The U.S. Navy recently started construction on a U.S. Naval Ship (USNS) that will be named after child rapist Harvey Milk, some of whose victims committed suicide. Milk’s main claim to fame is that in 1977, he became the first openly homosexual elected official in U.S. history by winning a seat on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors. He was elected with strong with help from the notorious “People’s Temple” cult of mass-murderer Jim Jones, who forced his followers and their children to drink poison in Guyana as part of a mass suicide.

Joe Biden is losing his cool over the chilly results he’s poised to deliver tonight in New Hampshire. In fact, he’s not even going to be there when the bad news is delivered. But before Biden attempted to scramble out of town and to what he hopes is friendlier territory, he first spoke to reporters. Biden said Hillary Clinton lost several primaries, so a drubbing today doesn’t mean much. “We’re fighting for every vote we have here and then I’m getting on a plane, heading down there, doing a little rally in South Carolina to get going, then getting in...

Polls have closed in New Hampshire and Bernie Sanders has taken the lead in early results as polls showed him the favorite heading into the first-in-the-nation primary. With 15 per cent of precincts reporting, Sanders was in first place with Pete Buttigieg following and Amy Klobuchar in third. Joe Biden was trailing in fifth place - a shocking placement for the former vice president, who fled the state for South Carolina before the polls closed.

It’s as if the barnyard animals sense the wolf pack circling and approaching ever closer. The latest screeching and squealing noises heard from the corralled Democrats in D.C. are coming from House Judiciary Chairman Jerrold Nadler who sent a letter to Attorney General William Barr expressing “serious concern” about the Department of Justice (DOJ) receiving Biden-Ukraine information from Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani “outside of normal channels.” Nadler’s four-page letter charged that the process by which the DOJ has accepted info from Giuliani “would seem to be a significant departure from traditional channels,” and he demanded answers regarding the DOJ’s new...

Sanders Leads; Buttigieg, Klobuchar Fight For 2nd: 2020 Primary Update: Trump easily wins GOP primary; Yang to end presidential campaign, according to reports; results from around the state.

Results from communities where...

This whole video is just Amir and is just about the corona virus. He has studied the event well, as he does with everything he talks to us about, and he mentions all the factors that many on FR know about that make it dangerous, and repeats the 21-day incubation period, which is now up to 24 days on FR, along with the almost insurmountable problem of the virus being airborne. God bless you, Amir, for drawing attention to this, not to cause alarm but so that we call can do whatever we can to help ourselves and others. And...

Jussie Smollett is facing felony charges in Chicago again -- the special prosecutor just announced an indictment against the actor for the alleged homophobic attack against him last year. A grand jury handed up the new indictment against Jussie on Tuesday. Dan Webb was appointed special prosecutor for the case last summer. We're told he's now facing 6 felony counts for lying to law enforcement. The indictment calls the 6 charges "disorderly conduct," but all 6 involve allegations of lying to cops.

Well, it is 8:30 in the evening of the NH primary. And not ONE thread is even discussing the preliminary results, the exit polls, or the breathless newstalkers latest words. Is it really that lane for the democrats this year?

[Catholic Caucus] Martinsville priest refuses to sign order to silence from the Catholic Diocese of Richmond Father Mark White said he wasn't allowed to review a document read aloud to him by church officials a day after he had met with the bishop. That truce reached last week in a dispute between a Martinsville priest and a Richmond bishop that preserved the priest’s job now appears to have been short-lived.About 24 hours after that meeting last Wednesday, Father Mark White, priest of St. Joseph Catholic Church in Martinsville and St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Church in Rocky Mount, was visited...

Arizona Democrats have filed yet another “assault weapon” ban bill. This one is Senate Bill 1625. At first glance, with two notable stand-outs, it’s pretty much par for the gun-grabbing course; a ban on assaulty-looking guns with grandfathering.,p> But the first notable item is just how inclusive this bill is. All semiautomatic rifles that take detachable magazines would become “assault weapons.” And almost all rifles with fixed magazines of greater than 10-round capacity; that includes your .22LR plinker. That latter part is because of the second notable aspect of the bill; the ban on “large capacity” magazines and the definition...

Q is the result of the sacrifices and commitment of countless patriots to win back our captured country from the Deep State and achieve the transformation President Trump promised in this campaign video. President Trump has said the awakening of the public is key to this transformation. Q describes this awakening as follows: "The Great Awakening ('Freedom of Thought’), was designed and created not only as a backchannel to the public (away from the longstanding ‘mind’ control of the corrupt & heavily biased media) to endure future events through transparency and regeneration of individual thought (breaking the chains of...

I analyze the hysterical media reaction to the extension of the travel ban, and explain why Nigerians agree with President Trump.

Just a thought. But could Joe Biden be faking senility to avoid prosecution for Burisma Quid Pro Quo?
