Rashida Tlaib Delivers Speech Claiming U.S. Political Structures Built on Slavery, Genocide, and Oppression
Democrat Rep. Rashida Tlaib: “The political structures that we are surrounded by were built on slavery and genocide and oppression. Look at this room, motherf*kers. We aren’t going anywhere. Now we’re in Congress and every corner of the United States.”
As Leonard Cohen wrote, ‘I’ve seen the future brother, it is murder.’
We warned you this was coming and we were brutally punished for doing so.
Meta announced Monday that its Louisiana data center investment has grown from $10 billion to $50 billion and that it expects to generate substantial local tax revenues as it pursues artificial superintelligence.
The Richland Parish Data Center, nicknamed “Hyperion,” will be a nearly 10 million-square-foot, five-gigawatt facility, equivalent to a power plant capable of supplying enough electricity to power roughly 4 million average U.S. homes simultaneously. Altogether, that is about as much energy as New York City uses on a winter day.
“We’re delivering real economic impact alongside the AI infrastructure that will power the future,” Meta Vice President of Data Centers Rachel Peterson said in a statement.
There are threats, and then there are $30 billion threats.
California Attorney General Rob Bonta seems to have the magic wand that could remedy the situation, but the decision is not exactly a case of right and wrong.
‘The proposed transaction will increase output, expand theatrical releases, and enhance competition.’
On Monday, MS NOW celebrated their 30th anniversary with a new ad that played at the end of Morning Joe. The 15-second advertisement celebrated the network’s so-called “journalism” that supposedly “strengthens our democracy.”
Notably, amid changes to the network programming, the promotion heavily featured the nighttime duo of Lawrence O’Donnell and Rachel Maddow, two hosts who have showcased some unhinged moments in the age of Trump and whose programming was anything but impartial.
Broken up with short soundbites from O’Donnell and Maddow, the advertisement’s narrator read:
Celebrating 30 years… Delivering journalism that informs, empowers, and strengthens our democracy.

Writing in May for Above the Law, Ken Crutchfieldobserved that “over the past year, we’ve seen a steady stream of headlines about AI hallucinations where fake cases, fabricated quotes, and misstated facts made it through a review process and into court filings.” The predicament isn’t just that GenAI tools invent non-existent cases that some short-cut-taking attorneys cite without verifying; it’s that the tools also produce difficult-to-discover false claims and quotations that masquerade as truth in pleadings and motions. Indeed, the US Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit explained in February that the “problem now often manifests as false quotes or statements of law attributed to real cases, rather than the more easily recognizable fake cases.”
David Ellison, CEO of Paramount Skydance, has reportedly been backing a bill for a federal film tax incentive that has bipartisan support.
Multiple sources confirmed to Variety that that Ellison has spent at “least six months in exploratory meetings for the proposed legislation.” Ellison also met with Republican leaders in Washington, D.C., on Monday to discuss the legislation.
A federal film tax incentive would provide significant financial relief to content producers fleeing the U.S. for rebates around the world. A federal program would also sweeten the deal in Hollywood’s home state of California, whose AG Rob Bonta is leading the charge on the searing antitrust lawsuit waged today against Ellison over Warner Bros.
The Trump Justice Department has secured roughly two dozen non-citizens voting arrests, prosecutions or convictions in the last few months, with another nearly 90 more cases under investigation.
Just the News reports that the wave of prosecutions represents a growing number of individuals charged in the last year with illegally voting in U.S. federal elections as foreigners.
Department of Justice (DOJ) officials say all 50 states were sent notices this month that election officials can and will be prosecuted too if they allow non-citizens to vote.
Democrat Sen. Ed Markey (D-MA) has launched a sweeping new Internet regulation agenda that would push Americans toward mandatory digital ID checks before they can use social media or other online platforms.
Markey rolled out a series of bills as part of what he calls an “AI Accountability Agenda.”
The package includes close to a dozen bills under the slogan “Taking Power Back from Big Tech.”
Markey says the goal is to “take back unchecked power from Big Tech and put it into the hands of the American people.”
The four Minnesota officials who voted to pardon Tou Lue Vang, an illegal alien from Laos convicted of child rape, cited “immigration concerns” and rehabilitation as reasons for their decision, according to documents from the Minnesota Clemency Review Commission reviewed by Fox News.
The vote was 4-2 to recommend the pardon. The Minnesota Board of Pardons, made up of Gov. Tim Walz, Attorney General Keith Ellison, and Minnesota Supreme Court Chief Justice Natalie Hudson, granted Vang a full pardon, giving him a clean slate.
On Friday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said that the U.S. deported Vang, despite receiving a pardon from those officials.
A federal judge in California has blocked the Trump administration’s push to attach anti-DEI strings to federal grant money. The court ruled this week that the executive branch overstepped its constitutional authority by imposing the conditions on a group of West Coast cities and counties.
U.S. District Judge William Orrick granted a preliminary injunction Thursday barring the Departments of Homeland Security, Justice and the Interior from enforcing the contested conditions against 11 local governments, concluding in a 68-page order that the restrictions likely run afoul of both the separation-of-powers doctrine and the Administrative Procedure Act.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) almost looks like a centrist now. That would have been a strange thing to say eight years ago, when she knocked off Rep. Joe Crowley, then the fourth-ranking Democrat in the House, and became the face of a new left flank that made party leaders nervous. She and the rest of the “Squad” were supposed to be the ceiling, the outer edge of what the activist base would tolerate, and Democratic leadership spent the next several years assuring anyone who would listen that the fever would break on its own, but it didn’t. If anything, the crop of candidates the party is nominating in 2026 makes Ocasio-Cortez, who still holds the same views that once alarmed her colleagues, look like someone who long ago made her peace with the establishment.
Early details have emerged on the cause of death for the late Senator Lindsey Graham, who passed away late Saturday night after a “brief and sudden illness” at the age of 71.
A preliminary report from the Washington, D.C., medical examiner’s office listed the cause of death as aortic dissection due to arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease.
Aortic dissection is a tear in the aorta, the main artery that carries blood from the heart. Arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease involves the gradual hardening and weakening of the arteries.
The medical examiner’s office stated that the official deat
The Pentagon is planning to maintain a federal National Guard mission in Washington, D.C., through January 20, 2029, the end of President Donald Trump’s second term.
The plan, finalized late last year, awaits final approval from War Secretary Pete Hegseth, according to two U.S. officials who spoke to ABC News. Hegseth is widely expected to approve the extension.
When asked for comment, Pentagon press secretary Kingsley Wilson stated there were “no announcements to make at this time,” while adding that the Defense Department remains “committed to supporting the President’s mission to address the epidemic of crime in our Nation’s capital.”
TEHRAN — The elaborate funeral rites for Iran’s slain supreme leader that drew huge crowds of mourners offered a show of strength by the country’s surviving leadership as key senior officials boldly emerged into public view for the first time since the war. And in its posture toward the United States, Tehran also now seems emboldened.
Michigan Democrat Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed is pitching Medicare for All as a universal health insurance guarantee with no premiums, copays, deductibles, networks, or out-of-pocket costs, despite warnings that eliminating virtually all patient costs would leave taxpayers responsible for the bill.
In an exclusive clip from an interview on Intellectually Petty Radio provided to Breitbart News, El-Sayed said:
“I think you need to guarantee health care for everyone, cradle to grave, without premium, copay, deductible. Medicare for all. And I just want you to imagine, right, that that card that you get in your — via your private health insurer — that card sits in your back pocket. You pay a ton of money for it, and it goes away if you lose your job. Now, imagine you had one right there, but you got the day you were born that doesn’t expire until you expire, God willing, after a long, healthy life at 120 years old in your sleep. You don’t lose it if you turn 26. You don’t lose it if you turn 65. You don’t lose it if you get married, get divorced. Doesn’t matter. It’s there for you. There’s no network, and there’s no cost out of pocket. That’s the security people need and deserve.”
The remarks show El-Sayed doubling down on Medicare for All with no premiums, no copays, no deductibles, and no out-of-pocket expenses.
Medicare as it exists today does not operate that way. Seniors commonly pay Part B premiums, face deductibles, and remain responsible for coinsurance and other out-of-pocket expenses. The program is also heavily subsidized by federal taxpayers and contributes substantially to the national debt.
In the immediate hours following the unexpected death of long-time Republican Senator Lindsey Graham, ghoulish posts immediately began being posted by the usual suspects.
Lindsey Graham has moved on to the next step in his journey, trying to convince Hades to attack Zeus and Poseidon. He says it’ll only take a couple of weeks and won’t require any ground troops. And there’s no way Poseidon can close the Strait.
AI is turning scientists into publishing machines—and quietly funneling them into the same crowded corners of research.
That’s the conclusion of an analysis of more than 40 million academic papers, which found that scientists who use AI tools in their research publish more papers, accumulate more citations, and reach leadership roles sooner than peers who don’t.
But there’s a catch. As individual scholars soar through the academic ranks, science as a whole shrinks its curiosity. AI-heavy research covers less topical ground, clusters around the same data-rich problems, and sparks less follow-on engagement between studies.
Praying mantises have fascinated people for centuries. Across different cultures, they have been viewed as everything from mystical guides that help lost travelers find their way home to ominous creatures associated with bad luck. Beyond the legends, native mantises also play an important ecological role by serving as indicators of healthy, biodiverse ecosystems.
Now, however, scientists say two Asian mantis species are becoming a growing threat to Europe’s native wildlife.
A letter allegedly written by Tyler Robinson appearing to show a confession to murdering conservative activist Charlie Kirk was briefly shown to the public Thursday during a court hearing, despite a judge’s prior order barring the document from being displayed before jury selection.
The disclosure occurred during a weeklong evidentiary hearing for Robinson, 23, who faces the death penalty if convicted of assassinating the Turning Point USA founder before a crowd at Utah Valley University on Sept. 10, 2025.
Utah Judge Tony Graf had ruled that materials prosecutors characterize as a confession should not be broadcast. But two images of the note — one showing the partially burned original and another depicting an intact photograph stored on Robinson’s roommate’s phone — were briefly visible on the court’s livestream before Graf noticed the mistake and had them removed.
Confirming what many have suspected all along, a former trauma surgeon says that those who did not receive the COVID-19 jab were treated differently during the pandemic, receiving a far lower standard of care than vaccinated individuals did.
In a podcast discussion with host Alix Mayer, Dr. James Miller made one startling statement after another, alleging that the unvaccinated were treated as “dirty plague rat[s]”, and that hospitals were actually nothing more than “killing fields.”
“The vaccinated and unvaccinated were treated differently,” said Miller in a clip of the video interview provided by Sense Receptor. “They started just denying basic health services to unvaccinated people, which spurred not giving diabetes medicine.”
MOSCOW, July 11. /TASS/. Polish and French officials have held the first consultations to discuss French President Emmanuel Macron’s `nuclear umbrella’ initiative, Poland’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs said.
“As a follow-up to the French president’s proposal to engage in a strategic dialogue on forward deterrence with European partners, Poland and France held the first consultations of the Steering Group for Nuclear Cooperation, which took place in Paris on 10 July 2026,” the Polish MFA said in a post on X.
Warsaw did not elaborate, saying only that the two delegations “focused on Europe’s current security situation.”
Not having Little Italy on a map of ethnic enclaves in New York is like leaving the Golden Gate Bridge off a list of bridges in San Francisco. And yet that is precisely what the Ugandan-born socialist mayor of New York has done.
Zohran Mamdani’s Office of Immigrant Affairs released a map on Wednesday titled “New York City’s Immigrant Enclaves.” It features 30 enclaves spread across the five boroughs, from Little Africa to Little Yemen, even Little Odessa. And, of course—Mamdani being Mamdani—it includes Little Palestine.
However, somehow Mamdani has erased the most famous immigrant enclave of all, the capo di capi of New York’s ethnic neighborhoods, the iconic Little Italy.
Two Fort Worth, Texas, police officers have come under fire for threatening to ticket a Christian street preacher and a former fed at a Trinity Pride Fest event. Their crime? Their speech might “offend” someone.
Either this pair never went to high school, or their educators just skipped over all that pesky “Constitution” stuff.
The first name of this female officer is Sarah (last name Stogner), but it should be “Karen.” Watch:
On behalf of the largest police news outlet in the world, we’re officially calling for the resignation or termination of this officer IMMEDIATELY.

“We face a lot of uncertainty in terms of what punishment we could possibly face because we’re speaking about a controversial subject,” Barrick told The Federalist.
