Number of Young Americans Identifying as Trans and 'Queer' Plummets, Study Likens to 'Fading of a Fashion or Trend':
Colleges — typically maligned as being the breeding ground for far-leftism in 2025 — saw the number of trans-identifying students cut nearly in half after its peak in 2023.
That year, nearly 7 percent of college students identified as trans. That number now sits at less than 4 percent.

- While Beijing claims neutrality by reducing exports of fully-assembled drones, a surge in shipments of fiber-optic cables and lithium-ion batteries to Russia tells a different story.
- This flood of components has allowed Moscow to dramatically scale up its domestic production of jamming-resistant drones.
- As a result, Russia is now overwhelming Ukrainian defenses and logistics behind the front lines, seizing the advantage in the crucial drone war and costing “uncountable” Ukrainian lives.

The UN Is About to Institute a De Facto Tax on American Citizens: 'The Ultimate in Taxation Without Representation':
The United States boasts plenty of coal, wood, and fowl — enough to provide all the tar and feathers required.
Indeed, the globalist bureaucrats at the United Nations should remember how Americans deal with unconstitutional attempts at taxation.
