After decades of clashes, Trump secures Armenia–Azerbaijan peace deal

By Zach Jewell | Daily Wire "… today's great achievement is yet another testimony to your global leadership and your legacy as a statesman and a peacemaker on the world stage." President Donald Trump oversaw the signing of a peace agreement between Armenia and Azerbaijan on Friday, securing a deal that was unsuccessfully sought by the European Union, Russia, and the Biden administration. Trump met with Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev privately in the Oval Office before they all appeared for a press conference and signed the peace declaration. “The countries of Armenia and Azerbaijan are committing to stop all fighting forever, open up commerce, travel, and diplomatic relations and respect each other’s sovereignty and territori...

Walcher: Breaking China’s grip on rare earth minerals begins with real mining at home

By Greg Walcher | Commentary, GregWalcher.com Energy Secretary Chris Wright went to Wyoming last week to cut the ribbon on the first new rare earth mine in the U.S. since the 1950s. Telling the assembled guests and reporters that the “Brook Mine” is critical to breaking China’s “stranglehold on rare earth processing,” he hinted that it might be the first of several. It should be. A few years ago, I visited Arizona Congressman Paul Gosar and when discussing the need for domestic production of vital minerals, he picked up a dark brown rock from the Mojave Desert, explaining that it was mostly composed of a “rare earth” element. He said millions of such rocks littered the desert in his district, yet the United States imported 100 percent of the mineral it contains. That situation has no...

800% spike in ICE attacks blamed on ‘radical left’ by agency director

BY BRADLEY DEVLIN | THE DAILY SIGNAL https://youtu.be/61QbHhHtVY0?feature=shared This article is a preview of Politics Editor Bradley Devlin’s interview with acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement Director Todd Lyons on “The Signal Sitdown.” Watch the full episode on YouTube by clicking on the video above. Two months ago, violent riots broke out in America’s second-largest city after immigration enforcement officers served legal warrants, signed by a judge, to individuals in this country illegally.  The rioters, which the media assured you were “mostly peaceful,” laid siege to federal buildings, attacked law enforcement officers, lit cop cars on fire, and looted businesses for days—all while flying the flag of a foreign country. Of course, we’re talking about the Los...

Russia hoax was the strategy: Clinton greenlit Trump smear to deflect from her email scandal during 2016 run

By Shaina Cole | Contributing Writer, Rocky Mountain Voice Newly declassified documents and insider testimony has started to change how people view the whole Trump–Russia narrative. At the heart of it all is a 2017 intelligence report that claimed Vladimir Putin meddled in the 2016 election to help Donald Trump win.  For years, it was treated as fact. But now, that conclusion is being questioned both by former officials and documents that never saw daylight until recently. Among the most telling pieces of evidence are internal emails suggesting Hillary Clinton signed off on a plan to push the Russia angle, not because it was true, but to take heat off her own email troubles. That Intelligence Community Assessment, or ICA, released just two weeks before Trump’s inauguration, s...

DEVINE: Democrats Brace as Russiagate Cover-Up Unravels in Public View

By Miranda Devine | Commentary, New York Post Despite the best efforts of Russiagate-complicit media to dismiss as “Russian disinformation” the latest revelations in this escalating scandal implicating President Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton in the treasonous “years-long coup” against President Trump, the public is paying attention and wants heads to roll. According to a Rasmussen poll released Monday, nearly two-thirds of voters (65%) are following declassified releases over the past month by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) “very closely” (32%) or “somewhat closely” (33%), repudiating the calculated media silence about the Obama administration’s fake narratives and manipulation of intelligence to frame Trump as a Kremlin ...

Biden and Obama Tied to Clinton Plan to Fabricate Trump Russia Narrative

By Jerry Dunleavy and John Solomon | Just the News Then-Vice President Joe Biden was the first major Democrat in summer 2016 to publicly try to link Donald Trump to Vladimir Putin after U.S. intelligence intercepted a purported plan by Hillary Clinton's campaign to vilify Trump by falsely linking him to a Russian plot. The timing of Biden's Russia attacks against Trump in July 2016 was striking to U.S. intelligence because it and other events matched predictions in the intercepted evidence from Russian spy agencies, which had claimed to have gained access to the Clinton campaign strategy, officials told Just the News. Biden would become the public face of an effort to attack Trump by linking him to Putin starting in late July 2016 — just as the Democratic National Convention forma...

Clapper allies tried to strong-arm DIA analyst into signing off on fake Trump–Russia report

By Margot Cleveland | The Federalist ‘You need to TRUST ME on this,’ Clapper’s crony told the analyst, saying he ‘would need to demonstrate [his] ability to “outgrow”’ the refusal to sign off on assessments he did not concur with. A crony of then-Director of National Intelligence (DNI) James Clapper threatened to withhold a promotion from a senior intelligence official unless he concurred in the fake Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) on Russia’s meddling in the 2016 election, notes obtained exclusively by The Federalist show. The notes made public for the first time today recount a conversation the top analyst in the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) had with an unnamed superior who worked closely with the then-Director James Clapper, according to source...

Garbo: Treason in Plain Sight—Obama’s Coup and the Democratic Betrayal of America

By C. J. Garbo | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice If Tulsi Gabbard’s revelations don’t make your blood boil, you haven’t been paying attention. The coordinated deception revealed by the Director of National Intelligence is not just a scandal – it is a full-blown betrayal of the American people, engineered at the highest levels of our government. This wasn’t carelessness. It was deliberate. And it wasn’t just dirty politics. It was treason. President Barack Obama knew the truth. His top officials - James Clapper, John Brennan, Susan Rice - knew the truth. The intelligence community found no legitimate evidence that Donald Trump colluded with Russia. But that didn’t stop them. Instead, they manufactured a lie, inflated a hoax, and fed it to a willing and corrupt media to unleash ...

Franz: Climate hawks are facing extinction—realism is taking flight

By Danielle Franz | Real Clear Energy Once perched atop the climate movement’s moral high ground, the self-anointed “climate hawks” are now watching their influence dwindle, and nowhere is that retreat more visible than in California. Long the epicenter of progressive climate ambition, the Golden State is now backpedaling. Democrats who once championed aggressive environmental mandates are hitting pause, reworking regulations, and distancing themselves from policies that have driven up energy and housing costs. A post-2024 reality check has swept the party: climate may still poll well in theory, but not when it collides with affordability. This shift isn’t isolated. It’s emblematic of the climate hawks’ broader failure — a movement that moralized, catastrophized, and sacrificed w...

CIA and Obama Briefed on Russian Claim Clinton Was Drugged During Campaign

By Brooke Singman | Fox News Russia allegedly had intelligence suggesting that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was taking "heavy tranquilizers," which former President Barack Obama and Democratic Party leaders found to be "extraordinarily alarming," a newly declassified intelligence report claims. Fox News Digital first reported that the U.S. intelligence community did not have any direct information that Russian President Vladimir Putin wanted to help elect Donald Trump during the 2016 election, but, at the "unusual" direction of then-President Obama, reportedly published "potentially biased" or "implausible" intelligence suggesting otherwise. The information came from a report declassified by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard. The report was prepared by t...
