Death rates among young Americans have surged dramatically, with the mortality rate for adults aged 25 to 44 jumping 71.2% between 2010 and 2021, the largest increase of any age group.  This rise is driven by a combination of external causes, such as drug overdose, and early-onset diseases.

Drug overdoses are the leading cause of death for young adults and have multiplied sevenfold since 1999.  Suicides have risen more than 40% since 2000.  Homicides increased 75.5% between 2014 and 2021 and vehicle accidents rose 43.5% during the same period.

Deaths from diabetes, hypertensive disease and alcoholic liver disease have also spiked sharply.  Deaths from alcohol-related mental health disorders more than tripled between 2010 and 2023.

Violent Muslims and leftists wreaked havoc across France on Friday, setting fire to everything they could, including people. Many of the protesters were African and Arab students. Riot police clashed with teenagers in several French cities as roughly 400 high schools were closed. At last count, almost 2,000 people had been arrested as the government blamed leftists for the upheaval.

In Strasbourg, police deployed tear gas. Protesters launched fireworks toward police lines in Marseille, and in Rennes, garbage bins were set on fire. Clashes also broke out in Paris, according to Reuters. Le Monde reports that anywhere between 200,000 and 300,000 protesters, including students, teachers, and public-sector workers, protested across France’s main cities on Tuesday, demanding solutions to the loss of purchasing power and more resources in addition to the pre-existing demands of the students.

The violence started a week ago. Hundreds of students were arrested as school blockades and clashes spread across the country on Thursday, according to Fox News. Hundreds of schools have been burned down, as well as vehicles and churches set on fire.

French security officials have reportedly identified individuals and vandals who are not related to schools who have incited violence during the protests, described by witnesses as “hooded, dressed all in black,” and with their faces concealed by masks. Sounds like Antifa. Many others look like communists.

“The students’ grievances about missing teachers and deteriorating schools were real at first,” Rodan-Benzaquen claimed. “But dousing a principal in gasoline and attacking firefighters are acts of extreme violence. What makes this politically significant is the effort to turn frustration over schools into a much broader confrontation with the government.”

The far-left cable network that spent years treating President Trump like a criminal defendant just woke up under new corporate ownership.

Paramount on Tuesday completed its acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery, creating a combined company that will operate simply as Skydance, according to the New York Post. The combined enterprise, now standing as a corporate giant valued at nearly $111 billion, including debt, officially brings CNN, CBS, HBO, Warner Bros., and HGTV under one single corporate umbrella. And the left-wing fake news industrial complex is completely losing its mind.

The Ellison family, led by billionaire tech mogul Larry Ellison, a prominent conservative donor and stalwart supporter of President Donald J. Trump, holds full voting power alongside RedBird Capital.

Now, for the first time in modern political history, the absolute heart of the far-left propaganda machine, CNN, is under the ownership and voting control of individuals aligned with the conservative movement!

...Biden-appointed U.S. District Judge Araceli Martínez-Olguín issued a temporary restraining order.... The price of peace includes an editorial-independence board over CNN and CBS News, continued operation of the studio lots, and other conditions.  Mark Thompson stays on as CNN’s chief. Bari Weiss is set to lead CBS News. So nobody should pretend the 9 a.m. CNN chyron just flipped to a Trump rally. 

Still, the mood inside the building already told the story. Last month, insiders told Variety the mood at CNN was “like a funeral”...

Upwards of 500 schools across France remained partially or completely closed on Monday as the nation braces for a new, potentially violent wave of so-called student protests this week.

Per AFP, Education Minister Édouard Geffray detailed on Sunday that the shuttered schools do not presently meet the safety conditions that can warrant their reopening after a series of violent protests incited by far-left groups plunged France into total chaos last week.

Geffray reportedly detailed on Sunday some 24 schools across France were either set on fire or ransacked during the violent protests. At least 78 members of the French Ministry of National Education were injured.

The ongoing student protests began on September 17. At the time, students allegedly protested in a peaceful manner calling for better conditions and resources for French schools.

However, the protests rapidly turned violent last week, leading to the uncontrolled violence that engulfed Paris and numerous other French cities, leading to hundreds of reported acts of arson, vandalism, assaults against law enforcement and civilians, and blockades of school facilities.

Britain is reopening a refugee resettlement program and is reportedly planning to give priority to Palestinians and Afghan women and girls, The Guardian has reported, creating a controlled legal route into the country as the government simultaneously tightens rules for people arriving through irregular channels.

About one-quarter of those admitted through the reopened program are expected to be Palestinians or Afghan women and girls, according to government projections.

The home of Andrew Jones, the founder of Noah’s Ark Scans, was ransacked on Saturday as research on the boat-shaped Durupınar formation near Mount Ararat in Turkey continues.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Noah’s Ark Scans, the group leading an expedition into the origins of the Durupınar formation, believed to house Noah’s Ark of the Bible, has received permits from the government of Turkey to explore the site and conduct a deep-core drilling survey.

Jones recently announced a major discovery in the expedition when the team “struck a layer so hard that the drill bit broke,” challenging the long-standing belief held by geologists that the formation was caused by a natural landslide or limestone block. Third-party lab testing for mineralized or petrified wood, which could indicate that a wooden ark has been buried for thousands of years.

“I believe this is Noah’s Ark, that’s why I’m putting the Durupinar site through the most rigorous testing possible,” Jones said.

Now, Jones is facing threats on his life and apparent attempts to destroy his research on the biblical site.

Lauren Witzke, the President of Noah's Ark Scans, announced on Saturday that Jones's apartment was "ransacked and burglarized" after he fled his apartment from individuals repeatedly threatening to kill him in the middle of the night.

"We’ve already said this expedition has come under attacks that are borderline demonic. But we still didn’t think they’d go this far," Witzke wrote on X. "They stole his laptops, his computers, his memory cards , basically anything they thought he might have stored the Noah’s Ark evidence on," she said, noting that it was a targeted robbery and "they specifically knew what they were there for."

Witzke noted, however, that copies of everything were made and stored on memory cards, and "none of the data was lost." 

This doesn’t look like a local job. The villagers around the site have been good to us. They benefit from the tourism Noah’s Ark brings and the man screaming threats through the door was speaking English.

President Trump’s $100,000 fee on new H-1B petitions has effectively ended the program as a route for new foreign workers. According to the White House’s proclamation, employers paid the fee for only about 700 workers in the year after it took effect, and consular processing requests fell nearly 97 percent.

State Department data show that H-1B visa issuances fell 74 percent between February 2025 and February 2026, while visas for H-1B spouses and children fell 81 percent. On September 18, Trump extended the fee through September 2027. A federal judge had already ruled the fee an unconstitutional tax, and the First Circuit refused to reinstate it while the government appeals.

Despite liberals’ claims, employers do not hire H-1B workers because Americans cannot do the jobs. They hire them because they can pay less.

Liberals claim to want to help minorities, yet Black workers are among those most affected by wage suppression in lower-paying jobs.

Now, New York authorities have arrested two men from Queens who are believed to be the suspects who were spotted emerging from the manhole.

On Friday, the NYPD arrested Samuel Reveron, 25, and Kevin Rodriguez, 26, on two counts of trespassing.

They “both described in sum and substance that they entered the manhole together to look for valuables that get washed away in the storm drains and sewers,” authorities said.

In recent months, various reports have emerged of people coming out of manholes across New York City.

From our trusted source in South Korea

For decades, South Korea has been a trusted US ally depending on US might to secure its democratic future.

But that respect for America is not what it used to be as the current government cozies up more and more with the Chi-coms.  ...the new government is openly attacking US President Donald Trump.

This won’t end well for Korea. Why would they expect the US to come to their aid during an emergency when they openly slander our president?

The United States maintains approximately 28,500 troops in South Korea and remains South Korea’s principal military ally.

The incident became public after the training materials were obtained from the Ministry of National Defense and disclosed in South Korea.

Now material denouncing Trump has appeared inside an official Army training program for 1,600 new soldiers — at the very moment South Korean and American forces were training together as allies.

The immediate question is how political material targeting the sitting U.S. president was allowed into an official South Korean Army training program in the first place.

The University of Pennsylvania’s Annenberg Public Policy Center recently conducted a survey that found 35% of Americans can’t name the three branches of government: executive, legislative, and judicial.

This is an amazing indictment of our education system, but it also raises questions about our national discourse.

For instance, virtually everyone has an opinion about politics, and many people these days seem to think that they are experts in the topic. How is that possible when a third of Americans lack basic civics knowledge?
