Pope Leo, Lampedusa, and The Camp of the Saints

On his native country’s 250th anniversary, Pope Leo XIV will visit Lampedusa, an Italian sovereign territory off the North African coast that has long been a destination for migrants seeking to enter Europe. In 2013, Pope Francis made it his first papal destination outside Rome. Publication of Pope Leo’s official calendar recalled Vice President JD Vance’s personal invitation to the United States for the anniversary festivities, an invitation the pope seems to have declined. Adding fuel to the fire, unconfirmed Spanish media reports soon thereafter claimed that Pope Leo “warned the [Spanish] bishops that his greatest concern in Spain is the far right that is trying to ‘instrumentalize the Church.’”

40% of New UK Homes Could House Migrants by 2030

New analysis from the Conservative Party warns that nearly four in ten newly built homes in the UK by 2030 may be required to accommodate incoming migrants. Drawing on projections from the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR), the report estimates that net migration between 2026 and 2030 will reach almost 1.2 million people, creating demand for roughly 500,000 additional homes.

The OBR projects that around 1.34 million new homes will be delivered over the same period, meaning that 37.1% of all housing could be allocated to new arrivals, with the proportion rising to nearly 40% by 2030.

How Federal Law Enforcement Rescued Memphis From Third-World Murder Stats

A few days ago, I was driving through downtown Memphis to go to dinner with my wife when we passed a group of National Guard soldiers out on patrol. This has become an altogether frequent and welcome sight here in Bluff City, and the Guard’s positive effect has been widely felt.

There’s been a lot of national discussion and commentary about the presence of soldiers in our city, but the truth is clear for those here on the ground. Walk around Memphis today and the community feels transformed.

Ireland’s demographic experiment is reaching crisis point

Ireland has grown more diverse in recent years, and so has the country’s variety of recorded crimes. In 2022, two gay men were murdered in Sligo by the son of Iraqi-Kurdish refugees. In 2023, three children were stabbed at random in Dublin; the attacker only spoke Arabic to his translator in the following trial. In October 2025, a Kuwaiti national pleaded guilty to the murder of his eight-year-old daughter in Wexford the previous year. A more modest addition to this catalogue of horrors happened last November in Cork, when a man walked past a woman and elbowed her in the face, knocking her unconscious. She sustained a broken eye socket, while her attacker remains at large.

Thanks To Democrats, Potential Iranian Terrorists Are Already On American Soil

U.S. counterterrorism agencies are on high alert for potential retaliation after the American government joined Israel in launching a coordinated operation named Epic Fury against Iran over the weekend.

Already, at least two Americans have died and more than a dozen have been injured after a 53-year-old gunman, reportedly clothed in an Iranian flag T-shirt and “Property of Allah” sweatshirt, opened fire at an Austin bar one day after the strikes commenced. While it’s unclear if this alleged terrorism is linked to a larger revenge campaign led by Iran or a lone wolf sympathizer attack, the consensus is that there is a heightened threat of Islamic violence against Americans on their own soil.

Border Patrol Union Chief Upsets PBS: ‘Media’s Misleading the Public’ on Deportations

On Wednesday, the PBS News Hour brought on union chief Paul Perez of the National Border Patrol Council (who represents 18,000 Border Patrol agents), and anchor Amna Nawaz pressed him on why 6 in 10 Americans think immigration enforcement has “gone too far.” Perez argued “the media’s misleading the public,” and Nawaz wasn’t going to accept that argument!

The Justice Department announced on Friday that 30 additional people have been charged with disrupting a Sunday worship service with a protest during the peak of the immigration crackdown in Minnesota.

Half of ‘Migrant Minors’ Tested in Canary Islands Found to Be Adults

Nearly half of the so-called “unaccompanied minors” tested in the Canary Islands were ultimately found to be adults, according to a draft European Parliament report that shows how badly stretched the migration system really is.

The document, prepared after MEPs visited Tenerife and Gran Canaria in September 2025, confirms what local officials have warned for years: child protection centres are overwhelmed, deportations rarely happen, and cases linked to migrant boat arrivals almost never lead to charges.

Far-Left Activists Are Encouraging and Radicalizing K–12 Students In Nationwide Anti-ICE Walkouts

A growing number of K–12 students are taking part in walkouts and protests against federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations across the nation, raising questions about the activists radicalizing them.

The walkouts, which many school administrators say are a legitimate exercise of the students’ First Amendment rights, have seen increasing incidents of violence and lawlessness, ranging from beatings and scuffles to vandalism.

Reform Pledges To Deport 600,000 Illegal Migrants in Five Years

Reform UK’s shadow home secretary, Zia Yusuf, said on Monday that the damage done by open borders policies pursued by the “cowardly” establishment parties is “profound.” But, crucially, “they are not irreversible.”

He announced a range of new measures aimed at ending “the invasion,” perhaps the most noteworthy of which is a pledge to deport “over 600,000” illegal migrants during the party’s first term in office. That would amount to 120,000 removals every year for five years.

Conservatives calling for probe into asylum seekers’ abusive access to health care

OTTAWA — The Conservatives plan to put a motion before the House of Commons on Tuesday aimed at reviewing how health benefits are provided to asylum seekers and restricting who has access to those services.

The planned text of the motion, which has been shared with The Canadian Press, says the cost of the Interim Federal Health Program has more than quadrupled since the 2020 fiscal year, growing from $211 million to $896 million in 2024-25.

That data was pulled from a report by the parliamentary budget officer published earlier this month.


They should only be offered MAiD like Canadian citizens, that’ll send them packing back home.

Germany Records Sharp Increase in Ideologically Motivated Attacks Against Its Nationals

New federal data reveals a steady climb in criminal offenses targeting Germans based on their ethnicity. According to a government report requested by Alternative für Deutschland MP Martin Hess, authorities recorded 377 anti-German incidents in 2025. While this represents a modest 3.3% increase from the 365 cases in 2024, the long-term trend is stark: in 2019, there were fewer than a third as many cases (132).
