An American-born transgender soldier is working as a junior sergeant for Ukrainian Territorial Defense Force, and is also its spokesperson. Sarah Ashton-Cirillo enlisted in the Armed Forces of Ukraine as a combat medic after coming to the country as a reporter soon after Russia’s invasion. “Sarah informs the English-speaking audience – she objectively covers the events of the Russian-Ukrainian war, debunks Russian fakes and propaganda,” Deputy Defense Minister of Ukraine Hanna Malyar said, according to the Kyiv Post. “Sarah’s audience reach on Twitter alone was 28.3 million users. So, the enemies get excited on hateful social networks, of course. However,...

Ohio voters on Tuesday will decide on a ballot measure to make it harder to amend the state constitution, a change conservatives say is needed to protect the state from a radical anti-gun, abortion and education agenda that could soon find its way to other states. It's an issue that has already prompted a massive early vote turnout – one that has some election offices straining to manage the load. "This is gubernatorial-level turnout," said Regine Johnson, deputy director of the board of elections in Stark County. As of Wednesday, more than 533,000 people had voted by mail or in...

The Wisconsin Supreme Court has a liberal majority for the first time in 15 years. On Tuesday, Janet Protasiewicz was sworn into the state Supreme Court, beginning her 10-year term on a high court likely to play a key role in the state’s debates over issues ranging from voting rights to abortion. Protasiewicz replaces former conservative Justice Patience Roggensack on the court. In April, Protasiewicz, the liberal candidate, handily beat her conservative opponent, former state Supreme Court Justice Daniel Kelly, in what is nominally a nonpartisan race.

The mainstream media wall of silence protecting America's First Family has been crumbling for some time, but now its whole rotten foundation may collapse. And when those bricks come tumbling down, Joe Biden better cover his head. Wednesday's jaw-dropping implosion of Hunter Biden's sweetheart plea deal – delivered to him on a silver platter by his daddy's Justice Department – is too shocking for even the left-wing lapdog press to completely ignore. When Federal Judge Maryellen Noreika blew a faint breath at the proposed agreement, it fell apart like a house of cards. The judge simply asked government prosecutors and...

Alexandra Capelouto was found slumped over on her bed by her mother, Christine, two days before Christmas. The 20-year-old sociology major at Arizona State University, who had returned home to Temecula, California on her winter break in 2019, had taken what she thought was a batch of oxycodone to help her sleep. Instead, it was fentanyl, the deadly drug destroying lives across America. The man who sold it to her, Brandon Michael McDowell, 23, was jailed for nine years in February. But Alexandra's grieving father, Matt Capelouto, believes the state's liberal lawmakers also 'have blood on their hands'. America's fentanyl...

Cultural guerrilla warfare means hitting the enemy with precision and effective labelling that destroys their propaganda in one fell swoop. Everyone on the pro-freedom right knows that we are in a cultural battle that is going to be a knockdown, drag-out fight with the forces of evil, better known as the anti-liberty authoritarians of the far left. We are on the side of liberty and individual rights in the marketplace of ideas, while the sinister set is still pushing the failed concepts of collectivism, concepts that have failed for centuries. This isn’t the place to detail why they are doing...

In the video, she questioned why she cannot find a left-leaning man who's 'willing to play the more traditional masculine role in the relationship' 'As a liberal woman, it is really hard to find a...

VIDEOYou know the guy with the megaphone was doing a great job of red pilling via mocking the official narrative because it enraged a liberal to the point that he went flat out BERSERK. And don't think this crazed liberal is an outlier because the schools, the media, and the government including the top ranks of the DOJ and the FBI are filled with others just like him.

A University of Florida African American Studies course interprets the horror genre based on “racial identity and oppression” while using materials on “whiteness,” “black feminism,” and “queering personhood.” The course, “Black Horror, White Terror,” explores “the relationship between horror and Black literary modes and traditions focusing on key moments that depict fears of Blackness and/or the terror associated with being Black in America,” according to a spring 2023 syllabus.

The irrational leaders of the EU fought long and hard to defend their reckless open-door immigration policies, even calling countries such as Hungary, which opposed those policies, “undemocratic.” Smears including “anti-immigrant,” “racist” and “Islamophobe” were also levied at anyone who protested against the invasion of mostly Muslim economic migrants who entered Europe illegally in droves. Now that open-door policies has proven (as everyone should have known) to be a failed experiment, as well as unsustainable, with Western countries in financial crisis and crime stats going through the roof, the EU is finally backpedaling. Four months ago, Germany deported only 5...
