How Trump’s Fracking Bet Is Paying Off in Iran
While the Iran conflict has led to higher gasoline prices for American drivers (although even those are beginning to come down), it has also underscored the importance of U.S. energy independence — and particularly the natural gas extraction technique known as hydraulic fracturing, or “fracking.” President Donald Trump’s efforts to prioritize domestic energy production throughout both of his terms in office now look like more than just sound economics. They look like a geopolitical masterstroke.
On the Iran War, NATO Chief Agrees With Trump — The Media Buried the Lede
Why do so many Americans oppose the war against Iran? The biggest reason is that they do not believe Iran was close to obtaining a nuclear weapon. If Iran was nowhere near a bomb, President Donald Trump’s decision to use military force looks unnecessary, even reckless. But if Iran was close, as Trump claims, the debate changes dramatically. That is why NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte’s recent assessment should have been a major news story.
DARPA Wants to Build an Army of 100,000 AI Agents That Can Think and Act on Their Own
The future of military artificial intelligence may not be a single all-knowing machine directing a battlefield from a distant command center. Instead, DARPA is preparing to explore enormous collectives of AI agents capable of organizing themselves, dividing up missions, adapting to chaos, and continuing to operate even when some members of the group fail, disappear, or go rogue. By the program’s final phase, DARPA wants researchers to test simulated collectives involving as many as 100,000 AI agents exchanging up to 1 million messages as they work toward shared objectives.

Huge iceberg, 6 kilometers long, drifting along Greenland’s east coast
A huge iceberg – almost six kilometers long and four kilometers wide – is currently drifting along Greenland’s eastern coast, according to the Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI).

Hamas terrorists storm UN food warehouse and assault aid workers as ceasefire obligations go unmet
Armed Hamas terrorists forced their way into a World Food Programme warehouse and food distribution site in northern Gaza on Saturday, assaulting two truck drivers and halting aid deliveries to thousands of families who depend on the site daily. The raid, confirmed by the United Nations’ own humanitarian coordinator for the region, exposes yet again the reality that Israel has documented since the war began: the terrorist organization ruling Gaza treats humanitarian aid as a resource to be seized, not a lifeline to be protected.
The reason Iran has avoided attacking Israel so far
In the past week, Iran shattered a fragile detente by launching a massive wave of missile and drone attacks targeting US military bases and facilities across the Gulf, including in Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, the UAE, Oman, and Jordan. These strikes have triggered air raid sirens, caused material damage, and resulted in injuries from falling debris during interceptions. Simultaneously, the IRGC has intensified its campaign in the Strait of Hormuz, attacking commercial vessels, declaring the waterway closed to navigation, and threatening to halt all regional energy exports. Incredibly, during this entire time, Iran has not shot a single missile at Israel, perhaps its most hated enemy, as it has in the past. Why?
Israeli experts argues that Iran is afraid to escalate its attacks on Israel because Tehran’s aggressive rhetoric has no actual backing in reality,
The Revolutionary Guard may accept deals but never peace
For many observers of Iranian politics, the most important question after the 2026 war and ceasefire is whether the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps would support the Memorandum of Understanding and whether the Memorandum could lead to a fundamental change in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ identity and strategy. The Guard’s own messaging suggests the answer is no.

More than 60% of the Gaza Strip is now under Israeli military control, according to Maj. Gen. Avi Bluth, head of the IDF’s Central Command, marking a significant expansion beyond the territory Israel was authorized to retain temporarily under the October 2025 ceasefire agreement with Hamas.

‘We’re In An Existential War With America’: Iranian Leaders Vow To Retaliate As US Expands Strikes
The U.S. military launched two more waves of attacks on Iran’s coastal defenses and missile sites on Wednesday after reimposing a naval blockade on Iranian traffic through the Strait of Hormuz.

103 House Democrats Back Measure Their Own Whip Said Could Cut Aid to Palestinians
More than 100 House Democrats voted Wednesday to eliminate U.S. funding for Israel—even after their party’s second-ranking House leader warned that the measure’s sweeping language could also block humanitarian assistance for Palestinian refugees and civilians in Gaza. The amendment, introduced by Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY), failed by a vote of 314–104. Massie supplied the only Republican vote in favor, while 103 Democrats supported the measure and 10 voted present. The proposal would have barred any funding appropriated under the State Department spending bill from being “obligated or expended for Israel” and separately reduced the foreign-military-financing account by $3.3 billion—the amount allocated for Israel’s annual security assistance.

In response to the recent news that Obamacare enrollment dropped by nearly three million from February 2025 to February 2026, elected Democrats and the liberal media are hysterically claiming that the Trump administration is ripping people off their insurance, blaming the expiration of COVID-era expanded subsidies. But the real reason Obamacare enrollment is down is far simpler: President Trump’s aggressive crackdown on fraud.

The Woke Church’s Latest Blasphemy: Rainbow Communion Bread
Christ Episcopal Church in Dayton used rainbow communion bread during a Pride celebration to celebrate/include its LGBTQ members. Communion’s purpose is never to celebrate identity, affirm causes, or reflect values of the culture. It exists to proclaim the sacrifice of Christ. That is why this controversy reaches far beyond one church in Ohio.

Infrastructure War! The Middle East Braces for What Is Coming Next as Both Sides Go Up the Escalation Ladder
Targeting military assets won’t wreck the global economy; targeting key infrastructure could. The damage already done to oil & gas infrastructure in the MidEast will take years to fully repair. So far, damage is somewhat limited. If both sides start conducting all-out attacks on oil & gas infrastructure, the world will face an unprecedented energy crisis.

A journalist bravely took on the Dearborn, MI, city council to argue for equal representation for Christians and Jews in the city.
