  • Chiefs fans get first look at upcoming new stadium but there's a problem: "It's Arrowhead with a roof"

    There has been plenty of discussion surrounding the Kansas City Chiefs' decision with their new, upcoming stadium. Scheduled to open in 2031, "New Chiefs Stadium" will be located in Kansas City, Kansas instead of Kansas City, Missouri. That in itself has been controversial. There's also the question of whether there's actually a need for a brand new stadium. Arrowhead Stadium has been renovated and even expanded several times over the past 35 years. And it just played a major role during the 2026 FIFA World Cup, where it was considered one of the best venues for the tournament. Regardless, it's...

    If it wasn't already clear, Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) made it very clear this week that he doesn't intend to have the Senate take up Republican legislative priorities - not the SAVE America Act, and not keeping the government open.

    The European Commission has officially refused to register the pan-European remigration and anti-immigration campaign ‘Save Europe Act’ as a European Citizens’ Initiative (ECI). On Wednesday, 22 July, organizers announced that Brussels considered the initiative’s aims—to halt open-ended non-Western mass immigration and protect the demographic continuity of Europe’s indigenous population—to constitute ‘racial discrimination’ against third-country nationals and to be ‘contrary to EU values’. ‘Their motivation is vague, weak and telling of their true anti-democratic nature,’ the campaign said in a post on X, accusing the Commission of ‘discarding the voices of nearly 600,000 European patriots’. At the time of writing, the...

    “When you build a new house, make a parapet around your roof so that you may not bring the guilt of bloodshed on your house if someone falls from the roof.” Deuteronomy 22:8 (NIV) At first, this sounds like a small command. Put a railing around your roof. But it tells us something beautiful about God. God knows people fall. So he tells his people to do more than warn one another. He tells them to build mercy into the house. Do not wait until someone is broken on the ground. Put something between them and the edge. ****************** The...

    The influx of troops, medics and weaponry follows the deaths of three American soldiers in Iranian weekend attack WASHINGTON—The U.S. is surging forces, medics and weaponry to the Middle East to give President Trump more muscular military options as he considers expanding the conflict against Iran, according to people familiar with the matter.In the past week, special-operations forces have deployed to the region from their U.S. bases, according to flight-tracking data and U.S. officials. Squadrons of jet fighters have been staged across the Middle East, and bomber aircraft at bases in the U.S. and U.K. are on high alert to...

    Crossings through the Strait have fallen sharply across multiple shipping datasets with renewed U.S. strikes on Iran, Tehran’s declaration of a blanket ban on maritime traffic and fresh attacks on commercial vessels has prompted operators to reassess the risks of entering the Gulf. Lloyd’s List Intelligence recorded just 53 vessel transits in the week through July 20, down 66% from 157 the previous week. Tanker and gas carrier movements, which are the ships responsible for transporting most Gulf crude oil and liquefied natural gas, dropped to 30 crossings from 90. Kpler data similarly show activity deteriorating almost immediately after the...

    The Trump v. Barbara ruling did not destroy President Trump's ability to limit birthright citizenship for birth tourists from China or other specific countries. Upon release of the Trump v. Barbara opinion overruling the President’s Executive Order blocking automatic citizenship to children born in the United States to illegal aliens and visiting tourists, President Trump congratulated President Xi and China on their “massive Birthright Citizenship WIN,” warning the ruling hands foreign nationals a golden ticket to U.S. passports for their children. Indeed, the ruling was disappointing. It leaves wide gaps for individuals, cartels, and hostile nations to exploit our laws...

Because I also think the Iranians are overreaching at this moment in the conflict . . . They also feel...

Siad had not yet been questioned by investigators, but had denied the allegations, saying he wanted to be heard and give his version of events. 'An investigation to determine the cause of death was opened on Monday evening following the discovery,' the Nanterre prosecutor's office said. An autopsy will be carried...
