Joe Biden on Tuesday announced that he has cured cancer from the East Room of the White House.Biden delivered remarks on his administration’s efforts to expand access to mental healthcare (try not to laugh). His entire speech was full of gaffes, lies and bizarre mutterings that reportedly have D.C. Democrats "in a panic" over the 2024 campaign, according to one Axios correspondent. Biden first claimed 100 people died from Covid:This wasn’t just a single verbal stumble either. After saying “over 100 people” died from COVID, Biden then asserts, “That’s 100 empty chairs around the kitchen table.” He never even realized...

A group of young women who play or played professionally on the notoriously-woke U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team (USWNT) were full of braggadocio ahead of a match last week. That is, until they played a bunch of mostly retired men in their 40s from the U.K.After the game, though, suddenly the women were not quite as arrogant about their prowess on the grass. As it happens, the group of retired, older men from the U.K. totally destroyed the team of younger U.S. women with a 12 to 0 final at an independent soccer tournament in North Carolina last Thursday. The...

NASCAR star Bubba Wallace is no stranger to controversy. It’s perhaps that penchant for drama that has turned the 29-year-old Wallace into something of a pro-wrestling villain in the world of NASCAR. Wherever he goes, he’s often greeted with a chorus of boos from fans of the sport. That bubbling ugliness came to a head in North Carolina over the weekend when some of NASCAR’s biggest stars gathered at North Wilkesboro Speedway for the NASCAR Cup Series All-Star Race on Sunday. Before that main event, however, there was the Tyson 250, a NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race on Saturday....

Despite the immoral rot that has set into our society, there was one area of popular culture that was long considered a relative haven for conservatives. Country music, with much of its emphasis on God, family and hard work, has been seen as a safe harbor amid the explicit wickedness that now dominates most of American entertainment. Unfortunately, the CMT Music Awards on Sunday night suggest those days might be over. Singer Kelsea Ballerini’s performance of “If You Go Down (I’m Goin’ Down Too)” featured drag queens as backup dancers amid LGBT “pride” rainbow lights. This was apparently a...

Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) stumped yet another Biden judicial nominee on Wednesday with a basic legal question. During a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing for several judicial nominations, including U.S. Magistrate Judge S. Kato Crews' nomination to serve as a U.S. district court judge, Kennedy asked Crews an elementary question about evidentiary discovery. "Tell me how you analyze a Brady motion," Kennedy asked Crews. In a Brady motion, a defendant compels prosecutors in a criminal case to turn over potentially exculpatory evidence, that is, evidence that would help prove the innocence of the defendant. Brady Motions are central to the...

A Muslim woman has revealed the “rude” question she claims an elderly man asked her at an aquarium. Savannah, who was wearing a black-and-white hijab, claims the man asked her: “Are you dressed up as a penguin?” The woman, who works at the aquarium in Sydney, explained what happened in a video posted on TikTok. “Once he pointed that out, I was thinking ‘do I look like a penguin?’” “I didn’t know what to say, so I was like ‘yeah, I’m a penguin’, cause like I thought he was joking, but he was dead serious.” Savannah says the man...

While total vehicle sales fell in 2022, EV sales grew by a whopping 65%. About 5.8% of the new cars Americans bought last year were electric with roughly 800,000 leaving the lot over the course of the year, according to the Kelley Blue Book. And Cox Automotive is forecasting that EV sales will hit 1 million in the U.S. for the first time in 2023 Widespread discounts and goverment...

A man was arrested for smearing feces on a woman’s face. According to police, the offender laughed and said, “Sh*t happens, haha.” However, once he got to Riker’s Island, one inmate delivered “prison justice” and gave the man’s face a “permanent makeover” that he will have for the rest of his life.Career criminal (and alleged illegal alien) Frank Abrokwa's mugshot New Yorkers, who are accustomed to violent crime, were outraged over the video footage of a man smearing human feces on a woman’s face in an unprovoked rush-hour attack inside a Bronx subway station.

You think you’ve heard it all with the latest potential spycraft, but you haven’t heard anything yet. NORAD hasn’t ruled out space aliens.That’s what Gen. Van Herck said. We have the tape.US F-16 jets shot down another unknown object over Lake Huron today. The Pentagon said they have not ruled out extraterrestrial activity. “I haven’t ruled out anything at this point,” said Gen. Glen D. Van Herck. The UFOs not being balloons would be crazy enough, but things get even weirder when you hear a top US general admit that we don’t even know what is keeping these objects in...

by Becca LondonThe NFL played the divisive so-called "Black National Anthem" before Super Bowl LVII on Sunday night.Left-wing "Influencer" and “Victoriously Aware” actress/author Sheryl Lee Ralph sang the anthem. The NFL announced it would be playing the “Black National Anthem” (their words) as “a prominent part of all big league events,” including the Super Bowl, NFL Playoffs, NFL Draft, and NFL Kickoff game. But to its credit, FOX Sports did not identify the song as the Black National Anthem. Instead, they introduced it by its name, “Lift Every Voice and Sing.” The woke league plays the song to reinforce its...

Clips from the classic children’s TV show ‘Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood’ have resurfaced, and are making the rounds on social media. The clips are "triggering" people on the left because what Rogers calmly and confidently states goes against the current progressive ideology of "transgenderism."In 2023, it’s easy to forget that the liberal view on this issue was considered far outside the mainstream not so long ago. What the generational icon Fred Rogers says in these videos is still the view held by most Americans, despite the efforts of the media and Hollywood to normalize it.FOX News reports: Resurfaced ‘Mister Rogers’ video...
