With a focus on Major League Baseball’s All-Star Game and the season well underway, the fact that some stadiums are at greater fan capacity while others are still heavily restricted naturally raises questions. MLB announced that the 2021 season would begin with fans returning to the stands despite some fears over the continuing coronavirus pandemic. Though, what form that return is taking differs from team to team and stadium to stadium. Ahead of the season, the league told each team that they should craft their at-home attendance policies by first taking local government requirements as their guide.

It's no wild analogy, that my sister's drug experimentation infected me, harmed me, was based on specious claims of benefits. The details align perfectly with the insanity of Anthony Fauci's 'Gain of Function' virus research, and equally with aspects of the original atomic bomb.In the documentary 'The Day After Trinity' https://youtu.be/Vm5fCxXnK7Y , a plausible catastrophic outcome of Manhattan Project research was that the whole atmosphere might ignite - it was called 'universal conflagration'. Einstein wasn't an atomic expert, his Manhattan Project salesmanship to FDR was uninformed rhetoric, Hitler had no realistic industrial-military economic expectation of getting the Bomb, and it's...

More and more, Gen Z black voters are questioning why blacks should be loyal to the Democrat Party that they see as severely lacking in appeal. ========================================================================== According to a report at Politico, many of these young blacks born after 1990 are wondering just why they should be all fired up about the Democrats when every single Democrat-run city in America is an absolute, bankrupt mess. Certainly, blacks in the U.S. are still holding onto the outmoded idea that the Democrat Party is the “party of civil rights,” a false notion that gained steam in the 1970s. But things seem...

A columnist for The Nation defended 2020 presidential candidate Joe Biden from allegations of sexual assault by his former senate staffer Tara Reade, saying, “I would vote for Joe Biden if he boiled babies and ate them.” Columnist Katha Pollitt would vote for Joe Biden even if she believed Reade’s allegations of sexual assault, she wrote in her Wednesday column. “Fortunately, I don’t have to sacrifice morality to political necessity,” she wrote.

Williams claimed Trump was trying to stoke “populist prairie fire” against Democratic governors “who so far have been adept in handling this virus.” After devoting the first portion of the 2:00 p.m. hour to playing a lengthy clip of New York Governor Andrew Cuomo attacking the President, Williams justified the decision: “So, Katy Tur, we should note we don’t often air 11 straight minutes of an event that took place earlier. But this is the...

The Netflix sitcom The Ranch was once called a “conservative” sitcom, but as it ends its run this month, the series has veered left with an anti-gun message among other virtue signaling fare. When it debuted in 2016, the streaming sitcom starring Ashton Kutcher and Sam Elliott brought reviewers to note that swipes at Barack Obama, support for guns and hunting, love of tractors and cars, and criticism of global warming, made it more conservative than most TV shows. “Me. I’m sick of it. I’m sick of people saying they need an assault weapon to defend themselves, and I’m sick...

For The New York Times economic scene section for March 31, David Leonhardt came across with one of the most amazing admissions about Obama that I've ever seen in the Times. Namely that Barack Obama is just like Hitler. Now, many of you may be solemnly shaking your head in agreement, but in so doing you would be missing why the Times was comparing Obama to Hitler. You see, Leonhardt didn't mean it as an insult. He was saying that it was a good thing that Barack was being like Hitler at least in an economic sense.

What's a disgusting sex predator like far-left Democrat Rep. Katie Hill doing in Congress? Naked pictures of the congresswoman have turned up, first at RedState, and now beyond, showing Hill sitting there with her giant naked thighs spread out, buck naked in some hotel room, stroking her very, very, young submissive female staffer's hair like an alpha orangutuan, It was a picture which must have been taken by someone else, perhaps the man, legislative director Graham Kelly, in the reported Hill "throuple" relationship, (we get to learn so many new words with these freshmen Democrats), or else her husband, who's...
