A Ukrainian soldier fighting near the country's northern front line has described the menace of Russia's bombardment, telling the Times of London that they are "losing so many people, there are so many bodies we can't even bring them all back." A major factor in the current Russian offensive is glide bombs, which Russia has stepped up the use of in the last three months. These are Soviet-era bombs tricked out with guidance systems and wings enabling long-distance strikes. As of last month, Russia was using them intensely around three flashpoints of the war: Kupiansk, the eastern city of Bakhmut,...

Starved of ammunition and losing ground, Ukraine has gone months without receiving weapons from the United States. The crucial flow of military support paused in December after the Pentagon announced it had run out of money to replenish stocks. Ukraine's Defence Minister Rustem Umerov has said troops are in a state of "shell hunger" and reports have emerged of forces rationing as few as 15 artillery shells per day. For every 10 shells Russia fires, Ukraine can only shoot one, Kyiv security officials have said. The firepower shortage was a contributing factor in the recent withdrawal from Avdiivka.

You can’t feel relaxed anymore,” she...

Former Trump White House adviser Peter Navarro must report to prison on Tuesday as scheduled, after the Supreme Court on Monday denied the stay of his sentence.

Former President Trump and several of his co-defendants are asking Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee for permission to appeal after he ruled against dismissing the case and disqualifying District Attorney Fani Willis.

Wade withdrew within hours of the judge's order.Four co-defendants had accused Willis of having an "improper" affair with Wade, whom she hired to help...

The media have been pseudo-analyzing Trump to impart dark meaning to his every word. Sometimes a metaphor is just that.Sometimes, a cigar is just a cigar.

Anyone who saw the remarks at a campaign rally Saturday in Ohio knew Trump was talking about the economic fallout of a...

A rape survivor, attacked at knifepoint when she was 12, sat across from two men who'd been wrongfully convicted of sexually assaulting children. The woman, Tomeshia Carrington-Artis, was devastated two decades later when she learned that the man she was sure had been her attacker, was innocent. After his exoneration, people accused Carrington-Artis, now in her late 40s, of intentionally sending the wrong man to prison and said she should be behind bars. Carrington-Artis and the men she sat with were attendees at a retreat organized by the nonprofit organization Healing Justice — the 17th retreat the nonprofit has held....

The former civil liberties group continues morphing into a progressive organization.Among the unfortunate changes of recent years has been the transformation of the American Civil Liberties Union from an advocate for free speech and other individual rights into just another progressive political organization. Historically, despite much pushback, the group defended the right of people from across the political spectrum to advocate and protest. But the organization has become unreliable on the issue; most recently in the very 21st century debate over gender identity, which sees the ACLU of Missouri targeting a whistleblower who is critical of medical transitions for minors....

This afternoon, Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) tweeted about today’s US Supreme Court case (Murthy v. Missouri) that involves several plaintiffs, including The Gateway Pundit, who have been harmed by censorship by the government and big tech. In his tweet, Senator Rand Paul wrote: Today, SCOTUS heard Murthy v. Missouri, the most consequential free speech case in U.S. history. This isn’t just about social media companies; it’s a critical examination of government overreach. The Biden administration and FBI’s efforts to influence Big Tech into silencing dissent tramples on the 1st Amendment. Our focus must be on preventing government censorship, not compelling...

This morning the Supreme Court held oral argument in the case that is now styled Murthy v. Missouri. C-SPAN has posted audio of the oral argument here. The case arises from the government’s “encouragement” of censorship by the social media platforms, as documented in the Twitter Files.

The Supreme Court has already entered an order staying the narrowed preliminary injunction that had been fashioned by the Fifth...

Former MSNBC bomb thrower Keith Olbermann is taking heat for posting to social media his apparent hope that Donald Trump would be assassinated. The shrill, extreme leftist jumped to his X account on Saturday and replied to a Joe Biden campaign post which featured a video of a segment of a speech Trump recently made in Dayton, Ohio.

Another step towards implementing a Social Credit system.. Financial privacy is a right under the constitution, as is free speech. Under the guise of “credit review”, Stripe is now rolling out a requirement that appears to target conservative or "anti-vax" Substack authors. Stripe is requiring that these authors provide all of their current and historic financial records associated with the bank account into which Stripe deposits Substack subscriber payments (after taking 10% off the top for Substack and 3% for Stripe). Stripe already has information concerning this bank account (including deposits from Stripe), as we have been doing business with...

President Trump’s lawyers on Monday in a court filing said Trump has been unable to secure a bond in order to appeal Letitia James’ $454 million judgment. Letitia James last month threatened to seize Trump’s assets. Last month President Trump offered to post a $100 million bond and asked for a stay of the $464 million judgment in Letitia James Soviet-style NYC fraud trial. “The exorbitant and punitive amount of the Judgment coupled with an unlawful and unconstitutional blanket prohibition on lending transactions would make it impossible to secure and post a complete bond,” Trump’s defense lawyers wrote in the...
