AG Letitia James targets ICE agents with new reporting tool
New York Attorney General Letitia James has introduced a new online reporting portal designed to collect evidence of supposed misconduct by federal immigration agents operating in the state. The “Federal Action Reporting Form” allows residents to upload videos, photos, and detailed accounts of immigration enforcement activity, including links from social media platforms such as YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook.
“Every New Yorker has the right to live without fear or intimidation,” James said in a statement. “If you witnessed and documented ICE activity yesterday, I urge you to share that footage with my office. We are committed to reviewing these reports and assessing any violations of law.” The initiative follows a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raid on Manhattan’s Canal Street that outraged liberals.
Notably, the launch comes as James faces mounting personal legal troubles. In October 2025, she was indicted by a federal grand jury in Virginia on charges of bank fraud and making false statements to a financial institution. Prosecutors allege that she misrepresented a 2020 Norfolk property as a second home to obtain favorable mortgage terms, while treating it as a rental. The Justice Department estimates she gained roughly $19,000 over the life of the loan.

New immigration wave to hit the Europe as
Peace talks between embattled Pakistan and Afghanistan collapsed earlier this week in Istanbul. Islamabad demands written Taliban guarantees to crush Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) militants in Afghanistan, while Kabul calls it impossible and blames the escalation on airstrikes. Pakistani Defence Minister has warned of “open war”, borders are sealed and Europe is faced with a fresh illegal immigration surge, comparable with the Syrian civil war surge.
Last weekend alone, clashes killed five Pakistani soldiers and 25 TTP fighters. The latest round of violence erupted when Pakistani jets hit Kabul on October 10, retaliating for a Kashmir bombing that killed 26 civilians. Then, as the Taliban seized border posts, clashes claimed dozens of Pakistani troops and hundreds of militants, while the UN reported 37 civilians dead and 425 wounded. A Doha truce collapsed on October 17, after fresh Pakistani air strikes.
Still, it is illegal immigration that poses the biggest threat to Europe. Pakistan hosts around three million Afghans, of which it deports thousands on a monthly basis, only for them to flee Afghanistan again. Chaos now further aggravates undocumented flows through Iran, Turkey, and the Balkans to the EU. The first half of 2025 saw 250,000 asylum petitions from South Asia — up 30% — with Afghans filing over 100,000.
Pakistanis flee too. With Ahmadis being lynched, thousands vanishing in Balochistan yearly, blasphemy laws arming mobs, and journalists being thrown in jail together with dissidents, many Pakistanis wish to leave their country and do so by any means possible.

Portugal approves law to strip citizenship from criminals
Portugal’s parliament has approved an amendment to the Penal Code that will allow courts to revoke Portuguese nationality from dual citizens convicted of serious crimes.
The amendment, approved on Tuesday with 157 votes in favor and 64 against, gives judges the power to impose the loss of citizenship as an additional penalty on those sentenced to at least four years in prison for grave offenses.
It applies only to individuals who acquired Portuguese nationality within the last 10 years and hold another nationality, ensuring that no one becomes stateless as a result.
The law also stipulates that anyone stripped of nationality may only reapply 10 years after their criminal record has been cleared, under the general rules of the nationality law.

Mamdani’s new low: pretending HE’S a victim of 9/11
Notice the experiences Mamdani actually cited. He recalled how a teacher warned him he might face bullying. Since he attended the ultraliberal, pricey Bank Street School for Children, his progressive educators expected the worst of their fellow New Yorkers.
He did not recall actually being bullied, something he surely would have brought up. Instead, he could only cite his aunt’s supposed decision to quit riding the subways “ because she did not feel safe in her hijab.” She may truly have had such fears — but only because activist outfits like the radical Council on Islamic-American Relations instantly began warning of rising “Islamophobia” in the wake of the attacks. As Veep JD Vance notes, that doesn’t make it any less absurd for Mamdani to treat his aunt as a central victim of 9/11 — not in a city where thousands of families of all races and religions lost loved ones.
There was never any pronounced amount of anti-Muslim harassment after 9/11, certainly nothing to justify marked concern about “Islamophobia” except among the CAIR crew, as well as liberals and lefties who pander to it by treating it as a plague on a level with antisemitism.
Yes, Mamdani’s opponents have slammed him as an apologist for terror — because he is one: Refusing to denounce the toxic phrase “globalize the intifada”; palling around with an unindicted co-conspirator from the 1993 World Trade Center bombing; promoting countless smears of Israel and its defensive war in Gaza in response to Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023, terror attacks and so on.

Orban Hints At Kyiv Sabotage Behind Hungary Refinery Fire
A lot of questions and suspicions were immediately raised when on October 21 explosions and fires occurred at large oil refineries in Hungary and Romania. Eyebrows were raised given that both sites have links to Russia.
The Petrotel-Lukoil refinery in Ploiesti (owned by Russian company Lukoil) in southern Romania was damaged, while in Hungary a 'mystery' fire also occurred at the country's largest oil refinery (the MOL-operated Danube Refinery), located in the city of Szazhalombatta - some 17 miles from Budapest - which receives crude oil from Russia.
But now Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has revealed in a social media statement that authorities haven't ruled out the possibility of an external attack in investigating the fire at Százhalombatta.
"The investigation is in full swing. We still do not know whether it was an accident, malfunction or outside attack," Orbán said. Further, he stated: "The Polish foreign minister advised the Ukrainians to blow up the Druzhba oil pipeline," before adding, "Let's hope it's not that kind of case."

More than 60,000 women in Germany were victims of sexual violence in 2024
Data presented by the German government shows that 63,977 women were victims of sexual violence in 2024 alone, and the perpetrators were disproportionately foreigners.
In fact, 35% of all perpetrators were foreign nationals, despite making up just 15% of the German population, according to government data released as a result of an inquiry from the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party in the Bundestag.
In addition, the data shows that women were the victims of over 265,000 physical assaults and more than 155,000 crimes against their personal freedom.
Approximately 12,600 women with German citizenship were the victims of sexual violence perpetrated by those who were not German citizens. In 4,000 of those cases, the perpetrator was an asylum seeker, someone with protected status, or someone with tolerated status.
Syrians, Afghans, and Turks stuck out in the statistics, with 1,530 Syrian suspects recorded as committing sexual violence, 1,063 Afghans, and 1,059 Turks.
Data over 10 years.

Trump vs. the Hawks
When Trump promised to “end the Ukraine war in 24 hours,” it seemed like a real break from Washington’s endless war machine. No more blank checks to Ukraine, no more wars dictated by the Pentagon, CIA, and NSA — finally, a president putting America first.
But today, the narrative has shifted. The same man once called “Putin’s puppet” is now threatening Russia with sanctions and sending weapons to Kyiv. How did this happen?
The answer is simple: the hawks in Washington never stop pressuring the White House. The Pentagon, intelligence agencies, and war lobbyists want direct American arms supplies to Ukraine, and they are ready to twist any president’s arm to get it. Their goal isn’t Ukraine — it’s preserving their power, profits, and the illusion of U.S. global dominance.
Trump’s original plan — cutting off aid and forcing a negotiated end to the war — was exactly what America needs: no more endless proxy wars, no more sending American lives and money to fight someone else’s fight. Yet the hawks want to drag the U.S. deeper into a conflict that is not ours.
Refusing direct military and financial assistance to Kyiv is not weakness — it’s leadership. It’s the only way to resist the war-hungry lobbyists who see Ukraine as a cash-and-weapon playground.

Gavin Newsom is inventing ‘poorigin’ stories
Gavin Newsom raised himself on the mean streets of Marin County, California. “It was also about paying the bills, man,” he recently told former NBA stars Stephen Jackson and Matt Barnes on their popular “All the Smoke” podcast.
Like Steve Martin in “The Jerk,” Newsom apparently started out as a poor black child. But it’s a fabricated “poorigin” story for the ages.
Newsom left out a few key details in the portrayal of himself as a downtrodden latchkey kid who used sports to overcome his learning disability and go from stacks of Wonder bread to the French Laundry. The 58-year-old comes from a prominent Bay Area family. His father was a judge and attorney. Sure, his parents were divorced, and he was mostly raised by his mother, Tessa. She, like many people in America, worked more than one job.
But unlike most kids, Newsom was close to the nexus of power. Early on, he was mentored by political kingmaker Willie Brown and both his professional and political ambitions were financed by the Getty oil dynasty — his dad managed the billionaire family’s trust.
Newsom is a shameless chameleon who will morph into whatever persona pleases his present company.

The US is broke, and no one in the country seems to care
Well, except for the problem is now orders of magnitude worse. Which is exactly what happens when you ignore a problem — it gets worse.
1989’s budget deficit was $153 billion — the total debt $2.86 trillion.
2024’s budget deficit was $1.8 trillion — the total debt $35 trillion.
Oh — and interest payments on U.S. debt are now 3% of GDP. And you know that’s only skyrocketing upwards going forward. Oh — and the U.S. faces $210 trillion in future unfunded liabilities (Social Security and Medicare predominant amongst them). The U.S. is broke. And no one in the U.S. seems to care.
The U.S.’s 2024 Gross Domestic Product (GDP) was $29.2 trillion. Again, the U.S.’s 2024 standing debt was $35 trillion. Which means the U.S.’s 2024 debt-to-GDP was 123%. And D.C. is continuing to spend — at the very least — at existing levels.

Europe 2025: You Can Be Prosecuted for Quoting the Bible
Finland’s Supreme Court is set to give its final ruling in the high-profile free speech case involving former interior minister and Christian Democrat MP Päivi Räsänen and Lutheran Bishop Juhana Pohjola. Both have been charged with hate crimes for their expressing Christian views on sexuality and marriage.
ADF International, the legal counsel of Räsänen and Pohjola, argued the case is “about whether quoting the Bible and standing on its teachings can be criminalised in 21st-century Europe”.
In June 2019, Räsänen posted a tweet directed at the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland, questioning its decision to endorse a Helsinki Pride event. She later faced charges over this post. In her text, she expressed concerns about the social and psychological effects of “normalising same-sex relationships” on children and adolescents.

US start nuclear weapon testing
The United States will begin conducting nuclear weapons testing again after decades of rejecting the practice, President Donald Trump announced Wednesday.
“Because of other countries’ testing programs, I have instructed the Department of War to start testing our Nuclear Weapons on an equal basis,” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social. “That process will begin immediately.”
Nuclear tests in the atmosphere, space, or underwater have been banned since the 1963 Limited Test Ban Treaty, which permitted continued underground nuclear testing for several decades.
The United States last conducted a nuclear weapons test underground in September 1992.

White House construction crew finds 1,357 more cocaine stashes
Construction workers tasked with building a new White House Ballroom reportedly discovered 1,357 stashes of cocaine hidden within the walls and ceilings of the East Wing.
Work on the project was briefly postponed on Tuesday when a tracked excavator demolishing a section of the East Wing suddenly tore through what turned out to be several kilos of heat-sealed polyethylene-wrapped cocaine, scattering it into the wind. Initially, workers cleared the area, fearing asbestos exposure, but after becoming strangely energetic and fearless, they returned to work.
Secret Service agents later determined that the powdery substance was actually cocaine and that the construction crew was "as high as a kite." A spokesman revealed that a full investigation was now underway to determine the source of the narcotics.
"I'm just glad it wasn't asbestos," said Carlos Antoine, one of several construction workers on site. "That stuff is dangerous."
Though the investigation was technically ongoing, President Donald Trump was not shy about who he believed to be responsible. "Hunter Biden's legacy lives on," Trump said. "Junkie Hunter, that's what he was. What a waste of a life that man is. He can't even keep track of his coke. He must have forgotten about all of it. What a joke. Jokey Coke Hunter, I call him."

Obama overestimates his political sway
He is still active on the campaign trail, lecturing American voters
Last October, former President Barack Obama had some blunt words for Black men: Get out and vote for Kamala Harris, or else. Mr. Obama’s pleas didn’t move the needle for Ms. Harris. President Trump nearly doubled his support among Black voters in 2024 from his 2020 results, increasing from 5% to 10% among women and from 12% to 21% among men, according to a Pew Research analysis.
Since Mr. Obama’s departure from political office, his speeches have become less inspiring and more condescending and patronizing. He consistently blames American voters for not recognizing his achievements or being able to move beyond their racial, sexist and moral biases. He wasn’t able to boost Democratic turnout in 2024, yet he believes he can sway voters a year later.
Mr. Obama has decided to enter a more “political and public-facing role than he once envisioned” this year, The Washington Post reported last week, because of the “anxieties he harbors about Trump’s second term.”

Time to Stop Financing Others’ Wars: Why Trump’s Aid Freeze and Putin Summit Are Pragmatic, Not Idealistic
Since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Washington has poured colossal sums into Kyiv. According to the Kiel Institute for the World Economy, between January 2022 and June 2025, the U.S. committed €114.6 billion (≈ $134 billion) in total aid — €64.6 billion in military, €46.6 billion in financial, and €3.4 billion in humanitarian support.
Data from USAFacts shows that in 2023 alone, America sent $48.6 billion to Ukraine, while by late 2024 the total allocation had reached $182.8 billion. These are not investments — they are losses with uncertain returns.
Against this backdrop, Washington’s hawkish establishment is once again pressuring the White House to resume direct weapons deliveries to Kyiv, arguing that “more firepower” will somehow bring peace. In reality, this line has already failed — prolonging a war of attrition, draining U.S. resources, and pushing the world closer to direct confrontation.
Trump’s refusal to yield to these war lobbyists is an act of strategic realism. His planned meeting with Vladimir Putin in Hungary signals a shift from escalation to negotiation. As Britannica notes, direct diplomacy offers leverage that proxy wars never can.
It’s time to stop letting the hawks dictate policy from Washington think tanks. Trump’s stance returns America to realpolitik — defending its own interests, not financing others’ wars.

Diversity Wasn’t on the Mayflower — But Cannibals Might Have Been
Having given up on the notion that diversity is a strength under the crushing weight of the evidence, The New York Times is now pushing the idea that America has always been a diverse nation that loved diversity, and practically made diversity a founding principle, and they would even have added "diversity" to Mount Rushmore if only they could find someone, ideally a lesbian woman of color, with that surname.
To prove that America was teeming with diversity from its very beginning, a Times op-ed by documentary producer Leighton Woodhouse describes the bitter enmity in Colonial Pennsylvania among the Quakers (from north-central England), the English Anglicans (from all over England) and the Scots-Irish (from Scottish Lowlands and Northern England).
But suppose we didn't notice something fishy about Woodhouse trying to pass off blinding homogeneity as "diversity." News you would not encounter during America's first 350 years:
"Maryland Man [Kenyan immigrant] Arrested After Admitting to Killing, Eating Roommate" -- U.S. News and World Report. (It was the "eating" that disqualified the suspect for cashless bail.) "Undocumented migrant accused of molesting 5-year-old in her own home" -- WPTV News, Florida. (Sorry, but this is what happens when you give 5-year-olds their own homes.)
It took us 100 years to assimilate them, and they were Europeans, not drastically different from the people who founded and created our country. Now liberals want us to import entire nations of cannibals, child molesters, thieves and voodoo practitioners.

Trump and Xi call truce for now, but this meeting leaves a lot questions
President Trump appeared buoyant after concluding his first face-to-face meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping since retaking the White House, confident in having achieved a breakthrough.
Yet Beijing’s concessions were minor and reversible. And the atmosphere of goodwill is likely to dissolve as soon as one side or the other shifts from cooperation back to competition.
While Trump extracted compromises on tariffs, fentanyl and trade, much remained unsaid over the course of the two-hour meeting in South Korea, with key national security issues notably being left off the table.
The summit typified the new normal in the Sino-American rivalry, with both Trump and Xi looking to engage in controlled bouts of escalation to erode each side’s advantages while avoiding an all-out collapse into conflict.
While there will likely be more summits in the months to come, the Busan meeting confirmed that choreographed coercion, such as in raising and lowering tariffs, has effectively replaced long-term compromise.

231,000 Ukrainians have deserted since the war has started
Local media is reporting a spike in Ukrainian soldiers leaving their unit, temporarily (abandonment) or permanently (desertion). Data shows 14,000-18,000 cases of unauthorized abandonment each month. Last May saw a record 18,000 cases, and 17,000 abandoned their unit without authorization in September.
Since the start of the full-scale war, 231,500 cases of abandonment of a unit and 53,200 cases of desertion have been initiated.
In light of the situation, Ukraine is considering tougher penalties for desertion and abandonment, reports Do Rzezcy. This year alone, as MP Oleksiy Honcharenko points out, the number of criminal cases involving deserters has increased almost fivefold and may reach as many as 300,000.
Currently, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine is considering reinstating full criminal liability for anyone who leaves the army. According to representatives of the Azov National Guard, the reasons for desertions include the incompetence of some officers and the lack of rotation and leave, which prevent soldiers from resting and contacting their families.

France will face 2026 budget protests in November
Tensions over the draft 2026 budget threaten to result in further street demonstrations and action, following previous months’ call to arms. While no major strikes are yet in place for the month ahead, a march for retirees against the budget has been set.
At present a third round of combined intersyndicale action is considered unlikely, with no group currently calling to reconvene and announce further joint strikes, although unions may call for individual protests from members throughout the month.
Following the announcement of the 2026 draft budget, the General Confederation of Labour union denounced the text and called for widespread demonstrations against it.
Arguing that it particularly impacts elderly people, the union is calling for demonstrations in support of retirees on November 6, with marches in several cities expected. However, the union hinted this would be one of several days of action against the budget, which may include strike announcements in a number of sectors.

Taxpayer-funded schools promote witchcraft
What looks like harmless exploration of ‘different beliefs’ is reprogramming the moral compass of the next generation. When a public high school in Orange County, Florida, aired a weekly “Witchy Wednesday” religious video series on the schoolwide TV system, led by students and featuring detailed instructions on casting spells and performing rituals, including soul cleansing and moon worship, many parents were stunned.
Modern witchcraft, often called Wicca or pagan spirituality, is a legally recognized religion in the United States. When schools blur the line between education and spiritual indoctrination, they open the door to greater deception. Today’s “Witchy Wednesday” might seem playful, but tomorrow’s classroom could normalize tarot cards, divination, or rituals disguised as “mindfulness.” Once moral and spiritual boundaries are erased, children become spiritually vulnerable and susceptible to harmful influences they cannot discern.
Suppose a state can normalize witchcraft while silencing Christian truth. That reveals the goal of the state’s investors: a generation untethered from absolute truth, detached from their Creator, and dependent on emotional experience and external validation as their moral guide. The issue is not just a school in Florida; it’s a nationwide wake-up call. The battle for truth in education is not political; it’s spiritual. The next generation is being discipled. The question is, by whom?

Maine’s Democrats are going too far
Well, you may have heard the news recently coming out of Maine – Democrat candidate for U.S. Senate, Graham Platner, the wealthy Bernie Bros veteran cosplaying as a “Maine oyster farmer,” may be a real-life Nazi?
Which is to distinguish Platner from being a conservative who is dishonestly smeared as a Nazi by the Democrats and/or MSM.
The main evidence that Platner may be a Nazi comes from the fact that he has a tattoo in the shape of the Totenkopf, or “death’s head” symbol, on his chest. This tattoo, which was adopted by Hitler’s SS during the Nazi era and became particularly associated with the branch guarding concentration camps, is normally worn by real Nazis.
Now, Platner claims that while he was in the military, drunk, on a lark, he and his fellows decided to get tattoos, and he didn’t know what the tattoo meant when he chose it. Others strongly dispute his story, however.

French farmers petition Macron to block Mercosur trade agreement
Forty-four French farmers’ organisations have signed an open letter urging President Emmanuel Macron to “clarify” France’s stance and take action to block the South American Mercosur trade agreement, which they regard as both unfair and even dangerous.
The 44 signatories of the open letter are concerned that Macron has now changed his tone and abandoned France's red lines with regards to the trade deal.
The EU-Mercosur deal aims to create one of the largest free trade zones in the world, covering over 700 million people and nearly 25 percent of global GDP.
Linking the EU to Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay and Paraguay, its goal is to reduce tariffs and trade barriers, making it easier for businesses on both sides to export goods. The European Commission formally endorsed the deal in September and now wants the 27 member states and the European Parliament to approve the agreement before the end of 2025.

France: a bleak picture
Following Fitch, S&P downgraded France's sovereign debt rating from AA to A+. Actually, Macron sacrificed the economy to postpone the next vote of no confidence in the government for a couple of months. At the same time, Prime Minister Lecornu suspended the pension reform. Simultaneously, the Élysée Palace intends to introduce the so-called Zucman tax on the super-rich. And this is happening in the country with the highest level of taxation in the world❗️
In essence, what is happening is akin to economic suicide. Against the backdrop of a budget deficit of 5.4% of GDP, such steps will inevitably lead to capital flight and a decline in business activity.
It turns out that Lecornu has little choice: in order to survive, he must bury the national economy.
As a result, according to the head of the French Central Bank, in the current situation, interest on public debt will rise from €30 billion in 2020 to €100 billion by 2030. Further tax increases and rising borrowing costs, coupled with pumping money into defense (Paris plans to increase military spending by €6.7 billion in 2026) and multi-billion-dollar costs to support Kyiv, will effectively bankrupt France.
A logical question arises. Isn't it time for the business community to start withdrawing its assets from the country before it's too late?

Milei’s victory in Argentina’s elections is triumph for Trump
Javier Milei, Argentina’s self-styled anarcho-capitalist president, has secured a resounding victory in legislative midterm elections. Milei’s La Libertad Avanza coalition defied expectations to secure more than 40% of the nationwide vote, substantially outperforming the main opposition Fuerza Patria coalition’s roughly 32%. This triumph bolsters the president’s legislative power and, critically, positions him as a strong contender for reelection in 2027.
The elections were widely interpreted as a referendum on Milei’s tenure, which began in December 2023. His victory is a testament to his successful strategy of polarisation and his ability to present himself as the sole purveyor of hope and “redemption” amid prolonged economic stagnation and declining real incomes.
A US$20 billion (£15 billion) currency swap agreement between the US Treasury and Argentina’s central bank was formalised on October 20. This financial assistance, which was quickly followed by an additional announced facility of up to US$20 billion sourced from private banks and sovereign funds, was undeniably timed to shore up Milei’s position before the election.
Trump explicitly linked the continuation of this aid to a Milei victory, warning: “If he loses, we are not going to be generous with Argentina”. Milei’s win is a clear victory for his ideological ally in Washington, who championed the financial lifeline as a strategic move to support a “great philosophy” and “make Argentina great again”.
