Unsung Heroes: For the Last 6 Months Amish Volunteers Quietly Rebuild Devastated NC Town

Recovery and rebuilding efforts from the devastation unleashed by Hurricane Helene on towns like Chimney Rock, North Carolina has largely faded from the headlines and the public’s awareness.

Over the past 6 months, however, a team of 2,000 volunteers from the Great Needs Trust, a Pennsylvania Amish community, have been quietly and steadily rebuilding the town’s homes, businesses and bridges.

Trump’s purge of the professionals

The attack is terrible — and deserved

If you see someone glued to the Slack app on their phone, or lugging around a MacBook at a coffee shop, please salute them. They aren’t just doing their email jobs — they’re troops in the Great Class War of 2025.

I’m referring to the Trump administration’s shock-and-awe campaign against the hard-to-define strata of college-educated Americans who perform “knowledge work”. They are often dubbed the professional managerial class, or PMC for short. This month, scribes at The Atlantic and New York published essays lamenting the Trumpian war on the professionals. PMCs are “being targeted for political, cultural, and perhaps economic extinction” by the White House, wrote Ed Kilgore. He’s got a point. Now that we’re entering the fourth month of Trump II, it’s clear that when the President repeatedly uttered, “I am your retribution” with comic-book-villain bravado on the campaign trail, he wasn’t bluffing.

Navy Scraps Biden-Era ‘Climate Action’ Plan, Returns Focus To Warfighting

The U.S. Navy officially scrapped a Biden-era “climate action” plan for the force on Tuesday, signifying the Trump administration’s ongoing efforts to refocus the military towards warfighting.

“Today, I’m focusing on the warfighters first, and I’m rescinding the Biden administration’s climate action program. Our focus needs to be on lethality and our warfighters,” Navy Secretary John Phelan announced in a video message.

New Evidence Against Kilmar Abrego Garcia Drops… And It’s Bad

Well, the evidence against Kilmar Abrego Garcia just keeps piling up. According to the Department of Homeland Security, the now-deported MS-13 thug was driving a car registered to a convicted human smuggler during a traffic stop in Tennessee back in 2022—and he wasn’t alone. He had a group of men with him, raising even more questions about what exactly he was up to. This is the kind of criminal the Left is fighting to protect while pretending Trump is the threat.

US Can Produce Rare Earths If China Stops Exports–But There’s a Catch

It could take up to five years to develop a domestic supply chain to supplant China’s global monopoly in processing rare earths into materials needed to produce everything from iPhones to F-35 fighter jets.

While the United States has most of the 17 rare earth elements and 50 critical minerals underground, it has no industrial capacity to refine them into processed metals and magnets, according to Melissa “Mel” Sanderson, American Rare Earths board member and Critical Minerals Institute co-chair.

China says it wants Carney to be it’s lapdog to push back against American ‘bullying’

China says it wants to partner with Canada to push back against American ‘bullying’

OTTAWA — China’s ambassador says Beijing is offering to form a partnership with Canada to push back against American “bullying,” suggesting the two countries could rally other nations to stop Washington from undermining global rules.

“We want to avoid the situation where humanity is brought back to a world of the law of the jungle again,” Chinese Ambassador Wang Di told The Canadian Press in a wide-ranging interview.

“China is Canada’s opportunity, not Canada’s threat,” he said through the embassy’s interpreter.

Wang — whose office requested the interview with The Canadian Press — said that China and Canada appear to be the only countries taking “concrete and real countermeasures against the unjustified U.S. tariffs” imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump.

Free Trade Fundamentalists Ignore Chinese Threat

Unprecedentedly high tariffs on imports from China are the latest escalation in a new cold war that may eventually turn hot, a war that we could lose. The new “adversary” is China, a fascist, racist, expansionist, deceitful, dishonest, and manipulative superpower that wants to impose on the whole world the authoritarian hellscape it’s imposed on its own population.

For the skeptics and the appeasers who don’t think China is a serious threat, or that human rights in China are no better or worse than they are here in America, it’s time to resurrect arguments from the last Cold War, arguments that worked then and ought to work now: America is a mess. A flawed, divided, fractious, chaotic melange of oligarchs and jingoists, crackers and crips, soft corporate censorship and bureaucratic gridlock, with bursting prisons and broken ghettos, with wealth inequality and simmering racial tension. We’re not perfect!

Canada’s Mark Carney Shares the Same Goal as China — Ending American Dominance

Canadians may be hell bent against becoming America’s 51st state, but if the April 28 elections confirm globalist central banker Mark Carney as prime minister it could go China’s way.

In the divisive election campaign following Carney’s appointment to lead the ruling Liberal Party, the high-flying ex-governor of the Bank of Canada with strong Chinese business connections is whipping up anti-American sentiment supported by European socialists, which has hallmarks of a CCP strategy.

$1 Trillion of Wealth Was Created for the 19 Richest U.S. Households Last Year

The wealthiest have gotten richer, and control a record share of America’s wealth. New data suggest $1 trillion of wealth was created for the 19 richest American households alone in 2024. That’s more than the value of Switzerland’s entire economy.

It took four decades for the top 0.00001% of Americans’ share of total U.S. household wealth to grow from 0.1% in 1982—when 11 households made up that rarefied group—to 1.2% in 2023, according to an analysis by Gabriel Zucman, an economist at the University of California, Berkeley, and the Paris School of Economics.

In one year, by the end of 2024, the share of total U.S. household wealth for the modern 0.00001%—those 19 households—jumped to 1.8%, or about $2.6 trillion. That is the biggest one-year increase on record, according to Zucman.

Military Finds Physical Reality Shatters DEI-Fueled Theories About The Sexes

Ten years have passed since the Department of Defense initiated a social experiment with women in the military. Pentagon officials promised that female trainees headed for previously all-male combat arms units would have to meet the exact same standards as men. Has the experiment played out as promised?

We are about to find out. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth’s March 30 memorandum calls for a 60-day review to achieve high, uncompromised standards in combat arms units such as the infantry, special operations, and other occupations with extraordinary physical demands.

Bribing Illegals to Self-Deport Might Be the Only Real Solution Available to Trump

Conservatives need to face reality — deporting tens of millions of illegals requires a carrot as well as a stick.

Over the weekend, Breitbart had a piece about President Trump’s reference to a “touchback amnesty” — or, perhaps more accurately, providing an incentive for illegal aliens to self-deport in large numbers in the hope that some of them might be able to come back legally.

US sets tariffs of up to 3,521% on South East Asia solar panels

The US Commerce Department has announced plans to impose tariffs of up to 3,521% on imports of solar panels from four South East Asian countries.

It comes after an investigation that began a year ago when several major solar equipment producers asked the administration of then-President Joe Biden to protect their US operations.

The proposed levies – targeting companies in Cambodia, Thailand, Malaysia and Vietnam – are in response to allegations of subsidies from China and the dumping of unfairly cheap products in the US market.
