Leftist CNN anchor Jake Tapper was blasted online as “an NPC programmed to lie” after he falsely identified the accused D.C. pipe-bomber Brian Cole Jr. as “a white man.” “Brian Cole Jr., a 30-year-old white man from the D.C. suburbs, is charged with transporting an explosive device in interstate commerce and…
Starmer’s current chief of staff, Morgan McSweeney, served as the head of a machine that targeted media outlets on the left and right, foreshadowing the UK’s crackdown on dissent. From our vantage point looking across the pond at the United Kingdom, it truly does seem like the country decided…
Russia wouldn’t just lose tens of billions of dollars’ worth of yearly revenue if the US’ plans succeed, but tensions with Turkiye might become unmanageable if the complex energy interdependence that tied them together till now is broken, which could destabilize the South Caucasus and Central Asia.
