She came as plus one with a guest who was invited,” Clinton responded shortly before the press conference wrapped up.

CNN is known for feeding red meat — perhaps blue meat? — to their left-of-center followers by showing them “scary” content about the other side of the aisle.

From wall-to-wall Jan. 6 coverage to constant whining about President Donald Trump, CNN is one of the most notorious purveyors of leftist narrative framing.

Now the propaganda machine is churning out new content about “Christian Nationalism” — the apparently radical idea that America is a historically Christian people, and would be blessed by honoring God and His Word.

Separate statements from European leaders and the Gulf States indicate that multiple countries may be willing to join a coalition effort against Iranian drone and missile launch sites.

Shortly after Iranian retaliatory attacks commenced against American and Israeli military installations in the Middle East, France, the U.K. and Germany, often referred to as the E3, released a joint statement indicating that they would be willing to participate in defensive measures.

Two Iranian drones impacted a warehouse at Al Salam Naval Base in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. The base, also known as Camp de la Paix, hosts French forces under a bilateral agreement with the UAE.

According to the UAE Ministry of Defense, specialised teams responded to the incident, which caused a fire in two containers holding general materials. No casualties occurred among Emirati or French personnel.

The UAE described the event as resulting from an attack by two Iranian drones, likely Shahed model kamikaze drones. Footage from the scene shows smoke billowing from the site of the impact.

President Donald Trump said Sunday that potential new leadership figures inside Iran have signaled a willingness to open talks, even as U.S. and Israeli military operations continue across the country.

According to Trey Yingst, a senior White House official told Fox News: “President Trump said new potential leadership in Iran has indicated they want to talk and eventually he will talk.”

“For now, Operation Epic Fury continues unabated.”

Last Sunday, as a massive blizzard hit New York City, Comrade Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani posted praise of municipal workers on X: “Grateful for the public workers who keep NYC running — especially in a blizzard. From 5am suhoor with @NYCSanitation to visits to @nycparks’ Randall’s Island garage, DSNY’s Flushing plow shed & @nycdot’s salting operation … it’s working people who show up for NYC.”

Mamdani included four photos, including one of him praying with four Muslim workers from the Department of Sanitation; suhoor is the meal that Muslims eat before dawn during Ramadan, as the fasting period begins with the rising of the sun. He did not, however, bother to explain how observing Ramadan with sanitation workers, or praying with them, did anything to help “keep NYC running.”

An explosive, newly released Department of Justice (DOJ) email has revealed that federal prosecutors were secretly investigating Jeffrey Epstein’s death as a “murder,” despite publicly claiming that the convicted child predator died from suicide.

The bombshell discovery has reignited fierce debate over what really happened inside a federal jail cell in 2019.

The email is part of the latest document tranche released under the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

Copies of the documents have quickly gone viral across social media platforms, fueling fresh skepticism about the government’s long-standing claim that Epstein “killed himself.”

As sure as the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, if there’s one thing you can set your watch to, it’s the political elite lining their own pockets.

While this is undoubtedly an issue infesting a chunk of American politics, it does seem to be an issue that’s a little more closely intertwined with the Democratic Party (See: Pelosi, Nancy).

That ugly reputation resurfaced again this week when Virginia’s Democrat-controlled Senate and House of Delegates passed the former’s version of the state budget on Thursday, according to WJLA-TV.

Urges political scientists to ‘queer’ their discipline by ‘undoing the cisheteronormative assumptions’

The University of Oxford Department of Politics & International Relations “rounded off” its celebration of LGBTQ+ History Month (February in the U.K.) by interviewing Aylon Cohen, a “departmental lecturer in feminist political theory who’s also written on “queer-feminist theory,” “affect studies,” and “non-human political theory.”

Cohen said he’s currently at work on two “interrelated projects,” one involving “how the criminalization of sodomy and the policing of men’s bodily relations shaped the emergence of fraternity as an political ideal of equality,” and the other on how alleged authoritarian governments “mobilize gender and sexuality as strategies to consolidate power.”

President Donald Trump described the three American military personnel killed during the conflict with Iran as “great people” in a Sunday interview with the Daily Mail.

United States Central Command (CENTCOM) reported three service members were killed in action and at least five others were wounded as of 9:30 a.m. EST Sunday. Trump told the U.K.-based outlet there could be more casualties during Operation Epic Fury. That interview was initially published Sunday before the president posted a six-minute address to Truth Social.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) released a Spanish-language public service announcement informing illegal aliens that they are eligible for “free” daycare in the city.

In the new video, the two Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) members assure illegal aliens that they can sign up for the program, regardless of immigration status.

At the beginning of the video, Mamdani acknowledged his limited Spanish skills.

“Mi español .. no es el major,” Mamdani said, translating to “my Spanish is not great.”

PBS’s Washington Week with The Atlantic remains a reliably Democrat-boosting/Republican-bashing political roundtable, but this Friday, the show featured a tiny, overdue peek into an under-covered angle of the sordid Jeffrey Epstein saga, which thus far the media has used as a cudgel against President Donald Trump and the Republican-controlled Congress.

It turns out Democrats have their own hypocritical partisan reasons for not pursuing the Epstein case, according to a story by Sarah Fitzpatrick of The Atlantic magazine, going back to the elitist media’s favorite power couple, the Clintons.

The United States and several countries in the Middle East, such as Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and Qatar, issued a joint statement strongly condemning Iran’s “indiscriminate and reckless missile and drone attacks.”

In a press release from the Department of State, the U.S., Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) explained that the “unjustified strikes targeted sovereign territory” and also endangered civilians.

The statement from the countries comes as Iran has launched missiles and drones at several of its neighboring countries in response to the U.S. and Israel launching joint strikes, targeting Iran’s missiles.

A shocking headline caught my attention today amid the chaos in the Mideast.

Two things stood out.  No — THREE things stood out.

10,000 ships are currently at threat of electronic warfare being fielded over the last 24 hours.

And the headline I ran with — more than 1,000 ships have ALREADY been ‘attacked’ in the waters off the coast of Iran.

And the third thing that rattled me…

Things in the Middle East may be getting even spicier than they already were. On Sunday, Fox News correspondent Bret Baier too to his X account with a report that a coalition of Persian Gulf states is preparing to join the fight against Iran. If this is true, as someone once said, it’s a big freakin’ deal.

Last week, the United States Civil Rights Commission (USCCR) hosted public comment sessions on Antisemitism on America’s College and University Campuses.

As was described in presentations by LIF Founder and Director William A. Jacobson and me, Jews on campus are experiencing abuse, in large part, due to the conduct of academic institutions. In particular, intersectionality ideology dominates campus culture in and out of the classroom.

Another “Dead ICE Agents Can’t Kill” flyer was found at Penn State University, prompting the College Republicans and College Democrats to issue a joint statement of condemnation on Saturday.

Found by a member of the Penn State College Republicans, the flyer was hung near the HUB-Robeson Center, a central part of daily life for students at Penn State, according to the statement.

This is the second time that particular flyer has been put up on campus. In early February, Penn State police launched an investigation into the flyer when it first appeared, the Centre Daily Times reported.

Several prominent Senate Democrats are demanding a “path to citizenship” for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) recipients who have criminal records.

Democrats are lamenting the DACA aliens who have been arrested during the first year of President Donald Trump’s second term, even after federal data showed that 92% of those apprehended had criminal histories beyond civil immigration violations.

Senate Minority Whip Dick Durbin (D-IL), alongside Sens. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) and Alex Padilla (D-CA), issued a joint statement condemning Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for arresting 261 DACA recipients in the first ten months of 2025.

An under-the-radar primary in North Carolina is gaining national attention after morphing into another competitive battleground for progressives waging war against establishment Democrats, putting incumbent Rep. Valerie Foushee (D-NC) at risk of losing her seat in the state’s bluest district.

The 69-year-old Foushee is facing Durham County Commissioner Nida Allam, a younger, more left-leaning candidate, in the March 3 primary. The congresswoman has been in this position before, defeating the 32-year-old Allam by nine points in the 2022 primary to replace former Rep. David Price.

The office of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg declined to charge a 27-year-old male for assaulting police officers at Washington Square Park in New York City.

Gusmane Coulibaly was arrested on Thursday after his picture was circulated on a NYPD tipline for a massive snowball skirmish that happened earlier this week. He was charged with assaulting NYPD officers.

Coulibaly, who was also supposedly an internet personality and wannabe social media influencer known as “Diaperman,” claimed the snowball fight was a prank, according to the New York Post. Notably, Coulibaly was previously arrested on Feb. 6 and charged with attempted robbery at a subway station in the Bronx in New York City.
