Andy McCarthy — conservative lawyer, Fox News legal analyst, National Review contributor… acknowledges the $500 MILLION UAE-crypto bribe right before Trump took office is far worse than anything even alleged about Biden.

FAMU can't use the word Black on anything posted around campus related to Black History Month, to stay in compliance with Florida state laws against DEI. Black students can't use the word Black at their Historically Black College during Black History Month.

UPDATE: Alberto Castañeda Mondragón suffered 8 skull fractures and brain hemorrhages after a severe beating by ICE agents.

He has no criminal record.

As of now, there is STILL no federal investigation.

For a few days, he forgot he has a daughter due to the severity of his brain injuries.

The Heritage Foundation’s “save the family” plan isn’t about saving anyone. It’s about dragging women back 60 years—shrinking our choices, our power, our futures. We’re not going back. We’re building a world where women are equal #sheshed

JOHNSON’S RESPONSE MAY GO DOWN IN THE ANNALS OF AMERICAN MEDIA HISTORY:

“I WAS JUST LAID OFF BY THE WASHINGTON POST IN THE MIDDLE OF A WARZONE.”

🧵 It's Day 8 of #BlackHistoryMonth2026, my friends. I would be remiss if I did not mention the first Black woman to become an FBI agent. Today, let me introduce you to Sylvia Elizabeth Mathis.

Pull up a seat.🪑(cont)

It is nice to see at least one conservative publication acknowledging the most blatant corruption happening in the history of the US by far, but this will never be mentioned on Fox or Newsmax. On those networks, none of this is happening.

Epstein was in and out of Russia every few months according to his travel documents, but Mandelson was partying in nightclubs in St Petersburg and regularly in Moscow.

How did our intelligence services fail to pick this up? Or were their reports and investigations suppressed?

Just hopped off a phone call with my grandmother. And she said something that I’m going to carry with me today: “God doesn’t care about how much people talk about you, but He does care about how often you talk for people who can’t.”

I want to thank everyone who posts gift articles of really important stories that all Americans should read but are behind paywalls so most can’t.

There are some stories that are so important to the public interest that media companies should remove paywalls on some occasions.

The racist meme is (among many other things) a reminder, as if anyone needed it, that Trump's late-night posting-spree behavior on social media is not normal or healthy.

From what they’re saying, it’s someone close to Trump getting caught communicating with a foreign intelligence operative. I don’t know what it was related to, but I’m deeply concerned that the NSA Director and Deputy Director were both fired around the time of the complaint.

Early returns in Louisiana’s special election:

The Dem candidate is leading 58.5% to 41.5%. That’s with a third of the vote in.

Context: this is a Dem-held seat but in a district TRUMP carried by 13%, so has been a big/obvious GOP target. Stay tuned.
