... In Debunking Howard Zinn, Mary Grabar has performed the absolutely necessary task that her title promises, and has done so with admirable energy, persistence, and relentless attention to detail, leaving Zinn’s already shaky credibility in utter ruins. She brings the intensive scrutiny of a jeweler’s eye to Zinn’s work, topic by topic, and shows in no uncertain terms how flawed and unreliable it is. But that is not all. She also shows us Zinn the man: An utter charlatan and naked partisan, an admirer of Stalin and Mao, a relentless self-promoter and self-mythologizer, and a media-savvy celebrity of the...

I logged on to this IRS portal this morning. https://www.irs.gov/coronavirus/get-my-payment After entering all my info it said you are eligible to receive the stimulus check, but we don't have your bank information! How is that possible when I get my social security via direct deposit to my bank account every month? So I entered my bank information and then the portal said we will deposit the stimulus check to that account! (which is the same account as my SS deposit account).

Podcast host Joe Rogan and comedian Brendan Schaub, who used to be an MMA fighter, went off on Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden late last week, saying that President Donald Trump is going to steamroll Biden in the election. “It shows you how crazy the system is that they wanted him,” Rogan said. “That they wanted Biden to be their guy, that they don’t, they can’t admit that he’s in cognitive decline. I mean it’s very strange.” “Look if someone wants to ask me questions about things that I understand like MMA or like comedy like if you want to...

Here’s something I think you’ll find quite interesting… These crazy images were created by French artist Jean-Marc Cote, and a few others back in 1899, 1900, 1901, and 1910. The point being.. Well, basically they were asked to imagine what life would be like in the year 2000. According to Collective-Evolution, these artworks were originally in the form of postcards or paper cards enclosed in cigarette and cigar boxes

President Trump's name will appear on millions of economic stimulus checks sent to Americans as part of the $2.2 trillion stimulus package passed by Congress and signed by the president last month in an effort to stem the economic effects of the coronavirus. Sources confirmed to Fox News that Trump's name will appear on paper checks -- in the memo section -- though his signature is not expected to be included. The Washington Post first reported the change Tuesday night. Citing unnamed senior IRS officials, the Post reported that the Treasury Department is ordering the president's name be printed on...

Facemasks made of leftover fabric from the NAMES Project AIDS Memorial Quilt are being donated to the homeless and those suffering from substance abuse, according to People Magazine. The quilt was the brainchild of activist Cleve Jones who saw it as a way to honor the lives of those taken too soon during the AIDS crisis. The National AIDS Memorial had planned on displaying the quilt in San Francisco this April after spending 20 years in Atlanta. The introduction of social restrictions in response to the COVID-19 global pandemic cancelled those plans, though. Immediately recognizing the dangers inherent in the...

There were more side effects in the group of 75 people who took hydroxychloroquine, but they were mostly mild, the most common being diarrhea. The researchers, led by Wei Tang of Ruijin Hospital in Shanghai, wrote that the medicine’s anti-inflammatory effects probably helped alleviate patients’ symptoms.

Doctors who prescribe an anti-malarial drug being touted as a potential COVID-19 treatment will face a $13,000 fine due to new prescription rules. The rules, brought into effect in Queensland on Tuesday, means that clinicians are banned from prescribing hydroxychloroquine as a COVID-19 treatment. Hydroxychloroquine is an anti-malarial drug now used to treat anti-immune conditions such as lupus and rheumatoid arthritis. There is no solid evidence that the drug is effective against COVID-19, but Federal Health Minister said that there has been “some promising research so far”. The new restrictions were brought in place after doctors began prescribing the drug...

One year ago, on March 5, I became an American citizen, just a few miles away from the Alamo. It is only fitting that this special milestone in my life also happened just three days after the anniversary of Texas’ Independence, because I found in Texas what I was looking for in America. To me, Texas has become similar to these little enclaves of foreign culture that you find in big U.S. cities such as Little Italy or Little Korea. It has become my “Little America.” Let me explain. Every year, millions of people around the world dream of and...

Prayers up for all the families suffering from the impact of this virus. And we're still praying that the spread starts fading with the warmer Spring weather and that an effective treatment and vaccine are developed before the next flu season starts. And we pray that our people are allowed to go back to work very soon and that our economy comes roaring back. Meanwhile, we may be hurt and slowed down somewhat, but we have faith in the long-run that "what doesn't kill us only makes us stronger." God willing, America will survive and we will survive and we...

New York City included thousands of deaths, some of which happened happened weeks ago, in its updated COVID-19 death count on Tuesday. The newly counted deaths are presumed to be caused by COVID-19 because doctors were confident enough to list the disease or “an equivalent” on the patients’ death certificates despite the diagnosis not being confirmed by laboratory tests. Officials added 3,778 “probable” deaths to the COVID-19 count (pdf), taking a number that would have been 6,589 to over 10,000. The shift came after fire officials said there were hundreds of people dying at home every day in recent weeks....

VIDEO As was completely predictable, despite his previous vehement opposition to Joe Biden, Cenk Uygur is now on the road to a laughably humiliating crawlback towards supporting the man he recently denounced as the Establishment Candidate who had no chance of winning the general election. You can get a sense of just how far poor Cenk is having to crawl by contrasting his April 14 rationalizations on possibly supporting Biden with his Super Tuesday MELTDOWN last month in which he called Biden a senile liar. The stark contrast of the two Cenks that you see here makes for great...

South Korea has been holding an election unlike any other. Voters wore masks and stood at least 1m apart. They had their temperature taken, disinfected their hands and wore plastic gloves. Only then were they given their voting slip and allowed to head into the booth to cast their ballot. These are just some of the measures taken to allow the scheduled National Assembly election to take place during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Another study conducted by researchers at the University of Utah found that “critically ill patients with lung injury requiring mechanical ventilation may benefit from administration of ivermectin,” ABC News reported. “We noted a lower mortality and reduced health care resource use in those treated with ivermectin,” wrote lead author Dr. Amit Patel. And at Broward Health Medical Center in Florida, Dr. Jean-Jacques Rajter has already been using ivermectin in addition to hydroxychloroquine, azithromycin and zinc sulfate to treat his COVID-19 patients, according to NBC Miami. “If we get to these people early, and what I mean by that is if...
