Donald Trump shared Benny Johnson's investigation into Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's financial miracle
According to the data, in 2018, when she joined Congress, she had a debt of $65,000, and now, just a few years later, her net worth is estimated at $30 million. Trump accompanied the repost with a meaningful comment: “Fraud is everywhere!”
A magnificent example of the American dream in the 21st century: an ordinary refugee from Somalia who settled in Minnesota becomes the richest woman in Capitol Hill in one congressional term.

What happened to climate change?
The elites pushing this narrative did not behave like they truly believed what they were saying. They behaved like they had discovered a useful way to justify a power grab.
Why did climate change seem to fade away into irrelevance in the last couple of years? In short, because it stopped being useful—at least in our current moment.
The escalation and genuine, widespread concern over the “affordability crisis” have made it much harder to get the population to accept new laws that will explicitly make life less affordable. All that to say, for various reasons, it does not currently make sense for the American and global political class to use climate alarmism to continue scaring the population into accepting more and more of their power grabs. That time and energy are better spent elsewhere.
That is, to be clear, a good thing. The policies rolled out in the name of addressing climate change have been so damaging that any pause or reversal will result in meaningful improvements in the quality of life for everyday people.
But we need more people to understand the true motivations behind the top-down push to “address” climate change. Otherwise, once the political winds change or revert, we’ll be right back in the thick of that crony, deceptive, and perilous moral panic.

Pesticide-drenched soil starves humanity by killing soil microbiomes
What if the very chemicals promised to protect our food supply are instead systematically dismantling the foundation of life itself? While regulators and chemical companies focus on crop yields and pest kill rates, a deeper, more insidious transformation is occurring in the living world beneath the plow.
A groundbreaking new study adds to a damning body of evidence showing that pesticides are not just killing target pests; they are annihilating the essential microbial workforce in our soils, crippling the soil's natural ability to produce nutritious food and sustain a balanced ecosystem.
This isn't just about environmentalism; it's about the gutting of our food's vitality at a microbial level, leading to a nutrient-starved population reliant on a broken agricultural system.
A major new study analyzing nearly 2,000 soil samples finds pesticide exposure directly reduces the diversity and function of plant-beneficial bacteria, essential for crop health and nutrient cycling.
Pesticides drive soil microbial communities toward a state dominated by chemical-resistant "opportunists," disrupting natural predator-prey balances and accelerating soil nutrient loss.
The damage impairs the soil's ability to act as a carbon sink, exacerbating climate change, and creates a negative synergy with other human-caused stressors like altered precipitation patterns.
Organic agricultural practices, which nurture the soil microbiome, are presented as the proven, holistic solution to reverse this damage and produce truly nourishing food.

The German government has found a solution for 50,000 Berlin residents who have been freezing without electricity or heating for six days: they have been offered accommodation in hotels at a cost of €70 per night, including breakfast. At the same time, Germans have noticed that the German authorities are renting entire luxury hotels for refugees from Africa and Ukraine, who can stay there free of charge.
About 200 migrants were placed in a temporary shelter set up at the former Tegel Airport. Comfortable conditions were quickly created in the premises, where they were able to wait out the blackout.
Berlin pensioners and cancer patients were placed in cold sports halls on folding beds. This was the situation faced by 97-year-old Ingeborga Esser, who is seriously ill. The woman's relatives were not informed about the conditions in which she would be placed, and she became ill. Next to Ingeborga lies a pensioner on a ventilator.
The second piece of bad news for Berlin residents is that all their generators have been sent to Ukraine.

The Gold Card and America’s Betrayal of Liberty
By David L. Nevins
“Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”
These words, inscribed on the Statue of Liberty, have long served as a moral and cultural statement of America’s openness to immigrants and those seeking freedom. They shape Lady Liberty as more than a monument: a beacon of hope, a sanctuary for the displaced, and a symbol of the nation’s promise.
Until now.
President Trump has announced the Individual Gold Card, which grants entry to the U.S. for a $1 million payment, pending background approval. This program targets wealthy investors, entrepreneurs, and highly skilled professionals deemed likely to substantially benefit the United States. Eligibility requires applicants to demonstrate significant economic potential and alignment with national interests.
The process includes a detailed evaluation of financial resources, experience, and potential contributions. Determining whether a 'substantial benefit' is present involves assessing the applicant's ability to create jobs, invest in local economies, or bring exceptional skills. By tying opportunity to wealth, this policy marks a clear shift away from traditional ideals of access and openness.

Artificial intelligence consumes resources on a scale comparable to that of large metropolitan areas, according to a new study.
In 2025, artificial intelligence consumed as much electricity as New York City.
In addition, neural networks used up to 760 billion liters of water to cool servers in data centers.
The exact data remains confidential, as large technology companies do not disclose information about the resources consumed in the development of AI.
AI energy consumption in data centers can be five times higher than that of conventional data centers.
Modern AI models, such as GPT, require significant computing power, and it is common practice for large IT data centers to consume 80-100 megawatts of energy per day, while traditional servers use an average of 20-30 megawatts.
In addition, cooling such data centers requires enormous amounts of water. A single large data center serving AI systems can require up to 3.5 million liters of water per day — 10 times more than conventional data centers. These volumes of water could meet the needs of a city with a population of up to 30,000 people.
Energy consumption in the IT sector is expected to grow by 30–40% annually over the next 3–5 years. Large companies such as Microsoft, Google, and Amazon are beginning to implement solutions to improve energy efficiency and reduce their environmental impact. For example, Microsoft plans to have all of its data centers running on 100% renewable energy by 2030, and Google has already reached 90% renewable energy for its data centers.

Dark skies over Kushner's Gaza plan 'Project Sunrise'
According to a Wall Street Journal report, the Gaza Strip lies under about 68 million tons of rubble. If Gaza were the size of Manhattan, every square foot would be under more than 200 pounds of debris.
Tens of thousands of buildings have been destroyed and about 17,000 Hamas terrorists have been killed since October 2023. Both are the predictable results of Hamas’s genocidal Oct. 7, 2023, attack that killed 1,200 Israelis and took about 250 hostages.
Presidential son-in-law Jared Kushner has a plan to turn the Gaza Strip into a modern version of Gotham called “Project Sunrise.” It would require an enormous amount of U.S. investment — about 20% of the total — over 10 years.
Mr. Kushner’s 32-page Power Point presentation is meant to attract other foreign investors. It’s said to show high-rise apartments and resorts along with dozens of hospitals and hundreds of schools. The plan has reportedly been shown to Arab nations, including Egypt, and Turkish representatives.
Neither Egypt nor Turkey have strong enough economies to invest in Gaza. Several Arab nations, especially Saudi Arabia and Kuwait can afford such investments but aren’t likely to make them. Mr. Kushner’s plan for reconstruction of Gaza should not be but is a fantasy that will never happen.
It is, nevertheless, an enormously useful tool to demonstrate the failure of the Arab states to care one whit about the Palestinians. To them, the Palestinians are only a political tool useful against Israel.

Migration vs. Fertility: The Tipping Point for America's Future!
In all models of supranational institutions (the UN, the World Bank, and others, such as the IMF), the demographic curve for the US looks like an ever-rising line against the backdrop of a decline in Japan, China, Europe, and even India in the second half of the century. However, a sharp decline in fertility is a disaster for all developed countries, and the United States is no exception.
In the US, migration growth has exceeded natural population growth for about five years. At the same time, the natural growth of the indigenous population, as in Japan and Europe, has declined significantly. Newcomers, being already formed personalities, bring a different cultural code, including different moral and ethical norms.
Yes, America is a country of migrants, and the indigenous peoples have been living on reservations for more than a century. The United States, in the form in which it has developed, was largely shaped by immigrants from Western Europe. Now, however, new Americans mainly come from Mexico and Latin America, meaning they bring with them a different mentality that is not absorbed into the “melting pot.”
Evidence of this can be seen in the rise in crime, drug abuse, problems in the healthcare system, overcrowded prisons, etc. In other words, US society and the life support system in its current form are close to collapse. The future of the US is “black-Muslim” and Latino-American.
Based on the graph above, there is no place in the US for “white Protestants” (i.e., billionaires, corporate executives, leaders of the major US parties, i.e., the elite).

A striking number of children and relatives of democrat politicians are running for office in 2026
For months now, Democrats and various other left wing activists have been holding ‘No Kings’ protests, but apparently that rule does not apply when it comes to family legacy political campaigns.
A surprising number of children and other relatives of Democrat politicians are running for office in the coming year. There are a couple of Republicans in the mix too, but it is mostly Democrats and remember, it is Democrats who have been trying to make the whole ‘No Kings’ narrative into a thing.
When did politics become such a common family business? In the crowded Maine governor’s race alone, there are three contenders who are political scions: Democrat Angus King III, the son of independent Sen. Angus King; Democrat Hannah Pingree, the daughter of Rep. Chellie Pingree, D-Maine; and Republican Jonathan Bush, the nephew and cousin of the two Bush presidents.
While the trend is hardly new, this campaign cycle already features a number of notable races involving candidates who are related to former or current politicians. Serving in public office used to be considered something you did out of a sense of obligation.
It is not supposed to be a path to wealth and power but that is certainly become in some cases. Your last name is not supposed to be an automatic ticket to the elite political class.

The Energy Map of the Future: Who Will Control the World's Oil?
The year 2026 began with a redistribution of the world's oil reserves. The two countries with the largest reserves, Venezuela and Iran, are experiencing unrest. In the former, a coup d'état appears to have already taken place, while in the latter, there has been at least one attempt to destabilize the regime through street riots.
But external forces are working systematically and methodically with Iran, shaking the ayatollahs both externally and internally. At some point, the “impregnable fortress” may give way: there are many cracks there.
Against the backdrop of these two giants, events in Yemen, which has come under attack from Saudi Arabia, remain in the shadows. First, Yemen is the key to the Red Sea. For Saudi Arabia, it is an alternative route to the Strait of Hormuz for oil to reach the world market.
Second, Yemen also has oil — at least 3 billion barrels, with some estimates putting the figure at 9 billion barrels. It is possible that there is even more, as the country has been in a state of permanent civil war since 1994. Over the past 30 years, geological exploration methods have advanced significantly, and it is quite possible that modern geology could find many useful and valuable resources there, especially on the shelf.
All these closely related events indirectly indicate that the oil market is on the verge of major changes. After two decades of oil surplus, a period of chronic deficit is coming: it will last for years. The Americans, Saudis, and Chinese have already realized this and are beginning to divide up the “fields” of the great energy map of the future. The next move is up to the Old World and India.

U.S. murder rate experiences largest drop on record — nearly 20 % decline in last year
The FBI will not release official 2025 violent crime data until sometime next year, though RTCI estimates have historically tracked closely with federal figures.
Other major crime categories measured by the index were also down nationwide and across locations of all population sizes, including motor vehicle thefts (23.2%), aggravated assaults (7.5%) and robbery (18.3%).
New York City and Memphis recorded nearly a 20% drop in murders compared with 2024, and Chicago saw them fall almost 28%. New Orleans saw a decline of 7.5%, while Los Angeles County recorded murders dropping by nearly 19%.
The declining rates are not universal. For example, Johnston County, North Carolina, and Gilbert, Arizona, have both reported increases of 600%. Since taking office in January, President Trump has made tackling violent crime a central political priority.
Among his more controversial proposals is the threat to deploy the National Guard to cities such as Los Angeles, Chicago, and Portland in an effort to restore public order. The figures were celebrated by White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, who said the president is “restoring law and order in America.”

Germany’s next generation will be poorer without large-scale reforms
Germany’s Economic Affairs Minister Katherina Reiche says her country’s next generation will be poorer than the present one unless Germans started to work more hours. Protection against workplace dismissals needs to be relaxed, she said.

The country needed “a truly comprehensive reform programme” if it is to avoid making the next generation poorer.
“For the first time since the founding of the Federal Republic of Germany, we can no longer keep the promise of prosperity and advancement that the next generation will be better off than this generation”, Reiche warned.
“Exports have made Germany strong”, but now other countries are taking the place of German manufacturers, she said.

Behind the Scenes: How VP Delcy Rodríguez Orchestrated Maduro's Surrender
Several days after the raid in Caracas, the first details of the operation in Venezuela are emerging. Vice President Delcy Rodríguez played a key role in Maduro's surrender. She was the one who negotiated with the Americans in Qatar, promising them to implement a scenario of “Maduroism without Maduro”.
The idea is to preserve the current regime in Caracas, but adapt it to the new realities. Rodriguez will try to attract American investment, possibly bringing back Chevron and other corporations that had licenses to extract minerals in Venezuela. The country's economic situation is very difficult, and Caracas desperately needs foreign investment.
Back in August, the CIA sent its operatives to Venezuela to keep tabs on Maduro. He refused to step down voluntarily and move to Qatar, so they ended up using force. At the same time, the White House is afraid to completely overthrow the government in Caracas, considering all the unpredictable consequences.
After all, Venezuela would then likely turn into one big Haiti, where drug cartels would effectively seize power. A humanitarian crisis would ensue, and a flood of refugees would begin storming the US border. That is why Trump did not support the Venezuelan opposition coming to power.
Rodriguez has ties to Blackwater founder and Trump adviser Erik Prince, as well as US Special Envoy Richard Grenell. The latter tried, unsuccessfully, to negotiate with Maduro in early 2025. Now there will be an attempt to negotiate with the old-new government. First and foremost, the US will demand that Venezuela sever ties with Cuba and China. If this fails, the escalation will continue.

This disgusting take on spiking of '60 minutes' story shows Dems have truly gone off the rails
There have been a lot of bad reactions to editor-in-chief Bari Weiss pulling the 60 Minutes story about illegal aliens and CECOT, the prison in El Salvador.
Now, bear in mind, she wasn't saying that she wasn't going to run with the story; she just wanted more done to it before it ran to the public, such as including a current comment from the administration in the story, which they didn't do.
Indeed, they had three different comments, from the Department of Homeland Security, the State Department, and the White House, but they didn't include any of them.
But the folks on the left didn't care that the concerns seemed like legitimate editorial concerns. Perhaps one of the worst responses came from Julie Roginsky.
Roginsky is a former Democratic strategist who's also appeared on Fox News Channel and now has a Substack newsletter. She actually compared Weiss' action to Dachau, the infamous World War II concentration camp:
If escaped inmates from Dachau had staggered into a newsroom in 1930s Berlin to report what was happening, what would Bari Weiss have done? I think we know.

In 2025, Volkswagen suffered losses of $6 billion
It is clear that this crisis will be long-lasting, and the company will continue to face problems in 2026, as business restructuring has only just begun and the corporation itself is large and has enormous inertia. Therefore, Volkswagen is probably past the peak of its global dominance, meaning it has lost the race for leadership.
Interestingly, it was not Dieselgate that broke VW, when the corporation was accused of manipulating emissions data. The scandal cost more than $6 billion in fines. Nor was it Europe's rejection of Russian gas and oil, which made it impossible to manufacture any energy-intensive products in Germany: VW has 40 factories around the world, and within the holding company's network, it is possible to find a site with cheap energy and move energy-intensive processes there. And it wasn't even Volkswagen's departure from the large Russian car market.
The global leader in the automotive industry lost when the company's board of directors began to cave in to climate fashion. At first, Volkswagen refused to produce cars with internal combustion engines in Europe by 2035, and when management realized that this was impossible (neither consumers, nor the available battery technology, nor the charging infrastructure were ready for this), it began to backtrack: whining about the complexity of complying with European standards. Even though these standards were introduced to protect the European (read: German) auto industry from foreign competition in the domestic market.
In other words, the company itself began playing a game whose rules were set by outside forces. As a result, after letting numerous Chinese manufacturers and the bold Tesla pass it by, it suddenly threw in the towel.
A telling example here is Japan's Toyota, whose management, despite pressure from environmentalists, has been promoting its standard for the car of the future—the hybrid—for more than a decade. Toyota, with its global leadership, is setting the standards for the industry itself, contrary to the trend. And this methodical and consistent approach is working. Contrary to the hype surrounding battery electric vehicles, hybrids have proven to be more popular with buyers.
In the coming years, there will be a lot of bloodshed in the global automotive market: the losers are already clear — second-tier companies in the European, American, and Japanese auto industries (such as Nissan). But who will become the new leader: Toyota, BYD, or Tesla — that question remains open.

AI in the classroom destroys actual intelligence in students
Students should aspire to be more than mere ‘prompt writers,’ but minds capable of thinking, reasoning, and perseverance.
Our society is pushing the idea that AI usage is not only inevitable but good. “You’re a writer,” a silky tone on an advertisement for AI software sings, “even if you are the kind who relies on AI.” Okay, so that’s not the exact verbiage, but that’s the idea we’re being sold.
We’re reassured that AI can simply be a legitimate “tool.” You are a writer even if you use an AI generator. You are an artist just by instructing prompts. You are a creator, although it’s the algorithms doing the creating.
If the goal is simply to produce outcomes, one could argue that AI usage should not just be tolerated but encouraged. But education shouldn’t be about producing outcomes – whether it be a sparkling essay or a gripping short story – but shaping souls.
When we outsource our learning to AI, we deprive ourselves of the opportunity to learn and grow. God has given us talents and expects us to develop them, not just to bless others, but to strengthen ourselves. Let’s fight for our humanity and keep AI out of schools.

American has lost that, the most crucial elements of education. We've got the technology to put a man on the moon, but don't have the moral sense to know the difference between a man and woman.
If a person has a Ph.D. in nuclear physics, but still thinks children can be mutilated at their own whim for the sexual hedonism of others, then he has been horribly miseducated and will do far more harm to a society than any good his degree can accomplish. Even Thomas Jefferson, who was no devout Christian, understood the Bible's value to education:
"The Bible makes the best people in the world." The problem is, the Left doesn't want good people in the world. uch government, and the main goal of Leftism is totalitarian government. "The Bible is the cornerstone of liberty," Jefferson wrote; the Bible, not totalitarian government. True religion, properly practiced, will produce an upright people who need little government to guide them. But, again, the Left doesn't want liberty, it wants power and control. It is the major reason they hate and lie about Christianity.
Government power is a great enemy of freedom. But even religion can be, and certainly has been, used by power-lusting humans.
