A backlash looms for President Biden on Super Tuesday, when at least half of the states participating in presidential contests have an “uncommitted” line on their ballot – potentially allowing this week’s far-left voter revolt in Michigan to snowball, experts told The Post. Activists who launched the successful Michigan campaign have their sights on a slew of Super Tuesday primaries next week, including Massachusetts, Minnesota, Colorado, North Carolina, Tennessee, Vermont, Maine and Alabama — all of which have “uncommitted” or write-in slots on their Dem primary ballots. “Biden is not going to duplicate his 2020 coalition,” said veteran Dem strategist...

The controversial ultra-low emission zone was expanded to cover the whole of Greater London this week. Now, the Metropolitan Police has revealed the force received 159 reports of ULEZ cameras being stolen and 351 reports of cameras being damaged between April and August. More than 500 crimes relating to stealing and damaging ULEZ cameras have been committed in the last five months, the Metropolitan Police have revealed. A crime can include more than one offence and the number has almost doubled in the past month because by 1 August, the Met had recorded 288 crimes. The ULEZ was expanded to...

Human urine as the new environmental and climate boogeyman is just the latest scare to get you to stop eating meat. Now when you pee, you are allegedly a human pollution machine that is heating up the planet. The voiding of your bladder must be curtailed for the sake of the planet! So says ‘The Science’! The last several years have seen endless emergency declarations, wars, massive government spending, debt, runaway inflation, supply chain issues, increases in crime, food shortages, no privacy from Big Brother-style government and corporate snooping, skyrocketing energy prices that chip away at car and home ownership,...

(JNS) On the front pages of newspapers around the world, we are now privileged to witness the extraordinary strength of women oppressed by fanatical forms of Islam. In Iran, these women are emerging as our heroines. Young and old, they are willing to expose themselves to imprisonment, violence and potential death in order to achieve liberation. In Iran, they are leading the charge for regime change and thus the end of one of the most evil dictatorships of this century. There is no sign that these women are slowing down. Yesterday, Vida Movahed, who became known worldwide for a...

Rogue security agents from Russia's feared FSB spy agency are feared to be behind the car bombing attack which killed the daughter of Vladimir Putin's Rasputin-esque 'guru' advisor, amid mounting suspicions the Russian president's inner circle is turning on him. There are growing fears in Moscow that the attack on Putin loyalist Alexander Dugin's daughter, Darya Dugina, on Saturday night was conducted by Putin's own loyal agents amid rumours they want to oust the Russian leader from power. Frustration and anger is mounting over Russia's war in Ukraine, with one of Putin's former commanders even branding the president a 'clown'...

Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko might be bracing for a revolt from his own military officers after they recently expressed their opposition to the Russian war in Ukraine. Senior officers from the fifth brigade of the Special Forces warned in an open letter to Lukashenko, who is a close ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, against sending troops to fight in Ukraine, describing that such decision is "pure suicide," the Express reported Saturday. "By entering the war against Ukraine, Belarus will be evicted from the community of civilized states and will be an international outcast for many years to come," the...

Greenie policies have destroyed Sri Lanka and Pakistan, and they destroy pretty much any economy wherever they go. The revolt has now hit the Netherlands. The revolt has now hit the Netherlands.According to RedState:You won’t see it on any of the alphabet networks, but a protest movement is exploding in the Netherlands after the government moved to shut down farms in order to “fight” climate change. The contentious move, pushed by the World Economic Forum, was enacted as part of an EU agreement that seeks to limit the release of nitrogen.This is what becoming ungovernable looks like.🚨🚨⚠️⚠️ The Dutch protesters...

When feminity is defined by the right to destroy your own child, revolt is morally required. When a national anthem is a hollow shell nobody believes, then it should be rewritten not parrotted. When does the cancer of woke government get so bad that patriotism isn't an option? In the Australia I was born in, the answer is now.

China’s Covid Numbers are Manifestly AbsurdThe Wall Street Journal published a piece titled “Shanghai Has Recorded More Than 130,000 Covid Cases—and No Deaths.” Seeing the darkly comic headline, I was excited. Finally, after two years, the WSJ appeared to be calling out the data fraud that was the foundation for this whole sordid experiment in totalitarian virus mitigation, however belatedly.Alas, my excitement was premature. As it turns out, the authors of the article tie themselves into knots to explain China’s data. They even trot out Ryan Tibshirani, co-leader of Carnegie Mellon’s COVID-19 modeling team, to tell us that China’s death...

The Russian war in Ukraine has had immediate repercussions for global food markets given the countries’ role as major exporters of essential agricultural products, such as wheat, sunflower oil, barley and corn, while also affecting perishable foods like fruits and vegetables. As shown in FAO data, the price of basic food products has surged since the invasion of Ukraine after already having followed an upward trend since 2020 over the course of the Covid-19 pandemic. Infographic: The Link Between Soaring Food Prices and Political Instability | StatistaAs Statista’s Katharina Buchholz notes, in the past, similar surges in the price of...

As American workers and businesses struggle with the fallout from the most vicious bout of inflation in 40 years, workers across the US are struggling as wage growth lags behind inflation. For example, federal jobs data released last month showed that wage growth was disappointingly slow, as the YoY growth rate actually declined from January, coming in at just 5.1% (and missing the Wall Street consensus forecast of 5.8%). Since the start of the pandemic, most economists expected near-record numbers of open jobs would force employers to hike wages significantly. And while wages did indeed climb for public-facing workers during...

“The totalitarian path we are unquestionably on has never ended well.” – MP George Robert Christensen Queensland MP George Robert Christensen has called on citizens to rise up against coronavirus lockdown measures and vaccination mandates. He compared governments promulgating such measures to totalitarian regimes responsible for the most horrific atrocities. On Wednesday, Christensen said in parliament that Australian State Premiers are “drunk on power” and “trying to out tyrant each other”. He also noted that non-vaccinated Australians are increasingly “demonized, ostracized, and socially eradicated.” The MP explained that totalitarian regimes responsible for the most heinous atrocities of the Twentieth Century:...

[H/T Watchdog85]Riccardo Bosi, leader of Australia One, gives a warning to Australians. (Youtube.com)"Ladies and Gentlemen of Australia, my name is Riccardo Bosi and I am the National Leader of Australia One.In the coming days, weeks and months, disturbing rumors concerning the governance of our country will begin to circulate. These rumors will appear to be so incredible, so unlikely, and even so ludicrous, that the only sensible response would appear to be to dismiss them out of hand.Some of these rumors will, in time, indeed prove to be false. Unfortunately, some will be true, and be prima facie evidence of...

Something’s about to happen. I can feel it, I can smell it in the air. I woke up early this fine Sunday morning, put the coffee mocha on the stovetop, sat down to peruse the tidings of the world, and took stock. That was when I had the feeling. It feels like a point has been reached; a line in the sand, as it were. That a very large segment of the population, a segment that is far larger than what the elite’s minions claim it to be, has collectively decided that enough is enough. That this collective suicide has...

A new video is circulating that shows angry French shoppers protesting outside of a grocery store that refuses to let them buy food without first showing proof of Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) “vaccination.” The incident occurred just a few weeks after French President Emmanuel Macron decided to force Chinese Virus injection “passports” on the French people, who ever since have been protesting all across their land. While many stores and restaurants throughout France are refusing to go along with Macron’s fascist scheme, some, including the store depicted in the video – you can watch it below – are attempting to starve...

Forty years ago this month, Ronald Reagan signed the Economic Recovery Tax Act, a historic achievement of the national taxpayer revolt that found its conception in California in the early 1970s and ultimately demonstrated the powerful economic success of supply-side tax policy. These pro-taxpayer reforms — also known as Kemp-Roth, for congressional champions Rep. Jack Kemp (R-N.Y.) and Sen. Bill Roth (R-Del.) — significantly cut the top income tax rates from 70 percent to 50 percent, reduced and indexed for inflation business and capital gains, and ushered in more than two decades of unprecedented economic prosperity.

There’s a country where protesting against the government will land you in jail. Or result in detention on trumped-up (no pun intended) charges.Hundreds of Cubans are still detained after anti-government protestsWhere the government will blame the citizens’ unrest on something/anything other than their own malfeasance.Where the government essentially controls the technology that in turn controls your access to the internet and social networks. Yes, hard to believe but there really is a country like that. And then…there’s Cuba. Who, along with Venezuela, has a message for Americans.Posted from: MOTUS A.D.

Oh, that wasn’t embarrassing at all – a couple days after our glorious FBI, fresh from failing to stop several mass murderers it knew about decided to ask the American people to narc on their family members, the Cuban people took to the streets to protest just this type of commie garbage. Great timing. This is the kind of quality work that has led to our ace Inspector Erskines having no idea what the Maddow-loving leftist with the list of Republicans and a rifle was doing at that softball field. Now, it’s not just the FBI encouraging kids to turn-in...

While FASTag was seen as a transformative step to overcome various toll hurdles, the initiative doesn't have everyone's blessings. Ever since, FASTag was made mandatory for vehicles, there have been frequent commotions between locals and toll companies over concession. There has also been a growing demands of locals wanting a toll-free service as another option. However, as such a drastic rule change seems far from simple, it has led to people taking matters into their own hands. Tired of paying toll tax, villagers in coastal Karnataka, used a bulldozer to construct a 'parallel' road to bypass the booth. The residents...
