From the department of inevitable consequences. Following the American exit from Afghanistan, China’s move to claim the country’s vast mineral wealth is centered on a mountain south of Kabul. The mountain and the barren surrounding valley, in Logar province, a two-hour drive from the capital, contain one of the world’s biggest untapped reserves of copper. China…

China. It’s the gift that keeps on taking. And then taking some more. More than 262,000 pounds of prohibited meat products have been seized from the Los Angeles/Long Beach seaport so far this year. 262,237 pounds of pork, chicken, beef and duck have been seized so far by agriculture specialists with U.S. Customs and Border…

I’m not sure that this is what the IRGC had in mind.  When President Trump took out Iran terror leader Qasem Soleimani, we were repeatedly told by Iran’s apologists in this country and by the Ayatollah’s terror state that revenge was coming.

As I noted back in January, “On January 3rd, two suicide drones were aimed at the State Department’s Baghdad Diplomatic Support Center near the Baghdad International Airport. Two more terror drones targeted American…

There’s a growing legion of horror stories about violent attacks by thugs with extensive criminal records who were let go after they were arrested. Here’s the latest and one of the more disgusting horror stories coming out of the pro-crime hellhole that politicians created in New York City. The sicko who allegedly smashed his own feces in…
