I will argue for the rest of my life that the 1970s delivered the most incredible rock music of all time. Now, many will claim it was the 1960s, and I must say they have a pretty good point. I mean, we’re talking about The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Jefferson Airplane, Cream, and so many other greats that came out of the 1960s. If you went to high school in the 1960s, you’ll most definitely argue that it was the sixties. However, I graduated high school in 1979, so the ’70s were the decade that I grew up in, and The post 100 Greatest Rock Songs Of The 1970s appeared first on ClassicRockHistory.com.

A farmer has treated her herd of dairy cows to a live jazz band in the hope the music will boost milk production. The Dixiebeats performed to both the Jersey and Holstein cows at Smithills Open Farm in Bolton, the UK, last Sunday. The six-piece combo was invited to play after owners had read that […] The post Farmers Invite Jazz Band to Play Moosic for Cows in Bid to Boost Milk Production – WATCH appeared first on Good News Network.

President Donald Trump says he is confident a deal can be reached to end the war between Ukraine and Russia.   “I think that he wants to make a deal,” Trump said of Russian President Vladimir Putin. “I made eight of them. I’m going to make a ninth,” the president added.   “But I love solving wars. You know why? I like stopping people from being killed, and I’ve saved millions and millions of lives, and I think we’re going to have success with this war,” Trump said during a meeting Friday with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

That was one nobody thought could be done, and we got it done,” Trump said of the peace deal that has ended fighting between Israel and Hamas. Will Trump be able to carry over the momentum from securing peace in the Middle East to helping solve the war in Ukraine?"?Nobody thought it could be done. That was one nobody thought could be done. And we got it done." pic.twitter.com/eKcquAq5Sm— The Daily Signal (@DailySignal) October 17, 2025 Trump welcomed Zelenskyy to the White House one day after having a call with Putin that Trump described as “productive.” Trump and Putin plan to hold a second summit in Budapest, Hungary in the near future aimed at ending the war between Russia and Ukraine.   While Trump admitted Putin might be aiming to buy himself more time to continue the war against Ukraine, Trump said he’s “been played all my life by the best of them, and I came out really well.”   “So it’s possible, little time, it’s all right, but I think that I’m pretty good at this stuff,” Trump said.  The Trump administration has had a hand in ending conflicts between Thailand and Cambodia; Israel and Iran; the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Rwanda; India and Pakistan; Egypt and Ethiopia; Serbia and Kosovo; Armenia and Azerbaijan; and most recently, between Israel and Hamas.   Weapons, including Tomahawk missiles, were expected to play a central role in closed-door conversations between Trump, Zelenskyy, and top leaders at the White House on Friday afternoon.   “Hopefully we’ll be able to get the war over with without thinking about tomahawks,” Trump told press ahead of the closed-door portion of the meeting. Trump did not say the U.S. would not provide Ukraine with Tomahawk missiles, but said the U.S. needs the weaponry in America for U.S. defense purposes as well.   For Ukraine’s part, Zelenskyy said security guarantees are the most important thing to ensure a safe future for his country.   “NATO is the best, but weapons are very important,” Zelenskyy said. “Allies on our side is very important, and … for us, bilateral security guarantees between me and President Trump is very important.”   While it is very unlikely Ukraine will be admitted into NATO, Putin has previously indicated he is open to a peace deal that would include security guarantees for Ukraine, though it is not clear which guarantees the Russian leader would be willing to agree to.   The post ‘I Love Solving Wars’: Trump Pledges to Make Deal Between Russia and Ukraine appeared first on The Daily Signal.

ORLANDO, Florida—The American Federation of Teachers and the National Education Association are supporting the “No Kings” protests this weekend, and teachers union critics explained why at the Moms for Liberty National Summit Friday. “To be clear about what the teachers unions do, you guys see the ‘No Kings’ protests going on—did you know that the NEA and the AFT are funding those?” Ryan Walters, former Oklahoma State superintendent and CEO of the Teacher Freedom Alliance, said on stage at the Moms for Liberty summit. “They are funding to fight President [Donald] Trump.” Meanwhile, he said, “I can’t applaud Trump enough” for aiming to get rid of the federal Department of Education. Walters and his fellow panelists explained that the teachers unions have used their position of influence to push radical leftist ideologies such as critical race theory—which teaches that America is institutionally racist—and transgender ideology, and they oppose efforts to reform education that would return it to the basics of reading, writing, and arithmetic. The teachers unions defend critical race theory and transgender ideology as efforts that promote diversity and inclusion. The American Federation of Teachers appears as a partner of the “No Kings” protests Saturday. Organizers claim to have 2,400 protests scheduled across the country. The National Education Association’s advocacy website encourages people to participate in “No Kings Day” protests, to “join communities across the nation to make clear to President Trump that America has no kings and the power belongs to the people.” Texas Gov. Greg Abbott plans to deploy the National Guard in response to what he called a “planned Antifa demonstration.” Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy warned that agitators with Antifa may be embedding themselves in the protests. Neither the American Federation of Teachers nor the National Education Association immediately responded to The Daily Signal’s request for comment about funding the protests. Aaron White, CEO of the Freedom Foundation, explained at the Moms for Liberty National Summit that both unions spend large amounts of money on political activism, despite that their ostensible purpose is to represent teachers. “That money is far less significant in representing teachers than it is in their political agenda,” he said. White argued that much of the money goes “to radical liberal Democrats who will go in and raise taxes,” while “the rest of it they spend on lavish salaries and benefits packages.” According to federal records, between July 1, 2022, and June 30, 2023, the American Federation of Teachers spent only 27.4% of its funds on “representational activities” such as negotiating for better salaries and benefits for member teachers. It spent 13.8% of its funds—$46.9 million—on political activities and another 2.1% on “contributions, gifts, and grants,” much of which went to left-leaning activist groups. Another 19.7% went to overhead, administration, and employee benefits. During the same period, the National Education Association spent only 19% of its members’ dues on “representational activities” while it spent 4.6%—$2.9 million—on political activities and another 2.8% on political contributions. Much of the union’s money went to overhead, union administration, and benefits (34%). These unions form part of the apparatus supporting left-leaning activist groups that influenced policy in the Biden administration. Corey DeAngelis, a school choice advocate and senior fellow at the American Culture Project, noted that the National Education Association’s “Teacher of the Year” said in July that “I realized how deeply political our profession had always been.” “She said that her job as a teacher, of all things, is deeply political and always has been,” DeAngelis noted. “If that’s not free advertising for homeschooling, I don’t know what is.” “There’s no bigger enemy to parents, there’s no bigger enemy to good teachers, and there’s no bigger enemies to this country than the teachers union,” Walters, head of the Teachers Freedom Alliance, said. “The teachers union has weaponized its money and its power to try to turn our schools into Marxist indoctrination centers.” “The Teachers Freedom Alliance says to teachers, ‘We not only want you to leave [the union], we’ve got your back. Go make the classrooms great again,'” he added. The post Why Are America’s Teachers Unions Backing the ‘No Kings’ Protests? appeared first on The Daily Signal.

How Did the Swastika Flag Wind Up in Rep. Taylor's Office?

The impending election of Marxist Democrat Zohran Mamdani as mayor of New York City is part of a dangerous trend in the U.S., House Speaker Rep. Mike Johnson (R-LA) warned Thursday. “It’s easy to run as a Communist and a Socialist,” Speaker Johnson told Host Laura Ingraham in a Fox News Channel interview, explaining that all you have to do is promise to give voters everything they want. “What they never stop to explain is that you have to surrender your freedom in exchange for the government taking control of your life,” Johnson cautioned: “The Founders knew that a government that can give you everything can take it all away. “And that’s what’s going to happen. They’re going to ruin the largest city in America (New York) in a very short period of time.” “Every time socialism has been tried on the world stage, throughout history, it has fallen into abject failure,” Johnson said, noting that Marxist ideology led to the murder of tens of millions of innocent people during the 20th Century. Democrats who support Marxism in the U.S. are ignorant of how destructive it is, Johnson said: “They do not study history and they don’t know the dangers of what it is they’re trying to espouse. But, we do. “And, this is going to happen. Mamdani, it appears by the polls, is going win the mayor of New York City.” “People are in panic mode, people who understand how politics and reality work. And it’s a dangerous trend,” Johnson said, noting that a mass exodus from the city has already begun, in anticipation of Mamdani’s election. “It’s a terrible, dangerous development – and there’s more that’s coming. And, we’ve got to oppose it at every turn,” Speaker Johnson said. “The new leaders of the Democrat Party “are full Marxists,” Johnson said. “You hear how vapid their ideology is, what empty suits they are - but, they are the leaders of the party. They are dragging the rest of the Old Guard, the old party leaders, around by the nose and, they are subservient to their wishes.” “And that’s why everybody around the country is feeling such pain right now: because of this nonsense,” Johnson said, referencing the ongoing government shutdown being perpetrated by Senate Democrats who are afraid to buck their Marxist leaders.

The walls are closing in!Celebrities are turning up the rhetorical heat on President Donald Trump, proving once more that they didn’t learn their lesson from the last election.Director Paul Thomas Anderson’s film oozes Oscar-season buzz. It’s a celebration of political violence and a mash note to anti-ICE attacks.“Hacks” star Jean Smart just gave a shout-out to the latest No Kings rally, suggesting that President Trump is a dictator in waiting, or Hitler or, well, fill in the blank.The current resident of the White House thinks that he has everybody fooled, but he has made it abundantly clear that he admires dictators and wishes to be one. And ironically this country was founded on a rebellion against having a king. So it’s ironic. The most patriotic thing that you can do is say, "No Kings." A king does not belong in the United States of America. So please, find a peaceful No Kings protest near you.Peaceful? Now, that’s funnier than any “Hacks” subplot.Not to be outdone, former D-list doyenne Kathy Griffin joined the conspiracy mob in alleging that Donald Trump didn’t win the 2024 election fair and square. Her proof? Hey, who needs proof?Griffin used Trump’s former bestie, Elon Musk, to explain the theft.Anyway, he's a, but he's a professional Nazi in my humble opinion, and he's good friends with Trump, and at one point, I don't know if you remember, but he was giving out million-dollar checks to people if they would vote for Trump. That's illegal. It's unconstitutional and illegal, so that was happening, and the fact that Trump won all seven swing states, which has never happened in the history of the U.S., makes it all very suspicious to me.It's Fake News with a heaping helping of hysteria. At least no heads were severed along the way.And then there’s singer/actress Renee Rapp. The “Mean Girls 2.0” star shouted “F**k ICE” and “F**k Trump” at a recent concert.Gosh, Trump better resign before it's too late …Squander lustA million dollars here, a million dollars there, and all of a sudden, you’re talking about real money.That’s Hollywood accounting, and it explains why Warner Bros. won’t sweat losing a cool $100 million on “One Battle After Another.” That’s despite endless fawning media coverage and a star-studded cast including Leonardo DiCaprio, Benicio del Toro and Sean Penn.Director Paul Thomas Anderson’s film oozes Oscar-season buzz. It’s a celebration of political violence and a mash note to anti-ICE attacks.Liberal film critics love it, of course, but the inconvenient truth is that the movie will lose a fortune at the box office. The budget is just too big, and normie moviegoers would rather watch “Black Phone 2.” At least that film understands that the franchise’s child-killer, played by Ethan Hawke once more, is the bad guy and we’re meant to root against him.For most companies, a loss like that would be catastrophic, but movie studios are perfectly fine with that kind of a fiscal gut punch. Why? The film is going to earn endless Oscar nominations and countless awards-season hosannas, and it’s the perfect Resistance storytelling.Remember, it’s show "business," with an asterisk …RELATED: Hollywood goes full antifa with 'One Battle After Another' Warner Bros. PicturesHamas helpersWho knew there were adults in the room within the Hollywood community? Paramount recently punched back against nearly 4,000 stars blacklisting Israel-linked projects. Now, it’s Warner Bros.’ turn:Our policies prohibit discrimination of any kind, including discrimination based on race, religion, national origin, or ancestry. We believe a boycott of Israeli film institutions violates our policies. While we respect the rights of individuals and groups to express their views and advocate for causes, we will continue to align our business practices with the requirements of our policies and the law.It's no accident that the announcement came after the Trump administration’s historic peace agreement in the Middle East.

The "West Wing” alum raged against ICE and the GOP in toto this week, out-hyperbolizing even “The View” crew.“I am living in a world where we have internment camps. … And the thing that's very upsetting to me right now, and we're giving these internment camps funny names.
