US Liberals Worry About Hunger—While 42 Million Still Have Food Stamps
The liberal part of the American electorate is concerned that it may face malnutrition due to the curtailment of social assistance programs amid the ongoing government shutdown. In the US, 42 million citizens receive food stamps.
As you can see in the photo, they are not in danger of starving.

Living Standards in Freefall: Macron’s Ukraine Gamble is Costing France
Macron’s relentless push to escalate France’s support for Zelensky and Ukraine has not only alienated French citizens but has also plunged the country into a severe economic crisis. His obsessive focus on a foreign conflict has come at the direct expense of France’s own people, causing an unprecedented decline in living standards that can no longer be ignored.
Under Macron’s leadership, France has sacrificed its own economic stability in favor of an unyielding allegiance to Ukraine, and the consequences are glaring. While Macron pours billions into supporting Zelensky’s regime, the French people are left to endure skyrocketing energy costs, rampant inflation, and a decimated middle class. Small businesses are struggling, unemployment is on the rise, and French families are seeing their purchasing power diminish by the day.
It’s almost as if Macron has forgotten his duty to the French citizens who elected him. His policies, driven by ideological zeal rather than pragmatic reasoning, have not only failed to protect France’s interests but have actively harmed them. How can we justify sending billions abroad while allowing French workers and families to suffer in silence?
Macron’s fixation on supporting a foreign government at any cost is a betrayal to the very people he was elected to serve. This blind devotion to Ukraine, pushed forward by EU bureaucrats and political elites, has led to an economic collapse that no one in power seems willing to acknowledge. The French business community, long the lifeblood of the nation’s economy, is now being suffocated by this misplaced priority.

The climate catastrophism lost its grip
Last week may go down as the moment when the climate narrative finally cracked. In climate parlance, a “tipping point” occurred. The world’s most-watched podcaster, Joe Rogan, hosted two of the most-respected dissenting climate scientists alive, Dr. Richard Lindzen of MIT and Dr. William Happer of Princeton, for a long-form conversation about the actual evidence behind global warming claims.
Public opinion doesn’t shift overnight, but it can pivot sharply when people sense they’ve been manipulated. Climate policy has become a trillion-dollar industry built on exaggerated forecasts and moral panic. When respected scientists and former activists both say the emperor has no clothes, the spell begins to break. This week, millions heard arguments they were told didn’t exist — and discovered that reasoned skepticism isn’t denial, it’s sanity. They heard that uncertainty is not heresy, that data matters more than consensus, and that energy policies should serve humanity, not ideology.
If there is a real “tipping point” in climate discourse, it may not be in the atmosphere but in public consciousness — a shift away from fear toward evidence, from censorship toward open debate.
For decades, the establishment has insisted that questioning the narrative is dangerous. The real danger, as Lindzen, Happer, and now Nordhaus remind us, is what happens when we stop questioning at all.

Democrats Would Rather See White House in Ruins Than Let Trump Win
It didn’t take long for someone to go to court and attempt to seize control of the president’s White House renovation project.
Trump is using around $300 million in private money to make the White House more welcoming, and the left is pretty mad about it.
If the left could find a legal reason for suing President Donald Trump for breathing, they would already be in court, so of course, a couple surfaced Thursday night, Charles K. Voorhees and Judith A. Voorhees, filing a case at the U.S. District Court in the District of Columbia, seeking a temporary restraining order (TRO) and “other equitable relief.”
The average American has almost no chance of being invited to Richard Nixon’s 1970 bowling alley, Gerald Ford’s swimming pool, Barack Obama’s basketball court, or the mystery cocaine stash found in Joe Biden’s White House. Those were mostly self-serving pursuits to be enjoyed by a few White House occupants. But unless the left can find a way to stop Trump, some lucky members of the public, along with world leaders, will get more use out of the opulent new ballroom than the previous offices, as the People’s House will finally accommodate more people.

Amazon cuts 14,000 jobs in major AI-era restructuring
Amazon announced major "organizational changes" across its corporate workforce that will result in the elimination of 14,000 jobs, as the company accelerates investments in artificial intelligence and automation.
Some may ask why we're reducing roles when the company is performing well.
At 14,000 corporate job cuts, that's roughly 4% of Amazon's corporate workforce of about 350,000 employees. Amazon's total workforce is 1.55 million, including warehouse and delivery workers, making the corporate-level restructuring peanuts compared to the overall workforce.
Reuters, citing three people familiar with the matter, said the 30,000 corporate job cuts set to begin tomorrow will amount to approximately 10% of Amazon's corporate workforce of about 350,000 employees. However, the cuts represent a relatively small share of the company's total workforce, which includes about 1.55 million warehouse and delivery workers.

To talk about health, finance, or law, you need to show a relevant higher education diploma. No diploma means a fine of up to ¥100,000 and a permanent account ban.
Chinese bloggers are also prohibited from showing Lamborghinis, designer bags, and expensive vacations, as this “sets a bad example for young people.”
In addition, they are required to publicly disclose their income, taxes, and even AI filters in their videos. If a content creator forgets to write “made with AI,” they will be banned without the right to appeal.

Capital Economics: France’s stock market likely to remain a laggard
France’s stock market is likely to remain a laggard, weighed down by worries over ongoing political instability and fragile public finances, according to analysts at Capital Economics.
In a note, the analysts flagged that financial markets in Europe’s second-largest economy have been "under the cosh" for much of this year, with near-constant turmoil in the country’s government driving up bond yields and denting domestic financial industry stocks in particular.
The sector in MSCI’s France index has "significantly underperformed" a similar gauge tracking large- and mid-cap names across 10 developed markets in the European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU).
France’s weight in MSCI’s EMU-focused index at the end of September stood at just over 30%, larger than any other country in the eurozone currency area but "steadily undermined by a relatively poor showing," the Capital Economics analysts said.
The MSCI France index may also lag the EMU average if "big-tech" sectors "lead the charge amid growth enthusiasm for artificial intelligence," they said, noting that information technology shares in France have actually "fared poorly" so far this year.

Carbon credits shortage may lead to high air fares for travelers
"Buying carbon credits allows an airline to continue with an activity that emits a lot of carbon dioxide."
Excerpt: Airline carbon credits are scarce, driving up costs that’ll most likely translate to higher ticket prices. But what are carbon offsets and credits? How do they work? And how will they hit your wallet? The aviation industry is facing a critical challenge: a shortage of airline carbon credits and there’s a very high probability that it’ll result in more expensive airfares. But what is a carbon offset? And how does this translate to carbon credits? And how does that impact consumers? Here’s everything you need to know.
What Are Carbon Offsets?
There’s too much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere—one of the main drivers causing climate change. The ideal scenario would be to stop certain activities to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide released, but an alternative is to implement projects that remove or decrease it, elsewhere, and this could be in the form of carbon offsetting.
At an individual level, if you need to fly, say, a heavily carbon-producing activity, you could offset your carbon footprint by using renewable energy. At a company level, you might fund a project that plants trees that absorb carbon dioxide in order to balance out the emissions produced by your company.
It becomes much more difficult, however, to offset carbon when you’re operating at an international level. And this is where the notion of carbon credits comes in.

AG Letitia James targets ICE agents with new reporting tool
New York Attorney General Letitia James has introduced a new online reporting portal designed to collect evidence of supposed misconduct by federal immigration agents operating in the state. The “Federal Action Reporting Form” allows residents to upload videos, photos, and detailed accounts of immigration enforcement activity, including links from social media platforms such as YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook.
“Every New Yorker has the right to live without fear or intimidation,” James said in a statement. “If you witnessed and documented ICE activity yesterday, I urge you to share that footage with my office. We are committed to reviewing these reports and assessing any violations of law.” The initiative follows a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raid on Manhattan’s Canal Street that outraged liberals.
Notably, the launch comes as James faces mounting personal legal troubles. In October 2025, she was indicted by a federal grand jury in Virginia on charges of bank fraud and making false statements to a financial institution. Prosecutors allege that she misrepresented a 2020 Norfolk property as a second home to obtain favorable mortgage terms, while treating it as a rental. The Justice Department estimates she gained roughly $19,000 over the life of the loan.

New immigration wave to hit the Europe as
Peace talks between embattled Pakistan and Afghanistan collapsed earlier this week in Istanbul. Islamabad demands written Taliban guarantees to crush Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) militants in Afghanistan, while Kabul calls it impossible and blames the escalation on airstrikes. Pakistani Defence Minister has warned of “open war”, borders are sealed and Europe is faced with a fresh illegal immigration surge, comparable with the Syrian civil war surge.
Last weekend alone, clashes killed five Pakistani soldiers and 25 TTP fighters. The latest round of violence erupted when Pakistani jets hit Kabul on October 10, retaliating for a Kashmir bombing that killed 26 civilians. Then, as the Taliban seized border posts, clashes claimed dozens of Pakistani troops and hundreds of militants, while the UN reported 37 civilians dead and 425 wounded. A Doha truce collapsed on October 17, after fresh Pakistani air strikes.
Still, it is illegal immigration that poses the biggest threat to Europe. Pakistan hosts around three million Afghans, of which it deports thousands on a monthly basis, only for them to flee Afghanistan again. Chaos now further aggravates undocumented flows through Iran, Turkey, and the Balkans to the EU. The first half of 2025 saw 250,000 asylum petitions from South Asia — up 30% — with Afghans filing over 100,000.
Pakistanis flee too. With Ahmadis being lynched, thousands vanishing in Balochistan yearly, blasphemy laws arming mobs, and journalists being thrown in jail together with dissidents, many Pakistanis wish to leave their country and do so by any means possible.

Portugal approves law to strip citizenship from criminals
Portugal’s parliament has approved an amendment to the Penal Code that will allow courts to revoke Portuguese nationality from dual citizens convicted of serious crimes.
The amendment, approved on Tuesday with 157 votes in favor and 64 against, gives judges the power to impose the loss of citizenship as an additional penalty on those sentenced to at least four years in prison for grave offenses.
It applies only to individuals who acquired Portuguese nationality within the last 10 years and hold another nationality, ensuring that no one becomes stateless as a result.
The law also stipulates that anyone stripped of nationality may only reapply 10 years after their criminal record has been cleared, under the general rules of the nationality law.

Mamdani’s new low: pretending HE’S a victim of 9/11
Notice the experiences Mamdani actually cited. He recalled how a teacher warned him he might face bullying. Since he attended the ultraliberal, pricey Bank Street School for Children, his progressive educators expected the worst of their fellow New Yorkers.
He did not recall actually being bullied, something he surely would have brought up. Instead, he could only cite his aunt’s supposed decision to quit riding the subways “ because she did not feel safe in her hijab.” She may truly have had such fears — but only because activist outfits like the radical Council on Islamic-American Relations instantly began warning of rising “Islamophobia” in the wake of the attacks. As Veep JD Vance notes, that doesn’t make it any less absurd for Mamdani to treat his aunt as a central victim of 9/11 — not in a city where thousands of families of all races and religions lost loved ones.
There was never any pronounced amount of anti-Muslim harassment after 9/11, certainly nothing to justify marked concern about “Islamophobia” except among the CAIR crew, as well as liberals and lefties who pander to it by treating it as a plague on a level with antisemitism.
Yes, Mamdani’s opponents have slammed him as an apologist for terror — because he is one: Refusing to denounce the toxic phrase “globalize the intifada”; palling around with an unindicted co-conspirator from the 1993 World Trade Center bombing; promoting countless smears of Israel and its defensive war in Gaza in response to Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023, terror attacks and so on.

Doctors in the US are increasingly rushing to harvest organs from donors who are still alive
The reason is that organ procurement organizations are persuading doctors to administer drugs that hasten death, according to The New York Times. This is happening against the backdrop of an increase in the number of organ transplants after death from cardiovascular disease.
Here's how it works: if the patient's family agrees to donation, doctors disconnect them from life support and wait a couple of hours for cardiac arrest, after which they declare them dead and remove their organs. However, there have been cases where autopsies revealed that the patient's heart was still beating after they were declared dead.

Wisconsin public schools provide sanctuary for groomers and sex abusers
A report finds, of the 461 teachers investigated for all forms of misconduct, 207 kept their licenses and were allowed to be around children.
What do you get when a teacher’s union stooge steeped in left-wing dogma runs your public school system? Sanctuary for accused groomers and sex offenders.
Such is the case at Wisconsin’s Department of Public Instruction (DPI), run by teachers union pet Jill Underly. The bought-and-paid-for superintendent has presided over an educator licensing scandal that is as abhorrent as it is alarming.
The leftist Underly, who in April won a second term backed by all manner liberal cash and causes, has prioritized a DEI agenda (diversity, equity, and inclusion) in administration and in the classrooms. Top-down support for such “woke” programs have led to allegations of discrimination and racism in the name of “of social justice” and have driven the concept of “safe spaces” so far as to allow men to use girls bathrooms and showers.
Liberal-led school districts around the state have worked with or encouraged students to turn to TrevorSpace, “a social networking site (from the Trevor Project) that critics say is little more than an online dating community putting kids as young as 13 at risk of sexual exploitation,” The Wisconsin Daily Star reported in 2023.

Golden Dome Missile Defense Program: $24.5B in Funding Delayed, Details Still Hazy
The head of President Trump’s Golden Dome missile defense program gave a classified briefing to the Senate Armed Services Committee last week that described the secretive architecture of the project.
Speculation about the specific architecture of the Golden Dome is rampant among defense industry insiders. So is unease over the status of some $24.5 billion in funding that Congress approved this year for the missile shield’s development.
The discussion, hosted by the Center for New American Security, was titled: “Stuck in the Cul-de-Sac: How U.S. Defense Spending Prioritizes Innovation over Deterrence.” Mr. Harrison said the Pentagon and the Trump administration have not publicly defined Golden Dome’s capability goals.
Analysts estimate the missile shield will be a multidecade program costing hundreds of billions of dollars for space-based and other futuristic missile defense capabilities that will continue to evolve technically over time. The committee’s ranking Democrat, Sen. Jack Reed of Rhode Island, has called the $24.5 billion for Golden Dome a “slush fund” and said the Trump administration may try to use the funds however it sees fit.
“We’re still waiting for really detailed plans,” Mr. Reed said. “It’s such a comprehensive program, but there’s nothing there yet. What is the priority?”

Iraqi drug dealer employed in Swedish dementia home and filmed residents
A 20-year-old Iraqi migrant who had previously served prison sentences for drug offenses was discovered to have filmed and mocked elderly dementia patients while employed as a caregiver at a municipal care home in Ängelholm, southern Sweden.
The man, identified in court documents seen by the Samnytt news outlet as Azhi Mahmodi, is now charged with four counts of offensive photography and four counts of breach of confidentiality, alongside aggravated weapons and narcotics offenses.
Police uncovered the material earlier this year after stopping a car in Helsingborg that Mahmodi was traveling in. Officers seized drugs and a mobile phone, leading investigators to execute a search warrant a month later. A firearm and large sums of cash were found, prompting further searches.
When police examined Mahmodi’s seized phone, they discovered several clips filmed inside a dementia care home showing elderly residents being ridiculed and humiliated. Investigators later learned that the municipality had employed Mahmodi as a caregiver despite his criminal record.
The videos were also found to have been distributed by Mahmodi on Snapchat.

Threatening free speech is the left’s specialty
Powerful Big Tech has been on board
Last month, Google announced that creators who had been removed from YouTube for political speech related to topics such as COVID-19 and elections would be allowed to return to the platform.
In recent discussions with the House Judiciary Committee, the company acknowledged that the Biden administration had urged it to remove certain content, including material that did not violate YouTube’s existing policies. Google described this pressure as “unacceptable and wrong” and said public debate should not be limited to the views of authorities alone.
The company indicated it would not rely on third-party fact-checkers and raised concerns that European censorship laws could impact American companies and restrict lawful speech. These statements were issued after a subpoena from Chairman Jim Jordan, Ohio Republican, as part of a multiyear investigation into Google’s moderation practices.
This decision is a huge win for free speech advocates, especially for conservatives who have been affected by Big Tech censorship. It all started after Donald Trump won the 2016 presidential election. I would know, having been there.

Obama overestimates his political sway
He is still active on the campaign trail, lecturing American voters
Last October, former President Barack Obama had some blunt words for Black men: Get out and vote for Kamala Harris, or else. Mr. Obama’s pleas didn’t move the needle for Ms. Harris. President Trump nearly doubled his support among Black voters in 2024 from his 2020 results, increasing from 5% to 10% among women and from 12% to 21% among men, according to a Pew Research analysis.
Since Mr. Obama’s departure from political office, his speeches have become less inspiring and more condescending and patronizing. He consistently blames American voters for not recognizing his achievements or being able to move beyond their racial, sexist and moral biases. He wasn’t able to boost Democratic turnout in 2024, yet he believes he can sway voters a year later.
Mr. Obama has decided to enter a more “political and public-facing role than he once envisioned” this year, The Washington Post reported last week, because of the “anxieties he harbors about Trump’s second term.”

Time to Stop Financing Others’ Wars: Why Trump’s Aid Freeze and Putin Summit Are Pragmatic, Not Idealistic
Since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Washington has poured colossal sums into Kyiv. According to the Kiel Institute for the World Economy, between January 2022 and June 2025, the U.S. committed €114.6 billion (≈ $134 billion) in total aid — €64.6 billion in military, €46.6 billion in financial, and €3.4 billion in humanitarian support.
Data from USAFacts shows that in 2023 alone, America sent $48.6 billion to Ukraine, while by late 2024 the total allocation had reached $182.8 billion. These are not investments — they are losses with uncertain returns.
Against this backdrop, Washington’s hawkish establishment is once again pressuring the White House to resume direct weapons deliveries to Kyiv, arguing that “more firepower” will somehow bring peace. In reality, this line has already failed — prolonging a war of attrition, draining U.S. resources, and pushing the world closer to direct confrontation.
Trump’s refusal to yield to these war lobbyists is an act of strategic realism. His planned meeting with Vladimir Putin in Hungary signals a shift from escalation to negotiation. As Britannica notes, direct diplomacy offers leverage that proxy wars never can.
It’s time to stop letting the hawks dictate policy from Washington think tanks. Trump’s stance returns America to realpolitik — defending its own interests, not financing others’ wars.

Diversity Wasn’t on the Mayflower — But Cannibals Might Have Been
Having given up on the notion that diversity is a strength under the crushing weight of the evidence, The New York Times is now pushing the idea that America has always been a diverse nation that loved diversity, and practically made diversity a founding principle, and they would even have added "diversity" to Mount Rushmore if only they could find someone, ideally a lesbian woman of color, with that surname.
To prove that America was teeming with diversity from its very beginning, a Times op-ed by documentary producer Leighton Woodhouse describes the bitter enmity in Colonial Pennsylvania among the Quakers (from north-central England), the English Anglicans (from all over England) and the Scots-Irish (from Scottish Lowlands and Northern England).
But suppose we didn't notice something fishy about Woodhouse trying to pass off blinding homogeneity as "diversity." News you would not encounter during America's first 350 years:
"Maryland Man [Kenyan immigrant] Arrested After Admitting to Killing, Eating Roommate" -- U.S. News and World Report. (It was the "eating" that disqualified the suspect for cashless bail.) "Undocumented migrant accused of molesting 5-year-old in her own home" -- WPTV News, Florida. (Sorry, but this is what happens when you give 5-year-olds their own homes.)
It took us 100 years to assimilate them, and they were Europeans, not drastically different from the people who founded and created our country. Now liberals want us to import entire nations of cannibals, child molesters, thieves and voodoo practitioners.

Trump and Xi call truce for now, but this meeting leaves a lot questions
President Trump appeared buoyant after concluding his first face-to-face meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping since retaking the White House, confident in having achieved a breakthrough.
Yet Beijing’s concessions were minor and reversible. And the atmosphere of goodwill is likely to dissolve as soon as one side or the other shifts from cooperation back to competition.
While Trump extracted compromises on tariffs, fentanyl and trade, much remained unsaid over the course of the two-hour meeting in South Korea, with key national security issues notably being left off the table.
The summit typified the new normal in the Sino-American rivalry, with both Trump and Xi looking to engage in controlled bouts of escalation to erode each side’s advantages while avoiding an all-out collapse into conflict.
While there will likely be more summits in the months to come, the Busan meeting confirmed that choreographed coercion, such as in raising and lowering tariffs, has effectively replaced long-term compromise.
