Print this article State Department officials compared China to Nazi Germany on Wednesday, saying the Communist nation "is in a league of its own when it comes to human rights violations." "China intensified its campaign of detaining Muslim minority groups at record levels" last year, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said in a briefing on the release of the 2018 Country Reports on Human Rights Practices. China has been brutally repressing Uighurs and other Muslims, forcing them into re-education camps reminiscent of Mao Zedong's Cultural Revolution. The regime has made a police state of the minorities' home of Xinjiang, a...

According to the far-left outlet’s own fact sheet, CNN is currently available in 90 million households. This means 90 million people pay money to CNN every month even though fewer than one million on average actually watch CNN. The game is rigged, folks. And it is especially rigged against those normal Americans who on a daily basis are bullied, taunted, discriminated against, demonized, threatened, and menaced by CNN. You see, it works like this… Even if you don’t watch CNN, you are still forced to pay for CNN. It is called a carriage fee, and every month you subsidize this...

There was a Media Matters protest outside Fox News today that included a former Obama spokesperson and a former Obama speechwriter. The Brock-Podesta-Soros Media Matters pawns itself off as a nonprofit and we subsidize them. They are clearly nothing more than a Fox and Republican attack machine. They are an arm of the far-left Democrat Party. Tucker addressed that illegality last night on his show. On the podcast “Pod Save America,” former Obama spokesperson Tommy Vietor, as well as former Obama speechwriters Jon Favreau and Jon Lovett, encouraged listeners to attend the protest. “They’re having a protest outside of Fox...

Last week, Bloomberg reported that the Trump administration is drawing up demands for Germany and Japan — and eventually other countries — to pay for the costs of hosting U.S. troops in their countries, plus an additional 50% or more. Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY), who sits on the Armed Services Committee and is the head of the House Republican Conference, criticized the Trump administration's move, calling it “absolutely devastating.” “We benefit tremendously” by stationing soldiers in South Korea, Japan, Germany and other countries, Cheney said on NBC’s “Meet the Press” on Sunday. “The notion that we are now going to...

Army to name new attack helicopter after Elizabeth Warren Published 12 hours ago on March 13, 2019 By Jim Bowie FORT RUCKER, Ala. — The U.S. Army will honor Elizabeth Warren and her Native American ancestry with the latest addition to its helicopter fleet, the AH-68 Warren, sources confirmed today. The Warren will join the Black Hawk, Kiowa, Apache, and Lakota in the Army’s impressive legacy of combat aircraft named after Native American tribes. The Warren conquered its two chief competitors, the AH-67 Redskin and V-23 Columbus, to win the Army contract. “The Redskin just offended too many white people,...

[Catholic Caucus] Seminary Board Blasts Cupich for Lack of Transparency Board Letter: 'While talk about transparency and accountability is a noble goal, here there was neither' CHICAGO (ChurchMilitant.com) - The advisory board of St. Joseph College Seminary is advocating to keep the undergraduate seminary open. In January, Cdl. Blase Cupich, the archbishop of Chicago, shocked Chicagoans by announcing he was closing the newly renovated St. Joseph College Seminary on the campus of Loyola University. Cupich cited the low enrollment numbers as the cause and said seminarians wishing to continue their studies could transfer to St. John Vianney College Seminary at the University of...

My buddy brought this to my attention. He told me this was the foreshadowing of AOC from Saturday Night Live six years ago. As my buddy said to me- its more than ironic SNL continue to bash President Trump yet don't resurrect this character.

It's well known that emergency medical care can be shockingly expensive, but one Los Gatos clinic took things criminally far with a string of fraudulent bills, prosecutors said Wednesday.

President Donald Trump and his allies weren't shy about using the specter of impeachment during the 2018 midterm campaign to rally the President's core supporters to the polls. And for their 2020 campaign, they were prepared to use the real thing. With House Democrats newly in the majority and the prospects of impeachment surging, Trump and his political allies -- while certainly not hankering for it -- have eyed the potential political upside: using a Democratic impeachment as a powerful foil to galvanize Republicans in droves to re-elect Trump. Several of the President's political advisers, preparing for a re-election campaign...

Remember kids… Vice President Mike Pence is not a decent human being. And when you find such an unacceptable cullion hanging around your workplace, what do you do? You give him (or her) the boot. That’s precisely what Speaker Nancy Pelosi has done, kicking the Veep out of his office at the House and taking the space back for herself. (NPR)

FULL TITLE: This is CNN: Network links to its own 2017 story disproving narrative Trump called Charlottesville neo-Nazis ‘very fine people’ Once again, the 24-7-365 #TrumpHate network, CNN, has exposed its own bias against the president, and in a rather tone-deaf manner. In recent weeks, the network has refused to correct, retract, or apologize for repeated false claims that POTUS Donald Trump referred to neo-Nazis as “very find people” during remarks about the 2017 riots in Charlottesville, Va. However, on Tuesday CNN linked to its own report that, at the time, accurately noted that the president used “very fine people”...

David Remnick, editor of the New Yorker, asked staff writer Lawrence Wright to “explain Texas.” Why would Wright choose to live there? “I hope this book,” says Wright, “answers the question.” But the book—God Save Texas: A Journey into the Soul of the Lone Star State—does not explain Texas. It does not even explain why Lawrence Wright of the New Yorker chooses to live in Texas, a question of limited interest. It is not, as it proposes to be, a meditation on the culture and politics of Texas and their influence on the wider American scene. It is an overflowing...

Yes, there are actually parents who are dumbfounded and confused when their five-year-old children don’t take to wearing fake penises, or tucking their real ones. A watchdog group called 4thWaveNow is raising awareness online about “the ever-accelerating medical and media fascination with the phenomenon of ‘transgender children.'” This week, the group released screenshots from a private Facebook group called Parents of Transgender Children, which expose multiple conversations surrounding the practices of “packing“ and “tucking“ for supposedly transgender children as young as five years old. Some conversations involve parents expressing confusion at their child’s lack of interest in prosthetic penises. “My...

FULL TITLE: Lisa Page Testimony Reveals The Strzok Plot To Trap Trump’s Political Amateur Son-In-Law Jared Kushner The Lisa Page testimony to Freedom Caucus investigators — who got her to sing like a canary — provides new details about the well-documented “Crossfire Hurricane” plot to trap Jared Kushner, President Trump’s inexperienced son-in-law who inexplicably runs point on policy in the Trump White House. As the plot falls apart, it’s important for President Trump to know that Jared Kushner was the target of all this nonsense, which prolonged the plot against all of Trump’s people. That plot actually threatens to put...

In the Gospel for Wednesday (Wednesday of the First Week of Lent) the Lord says, This generation is an evil generation; it seeks a sign, but no sign will be given it, except the sign of Jonah (Lk 11:30).
