Hillary Clinton Wants to Deliver Epstein Testimony in Public
|
Hillary Clinton’s days of refusing to comply with her Jeffrey Epstein subpoena are long gone. Now, she’s demanding her testimony take place in public.
The former Secretary of State on Thursday challenged the House Oversight Committee to change its plan to hold her hearing behind closed doors, saying both her and her husband’s question-and-answer sessions should be available for the world to see.
“Let’s stop the games. If you want this fight, [Committee Chair James Comer], let’s have it — in public,” Hillary wrote on X. “You love to talk about transparency. There’s nothing more transparent than a public hearing, cameras on.”
We’re no fans of the Clintons, but it’s hard to argue against transparency. Everything that happens in Congress is supposed to benefit the American people. The public should have full disclosure. Read more. |
School Board Trains Staff to Fight “Terrorist” Parents
|
A Virginia school board in January reportedly hosted a training to teach staff and board members how to fight off “terrorist” parents. Witnesses say the session featured dozens of actors playing the roles of moms and dads showing up to a meeting heavily armed.
“Run, hide, and fight,” instructors taught board members. Those are the same commands students receive in school shooter simulations.
What was this exercise’s purpose? Does Loudoun County, Virginia, have a harrowing history of parents shooting up school board meetings? Not at all. What has happened, however, is parents showing up angry over the board’s radical transgender policies. Loudoun County gained notoriety in 2021 for allegedly covering up a male sexually assaulting a female in a school bathroom. Police arrested the victim’s father for demanding an apology at a following board meeting.
So a school that your tax dollars fund allows your daughter to fall victim to trans sexual assault, but you’re the terrorist? None of this passes the laugh test. Read more. |
Top Russian General Shot Outside Apartment
|
An unknown assailant shot and wounded a deputy chief of Russian military intelligence this morning, shooting Lt. Gen. Vladimir Alekseyev multiple times outside a Moscow apartment. The attack is the latest in a series of assassination attempts that the Russians blame on Ukraine.
The 64-year-old Alekseyev has served as the first deputy head of Russia’s military intelligence since 2011. He previously earned the Hero of Russia medal for his role in Moscow’s military campaign in Syria.
The shooting came a day after Russian, Ukrainian, and American negotiators ended talks aimed at ending the Ukraine War. Ukraine has claimed responsibility for a handful of recent assassination plots, but has yet to comment on the attempt on Alekseyev. Read more. |
POLL: Women More Likely to Support Political Killings Than Men
|
Women are considerably more likely than men to support the murder of sitting political figures, a new poll found.
The Network Contagion Research Institute at Rutgers surveyed 1,055 U.S. adults on the hypothetical murders of Donald Trump and Zohran Mamdani, and the results paint a grim picture of America’s collective headspace. 66% of respondents “endorsed some level of justification for murdering either or both” of the men.
When broken down by sex, the data found women more likely than men to back either politicians’ assassinations. The poll shows a 15% gap between men and women regarding Trump’s killing, and a 21% margin over Mamdani. Women were more supportive of both potential murders.
We are passionately pro-woman, but these findings throw a wrench in the increasingly popular idea that America needs female leadership. 21% is a massive gap, meaning something about the feminine mind clearly lusts for blood. That’s pretty terrifying. Read more. |
Maryland Man Charged for Plotting to Kill Top Trump Official |
The arrest of a Maryland man accused of plotting to murder Russ Vought went public on Thursday, revealing that even figures as seemingly non-controversial as the Office of Management and Budget Director are unsafe from America’s growing lust for blood.
Prosecutors say 26-year-old Colin Demarco planned to kill Vought to prevent a "fascist takeover.” He allegedly showed up to the father of two’s home wearing a surgical mask and gloves in January. He also authored a manifesto detailing his motives for hating the Trump administration. He is due to appear in court on February 23rd.
Stories like this expose the irony behind the deranged Left’s pro-assassination wing. In order to “stop fascism,” they long to embrace the fascist practice of murdering their political opponents. They should look themselves in the mirror and ask who the real fascists are. Read more.

Venezuelan Nationals Charged for $1 Million Food Stamp Fraud |
Federal prosecutors charged four Venezuelan nationals with million-dollar, multi-state SNAP fraud this week, accusing the foreigners of using stolen identities to defraud America’s food stamp program.
The accused criminals used fraudulent SNAP benefit cards to purchase large quantities of foods like chicken, beef, and pork, then prepared and sold the meats for complete profit, according to U.S. Attorney for Massachusetts Leah Foley. Then, she says the alleged fraudsters wired the scheme’s proceeds to Venezuela and the Dominican Republic.
The restaurant scam amounted to $440,000, but prosecutors believe the suspects filed other fraudulent applications amounting to as much as $700,000 in illegal benefits. Foley blamed states like Massachusetts for maintaining loose application processes that are easy for scammers to exploit.
“Any state that allows online applications without any ability to verify that the documents that are being submitted are authentic is leaving itself open to abuse and to be defrauded,” she said. That is absolutely right. Read more. |
Bitcoin Plunges to Lowest Price Since Trump’s Election |
The price of Bitcoin plummeted to its lowest level since Donald Trump’s inauguration on Thursday, falling all the way to $60,000. The price eclipsed $120,000 in October.
The decrease comes amid growing pessimism over cryptocurrency as a whole. Originally designed to allow people to transact without government or institutional oversight, the system is now completely corrupted by the exact kind of centralized control it was meant to resist. It’s like how DEI once aimed to stop racism, but now it’s a tool for discriminating against whites.
Combine this inversion with the fact that Bitcoin is essentially a fiat currency, meaning it has no physical backing, and you’re looking at a pretty bad investment. The whole system is fake. We think gold is a far better alternative. Read more.

Millions of Americans are counting down the minutes to Sunday night. Whether you’re from Seattle, Boston, or anywhere in between, the Super Bowl is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat.
We have no prediction for which team will hoist the Lombardi Trophy, but we expect to find ourselves happy with either result. The reason is simple: the game is at Levi’s Stadium, one of the NFL’s only venues that is outside and has a grass field.
That might sound silly, but as proud aesthetic enthusiasts, it matters to us a lot. Each of the last four Super Bowls has taken place indoors, on turf fields, or both, as will 2027 and 2028’s big games. Philadelphia and Kansas City played last year’s particularly egregious-looking contest in the New Orleans Superdome, a stadium with less natural light than a prison cell and a “field” made of polyethylene, polypropylene, and nylon. It was a sad sight for anyone who appreciates the great outdoors.
Despite widespread displeasure from people who care about appearances, professional football’s fake field fetish is not going anywhere. Take a look at the following future stadiums, scheduled for construction in Tennessee, Jacksonville, Cleveland, Chicago, Kansas City, Denver, and Washington. Each facility will be fundamentally artificial, meaning none will have soul.
This bland trend expands far beyond the realm of sports. What percentage of American buildings have sheetrock covering their walls or oppressive fluorescent light beaming down from their ceilings? The number is high enough to induce a headache, and the laboratory-like setups help remove citizens from humanity’s roots in nature. Drywall does not inspire creativity. Wood and sunlight do.
What about fast food chains and department stores? Remember when McDonald's looked colorful, bright, and cheerful? The restaurant had the nickname “the golden arches” for a reason. Images of its establishments jumped off the page. But no longer. Look at this comparison between McDonald’s in the 1980s vs today. The restaurants have gone from lively and interesting to dull and cookie-cutter, transforming into the kind of places Winston Smith would have to dine and pretend he liked it. The same goes for dozens of other major American brands. Remember the Cracker Barrel logo saga? It was not an isolated incident.
We’re not entirely sure why this is happening, but it’s more troubling than most people realize. Nations need creative populations, and architecture plays a pivotal role in emboldening or discouraging people from thinking outside the box. Innovation never derives from banality; new ideas require thought-inducing atmospheres. America should save them before they’re gone for good.

February 6, 1820: Freed slaves leave for Africa. The first organized immigration of freed slaves to Africa from the United States departed New York for Freetown, Sierra Leone, cashing in on the $100,000 (over $2.5 million today) Congress had appropriated for returning displaced Africans. The American Colonization Society spearheaded the effort, modeling its campaign after England’s resettlement efforts after abolishing the slave trade in 1772. Thousands of former slaves flocked to the region during the next few decades following the founding of Liberia as a homeland for freed U.S. slaves. Liberia gained independence in 1847 and became Africa’s first independent democratic republic. |
