Nicole Griggs, has been a teacher at Steinert High School in New Jersey for the last 15 years and today she made it on the headlines for all the wrong reasons. She was caught on camera telling students who were playing football in the park that they should “die a long, painful death” from the coronavirus.

MIAMI (AP) — NBA players will be allowed to return to team training facilities starting Friday, provided that their local governments do not have a stay-at-home order prohibiting such movement still in place as part of the response to the coronavirus pandemic. Any workouts that take place would be voluntary and be limited to individual sessions only, according to a person familiar with the league’s decision. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Saturday because the directives from the league were not released publicly. Group practices would not be allowed yet, and teams will not yet...

The link is to a sermon we should all give ear. Is the plandemic we are enduring now the final plague of the Tribulation? No, it is a sign of how close the world government is, the government the Anti-Christ will step into. If you believe the removal of the Believers of and in Jesus Christ as Savior, your personal Savior, well if you are a believer we are soon outta here. If you do not believe in the departure of the Believers before the Tribulation, well then take this message as your exclamation point for denying when 'someone' commands...

One defiant NYC business owner — who’s been deemed “non-essential” during the pandemic — has a message to New York: “I’m opening my doors come hell or high water.” Eliot Rabin, whose Upper East Side boutique, Peter Elliot, is known for high-end men’s and boys apparel, refuses to follow a state order closing retail business not considered essential. He insists that his $85 pocket squares and $15,000 suits are part of the fabric of New York City: “Why is a liquor store essential and I’m not?” Rabin told The Post. He admitted that many of the customers who can afford...

MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Mexico has almost entirely cleared out its migrant shelters over the past five weeks to contain the spread of the coronavirus pandemic, returning most of the occupants to their countries of origin, official data showed on Sunday. In a statement, the National Migration Institute (INM) said that in order to comply with health and safety guidelines, since March 21 it had been removing migrants from Mexico’s 65 migrant facilities, which were harboring 3,759 people last month. In the intervening weeks, Mexico has returned 3,653 migrants to Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador by road and air with...

As of today, nearly 55,000 Americans are reported to have died because of COVID-19. It is well known that the elderly and frail are more susceptible to the Wuhan Coronavirus. As a result, almost one of five COVID-19 deaths have occurred among those who live in nursing homes or other long-term care institutions. New York state is the epicenter of the American outbreak, accounting for 40% of the deaths. The grim statistic stems from the fact New York City has recorded over 155,000 cases (16% of the national total) and over 11,000 deaths (22% of American deaths). One factor for...

Women who could possibly be vice presidential candidates on the Democrat ticket with Joe Biden will participate in an Everytown for Gun Safety gun control series beginning in late April and spanning numerous weeks.

Moms Demand Action’s Shannon Watts commented on the possible Democrat vice presidential candidates’ participation in the gun control series,...

HAMILTON — A math teacher at Steinert High School was caught on video this week shouting at a group of teenagers playing football in the park that they should “die a long, painful death” from the coronavirus. The teacher was identified by multiple sources as Nicole Griggs, who has been a township teacher for the last 15 years and also taught middle school, according to the district website. One of the teenagers, a freshman at Steinert, told The Trentonian she stopped to admonish them from behind a chain-link fence. At first, Griggs, who appears to be wearing a gray sweatshirt...

On Friday, reporters claimed President Trump suggested Americans inject themselves with disinfectant. Shortly after, corporate media began reporting an increase in poison control center calls about bleach and other household cleaners. The only problem? The increase in calls started nearly two months before Trump’s comments. Mainstream outlets, such as the New York Daily News, blamed the uptick in calls to the New York City Poison Control Center on President Trump’s comments about disinfectants. NYC Poison Control Center saw 30 cases of exposure to Lysol, bleach & other cleaners in 18 hours after Trump’s suggestion disinfectant might be used to treat...

Rather embarrassing request. Maybe 7 years ago, I came across an interesting essay on "the existence of God or the Devil." DISCLAIMER: NO IT WAS NOT C.S. LEWIS OR CHESTERTON OR WILLIAM LANE CRAIG. THANK YOU! It was maybe 6 or 8 pages long, and was fairly learned and erudite, but written in a Screwtape-style fashion ; it was a way of "backing up into" the existence of God, starting with the existence of Evil ; and from there, not arguing against God, but FOR the existence of the Devil (from thence, of course, God Follows, since the Devil rebelled...

After two months of frantic response to the coronavirus, the White House is planning to shift President Donald Trump’s public focus to the burgeoning efforts aimed at easing the economic devastation caused by the pandemic. Days after he publicly mused that scientists should explore the injection of toxic disinfectants as a potential virus cure, Trump has now rejected the utility of his daily task force briefings, where he has time and again clashed with scientific experts. Trump’s aides are aiming to move the president onto more familiar — and safer, they hope — ground: talking up the economy, in tighter...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Nothing beats the campus experience at Purdue University, not even the coronavirus. That’s what officials at the Indiana university are hoping anyway, with President Mitch Daniels floating plans to reopen campus for in-person classes in the fall while saying the COVID-19 virus “poses close to zero lethal threat” to young people. Purdue was among the first wave of colleges to announce a shift from in-person classes in early March, leaving students, faculty and staff to adapt quickly to an online setting by transitioning course material and operating online video platforms like Zoom for classes and meetings....

I know this a vanity, but on a Sunday afternoon and I am in lockdown, CNN is atrocious.

Adam Schiff is a weasel. He is a conniving, slimy, dishonest piece of filth. That’s not half of what I wanted to say about him. The weasel helped to sideline Devin Nunes and Jeff Sessions to keep them from exposing the Russia hoax. The weasel has a penchant for making up conversations out of thin air. He made one up between Trump and Zelensky and entered it into the official record. He fabricated another between Trump and Putin. “If the president went further and said to Putin in that secret meeting,” Schiff said earlier in the day on the Senate floor. “I want you to hack Burisma, I couldn’t get the...

I worked Oregon and California elections as an election judge or clerk for years. I witnessed vote by mail in Oregon and the Republicans never won much after that. The Oregon socialists pushed this and went to vote by mail to CHEAT. I witnessed a democrat county clerk and a democrat county commissioner going to gather ballots from drop boxes..a clear violation that states two people must do this..one person from each party. The clerks remark your ballots!!! YES THEY DO! They call it 'enhancing', claiming the machine can't read the mark unless it's marked over. NO ONE should EVER...

The Democratic People's Republic of Korea reported today that Kim Jong Un is not dead and in fact is "the most alive person in the universe." "American fake news says Supreme Leader is dead, but we found that he was more alive than anyone ever in history," said a spokesperson. "If he lies in still vegetative state, it is only because he is stuffed so full of life like a big meal and needs time to properly digest all that life. So much life. Such great life." According to the official statement released by the Korean Central News Agency, the...

From the Post-COVID World to the Post-COVID Church: A Gnostic Fog Bank In an interview with The Tablet, Francis rightly condemns the barbarity of eugenic abortion and the Malthusian mentality behind the practice of contraception, but only in passing. From Francis we never see as to these moral issues a formal declaration as explicit as his demand for abolition of the death penalty — a just punishment for a guilty party convicted of the crime of murder — which he falsely equates with abortion, the intrinsically evil mass murder of innocents. If only the interview had ended there. But, of...

San Francisco teachers will be paid for full-time work but only be required to work four hours a day during the coronavirus closures, according to a labor agreement approved this week. The part-time work schedule was also adopted by other districts across the state, including Los Angeles, San Diego and Oakland, although many others continue to require teachers to work a full day, which is typically up to 7.5 hours.
