Following months of political theater, gamesmanship, and grandstanding in the halls of Congress, President Donald Trump has signed into law the bill to release the Epstein files.

Political leaders on both sides of the aisle have taken victory laps for transparency and are eagerly awaiting the release of documents to score more political points. But like much of what happens in the halls of Congress these days, the Epstein files law is yet another example of Congress appearing to fix a problem and failing to do so. This law is a red herring and is endemic of the much larger problem of weak congressional oversight.

The Epstein legislation is poorly written and contains loopholes large enough to drive a Mack truck through. For example, the legislation applies only to records in the possession of the Justice Department. What about the rest of the U.S. government? There are legitimate questions surrounding Jeffrey Epstein’s connections to the intelligence community. By cabining records in the possession of the Justice Department, the bill leaves a lot of meat on the bone.

California is violating federal law, according to a new lawsuit filed by the Department of Justice.

The state effectively in-state tuition to illegal immigrants, which violates a federal prohibition against the practice. University of California does so, for example, by allowing for in-state tuition rates to illegal immigrants who attended school for three years in the state and graduated from high school.

Federal law forbids states from offering better tuition deals to illegal immigrants who reside in the state than it does to Americans from other states.

This illegal “unequal treatment,” according to the lawsuit filed on Nov. 20.

Plaintiffs include Governor Gavin Newsom and the regents for the state university and community college systems.

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni expressed support for the peace plan proposed by the United States to end the war between Russia and Ukraine.

President Donald Trump presented the 28-point draft proposal for a peace plan to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Ukrainian officials last week, according to the Associated Press. The plan included security guarantees for Ukraine, an agreement not to join NATO in the future, Ukraine’s eligibility for membership into the European Union, and territory concessions by Ukraine and Russia, among other details.

While speaking at a press conference during the G20 summit in Johannesburg, South Africa, Meloni rejected the idea of needing a counterproposal to the U.S. deal, emphasizing the plan had “many points that were acceptable.” She suggested using the plan as a foundation for a peace agreement, rather than scrapping it and drafting a counterproposal.

The North Dakota Supreme Court on Friday restored a near-total ban on abortions, delivering a major victory for pro-life advocates who hailed the decision as a critical step in safeguarding unborn children across the state.

In a 3-2 ruling, the high court found that the state’s pro-life law banning abortions, enacted by the Legislature in 2023, remains constitutional, rejecting a lower court’s earlier decision to strike down the law.

The measure, Senate Bill 2150, classifies killing a baby in an abortion as a felony punishable by up to five years in prison and a $10,000 fine. Exceptions are permitted only to save a patient’s life or protect their health, and such rare abortions must occur in hospital settings.

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito blocked a federal court ruling Friday that struck down Texas’ new congressional map, allowing Republicans to continue using the disputed boundaries while the high court weighs the case.

Alito ordered the League of United Latin American Citizens and other challengers to respond by Monday at 5 p.m. EST, according to the court document. The administrative stay blocks the Nov. 18 order from the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas while the Supreme Court considers the case.

The Supreme Court order states the district court’s ruling “is hereby administratively stayed pending further order of the undersigned or of the Court.” Alito signed the order personally on Nov. 21.

President Donald Trump’s administration has revealed sweeping fraud inside the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), top officials have announced.

Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins revealed that at least 186,000 deceased individuals were receiving benefits.

However, the huge number is expected to grow further once data from Democrat-run states is finally disclosed.

Rollins detailed the findings while addressing concerns surrounding SNAP, describing the scale of fraud as staggering.

On Monday, November 17th, the City Council of Wolfforth, Texas (pop. 9,600) became the 85th city in the nation, and the 68th city in the State of Texas, to pass a Sanctuary City for the Unborn Ordinance.

The “Ordinance Outlawing Abortion, declaring Wolfforth a Sanctuary City for the Unborn” passed in a unanimous 5-0 vote, as part of their consent agenda. The City of Wolfforth, located between Ropesville (pop. 434) and Lubbock (pop. 272,086), is the fifth city in Lubbock County to adopt a Sanctuary for the Unborn Ordinance. Wolfforth is also the 15th city and the 20th political subdivision to pass such a measure in 2025.

The Trump administration on Tuesday made a big move forward in its effort to effectively dismantle the U.S. Department of Education, announcing the agency will transfer a lot of its workload to other federal departments.

The new partnerships with the Labor, Interior, Health and Human Services, and State departments will help streamline and consolidate a lot of bureaucracy and red tape, the Education Department announced in a news release.

“By partnering with agencies that are best positioned to deliver results for students and taxpayers, these [interagency agreements] will streamline federal education activities on the legally required programs, reduce administrative burdens, and refocus programs and activities to better serve students and grantees,” the release stated.

U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi has announced that federal charges have been filed against a man who threatened to kill a prominent conservative political commentator and friend of the late Charlie Kirk.

George Isbell Jr., 69, was arrested last month in San Diego, California for allegedly threatening to kill conservative political commentator Benny Johnson. He will be federally charged in Florida with mailing a threatening communication, according to Bondi.

“Benny is a well-known media personality, carrying a message very similar to Charlie’s. Grounded largely in faith and love of country. Just days after Charlie’s assassination, Benny received a letter at his home where he and Kate are raising their beautiful, beautiful young family,” Bondi said. “The author of this letter made it very clear that he hated Benny because of his views, and he wanted Benny dead.”

“This was a coward hiding behind a keyboard who thought he could get away with this. That’s why we’re standing up here today. You are not going to get away with threatening people in this way. And I’m proud to announce that we have arrested the author of this letter,” the attorney general added.

New York Times Houston bureau chief J. David Goodman sounded aggrieved in his Texas-based story in Wednesday’s paper, “Texas Declares Muslim Civil Rights Group a Terrorist.” This is how liberal papers routinely describe leftist agitators. They’re “civil rights groups.”

As for the phrase “Muslim Civil Rights Group,” the Times is actually talking about the Council for American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), a Hamas-linked Islamic pressure group. “Civil rights group” should not describe a radical group whose national executive director Nihad Awad declared himself happy about the October 7 massacre by Hamas — a story covered by the Times in December 2023 but ignored in this new story. “I was happy to see people breaking the siege and throwing down the shackles of their own land,” Awad said.

Gov. Greg Abbott of Texas declared on Tuesday that one of the nation’s largest Muslim advocacy and civil rights groups is a foreign terrorist organization, saying the move will prohibit the organization from acquiring land in Texas and authorize the state attorney general “to sue to shut them down” in Texas.

In his declaration, Mr. Abbott said that the group, the Washington-based Council on American-Islamic Relations, had direct ties to Hamas, which has been designated as a terrorist group by the U.S. government. The nonprofit, known by its initials, CAIR, has denied having any such ties.

Move over, colonoscopies — researchers writing in ACS Sensors report that they have created tiny microspheres filled with bacteria that can sense the presence of blood, a key sign of gastrointestinal disease. These microspheres function like miniature “pills” that are swallowed and include magnetic particles so they can be easily collected from stool. After passing through mouse models with colitis, the sensors detected gastrointestinal bleeding within minutes. The team notes that the same bacterial system could eventually be engineered to identify other gut-related conditions.

“This technology provides a new paradigm for rapid and non-invasive detection of gastrointestinal diseases,” says Ying Zhou, a co-author of the study.

Under the reality-denying concept of “transgender,” which was enshrined in federal regulation in 2012, more and more incarcerated men have been permitted to opt into women’s prisons based on self-identification. There have been some legal challenges to this, but, until now, these efforts have not yet been successful.

In the wake of President Trump’s Executive Order (EO) on Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government, two women incarcerated at the sole women’s medical center in the federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) system filed suit. This EO included a provision requiring federal agencies to “ensure that males are not detained in women’s prisons or housed in women’s detention centers.” Due to the DC district court issuing Preliminary Injunctions on behalf of male inmates demanding to continue to be housed in women’s prison, the EO has not been implemented.

Texas Christian U. to end gender, race studies departments

Texas Christian University will dissolve its Departments of Women and Gender Studies and Comparative Race and Ethnic Studies at the end of this academic year, merging both programs into the English Department.

The decision, announced earlier this month, has sparked debate over whether the action could mark a return to traditional Christian values or is a cosmetic response to donors and political pressure.

Provost Floyd Wormley told faculty the merger is driven by low enrollment and broader budget restructuring that will also combine other small departments. “Decisions are not based on academic content but on data,” a university spokesperson told Inside Higher Ed.

The Ohio House of Representatives advanced two pro-life measures on Wednesday aimed at curbing chemical abortions and educating students on fetal development.

The pro-life bills are drawing praise from advocates who hailed the votes as a victory for mothers and unborn children.

House Bill 324, dubbed the Patient Protection Act, cleared the chamber 59-28. The legislation would classify the abortion drug mifepristone as a “dangerous drug” due to its severe side effects in more than 5% of patients. It prohibits mail-order sales and remote prescribing, requiring women to visit a doctor in person for informed consent about the risks.

After failing to find an attorney willing to take up Fulton County Fani Willis’ troubled 2020 election case, the prosecutor conducting the search for her replacement appointed himself.

The Prosecuting Attorneys Council of Georgia (PACGA) faced a Nov. 14 deadline to select a new attorney or have the case dismissed.

“The filing of this appointment reflects my inability to secure another conflict prosecutor to assume responsibility for this case,” PACGA Executive Director Peter Skanadlakis wrote. “Several prosecutors were contacted and, while all were respectful and professional, each declined the appointment. Out of respect for their privacy and professional discretion, I will not identify those prosecutors or disclose their reasons for declining.” (RELATED: Fani Willis Gets Fired From Trump Case For Good)

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.
