Scientists discover crystal that breathes oxygen like lungs
A team of scientists from Korea and Japan has discovered a new type of crystal that can “breathe” — releasing and absorbing oxygen repeatedly at relatively low temperatures. This unique ability could transform the way we develop clean energy technologies, including fuel cells, energy-saving windows, and smart thermal devices.
Mamdani’s Inner Circle Includes Communists, Radical Islamic Supremacists and Anti-Israel Activists
Mamdani says one thing, but what he intends to do when he’s elected mayor of New York City is nothing less than a melding of communism and Islamofascism. It’s a nightmare set to spread to other large blue cities across the nation if it isn’t stopped quickly.
Whitewashed: How the FBI Misclassifies Middle Eastern Crime — and Why America Risks Becoming the Next Europe
If America doesn’t demand honest crime reporting now, we are on track to repeat Europe’s nightmare. For years, Americans have been told that “white men are the greatest threat to this country.” Official statistics even claim that 57.5% of all sexual offenders are white. But what if those numbers are a lie?
COVID Vaccine-Induced “Turbo Cancers” And a Promising Cancer Treatment
It is amazing how many of the COVID “conspiracy theories” turn out to be 100% true. The origins of COVID, the efficacy of the vaccine, the failures of the government’s draconian COVID response, the damage schools closing would do to our children, the attacks on Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine, and the list goes on and on and on.
Operation Raise the Colours: Flying the national flag has become an act of rebellion
A significant controversy has erupted across England, with residents defiantly raising the St George’s Cross flag in a grassroots movement dubbed “Operation Raise the Colours,” which has been met with swift removal by left-wing local councils citing public safety and maintenance concerns. This act of civil disobedience, framed by its supporters as a patriotic response to mass immigration and national decline, has intensified a broader culture war over national identity, with critics accusing the movement of promoting “far-right” ideologies. But the criticism is falling on deaf ears as “Operation Raise the Colours” spreads to Scotland and Wales.

Israel says UN misleads world as Gaza aid stolen and diverted from civilians

Come On Man! It Seemed Like Peace Was So Close, But Now “War Fever” Has Returned With A Vengeance
I have to admit that I am feeling pretty frustrated today. Last week, there was so much optimism that we could finally see peace, but now “war fever” has returned with a vengeance. The situation in the Middle East threatens to spiral out of control, there is a very real possibility that the U.S. military could soon be conducting operations in Mexico and Venezuela, and it appears that our last chance for peace with Russia could be going up in smoke. I was writing about a coming war with Russia many years before it became fashionable, and I continue to warn in the strongest terms possible about what will happen if we do not reverse course. But of course world leaders do not listen to people like us, and they continue to make decisions that could drag us into the unthinkable.
Canada’s MAiD business is booming, sparking a cottage industry to profit from the Government’s mass murder program
Canada has seen a significant increase in government-assisted suicide, with one in twenty deaths resulting from Medical Assistance in Dying (“MAiD”), leading to a growing industry of doctors and private enterprises catering to this demand. The rise of this industry raises serious concerns about the erosion of informed consent and the principle of “do no harm” in Western medicine. It has become a dystopian reality.
Ed Dowd: The imminent global “deep recession” will be used to usher in CBDCs
Edward Dowd, a former Wall Street money manager and founding Partner of Phinance Technologies, predicts a severe financial crisis in the United States, potentially worse than the 2008 crash, with the most critical phase expected to unfold in 2025/2026.

Bow to Allah or Prison: Moderate’ Malaysia Jails Muslims 2 Years for Skipping Friday Prayers
Malaysia, long praised as a “moderate” Muslim nation compatible with Western values, has just taken another step into hardline authoritarianism. In Terengganu state, governed by the Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party (PAS), men can now face up to two years in prison—or fines of 3,000 ringgit (US$710)—if they fail to attend Friday prayers without an approved excuse.
