A Texas Democratic candidate has been arrested for allegedly publishing a series of racist posts against himself using fake social media accounts. Taral Patel, 30, a candidate for county commissioner in Fort Bend, Texas, was charged following an investigation after he claimed that the supporters of his opponent, incumbent Andy Meyers, were making racist insults against him online. Patel claimed on Facebook last year that he and his family were the targets of a online racism.

So much attention this year has been deservedly placed on this November’s all-important presidential contest between Donald Trump and Joe Biden. But there are countless other critical races for House and Senate seats whose outcomes are every bit as important because they will decide how easily President Trump can begin implementing his agenda from the get-go. Enter Colorado: a pivotal state that can decide the makeup of the House this year. In particular, the third congressional district. CD-3 was formerly Rep. Lauren Boebert’s old haunt before redistricting, where she is now running in CD-4. The CD-3 Republican primary race is...

Liberals claim to be in favor of democracy–or, at least, Our Democracy™️–but if someone actually runs against them, they take it as a personal offense. Consider this tweet by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, whom I take as a good exemplar of contemporary liberalism:Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC People everywhere need to understand how disgusting and abnormal it is for special interests to dump nearly $15 million to unseat a member of Congress in a primary.This is corruption. It is a core threat to American democracy. It also fuels Trump.Support Jamaal Bowman.There is nothing shocking about $15 million being spent on a Congressional race. In...

The Biden campaign has recently held two high-profile fundraisers. The first one was in New York City back in April, which brought in $26 million, and the most recent one was in Los Angeles last week, which brought in $28 million. The Biden campaign called these fundraising hauls huge—though they were significantly smaller than Donald Trump's May fundraiser in Florida, and paled in comparison to the $53 million Trump raised in the first 24 hours after the sham verdict in New York City at the end of May.

“Forced obedience to obvious lies is the essence of totalitarianism. It’s the ultimate flex for psychopaths.” — Dr. Toby Rogers. You realize, don’t you, that everything going on around the Ukraine fiasco on the NATO side is completely insane? The folks running the US government — Barack Obama and his witches’ coven — started the whole thing over there in concert with a gang of corporate players (BlackRock, sundry oil-and-gas companies, Haliburton types, arms-makers, bunch of big banks), plus the dastardly WEF for “guidance” (ha!), looking to grab the mineral wealth of Ukraine and, ultimately, of Russia itself. Nice try....

In the age of feminism men are being driven to their deaths. The rounded off Australian figures in this little movie of 6 men a day and 2 women a day lost to suicide have increased to 7 men a day and 2 women. As bad and senseless as suicide it, it is one way in a country like Australia of opposing tyranny. And that makes sense. Sometimes.

During a press conference in Topeka, alongside Deputy Attorney General Fran Oleen and Assistant Attorneys General Kaley Schrader and Melanie Jack, Kobach detailed the allegations lodged against Pfizer. “Pfizer made multiple misleading statements to deceive the public about its vaccine at a time when Americans needed the truth,” said Kobach.

“I believed it was a woman’s place to be sexually harmed by men, that it was natural,” Prisha Mosley told The Washington Post. Mosley was just 14 when a man sexually assaulted her. The rape resulted in a pregnancy that ended in a miscarriage. An already broken girl began to struggle with intense anorexia, anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts. The body into which she was born became like an iron maiden, a box spiked with nails that constantly pierced her psyche from all directions. Then, one day, she was introduced to a panacea, the thing that would, like spring rain,...

On June 12, the Massachusetts House unanimously voted to pass a bill that would allow mothers to sell their newborns, and base parenthood solely on intent. Currently, Massachusetts allows for paid surrogacy and traditional surrogacy, though in cases of traditional surrogacy, the intended parents must legally adopt the baby at birth, which would require a background check. At least one of the intended parents must have a genetic relationship to the child. H. 4672, the “Parentage Equality” bill, would redefine parenthood, changing it from its basis in biology or adoption (as a means of providing a home to a child...

Washington Governor Jay Inslee has announced that state law will require hospitals to commit abortions in emergency situations, in advance of an upcoming Supreme Court decision. The Supreme Court is expected to give a decision in the Moyle v. United States and Idaho v. United States cases in June, which will determine whether or not Idaho emergency room doctors can intentionally end the lives of preborn children by abortion for allegedly “medically necessary” reasons. The Biden Department of Justice (DOJ) previously sued the state of Idaho, arguing that Idaho’s Defense of Life Act violates the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active...

Attorney General Merrick Garland rejected the House of Representatives vote to hold him in contempt of Congress for refusing to let them view the video of President Biden's interview by Special Counsel Robert Hur. "The issue of whether President Biden is guilty of mishandling classified documents has already been resolved by the dismissal of all possible charges on the grounds of prosecutorial discretion," Garland insisted. "There is, therefore, no need for Congress to see the video." Rep. Gary Palmer (R-Ala) said "the issue goes beyond whether the President should be prosecuted for mishandling classified documents. If, as Hur said, Biden...

Don't believe your lyin' eyes.On October 14, 2020, the NY Post broke the story about the Hunter Biden laptop. It became a book entitle "Laptop from Hell" written by Miranda Devine. The Post was savagely attacked. Its account on Twitter was suspended. Anyone (including moi) even mentioning it on Facebook was sanctioned. 52 former intelligence officials lied to America about it. It was repeatedly called "Russian disinformation." The laptop was 100% authentic. Its authenticity was confirmed by an FBI agent during the Hunter Biden trial. Below you can watch 20 minutes of democrats denying it. The NY Times still can't...

Via its institutional mouthpiece, the New York Times, the American and international far Left has laid out its battle plan for the 2024 presidential election and beyond: "The Resistance to a New Trump Administration Has Already Started." Written by a hard-core trained cadre of ideological reporter-editorialists, including Trump frenemy Maggie Haberman, Charlie Savage, Reid J. Epstein, and Jonathan Swan, it is an open declaration of war on the rest of us. In many ways, this is the prequel to Molly Ball's infamous explainer, "The Secret History of the Shadow Campaign That Saved the 2020 Election," which appeared early in 2021:There...

When it comes to voter fraud in America, Michigan leads the way. With the Soros-backed Democrat Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson at the helm, who is arguably the dirtiest Secretary of State in the nation, Michigan could easily become the blueprint for other states on how to steal elections effectively. ... While Democrats used every dirty trick in the book to prevent their opponents from watching them steal the election in 2020, the GOP and Independent poll challengers were able to identify the biggest fraud taking place in plain sight—dirty voter rolls, courtesy of MI SOS Jocelyn Benson. Votes were...
