Mutumba claimed he hadn't been intimate with his 'wife' since the wedding two weeks before because Tumushabe said 'she' was menstruating. . . . But Tumushabe was rumbled when he was arrested or theft of a television set and clothes from his next door neighbours in January. A female police officer carried out a body search on the suspect, thinking Tumushabe was a woman, and found out he was actually a man. Mutumba is said to be 'too devastated' to talk about the incident and needs counselling.

Dr. John Robson investigates the unsound origins and fundamental inaccuracy, even dishonesty, of the claim that 97% of scientists, or "the world's scientists", or something agree that climate change is man-made, urgent and dangerous. LINK DR. JOHN ROBSON, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR John Robson holds a Ph.D. in American History from the University of Texas at Austin and has worked as a historian, policy analyst, journalist and documentary filmmaker for three decades. He has been examining the climate change issue for many years, including both the science and the policy debates.

Profit seeking companies have cured cancer, reversed heart disease, and caused every other advance you can name for the past 100 years of medicine. A tiny fraction of innovation comes out of the NIH or non-profit society grants – and those ideas that are generated would invariably sit on the shelf without the work and investment of profit-seeking venture capitalists and companies guiding the idea through clinical trials, regulatory hurdles, and production. The majority of the profits that provide the incentive for innovators worldwide come from the US, and other healthcare systems piggyback (and rip off) our system to take...

Solemn ceremonies and a protest marked the 250th anniversary Thursday of the massacre in Boston that helped spark the Revolutionary War. A wreath was laid at the grave of the five victims of the fateful conflict, and colonial re-enactors fired their muskets in salute during a morning tribute organized by the Daughters of the American Revolution. The event is the first of a number expected to take place across the country in the coming years to mark the anniversary of the war for independence. In the afternoon, black and Native American activists staged a “death procession” from the massacre site...

Tito's Vodka is warning customers that it can't be used in homemade hand sanitizer formulas because it isn't strong enough. The US is facing a Purell hand sanitizer shortage as demand for the disinfectant soared 1,400 percent amid the coronavirus outbreak. The shortage has led people to make their own homemade versions consisting of vodka, aloe gel and essential oils to keep the fast-spreading virus at bay. However, Tito's Vodka says its brand is not strong enough to be effective in killing germs.

Coronavirus Preparations and What You Can Do

[Catholic Caucus]Mexican Bishops Ban Communion on the Tongue, Citing Coronavirus Fears Faithful Catholics warn order designed to eradicate reverential practice NOGALES, Mexico (ChurchMilitant.com) - For decades, Mexico has been considered one of the most Catholic countries in the world — a nation where, after the government banned the Holy Mass and receiving Communion on the tongue in the 1920s, believers responded by taking up arms and waging a bloody, years-long civil war against regime forces, during which many faithful were tortured or executed for their beliefs. But now, the Conference of the Mexican Episcopate (CEM), the ruling body of bishops, has banned reception of...

Wendell Goler, the former Fox News White House reporter, has died at the age of 70. Goler left the network in December 2014. Goler was a native of Jackson, Michigan, and attended the University of Michigan between 1967 and 1971. Goler joined Fox News the same year the network was founded in 1996. Prior to that, Goler had been a reporter for the Jackson Citizen Patriot, the NBC-owned WRC-AM and the Associated Press, covering the president’s activities. Goler joined the AP in 1981. Goler had been Fox News’ first chief White House correspondent until he left that role in 2011...

A federal judge on Thursday ordered the Department of Justice to hand over to him a copy of the unredacted Mueller report and accused Attorney General William Barr of misrepresenting its findings in the days before it was submitted to Congress last year. Judge Reggie B. Walton, a federal district court judge in Washington, said that he could not reconcile Barr's public comments in April 2019 about the report with the actual findings that former special counsel Robert Mueller outlined. "The inconsistencies between Attorney General Barr’s statements, made at a time when the public did not have access to the...

Schumer refusing to take responsibility. This non-apology is the equivalent of “I’m sorry you feel that way.” He threatened #SupremeCourt Justices. Personally. By name. He should be censured #CensureSchumer https://t.co/D3m0RNtwKy— Josh Hawley (@HawleyMO) March 5, 2020 Schumer: I’m from Brooklyn. We speak in strong language. I shouldn’t have used the words I did, but in no way was I making a threat. I never—never—would do such a thing. And Leader McConnell knows that. And Republicans..manufacturing outrage over these comments know that too.— Chad Pergram (@ChadPergram) March 5, 2020 Another tweet: Senators co-sponsoring @HawleyMO's resolution to censure Schumer for the...

Globalists are declaring war on travel bans and trade restrictions as President Trump tries to stop the spread of the coronavirus in the United States. While the death toll of the coronavirus climbs to more than 3,000 — with now six confirmed deaths in the U.S. — the World Health Organization (WHO) is standing by its declaration that travel bans must be ended and that trade restrictions should be withheld. “Travel bans to affected areas or denial of entry to passengers coming from affected areas are usually not effective in preventing the importation of cases but may have a significant...

What Super Tuesday tells us is that a lot of Democrats would rather risk losing to President Trump with Joe Biden than allow a socialist like Bernie Sanders to hijack their party. That’s good for America, but it’s also a treacherous Hail Mary pass for the party. The 77-year-old former vice president showed why, moments after taking the stage in Los Angeles on Tuesday night: He mistook his wife for his sister. “They switched on me,” he tried to explain. He went on to give a good speech about healing the nation, and dutifully kept to the script on his...

Candace Talley, 27, of Sicklerville, Camden County, has been charged with human trafficking and promoting prostitution. Talley was employed as a caseworker by the Delaware County Office of Children and Youth Services for the span of four months in 2017, according to a statement given on Friday by a spokesperson for the office. She is accused of recruiting women as prostitutes, pimping them for a 25% cut of their earnings. Further, Talley allegedly promised to falsify drug test results to ensure a child’s placement with their mother. Delaware County Communications Director Adrienne Marofsky said that upon notification of Talley’s actions...

Sen. Bernie Sanders dismissed the possibility that he and fellow 2020 Democrat Joe Biden could team up for a unity ticket to take on President Trump. “Is it 100% impossible to imagine a unity ticket, despite your differences,” MSNBC host Rachel Maddow asked Sanders on Wednesday. “You mean two old white guys on the ticket?” Sanders said. “Probably not. I think the American people don’t want — one old white guy is probably one too many for some.” A slew of Democratic presidential candidates have dropped out of the race in the last week, leaving Biden and Sanders as the...

One of my regular themes is that Americans are disorderly and disobedient people — gloriously so and dangerously so. People who understand that roll their eyes when, e.g., one of our progressive friends points out how much more frequently Americans kill each other with firearms than do most Europeans or Japanese. Democrats think that means we need more gun control. (And they generally press for the dumbest possible model of gun control: new restrictions on licensed firearms dealers and the people who do business with them, the most law-abiding demographic in the country.) People who have a better handle on...

Flashback to what Led to the Downfall of #Warren2020

Amid the ongoing coronavirus outbreak, Gilead Sciences’ experimental remdesivir has emerged as the most promising candidate against the deadly pathogen. But its patent in China has also drawn some unexpected confusion.The Chinese pharma BrightGene has successfully copied remdesivir, the company said in a disclosure (PDF, Chinese) to China’s Nasdaq-style Star market on Wednesday.What's more, the Suzhou-based firm said it has already mass-produced remdesivir's active ingredient and is in the process of turning it into finished doses. The company’s stock jumped 20% at the news, hitting the daily price move cap allowed on the exchange. BrightGene doesn’t seem to plan to...

Republicans are on a path to flip six congressional seats in California in November based on the primary results. Four additional seats are enough to make GOP candidates competitive. Democrats, on the other hand, don’t seem to have an easy path open to even one seat currently held by a Republican. California as a whole leans left, with Democrats holding 45 of the 53 congressional districts (two are vacant). The March 3 primary results, however, suggests the GOP may heal its loses from the 2018 midterms where Democrats flipped seven seats. The state holds “jungle primaries,” which means both Democrats...
