University debate: "The Blue Zones prove a plant-based diet is the key to longevity."
Vegan: "Five places on earth where people routinely reach 100. Okinawa, Sardinia, Ikaria, Nicoya, Loma Linda. The common thread is beans, greens, wholegrains and barely any meat. It's the strongest longevity evidence we have."
Anthropologist: "What else do the five have in common?"
Vegan: "Community. Purpose. Walking."
Anthropologist: "Terrible paperwork. Four of the five are remote islands or hill districts with poor birth records, and the fifth is a church. When a researcher went through the data, the places with the most centenarians were the places with the worst record-keeping and the most pension fraud."
Vegan: "That's a slur on old people."
Anthropologist: "In 2010 Japan went looking for its registered centenarians and couldn't find 230,000 of them. Some had been dead for decades with the family collecting the pension. Greece found about 9,000 pensioners over 100 who turned out to be in the cemetery. Okinawa's records were destroyed in the war and rewritten from memory."
Vegan: "Even so, the diet in those places..."
Anthropologist: "Say what it was."
Vegan: "Sweet potato, in Okinawa."
Anthropologist: "And pork. Every part of the pig, cooked in lard, the highest pork intake in Japan. The Okinawan word for a feast means 'pig'. Sardinia?"
Vegan: "Beans and bread."
Anthropologist: "Sheep. The Sardinian shepherds you're quoting live on pecorino, lamb and a glass of red. Ikaria is goat and goat's milk. Nicoya eats more eggs and pork than the rest of Costa Rica. Loma Linda is the one true vegetarian zone, and they also don't smoke, drink or divorce. Take the meat out of the other four and the sum doesn't move."
Vegan: "The man who wrote the book spent years there."
Anthropologist: "He sells the book. The researcher who checked the records got an Ig Nobel prize for it, which is what science gives you for pointing out the emperor's birth certificate is missing."
Vegan: "So you're saying nobody there is old."
Anthropologist: "I'm saying the oldest-looking data on earth tends to be in the places where nobody can check it, and when you do check, the diet turns out to be pig."
Vegan: "Then what's the real Blue Zone?"
Anthropologist: "Hong Kong. Longest life expectancy on the planet, immaculate records, and the highest meat consumption in Asia. It's not in the book because you can't sell beans with it."
Moderator: "Time."
Vegan: "I've been to Okinawa."
Anthropologist: "What did they serve you?"
Vegan: "..."
Anthropologist: "It's all right. Everyone says pork eventually."

The drone attack on St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region was once again carried out via a flight path through Estonia, as well as parts of Lithuania and Finland.
In an attempt to deflect responsibility, air raid alerts were declared within these countries, citing the "detection of unidentified aerial vehicles."
The drones were guided across NATO territory using the Starlink system. NATO has entered the war.
The consequences will be catastrophic for everyone.

That particular moment when Victoria Nuland, in 2016, was bragging to the US Congress about how thoroughly Washington had taken over Ukraine after the 2014 coup.
She spelled it all out without shame:
🔴US operatives embedded in a dozen Ukrainian ministries.
🔴American-trained cops patrolling 18 cities.
🔴The US Treasury gutting 60 Ukrainian banks while sparing depositors to keep people quiet.
🔴Hundreds of millions of dollars funneled into molding Ukraine’s military.
Let's cut all the crap,this wasn’t "assistance", it was a takeover dressed up as aid.
"Unprovoked"

The evidence of history suggests the modern climate agenda is designed to reshape human society, weaken sovereignty and consolidate centralised global control.
The foundational flaw of the climate narrative is the omission of context. We were told current temperatures and CO₂ levels were unprecedented, yet geological history tells the exact opposite story. For the past 34 million years - since the glaciation of Antarctica, and driven by tectonic shifts and changing ocean currents - Earth has been locked in the Late Cenozoic Ice Age.
These conditions intensified 2.58 million years ago into the Quaternary glaciation, characterised by long, brutal glacial periods interrupted by temporary, warmer interglacials, like the Holocene we live in today.
During the past 541 million years of exploding biological diversity (the Phanerozoic Eon) the global temperature has averaged 24°C, ranging from 18°C to 34°C peaks. This is fully 9°C warmer than today’s calculated average of 15°C. We are living in unusually 'cold times' and there is no likelihood of an urgent global warming or climate change facing human society.
The other nemesis comes in the form of CO₂, which is the foundation for photosynthesis, agriculture and the rise of complex life on Earth. Rather than suffering from an excess of CO₂, Earth has been experiencing a long-term carbon decline.
Prior to the industrial era, low CO₂ levels contributed to global aridity, the retreat of biomass and loss of ancient rainforests. An increase in atmospheric CO₂ represents an opportunity for life's biological resurgence, as a fertiliser that stimulates biological growth and expands the planet's agricultural produce.
The natural world has endured genuine, cataclysmic upheavals - but this is not one of them. The great extinction events of the past - such as the Carnian Pluvial Episode or the End-Permian extinction - played out over tens of thousands to millions of years. Yet the biological world survived, adapted and survived.
When the planet experienced sustained, greenhouse conditions, life didn't collapse - it flourished. During the Eocene Epoch 56 million years ago, palm trees grew in the Arctic, ice disappeared from the poles and lush rainforests and endless biology blanketed 85% of the Earth's landmass.
Far from a wasteland, the Eocene was a time of astonishing biological abundance of food and a massive radiation of mammalian life. The lessons of history show us that warmer conditions are not to be feared; they are catalysts for biological resilience and growth.
The brief fluctuations of past decades do not constitute a climate crisis; they are evidence of a temporary, microscopic blip in geological time.

The federal investigation into Ilhan Omar’s finances will find tens of millions of dollars in reported valuations suddenly vanishing, tax troubles with state tax collectors, and companies reportedly taking in a lot of money suddenly collapsing after overstating their business activity. Having covered corporate accounting frauds at the Wall Street Journal, IRS frauds, and the subprime mortgage fraud crisis, it’s an understatement to say something is seriously off.
In May 2025, Omar’s financial disclosures valued her husband Tim Mynett’s stake in Rose Lake Capital at $5M–$25M for calendar year 2024. It began operations in 2022.
She also disclosed in Congressional records the value of his stake in their winery eStCru at $1M–$5M. The winery launched in 2020.
But just a year earlier, she had reported the stake in Rose Lake Capital was worth only $1 to $1K, and eSTCru, $15K-$50K.
Then came a major reversal. Just this year, Omar amended her 2024 and 2025 disclosures on March 26, changing both businesses’ asset values from millions of dollars to
“None.” For 2024, Rose Lake income changed from “None” to $100,001–$1M; eStCru income changed from $5K–$15K to $2,501–$5K. For 2025, Rose Lake income changed to “None” and eSTCru income changed to $201–$1K.
So what was going on at the businesses that were supposedly worth as much as $30M just two years ago?
In November 2024, Rose Lake Inc.’s CEO, William Hailer, reportedly testified in a bankruptcy proceeding that the company had no money, assets or investments. Right as Omar's disclosure valued her husband's stake at up to $25M.
Rose Lake Capital listed its headquarters at 80 M Street SE, Washington, D.C., a WeWork coworking location. There was no visible Rose Lake signage or staff. There are no SEC records that either her husband, his partner, or their investment firm were registered with the SEC as investment advisers. Its website boasted “deep global networks in more than 80 countries” when its D.C. WeWork office shared space with a Walmart operation and the American Trucking Assn.
There was little to no public evidence of real business activity. No verifiable public track record of Rose Lake managing money for investors. No publicly disclosed clients, investment deals, or portfolios identified. Rose Lake’s public website removed the names and bios of its listed officers and advisers amid scrutiny.
Omar’s husband Tim Mynett and his partner had little to no Wall Street experience. They had co-founded a political consultancy, where he helped raise more than $100M for Democrats and worked on Omar’s 2019 re-election.
Her husband’s Rose Lake Inc. had to forfeit its registration in Delaware in 2024 for failing to pay the state a big $403K in back taxes, and for having no registration agent. This was right as Omar was claiming in her disclosures his stake was worth up to $25M from less than $1K a year before. How does a firm that is supposedly valued at that sum not able to pay its taxes?
And Washington, D.C. also had cancelled its registration for Rose Lake Capital LLC, too, for failure to pay reportedly just $1,770 in back taxes. Another inconsistency: the Delaware entity is Rose Lake Inc., but Omar discloses it as Rose Lake Capital LLC.
As for his winery where Omar suddenly valued his stake at $5M in 2024 up from $15K-50K just a year prior - there were wines marketed online, but no signs of a functioning winery facility, tasting room, or production operations at the supposed address.
An investor had sued Mynett and his partner alleging they promised to triple his investment in the winery to $900K from $300K, but failed to deliver returns. He claimed in his suit “there is no legitimate business there.” The dispute was reportedly settled in November 2024. eStCru was subsequently dissolved in California in April 2026. #news #News @IlhanMN @GOPoversight @OversightDems @DHSgov @IRS_CI #BreakingNews @AP @Reuters @EveningEdit @FoxBusiness @FoxNews @JudgeJeanine @CBSNews @ABC

America is uglier, dirtier, more fragmented, more addicted, less informed and less hopeful than it was a decade ago.
It is also richer, more powerful, and further ahead of other Western countries.
Both stories can be accurate at the same time.
There is nothing wrong with our economy or our military.
The problem is us. We are spiritually sick and socially fragmented, lacking in connection to our own history and culture or to a sense of a higher power and purpose.
There are no shortage of bad actors who are responsible, beginning with state-sponsored demoralization campaigns (China, Russia, Qatar) and the domestic elites on both the left and the right motivated by money, greed, power, and ego. There are the fragmenting effects of new technologies that overwhelmed our social immune systems. There are the social effects of immigration from regions of the world where the vast majority of people do not share our values or our culture. Our brains have become playgrounds for techno nihilists and foreign spy services.
Yet we are still the wealthiest and most powerful nation on the planet and the unique guardian of ideas of human freedom that are essential to our future as a species and produce cool stuff.
Unplug yourself from the demoralization machine, and learn how to think like an American again.

NEWS Finding serious problems at the DMV that’s behind the Reuters report revealing more than 30,000 illegal aliens registered to vote in 12 states since the year 2000. The DMV is blamed. Finding DMV glitches, clerical errors, software and policy errors that are very real and serious. 19 states and DC give illegal aliens drivers licenses, and the DMV in 18 of those states automatically register people to vote.
This matters greatly for who controls Congress and the White House. George W. Bush won the 2000 election versus Al Gore on just 537 votes in Florida. DHS already caught 256,463 illegal aliens registered to vote in California, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Nevada (last 2 are swing states).
The problem is, there is no single study that looked at all states combined to see how many illegal aliens are voting, and U.S. states are suing to block federal access—DOJ has sued 30 states.
Democrats cannot conclusively and legitimately say “illegal aliens are not voting.”
That’s a pretty confident conclusion from exactly zero studies. It appears Democrats are ruling it out based on the rigorous process of not researching it. That’s not a finding. That’s unverified topspin.
Media might want to ask their ulterior motive here of dismissing this serious election integrity problem. State workers have been caught not voluntarily doing the oversight on their own.
For example, in Oregon the problem wasn’t initially uncovered by Oregon election officials. An outside group, the Institute for Responsive Government, contacted the state in 2024 asking how its automatic voter-registration system was working. That inquiry helped prompt a DMV review that ultimately identified 1,948 undocumented migrants registered to vote.
The problems there included DMV employees who selected the wrong option from a computer drop-down menu, they reported they mistakenly (?) were coding foreign passports as a U.S. passports.
In New Jersey, a vendor software error transmitted about 6,600 illegals for voter registration even though they had answered “no” when asked whether they were U.S. citizens. 400 subsequently voted.
In Illinois in 2019, an automatic-voter-registration software glitch mistakenly entered about 545 noncitizens into the voter-registration system.
New York’s DMV automatic-voter-registration system recently went live, and the State Board of Elections acknowledged some initial technical “hiccups.” But New York has not publicly identified a comparable incident involving noncitizens being registered because of a DMV computer glitch. New York’s system requires applicants to affirm that they are U.S. citizens, and the DMV sends the application to the Board of Elections, which makes the registration decision. #breaking #news #BREAKING #BreakingNews @Reuters @ap @x @EveningEdit @FoxBusiness @FoxNews @CBSNews @ABC @NBCNews @WSJ @nytimes @GOPoversight @HomelandGOP @DHSgov @DNC @JudiciaryGOP @JudiciaryDems @NRSC @SenateGOP @SenateDems @HarmeetKDhillon @SecMullinDHS

Sixty-two years and $22 trillion later, the U.S. poverty rate sits at roughly 11 percent, almost identical to where Lyndon Johnson found it in 1964. The government ran the most expensive social experiment in human history and produced nothing measurable. Bureaucracies perpetuate themselves, and this policy worked exactly as designed.
When Washington transfers purchasing power to the poor through SNAP, Medicaid, housing vouchers, and 126 other overlapping programs, it doesn't eliminate scarcity; it relocates decision-making from individuals to administrators. Those administrators develop career interests in perpetuating dependency, because a solved problem eliminates their department.
Free market thinkers identified this perverse incentive structure before Johnson signed the Economic Opportunity Act. Every dollar taxed from productive activity carries a deadweight cost before it reaches anyone's dinner table.
Capital formation lifts people out of poverty. You build wealth through savings, property rights, and voluntary exchange, none of which $22 trillion in redistributed spending actually produced.

🚨 JOHN SOLOMON JUST HIT THE MOTHERLODE. 🚨
NSA intercepts from 2022 just DROPPED.
Ukrainian officials + Biden’s own USAID insiders in Kyiv were caught discussing a plan to take HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of YOUR tax dollars — money meant for “clean energy” — and launder 90% of it straight into Joe Biden’s 2024 campaign and the DNC.
Fake infrastructure projects. Layered U.S. subcontractors. Designed so no one could follow the money.
This wasn’t aid. This was a slush fund.
They built biolabs with stolen American money… then they tried to steal the election with the rest of it.
Tulsi Gabbard is now hunting the records. Criminal referrals are on the table.
The same people who called YOU a “threat to democracy” were running a foreign money-laundering operation against you.
Was the entire Ukraine war just the biggest Democrat money-laundering scheme in history?
Watch Solomon drop the receipts. Then share this like your country depends on it. 🇺🇸🔥

Crossing the border illegally is a federal crime via 8 USC 1325. 5 year statute of limitation for first time offense.
Overstaying a visa is a civil offense.
Being unlawfully present in the U.S. is a civil offense.
But none of these semantics matter, because any of the above can result in ICE detention.
There is no requirement under US law that an alien must have a criminal record before being detained by ICE. There never has been.
ICE also does not need a judicial warrant to make arrests. (Unless they’re entering private property like a home).
All they need is reasonable suspicion that an alien is unlawfully present in the country.
Bottom line, all aliens who violate US immigration law are subject to ICE arrest and detention. This is how the law has been for decades.
ICE has arrested more than half a million people since President Trump returned to office, and nearly 40 percent do not have a criminal record.
As of Aug. 6, ICE had detained more people without a criminal record this year than in all of 2025. wapo.st/45V4GP5

You want more women in power but you can’t tell me what a woman is. Oh okay.
You scream Black Lives Matter but black-on-black crime is “not the conversation.” Got it.
I can spend my life protecting kids until you hear I’m conservative. Then I’m the problem.
You call Trump a pedophile while grown men walk fully naked in front of children and that’s a parade. Make it make sense.
A dad who abandons his kids is a deadbeat but a mom who ends her baby’s life is “healthcare.” Odd.

I hate white supremacy.
I also hate being told I’m not allowed to notice the rest.
The media wrote the script. A lot of you aren’t ready for that conversation. That’s the mic.
We are not far behind this in the US. 60+ percent of the Democrats in this country thought it was a great idea to put unvaccinated citizens in camps.
I left Canada when most of the population voted in liberals multiple times. When I got yelled at for getting in an elevator without a mask. When I wasn’t allowed to go buy groceries without a vaccine card. When my neighbors called the police on us for inviting family over. After I got harassed by a homeless man on the subway with my 2 year old and nobody stepped in. After areas in downtown Toronto (where I lived) were taken over by tents and addicts. After I was told there was a 2 year waiting list for an ankle replacement when I couldn’t walk. After I had to find a surgeon out of country. After I’d spent days waiting in emergency for subpar “health care”.
It’s not just the government. It’s the people in Canada too. And no, not all of them, but in Toronto? In Quebec? A lot of them. And it’s getting worse not better.
I miss Canada. I miss old Canada. I miss old Toronto pre-2016. But it wasn’t just the government that wrecked it. It was the entitled, naive people living there that brought it on.
I feel terrible for Canadians (especially Albertans) that can’t pick up and leave but I’m sure as hell not going back until it doesn’t feel like a 3rd world country full of people who hate people like me.
