Anyone watching Joe Biden's bizarre Tuesday afternoon MSNBC interview with Nicolle Wallace really had to wonder about the guy after watching the bizarre, rambling, and gooey interview. Between Biden's tangents that would sudden start then stop and Wallace's disturbing infatuation and wide smile hanging on his every word, it was as weird as one could possibly imagine. Biden alternated between getting choked up while discussing people who had lost loved ones to the virus, with flinging insults at President Trump --- only to instantly issue abashed, child-like apologies, calling his words "stupid," saying "sorry," and "I shouldn't have said it...

More than half of coronavirus patients worldwide have become better, according to the Johns Hopkins Center for Systems Science and Engineering live tracker. The tracker shows that of the 354,677 confirmed cases around the globe, 15,436 have died while 100,462 recovered.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s daughter has been suspended from Twitter for violating their policy against “glorification of violence” in her tweet endorsing assault on Sen. Rand Paul. “Rand Paul’s neighbor was right” Christine Pelosi tweeted in response to Senator Paul’s remarks on his Coronavirus diagnosis. Senator Paul was attacked by his neighbor Rene Boucher while he was mowing his lawn and suffered six broken ribs in 2017. Last year, he had to have part of his lung removed due to complications from the attack. Boucher plead guilty to a federal charge of assaulting a member of Congress last year and...

" If thou wilt not observe to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, that thou mayest fear this glorious and fearful name, THE LORD THY GOD; then the Lord will make thy plagues wonderful, and the plagues of thy seed, even great plagues, and of long continuance, and sore sicknesses, and of long continuance. Moreover he will bring upon thee all the diseases of Egypt, which thou wast afraid of; and they shall cleave unto thee.Also every sickness, and every plague, which is not written in the book of this law, them...

In a series of interviews Tuesday, Joe Biden attempted to remind America he's still running for president, but ended up providing President Trump a treasure trove of campaign fodder. The ostensible Democratic front-runner appeared in lengthy interviews on CNN, MSNBC, and ABC's "The View," to describe how much more competent his handling of the Coronavirus crisis would be were he in the White House, but appeared confused and sick — coughing incessantly — throughout the appearances. CNN's Jake Tapper even had to remind the former vice president that current protocol is to cough into his elbow, not his his, as...

Amid deadlock, Senator Martha McSally threatened to introduce a bill withholding Senators pay “until Americans are put before politics” if the coronavirus relief package fails a second time. If the Senate can’t come together in a time of great need, no Senator should receive a paycheck—like millions of Americans. If the urgent COVID-19 relief package fails again, I’m introducing a bill immediately to withhold Senators’ pay until Americans are put before politics.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi must be blind. She’s actually advocating that she and her fellow Democrats nationalize the medical supply chain and is holding the third coronavirus relief bill hostage until she and her party get what they want. She wants us to believe that this is the only solution to meet the growing need for goods to combat the coronavirus. What this is truly about is her and her colleagues’ own arrogance and quest for government expansion and control of the economy -- an obvious power grab that’s clearly designed to exploit the COVID-19 national emergency. Is Pelosi so...

On Tuesday, Pelosi released a revised version of House Democrats’ plan in the midst of the coronavirus, which includes: A nationwide mandate for ballot harvesting $300 million for foreign refugees abroad An automatic visa extension for all foreign workers An expansion of foreign-language ballots Same-day voter registration for the 2020 presidential election An amnesty for nearly 800,000 DACA illegal aliens Pelosi’s plan also includes forcing American taxpayers to provide federal grant funding to sanctuary jurisdictions that refuse to turn over criminal illegal aliens to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents for arrest and deportation.

The young man got completely floored after CCTV footage captured him fighting an elderly manA thug who was seen hitting an OAP was dealt a swift dose of karma when a passerby knocked him out. The shocking footage shows a pensioner hitting a young man on the pavement with a shopping bag. He responds by punching the elderly man in the face, who struggles to stand after the blow. As the other person gears up for a follow-up attack, a burly onlooker charges towards him. The stocky man floors his rival with a single right hook and then stands over...

Brits are drinking almost double the amount of booze at home, as they join their friends in virtual pubs online for a pint after venues were forced to close their doors yesterday. With home-drinking almost doubling to 100 million pints a week in the UK, millions are expected to join the virtual phenomenon, knocking back pints in front of their phones’ video-conferencing apps as their friends do the same. Jokers even gave their cyber-pubs — run on apps such as Zoom — names including The Stay Inn, Isolate Inn and The Quarant Inn. Britain’s top psychologist Sir Cary Cooper backed...

A flash of potential good news from the front lines of the coronavirus pandemic: A treatment is showing promise. Doctors in France, South Korea and the U.S. are using an antimalarial drug known as hydroxychloroquine with success.

In a letter signed by pro-life leaders, including Live Action founder and president Lila Rose, the Susan B. Anthony List is urging Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar to ensure that emergency response funds for the COVID-19 outbreak are not inappropriately given to the abortion industry. The letter also expresses concern that the abortion industry’s decision to remain in operation as “essential,” even though abortion is never medically necessary, deliberately kills human beings, keeps desperately needed medical supplies from medical teams responding to the pandemic, and can add additional demand to the already overstrained medical system due to potential...

Albert Uderzo, co-creator and illustrator of the "Asterix" comic book series, has died at the age of 92, a spokesman for his publisher Editions Albert Rene said. The hugely popular comic, read worldwide, follows the adventures of Gaulish warriors and their antics against Roman adversaries. They were published for the first time in francophone Pilote magazine in 1959. Uderzo, who was born in France in April 1927, produced the cartoons alongside author René Goscinny, until Goscinny's death in 1977. The cartoons, which feature blond moustachioed Asterix and his friend Obelix, have been translated into more than 100 languages and dialects.

All Louisiana abortion facilities have closed their doors for at least 30 days after the Louisiana Department of Health issued an order that all non-essential and elective surgeries be postponed in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Louisiana Department of Health issued new healthcare facility guidelines on Saturday ordering all surgical and medical procedures in the state to be postponed unless they are an “emergency.” The order is effective immediately to preserve Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) that is desperately needed by healthcare workers on the frontlines of the battle against COVID-19 (coronavirus). Additional goals of the order are to better...

Amateur "biohackers" are making their own experimental COVID-19 test kits, which purport to diagnose the disease in just 30 minutes, and which patients can potentially perform themselves. The design copies experimental work conducted in the US and China, but has not yet been assessed by any regulatory bodies. The tests are designed to be used almost anywhere, without any specialised equipment, but to date have only been performed on a limited number of human samples. Some experts say the diagnostic test is promising, but they also warn of the potentially serious risks of using tests made by amateurs. "It would...

As American health officials scramble to test citizens displaying symptoms amid the coronavirus pandemic, one faction of Americans has had more access to the coronavirus tests than the rest: celebrities. The story: Vice Magazine recently reached out to a number of celebrities who have been tested for COVID-19 to ask how they were able to get their hands on the sparse tests: “For the most part, it’s a mystery,” Vice explains.

There was a picture of only one president in my house growing up in the 1980s and it was not Ronald Reagan. The president on our family wall was John F. Kennedy. He would be turning over in his grave at what his party has done, increasingly so through the decades and culminating in these past two days. When it seemed apparent that a relief bill, that the American people had been waiting for, was going to be passed it was Nancy Pelosi who killed it. She was assisted by her Senate ally Chuck Schumer. After previously signaling that everything...

Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves urged the state’s only abortion facility to close and comply with a state order postponing all elective medical procedures due to the coronavirus. On Tuesday, the pro-life Republican governor said abortions should stop in the state, especially during the health crisis, the Clarion Ledger reports. Earlier, the state health department issued an order to stop all elective and unnecessary medical procedures so that medical resources can be preserved to combat the growing coronavirus pandemic. Reeves said there is nothing necessary about killing unborn babies in abortions, and the Jackson Women’s Health Organization must comply with the...

A few years ago I wrote an article on free republic entitled, "Bill Gates Admits Vaccines Are Used for Human Depopulation" As a repeat user of Bill Gates company's (Microsoft) products and services, I was interested to know what he believes. I was shocked at what I found, however I realized that Bill's views match most leadership in the Obama administration and most world leaders. Bill Gates gave a Ted Talk in 2010 on reducing Athropogenic Global Warming by reducing the world's population. Here is what he said is the best formula for tracking CO2 emissions: CO2 = P x...

WASHINGTON/LONDON (Reuters) - Elite hackers tried to break into the World Health Organization earlier this month, sources told Reuters, part of what a senior agency official said was a more than two-fold increase in cyberattacks. WHO Chief Information Security Officer Flavio Aggio said the identity of the hackers was unclear and the effort was unsuccessful. But he warned that hacking attempts against the agency and its partners have soared as they battle to contain the coronavirus, which has killed more than 15,000 worldwide. The attempted break-in at the WHO was first flagged to Reuters by Alexander Urbelis, a cybersecurity expert...
