Assassin Vance Boelter is sentenced to die in jail for murdering Minnesota Democrat lawmaker and her husband…

The Minnesota man who pleaded guilty to murdering a top Democratic lawmaker and her husband has been sentenced to die in jail over the grisly killing.

Vance Boelter, 59, was handed two consecutive life terms plus 40 years in prison over the murders of House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark, and the shootings of state Senator John Hoffman and his wife Yvette, who survived.

Boelter pleaded guilty last month to avoid the death penalty and instead agreed to the maximum sentence he could be issued short of capital punishment.

Carney and Trump as the Odd Couple

Carney and Trump as the Odd Couple

Canadian prime minister, Mark Carney, recently found himself embroiled in a diplomatic tiff with Trump. Both Carney and Trump have a form of Tourette’s that I recognize all too well. When asked about the forest fires in Ontario, Mark didn’t hesitate in implicating Trump as the climate arsonist. Trump shot back that Mark would not be receiving his tariff deposit back for violating our smoke-free policy.

BARBER: Carney the rockslide — how elite ego and anti-American posturing wrecked Canada-US relations

Interestingly, Ambassador and Deputy United States Trade Representative Rick Switzer appeared on the YouTube channel of the Council on Foreign Relations. The Ambassador is a veteran diplomat with decades of experience. He has also founded ProjX Technology Consulting and taught graduate courses at the National Intelligence University. Mr. Switzer has echoed the same critique of Prime Minister Mark Carney as I have already published. In short, he stated that Carney has made the negotiations between Canada and the US personal, has “gone out of his way to be antagonistic,” and that this approach is “political malpractice.”

US signs landmark nuclear deal with Saudi Arabia that could pave the way for domestic nuclear enrichment

US signs landmark nuclear deal with Saudi Arabia that could pave the way for domestic nuclear enrichment

The US has signed a landmark nuclear deal with Saudi Arabia that could allow the kingdom to enrich uranium in the future.

In a statement on Wednesday, the US Department of Energy said its secretary, Chris Wright, and his Saudi counterpart, Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman, signed a “peaceful nuclear cooperation agreement”, along with a “bilateral safeguards agreement”.

The full details of the deal have yet to be released, but the timing of the announcement is controversial, as the US’s war with Iran is being fought in part to prevent Tehran enriching uranium domestically and make it near-impossible for Iran to build a nuclear weapon.

Michigan Senate Candidate Abdul El-Sayed Calls US Political System a ‘Disease’

Michigan Senate Candidate Abdul El-Sayed Calls US Political System a ‘Disease’

Last December, The Hill  reported that more Muslim candidates were seeking office as the “Mamdani effect” took hold. Two months ago, the New Arab reported that “across the US, Muslims are running in the 2026 midterms at the federal, state and local levels.” But what these candidates are standing for requires scrutiny. The spotlight is now on Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed. “Socialist-backed Michigan Senate hopeful calls American politics a ‘disease’ after professing love for US,” by Bonny Chu, Fox News, July 2025, 2026…

Trump’s Apparent Confusion: Who Are Friends of His and Who Are Friends of the West

Trump’s Apparent Confusion: Who Are Friends of His and Who Are Friends of the West

“Scum” would seem quite fitting to describe the current Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) leadership of the Islamic Republic of Iran, especially after Israel informed US President Donald J. Trump that Iran’s leaders are planning to kill him.

It is to be hoped that the US President might now kindly reconsider who his real friends are and who America’s real friends are. A few of President Trump’s “good friends” he has mentioned are the leaders of Qatar, Turkey, Russia and China. They might be friends of his; unfortunately, that does not mean they have at heart the best interests of America or the West. Their definitions of “best interests ” may well consist of what they would like — not necessarily what the Free World might like.

ABC/CBS/NBC Bury Three New Heinous Immigrant Truck Driver Crimes

ABC/CBS/NBC Bury Three New Heinous Immigrant Truck Driver Crimes

In just the last three weeks there have been three heinous truck driving crashes that have gone unreported by ABC, CBS, NBC. Why? Probably because they all involved illegals (or in one case a diversity lottery winner) who entered the U.S. during the Biden years.

The elitist media types at the broadcast networks don’t want to give the Trump administration any credit for their crackdown on states that were issuing commercial drivers licenses (CDLs) to reckless immigrant drivers who weren’t qualified to be behind big rigs.

Trump administration weighing military action in Mali, officials say

Trump administration weighing military action in Mali, officials say

The Trump administration is weighing military action in the West African country of Mali to target an al-Qaeda-affiliated group known as JNIM, said current and former U.S. officials familiar with the deliberations.

If approved, it would add an eighth nation to the list of countries where President Donald Trump has ordered strikes since the start of his second term — a chapter of his presidency that he initially said would be dedicated to ending global strife and redirecting U.S. resources to Americans.

America needs a new Red Scare

America needs a new Red Scare

Adolf Hitler was something of a piker compared to Mao, the greatest mass murderer in mankind’s history. It’s impossible to measure the misery, destitution, and death inflicted by the communist dictator. Was it 20, 30, 40 million dead? We don’t really know.

For the sake of moral clarity, however, let’s concede that celebrating Mao is as grotesque as celebrating Hitler. No decent human being would do it. No decent society would normalize it.

Cuban-Americans who lost property in 1959 revolution seek compensation

Cuban-Americans who lost property in 1959 revolution seek compensation

MIAMI—Scattered across South Florida and tucked inside bank vaults, safes and family desk drawers are the yellowing deeds to sugar mills, oil refineries and family homes seized by Cuba’s Communist government more than six decades ago.

For generations, these documents were little more than family heirlooms that served as painful reminders of fortunes lost after the revolution led by Fidel Castro’s bearded guerrillas.

Now they suddenly have potential monetary value, as the Trump administration intensifies its squeeze on Cuba’s government.

DSA members exhibit their rabid hatred for America and we should be very concerned

Linda Sarsour, a radical Islamic activist who works with the benign-sounding but terrorist supporting Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR), wants to dispense with the Declaration of Independence — arguably the grandest and most important document ever conceived and written by human beings — and replace it with one based on her values and principles.

Because, of course she does, she’s a card-carrying member of the Democratic Socialists of America, a misnomer on the order of the People’s Republic of China.

Why America Keeps Choking on Wildfire Smoke

Why America Keeps Choking on Wildfire Smoke

The Midwest and Northeast registered some of the worst air quality in the world last week as wildfire smoke shrouded cities from Minneapolis to New York in an apocalyptic haze. More than 100 million Americans were under air-quality alerts, with smoke even reaching Washington, D.C., by the weekend.

Most of the smoke came from Canada, where about 900 wildfires were burning by Friday. Over 100 were burning in northwestern Ontario alone. Fires are also raging in northern Minnesota and across the western United States, where another brutal fire season is underway. Nearly 80 large fires are uncontained nationwide, and more than 3.9 million acres have burned this year.
