A cover-up and clampdown by the Chinese government in the early weeks of the coronavirus's emergence is raising questions over whether the communist superpower can be held legally accountable. "Generally countries like China have sovereign immunity and governments cannot be brought to regular courts or held liable regardless of their conduct," Nitsana Darshan-Leitner, an Israel-based attorney who has long specialized in suing terrorist regimes and state sponsors who orchestrate human rights abuses on behalf of victims, told Fox News. "However, an argument could be made that just like support for terrorism, which is legally actionable, a government that engages in...

A blubbery beau flashes its massive tusk — actually an extension of a tooth — to fight off other males and ultimately impress potential mates, according to Graham and other researchers at Arizona State University’s School of life Sciences. The Scientists came to the, well, horny conclusion after they analyzed 35 years of tusk data from 245 adult male narwhals. They say when it comes to mating frequently, big horns are “one of the most charismatic structures in biology,” according to the study. “The narwhal tusk is a sexually selected signal that is used during male-male tusking contests,” Graham said.

I knew there was something sketchy about Dr. Anthony Fauci. Within the WikiLeaks HRC email files there’s a letter from Fauci to Hillary Clinton through her aid/lawyer Cheryl Mills: “Please tell her that we all love her and are very proud to know her.” LOOK:

And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man , They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.

This is the sordid aftermath of the raucous drugs and booze party at a Florida hotel that left a male escort hospitalized and sent high-flying Democrat Andrew Gillum into rehab. Plastic baggies of suspected crystal meth, empty beer bottles and prescription pills are seen scattered among trash and soiled bedding in the shocking images obtained exclusively by DailyMail.com. Gillum, a married dad-of-three who narrowly missed out on becoming Florida's first black governor, was too 'inebriated' to tell cops what went down when they arrived at Miami's Mondrian Hotel early last Friday.

The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey is the latest regional agency to ask federal officials for a bail out, citing coronavirus related travel losses at all its facilities.

You know the rules. Only flubros and flubras. “Oh-no” FReepers (AKA Fearpers) are banned. Freeper Preppers who fear the virus’ impact on the world are also not permitted but Freeper Preppers who fear the panic and government intervention and toilet paper shortages are permitted in the thread. This government/media panic destroys our economy and kills more than the Coronavirus, which is barely worse than a bad flu. I know there is trouble when one of those 4 Democrat witches (I get them mixed up and can’t remember which) said she supported Trump.

Even a disease as far-reaching as the coronavirus hasn’t entirely crossed the chasm between red and blue America. In several key respects, the outbreak’s early stages are unfolding very differently in Republican- and Democratic-leaning parts of the country. That disconnect is already shaping, even distorting, the nation’s response to this unprecedented challenge—and it could determine the pandemic’s ultimate political consequences as well. A flurry of new national polls released this week reveals that while anxiety about the disease is rising on both sides of the partisan divide, Democrats consistently express much more concern about it than Republicans do, and they...

I’m sickened just thinking about it,” Collins, R-Ga., tweeted Frida

New York State’s long-feared surge of coronavirus cases has begun, thrusting the medical system toward a crisis point. In a startlingly quick ascent, officials reported on Friday that the state was closing in on 8,000 positive tests, about half the cases in the country. The number was 10 times higher than what was reported earlier in the week. In the Bronx, doctors at Lincoln Medical and Mental Health Center say they have only a few remaining ventilators for patients who need them to breathe. In Brooklyn, doctors at Kings County Hospital Center say they are so low on supplies that...

Joe Biden is planning a regular shadow briefing on coronavirus to start as early as Monday to show how he would handle the crisis and address what he calls the lies and failures of President Trump.
