The North Korean regime has so far refused to confirm any cases of the virus within the country, although South Korean media has reported that several people have already died. North Korea’s habitual lack of honesty has made gauging its concern difficult, but sources in Pyongyang who spoke to RFA’s Korean Service claimed that the 'Mt. Paektu Prize Sports Festival' and the 'February Spring Arts Festival', both of which are held on Kim’s birthday were canceled as preventative measures...... canceling the Mt. Paektu Prize Sports Festival is akin to canceling the Super Bowl in the United States, with the events...

Conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh sees evidence that his 2008-spawned “Operation Chaos” strategy is alive and well and at work in multiple Super Tuesday primary states...“Operation Chaos is more widespread than simply in North Carolina,” said Rush. As evidence, Limbaugh cited a report from a Washington Post columnist, who tweeted: “I was at an event last night where an experienced TX analyst said the 5% of the TX Dem early vote was from people who had voted in the Republican primary in the past four statewide elections.”

There are many compelling reasons to conclude that SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, is not nearly as deadly as is currently feared. But COVID-19 panic has set in nonetheless. You can’t find hand sanitizer in stores, and N95 face masks are being sold online for exorbitant prices, never mind that neither is the best way to protect against the virus (yes, just wash your hands). The public is behaving as if this epidemic is the next Spanish flu, which is frankly understandable given that initial reports have staked COVID-19 mortality at about 2–3 percent, quite similar to the 1918...

In this informative video, Reid Henrichs of Valor Ridge discusses "instructors" who compromise on the Bill of Rights and their descent into irrelevancy. If they have a problem with me or what I say in this video, they are more than welcome to come to Valor Ridge and meet me and I can show them just how incompetent, unskilled, and ignorant they are when it comes to firearms via some simple marksmanship tests and tasks. But I doubt they have the courage or motivation to truly see what they really are. 5 minute video

First ladies don’t kiss and tell. A racy “New York” magazine cover showing Melania Trump smooching a Big Apple firefighter in the wake of 9/11 has been unearthed nearly two decades later. At the time of the photo shoot in 2002 — meant to be reminiscent of the iconic V-J Day smooch between a sailor and a nurse in 1945 — Trump was a little-known model named Melania Knauss who had been hired to pose on the cover of the publication’s Valentine’s Day “Singles” issue, according to New York. Knauss — who at the time was dating Donald Trump, then...

ROME - On any given day, Pope Francis’s point-man for migrants has a stacked inbox on his desk: From coordinating the launch of a papal document on the Amazon region to urging bishops’ conferences across Europe to help asylum seekers. Yet Jesuit Cardinal Michael Czerny, Under-Secretary of the Migrant sand Refugees Section of the Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development - an office that answers directly to the pope - has something else keeping him up at night: “The challenge of seeking to engage with truth in spite of the falsehoods that spread so rapidly in modern social media.” “A...

St. Louis’ KSDK reported Monday that Clarke went out for a run near her home; when she returned, her cell phone was missing. Tracking it with Find My iPhone to her neighbor’s backyard, she went to get it, and told her neighbor, “I know you did this and I’m calling the police!” At that point the neighbor, whom KSDK describes only as a “6-foot teen,” attacked her. “He knocked me down, pulling my hair, kicking,” Clarke recounted.

Francis Calls for Participation in ‘Laudato Si’ Week This May Pope Francis has renewed his urgent appeal to take care of God’s gift of creation. Saying the earth no longer forgives, Francis expressed this in a video message to the world’s Catholics for Laudato Si’ week, May 16-24, 2020, for the fifth anniversary of the encyclical on the environment’s publication.

Moscow, March 3, Interfax - The inclusion of the reference to God in the Constitution is addressed to all religious denominations and does not encroach on atheists' views, Russian Human Rights Commissioner Tatyana Moskalkova said. "Today, the society's demand for the strengthening of the moral foundations and everything that is associated with the concepts of justice and good and evil has a special value for the modern times," Moskalkova told journalists on Tuesday. "Perhaps, the appeal to faith and the moral foundations is worthy of attention, especially as there is only one God," she said. "It is a call to...

While some in the media spent much of Super Tuesday reveling in Joe Biden's awakening from political death, they entirely missed the untold story of Super Tuesday: President Donald Trump's record-breaking vote counts and turnout. Despite being an uncontested incumbent, President Trump managed to break several turnout and vote-count records in blue states and key swing states. In Vermont and Minnesota, Trump's vote totals beat every past incumbent's total in the last four decades. In Maine, the president's vote total bested every primary candidate's total since before President Ronald Reagan. In Massachusetts, the story was similar, with Trump aggregating a...

Senate Republicans are planning to release an interim report on their probe into Ukrainian natural gas company Burisma and the role former Vice President Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden may have played in helping the company evade investigations by sitting on the company’s board, according to a report. Senate Homeland Security Committee Chairman Ron Johnson (R-WI) told reporters on Wednesday he is likely to release that report within one to two months, according to Politico. “These are questions that Joe Biden has not adequately answered,” Johnson told reporters. “And if I were a Democrat primary voter, I’d want these questions...

Sen. Bernie Sanders, battered from his defeat in many Super Tuesday contests, warned President Barack Obama not to endorse Joe Biden, Obama’s former vice president who is now running neck and neck with Sanders for the Democratic nomination. “I have not the slightest doubt that there is enormous pressure on President Obama to jump into this race and support Joe Biden,” Sanders said during a press conference about the status of his campaign. Sanders told reporters he backed Obama’s pledge to support the Democrat who wins the nomination and his private assurances that he would not get involved in the...
