The internet did what the internet does: it dug up old video clips of left‑wing streamer Hasan Piker, clipped them into short, spicy bites, and handed them to an audience hungry for outrage.

Robert De Niro and Mark Ruffalo staged a profanity‑laced show in New York at the “Hands Off Our Vote” GOTV rally. They shouted at President Trump and called his voter‑roll review a threat.

President Trump just lit a fuse in the Middle East that a lot of people didn’t see coming.

Whether you cheer or jeer, you have to admit: […] More

Canada’s Medical Assistance in Dying program was sold as a compassionate option for the terminally ill.
