VIDEO The bells are tolling for Joe Biden's collapsing campaign. I don't mean that as a literary metaphor. The bells were actually tolling for Biden yesterday in Chester, PA where poor Joe was forced to put in a hasty appearance just across the state line from Delaware after he was shamed into it due to the mockery by President Trump about him putting a lid on the rest of his campaign.

Sick Joe Scarborough's pitiful public disintegration continues. Yesterday, we caught him, his face contorted in an ugly snarl, screaming at Trump voters that they were "stupid" for continuing to support the president. On today's Morning Joe, Scarborough took things a disgusting step further, saying of President Trump that: "Nobody's ever done so much to kill so many people. That is correct. Nobody." Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

Far-left billionaire George Soros is engaged in a last-minute push to boost voter turnout for Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden among black and Latino voters in key swing states, according to Federal Election Commission records.

Pope Francis has named 13 clergymen to be appointed to the college of cardinals, nine of whom are eligible to vote in upcoming papal conclaves. This brings the number of cardinal electors appointed by Francis to 57 percent of total electors, increasing the likelihood that the next elected pope will share Francis’ vision for the Church. Jesuit Father Thomas Reese, writing for Religion News Service, noted that when the appointees “officially become cardinals, there will be 128 cardinal electors, eight more than the canonical limit.” US archbishop who is pro-LGBT Among the named cardinal electors are archbishops known for heterodox...

Amy Coney Barrett was formally sworn in Tuesday as the Supreme Court’s ninth justice, her oath administered by Chief Justice John Roberts. Her first votes on the court could include two big topics affecting the man who appointed her. The court is weighing a plea from President Donald Trump to prevent the Manhattan district attorney from acquiring his tax returns. It is also considering appeals from the Trump campaign and Republicans to shorten the deadline for receiving and counting absentee ballots in the battleground states of North Carolina and Pennsylvania. It’s not certain Barrett will take part in any of...

The phrase “any given Sunday” was coined by Bert Bell, who served as NFL commissioner in the 1940s and 1950s, and immortalized in a 1999 Oliver Stone movie by the same name. It represents the idea that any pro football team could beat another team, even as a big underdog. But Sunday’s matchup between the defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs and 0-7 New York Jets puts the cliché to the test. The Jets opened Monday as 20.5-point underdogs, the tenth-biggest spread since at least 1976, according to sports betting outlet TheLines.com.

MILAN - Italy braced Tuesday for more protests in cities nationwide against virus-fighting measures like regional curfews, evening shutdowns for restaurants and bars and the closures of gyms, pools and theaters - a sign of the growing discontent across Europe with renewed coronavirus restrictions.

German officials have ordered de-facto lockdowns in some areas near the Austrian border and new mask-wearing requirements are popping up weekly across the...

The statement caused alarm for many who are worried about the economic impact of losing the energy industry, and the potential devastation on the labor force. POLL: Did you watch any of the 2020 Presidential Town Halls last night? Following the debate, the campaign and Biden himself "clarified" his comments about the oil industry that drew ire.

Do masks protect against Chinese coronavirus and reduce its spread — or are they, as their critics maintain, mere empty gesture politics? A major study which might finally have answered this question has been postponed indefinitely after three of the world’s top three medical journals mysteriously declined to publish it. Danish newspaper Berlingske reports: The researchers behind a large and unique Danish study on the effect of wearing a mask are having great difficulty in getting their research results published. One of the participating professors in the study admits that the still secret research result could be perceived as ‘controversial’....

Dr Anthony Fauci has cautioned that early COVID-19 vaccines will be focused on preventing symptoms of the virus, not blocking it altogether. Fauci, the nation's leading expert on infectious diseases, made the point on Monday as at least four vaccine candidates near the end of clinical trials and the US reported a record number of new cases in the last week. While the end goal of the vaccines will be to eradicate the virus, Fauci noted that developers are aiming for a simpler goal in the first round of jabs. 'The primary thing you want to do is that if...

Police in Philadelphia shot and killed a man on Monday, triggering protests that saw at least 30 officers injured, officials said. Police said they shot Walter Wallace Jr., 27, after responding to a call about a man armed with a knife. The responding officers ordered Wallace “several times” to drop the knife and he continued to “advance towards” them, according to a statement. They then fired their weapons, shooting him in the chest and shoulder, and he was pronounced dead at the hospital just after 4 p.m., the statement added. Both officers were taken off street duty pending an investigation,...

MISSION, S.D. - The small, brick post office in Mission, South Dakota, sees steady business most days as people wait outside to allow one family at a time to check for mail at one of just four such depots scattered across the Rosebud Indian Reservation. With limited polling places on a reservation that’s roughly 2,000 square miles and officials pushing people to vote by mail amid the coronavirus pandemic, cramped post offices such as this one are a lifeline to preserving Native American’s right to vote. But voting right advocates fear it’s not enough. The slow-moving nature of mail on...

The nation stands on the cusp of the third and perhaps most notable political realignment in the past 160 years, as those on both sides of the political spectrum recognize that the 2020 election has evolved into a watershed moment in American history. Since 2016, the Ruling Class has recognized the existential threat Donald Trump poses to them. The power structure of the Ruling Class and the objectives of the left have been upended by him and his ongoing transformation of the Republican Party, threatening their status and sinecures. The Democrat party’s leftist political allies have acknowledged that he is...

A Gateway Pundit EXCLUSIVE story on yet another ballot covfefe in Oregon. 73 year old Richard Gonzalez succumbed to a variety of health complications on April 10th, 2020. The legally disabled military veteran lived out his final days in a nursing home near Portland, Oregon. So imagine the surprise when Gonzalez's voter registration card showed up in the mail at his friend's house in July of 2020, more than 3 months after Gonzalez passed. His friend, who we will call "John" to preserve anonymity and protect from retaliation, thought "Well, this is odd. I received a voter registration confirmation postcard...

Do you remember how crazy things got when the COVID-19 pandemic first hit the United States and widespread hoarding caused serious shortages of certain goods all over the United States? Well, it is starting to happen again. As we approach the end of 2020, a “perfect storm” of circumstances is causing the anxiety level of many Americans to go through the roof, and millions are preparing for the worst. I have been hearing from so many people that are deeply concerned about what the outcome of this presidential election could mean for our nation, and a lot of them truly...

Has your God-given right to freedom of assembly been deemed #nonessential? Have California bureaucrats deemed you as #nonessential? Our communities, our families, and our Judeo-Christian way of life are under attack. The California governor and bureaucracy have deemed our cherished freedoms as “Non-Essential”. They call us deplorables. They call us bitter-clingers. They call us smelly WalMart shoppers. They call us chumps. They call us non-essential. We are unapologetic and we are going to speak the truth. Nobody is “non-essential.” Together, we are an unstoppable force. A rally of the “Non-Essentials” on November 1 beginning at 5:30 p.m.at Temecula City Hall...

"To all those conservative women who go through hell for being conservative, who get beat up by the mainstream media for embracing your faith, being pro-life, being traditional in your family structure, you're a winner tonight," Graham told host Sean Hannity. "There's a seat at the table for you," the senator added.

Failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton supports former Vice President Joe Biden for president, but she’s really excited about the idea of Sen. Kamala Harris as Vice President. Clinton spoke with New York Times podcaster Kara Swisher about the 2020 election, where outlined Harris in glowing terms.

Watching the media scramble these last two weeks to save Joe Biden’s candidacy, I am reminded of a scene in Ray Bradbury’s 1953 dystopian sci-fi classic, Fahrenheit 451, 451 degrees Fahrenheit being the temperature at which paper burns. In the novel, the state employs “firemen” to burn paper lest the few civilians who care about books avail themselves of information the state does not want them to have. During the Biden stretch run, the firemen on the left have shredded what is left of their reputations as journalists to destroy information the Deep State does not want their audiences to...
