“He’s sort of like [Joseph] Goebbels,” Joe Biden told MSNBC's Stephanie Ruhle. “You say the lie long enough, keep repeating it, repeating it, repeating it, it becomes common knowledge.” Biden finally pulled the Nazi card when describing President Trump. Sadly, this has become common throughout both the mainstream and social media. With both sides calling the other Nazis, it might be a good time to ask some fundamental questions: Who were the Nazis, and what do they stand for? Few people can answer that correctly, despite their strong emotional attachment painting their political foes as such. To understand the Nazis...

A failed Hunter Biden business venture - which an ex-partner said involved Joe Biden - targeted “key domestic contacts” including Gov. Cuomo for potential projects across the country, documents reveal. A May 15, 2017, memo naming potential contacts was sent by Joe Biden’s brother Jim to his nephew and three other men who all formed a limited liability company to partner with another firm on “global and/or domestic” projects involving “infrastructure, energy, financial services and other strategic sectors,” the documents show. The other company was backed by a since-vanished Chinese energy tycoon and was to “be primarily responsible for arranging...

[Note: This piece has heavy use of video.] It’s 2016 all over again, folks. These people are utterly and completely incapable of learning. They had four full years to do some research and work to get to know who Trump supporters really are and try to gain an understanding of why he creates such an incredible level of loyalty out here in Flyover Country, and chose to just lazily spend those years vilifying us instead. They can all feel what’s coming now, but cannot ever bring themselves to admit they might have been wrong. So, they’ll all spend the next...

Amy Coney Barrett has some ‘splainin’ to do. Last week, Judge Barrett said the death of George Floyd from “racist” police was “very personal” to her. She worried that someday her adopted black children -- and grandchildren -- might suffer the same kind of “brutality.” She even told the national audience turned in to her Supreme Court confirmation hearing that her family cried about all the violence white racism could wreak upon them. One way or another, sooner or later, Judge Barrett’s family will learn the real threat to their safety in their new hometown of Washington, D.C. is not...

Prostestors set garbage cans on fire and clashed with police in Naples tonight as a curfew was imposed to curb the growing spread of coronavirus. Violence erupted as hundreds of activists, many wearing face coverings, took to the city's streets this evening to oppose tougher measures being imposed to tame the virus as new infections hit a record high. Videos show crowds of people chanting and marching through the city centre, with car horns tooting in the background, while smoke filled the air as demonstrators looked to make their case against the curfew.

Netflix’s disappointing third quarter earnings was the result of subscribers canceling their service at eight times the usual rate because of anger over the controversial French film Cuties, it has been reported. Data unearthed by two analytics firms indicate that there was a sharp uptick in the number of people who cancelled their subscriptions at around the same time that calls were growing for a boycott of Netflix over its airing of Cuties.

A woman reportedly spent one week behind bars recently after having sex with a teenage boy at the Australian school where she used to work. “Melissa Nosti, 33, who lives in a suburb of Sydney, pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 18 months in the slammer for having sex with the student at the school where she worked in 2010,” the New York Post reported Friday.

Advocates of environmental justice have long been frustrated by politicians who ignore the plight of communities that are most at risk from climate change. On Thursday night, they saw signs of change. President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden were asked during the presidential debate about the unequal burden that people of color in the United States face from exposure to pollution, toxic substances and other environmental risks. Their answers revealed stark differences in how the issue is viewed by both candidates, but climate activists said that witnessing a discussion of environmental racism on a national stage felt...

Elaine Luria and Abigail Spanberger were part of a historic wave of women who helped Democrats retake the U.S. House in 2018. And when they got to Washington, both established themselves as party moderates willing to work with Republicans on legislation. But their reelection bids are far from guaranteed. They're wooing voters in Republican-drawn districts that supported Donald Trump, a president they voted to impeach.

Voters might be forgiven if in the closing weeks of the 2020 election cycle they are experiencing a sense of déjà vu. After all, this year, as in 2016, the pollsters are nearly unanimous: the Democrat is way ahead, and the chances for an upset victory by the Republican — who supposedly no one likes — are slim to non-existent. Leftists (and journalists — the two categories largely overlap) are licking their chops, dreaming not just of winning the White House, but of securing the House, the Senate, and the Supreme Court, all in one fell swoop! What makes our...

Image from La Crosse County website, cropped and scaled by Dean Weingarten U.S.A. –-(AmmoLand.com)- La Crosse County, Wisconsin may have engineered a new event, the cheap ammunition event. Ammunition has often been accepted at gun turn-in events, though it is not paid for. Some excellent deals have been found for ammunition at these events. The event will be held at 3202 Berlin Drive, La Crosse.  It appears to be the local landfill, from 8 a.m. to noon on Saturday, the 24th of October. The La Crosse event is specifically organized to collect unwanted ammunition. The county states it often...

Joe Biden's son, brother eyed connecting Beijing billionaire with regime security ties with top elected Democrats to advance proposed Chinese investment in critical U.S.infrastructure. Records released by a former Biden family business partner reveal that Joe Biden's brother and son proposed connecting a Chinese billionaire affiliated with Beijing's military and intelligence services with top elected Democrats to advance Chinese investments in critical U.S. infrastructure. In doing so, say China experts, the former vice president and his family endangered U.S. national security. On Thursday, Tony Bobulinski provided the FBI with records of his business correspondence with James and Hunter Biden, the...

“I know that when I come to you, I shall come in the fullness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ” (Romans 15:29). In writing these words to the Christians in Rome, Paul was telling them, “I have no doubt that when I meet you, it will be in the fullest measure of Christ’s blessing.” The apostle’s words here imply something that every believer must know; that is, there are varying degrees, or measures, of Christ’s blessing. Some believers obtain a full measure of this blessing, which is the goal, of course. Yet other Christians enter into only a...

"The judgments of the Lord are more desirable than gold, yes, than much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and the drippings of the honeycomb" (Ps. 19:10). You should value Scripture more than all earthly treasures. I have a friend who has a beautiful collection of rare Bibles. My favorite is one of the earliest printed copies, dating back to sixteenth-century England. The first time I held it in my hands I noticed that the top third of every page was covered with a dark stain. Tears filled my eyes when I realized it was from the blood of its...

<p>OKLAHOMA CITY - Joe Biden is confronting the harsh political realities of combating climate change.</p> <p>The Democratic presidential nominee has spent months touting a $2 trillion plan to boost investment in clean energy and stop all climate-damaging emissions from the U.S. economy by 2050. The plan implied that he would wean the U.S. off oil and gas, but Biden wasn’t so explicit about the industry’s fate - until Thursday night.</p>

A crowded D.C. Council race is again exposing the racial undercurrents of city politics, sparking a battle over who should wield power in a gentrifying place once known as Chocolate City. Washington, D.C., went from majority to plurality Black a decade ago, and the electorate has since grown younger and Whiter. Black moderates worry they are in danger of being sidelined by a new generation of politicians intent on pushing a national liberal agenda.

A physician claimed that the following are actual comments made by his patients (predominately male) while he was performing their colonoscopies: 1. 'Take it easy, Doc. You're boldly going where no man has gone before!' 2. 'Find Amelia Earhart yet?' 3. 'Can you hear me NOW?' 4. 'Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet?' 5. 'You know, in Arkansas , we're now legally married.' 6. 'Any sign of the trapped miners, Chief?' 7. 'You put your left hand in, you take your left hand out...' 8. 'Hey! Now I know how a Muppet feels!' 9....

@RepThomasMassieSomeone has plans to make the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine mandatory. There’s no other reason to explain why they are testing it on children right now. Every person running for office needs to be asked whether they would make a COVID vaccine mandatory for children or adults. I’m a No.

hey’re on a Wing and a prayer. Page Six has learned that famous female-focused members spot the Wing is in dire financial straits — and is even considering filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. When we asked the club — which has 11 locations including in New York, San Francisco, Chicago and London — about rumors that it’s preparing to file for bankruptcy, the club told us, “The Wing is not filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy at this time.”
