New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill has joined the anti-ICE crusade, and is getting the state government involved through a new portal to help people track ICE.

“We are going to be standing up a portal so people can upload all their cell phone videos and alert people. If you see an ICE agent in the street, get your phone out.”

On X I responded to a tweet about it by Jesse Kelly by saying:

“The Governor of New Jersey may not be legally obligated to help federal immigration enforcement, but she has no right to interfere with it, which is what she is doing on a massive scale. An example needs to be set”

More winning from our historic and magnificent POTUS!

The ending of Russian oil imports would be particularly significant; yes, even huge. Trump on his phone meeting with India Prime Minister Modi: We spoke about many things, including Trade, and ending the War with Russia and Ukraine. He agreed to stop buying Russian Oil, and to buy much more from the United States and, potentially, Venezuela. This will help END THE WAR in Ukraine, which is taking place right now, with thousands of people dying each and every week! Out of friendship and respect for Prime Minister Modi and, as per his request, effective immediately, we agreed to a Trade Deal between the United States and India, whereby the United States will charge a reduced Reciprocal Tariff, lowering it from 25% to 18% (Truth)

India and China reportedly began edging away from Russian energy after President Trump imposed a 25% punitive tariff on countries doing business with Moscow — a move that signaled consequences.Trump has been pressing Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Russian oil since last summer, and two weeks ago he raised the stakes dramatically, threatening tariffs as high as 500%.

Modi rushed to X to celebrate the new trade agreement at an 18% reciprocal tariff rate.

President Trump has expanded the Mexico City Policy, which blocked U.S. foreign aid to organizations that promote or support abortion, to also block aid going to organizations that promote gender ideology. Trump’s presidency has been characterized by putting American interests first. This revision to the Mexico City Policy reflects one element of this: standing for biological reality.

“The Department does not believe taxpayer dollars should support sex-rejecting procedures, directly or indirectly for individuals of any age,” the policy states. “A person’s body (including its organs, organ systems, and processes natural to human development like puberty) either healthy or unhealthy based on whether they are operating according to their biological functions.”

Republicans massively out-fundraised Democrats in 2025, a massive boon to the GOP heading into the midterm election cycle.

According to recent Federal Election Commission reports, the Republican Party has almost $700 million in cash on hand across six different funding groups. The Democrats have $167 million cash on hand, but the Democratic National Committee is in debt.

“The [Republican National Committee] closed out 2025 in a position of real strength, building a serious war chest as we head into the 2026 midterms focused on defending and expanding our Republican majorities,” said Republican National Committee Chairman Joe Gruters.

An interesting story from the United Kingdom is filling left-wing journalists with horror: Amelia. She’s an Artificial Intelligence creation that has escaped its left-wing government master and been rebadged as a heroine to the anti-mass migrant movement online.

The U.K. is suffering societal backlash and financial pressure due to mass immigration from cultures with little respect for women, yet the Labour Party government is obsessed with patrolling social media to inhibit “far-right” discussion of the migrant problem.

I’m having a hard time wrapping my head around the opposition to programs that recognize bright, eager-to-learn kids and place them in special classes where they can excel and achieve great things.

Yes, the opposition is based on the fact that more white and Asian kids qualify for the special instruction than black kids, but instead of penalizing the “special” kids, why not work harder to uplift the black kids? It appears to me that no one in school districts that cite “white privilege” for why fewer black kids end up in these accelerated classes ever comes up with ideas to raise black kids up instead of holding other kids back.

Probably too much work.

New York’s Democratic Socialist Party Mayor Zohran Mamdani thinks that these special programs that elevate some kids over others based on talent and gifts are an abomination and need to end. Catering to the lowest common denominator in education, the workplace, and government is how socialists keep everything nice and equal — equally mediocre, at least.

For those who prefer to side with the truth, even members of other favored minority groups had better look out, lest the door hit them on the way out.

The latest casualty to this ideological intolerance is Glenna Goldis, a lawyer in the New York attorney general’s office, who was fired in late January for telling the truth about the lack of evidence for carrying out gender transition procedures on minors.

The Canadian government-run euthanasia system has crossed another chilling threshold after Canada’s socialized healthcare system euthanized a disabled man because he was experiencing “loneliness.”

A disabled man in his 60s was put to death under Canada’s expanding Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) regime after citing loneliness and social isolation as the primary reasons for wanting to die.

The alarming case was revealed in a 2025 report from Ontario’s MAiD Death Review Committee (OMDRC).

The man, identified only as Mr. B, lived with cerebral palsy and used a wheelchair.

Car ownership used to come with an unspoken assumption: You bought the vehicle, and it was yours to maintain, repair, and service in any way you saw fit. That assumption is quietly eroding. And one of the clearest signs doesn’t involve software updates or subscription features.

It involves a screw.

Tasks once considered routine — such as clearing fault codes or accessing safety systems — now often require dealer-level credentials or paid subscriptions.

America, glimpse your future. If we continue down the path of islamization as the UK and Europe, this is the inevitability. Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Zohran Mamdani … this is next. Nothing is static, everything is fluid. It’s advances and this direction leads only one way – to hell.

In Birmingham, a convicted terrorist with a documented history of jihadist violence, criminality, and incendiary Islamist rhetoric is now standing for local office, presenting himself as a “unifier.” Shahid Butt, jailed for his role in an armed terror plot and openly advocating violence, religious segregation, and confrontation with “disbelievers,” is being normalized as a legitimate political actor. This is what a fading civilization looks like: one afraid to name its enemies, willing to rebrand extremism as activism, and mistaking intimidation for representation. Nothing is static; everything moves. And when societies refuse to draw lines, the direction of travel is unmistakable—and downward.

The Department of Justice made about 3 million pages worth of documents relating to sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein available on Friday.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said that the latest tranche of documents was winnowed from about 6 million due to personally identifying information of victims, medical files, child pornography images, and any images showing death or abuse, according to ABC News.

The documents released under the Epstein Files Transparency Act include 2,000 videos and 180,000 images.

“We comply with the act, and there is no ‘protect President Trump.’ We didn’t protect or not protect anybody,” Blanche said.

The U.S. Department of Education found the California Department of Education (CDE) in violation of federal family rights law on Wednesday for facilitating the gender “transition” of children and hiding it from their parents.

California pressured school districts across the state to violate the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), a student privacy and parental rights law, by forcing them to conceal student records from parents about their child’s so-called “gender transition,” according to a senior department official detailing the results of an investigation Wednesday.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) says Democrats are ready to defeat a Republican bill intended to fortify election security against fraudulent voting.

The Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act passed the House of Representatives in July and awaits approval from the Senate before heading to the president’s desk, but Democrats hope to derail its trip.

Former President Bill Clinton and his failed presidential candidate wife, Hillary Clinton, have agreed to testify before Congress after being threatened with contempt charges.

The Clintons previously issued a defiant statement accusing the administration of using the apparatus of government to punish their political enemies, but they changed their tune Monday.

‘The former President and former Secretary of State will be there. They look forward to setting a precedent that applies to everyone.’

This was entirely predictable. New York City’s voters elected a Hamas supporting Communist as mayor. This is the result. Now that they have an ally in Gracie Mansion, New York City’s pro-Hamas citizens will most certainly escalate their attacks against New York City’s Jewish community. President Trump and AG Bondi will very likely have to intervene and provide protection for New York City’s Jewish citizens. Shame on every Jewish New Yorker who voted for Mamdani.

This isn’t a grassroots protest — it’s a coordinated, well-funded revolutionary movement.

What unfolded in Minnesota was not spontaneous outrage but a disciplined, well-funded campaign aimed at dismantling U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and, by extension, the rule of law itself. The same radical networks, foreign-linked funders, and professional agitators are driving it — including China-connected billionaire pipelines and hard-left communist factions.

UK Government To Go After Dogs In Fight To Up Diversity: “A Lot Muslims Don’t Have Dogs As Pets” – louderwithcrowder.com

While you may have already known that the government in the UK gives special treatment to one ethnicity over the other, what you may have never expected is that, to appease the altar of diversity, your dogs are no longer safe.

According to the Encyclopedia of Religion and Nature, Islam sees “dogs as impure animals, or, at least, that their saliva is a contaminant that voids a Muslim’s ritual purity.” But it’s not just that they don’t like dogs; they are also racist towards dogs. According to “Muhammad, the Prophet of Islam, black dogs are evil, or even devils, in animal form.”

So, not only are your dogs not safe anymore in the UK, but they may or may not go after the Black dogs first. Incredible, yet deeply racist towards our canine population.

Chile’s National Institute of Statistics (INE) on Wednesday published data that showed the country’s fertility rate has fallen to the lowest level in its recorded history: just 0.97 children per woman.

The INE noted that births began to decline in Chile beginning in 2010. Last year, the fertility rate was 1.06 children and, if the trend continues, it will sink to 0.89 in 2028.

INE head of demography Miguel Ojeda predicted “the number of deaths will exceed the number of births” in 2028, “beginning a period of negative population growth.”

Bill C-218 is a private members bill that is being debated in Canada. If passed Bill C-218 would prevent euthanasia for mental illness alone in Canada.

  • No MAiD for Mental Illness (Link).

An article that was published in the Toronto Star on December 13, 2025 titled: Should MAiD be extended to include those with mental illness? is a debate between Dr Ellen Wiebe, Canada’s most notorious euthanasia killer and Dr John Maher, a psychiatrist and ethicist who focuses on caring for people with severe and persistent mental illnesses.

Will the ubiquity of chatbots lead to a generation of doctors who don’t know their stuff? That’s the danger, according to a new editorial in BMJ Evidence-Based Medicine.

The authors, led by Jacob Hough at the University of Missouri, outline the many ways that AI use can undermine medical education, like automation bias, de-skilling, and providing false information.

“These tools can fabricate sources, encode bias, lead to over-reliance and have negatively disruptive effects on the educational journey. Medical programmes must be vigilant about these risks and adjust their curricula and training programmes to stay ahead of them and mitigate their likelihood,” they write.

First lady Melania Trump’s new documentary is set to outpace projections and open to the best weekend for any documentary in over a decade. 

The eponymously titled Melania was expected to open to around $5 million across 1,778 screens, according to the Hollywood Reporter. However, the film is doing better than expected with a gross of around $8 million despite negative reception from film critics.

The film’s audience is primarily women and older viewers; 72% of the film’s audience on Friday comprised of women over the age of 55, and 78% of all viewers were older than 55.

The Department of Health and Human Services, through its Office for Civil Rights (OCR), has issued a clear notice that pro-lifers will welcome: pharmacies nationwide are no longer required to supply the abortion drug.

Under the Biden administration, policies in favor of abortion dramatically increased. In the wake of the Supreme Court’s 2022 Dobbs decision — which returned abortion regulation to the states and the people — the former administration issued guidance pressuring nearly 60,000 retail pharmacies to stock and dispense mifepristone and misoprostol for patients with Medicare, Medicaid, or other federally funded coverage. This move drew significant criticism and legal challenges from the onset, as many argued it overrode conscience rights and state laws.

Activist organizations are developing curricula instructing teachers and students to be skeptical toward claims of anti-Semitism and sympathetic to pro-Palestinian causes, documents show.

Two pro-Palestinian organizations, Participatory Action Research Center for Organizing and Project48, orchestrate programs and disseminate materials that blame “white nationalism” for anti-Semitism and ask participants to consider the “bad habit” of whiteness, documents obtained by Defending Education and shared exclusively with the Daily Caller News Foundation show.

The activist programs are already finding their way into schools.

Right-wing political scientist Laura Fernandez won Costa Rica’s presidential election on Sunday by a landslide, after promising to crack down hard on rising violence linked to the cocaine trade.

Fernandez’s nearest rival, center-right economist Alvaro Ramos, conceded defeat as results showed the ruling party far exceeding the threshold of 40 percent needed to avoid a run-off.

With 81.24 percent of polling stations counted, the political heir of outgoing President Rodrigo Chaves had 48.94 percent of the vote compared to 33.02 percent for Ramos.

The comments were made by Minister of Industry Mélanie Joly during a recent House of Commons industry committee meeting after she was grilled by Conservative MPs about concerns over a new bill relating to the internet. 

Joly claimed that the federal cabinet under Prime Minister Mark Carney needs the new powers to deal with “a chaotic and dangerous world.”

“I think it’s important for people to remember that, since we’re living in a much more chaotic and dangerous world, the government has to deal with a lot of hostile actors that can sometimes go after our critical infrastructure including the state ones,” she told the committee.

Joly was giving her testimony regarding Bill C-8, known as An Act Respecting Cyber Security.

“Melania,” the documentary centered on first lady Melania Trump, delivered a box-office surprise with a $7 million opening weekend, according to estimates released Sunday, Feb. 1, by Amazon MGM Studios.

Directed by Brett Ratner, the film had been expected to open between $3 million and $5 million. It chronicles the 20 days leading up to President Donald Trump’s second inauguration in 2025, told from his wife’s perspective. Final box-office figures will be released Feb. 2.

Anything above $1 million is “a huge number,” said Jeff Bock, senior media analyst for Exhibitor Relations, in an interview with USA TODAY ahead of the release. “That would mean that a lot of folks who don’t normally go to the movies went to this.”
