SPANAWAY, Wash. — A 78-year-old woman from Spanaway held an intruder at gunpoint after finding the man breaking into her home, according to the Pierce County Sheriff’s Office. The woman, who goes by Sandy, knew something was wrong when her dog, Booboo, started barking Sunday night. “I opened my door, and standing right 2, 3 feet in front of me was a man. We looked at each other for a few seconds, and he turned and started to leave. And I said, ‘Oh no, you don’t. You stay right there!’” she said. Sandy said her neighborhood has been plagued by...

@Breaking911Kentucky Attorney General says search warrant executed in #BreonnaTaylor killing was NOT a "no-knock" warrant & officers announced their presence

West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin slammed religious criticisms of Judge Amy Coney Barrett, a front-runner for President Trump's nomination to replace the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the Supreme Court. During an interview on Fox and Friends Wednesday, the centrist Democrat decried the attacks against Barrett's Catholic beliefs, which some outlets have linked to the dystopian novel The Handmaid's Tale that has been converted into a television series. "I have heard your colleagues in the Senate query her about her religion, which makes you wonder should a person’s religion disqualify them from a job on the Supreme Court? Because...

Well, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) are pretty much dragging their feet on a COVID relief package because it could give President Trump a legislative win before the election and better the chances of the GOP keeping the Senate. It makes sense. Democrats say they’re for the working man…by totally screwing him. Yet, a new development has occurred that could give Trump a legislative win before Election Day. Moderate Democrats might go forward with a discharge petition to force a vote on a relief bill. These Democrats are from competitive districts, ones that...

The President is holding a Peaceful Protest in Newport News, VA on 9/25. I'm wondering if his internal polls are showing he is close in VA or, possibly, is ahead. If Trump wins VA, I think it's game over for the Dems. Any VA FReepers have a sense of the President's chances?

(CU) - The belief in the topic of “gang stalking” often taints the conspiracy world. In most instances, the conclusions by these individuals are dismissed out of hand and rightly so. However, when you take a step back and investigate the details related to the subject of gang stalking another thought may come to mind. That thought? The recently discovered beliefs of racism being rooted in every corner of American life mirrors many of the gang stalking patterns. Are there potential links of subversive racism and everyday life? Of course. Racism in society and the necessary dialogue has been a...

Emphasizing that California must stay at the forefront of the fight against climate change, Gov. Gavin Newsom on Wednesday issued an executive order to restrict new car sales in the state to only zero-emission vehicles by 2035 *** Under Newsom’s order, the California Air Resources Board would implement the phase-out of new gas-powered cars and light trucks and also require medium and heavy-duty trucks to be zero-emission by 2045 where possible. California would be the first state in the nation to mandate 100% zero-emission vehicles, though 15 countries already have committed to phasing out gas-powered cars. *** Cars, trucks and...

Today, on behalf of the Trump Administration, the Department of Justice sent draft legislation to Congress to reform Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. The draft legislative text implements reforms that the Department of Justice deemed necessary in its June Recommendations and follows a yearlong review of the outdated statute. The legislation also executes President Trump’s directive from the Executive Order on Preventing Online Censorship. “For too long Section 230 has provided a shield for online platforms to operate with impunity,” said Attorney General William P. Barr. “Ensuring that the internet is a safe, but also vibrant, open and...

President Trump Announces ‘Born Alive’ Executive Order at National Catholic Prayer Breakfast The Born-Alive Infant Protection Act has been introduced countless times in Congress, but has failed to become law. WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump on Wednesday announced an executive order that would require medical care be given to infants who are born alive after failed abortion attempts. “Today I am announcing that I will be signing the Born-Alive Executive Order to ensure that all precious babies born alive, no matter their circumstances, receive the medical care that they deserve. This is our sacrosanct moral duty,” said Trump Sept....

GOP-led investigation cites 'glaring' evidence of Burisma bribe, suspicious foreign money transfers and sex trafficking. A year-long Senate investigation concluded Wednesday that Hunter Biden's efforts to cash in on foreign business deals during his father's vice presidency raised alarm among U.S. government officials, who perceived an ethical conflict of interest and flagged concerns about possible criminal activity ranging from bribery to sex trafficking. The long-awaited joint report by the GOP-led Senate Homeland and Government Affairs and Senate Finance Committees delivered several blockbuster revelations less than two months before Election Day, suggesting Obama administration officials ignored clear warning signs about ethical...

Cholesterol is a steroid lipid (fat) found in the blood of all animals and is necessary for proper functioning of our cell membranes and production of hormones. While there can be negative health effects associated with low cholesterol, cholesterol deficiency is rare. Our bodies already manufacture all the cholesterol we need, so it is not necessary to consume more. Excessive consumption of cholesterol may increase the risk of heart disease and stroke, especially in certain groups which are sensitive to dietary cholesterol. (2) Experiment with different diets, and use a Cholesterol Test Kit, so you can monitor your cholesterol levels...

Cardinal Muller Looks at US Politics, the 2020 Election and Catholic Conscience The prefect emeritus of the Congregation of the Faith tells the Register that the Catholic Church must not only demand freedom of religion, she must also take up the task of demanding and promoting that politics be given a moral basis. Cardinal Gerhard Müller is urging U.S. Catholic voters to “test the spirits to see whether they are from God” as they prepare to go to the polls on Nov. 3.  In an exclusive Sept. 22 interview with the Register, the prefect emeritus of the Congregation for...

Maintaining its proud commitment to printing all the news that will divide Americans by race, sex, and creed, the New York Times published a list of what it claimed were the “922 of the most powerful people in America” while claiming that only 20% of them are people of color. The term “people of color” is already ambiguous enough with white professors, grad students, and NAACP presidents claiming to be black. . . The Times claimed that only 112 of the 431 House of Representatives members are people of color. It lists Rep. Rashida Tlaib as a person of color,...

It’s well known that the Democrats have announced their plan to delay the counting of votes in the November presidential election as long as possible. Some think they want it to go to the US Supreme Court, where John Roberts might again abandon conservatives and stick it to Donald Trump. Remember, despite the polls, increasingly the murmurs coming from the Democrats are that they will drag the vote-counting out until 2021 and/or put the matter into the courts.Can they do this? Is it possible? The fact is, almost no one knows.In the 1876 presidential election, the electoral counts from three...

After the death of George Floyd, anti-police sentiment seems to have reached a fever pitch among Democrats. Activists and candidates called for the defunding of police, antifa and Black Lives Matter rioters tried to burn down buildings with law enforcement inside, and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi referred to federal officers as “stormtroopers.” Yet one Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate in Georgia was ahead of the curve. Raphael Warnock, the senior pastor at Ebenezer Baptist Church, preached sermons condemning police as far back as 2015. In those sermons, he said the police act like gangsters, thugs, and bullies. He insisted that...

FRANKFORT, Ky. (WDRB) -- The Jefferson County grand jury is scheduled to present its report on the Breonna Taylor case in a Louisville courtroom at 1:15 p.m. Wednesday. That announcement will be streamed here on WDRB.com. When that time comes, you can watch it below.

The Kentucky National Guard was activated one hour before Attorney General Daniel Cameron is expected to announce whether or not there will be charges filed against the Louisville police officers involved in the shooting of Breonna Taylor. Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer issued a preemptive state of emergency for the city earlier this week in anticipation of the announcement. Fischer said that the reason for the state of emergency is the “potential for civil unrest.”
