Joe Kent Departure Follows Leak Allegations And Security Concerns During Tenure As Counterterrorism Director

By Jack Davis | The Western Journal The departure of Joe Kent, former director of the National Counterterrorism Center, means one less leaker in Washington, according to multiple reports. “I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby,” Kent wrote on X after splashing his resignation letter across social media. Rep. Don Bacon, a Republican from Nebraska, was quick to celebrate. “Good riddance. Iran has murdered more than a thousand Americans. Their EFP land mines were the deadliest in Iraq. Anti-Semitism is an evil I detest, and we surely don’t want it in our government,” he wrote on ...

Strategic Gains Mount for the United States and Israel As Iran Missile And Proxy Networks Falter

By Muhanad Seloom | Al Jazeera Every aspect of Iran’s ability to project regional power is being successfully degraded. Two weeks into Operation Epic Fury, the dominant narrative has settled into a comfortable groove: The United States and Israel stumbled into a war without a plan. Iran is retaliating across the region. Oil prices are surging, and the world is facing another Middle Eastern quagmire. US senators have called it a blunder. Cable news has tallied the crises. Commentators have warned of a long war. The chorus is loud and, in some respects, understandable. War is ugly, and this one has imposed real costs on millions of people across the Middle East, including the city I live in. But this narrative is wrong. Not because the costs are imaginary, but b...

From bill to emergency order: The election fight moves beyond Congress

By Jen Schumann | Rocky Mountain Voice Senate Republicans opened debate Tuesday on a bill they say will secure American elections. But inside that same fight, a second path is already taking shape—one that doesn’t run through Congress at all. While lawmakers argue over the SAVE America Act and whether it can survive a Senate filibuster, some election-integrity advocates are pushing something far more aggressive: a proposed emergency order that would allow a president to step in and change how federal elections are run. RMV obtained a copy of that proposal—and spoke with one of the men now advocating for it. What’s emerging is not just a policy disagreement. It’s a split in approach. Congress is trying to answer the question through legislation. Others are asking wh...

Intelligence Community Knew in 2020 China Had Access to Voter Data

By John Solomon and Jerry Dunleavy | Just the News Hidden from lawmakers, new evidence emerges that the Biden White House knew that China accessed voter registration data as far back as 2020. But as a vote comes up on election security laws, legislators have been kept in the dark. The United States expressed outrage when Great Britain revealed two years ago that its voter registration databases were hacked by China in what became a global scandal. But it turns out the U.S. intelligence harbored its own secret at the time, knowing since 2020 that Beijing also gained access to American voter registration data, according to documents reviewed by Just the News and interviews with officials with direct knowledge. “[Redacted] Chinese intellige...
George Markert is running for U.S. Senate. He’s already been in the room.

George Markert is running for U.S. Senate. He’s already been in the room.

By Jen Schumann | Rocky Mountain Voice Dinner one night back in 2018 was seafood and gator sausage, with family around the table. Before long the conversation landed where it usually does in the Markert family—service. George Markert was on official Marine Corps business at the time in Pensacola, Fla. Markert was leading a high-level investigation as a colonel. His uncle got word he was in Pensacola and insisted they get together before he left. The worn Constitution changed hands at the end of a family dinner in Pensacola. When Markert flipped it open, he saw a handwritten note. “The note read, ‘This was your grandfather’s, and he held it sacred,’” Markert said. “He did a tour in Washington, D.C. in the Navy back in the 1950s and used to take my dad and his three sibling...

Trump Administration Taps Global Oil Reserves And U.S. Production To Steady Markets

By: Anthony Iafrate | The Daily Signal THE DAILY CALLER NEWS FOUNDATION—Secretary of Energy Chris Wright stated during a “Meet The Press” interview Sunday that the U.S. is taking several actions—including increasing oil production in deep blue California—to mitigate rising fuel costs due to the conflict in Iran. After the military strikes of Operation Epic Fury began Feb. 28, Iran sought to block U.S. transport vessels from passing though the Strait of Hormuz, the waterway separating the country from the Gulf States through which an estimated 20% of the world’s oil demand usually flows. The reduction in shipping volume has led to the surge of oil prices in the following weeks. “We have done many, many act...

Palantir CEO Says AI Could Shift Economic Power Toward Working Class Voters

By Ben Kew | The Gateway Pundit Palantir CEO Alex Karp has said that artificial intelligence (AI) could shift economic influence away from highly educated voters who tend to support Democrats and toward vocationally trained, working-class men. In an interview with CNBC, Karp discussed the broader societal impact of artificial intelligence and how it is expected to transform employment. “This technology disrupts humanities-trained, largely Democratic voters, and makes their economic power less.” “And increases the economic power of vocationally trained, working-class, often male, uh voters,” Karp said. “So these disruptions are gonna disrupt every aspect of our society,” he said.

Tracking the Iran conflict: A Colorado veteran’s daily sitrep from day 10 onward

By Kennesaw | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice As a USAF ELINT veteran, I have always anchored my compass in Bible truth and the Founders' original intent on liberty first, peace through strength, and no endless entanglements. That is why I am tracking the Iran conflict: to provide daily situation report (sitrep) briefings on the Iran conflict, pulling from open-sourced and verified intelligence like CENTCOM feeds, satellite imagery, and cross-checked reports. No legacy media spin, no "both-sides" relativism—just raw, evidence-grounded truth that cuts through the noise. For Coloradans, from our tech-savvy hubs in Boulder to the resilient communities in the Rockies, this matters. Our state hosts critical defense assets like NORAD and plays a role in energy ...

Trump Taps Oklahoma Sen Markwayne Mullin To Lead Homeland Security

By Virginia Allen | The Daily Signal Oklahoma Republican Sen. Markwayne Mullin said he was “humbled” to be President Donald Trump’s nominee as the next homeland security secretary, replacing Kristi Noem. “Humbling,” Mullin told press when asked of his first reaction to his nomination. “I had to call my dad … because it happened quick. I had to call my wife,” Mullin said, adding, “It’s just, you know, pretty humbling when you start thinking about it: A little kid from Westville, Oklahoma, gets to serve in the president’s Cabinet. That’s pretty neat.” When Mullin is confirmed, he says his priority will be to enforce the laws Congress has passed. “My focus is to keep the homeland secure. That’s going to be my focus, and we’re super excited about this op...
