House Passes Bipartisan Resolution Denouncing Socialism After Socialist Mayor-Elect Victory in New York City
In a strong bipartisan rebuke to the growing influence of socialist ideology within the Democrat Party, the U.S. House of Representatives voted 285-98 on November 21st, to approve a resolution introduced by Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar (R-FL) that denounces socialism in all its forms and opposes the implementation of socialist policies in the United States, citing the historical atrocities and economic failures under regimes in Cuba, China, and Venezuela; the measure gained support from 86 Democrats who joined nearly all Republicans in affirming America’s commitment to free markets and individual liberty, coming just weeks after self-described democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani’s election as New York City mayor-elect on November 4, 2025, where even House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), who had endorsed Mamdani, voted in favor alongside centrists like Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-NY) who have publicly rejected far-left economic approaches in favor of practical, pro-growth solutions.

House Oversight Enforces Subpoenas for Clinton Epstein Depositions
House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer has rejected an attempt by former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to avoid in-person depositions by submitting written statements instead, ordering the couple to appear under their existing August subpoenas for questioning about their documented personal associations with the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and his accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell as part of a congressional investigation into Epstein-related matters, with Bill Clinton scheduled to testify on December 17 and Hillary Clinton on December 18 after their attorney’s November 3 request for leniency was denied on the grounds that the committee requires direct examination of information tied to relationships maintained outside official government duties.

Trump Administration Enforces Welfare Reform Law Against Illegal Immigrant Tax Benefits
The U.S. Treasury Department has announced forthcoming regulations that will classify the refundable portions of key income tax credits—including the Earned Income Tax Credit, Additional Child Tax Credit, American Opportunity Tax Credit, and Saver’s Match Credit—as federal public benefits subject to the restrictions of the 1996 Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act, thereby barring illegal immigrants and certain non-qualified foreign nationals from receiving these payments even when filed using Individual Taxpayer Identification Numbers; this measure, supported by a recent Department of Justice Office of Legal Counsel opinion and set to apply starting with the 2026 tax year, fulfills longstanding statutory intent to reserve taxpayer-funded benefits for lawful U.S. citizens and qualified residents, as emphasized by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent who stated the administration is committed to enforcing existing law and directing resources only to those legally entitled.

Supreme Court Confronts Climate Lawfare Campaigns
The United States Supreme Court is preparing to address critical jurisdictional questions in lawsuits filed by activist-led localities against American energy producers, determining whether these so-called climate nuisance cases—seeking billions in damages for alleged contributions to global emissions—belong in sympathetic state courts or must be resolved in federal courts under established constitutional principles and federal common law; in one granted case originating from Louisiana parishes suing oil companies for coastal erosion tied to World War II-era production activities performed as federal contractors, energy firms successfully petitioned for review with oral arguments set for January 12th, asserting proper removal to federal jurisdiction, while a separate petition from companies including Suncor Energy challenging Boulder County, Colorado’s claims of state-law violations causing local wildfires and droughts remains under consideration, backed by the Trump administration’s position that states lack authority to regulate interstate or out-of-state emissions without fracturing national energy policy.

Democrat Jasmine Crockett’s Lack of Research Finds Her Falsely Accusing EPA Administrator of Epstein Tie
During a November 18th, House floor debate over a failed Republican effort to censure Democrat Delegate Stacey Plaskett for her documented ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, Texas Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett attempted to deflect criticism by claiming her staff’s rapid research uncovered campaign donations from “somebody named Jeffrey Epstein” to several Republicans and entities, specifically naming EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin, Mitt Romney, the NRCC, George Bush, WinRed, the McCain-Palin campaign, and Rick Lazio, while asserting FEC filings supported the allegations and vowing Democrats would “expose it all” amid congressional demands for full release of Epstein’s sex trafficking files. Federal Election Commission records quickly revealed the donations to Zeldin’s prior campaigns totaled $1,500 in 2020 from two unrelated individuals sharing the name—one a Manhasset, New York physician and another a New Jersey beverage distributor—both occurring after the notorious Jeffrey Epstein’s August 2019 death in custody, with no connection whatsoever to the deceased offender. Zeldin promptly corrected the record on X, stating the donor was “a physician named Dr. Jeffrey Epstein (who is a totally different person than the other Jeffrey Epstein)” and emphasizing “No freakin’ relation you genius!!!” as the episode highlighted sloppy opposition research in a high-stakes political exchange tied to ongoing Epstein scrutiny.

Minnesota Taxpayer Funds Diverted to Al-Shabaab Through Welfare Fraud Schemes
A Manhattan Institute investigation reveals that billions in Minnesota taxpayer dollars intended for welfare programs, including the Feeding Our Future child nutrition initiative that ballooned from $3.4 million to nearly $200 million in federal reimbursements through fabricated meal sites and invoices, the Medicaid Housing Stabilization Services program that exploded from a projected $2.6 million to over $61 million in claims amid fictitious providers targeting vulnerable residents, and a $14 million autism services fraud involving kickbacks for fraudulent diagnoses, have been systematically stolen primarily by networks within the state’s Somali community, with federal counterterrorism sources confirming millions of these diverted funds transferred via hawala money trader systems to Somalia where they ultimately reached the al Qaeda-affiliated terrorist group Al-Shabaab, as evidenced by ongoing federal indictments exceeding 70 defendants and statements from prosecutors describing an interconnected web of fraud draining public resources while a confidential law enforcement source declared that the largest funder of Al-Shabaab is the Minnesota taxpayer.

Justice Department Accelerates Hiring of Immigration Judges for Enforcement Priorities
The Department of Justice has initiated a major recruitment drive for immigration judges, with positions available at over 70 locations across the country offering competitive base salaries from $159,951 to $207,500 annually, a 25 percent recruitment incentive, and full-time remote work options, requiring applicants to be U.S. citizens in good standing with a state bar, possess at least seven years of professional legal experience as a licensed attorney, demonstrate comprehensive knowledge of immigration laws and procedures, and exhibit the judicial temperament necessary for independent decision-making in high-volume removal proceedings; this effort supports the Trump administration’s commitment to reducing immigration court backlogs exceeding millions of cases and expediting deportations to uphold federal immigration statutes, as Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has stated these judges are essential for restoring order and ensuring the efficient enforcement of laws that safeguard American communities and national security.

Foreign National Rapper Receives 14-Year Sentence for Foreign-Funded Illegal Contributions to Obama Campaign
Federal prosecutors successfully demonstrated that Grammy-winning Fugees member Prakazrel “Pras” Michel acted as an unregistered foreign agent when he accepted over $120 million from fugitive Malaysian financier Jho Low and channeled portions through approximately 20 straw donors to support Barack Obama’s 2012 presidential reelection effort in clear violation of U.S. campaign finance laws prohibiting foreign nationals from influencing American elections; following his 2023 conviction on ten counts including conspiracy, witness tampering, and perjury, a Washington D.C. district judge imposed a 14-year prison term, three years of supervised release, and a $64 million forfeiture order on November 20, 2025, after prosecutors argued Michel betrayed national interests through greed-driven schemes that also involved attempts to quash a Justice Department investigation into Low’s multibillion-dollar embezzlement from Malaysia’s 1MDB fund.

Chicago Mayor Dismisses Horrific CTA Fire Attack as “Isolated Incident” Despite Repeat Offender’s History
Chicago’s Marxist Mayor Brandon Johnson downplayed a brutal attack on the city’s Blue Line train where Lawrence Reed, a 50-year-old career criminal with 49 prior arrests, multiple felony convictions, and at least 13 arrests since 2017, allegedly doused a female passenger with flammable liquid and set her ablaze while shouting threats, labeling the incident merely “an isolated incident” rather than acknowledging it as part of broader public safety failures under soft-on-crime policies that allow dangerous repeat offenders back on the streets; Johnson refused to address the suspect’s lengthy rap sheet directly, instead emphasizing increased investments in public transportation to make riders “feel safe” and trusting federal authorities for accountability, even as critics highlight how progressive criminal justice approaches have contributed to rising violent crime on Chicago’s transit system amid recent stabbings and other assaults.

Trump Administration Challenges California Tuition Benefits for Illegal Aliens
The United States Department of Justice, under Attorney General Pamela Bondi, has filed a federal lawsuit in the Eastern District of California against the State of California, Governor Gavin Newsom, and the governing boards of the University of California, California State University, and California Community Colleges systems, alleging that state laws granting in-state tuition rates, state-funded scholarships, and subsidized loans to illegal aliens violate federal statutes by discriminating against out-of-state American citizens who are denied the same reduced rates while creating unlawful incentives for illegal immigration; the complaint specifically targets provisions requiring public institutions to provide these benefits based on residency regardless of lawful presence and the California Dream Act extending financial aid to those unlawfully present, seeking injunctions to enforce compliance with federal law prohibiting such preferential treatment for illegal aliens, in line with recent executive orders ending taxpayer subsidization of open borders and protecting American communities from criminal aliens, marking the third such action against California in a single week following similar successful challenges in states including Texas, Kentucky, Illinois, Oklahoma, and Minnesota.

Chinese Spy Cortisan Eric Swalwell Launches Bid for California Governor
California Democrat Congressman Eric Swalwell, a vocal Trump impeachment manager, who has faced scrutiny over a sexual relationship with a communist Chinese spy named Christine Fang, formally announced his 2026 gubernatorial campaign on November 20th, positioning himself as California’s “fighter and protector” amid high living costs, public safety concerns, and a manufactured perception that California needs to be shielded from President Trump’s policies on immigration enforcement and federal overreach. Swalwell, son of a law enforcement officer and raised in a Republican household, emphasized priorities like lowering prices, boosting business growth, modernizing infrastructure, and ensuring public safety for all residents regardless of party, while explicitly pledging to “keep Trump out of our homes, streets and lives” and prevent scenarios such as workers fleeing ICE agents or cuts to state priorities, entering a crowded field to succeed term-limited Governor Gavin Newsom that includes Democrats like Xavier Becerra, Katie Porter, and Tom Steyer alongside Republicans such as Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco.

DNC Financial Strain Deepens with Unusual $15 Million Loan
Federal Election Commission filings reveal that the Democrat National Committee borrowed $15 million in October 2025 through a line of credit, leaving it with just $18.3 million in cash on hand entering November, of which the vast majority stemmed directly from that loan, while carrying no prior debt but facing depleted reserves after paying off lingering 2024 campaign expenses and investing in recent state-level races; this early-cycle borrowing stands in stark contrast to the Republican National Committee’s robust $91.2 million in cash reserves and zero debt, highlighting a significant fundraising disadvantage for Democrats as they rebuild operations, expand staffing, and prepare for the 2026 midterms amid donor hesitation following the previous election cycle’s setbacks.
Lancet Series Reveals Ultra-Processed Foods Linked to Harm Across Every Major Organ System
A comprehensive review of evidence published as a three-paper series in The Lancet medical journal, involving 43 international experts and drawing from over 100 long-term studies encompassing millions of participants, establishes that consumption of ultra-processed foods—such items as ready meals, sugary beverages, packaged snacks, and fast food—is associated with adverse health outcomes affecting nearly every major organ system in the human body, including heightened risks of cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, obesity, certain cancers, depression, and premature mortality from all causes, with mechanisms including overeating due to hyper-palatability, nutrient deficiencies, exposure to harmful additives and contaminants, and disruption of natural food matrices that traditionally support human biology and self-reliance in nutrition.

National Survey Reveals Widespread COVID-19 Vaccine Side Effects Among Americans
A November 2024 Rasmussen Reports national survey of 1,292 American adults, conducted with a margin of error of +/- 3 percentage points, found that 68 percent received at least one COVID-19 vaccination, yet among the vaccinated, only 60 percent reported no side effects while 26 percent experienced minor ones and 10 percent suffered major side effects requiring medical attention or impacting daily life; extrapolating to the nation’s 258 million adults, this equates to approximately 63 million individuals facing some form of adverse reaction, including over 17 million enduring significant health complications from the shots, with men under 40 and Hispanics showing higher rates of major issues, marking an increase from a 2022 survey where just 7 percent reported major effects.

Breakthrough Hormone Research Offers Hope in Battling ALS Progression
Recent scientific investigation has revealed that elevated levels of the stress-responsive hormone fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21), produced primarily in skeletal muscle, are markedly higher in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis patients compared to healthy individuals, with plasma concentrations correlating directly to substantially longer survival times and reduced rates of disease advancement; patients exhibiting FGF21 blood levels at least 1.5 times above normal experienced median post-diagnosis survival exceeding six years versus just 18 months in those with lower levels, alongside preserved body mass index and evidence of protective effects against oxidative stress in motor neurons and muscle cells, positioning FGF21 as both a promising prognostic biomarker and a viable target for therapies aimed at mitigating the relentless motor neuron degeneration characteristic of this devastating condition, as demonstrated through human tissue analyses, plasma studies, and preclinical models.

Is The Far-Left Attempting A Slow-Burning
Color Revolution In The United States?
“In the dim corridors of American democracy, where the fluorescent hum of complacency once drowned out the whispers of subversion, a crimson specter now stirs. The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), that self-anointed vanguard of “progress,” gleefully tout their latest electoral conquests as harbingers of a benevolent new dawn. Zohran Mamdani’s seismic victory in New York City, part of a coast-to-coast socialist surge that netted DSA-endorsed candidates a staggering 12 wins in the 2025 cycle—four in New York alone—has the far-Left champagne corks popping…”

Americans Arrested in Scheme to Smuggle Advanced Nvidia AI Chips to China
The Department of Justice has unsealed federal charges against two U.S. citizens—Hon Ning “Mathew” Ho of Tampa, Florida, and Brian Curtis Raymond of Huntsville, Alabama—and two Chinese nationals residing in the United States, Cham “Tony” Li and Jing “Harry” Chen, for conspiring to illegally export restricted Nvidia graphics processing units critical to artificial intelligence development, in direct violation of U.S. export controls designed to prevent such technology from bolstering the Chinese Communist Party’s military modernization and weapons programs; from September 2023 through November 2025, the defendants allegedly used a Tampa-based front company posing as a real estate firm to purchase and reroute hundreds of Nvidia A100, H100, and H200 GPUs worth millions through Malaysia and Thailand to evade detection, successfully shipping 400 A100 units while law enforcement intercepted subsequent attempts involving supercomputers and additional chips, with the operation funded by over $3.8 million in wire transfers from PRC-linked entities and involving falsified documents to conceal the true destination.

China Builds Global Naval Dominance Threatening American Security
The 2025 annual report from the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission documents Beijing’s rapid transformation of the People’s Liberation Army Navy into a true blue-water force capable of sustained global operations, with over 370 battle-force ships in 2024 projected to expand to 395 in 2025 and 435 by 2030 while advancing power projection through dual-use ports across Africa, Latin America, and Asia under the Belt and Road Initiative, conducting far-seas exercises in distant waters like the Tasman Sea, deploying multiple aircraft carriers beyond the first island chain, and rehearsing blockade and strike operations against Taiwan—all part of a calculated strategy to undermine U.S. influence in the Indo-Pacific, secure critical sea lanes, and position China to challenge American naval supremacy worldwide if current trends persist.

EU Advances Military Schengen Initiative for Rapid Force Deployment
The European Commission has introduced a comprehensive military mobility package designed to establish a “Military Schengen” zone by 2027, enabling swift cross-border movement of troops, tanks, and heavy equipment across the 27-member bloc by harmonizing regulations, streamlining permitting processes to a maximum of three days in peacetime and six hours in crises, and upgrading critical infrastructure such as bridges, railways, and ports to handle military loads, all in direct response to persistent security threats from Russia’s ongoing aggression in Ukraine and hybrid warfare tactics that demand stronger collective deterrence and defense capabilities aligned with NATO standards.

Armed Gunmen Abduct Dozens from Nigerian Catholic School Amid Persistent Insecurity
In yet another grim reminder of the breakdown in law and order plaguing northern Nigeria, armed bandits stormed St. Mary’s Catholic boarding school in the Papiri community of Agwara local government area in Niger State early Friday morning, November 21st, abducting 52 schoolchildren aged 12-17 along with staff members despite prior government warnings of heightened terrorist threats that had prompted orders for boarding schools to close; the state government condemned the attack and noted that the school had reopened without clearance, exposing vulnerable students to grave danger in a region long plagued by jihadist insurgencies and criminal gangs that target Christian institutions and demand ransoms, with Nigeria’s federal ban on ransom payments carrying severe penalties underscoring the challenge to public safety and religious freedom in Africa’s most populous nation.

Survey Reveals One Third of Regular Churchgoers Favor Socialism Over Capitalism
A nationwide survey of 1,003 American adults who attend Christian church services at least monthly, commissioned by the Family Research Council and conducted in July 2025 by the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University under researcher George Barna, documents that 32 percent of regular churchgoers now prefer socialism as an economic system while fewer than half (46 percent) explicitly support capitalism and 22 percent remain undecided, figures that remain statistically unchanged from a similar 2023 study despite broader cultural shifts; the data further indicate stronger socialist leanings among younger attendees, higher-income households, African Americans, and those lacking a biblical worldview, alongside a growing moderate ideological identification among churchgoers rising from 19 percent to 29 percent in two years, underscoring a persistent erosion of traditional free-market principles rooted in Scripture within segments of America’s worshipping population.
