VIDEO If you want prime evidence that CNN is FAKE NEWS, I present to you the case of Fredo Cuomo's FAKE NEWS emergence from a quarantine that everybody knows he broke. This video is a compilation of people laughing at Fredo PRETENDING that he was actually in strict quarantine. Even though CNN is sticking with upholding Fredo's FAKE NEWS story, I am sure even his own colleagues there are laughing at him behind his back. Bottom line: Fredo's quarantine was FAKE NEWS just like CNN is FAKE NEWS. p.s. Now hoping that President Trump MOCKS Fredo for his FAKE...

A bipartisan investigation by the Senate Intelligence Committee has validated the January 2017 U.S. intelligence assessment describing Russia interference in the 2016 presidential election — including Russian efforts to help Donald Trump — describing it as accurate, thorough, and untainted by political bias. Click here to read the report. "The Committee found no reason to dispute the Intelligence Community's conclusions," said Chairman Richard Burr, R-N.C. The CIA and other spy agencies produced the assessment during the final weeks of the Obama administration, and a version of it was made public on Jan. 6, 2017. It told a story of a...

Christine Blasey Ford takes a break in her testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, Thursday, Sept. 27, 2018 on Capitol Hill in Washington. Lawyers seated are Debra Katz and Michael Bromwich. (Saul Loeb/ Pool Image via AP) It’s almost like The New York Times is nothing but a partisan gossip rag.Yesterday, a story was put out by Maggie Haberman that made a rather convenient claim that just so happened to reinforce every media narrative. Namely, that an FDA official named Rick Bright was fired for selflessly sounding the alarm on the supposed vast dangers of hydroxychloroquine. Breaking News: A doctor who...

Beijing's aggression confirms that the Chinese Communist Party is fully committed to fulfill its own great power ambition regardless of the consequences to other states. While nations worldwide were busy dealing with health care and economic crises caused by the Wuhan virus pandemic, Beijing is exploiting the attendant confusion to tighten its control over Hong Kong and the South China Sea.Beijing Tightens Its Grip on Hong Kong Since summer 2019, an extradition bill that would have eroded Hong Kong’s judicial independence ignited the city’s pro-democracy movement. The spread of the coronavirus added a new dimension to the movement in 2020....

A woman shot a man who broke into her home in Chicago's Auburn Gresham neighborhood Wednesday night, Chicago police said. A 31-year-old woman was inside a residence in the 8300-block of South Kerfoot Avenue at about 6:21 p.m. when police said someone forced their way in. The woman took out a gun and shot the intruder, hitting him in the right foot, police said. The intruder was taken to Holy Cross in good condition, police said. The woman has a valid FOID card and concealed-carry license, police said. Area South detectives are investigating.

The University of Washington School of Medicine went to extraordinary lengths to airlift tens of thousands of Covid-19 testing kits from China during a nationwide shortage of sampling swabs and the liquid that preserves specimens for diagnostic testing. In short: a Seattle importer used a business associate in China, who had a connection to a doctor in the province hardest hit by the disease, to secure testing kits from a Shanghai factory and then have them flown stateside as soon as possible on an Amazon-chartered plane. UW Medicine allocated US$125,000 to purchase the kits. The story of the testing swabs...

U.S. Attorney John Durham has expanded his team as his review of the Trump-Russia investigators ramps up during the coronavirus pandemic, which has gripped the country and swept the globe. The top federal prosecutor for Connecticut selected additional team members for his investigative effort in recent weeks, adding agents from the FBI, as well as the chief of the violent crimes and narcotics trafficking section for the U.S. attorney’s office in Washington, D.C., Anthony Scarpelli, according to sources cited by CNN. Durham, who has been running the operation out of Connecticut and D.C., drove down to Washington a few weeks...

When historians write the book on the COVID-19 pandemic, what we’ve lived through so far will probably take up only the first third or so. The bulk of the story will be what happens next. The world will change a lot and for some reason, our best guess is that the Bill Of Rights will be erased. Our basic human rights are being destroyed every day and the majority of the American people don’t see this as a threat to our Country and our Constitution. New technologies are being created to prevent people from getting closer during their work hours...

The evening was already surreal, what with President Donald Trump throwing Brian Kemp under the bus and disavowing the governor’s plans to begin allowing small businesses to open doors closed by the pandemic. “Would I do that? No,” Trump had said from the White House. “I want to protect people’s lives. But I’m going to let him make his decision. But I told him I totally disagree.” Back in Atlanta,at 10 p.m., with her 9-year-old daughter looking over her shoulder, Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms received a text on her phone: “[N-word], just shut up and RE-OPEN ATLANTA!” Seven minutes later,...

We’ve seen plenty of examples of quarterbacks being overdrafted. The Minnesota Vikings picked Christian Ponder way before they should have. EJ Manuel became Buffalo’s first-round pick. And so on. That happens when teams are desperate. There aren’t many franchises clamoring for a quarterback now. Former MVP Cam Newton is unsigned, as is 2019 passing leader Jameis Winston. They’re both former No. 1 overall picks. The Cincinnati Bengals haven’t traded Andy Dalton yet, and he’s a three-time Pro Bowler. Scoff at them if you wish, but a few years ago they’d have been in demand. The NFL quarterback field has never...

You have to hand it to CNN. They’ve managed to find the “silver lining” in the Wuhan coronavirus. According to CNN’s Bill Weir, there’s the perception that the pandemic “has helped humanity buy some time when it comes to global warming.” Tom Elliott @tomselliott CNN’s @BillWeirCNN says Coronavirus “has helped humanity buy some time against global warming”; claims the virus came from too much deforestation Embedded video Yeah, you just had to have a world pandemic with 2,661,518 cases and 185,504 deaths officially reported according to Worldometers (which doesn’t include the undercounts of places like China, Iran and North Korea),...

John 3:31-36 Friends, today’s Gospel promises eternal life to those who believe in the Son of God. In almost every religion, the life of faith has something to do with a creature’s relationship to the Creator; nearly all religions speak of the creature’s dependency upon God, of his subjection to the divine providence, and of his need for grace and forgiveness. Christianity, too, articulates these basic relationships, but it pushes beyond them because it speaks of the Incarnation and the gifts associated with it.We hear in the third chapter of John’s Gospel that "God so loved the world that he...

Earlier today US health official Dr. Rick Bright told reporters he was ousted because he insisted on limiting the use of a drug President Donald Trump has pushed as a Covid-19 treatment despite little clinical evidence it works. Rick Bright was abruptly pushed out of his position as the director of the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority on Tuesday and given a smaller role at the National Institutes of Health. Bright told reporters when leaving the drugs Trump has touted, hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine, “clearly lack scientific merit” Dr. Bright was very upset about the use of hydroxychloroquine to treat...

During World War II, nylon stockings disappeared from store shelves as the valuable synthetic material was diverted to make critical wartime supplies such as parachutes, flak jackets and aircraft fuel tanks. Now, new research suggests that nylon stockings could once again play a critical role in a national battle — this time by making homemade cloth masks significantly more protective. Researchers at Northeastern University have found that adding an outer layer made from nylon stockings to a homemade face covering can boost its ability to filter out small particles in the air by creating a tighter seal between the mask...

I don’t have time to transcribe this entire Tucker Carlson monologue from last night, but wanted to be sure readers of the Campaign Update saw it, because it’s important. The monologue is filled with facts demonstrating pretty clearly that stay-at-home policies have had little if any real impact on slowing the spread of this virus. These of course are facts that your government and corrupt news media are ignoring. Here’s a link to the clip: Carlson Monologue Here are some of the key quotes from it: Carlson: The whims of our political leaders are no unquestioned law: Dissent has been...

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem, a Republican and the governor of one of just a handful of states that has not issued a statewide lockdown order, told Breitbart News exclusively on Wednesday her state is winning the war against the coronavirus without the extreme and draconian measures some other states have implemented. Noem said that despite earlier projections of a surge on the hospitals in South Dakota and nationwide, “no, we haven’t” seen such a surge. In fact, South Dakota has—again, without a lockdown—cut that number down by 75 percent of the projections, with much less than a hundred people...

AUSTIN (KXAN) — Dozens of United States lawmakers are demanding more information on which long-term care facilities have confirmed COVID-19 cases, claiming health officials are “failing to collect and publicly report” that data. “Without understanding the scope and impact of the pandemic within long-term care facilities, the Administration and the Congress lack essential information to adequately respond and protect older Americans and individuals with disabilities who rely on these facilities to survive and are particularly at risk for COVID-19,” the letter reads. The letter calls on the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,...

We are bombarded by images and newstories of the heroes in all of this. Nurses, doctors, grocery store workers, truckers. To me, what makes a hero is sacrifice. The people I've named above are no doubt making a sacrifice in time and work load, and yes, a greater risk of contracting the virus. They have been knighted by the media and society with unprecedented 'Hero' status. We are reminded everyday of their sacrifice. We are told that our existence depends on them. Replace the opening scene of Saving Private Ryan with nurses and doctors wearing face masks instead of camo...
