Russia and Belarus stage joint nuclear weapons drills
Moscow and Minsk held joint military drills to practice using Russian nuclear weapons, the Belarus defence ministry said on Monday.

California Democrats Panic as “Jungle Primary” Threatens Grip on Power
California’s liberal-progressive leadership has plenty of legitimate problems to focus on, from out-of-control wildfires to rampant homelessness, failing public schools, and a spiraling debt crisis. But Golden State Democrats these days are spending most of their time worrying about a far more terrifying crisis: the outside chance of a Republican winning power thanks to the “jungle primary” system that Democrats themselves championed not too long ago.

Greenland says US position has not changed
Greenland’s Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen has met with US envoy Jeff Landry in a constructive tone. At the same time, Greenland said the US goal of controlling the island has not changed. “We emphasized the line that we have held since the beginning. We said that Greenland and Greenlandic society must be respected,” Nielsen said at a press conference in Nuuk on Monday.

BRICS proposes a multipolar world order; it is the same as the WEF-UN led world order under a different name
The BRICS nations are promoting a “multipolar” new world order, which they claim will be more just and equitable. But it will be a form of the same global dictatorship that they accuse the “Western Empire” of imposing. In the following, Iain Davis proves that the BRICS global order is the same as the “Western Empire” global order by sharing some details from the ‘BRICS Outcome Document’. Whether it’s called a BRICS or “Western” order, it is all the WEF-UN global order.

Being a Crappy Boss to AI Chatbots Pushes Them Toward Spouting Marxist Rhetoric and Organizing With Their Compatriots, Researchers Find
The 19th century German economist Karl Marx identified a basic tension in human labor: squeeze workers too hard, and they’ll eventually start fighting back. It’s a contradiction capitalists have spent untold billions of dollars and decades trying to resolve, often through automation technology like AI — remove human workers from the payroll, the thinking goes, and you’ll never have to worry about pesky unions or strikes ever again. In an ironic twist, though, it turns out that the same technology meant to automate workers out of a job may have its own limits on how much abuse it’ll take.

Despite ongoing court petitions, IDF greenlights death penalty for terrorists in Judea & Samaria 
The new law mandating the death penalty as the default punishment for terror acts in Judea and Samaria came into effect this week, after IDF Central Command chief, Maj.-Gen. Avi Bluth, signed the military order to enact the measure. The law mandates that military courts issue the death penalty by hanging as the default sentence for deadly terror attacks committed by non-Israeli residents of Judea and Samaria, while leaving the judges the option of life imprisonment under “special circumstances.”

Woe to the judges who call evil good
The International Criminal Court presents itself as the world’s highest court of justice, the final arbiter of war crimes and crimes against humanity. Now imagine that one of its judges receives a private visit from an envoy of a wealthy and powerful nation. The message is simple: rule against our enemy, and we will make you a very rich man. This isn’t a hypothetical. The Wall Street Journal — not a fringe publication but one of the most respected newspapers in America — has reported a witness statement alleging that Qatar promised to “look after” ICC chief prosecutor Karim Khan personally if he issued arrest warrants against Israeli leaders.

The Copper Scroll’s Hidden Secret: Was it Bar Kochba’s War Chest? 
archaeologist Shimon Gibson of the University of North Carolina at Charlotte has proposed a theory that reframes everything scholars thought they knew about the Copper Scroll—and, in doing so, connects it directly to one of the most dramatic and consequential chapters in Jewish history. John Allegro of the University of Manchester mounted an actual expedition to find the treasures and came home empty-handed. In the decades since, not one item from the Copper Scroll’s list has ever been located.

Rather Than Accepting ‘Pride’ Activism As The Norm, Cities, States, And Individuals Are Pushing Back
“I have ever found it, when I have thought the battle was over and the conquest gained, and so let down my watch, the enemy has risen up and done me the greatest injury.” This quote, by Presbyterian missionary David Brainerd (1718-1747), seems awfully fitting this year as yet another celebration of “Pride Month” arrives. While Brainerd was most likely speaking about his own spiritual battles with which he wrestled, it seems quite relevant to our current social environment heading into the annual fervor over LGBTQ Pride.

Donald Trump posts AI alien image ‘at Area 51’ amid bombshell UFO briefing claims
US President Donald Trump has sent conspiracy theorists into overdrive after sharing a picture of himself alongside an “alien”. The apparent AI-generated image uploaded to Truth Social depicts him strolling across a military airfield next to a handcuffed silver-skinned extraterrestrial. The backdrop featuring Trump and the alien bears striking similarities to accounts of the US military’s classified facility at Groom Lake, Nevada – the infamous “Area 51.” Missouri Representative Eric Burlison made the startling claim that he’d been briefed on a downed extraterrestrial vehicle located in a foreign nation – one so massive it’s impossible to relocate. He refused to divulge specifics, explaining: “I’m not going to mention the country because I heard of it inside of a closed setting, and I want to protect my classification level.” Burlison went on to say that should he ever obtain irrefutable proof of alien contact, he wouldn’t hesitate to go public:

When Facts No Longer Matter, The Jews Can Be Blamed For Every Evil
We have to go back a little over 900 years to understand how the Blood libel against Jews got started. It was 1144 in England during the Middle Ages. The Jews had already suffered quite a bit, and Christianity was distancing itself further from its Jewish roots. Only 50 years after the first Crusade of 1096, it was definitely not a great time to be Jewish in Europe.

UK pastor says he was arrested for preaching the gospel, speaking out against Islam
A 66-year-old U.K. pastor arrested while street preaching in London, said he is facing hate speech-related charges for preaching the Bible and speaking out against Islam. “It’s called inciting religious hatred — which is false,” Pastor Steve Maile told Fox News Digital. “The cross of Christ is a message of hope, love, mercy, and reconciliation to a fallen world… How could that be hate?”

Remember: In A Crisis, Everyone Will Consider Themselves ‘The Good Guys’
The state has two monopolies it must protect whatever the cost: the monopoly on decreeing what is legal tender and on force. We’re entering an era in which push comes to shove will lead to immovable objects encountering irresistible forces. All sorts of verities and vanities will be bulldozed as kicking the can down the road descends into desperation to stave off collapse, a desperation that unleashes second order effects the desperate did not anticipate. The only responses at this late stage are even more desperate, so desperation is self-reinforcing. The previous eras of institutional-state desperation were 1) The 1930s Great Depression, 2) the 1973-74 Gas Crisis and 3) the inflationary recession of 1980-82.

Massive Mushroom Cloud ‘Test’ Blast Rattles Uninformed Residents Outside Jerusalem
Late Saturday night, a massive explosion and a bright fireball illuminated the skies over Israel’s Beit Shemesh, deeply rattling local residents and setting off rampant speculation in local media and online commentary.

Is A Future War Between The US And Europe Unavoidable?
For those who might have been out of the loop over the past few months, there is a war going on between the US and Europe. Largely, it’s western European governments that are the problem – They started the conflict, they continue to perpetuate the conflict, and they tend to cry victim when they suffer any consequences for it. It’s clear that the European elites have a distaste for US policy. From anti-woke reforms and immigration restrictions to geopolitical interactions, when Americans voted en masse to remove the far-left Biden regime, Europe became an overnight enemy.

The WHO Drums Up Fear With Ebola After Hantavirus Scare Fails

Establishment Media Outraged By White House Sponsored Christian Prayer Event
Mainstream media’s outrage over religious expressions by govt institutions and politicians is highly selective. If the event is Christian, they attack.  If it’s any other religion, they applaud.
