In a Letter to the Editor to the New York Times, Politico founder Martin Tolchin argued against investigating Tara Reade’s sexual assault allegations of Joe Biden, citing fear of losing the 2020 election. Tolchin said he wants “a coronation of Joe Biden,” not an investigation into the former Senate aide’s rape allegations. “I don’t want an investigation. I want a coronation of Joe Biden. Would he make a great president? Unlikely. Would he make a good president? Good enough. Would he make a better president than the present occupant? Absolutely,” Tolchin wrote. Tolchin continued to say he was not interested...

Herring still doesn’t have much appreciation for civil rights. He’s defending Virginia social distancing policies that led to the pastor of a Virginia church being cited for holding a church service. There were sixteen people in the church sanctuary, which seats 225. The congregation in question serves, among others, recovering drug addicts and former prostitutes. The church sought legal relief. The Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division filed a statement of interest, arguing that the Virginia polices at issue may constitute a violation of the constitutional right to the free exercise of religion. Herring’s office responded with this imbecilic statement:...

New York will work with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to “reimagine” the state’s school system as part of broader reforms in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic, Governor Andrew Cuomo told a daily briefing on Tuesday.

Rush is talking about Moochelle complaining that ‘her people’ didn’t come out and vote in 2016. That was a slap in the face, after Barack’s 8 years. Folks, she is laying the groundwork for massive voter fraud. They will not stand for Trump winning a second term. And they will inject as many fraudulent votes into this election as they can. Too many ‘newly found’ boxes of ballots will emerge. The Dems will then point to why the Dems came out to vote......Moochelle complained thereby motivating more voters to come out.

Dr. Rick Bright, the ousted director of the office involved in developing a coronavirus vaccine, formally filed an extensive whistleblower complaint Tuesday alleging his early warnings about the coronavirus were ignored and that his caution at a treatment favored by President Donald Trump led to his removal.

Why has Governor Cuomo by executive order banned the sale of hydroxychloroquine for at-home use for CoVid-19? Do you know how dangerous and scary it is to get a positive CoVid-19 test result and be told to stay home and isolate with no available medication available to slow, prevent or minimize the progression of the disease as it begins to ravage your respiratory system? As you approach Day 5, the respiratory symptoms often get worse eventually sending you to the hospital. This is a Dangerous Standard of Care for at-home early maintenance of CoVid-19. Governor Cuomo, let's make HCQ available...

Your chance of dying from COVID-19 is notably higher if you live in a blue state. There is only one reliable metric that reveals how likely you are to die from COVID-19 in a given state, and it isn’t what you’re seeing in the legacy media. The number of new cases and deaths, for example, are staples of news stories about the pandemic. Neither of these factoids, however, tells us very much in the absence of sophisticated epidemiological data that just isn’t yet available. A far more predictive metric is “death rate per million.” Why? Testing is far more consistent...

A New Hampshire Democrat said Friday that 2020 presidential candidate Joe Biden accuser Tara Reade’s story is not believable, citing the “position of the female vagina.” Democratic New Hampshire state Rep. Richard Komi tweeted Friday morning about his understanding of female anatomy, saying that he does not believe Reade’s allegations against the former vice president. Reade has said that Biden kissed her, touched her, and penetrated her with his fingers without her consent when she worked for him as a senate staffer in 1993. “Judging by the position of the female vagina, it will not be easy for anyone to...

South Korean health officials reported no new local transmissions of COVID-19 for the second day in a row on Tuesday as the country prepares to ease social distancing rules and reopen schools and public facilities. The Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported three additional imported cases of COVID-19, bringing the total number of infections to 10,804. The new patients represented the sixth day in a row of single-digit increases and marked the lowest daily total since Feb. 18, when an outbreak began in the southeastern city of Daegu. In response to the steadily decreasing number of new patients,...

The New York attorney general’s office late last year launched an investigation into allegations of sexual harassment, retaliation and gender discrimination at NBC News, Variety has learned. NBC News chief Andrew Lack and former “Hardball” host Chris Matthews were among multiple high-ranking executives and newsroom talents whose behavior was the subject of questioning, according to multiple sources. Among those who cooperated with the investigation by providing testimony was Megyn Kelly, an individual close to the former “Today” host told Variety. Kelly declined to comment. News of the investigation followed the surprise announcement Monday that Lack would depart the company months...

Laura Schuck waited outside Baptist South Friday afternoon for her husband. He was set to be released after nearly a month stay at the hospital. It had been three weeks since Laura saw her husband, Carl Schuck; three weeks since he was diagnosed with COVID-19. Minutes later came the moment both Laura and Carl Schuck weren’t sure would come. Carl Schuck, 72-years-old, was wheeled out of the hospital a COVID-19 survivor. Laura Schuck and the health care workers nearby started cheering. “Wait! I have to get a picture,” Laura Schuck said. “Oh, I wish I could hug you,” she told...

Joe Biden accuser Tara Reade is facing the former vice president’s presidential campaign and the Democratic establishment without the type of pro-bono legal and public relations support that Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh accuser Christine Blasey Ford received. A prominent legal defense fund that was established in the wake of the #MeToo movement told Reade in February that it couldn’t support her because it would put its charitable status at risk. Reade has said she hasn’t received any offers for pro-bono public relations support to handle the deluge of reporter inquiries she has received in the weeks since her allegation...

Michelle Obama told the White House butlers to change their uniform because she didn't want her daughters 'thinking that grown African American men serve them in tuxedos'. The former First Lady said the tuxedos sent the wrong message to Malia and Sasha, who were 10 and seven years old when they moved into the White House. . . . Obama says that she and her husband knew that they were a 'provocation' for some parts of America who couldn't accept them. She says: 'How were these people dealing with the fact that a black family was in what they perceived...

AT LEAST 12 different strains of coronavirus were spreading through the UK in March - including one which has only ever been found in Britain, a SAGE report found. Scientists analysed the genomes of the deadly virus in 260 infected patients across the country. They discovered at least 12 strains of coronavirus, one of which has only ever been found in the UK - meaning it mutated on British soil. But the COVID-19 Genomics UK Consortium admitted the "under-sampling in the UK and elsewhere means the number of independent introductions of Covid-19 is very likely substantially higher". The scientists concluded...

It's been a big few weeks. President Obama, Secretary Clinton, Senator Sanders, Senator Warren, and Speaker Pelosi all endorsed our campaign. Now, we need your help to keep the momentum going.

A “Catholic” group funded by pro-abortion billionaire George Soros slammed New York Cardinal Timothy Dolan last week for praising President Donald Trump. In an open letter to the cardinal dated May 1, Faith in Public Life claimed the Republican president is not really pro-life and criticized Catholic Church leaders for expressing even moderate support for him, according to the Catholic News Service. The likely intent of the letter is to sew doubt into pro-life voters’ minds about Trump ahead of the November election. Soros, one of the richest men in America, has dumped hundreds of millions of dollars into pro-abortion...

A federal civil rights trial wrapping up in Tallahassee may resolve the question of whether felons in Florida who have served their prison sentences – but can’t afford to pay court fines and fees – will be allowed to vote in the upcoming election.

The White House plans to wind down its coronavirus task force in coming weeks, the New York Times reported on Tuesday, adding it is not clear whether another group might replace the task force headed by Vice President Mike Pence and made up of health and logistics officials. Officials in President Donald Trump’s administration are telling task force members and their staff to expect the group to wind down within weeks, according to the Times. Reuters did not immediately confirm the report.
