Europe’s panic economy: frozen assets, empty arsenals, and the quiet admission of defeat
By Gerry Nolan
When a prime minister tells her own staff to rest because next year will be much worse, it is not gallows humor. It is not exhaustion speaking. It is a slip of the mask, the kind of remark leaders make only when the internal forecasts no longer align with the public script.
Giorgia Meloni was not addressing voters. She was addressing the state itself — the bureaucratic core tasked with executing decisions whose consequences can no longer be disguised.
Europe can posture for war. It cannot produce for war. Four years into a high-intensity war of attrition, the United States and Europe are confronting a truth they spent decades unlearning: you do not sustain this kind of conflict with theatrical speeches, sanctions, or abandoning diplomacy. You sustain it with shells, missiles, trained crews, repair cycles, and production rates that exceed losses — month after month, without interruption.
By 2025, the gap is no longer theoretical.

Poverty levels in Europe in 2024
Within individual countries, the proportion of the population living below the poverty line exceeds 30% in a number of regions. The problem is most acute in some areas of southern Italy, rural regions of Romania, and certain remote areas of France.

Kristi Noem put a boot on the necks of Dems who want to cause chaos at ICE facilities
Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem isn't having it from Democrat lawmakers who wish to further inflame rising tensions in the wake of the shooting death of far-left agitator Renee Nicole Good last Wednesday in Minneapolis. A day after the shooting, Noem quietly updated DHS's policy, which will now require Members of Congress to submit visit requests at least one week prior to the intended visit date.
The move by Noem comes after a December decision by U.S. District Judge Jia Cobb, a Joe Biden appointee, that blocked a previous DHS directive requiring a one-week notice of congressional visits to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention facilities. It's a bit nuanced, but it looks like Noem is able to sidestep Cobb's order by using funds from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA).
In issuing the new/old guidance, Noem stated that she disagreed with Judge Cobb's finding, but intended to use funds derived from the OBBBA that are not subject to limitations cited by the judge in her ruling. DHS will use the OBBBA-derived funds to "ensure adequate protection for Members of Congress, congressional staff, detainees, and ICE employees alike."

Red state residents speak out on the blue state invasion and spark viral videos
We Southerners have never taken to outsiders coming in and telling us how to live. You know the type, the person from “off” who comes in, buys a house, and proceeds to inform the locals who’ve been there for generations just what they are doing wrong.
Lucky for us, though, he's here now and has come to set us straight. If it’s a one-time thing, you'll get away with a “bless your heart.” If you complain too much, we’ll encourage you to find greener pastures elsewhere. We’ll wave goodby quoting an old commercial: Delta is ready when you are.
In the last few years, as our nation has balkanized, we’ve experienced a new type of carpetbagger in the red states: a liberal fed up with the natural end results of the policies he/she/they espoused. This weekend one TikTok user, @thecarolinerfiles, went viral expressing her disgust with the hordes of newcomers moving in and changing their new homes.
Southern hospitality isn't what y'all said it was gonna’ be. Y'all ain't very hospitable. Well yeah, that's because everyone and their mother is moving to the South and these small towns and changing everything.
So yes, we're upset, yes we're not going to welcome the changing of literally f****ing everything in our area because y'all want to make it more like home where you came from. Why did you leave there then? Why are you going to move down here and turn this place exactly into the s***hole that you left?

The hidden fraud machine draining US in plain sight
As massive daycare fraud prosecutions and ICE enforcement actions dominate headlines in Minnesota and beyond, many Americans are asking the same question: how did this happen for so long, and why did no one stop it sooner? Jeremy Jones joins Elizabeth Farah to explain the systems that make scandals like this inevitable.
While the interview does not focus on a single daycare case, Jeremy breaks down the exact mechanics behind stories Americans are seeing right now. Shell nonprofits using the same addresses and employees. Recycled LLCs that shut down and reopen under new names. Identical bookkeeping setups appearing across supposedly unrelated organizations.
Immigration and refugee resettlement pipelines that pour money into local programs with little real verification. These are the patterns underlying the daycare fraud investigations and the reason federal enforcement is now stepping in.
This interview gives viewers the framework to understand today's headlines, not just react to them. It explains why daycare fraud, nonprofit abuse, and immigration-related financial scandals are not isolated failures, but predictable outcomes of fragmented government systems, and why the tools to stop them already exist.

Federal prosecutors launch criminal investigation into fed chairman J. Powell
Federal investigators have opened a criminal investigation into Fed Chairman Jerome Powell. Powell is under fire for the cost of renovating the Fed’s DC headquarters. The cost ballooned from $1.9 billion to $2.5 billion.
“The Fed’s renovation project was approved by its board in 2017 and originally cost $1.9 billion in 2019. Construction began in 2021, but the cost swelled to $2.5 billion because of “unforeseen conditions” requiring more spending to rectify, such as “more asbestos than anticipated, toxic contamination in soil, and a higher-than-expected water table,” according to the Fed’s website,” CNN reported.
Last July, Jerome Powell was criminally referred to the Justice Department for prosecution. GOP Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna sent a letter to the DOJ accusing Powell of perjury.
Powell panicked and released a video response.
Jerome Powell said the Federal Reserve released grand jury subpoenas from the DOJ that threatened a criminal indictment.

Patriots raise over 250,000 dollars for Minnesota ICE agent as his family go into hiding
American patriots have raised over $250,000 for the ICE agent at the center of the left-wing storm over the killing of a protester.
The ICE agent clearly acted in self-defense after the immigration activist Renee Nicole Good attempted to run him over after he repeatedly urged her to get out of the car.
Fearing for his life, he shot and fatally struck the woman in question.
As protests erupt across the country and left-wing activists demand vengeance, the agent’s life has been turned upside down.
Thankfully, patriots and conservatives in America and around the world are supporting him and his family during this difficult moment.
A fundraiser on GoFundMe has already raised over $220,000, well on its way to the $300,000 goal.

President Trump signals Cuba is about to fall
It turns out, Venezuela was the lynchpin to an astonishing house of cards on the world stage, which is now systematically starting to fall.
Iran seems to be on the verge of complete collapse, or perhaps has already fallen according to some reports.
And Cuba, closely intertwined with Venezuela, is fast unraveling and should collapse next.
President Trump just made the announcement on TruthSocial, reposted by The White House on X: “…THERE WILL BE NO MORE OIL OR MONEY GOING TO CUBA – ZERO! I strongly suggest they make a deal, BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE. Thank you for your attention to this matter.”- President Donald J.

Switzerland leads the world in terms of the number of millionaires: there are 145.6 per 1,000 adults. This means that approximately one in seven Swiss adults is a millionaire.
Next come Hong Kong (96.1), Australia (85.2), and the United States (84.8), forming a dense cluster just below the 100 threshold.
India (0.8), Brazil (2.5), and Russia (3.6) are at the bottom of the ranking, highlighting the large differences in wealth distribution between regions.

German State PM criticized for demanding crackdown on news sites and social media
Daniel Günther, the Conservative Prime Minster of the German State of Schleswig-Holstein, has come under fire for publicly embracing censorship of critical news sites and social media.
Prominent media lawyer Joachim Steinhöfel called Günther “an arsonist masking as a good citizen while declaring war on the freedom of the press”, Welt reported today. He said Günther was apparently regarding the free press as a security risk that had to be managed by the State.
On January 7, Günther, a prominent politician with the ruling Christian Democratic Union (CDU) party of German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, had joined the talk show Markus Lanz on State broadcasting station ZDF, originally to talk about the danger of a US annexation of Greenland.
Günther, though, used the opportunity to lash out at Germany’s main opposition party, the right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, as well as at critical news media and US-run social media platforms.
“We are allowing our youth to be infiltrated via US tech companies who of course do not have the best for our democracy in mind”, he said. He added that US Vice President JD Vance was “also behind this”.

“Our position has already been determined” — Keir Starmer has refused to ban marriages between cousins in the UK
Last year, opponents of marriages between relatives proposed introducing a ban due to health problems that arise in children born to such couples.
The effect is particularly negative when such unions are formed from generation to generation. The Prime Minister's Office said that he opposes such marriages. However, when it came to introducing a ban, he did not support such a measure.

Read why Trump wants Greenland!
Based on recent statements from European leaders, you could be forgiven for forgetting that the United States just captured the incumbent leader of Venezuela. That’s because their attention has, overwhelmingly, been focused elsewhere: To the north, on Greenland.
Europe’s leadership, always stuck in the second half of the 20th century, seems perplexed with Trump’s dogged determination to bring the island of Greenland under American control. Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said it made “absolutely no sense to talk about the need for the United States to take over Greenland,” given America’s relationship with Denmark which, in her telling, “gives the United States wide access to Greenland.”
Underneath this all is a sense of genuine confusion, centred around two questions: 1) Why? and 2) How?
The first seems to be befuddling Europeans the most. Why would the United States desire to conquer a country in which they already have a space (formerly air) base, and which is a member of NATO? The answer is befuddling Europeans because it does not lie in the present – it lies in the future. The far future.

The UK deceived Iran by refusing to supply tanks after the revolution. It agreed to return the money only 42 years later
Boris Johnson spoke about the £400 million deal to sell Chieftain tanks, concluded in 1974. At that time, the British received money for the equipment and refused to deliver it because of the Islamic revolution in 1979.
The British authorities refused to return the money that had been paid to the fugitive shah from the country's budget.
It was only in 2021 that the UK agreed to pay Iran £400 million in compensation. Over the years, inflation in the British currency has exceeded 800%.

Stop the Monroe revisionism
“[T]herefore you may rest assured that if the Nicaraguan activities were brought to light, they would furnish one of the largest scandals in the history of the country.”
Such was the concluding line of a letter from Marine Corps Sergeant Harry Boyle to Idaho Senator William Borah on April 23, 1930. Boyle’s warning was not merely an artifact of a bygone intervention, but a caution against imperial hubris — one newly relevant in the wake of “Operation Absolute Resolve" in Venezuela.
The Trump administration has amplified the afterglow of its tactical success with renewed assertions of hemispheric hegemony through a nostalgic and often ahistorical reading of the Monroe Doctrine. Despite the administration’s enthusiasm for old-fashioned hemispheric imperialism, the historical record ought to caution for restraint, not revisionism.
When modern American officials invoke the Monroe Doctrine, they often do so with a confidence that suggests its meaning is settled and its record vindicated. Historically, the doctrine — both in meaning and in application — was far more contested than modern enthusiasts let on. Indeed, the high-water mark of American imperialism in the Caribbean exposed the high costs and meager returns of micromanaging neighboring states.

J.K. Rowling blasts silence of leftists amid protests in Iran
J.K. Rowling blasted the silence of leftists who claim to be human rights supporters amid the recent anti-Islamic regime protests in Iran, saying their silence proves they don’t care about "people being oppressed and brutalized" as long as it’s being “done by the enemies of your enemies.”
The famed “Harry Potter” author was one of the first to effectively rail against the injustice of the insane transgender agenda, proven right by everyone eventually. And once again, she’s on the right side of history, showing her support to those people who are risking their lives in Iran by speaking out against their oppressive government.
“If you claim to support human rights yet can’t bring yourself to show solidarity with those fighting for their liberty in Iran, you’ve revealed yourself,” Rowling wrote in a post on X. “You don’t give a damn about people being oppressed and brutalized so long as it’s being done by the enemies of your enemies.”

Airline terminated its contract for ICE deportation flights
Some rather dramatic news emerged earlier this January that an airline that has been working with the government to conduct deportation flights out of the country has suspended its agreement with the agency.
Avelo Airlines has announced it will no longer be conducting the travel arrangements it had been performing out of Arizona’s Mesa Gateway Airport for the Immigration and Customs Service.
Upon hearing this announcement, the press has been rather giddy in detailing the cessation of this partnership. Since publicizing its new business arrangement in April, the low-fare carrier faced protests, boycotts, and backlash from travelers, flight attendant unions, local politicians and immigration activists. Adding to the excitement was CBS News, which tried to suggest that this move had been made in light of that opposition.
This appears to be more of a case of puffery from this protest group. Avelo is a small carrier operating out of Houston that mostly services smaller connections with cities not normally serviced by the larger airlines. Rather than being a prominent partner with ICE, it was, in truth, being subcontracted to perform this service.
The Department of Homeland Security has an arrangement with another entity, CSI Aviation, which orchestrated the flight agreements with a number of carriers, Avelo being but one of those companies.
