    The Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact was a document that became the "last prelude" before the outbreak of World War II. After 80 years, we’ll try again to look back into the past and remember how it all happened. At the end of June 1939, negotiations on the normalization of relations between the Soviet Union and Germany began. In July, there was the talk of a trade agreement and a plan to improve relations between countries, which included political rapprochement. During a meeting with the military on August 14, Adolf Hitler announced his intention to start a war with Poland, since "UK and...

    A mass murderer known as the “I-95 killer,” who spent the majority of 1994 targeting gay men -- including a Navy World War II veteran -- ate three burgers, fries and bacon before he was executed late Thursday in Florida. Gary Ray Bowles, 57, was pronounced dead at 10:58 p.m. Thursday evening after receiving a lethal injection at Florida State Prison in Starke, the office of Gov. Ron DeSantis, a Republican, said. Bowles had already eaten his last meal by 3 p.m. that afternoon, prison officials told WJXT. The U.S. Supreme Court rejected a last-minute appeal filed by Bowles’ attorneys...

    Bandaged, bruised and cut up, a woman who was stabbed in a brutal attack that killed her sister talks. Meanwhile, police are zeroing in on the killer, who they identified Thursday morning. “A full 13 or 14 girls came out from across the street,” stabbing victim Tayshawn Layton said. “You know when new girls come to the block and they just don’t like nobody kind of thing? It’s one of those things. They just don’t like nobody.” Layton says the girls wanted to fight over a neighborhood dispute. The 28-year-old says she still remembers her sister’s scream from the all-out...

  • Gabbard Victimized by DNC's Dubious Debate Criteria

    Real Clear Politics ^ | Aug 23 2019 | Michael Tracey
    Tulsi Gabbard is on the verge of being excluded from the next Democratic presidential debate on the basis of criteria that appear increasingly absurd. Take, instance, her poll standing in New Hampshire, which currently places Gabbard at 3.3% support, according to the RealClearPolitics average as of Aug. 20. One might suspect that such a figure would merit inclusion in the upcoming debates -- especially considering she’s ahead of several candidates who have already been granted entry, including Cory Booker, Amy Klobuchar, Beto O’Rourke, and Andrew Yang. But the Democratic National Committee has decreed that the polls constituting this average are...

    NEW YORK — Chinese drug traffickers had some advice for American buyers of fentanyl: Let us ship it to you by regular mail. It might be slower than FedEx or UPS, but the opioid is much more likely to reach its destination through the U.S. Postal Service. These cyber drug dealers wrote their U.S.-based customers — in emails later uncovered by federal investigators — that private delivery companies electronically tracked packages, allowing the easy identification of mail from suspect addresses and creating a bright trail connecting sellers and buyers of illegal fentanyl. The Postal Service for years did not institute...

    The professional football league is about to start its new season soon, and you know what that means — MORE POLITICAL LECTURES! (Okay, fantasy football, but still…) While some are still bleating about Colin Kaepernick not playing the league is still dealing with the fallout from his protesting. With ratings dropping, and discontent between ownership and activist-minded athletes, one solution thought upon was the creation of a social justice committee, comprised of owners and players. This committee would address and influence any number of social causes. It was recently announced that one member would be stepping down, Miami Dolphins owner...
  • Attorney For Epstein’s Alleged Victims Says Prison Source Claims Pedophile Was Murdered

    The lawyer for three of Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged victims says he has been told by a “prison source” that convicted pedophile was murdered. “Spencer Kuvin, who previously predicted that Epstein would not live to see his trial, alleges that an anonymous prison worker contacted him to say it was ‘highly unlikely’ the 66-year-old killed himself,” The Daily Mail reports. According to The Sun, Kuvin said he “received a call from a supervisor at the MCC, which is the jail that Mr Epstein was held.” “The first words out of his mouth to be honest were, ‘Don’t believe what you are...

    Laura Loomer ^ | 08-23-2019 | Alicia Powe
    “Hate-filled anti-Semitic” Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) is being sued for $2 million after the freshman congresswoman attacked investigative reporter Laura Loomer during a campaign event in 2018. The conservative non-profit Freedom Watch and its general counsel Larry Klayman, a former federal prosecutor, filed the complaint on behalf of Loomer on Friday, charging Tlaib with assault and battery and religious discrimination. Tlaib, who adamantly supports boycotting Israel and has been repeatedly slammed by President Donald Trump for “hating Jews,” is seen assaulting Loomer, a female Jewish journalist, during a rally during her Congressional run.

    On Thursday’s “All In” on MSNBC, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) outright admitted to host Chris Hayes a federal government takeover of energy production would be required by his plan to combat climate change. Hayes raised the possibility of an extension of some form of the Tennessee Valley Authority. Sanders responded by saying it would require government-manufactured electricity “from solar and from wind and from other sustainable energies.” Partial transcript as follows:

    The critical spread between the 10-year Treasury yield and the 2-year Treasury yield inverted Friday after President Donald Trump characterized China President Xi Jinping as an “enemy” and ordered American companies to steer clear of trade with Beijing. The president tweeted Friday morning that he was ordering “our great American companies” to “immediately start looking for an alternative to China, including bringing your companies HOME and making your products in the USA.”

    A fatal so-called 'zombie' disease swiftly spreading in the United States and Canada among deer, elk and moose might put humans at risk if they eat diseased venison. Chronic wasting disease causes elk and deer to stop eating and behave in confused ways as their brains are turned into sponges by abnormal proteins. The slowly incubating disease, which leaves microscopic holes in an animal's brain, is caused by prions. They are the same rogue proteins that caused bovine spongiform encephalopathy, or mad cow disease, in Britain in the 1980s. About 200 people in the Britain and Europe died of prion-based...

The 86-year-old's hand was held by the Marshall as she walked up the stairs into a private residence on the Upper East Side after her appointment at the Howard Laboratory at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Hospital on Thursday.

    Esso Club, employees were struggling to secure a tent to the ground during the storm. Balogh started filming and was astounded when seconds later the strong winds physically swept two people off of their feet. The winds flung a man up in the air higher than the roof of the Esso Club and threw him on the side of the building. As the man, Samuel Foster, released the tent leg he was holding onto, he ended up hitting the gutter, followed by an abrupt landing, Balogh’s video shows.
