I wonder why TES used a graph that shows decline in unspecified drug deaths beginning in 2024, during Biden’s presidency. Time will tell if Trump actually fixes Venezuela or not. ABN
This is true and one of the main reasons students of any age do much better when in classes with classmates who are all at roughly the same level and are being taught by teachers who understand this.
This principle need have nothing to do with race.
It is basic pedagogy, and can be extrapolated to many other situations — employment, clubs, social circles, immigration, neighborhoods, and yes, also race and cultural background.
This is the main reason DEI is always guaranteed to fail.
The leftist craze to ‘end Whiteness’ is based on degrading Whites by forcing them to learn and work among people who are not at their level, culturally, morally or intellectually.
Civilizations progress only when the most talented people rise to the top, not the most pathological and self-aggrandizing ones. ABN
The video captures the sequence of events on January 3, 2026, when a Chinese delegation led by envoy Qiu Xiaoqi met Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro to reaffirm bilateral ties on energy and trade, only for U.S. forces to launch airstrikes and capture Maduro hours later, as announced by President Trump.
The video footage depicts a cordial exchange between Maduro and the envoy, including zodiac sign banter (Maduro as a Tiger, referencing a 2006 meeting with Hu Jintao) and discussions of “unbreakable brotherhood” against U.S. influence, highlighting Venezuela’s strategic pivot toward China for economic support.
Trump’s operation, conducted with Maduro facing U.S. charges on drugs and weapons, serves as a geopolitical statement amid escalating U.S.-China rivalry in Latin America, potentially stalling hundreds of Sino-Venezuelan deals valued at billions in oil and infrastructure investments.
Classic clan response due to stress. Parasites always hate their hosts because it permits them ‘morally’ to justify their parasitism.
Hatred of the host is a strong identifier of a parasitic group.
Whites have trouble understanding this because we do not group together in biological clans, but rather in a communal sense of what is right or wrong based on the rule of law.
Beyond that, unwise Christian love for others has penetrated too deeply in most Whites, bypassing existential wisdom.
The entire rest of the world is tribal and clannish based on biology.
Whites’ Achilles heel is their blindness to this global reality.
What he is saying is spoken in anger and fear, but his hatred is 100% normal for clan-based humans. ABN
Donald Trump has hailed his ‘brilliant’ operation to capture Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, as Maduro’s deputy demanded proof the leader is still alive.
Speaking to The New York Times at 4:30am on Saturday morning, nine minutes after announcing the raid on his TruthSocial website, Trump said: ‘A lot of good planning and lot of great, great troops and great people.
‘It was a brilliant operation, actually.’ Asked if he had consulted Congress prior to authorizing the strike, Trump said: ‘We’ll discuss that.’
He then told the paper he’d give more details during a press conference scheduled for 11:30 ET from his Mar-a-Lago country club in Palm Beach, Florida.
I have not watched this yet, but believe it will be of interests to readers. ABN
UPDATE: Watched this last night. It is very well done, informative, credible and well-worth viewing, especially if you have been following the Kirk murder story. ABN
A four-wheeled canopy wagon was recovered from the Lchashen cemetery near Lake Sevan, Live Science reported on Monday, citing Armenian archaeologists and the History Museum of Armenia.
The wagon is said to be one of the best-preserved early covered wagons.
The Late Bronze Age vehicle, dated to the 15th–14th centuries B.C., was unearthed with five other oak wagons in an elite burial ground and later conserved for display in Yerevan. According to the museum and published studies, the discovery followed the Soviet-era drainage of Lake Sevan, which exposed more than 500 graves and rich grave goods.
A four-wheeled canopy wagon was recovered from the Lchashen cemetery near Lake Sevan, December 29, 2025.
The Lchashen wagon features a complex mortise-and-tenon construction with bronze fittings that join at least 70 components, while its canopy frame alone required hundreds of precisely mortised holes.
The wagon measures roughly 2 meters in length, and its two-piece wooden wheels stand about 160 centimeters tall. Archaeologists note that four of the cemetery’s vehicles carried superstructures, suggesting ceremonial or prestige use as well as transport.
