A retired federal administrative law judge from Mercer County pleaded guilty Friday to a charge of buying an assault rifle for his boyfriend, a North Side felon described by the FBI as obsessed with Nazis and mass shootings. Karl Alexander, 78, who splits his time between Pittsburgh and Grove City, admitted to lying on a federal firearm form in buying an AR-15 for Dennis Alan Riggs, 50, of Troy Hill, who was arrested on illegal gun charges in January after a raid on his house that turned up seven guns among portraits of Hitler, swastikas and Nazi banners. Riggs can't...

The father of Missouri's first coronavirus patient disobeyed quarantine and went to a school dance with his other daughter on Saturday evening, officials said.

It appears to me that the outbreak of the coronavirus is the fault of lax pathogen containment procedures on the part of the Chinese government at minimum. This is only a general theory that I've been able to piece together from various podcasts but it seems to make sense given the facts. The Coronovirus or its immediate predecessor was CREATED in 2015 by an international project in which both the United Stated and China were participants. The head Chinese researcher whose name I have only heard and have not read (I am not very good at spelling Chinese names even...

Google and its subsidiary, YouTube, are state actors. The attorneys for PragerU and others could not prove that because they are not familiar with the industry, especially its technical side. The Obama Administration has delegated to Google (together with Facebook, Twitter, Microsoft, and Netflix) "powers traditionally exclusively reserved to the State" and “traditionally associated with sovereignty” (Jackson v. Metropolitan Edison Co., 419 US 345 - Supreme Court 1974). Then, those actors usurped more powers. The smoking gun can be found in the FCC Obamanet orders of 2010 and 2015. The 2015 Obamanet Order, officially called Open Internet Order, has explicitly...

WHAT, WHO: Biden has 93% chance of being Dem nominee HOW: Estimate of 2300 delegates (1991 needed for majority) WHEN: WA, MI, MO, MS - all forecasted to go to Biden this week Bernie is <1% chance now.

Michigan could do Bernie in and Fox News is giving him a townhall the night before. Coincidence? At least Bernie is willing to go on the network for whatever reason. Could Operation Chaos save him for now? Btw I just lost $50 in the last hour. Not worried.

In 2016, the Commonwealth established a Climate Finance Access Hub, based in Mauritius, and providing regional services as well. The hub helps small and vulnerable countries access international sources of climate finance, has already assisted the financing of several projects in smaller countries, and is there to provide capacity development, knowledge management, and technical expertise. The idea of the hub is excellent, but the ambition clearly needs to be much greater to tackle climate change on a much wider basis with increased support. The climate emergency is predicted to have a major effect on many Commonwealth nations, plus likely huge...

It may seem counterintuitive, but single-payer health care proposals like Medicare for All could very well destroy Medicare as we know it and jeopardize medical care for seniors. It’s not just because single-payer systems like those in Britain and Canada hold down costs by limiting the availability of doctors and treatments, even for the most serious life-threatening diseases like cancer, brain tumors and heart disease. And it’s not just because single-payer systems restrict access to the newest drugs for cancer and other serious diseases, sometimes for years, compared with the United States system. Or that single-payer systems have shown to...

Michigan has a Democratic governor and the voter fraud has already started. The Secretary of State official website says Tuesday Mar 10 is a Democratic primary, when it's the primary for BOTH parties. Get out and vote, the Republican primary is tomorrow too!

Morning "Yea, he is altogether lovely." Song of Solomon 5:16 The superlative beauty of Jesus is all-attracting; it is not so much to be admired as to be loved. He is more than pleasant and fair, he is lovely. Surely the people of God can fully justify the use of this golden word, for he is the object of their warmest love, a love founded on the intrinsic excellence of his person, the complete perfection of his charms. Look, O disciples of Jesus, to your Master's lips, and say, "Are they not most sweet?" Do not his words cause your...

Ok, watching the news, etc. second circuit breaker hit at a 7+% drop in the DOW. Trading halted. Oil collapsed 30% overnight. There is a potential of a major collapse today. Fed is increasing money into the economy this am. If you are still in stocks, be very careful. Now, there is a worry that the next breaker at 13% drop in the DOW could be hit. All of this over coronavirus. Now a bit of good news, Texas firm says they have a vaccine, but still has to get through FDA testing. Just hang on, it’s gonna be a...

Sick and tired of this nonsense... It's time for Trump to step up and declare the media a nuisance that must be reigned in from reporting nonsense. Freedom of the press is fine if the press is reporting the news. When they become hysterical and start damaging the economy to the determent of millions who already live in poverty and decay, it's time to put a kibosh on it... All news regarding this virus should be off limits and reported only by government sources, not liberal minded news outlets with a political agenda of destroying the economy. It's drastic and...

Stocks tumbled on Monday as investors braced for the economic fallout from the spreading coronavirus, while a shocking all-out oil price war added to the anxiety. The Dow Jones Industrial Average tanked more than 1,800 points at the open, while the S&P 500 dropped 7%. The massive sell-off triggered a key market circuit breaker in morning trading. Trading was halted for 15 minutes until 9:49 a.m. ET.

Before the Patriot Act, the FBI would have been stymied in conducting a counterterrorism investigation involving a now infamous American agent of a foreign power. Anwar al-Awlaki was born in the United States. Yet, apparently, Senators Rand Paul and Mike Lee believe the only thing worth remembering about him is that President Obama “illegally” had him killed in Yemen using a Hellfire missile. (No matter that al-Awlaki: had sent “panty bomber” Abdulmuttalab to blow up a passenger plane over Detroit; attempted to blow up a DHL cargo airplane in flight; had become the well-publicized spiritual leader of Al Qaeda in...

U.S. equity markets were halted Monday morning after the S&P 500 dropped 7 percent, as an oil price war between Saudi Arabia and Russia sent crude prices crashing. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was lower by more than 1,800 points, or 7 percent, in the opening minutes of trading while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite were down 7 percent and 6.86 percent, respectively. Trading will resume following a 15-minute halt. The steep slide caused the New York Federal Reserve to increase its daily cash injections into the banking system to $150 billion from $100 billion.

White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham called on Democrats Monday to stop stoking the flames of coronavirus panic to gain political points against President Trump. "I just want to stress to politicians and the media to stop using this as a tool to politicize things and to scare people," Grisham told "Fox & Friends." "It's not responsible. This is not the time for this. People need to be looking to the CDC for guidance. People need to be washing their hands, treating this like the flu, making responsible choices. This is absolutely not the time to be trying to scare...

With the recent and sudden surge of Joe Biden in the Democrats' presidential primary, the liberal mob running the modern Democrat Party want Americans to believe they have shunned extremism and now have a palatable "moderate" on the verge of leading their party into the November elections. Don't be fooled. With his recent "nasty" display in front of the U.S. Supreme Court, Senator Chuck Schumer — the Democrats' Senate minority leader — again reminded us that there are few, if any, "moderates" left in today's Democrat Party. The fact that the Democrats are almost completely bereft of moderates should have...
