Communist Rhetoric – Dangerous
Communists killed 148 million people in the last century. The Cold War ended Soviet Communism. Communist China still oppresses hundreds of millions. How can America – founded on individual liberty, “land of the free and home of the brave” – now be awash in Communist rhetoric? Shockingly, that is where we are. From Colorado and Minnesota to New York and Maine, rudderless, dependent, and often violent Communists push class warfare, property taking, and far-left ideology. “At the center of the May Day mobilization …is a network of communist, socialist, Marxist and other far-left organizations… Democratic Socialists of America … People’s Forum, Party for Socialism and Liberation, ANSWER Coalition, and Code Pink… funded by an American-born tech tycoon, Neville Roy Singham

Trump Expands Access to Retirement Savings for American Workers
Thanks to a new executive order from President Donald Trump, millions of American workers could have greater access to retirement savings that empower them to thrive as they age – and some could even receive matching contributions from the federal government. Currently, about 54 million Americans don’t have access to an employer-based retirement plan like a 401(k), which often includes an employer match on contributions. Trump’s order aims to change that by instructing Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent to create a new website called TrumpIRA.gov which will “allow workers to filter and compare IRAs based on cost, quality, and investment options.”

The IRGC Shifts Iran’s Real Power from the Supreme Leader to Its Own Command
Mojtaba Khamenei’s selection as Supreme Leader has sharply limited his authority, making his role largely symbolic, as he now primarily endorses, rather than drives, state decisions. Senior security officials state that Israeli intelligence agencies have now assembled a comprehensive assessment of who truly controls Iran. Evidently, Mojtaba Khamenei remains hidden at an undisclosed location, known only to a select few, due to fears he could be targeted by Israel. Defense Minister Israel Katz stated that Israel may soon target Mojtaba Khamenei. On April 23, after a security briefing, Katz said: “We await a U.S. green light to eliminate the Khamenei dynasty and its successors.”

A couple of hundred French Jewish doctors interested in moving to Israel gathered in Paris on Sunday in a major immigration fair for medical professionals.

DOJ Sues Minnesota To Block Climate Lawsuit Targeting Energy Companies
The complaint, filed Monday in the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota, accuses state officials of trying to impose their own climate policies on domestic energy producers in a way the DOJ says burdens national energy development and intrudes on federal authority. The underlying lawsuit was filed in 2020 by Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison against Exxon Mobil, the American Petroleum Institute, Koch Industries, and Koch subsidiary Flint Hills Resources. Minnesota brought the case under state consumer-protection laws, alleging that the companies engaged in fraud and deceptive business practices by misleading the public about “climate change and the role of fossil-fuel products in climate change.”

Alberta Separatists Say They Have Enough Signatures To Force Referendum On Leaving Canada
A group pushing for Alberta to break free from Canada announced Monday that it has submitted nearly double the number of signatures required to force a referendum — which could come as early as October. While Alberta Premier Danielle Smith opposes independence, she has assured Albertans that she will not try to thwart a referendum if the signature hurdle were cleared. Alberta has been on the wrong end of a Canadian policy called “Equalization” — a more palatable term than what it should be called: “Wealth Redistribution.” According to the Canadian government’s official description, Equalization “address[es] fiscal disparities among provinces.” It does so by distributing the fiscal fruits of federal taxation to provinces in such a way that poorer provinces get more money than more-prosperous ones. Alberta is easily Canada’s best-off province on a per-capita basis.

The Truth About What Is Really Going on in The Strait of Hormuz
Iran is not telling the truth about what is going on in the Strait of Hormuz. Neither is the Pentagon. On Monday, a few commercial vessels were able to get through. On Tuesday, that dropped to zero.

The 2026 Bee Crisis: What’s Happening and How You Can Help.
Beekeepers across the US reported losing over 48% of their managed colonies in the most recent annual survey, unthinkable 20 years ago. That’s not a one-year anomaly.

Worst spring drought in 131 years grips 63% of the US with no end in sight.
The facts aren’t in dispute: the US entered 2026 with the driest first quarter in over a century, and a majority of the Lower 48 is already in some stage of drought. Federal forecasters see dryness persisting, and, in many places, intensifying through spring, driven by low snowpack, parched soils, and an ocean pattern that offers no easy path to widespread relief.
