Authorities Put CCP-Tied Trailer Park Next To Top Secret U.S. Bomber Base On Notice

January 24, 2026/in Chinese influence, Culture War, Elections, Hot Topics, National Security, News, Policy, Politics, Socialism/by The Daily Caller

Missouri is moving to shut down a trailer park business bordering Whiteman Air Force Base after a Daily Caller News Foundation investigation uncovered links between the property and a convicted fraudster with Chinese Communist Party (CCP) intelligence ties.

Secretary of State Denny Hoskins announced Thursday the administrative cancellation of Property Solutions 3603 LP, the operator of a Knob Noster Trailer Park that shares a perimeter fence with Whiteman Air Force Base, home to the B-2 stealth bombers. The company is ultimately controlled by a Georgia-based firm owned by a Canadian couple with ties to disgraced Chinese tycoon Miles Guo, who has publicly identified himself as a former CCP intelligence “affiliate,” a November DCNF investigation revealed.

“We applaud Secretary of State Denny Hoskins for taking this strong action to ensure Missouri’s laws are appropriately enforced,” Republican Missouri Rep. Mark Alford told the DCNF. “We have raised the alarm about the potential links between the Chinese nationals who own the Knob Noster Trailer Park next to Whiteman AFB through this shell corporation and the Chinese Communist Party.”

Business records obtained by the DCNF show the property is owned through a web of shell companies controlled by Esther Mei and Cheng Hu. The Canadian couple has connections to the New Federal State of China, an organization associated with Guo. The self-described former CCP-affiliate was convicted in 2024 for orchestrating a fraud scheme exceeding $1 billion and is currently awaiting sentencing.

Mei, Hu and the New Federal State of China did not respond to the DCNF’s requests for comment, while Guo could not be reached.

Hoskins’ office said the cancellation followed a routine compliance review that found the company’s registered agent information was inaccurate and failed to meet statutory requirements. The office formally notified the registered agent in November, but the deficiencies were not corrected within the allotted time frame.

“Failure to respond to notice is a strong indicator that an entity is not operating responsibly or in good faith,” Hoskins’ office told the DCNF.

“When you operate next to Whiteman Air Force Base, good faith and compliance are the bare minimum,” said Hoskins. “Missouri doesn’t make excuses for entities that refuse to meet them.”

Though the secretary of state described the action as routine enforcement of Missouri business law, Hoskins said persistent legal noncompliance is “inherently concerning, particularly when it involves entities operating near secure or sensitive locations, including critical military installations.”

Those concerns were underscored in early January when federal prosecutors announced charges against a Chinese illegal immigrant who allegedly photographed the B-2 aircraft by the base’s perimeter fence.

Worries about Chinese-owned property near sensitive military sites extend beyond Whiteman Air Force Base. Air Force Global Strike Command, based at Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana and oversees all U.S. intercontinental ballistic missiles and nuclear bombers, is flanked by two golf courses owned by a Chinese intelligence official, a January DCNF investigation found.

“Secretary Hoskins deserves the gratitude of all Americans for acting decisively to protect American national security,” Michael Lucci, founder and CEO of State Armor, told the DCNF. “When Hoskins saw a company presenting a threat to Whiteman Air Force Base, he acted to administratively cancel that company for violating Missouri law.”

Lucci added that other state officers must use their authority to safeguard the homeland from CCP influence.

Missouri previously won a $25 billion lawsuit against the Chinese government for “causing and exacerbating the COVID-19 pandemic” and for hoarding medical equipment during the pandemic.

“Whether it’s ‘show me the filings’ for this limited partnership or ‘show me the money’ for Covid reparations, the Show Me state is showing the CCP that no one is above the law in Missouri,” Jacqueline Deal, a State Armor advisory board member, told the DCNF.

State Armor provided information to the DCNF for use in its investigation.

“This is a great step, but we shouldn’t confuse compliance concerns with national security and counterintelligence issues,” L.J. Eads, a former Air Force intelligence analyst, told the DCNF.

“Florida and New Hampshire are just getting started in their pursuits for statewide counterintelligence units … we should start seeing more of that effort, especially where the states could help defend our military installations and surrounding areas,” Eads said, calling for a national approach to counter CCP operations in the U.S.

Alford said his office will continue pressing federal authorities to closely scrutinize foreign ownership of property near the critical military installation.

STARRS Town Hall: “The Threat of the Red-Green Axis” with speaker John Guandolo

January 24, 2026/in Anti-Semitism, Censorship, Communism, Culture War, Elections, Hot Topics, Lawfare, Marxism, National Security, News, Policy, Politics, Radical Islamic Terrorism, Socialism, Terrorism, Violence, Waste, Fraud and Abuse/by Stand Together Against Racism and Radicalism in the Services (STARRS)

In this powerful and eye-opening STARRS Town Hall, guest speaker John Guandolo (USNA ’89 grad, former Marine officer and FBI Special Agent) outlined his path from FBI counterterrorism work to training government and local entities on the “Red-Green Axis” — the collaboration between Islamist and Marxist movements. These movements have a common enemy: America and the US Constitution.

He talked about how the U.S. is engaged in a non-kinetic war primarily in the information and counterintelligence space. He explained how Islamist and communist networks operate together at the local level across the country and view themselves in late-stage victory.

John discussed how Sharia is the doctrinal basis for jihad and governance in normative Islam, is taught consistently to Muslim youth, and that Western leaders mischaracterize Islam due to influence operations and deceptive language use.

He says U.S. policy fixates on “violent extremism” (a term he argues has no legal meaning) rather than legally defined enemies (e.g., jihadis, communists), which blinds institutions to the true threat and leads to strategic failure.

John said Islamic Sharia-based movements seek to replace the US Constitution, so anyone who swore an oath to the Constitution has a duty to defend it against such efforts–foreign and domestic.

Negotiations 101: The Greenland Edition

January 23, 2026/in Culture War, Elections, Hot Topics, Marxism, National Security, News, Policy, Politics, Socialism, Terrorism, Violence, Waste, Fraud and Abuse/by Kenneth R. Timmerman

President Trump traveled to Davos, Switzerland, this week to lay down the law to the world’s effete elites.

We’re taking Greenland, he thundered, whether you like it or not.

And in a nearly two-hour speech, he explained in great detail why the Greenland icecap is of tremendous strategic importance — not just to the United States, but to NATO writ-large.

For starters, all of Russia’s ICBM launchers border the polar icecap. If trained on Washington, DC, missiles launched from those sites would all cross over Greenland. The same goes for China’s ICBM launchers. This is why the president wants to base his Golden Dome anti-missile system in Greenland.

Clearly, the American taxpayer cannot be expected to make such a huge investment if, at some later date, the Danes or the Greenlanders could kick us out.

There is plenty of precedent for that happening. We lost the world’s largest naval base at Subic Bay in 1992, after the Philippines’ government extorted us for huge increases in lease payments.

In 2003, Turkey refused US requests to use our airbase in Incirlik to support the 40-nation liberation of Iraq. And who knows what type of limits Iran-ally Qatar has been putting on our enormous al-Udeid airbase outside Doha.

Do you think that might be one reason why the president ordered the USS Abraham Lincoln and its carrier strike group to steam from the South China Sea to Bahrain last week?

So the lessons of history are clear: if we are to invest massive resources in overseas military bases, we had better own them. Forever.

And then, of course, there is the immediate threat of Russian warships prowling the polar icecap, and the Chinese taking advantage of the ice melt to reopen the northern passage as a much shorter transit route for bringing oil to China.

After all the huffing and puffing of the Euro-elites, they all finally bowed down to the don.

Trump is the capo di tutti capi. The little French and German sottocapi, and the tiny Danish wannabe neighborhood lieutenants, all lined up and stood at attention.

This was Trump negotiation 101. Come out with demands guaranteed to outrage; then settle for what he wanted initially.

He already announced he wanted Greenland in 2019. And again in January 2025. I wrote about it then. But the Euros just brushed him off. This time, by inflating his demands and threatening force, he got the Euros’ attention. And it worked.

We’ve wanted Greenland for at least 150 years. Remember Seward’s folly? When Secretary of State William H. Seward negotiated the purchase of Alaska from Russia in 1867, he initially wanted to buy Greenland and Iceland from Denmark as well.

We tried again in 1910, thinking to trade Greenland for Mindanao and Palawan, which Denmark would then trade with Germany for Northern Schleswig.

In April 1941, before the United States entered World War II, we signed an agreement with Denmark that allowed the US Army to begin construction of the massive Bluie West One base where my father was later stationed during the war.

But because that agreement did not transfer sovereignty to the United States, subsequent governments were able to walk it back.

It now appears that the Danes will cede large swathes of virtually uninhabited icecap to us while they continue to transfer vast sums to the 56,000 Greenlanders to maintain their social welfare statelet. I guess that is the price of pride.

On this week’s Prophecy Today Weekend I discuss this as well as our expanding LNG exports to Europe, warning signs from Trump’s new Board of Peace, and the trail of tears of Iranian freedom-lovers, whose loved ones are being hauled from their homes, shot in hospitals, and sold back to their families for burial.

As always, you can listen live at 1 PM on Saturday on 104.9 FM or 550 AM in the Jacksonville, Florida, area, or by using the Jacksonville Way Radio app. Later, you can listen to the podcast here.

Yours in freedom.

Mexico Has More Consulates in U.S. Than Any Foreign County and Are Helping Illegal Mexican Aliens

Mexico using ‘weaponized immigration’ to undermine US sovereignty, author of new book alleges

Investigative author Peter Schweizer claims Mexico’s government is using consulates, education programs and migrant outreach to exert political influence inside the United States.

Investigative author Peter Schweizer alleges the Mexican government is operating a coordinated influence effort inside the United States, using diplomatic missions, education programs and migrant outreach initiatives in ways he argues go far beyond traditional diplomacy.

In an interview with Fox News Digital, Schweizer said his forthcoming book, “The Invisible Coup,” available Tuesday, documents what he describes as “weaponized immigration,” a strategy he claims Mexican officials view as a means to exert political leverage inside the U.S.

“Foreign powers are using migration as a weapon to undermine American sovereignty,” Schweizer said. “Mexico is a clear example of this.”

Schweizer pointed to Mexico’s expansive diplomatic footprint in the United States, noting that the country operates 53 consulates nationwide — far more than most U.S. allies.

“Those consular officials have been tied up in organizing political activity in the United States, which is a clear violation of their diplomatic status,” said Schweizer, investigative journalist and co-founder, alongside former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon, of the conservative think tank Government Accountability Institute (GAI).

Schweizer alleged that Mexican consular officials have supported or encouraged anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) protests in the U.S., pointing to what he described as instances in which officials praised or took credit for community mobilization following immigration enforcement actions.

Mexican consulates routinely provide legal assistance and outreach to migrant communities after ICE raids, which Mexican officials characterize as consular protection duties, though critics argue the efforts blur the line between assistance and political activism.

Schweizer also cited the role of Mexico’s so-called “migrant legislators” — elected Mexican officials who reside in the United States and represent Mexicans living abroad — as evidence of cross-border political engagement. While those officials do not hold U.S. office, some have participated in advocacy events in the United States, raising questions among critics about the scope of foreign political activity on American soil.

Schweizer further claimed the Mexican government is actively discouraging assimilation among migrants living in the U.S., pointing to government-produced Spanish-language textbooks distributed to American school districts.

The Maritime Drug Law Enforcement Act Authorizes the Sinking of Drug Boats

January 23, 2026/in Communism, Criminal Illegal Aliens, Culture War, Elections, Hot Topics, Immigration, Narco-Socialism, Narco-Terrorism, National Security, News, Policy, Politics, Regulation, Socialism, Terrorism, Violence, Waste, Fraud and Abuse/by Conservative Commandos Radio Show and AUN-TV

Even Chuck Schumer voted “Yes” for the Maritime Drug Law Enforcement Act of 1986 authorizing the military to fire on drug smuggling boats. The House approved it 392-16 and Senate approved it 97-2.

The Maritime Drug Law Enforcement Act (MDLEA), implemented in 1986 by the United States, is a piece of legislation combatting the illegal drug trade. The MDLEA establishes that it is illegal for anyone on board a vessel belonging to the United States or within their jurisdiction to deliberately produce or disseminate psychotropic substances. The Act is notable for its extraterritorial jurisdiction and its lack of nexus requirement.

The Act provides that the United States jurisdiction reaches any vessel “registered in a foreign nation where the flag nation has consented or waived objection to the enforcement of the United States law by the United States.”[1] In recent years the MDLEA has been met with controversy as it permits the military the authority to reach and imprison drug traffickers or stop them by any means who are operating over international waters and foreign citizens who are not located on board the watercraft but operating overseas or as a conspirator.

German Chancellor Admits Europe ‘Wasted Incredible Potential’ By Bureaucracy, Over-Regulation

January 23, 2026/in Economy, Featured, Hot Topics, Marxism, News, Policy, Politics, Regulation, Social Issues, Socialism, Taxes, Waste, Fraud and Abuse/by The Daily Caller

German Chancellor Freidrich Merz told the World Economic Forum (WEF) that Germany and the European Union (EU) have “wasted incredible potential” during his speech Thursday.

Merz, a member of the center-right Christian Democratic Union (CDU), said the EU has wasted its potential for growth by curtailing freedom and responsibility.

“Both Germany and Europe have wasted incredible potential for growth in recent years by dragging feet on reforms and unnecessarily and excessively curtailing entrepreneurial freedoms and personal responsibility,” the Chancellor stated in his remarks to the WEF in Davos, Switzerland. “We are going to change that now.”

“We must reduce bureaucracy substantially in Europe,” Merz continued. “The single market was once created to form the most competitive economic area in the world. Instead, we have become the world champion of over-regulation. That has to end.”

German Chancellor Merz admits:

“Security and predictability take precedence over excessive regulation and misplaced perfection,” he added.

Merz also stated in his speech that Europe “is not at the mercy” of what he described as a “new world order.”

“The old world order is unraveling at breathtaking pace. We have entered an era where only power counts, a dangerous place,” the chancellor said, according to multiple outlets. “We [Europe] do not have to accept this new reality as fate.”

Merz recently admitted the country’s shutdown of nuclear power plants was a “serious strategic mistake” in a speech to the German Chamber of Industry.

The chancellor said in November 2025 that he would “begin discussing repatriation of Syrians in Germany,” after previously refusing to work with a right-wing party advocating for the policy.

THE NEW GAZA: “Let’s just plan for catastrophic success.”

January 23, 2026/in Anti-Semitism, Culture War, Elections, Featured, Hot Topics, News, Policy, Politics, Social Issues/by Beverly Newman, Ed. D.

Highlights of Jared Kushner Unveils ‘Master Plan’ for Redeveloping Gaza:

“Technocratic apolitical committee”
“Gaza has amazing potential.”
“This is for the people of Gaza.”
“Let’s just plan for catastrophic success.”
“We do not have a Plan B.”
“100% full employment … an opportunity for everybody there”
“Keep faith. Invest in the people.”
“Just calm down. The war is over.”
“Let’s just clam down. Turn a new chapter.”
“We’ve made several impossible things happen.”

Jared Kushner unveils $25 billion plan to transform Gaza into economic hub by 2035

The Board of Peace estimates that more than $25 billion will be needed to develop modern utilities and public services.

US special envoy Jared Kushner presented a detailed blueprint for the reconstruction and economic transformation of the Gaza Strip in Davos, Switzerland, on Thursday. The multiphase master plan is intended to turn the enclave into a regional economic hub by 2035.

The proposal was introduced during the signing of US President Donald Trump’s Board of Peace charter.

The initiative sets ambitious targets for the next decade. It aims to raise Gaza’s GDP to more than $10 billion and increase average annual household income to over $13,000.

What is the Trump administration’s master plan for Gaza?

The plan is structured around a six-phase development timeline that begins in the south and advances northward.

Phase 1 focuses on Rafah and Khan Yunis. Phase 2 involves expanding Khan Yunis. Phase 3 targets development in the central refugee camps. Phase 4 centers on the reconstruction of Gaza City.

A major section of the coastline has been designated for coastal tourism, with plans to construct 180 mixed-use towers.

The interior of the Gaza Strip is zoned for residential neighborhoods and industrial zones covering more than 25 square kilometers. They are intended to accommodate data centers and advanced manufacturing facilities.

The infrastructure proposal includes a new port and airport, a trilateral crossing at Rafah, a freight rail line with a logistics corridor, and a network of ring and main roads to connect Gaza’s urban centers.

The Board of Peace estimates that more than $25b. will be needed to develop modern utilities and public services.
To support the new economy, $1.5b. has been allocated for vocational training and retraining programs.

The goal is to create more than 500,000 new jobs in the construction, agriculture, manufacturing, and digital sectors.

An additional $3b. investment fund is designated for commercial zones, business districts, and microgrants intended to stimulate local entrepreneurship.

President Trump Orders Return of Insane Asylums, Mental Institutions to Get the Severely Ill Off the Streets

January 23, 2026/in Elections, Healthcare, Hot Topics, Must Read, News, Policy, Politics, Social Issues/by The Geller Report

President Trump: ‘Signed an executive order to bring back mental institutions and insane asylums. We are going to have to bring them back. Hate to build those suckers but you’ve got to get the people off the streets’

Donald J. Trump said he has signed an executive order to restore mental institutions and psychiatric asylums, arguing that reopening them is necessary to remove severely mentally ill individuals from the streets, protect public safety, and address homelessness—adding bluntly that while rebuilding them won’t be easy, “you’ve got to get the people off the streets.”

As The President talked about signing an executive order, Trump waxed nostalgic as he told a story of walking to Little League practice with his mother, reminding reporters he was “quite the baseball player.” Asking his mother on bars over windows on a psychiatric hospital in Queens, which he said “loomed over the block,” Trump says she told him that “very sick” people lived there.

Donald J. Trump issued a sweeping executive order aimed at restoring public safety by confronting homelessness through enforcement, treatment, and accountability rather than permissive disorder. The order identifies rampant drug addiction and untreated mental illness as the primary drivers of street homelessness and authorizes expanded use of civil commitment to move dangerous or incapable individuals into long-term institutional care. It directs federal agencies to prioritize grants for states and cities that enforce bans on open drug use, camping, squatting, and loitering; strengthen action against repeat offenders and homeless sex offenders; and remove encampments where public safety is at risk. The order rejects “housing first” and taxpayer-funded drug consumption sites, redirects funds toward evidence-based treatment, drug courts, and mental health courts, and tightens oversight of homelessness programs—cutting off funding to groups that tolerate illegal drug use or endanger women and children. The overarching goal is explicit: end crime and disorder on America’s streets by restoring enforcement, mandating treatment, and reasserting public order—without surrendering cities to chaos under the guise of compassion.

Here is the whole Executive Order:

ENDING CRIME AND DISORDER ON AMERICA’S STREETS

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered:

Section 1. Purpose and Policy. Endemic vagrancy, disorderly behavior, sudden confrontations, and violent attacks have made our cities unsafe. The number of individuals living on the streets in the United States on a single night during the last year of the previous administration — 274,224 — was the highest ever recorded. The overwhelming majority of these individuals are addicted to drugs, have a mental health condition, or both. Nearly two-thirds of homeless individuals report having regularly used hard drugs like methamphetamines, cocaine, or opioids in their lifetimes. An equally large share of homeless individuals reported suffering from mental health conditions. The Federal Government and the States have spent tens of billions of dollars on failed programs that address homelessness but not its root causes, leaving other citizens vulnerable to public safety threats.

Shifting homeless individuals into long-term institutional settings for humane treatment through the appropriate use of civil commitment will restore public order. Surrendering our cities and citizens to disorder and fear is neither compassionate to the homeless nor other citizens. My Administration will take a new approach focused on protecting public safety.

Sec. 2. Restoring Civil Commitment. (a) The Attorney General, in consultation with the Secretary of Health and Human Services, shall take appropriate action to:

(i) seek, in appropriate cases, the reversal of Federal or State judicial precedents and the termination of consent decrees that impede the United States’ policy of encouraging civil commitment of individuals with mental illness who pose risks to themselves or the public or are living on the streets and cannot care for themselves in appropriate facilities for appropriate periods of time; and

(ii) provide assistance to State and local governments, through technical guidance, grants, or other legally available means, for the identification, adoption, and implementation of maximally flexible civil commitment, institutional treatment, and “step-down” treatment standards that allow for the appropriate commitment and treatment of individuals with mental illness who pose a danger to others or are living on the streets and cannot care for themselves.

Sec. 3. Fighting Vagrancy on America’s Streets. (a) The Attorney General, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, and the Secretary of Transportation shall take immediate steps to assess their discretionary grant programs and determine whether priority for those grants may be given to grantees in States and municipalities that actively meet the below criteria, to the maximum extent permitted by law:

(i) enforce prohibitions on open illicit drug use;

(ii) enforce prohibitions on urban camping and loitering;

(iii) enforce prohibitions on urban squatting;

(iv) enforce, and where necessary, adopt, standards that address individuals who are a danger to themselves or others and suffer from serious mental illness or substance use disorder, or who are living on the streets and cannot care for themselves, through assisted outpatient treatment or by moving them into treatment centers or other appropriate facilities via civil commitment or other available means, to the maximum extent permitted by law; or

(v) substantially implement and comply with, to the extent required, the registration and notification obligations of the Sex Offender Registry and Notification Act, particularly in the case of registered sex offenders with no fixed address, including by adequately mapping and checking the location of homeless sex offenders.

(b) The Attorney General shall:

(i) ensure that homeless individuals arrested for Federal crimes are evaluated, consistent with 18 U.S.C. 4248, to determine whether they are sexually dangerous persons and certified accordingly for civil commitment;

(ii) take all necessary steps to ensure the availability of funds under the Emergency Federal Law Enforcement Assistance program to support, as consistent with 34 U.S.C. 50101 et seq., encampment removal efforts in areas for which public safety is at risk and State and local resources are inadequate;

(iii) assess Federal resources to determine whether they may be directed toward ensuring, to the extent permitted by law, that detainees with serious mental illness are not released into the public because of a lack of forensic bed capacity at appropriate local, State, and Federal jails or hospitals; and

(iv) enhance requirements that prisons and residential reentry centers that are under the authority of the Attorney General or receive funding from the Attorney General require in-custody housing release plans and, to the maximum extent practicable, require individuals to comply.

Sec. 4. Redirecting Federal Resources Toward Effective Methods of Addressing Homelessness. (a) The Secretary of Health and Human Services shall take appropriate action to:

(i) ensure that discretionary grants issued by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration for substance use disorder prevention, treatment, and recovery fund evidence-based programs and do not fund programs that fail to achieve adequate outcomes, including so-called “harm reduction” or “safe consumption” efforts that only facilitate illegal drug use and its attendant harm;

(ii) provide technical assistance to assisted outpatient treatment programs for individuals with serious mental illness or addiction during and after the civil commitment process focused on shifting such individuals off of the streets and public programs and into private housing and support networks; and

(iii) ensure that Federal funds for Federally Qualified Health Centers and Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics reduce rather than promote homelessness by supporting, to the maximum extent permitted by law, comprehensive services for individuals with serious mental illness and substance use disorder, including crisis intervention services.

(b) The Attorney General shall prioritize available funding to support the expansion of drug courts and mental health courts for individuals for which such diversion serves public safety.

Sec. 5. Increasing Accountability and Safety in America’s Homelessness Programs. (a) The Secretary of Health and Human Services and the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development shall take appropriate actions to increase accountability in their provision of, and grants awarded for, homelessness assistance and transitional living programs. These actions shall include, to the extent permitted by law, ending support for “housing first” policies that deprioritize accountability and fail to promote treatment, recovery, and self-sufficiency; increasing competition among grantees through broadening the applicant pool; and holding grantees to higher standards of effectiveness in reducing homelessness and increasing public safety.

(b) The Secretary of Housing and Urban Development shall, as appropriate, take steps to require recipients of Federal housing and homelessness assistance to increase requirements that persons participating in the recipients’ programs who suffer from substance use disorder or serious mental illness use substance abuse treatment or mental health services as a condition of participation.

(c) With respect to recipients of Federal housing and homelessness assistance that operate drug injection sites or “safe consumption sites,” knowingly distribute drug paraphernalia, or permit the use or distribution of illicit drugs on property under their control:

(i) the Attorney General shall review whether such recipients are in violation of Federal law, including 21 U.S.C. 856, and bring civil or criminal actions in appropriate cases; and

(ii) the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, in coordination with the Attorney General, shall review whether such recipients are in violation of the terms of the programs pursuant to which they receive Federal housing and homelessness assistance and freeze their assistance as appropriate.

(d) The Secretary of Housing and Urban Development shall take appropriate measures and revise regulations as necessary to allow, where permissible under applicable law, federally funded programs to exclusively house women and children and to stop sex offenders who receive homelessness assistance through such programs from being housed with unrelated children.

WATCH LIVE: President Trump Addresses Davos

January 22, 2026/in America 250, Budget and Finance, Climate Change, Courts & Law, Culture War, Economy, Elections, Featured, Hot Topics, Immigration, News, Policy, Politics, Social Issues, Tariffs, Taxes, Technology/by The Geller Report

He’s killing it. President Trump is addressing the World Economic Forum, the exclusive annual gathering of world leaders, policymakers and business figures in Davos, Switzerland.

WATCH: President Trump Delivers a Special Address to the World Economic Forum

CBS: The crowd of world leaders, business executives and others in Davos remained silent during the beginning of Mr. Trump’s address to the World Economic Forum, without clapping, as he described his transformation of the U.S. federal government and relations with Europe.

Trump took the stage at Davos, addressing, “so many friends, a few enemies,” he said.

“It’s a who’s who, I will say that,” he said.

Mr. Trump spoke in a measured tone as he described the “miracle taking place,” touting a long list of what he framed as his administration’s economic successes.

Economy:

“The United States is in the midst of the fastest and most dramatic economic turnaround in country’s history.”

Mr. Trump began his speech by touting the completion of his first year in office, and a “booming” economy. He noted stock market highs, economic growth and strong 401(k) growth.

“People are doing very well, they’re very happy with me,” he said.

Core inflation last 3 months: 1.6%

Q4 GDP projected: +5.4%

Trump: “Far greater than anyone other than myself predicted.”

Trump on the burgeoning US economy in Davos ‘Instead of hiring bureaucrats we’re firing them”

In 12 months, the Trump administration has removed 270K+ bureaucrats from the payroll, cut federal spending by $100B, slashed the federal budget deficit by 27%, cut 129 regulations for every ONE new regulation approved, passed the largest tax cuts in history, and so much more.

Tariffs:

Live blogging highlights:

“The USA is the economic engine of the planet, and when America booms, the entire world booms.

History shows that when America goes bad, the whole world goes bad.

When we go down, you follow us down. When we go up, you follow us up”

“I ended eight wars … and without trade and tariffs you wouldn’t have been able to end any of them … But they’ve brought hundreds of billions of dollars pouring into the United States Treasury…”

On Europe:

“Frankly, many parts of our world are being destroyed and the leaders don’t even UNDERSTAND what’s happening! And the ones that DO understand won’t do

“Certain places in Europe are not even recognizable anymore. And that’s not in a positive way. That’s in a very negative way. And I love Europe, and I want to see Europe go good. But it’s not heading in the right direction.”

Mr. Trump said he wanted to discuss in Davos, “how we want to raise living standards for our citizens,” and how European countries could emulate the U.S., because “certain places in Europe are not even recognizable.”

“I don’t want to insult anybody, and I say I don’t recognize it, and that’s not in a positive way. That’s in a very negative way. And I love Europe and I want to see Europe do good, but it’s not heading in the right direction.”

Mr. Trump said many Western governments had turned their back on, “everything that makes nations rich and powerful and strong.”

“Quite frankly, many parts of our world are being destroyed before our very eyes, and the leaders don’t even understand what’s happening, and the ones that do understand aren’t doing anything about it.”

On Crytpo:

“I’m also working to ensure America remains the Crypto Capital of the World… Congress is working very hard on Crypto market structure legislation, which I hope to sign very soon, unlocking new pathways for Americans to reach financial freedom.”

On windmills:

President Trump calld out the “stupid people” who support wind energy in Davos

“China is smart. They make windmills, sell ’em for a fortune, and sell ’em to the STUPID PEOPLE that buy them!”

Trump said, China builds them, sells them but they don’t use them. They don’t use windmill energy.

“Windmills all over Europe, all over the place, and they are LOSERS. One thing I’ve learned: the more windmills a country has, the more money that country LOSES. CHINA makes almost all the windmills, and yet I haven’t been able to find any wind farms in China!”

“The greatest HOAX in history, the Green New Scam. Windmills, destroy your land! Every time that goes around you lose $1,000. You’re supposed to MAKE money with energy, not LOSE money!”

Trump lauds his tariffs and says Venezuela will do “fantastically well”

Trump says his tariffs have enabled U.S. to “radically reduce our ballooning trade deficit”

The president touted his administration’s trade agreements with other countries, including European nations, Japan and South Korea, and said they “raise growth and cause stock markets to boom, not only in the U.S., but in virtually every country that came to make a deal. Because as you’ve learned, when the United States goes up, you follow.”

He said Venezuela has “got problems, but we’re helping them,” claiming that after the U.S. operation to capture former Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro, Venezuela will “be making more money than they’ve made in a long time. Venezuela is going to do fantastically well.”

“The attack ended and they said: ‘let’s make a deal,” Mr. Trump said.

Greenland:

Greenland is a vast, almost entirely uninhabited and undeveloped territory. It is sitting undefended in a key strategic location between the U.S., Russia, and China.

This enormous unsecured island is actually part of North America — on the northern frontier of the Western Hemisphere.

It is a core national security interest of the U.S. — and in fact, has been our policy for hundreds of years to prevent outside threats from entering our hemisphere.

Donald J. Trump said that no country—and no alliance of countries—has the capacity to defend Greenland except the United States, arguing that the island’s security is inseparable from America’s own.

Speaking to a crowd, Trump opened with a light moment—joking about whether he should address Greenland—before turning serious. He said he holds “tremendous respect” for the people of Greenland and Denmark, but stressed that every NATO ally must be capable of defending its territory, something Greenland cannot do on its own.

Trump warned that the world is far more dangerous than it was in the past, citing advanced missile systems, nuclear threats, and emerging weapons “I can’t even talk about,” and argued that Greenland’s vulnerability makes it a strategic liability.

He rejected claims that U.S. interest in Greenland is about rare earth minerals, insisting instead that geography and security are decisive. Greenland, he said, is “an enormous, unsecured island” on the northern frontier of the Western Hemisphere—effectively part of North America—and therefore falls within America’s strategic responsibility.

“This isn’t about resources,” Trump made clear. “It’s about security.”

“This would not be a threat to NATO – this would greatly enhance the security of the entire alliance.”

“You need the ownership to defend it,” the president said. “You can’t defend it on a lease. Number one, legally it’s not defensible in that way, totally. And psychologically, who the hell wants to defend a license agreement or a lease?”

“All we want from Denmark for national and international security and to keep our very energetic and dangerous potential enemies at bay is this land on which we’re going to build the greatest golden dome ever built,” he said, referring to his plans for a missile defense system.

He then lashed out at Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, saying the U.S. would use ownership of Greenland to defend the neighboring country.

“Canada gets a lot of freebies from us, by the way. They should be grateful, but they’re not. I watched your prime minister yesterday. He wasn’t so grateful.”

Trump to Carney: “Canada lives because of us. Mark, remember that before you make those speeches.”

NATO:

President Trump says the US gives “so much” to NATO and gets “so little” in return.

Trump has said the US annexation of Greenland would “greatly enhance the security” of NATO.

He said the US was “treated very unfairly by NATO”.

“We give so much and we get so little in return,” he said.

Trump says NATO has never given America anything and now he’s calling in the debt.

“The problem with NATO is that we’ll be there for them, 100%, but I’m not sure they’ll be there for us,” Mr. Trump said. “They’re not there for us on Iceland [Greenland],” the president said, “I can tell you, our stock market took the first dip yesterday because of Iceland [Greenland].”

Mr. Trump said the U.S. had “never asked for anything else” apart from Greenland.

“You can say yes and we’ll be very appreciative, or you can say no and we will remember. A strong and secure America means a strong NATO, and that’s one reason why I’m working every day to ensure our military is very powerful, our borders are very strong, and above all our economy is strong, because national security requires economic security and economic prosperity.”

On credit card interest rates:

“The profit margin for credit card companies now exceeds 50%, and they charge Americans interest rates of 28%… So, to help our citizens recover from the Biden disaster… I’m asking Congress to cap credit card interest rates at 10% for one year.”

BREAKING: Ringleader of Anti-ICE Church Invasion Arrested

January 22, 2026/in Communism, Courts & Law, Culture War, Elections, Hot Topics, Immigration, Marxism, Must Read, News, Policy, Politics, Social Issues, Socialism, Terrorism, Violence, Waste, Fraud and Abuse/by The Daily Signal

Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Thursday that law enforcement had arrested Nekima Levy Armstrong, a leader of the agitators who invaded a church service in St. Paul, Minnesota, on Sunday.

“Minutes ago at my direction [Homeland Security Investigations] and [FBI] agents executed an arrest in Minnesota,” Bondi posted on X Thursday morning.

“So far, we have arrested Nekima Levy Armstrong, who allegedly played a key role in organizing the coordinated attack on Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota,” she added. “We will share more updates as they become available.”

The Daily Signal depends on the support of readers like you. Donate now

“Listen loud and clear: WE DO NOT TOLERATE ATTACKS ON PLACES OF WORSHIP,” the attorney general wrote.

Shortly afterward, Bondi posted that Chauntyll Louisa Allen had also been arrested. “More to come,” she added.

Allen is a member of the St. Paul school board and leader of Black Lives Matter Twin Cities, as TMZ reported in an interview with her. She is also running for a city council seat, according to her school board candidacy website.

Between 30 and 40 anti-ICE agitators interrupted a Sunday service at Cities Church, a non-denominational Christian church in St. Paul, and shouted, “Justice for Renee Good!” as they surrounded members of the congregation.

Videos of the incident show the pastor and others repeatedly asking the agitators to leave, and the agitators chanting, “Who shut this down? We shut this down!”

The Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division is investigating the incident for potential violations of the FACE Act, Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon announced Sunday. She also mentioned prosecution under the Ku Klux Klan Act.

Armstrong, leader of the Racial Justice Network and a former president of the Minneapolis chapter of the NAACP, told Democracy Now that she does not regret helping to lead the protest.

“We are unapologetic about going into the church,” Armstrong said. She called it a “conflict of interest” for a pastor to oversee “the brutal conduct of ICE agents.”

When asked about the prospect of facing charges, Armstrong called it “hypocrisy” that the Justice Department would investigate the agitators but not the ICE agent who shot Good. She also faulted President Donald Trump for enabling ICE to arrest illegal aliens inside churches with a warrant.

This is a breaking news story and will be updated.

Reflections on the Anniversary of “Roe v. Wade”

January 22, 2026/in Abortion, Commentary, Courts & Law, Healthcare, Hot Topics, News, Policy, Politics, Regulation, Religion, Social Issues, Waste, Fraud and Abuse/by Jerry Newcombe, D. Min.

A recent historian said that a line from the Declaration of Independence is the most important sentence in history. Well, certainly that sentence is exceedingly important, but I agree with those who counter-argue, “No, actually John 3:16 is the most important sentence in history.”

Meanwhile, the great statement in the Declaration is: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal and are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” The Creator has bestowed upon us the right to life, but how can you square that right to live with the supposed right to abortion?

I write this piece around the anniversary of the January 22, 1973, Supreme Court decision of Roe v. Wade and its companion decision of the same day, Doe v. Bolton. These two decisions combined gave us abortion on demand even up to the moment of birth. And about 65 million abortions have taken place since that day.

Although Roe was overturned in 2022 by the Dobbs v. Jackson, the fallout from Roe continues. It’s like a phantom limb syndrome, where one is feeling a missing limb as if it’s still attached.

Abortion is the Holy Grail to the Amerian left. It dominates virtually all other considerations. Roe v. Wade has been tantamount to Scripture to some on the left.

But, lo and behold, it was all based on lies.

One of the main lies was that an abortion was needed for “Jane Roe” (whom we later learned was Norma McCorvey) because she was supposedly gang-raped. But that was not true. She had just been impregnated by her boyfriend.

McCorvey just wanted an abortion, and her attorney falsely promised to help her get one, knowing full well it could not happen in time (since cases that go up to the Supreme Court take a while to adjudicate).

Another lie is that the baby in the womb is a blob of tissue or clump of cells—but not a human being, deserving of legal protection. The heart starts beating at 22 days after conception, arm and leg buds appear by 28 days, and brain waves can be recorded by 40 days. Some blob.

Yet another lie to sell abortion was the number of women who supposedly died in America because of illegal abortions. Abortionist Bernard Nathanson told the media that each year about 10,000 women died from illegal abortions.

And yet a willing media reported this statistic as if it were gospel truth. I’ve read that in 1972, the last year before Roe, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) in Atlanta had reported that 39 women in America had died from illegal abortions. That may be 39 too many, but it’s a far cry from 10,000.

Thankfully, both Norma McCorvey and Bernard Nathanson became pro-life Christians and came to strongly oppose abortion.

We are also grateful that Roe was overturned in the 2022 case of Dobbs v. Jackson, but there is still widespread support for abortion, among many Americans—even among some professing Christians.

But God says He opposes the shedding of innocent blood. And our nation’s founders said that God has given us the right to life.

America has recently celebrated Martin Luther King day. And I’m grateful that his niece, Dr. Alveda King, is outspoken in her pro-life views.

I’ve interviewed Alveda King a few times for Christian media, and she told us: “In 1966, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was one of the first recipients of the Margaret Sanger Award. Margaret Sanger is the founder of Planned Parenthood, and they are the largest abortion providers in America. So, people say, ‘Oh wow, Dr. King supported Planned Parenthood.’ Actually, he did not.”

Alveda explains why not: “If you read Dr. King’s statements or if you knew him as I did, Dr. King said, ‘The negro cannot win if he’s willing to sacrifice the futures of his children for immediate personal comfort and safety.’ In 1966, abortion was illegal in absolutely every state….If anybody had said that same organization will be at the forefront of the abortions or deaths of over 50 million babies, then Dr. King would have said, ‘No thank you.’ Dr. King was a pro-life, gentle person.”

Alveda added: “It’s unjust to kill a little person because they’re little. A woman has a right to choose what she does with her body, but where is a lawyer for the baby? How can the dream survive, if we murder the children?”

On this anniversary of Roe v. Wade, we’re thankful for the progress made in the right-to-life movement. But we also see we have much ground to cover in America to see a resurgence of valuing the right to life, at all stages of development.

Does Antifa offer the perfect cover for Jihad?

January 22, 2026/in Anti-Semitism, Assassination attempt, Culture War, Elections, Hot Topics, Immigration, Marxism, National Security, News, Policy, Politics, Radical Islamic Terrorism, Social Issues, Socialism, Terrorism, Violence, Waste, Fraud and Abuse/by Amil Imani

If we pay attention, we see that Antifa has adopted the ways of the Islamic jihadist, resorting to intimidation tactics and violence.

Within the ocean of rising humanity composed of some 1.5 billion Muslims, each believer—a drop—through a combination of choice and forces beyond his control, ends up in one of its many waves. It is the jihadist wave that is highly attractive to the deeply indoctrinated and poorly-adjusted in dealing rationally and independently with life. And it is the violent verses of Islam that concern American law enforcement.

While American people go about their daily business, Muslims and Muslim organizations across the United States are busy and work “stealthily” to change and alter America from within in what is called “Soft Jihad,” or “Cultural Jihad where the sword of jihad is not advisable, where Muslims are not powerful enough to unsheath their sword.

They have been active in several ways. The number of non-Muslims who are converting to Islam is rapidly growing. In the U.S., the majority of converts are African-American but there have also been significant numbers of others who convert as well, many of them well-educated. Muslims in non-Muslim lands proselytize relentlessly and convert others, while any Muslim who leaves Islam is considered an apostate and automatically condemned to death.

America has been going through a process called subversion. Regrettably, not many Americans have the slightest clue that this takes place daily here at home. Muslims have become calculatingly meek and mild in their demeanor. They have learned how the American system works. For now, they are not openly resorting to violent jihad although we know Islam cannot be separated from its most powerful tool, Jihad. Without Jihad, Islam would go through a slow death. Jihad is perpetual in Islam. They both need each other for their survival.

Here is the disturbing question: What if this violent domestic group, known as Antifa, offers perfect cover for jihad and secretly works with the Islamic organizations as an arm of violent jihad?

According to Diana West, “here is more on Antifa/jihad connections from Edward Klein’s book, All Out War: The Plot to Destroy Trump. Note that in Portland, they were chanting, “Allah-u Akbar, smash these Nazi scums.”

President Trump, in the wake of the recent violent rioting, involving Antifa, the militant wing of the Democrat Party, suggested designating this group asa domestic terrorist.

Gary LaFree shed more light on this group in an op-ed: Is Antifa a Terrorist Group?

On numerous occasions, Antifa has openly threatened to massacre American patriots and even President Trump. This group is one of Obama’s legacies, created to inflict more pain on the American people. “Eight years of Obama’s leadership have left America demonstrably weaker and more divided. Rather than the promised “healing”—racial and other—the Obama era frayed the ties that bind us.”

Katie Pavlich also agrees with the President. She said: Antifa Should Be Designated a ‘Domestic Terrorist Organization.”

There are antifascists, and then there is Antifa. In any case, we have had a few years to objectively evaluate their modus operandi. How they work and operate. They were mostly reactionary, not proactive. But that could change as the group grows. Antifa despises America, our flag, and what it stands for. They appear out of nowhere at any peaceful conservative gathering and disrupt it.

If we closely pay attention, we realize that Antifa has adopted the ways of the Islamic jihadist and resorts to intimidation tactics and violence. They call anyone and everyone a Nazi.

“For as long as there have been fascists, there has been debate over the way to respond to them.” In his new book, Antifa, historian and organizer Mark Bray traces various leftist anti-fascist movements from the 1930s in Europe to the “Antifa” movements we see on the streets today. The history of anti-fascism, it seems, is stuck on repeat, with the same arguments over free speech and uncompromising resistance cropping up repeatedly.”

According to the Washington Examiner: “while we’re not investigating Antifa as Antifa – that’s an ideology, and we don’t investigate ideologies – we are investigating several what we would call anarchist-extremist investigations where we have properly predicated subjects of people who are motivated to commit violent criminal activity on kind of an Antifa ideology.”

“President Obama allowed Occupy Wall Street and Black Lives Matter to run wild during his reign. Obama even rewarded riot-inciters, and those who support killing police were hosting them at Obama’s White House. Instead of protecting citizens and their property, some politicians even admit pro-rioting policies openly, as when then-Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake (D), at the time a DNC executive, acknowledged in 2015 that authorities “gave those who wished to destroy space to do that.

In short, Antifa appears to be just as violent as the jihadists, as we see in the USA riots, and might offer the perfect cover for jihad.

Beware of Islam’s “Useful Idiots”

January 22, 2026/in Commentary, Criminal Illegal Aliens, Culture War, Elections, Hot Topics, Immigration, Iranian influence, News, Policy, Politics, Radical Islamic Terrorism, Social Issues, Terrorism, Violence, Waste, Fraud and Abuse/by Amil Imani

Muslims believe that all non-Muslims, bar none, are hellfire-bound and well-deserve being maltreated compared to believers. They themselves will surely be the first to go if Islam succeeds, but the rest of us will be next.

Islam enjoys a large and influential ally among non-Muslims: A new generation of “Useful Idiots,” the term that Lenin originated for those living in liberal democracies who furthered the work of communism.

This new generation of Useful Idiots also lives in liberal democracies, but serves the cause of Islamofascism—another virulent form of totalitarian ideology.

Useful Idiots are naïve, they are foolish, they are ignorant of facts, they are unrealistically idealistic, they are dreamers, and often they are willfully in denial or deceptive. They hail from the ranks of the chronically unhappy. They are anarchists, they are aspiring revolutionaries, they are neurotics who are at war with life, the disaffected alienated from government, corporations, and just about any and all institutions of society.

The Useful Idiot can be a billionaire, a movie star, an academe of renown, a politician, or someone from any other segment of the population. Arguably, the most dangerous variant of the Useful Idiot is the “Politically Correct.” He is the master practitioner of euphemism, hedging, doubletalk, and outright deception.

The Useful Idiot derives satisfaction from being anti-establishment. He finds perverse gratification in aiding the forces that aim to dismantle an existing order, whatever it may be: an order he neither approves of nor feels he belongs to.

The Useful Idiot is conflicted and dishonest. He fails to look inside himself and discover the causes of his own problems and unhappiness, while he readily enlists himself in causes that validate his distorted perception.

Understandably, it is easier to blame others and the outside world than to examine oneself with an eye to self-discovery and self-improvement. Furthermore, criticizing and complaining—liberal practices of the Useful Idiot—require little talent and energy. The Useful Idiot is a great armchair philosopher and “Monday Morning Quarterback.”

The Useful Idiot is not the same as a person who honestly has a different point of view. A society without honest and open differences of views is a dead society. Critical, different, and fresh ideas are the lifeblood of a living society—the very anathema of autocracies where the official position is sacrosanct.

Even a “normal” person spends a great deal more energy aiming to fix things out there than working to overcome his own flaws and shortcomings, or contribute positively to the larger society. People don’t like to take stock of what they are doing or not doing that is responsible for the conditions that they disapprove.

But the Useful Idiot takes things much farther. The Useful Idiot, among other things, is a master practitioner of scapegoating. He assigns blame to others while absolving himself of responsibility, has a long handy list of candidates for blaming anything and everything, and by living a distorted life, he contributes to the ills of society.

The Useful Idiot may even engage in willful misinformation and deception when it suits him. Terms such as “Political Islam” or “Radical Islam,” for instance, are contributions of the Useful Idiot. These terms do not even exist in the native parlance of Islam, simply because they are redundant.

Islam, by its very nature and according to its charter—the Quran—is a radical political movement. It is the Useful Idiot who sanitizes Islam and misguides the populace by saying that the “real Islam” constitutes the main body of the religion, and that this main body is non-political and moderate.

Regrettably, a large segment of the population goes along with these nonsensical euphemisms depicting Islam because it prefers to believe them. It is less threatening to believe that only a hijacked small segment of Islam is radical or politically driven and that the main body of Islam is indeed moderate and non-political.

But Islam is political to the core. In Islam, the mosque and State are the same—the mosque is the State. This arrangement goes back to the days of Muhammad himself. Islam is also radical in the extreme. Even the “moderate” Islam is radical in its beliefs as well as its deeds. Muslims believe that all non-Muslims, bar none, are hellfire-bound and well-deserve being maltreated compared to believers.

No radical,l barbaric act of depravity is unthinkable for Muslims in dealing with others. They have destroyed precious statues of Buddha, leveled sacred monuments of other religions, and bulldozed the cemeteries of non-Muslims—a few examples of their utter extreme contempt toward others.

Muslims are radical even in their intrafaith dealings. Various sects and sub-sects pronounce other sects and sub-sects as heretics worthy of death; women are treated as chattel, deprived of many rights; hands are chopped for stealing even a loaf of bread; sexual violation is punished by stoning, and much, much more. These are standard day-to-day ways of the mainstream “moderate” Muslims living under the stone-age laws of Sharia.

The “moderate” mainstream of Islam has been outright genocidal from inception. Their own historians record that Ali, the first imam of the Shiite and the son-in-law of Muhammad, with the help of another man, beheaded 700 Jewish men in the presence of the Prophet himself. The Prophet of Allah and his disciples took the murdered men’s women and children into slavery. Muslims have been, and continue to be, the most vicious and shameless practitioners of slavery. The slave trade, even today, is a thriving business in some Islamic lands where wealthy, perverted sheiks purchase children of the poor from traffickers for their sadistic gratification.

Muslims are taught deception and lying in the Quran itself—something that Muhammad practiced during his life whenever he found it expedient. Successive Islamic rulers and leaders have done the same.

Khomeini, the founder of the 1979 Iranian Revolution, for instance, rallied the people under the banner of democracy. All along, his support for democracy was not a commitment of an honest man, but a ruse.

As soon as he gathered the reins of power, Khomeini went after the Useful Idiots of his time with vengeance. These best children of Iran, having been thoroughly deceived and used by the crafty phony populist-religionist, had to flee the country to avoid the fate of tens of thousands who were imprisoned or executed by the double-crossing imam.

Almost three decades after the tragic Islamic Revolution of 1979, the suffocating rule of Islam casts its death-bearing pall over Iranians. A proud people with an enviable heritage is being systematically purged of its sense of identity and forced to think and behave like the barbaric and intolerant Muslims.

Iranians who had always treated women with equality, for instance, have seen them reduced by the stone-age clergy to a sub-human status in Islamic teaching. Any attempt by the women of Iran to counter the misogynist rule of Muhammad’s mullahs is mercilessly suppressed. Women are beaten, imprisoned, raped, and killed just as men are slaughtered without due process or mercy.

The lesson is clear. Beware of the Useful Idiots who live in liberal democracies. Knowingly or unknowingly, they serve as the greatest volunteer and effective soldiers of Islam. They pave the way for the advancement of Islam, and they will assuredly be among the very first victims of Islam as soon as it assumes power.

Reza Pahlavi is Iran’s Only Way Forward

January 22, 2026/in Anti-Semitism, Commentary, Culture War, Hot Topics, Iranian influence, News, Policy, Politics, Radical Islamic Terrorism, Social Issues, Socialism, Terrorism, Violence, Waste, Fraud and Abuse/by Amil Imani

For forty-seven years, a shadow has stretched across the Plateau, a shadow cast by a regime that traded the brilliance of a thousand-year civilization for the darkness of a medieval theocracy. The air in Iran today is thick, not with the smog of industry, but with the heavy, stifling scent of a dying era. As the currency collapses and the cries of “Woman, Life, Freedom” echo from the Alborz mountains to the shores of the Persian Gulf, a singular truth has emerged from the chaos: the time for half-measures is over. Iran does not need a “reform” of its chains; it needs a breaking of them. And in this terminal hour, Reza Pahlavi stands not merely as a figure of history, but as the only bridge to a future.

For the Iranian diaspora — scattered from Los Angeles to London, Paris to Sydney – the struggle has often been one of fractured identities and competing ideologies. Yet, as the Islamic Republic’s brutality reaches a fever pitch, the Crown Prince has emerged as the sole unifying force capable of binding these disparate pieces together. He is the only leader with the name recognition, the diplomatic weight, and the ancestral mandate to command the world’s attention.

In the United States, where the largest population of exiled Iranians resides, Pahlavi is more than a political figure; he is a symbol of what was lost and what can be reclaimed. He represents the “Real Iran” — a nation that was once a stabilizing force in the Middle East, a reliable partner to the West, and a beacon of modernization. His message to the diaspora is clear: the exile is nearing its end.

The regime in Tehran survives on fear — fear of the “other,” fear of the West, and most importantly, fear of a power vacuum. They tell the people that without the mullahs, there is only Syria-style chaos. Reza Pahlavi is the living refutation of that lie. His 100-day transition plan and his consistent advocacy for a secular, democratic referendum offer a roadmap where others offer only rhetoric.

While other opposition groups are often riven by internal disputes or tainted by past associations with the current regime, Pahlavi has spent decades cultivating a vision of inclusivity. He does not demand a throne; he demands a ballot box. He has reached out to ethnic minorities, to the secular left, and even to the disillusioned rank-and-file of the military, offering a path of national reconciliation. This is the “Cyrus Accords” vision — a return to a Great Civilization where every Iranian, regardless of faith or ethnicity, has a stake in the soil.

His recent message to Ali Khamenei was not just a speech; it was a verdict. By labeling the Supreme Leader an “anti-Iranian criminal” and invoking the memory of the Nuremberg trials, Pahlavi signaled that the window for “dialogue” has slammed shut. This is the language of the final battle. He is telling the killers of Iran’s children that there is no cave deep enough to hide from the coming justice of the Iranian people.

“You, your regime, and all your mercenaries will answer for every drop of blood you have spilled… Your end is disgrace, eternal shame.” — Reza Pahlavi

Why is he the only alternative? Because history is a cruel judge of timing. Iran is currently facing an existential trifecta: an economic freefall where the Rial is worth less than the paper it is printed on, an environmental catastrophe of drying lakes and dying lands, and a regime that is increasingly willing to drag the nation into a regional war to ensure its own survival.

We do not have the luxury of another decade of “waiting for the right leader to emerge.” The leader is here. He has been the steady hand in the background for forty years, waiting for the nation to wake up. Now that the nation is risen, he is the only one who can translate that “conscious rage” into a functioning state.

To the international community, especially the United States, the choice is binary. You can continue to chase the ghost of a nuclear deal with a regime that hangs protesters from cranes, or you can stand with the man who promises a nuclear-free, peace-loving Iran that recognizes Israel and normalizes relations with the world.

The sorrow of losing Iran’s finest children — the Mahsas, the Kians, the spent lives of three generations – is a weight that can only be lifted by victory. This is not just a political shift; it is a national exorcism. Reza Pahlavi represents the unbreakable will of a people who refuse to be erased from history.

The regime is cracking. The mercenaries are looking for exits. The streets of Tehran are waiting for the return of their dignity. We are closer than ever. This is the last word. This is the last chance. For the sake of the blood spilled and the dreams deferred: Long Live Iran.

Is it better to identify as Democratic, Republican, or Jewish?

Our Sages could have been talking about today’s abandonment of Jews and principles to gain the Muslim vote when they wrote: “Be cautious with the government, for they only bring a person close to them for their own needs.”

Political engagement can be a double-edged sword for Jews. On the one hand, it can result in personal and communal empowerment; but on the other, it can lead to the false conflation of ancestral values with non-Jewish ideologies that are incompatible with Torah, and which prompt the erosion of Jewish identity. The tension is especially problematic in the US, where antisemitism, support for Israel, and now Christian nationalism have become trigger issues in different ways for Democrats and Republicans.

For their part, today’s Democrats count among their ranks progressives who hate Israel, embrace Hamas, and spread antisemitic conspiracy theories. As a result, only a third of their party support Israel – an all-time low. In contrast, most Republicans (eighty-three percent) identify as pro-Israel, though some also espouse Christian nationalist views and refuse to distance themselves from those on the “woke right” who traffic in antisemitic stereotypes. Thus, while the party has had a strong record of supporting Israel and denouncing antisemitism since at least the 1990s, Jewish conservatives are uneasy about the reluctance or unwillingness of some to chastise fellow travelers who peddle anti-Israel and antisemitic rhetoric disguised as political speech.

Though more Jews than ever before seem to be voting Republican because of concern for Israel and anxiety over antisemitism in the mainstream, they would do well to remember that most Democrats also used to support Israel and oppose the kind of bigotry now expressed by progressive radicals who influence their party’s domestic and foreign policy agendas.

The takeaway from the Democrats’ moral devolution is that their past philosemitism was not based solely on historical justice or respect for Jewish values, but rather political and demographic considerations that made sense in Jewish voting hubs during and after the Cold War and yet changed over time.

As their party turned leftward, and as the left became increasingly antisemitic, the more they began to tolerate or embrace radicals, Islamists, and bigots – and the more hatred for Jews and Israel became socially acceptable.

It should be clear to anyone with historical perspective that party affiliation, whether Republican or Democratic, can never be seen as an a priori expression of Jewish identity and that neither party is intrinsically “Jewish.” There is nothing wrong with Jews endorsing political agendas that happen to align with their priorities – if they recognize that such alignment is often impermanent and subject to partisan unpredictability. This is something liberals often do not understand after generations of equating Jewish tradition with progressive values and affiliating Democratic as a putative expression of Jewishness. In fact, many still believe that registering Democrat is – politically speaking – the most Jewish thing they can do, despite the party’s leftward turn and embrace of ideologies and special interests that are hostile to Israel and in conflict with (or extraneous to) traditional Judaism and Torah law.

If anything, the facile embrace of anti-Zionism and Jew-hatred by progressive Democrats shows that radical ideology is not only inconsistent with Jewish values, but contrary to them. It also shows that secular political values and party affiliations are not synonymous with Jewish tradition and can neither reinforce nor sustain Jewish identity, regardless of the decades-long effort by Reform, Conservative, and Reconstructionist clergy to emphasize liberal political values over traditional text and rabbinics (a trend that may well correspond to rising Jewish illiteracy in the non-Orthodox world).

In contrast, Jewish conservatives tend to be guided by traditional core values, e.g., support for Israel, opposition to antisemitism, and respect for Jewish religious, cultural, and moral autonomy, in exercising their voting preferences. Though they may agree with Republicans on fundamental matters of policy, they generally do not believe Jewish identity is synonymous with the Republican Party – only that their interests and priorities converge at this moment in time.

Still, given the Jews’ immigrant experience in America, it is logical to see how over the years many absorbed external political values (both individually and collectively) and how they came to identify as Democrats.

When Jews immigrated to America in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to escape pogroms and persecution in Russia and elsewhere, many found employment in urban sweatshops where working conditions were poor and employee protections nonexistent. As a result, many joined unions and became enmeshed in the American labor movement. It thus seemed natural to gravitate towards the party they identified with labor; and as many abandoned traditional observance and standards of piety, they sought out ideological substitutes – often political – to fill the resulting spiritual void. Indeed, many embraced Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s “New Deal” with religious-like fervor – though they remained willfully blind to FDR’s patrician antisemitism, indifference to Jewish suffering, and refusal to aid or rescue Jews during the Holocaust.

It was during this period that many acculturated Jews came to view the Democratic Party as a spiritual destination, though it was their abdication of traditional Torah values that facilitated the unfounded belief that certain political ideologies were innately Jewish or mystically transcendent. As voting members of society, Jews are free to support whatever causes their consciences dictate. However, they cannot claim Jewish tradition demands support for platforms that contravene Jewish law. Though many nontraditional rabbis today use their pulpits to promote trans issues, for example, there is no halakha that approves or permits surgical or chemical alteration of the human body in the name of “gender affirming care.”

Moreover, the endorsement of radical policies by secular Jews does not make them consistent with traditional Jewish norms, which ultimately derive from Torah, not politics or popular culture. In fact, no political agendas – whether liberal or conservative – are synonymous with Jewish tradition simply because Jews vote for them. Whereas Jewish voters can endorse or oppose any controversial topics upon which liberals and conservatives disagree (e.g., abortion or gun control), they cannot claim the imprimatur of tradition where Jewish law conflicts with those issues or takes no position on them.

Likewise, it cannot be claimed that the Republican Party or political conservativism are synonymous with Jewish identity, though there is a good deal of ideological overlap regarding support for Israel, respect for personal property rights, and the acknowledgement of historical antisemitism and need to combat it today.

Although the political right certainly has an odious regarding history with antisemitism, the left’s historical track record is no less shameful. Rising above their history, however, American conservatives have acknowledged their past culpability and have made thoughtful efforts to purge antisemitism from their ranks, as was eloquently demonstrated in 1992 by the late William F. Buckley in his pivotal work on the subject, “In Search of Anti-Semitism.” No comparable literary testament has been produced by anybody on the left, despite the exponential increase in progressive hatred for Jews, Judaism, and Israel in recent years.

Unlike progressives who ignore, excuse, or validate antisemitism on the left, Jewish conservatives remain vigilant and sensitive to its reemergence on the extreme right (both secular and Christian) and are closely monitoring the conservative mainstream’s response to those who harbor antisemitic and anti-Israel animosity. There is also growing discomfort among Jewish conservatives regarding the conflation of conservative principles with evangelical Christianity, the tenets of which are inconsistent with Jewish scripture, tradition, and values. Increasingly, many are disquieted by the seemingly expanded influence of right-wing Christian nationalists, those within Christian Zionism who support Israel in order to missionize Jews, and seemingly discordant voices in organizations like Turning Point USA.

Moreover, while conservatives and Republicans may have an affinity for traditional Jewish ideals at this moment in history, they are not governed by the same scriptural and doctrinal imperatives that inform Jewish political sensibilities.

At the end of the day, Jewish survival and continuity do not require us to (a) treat any secular political system or agenda as synonymous with Jewishness; (b) embrace a “Judeo-Christian” banner that implies commonality between fundamentally incompatible belief systems; or (c) proclaim common cause with those who support Israel as subterfuge to proselytize and advance phantom prophesies found nowhere in Tanakh. Rather, it requires steadfastness of heritage and faith. There is nothing wrong with Jews participating in politics or government, as long as they remember that their unique heritage, spiritual legacy, and history are neither functions of, nor secondary to, the secular political process.

Perhaps that’s what the Sages meant in Pirkei Avot, when they said: “Be cautious with the government, for they only bring a person close to them for their own needs. They appear as friends when it benefits them, but they do not stand by a person in his time of difficulty.” (Pirkei Avot, Chapter 2, Mishna 3.)
