Confirming our reported from both a week ago (see "As Gulf States Plan Bypass Pipelines, US Military Is Quietly Helping Ships Cross Hormuz") and this afternoon ("Growing Number Of Oil Tankers Successfully Sneak Through Hormuz, Shrinking Iran's Leverage") moments ago Trump posted on Truth Social that he had "directed our Great U.S.
In a world already drowning with debt, the only certainty is even more debt According to a new analysis by Bloomberg, governments are borrowing from syndicated bond markets at a record clip as public spending surges. That's in addition to direct sales where the government auctions off debt to institutional investors and individuals. Sovereign issuers have sold $504 billion of the debt - which is offered to investors via banks - so far this year, a new record.
The Department of Homeland Security’s general counsel issued a directive ordering Immigration and Customs Enforcement to deport any undocumented immigrant who casts a ballot in a U.S. election. The order cites the Immigration and Nationality Act, which already provides for removal of aliens who vote illegally or make false claims of citizenship.
Under the new guidance, illegal voting and false citizenship claims are treated as grounds for deportation even without a criminal conviction. The policy states that participation in elections by unauthorized immigrants dilutes the votes of citizens and undermines the democratic process, and therefore must carry consequences.
The move is tied to a 2025 executive order issued by former President Donald Trump that called for a range of actions to protect election integrity, including verification of voter eligibility and enforcement of federal integrity laws. The DHS directive is presented as an implementation of that order, extending its reach to immigration enforcement.
The latest action follows a 2025 update to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services policy manual, which barred green‑card holders who have voted or registered to vote from obtaining citizenship. Together, the policies create a framework that links voting violations directly to immigration consequences.
OpenAI is moving along in talks to lease a proposed 10-gigawatt data center campus on federal land in Ohio, according to a new report from The Information, in a deal that could include financial backing from Nvidia.
Authored by Victor Davis Hanson via American Greatness, In the #MeToo years, the Left’s signature slogan was “Believe All Women!” That directive was used to bolster Christine Blasey Ford’s preposterous and easily refuted 2018 allegations that some 35 years earlier she had been sexually assaulted by Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, when both were teenagers. Two years later, the Left quietly junked that “Believe Women!” credo when Tara Reade came forward and lodged a far more credible charge that 2020 Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden had sexually assaulted her when she was a Biden s
Solar power held a record-high 12.8% share of US electricity supply in May, overtaking coal-generated power for the first full month on record, energy think tank Ember said in a report on Wednesday. As OilPrice notes, while the share of solar-generated power jumped to a record high for a full month, the share of coal in the U.S.
With tech stocks cracking for a 3rd straight day, and with the broader market closing at the lows in a surprising sign of weakness, many were looking to ORCL to kickstart the AI euphoria which has been oddly missing in recent days (and which send NVDA stock briefly just below the key level of $200). Well, for those hoping that ORCL would be the much needed spark, they may be disappointed after ORCL stock pumped in kneejerk reaction (despite Q4 earnings that were mixed at best)....
Authored by Steve Watson via Modernity, CNN's latest "Run the Numbers" segment lays bare a brutal reality for Democrats: their radical immigration stance has left them bleeding support across every demographic, while President Trump racks up historic approval on the issue. The numbers don't lie, and even the network long accused of carrying water for open-border advocates is now spotlighting just how badly the party has botched border security. One anchor stated plainly what millions of Americans have known for years: "Democrats have a PROBLEM." ?? JUST IN - CNN just completely BOMBED Democrat
First AI came for Software, disrupting its various offshoots and sparking a brutal bear market at the start of the year before a powerful squeeze sent software stocks surging in recent weeks. Now, it's the turn of professional services, including law firms, accountancies and consulting firms, which according to Apollo’s co-president, Scott Kleinman are likely to be the next sector to face disruption from artificial intelligence. Investors have had their worries focused on the software sector, and the extent to which AI will upend these businesses.
Authored By Ben Bartee at Armageddon Prose Substack In response to a question on the topic posed by ZeroHedge reporter Liam Cosgrove, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. recently addressed the astronomical increase in alpha-gal syndrome, a tick-borne infection that causes potentially life-threatening allergic reactions to red meat: “Last week, I went to New Hampshire… to address this explosion of alpha-gal, and we take it very seriously. One of the epicenters is Martha’s Vineyard where 50% of the adult population is now affected. It is really a devastating disease.
