Earlier this year, Front Page Magazine revealed that the UK was estimated to have more political prisoners than Cuba with speech interdictions totaling 1,000 arrests a month. Many of these arrests involve speech critical of the presence of Muslims in the UK including the mass arrests of anyone revealing that, contrary to the government’s denials, a Muslim terrorist had stabbed 3 little girls to death. Now it’s been learned that the British government ran a scheme to smuggle thousands of Afghans into the UK and banned reporters from speaking about it. Over the last several years, UK governments secretly brought in over 35,000 Afghans at a cost estimated to be as high as $9 billion. The ‘operation’ went on even though the UK’s Ministry of Defence estimated that at least 1 in 10 of the smuggled Afghans would be homeless. But what happened next was even more shocking. After a data breach leaked information about the operation, the British government, claiming that it was trying to protec...

Rep. Adriano Espaillat’s claim to fame (apart from spending nearly 30 years in politics) was being the first former illegal alien or as his press releases state, the “only formerly undocumented immigrant to serve in the U.S. House of Representatives”. While being an illegal alien seems like a strange thing for an elected official to brag about, in the current political atmosphere where illegal aliens occupy a rarified space in Democratic Party politics somewhere between They/Thems and Hamas terrorists, being an illegal is an asset. Espaillat’s badge of honor or dishonor ended when Rep. Robert Garcia, the former mayor of Long Beach, became the first gay former illegal alien in Congress, and being a gay former illegal alien comes with more identity politics points than just being a former illegal alien. Rep. Adriano Espaillat (pictured above) had more problems than that because his claim to illegal alien fame was debatable even before Garcia. 2016 was a big year for former illegal alien...

 In New York State, Jews have the highest favorable opinion of President Trump. Jews support Trump more than any other religious group, more than Catholics and Protestants, upstate voters, and more than white voters in general. Jews are the only identity group in the state with whom Trump isn’t underwater even at the same time as Sen. Schumer polls worse among Jews than among Catholics or Protestants. (So when Trump taunts Schumer as a ‘Palestinian’, he knows what he’s doing.) At 61%, Jews provide the highest rate of approval for Trump’s deportation of migrants compared to 42% among Protestants, 49% among Catholics and 48% among white voters. Jews in New York have a total 57% approval rating for Trump in contrast to 38% among Protestants, 49% among Catholics and 47% among white voters, and the highest levels of support for Trump’s immigration, inflation, trade and conviction that Trump will make America great (51% Jews, 42% Catholics and 28% Protestants.) Unsurprisingly, 64% of New...

In Los Angeles, Mayor Karen Bass signed an ‘executive declaration’ ordering every municipal department to be in compliance with the “sanctuary city ordinance” and to create a “preparedness plan” to block federal immigration enforcement. She could have just called it a declaration of insurrection. California was already infamous for its sanctuary city status, but Gov. Newsom and local officials like Mayor Bass are doubling down on ordering government employees, including local law enforcement, to protect illegal alien criminals and to confront federal law enforcement. That can’t end well. “I will never accept these unlawful and chaotic raids,” the Long Angeles mayor vowed and promised to “deploy every resource and tool available within the city” to protect illegal aliens and stop federal law enforcement from enforcing immigration law. Her ‘executive declaration’ also requests the “Police Commission, in collaboration with the Chief of Police, to incorporate, where appropriate, the commu...

The first time Jeffrey Epstein was locked up, it was in a private wing of the Palm Beach Stockade with unlocked doors and a ‘work release program’ (even though sex offenders were barred from participating in work release programs) that allowed him to keep an office outside the prison, then ‘work’ from his beachfront home, hire Sheriff’s Deputies as his private security, have them refer to him as a “client” and all the records of his visitors, who reportedly included minors used for sex, were then destroyed as part of a “routine purge”. As an example of the justifications for his special treatment, a Palm Beach officer wrote that Epstein is “poorly versed in jail routine and society and his adjustment to incarceration will most likely be atypical. For the time being, I am authorizing that his cell door be left unlocked and he be given liberal access to the attorney room where a TV will be installed”. Both local and federal prosecutors threw the case against Epstein resulting in a light...

1 in 3 Americans feel lonely every week and 1 in 5 feel lonely every day. Less than half of households are headed by married couples and the marriage rate hovers at 16.7. 63% of single people are not looking for a relationship and the majority of Gen Z didn’t date as teenagers. Romance, relationships and sex that are disappearing, If you want to understand teenagers escaping into an upside down world of pronouns, identifying as the opposite sex, as asexual or anything except a normal healthy relationship, the collapse of those relationships is the place to start. “I choose me” is the narcissistic gateway to ‘self-marriages’ and online rabbit holes. But it’s not just opposite sex relationships that are collapsing. Family is on the chopping block. 1 in 4 Americans are estranged from a close family member. Gen Z is the generation least likely, by far, to have a close relationship with their grandparents. Or to socialize in general. People of all ages interact with the world through socia...

  Ask some Israelis about the war in Gaza and they can sound pessimistic. The war is a slog. It can’t keep on going. International critics complain that the war has no clear goalposts (beyond destroying Hamas) and is inherently unwinnable. What does victory even look like? There’s one metric that they seem to have overlooked. In 2023, 70% of ‘Palestinians’ thought that Hamas was going to win. Today, only 43% do. After the Oct 7 attacks, 72% of them thought that the Hamas attack was a good idea. Today only half still do. The number of those who admit it was a bad idea rose from 22% to 40%. In Gaza, 58% now acknowledge that Oct 7 was a mistake. And these numbers have been steadily and consistently dropping as the war goes on. Among the enemy population, victory is no longer an option and most hope for a ceasefire. 43% are willing to leave the Gaza Strip. 50%, a majority, are willing to ask Israel for help to leave. Less than half of those in Gaza are happy with how Hamas has fought...

Things are not happy in Monterey County. The California county, which Kamala won by 63%, is considered a ‘sanctuary’ for illegal aliens by the Department of Homeland Security. But that sanctuary status was recently violated and local officials are outraged. So is the Solidarity Network: a pro-illegal alien group that ‘monitors’ immigration enforcement arrests. Monterey County Board of Supervisors Chair Chris Lopez responded by announcing that a maternal health walk was cancelled. “Monterey County deeply values the contributions of our immigrant workers and families that strengthen our local communities and economy,” Monterey County Supervisor Luis Alejo posted. The Monterey Solidarity Network promised to fight. “A family man was taken from the street as he was taking his son to school,” the pro-illegal organization that had vowed to fight against President Trump’s immigration enforcement fumed. “How is ripping a man from his family, outside of his home, terrorizing his children, consid...
