Last month, the Akonadi Foundation was touting “occupations” of houses by the activists it backs. The “occupations” were said to “reclaim” the houses from real estate “speculators”. The hypocrisy was obvious considering that the foundation is the project of Quinn Delaney and Wayne Jordan. Jordan is a major real estate developer and Democrat donor. The lefty power couple have their own multi-million dollar places in Piedmont and Manhattan. Quite a few homeless people could be housed there if they were occupied and reclaimed. Not only do Jordan and Delaney enjoy the good life, but their son, aspiring rapper TMG Fresh,...

A day after golf icon Jack Nicklaus felt the need to inform the world of what was already pretty obvious, NHL Hall of Famer and Boston Bruins legend Bobby Orr made it known that he would also be voting for Donald Trump in the upcoming U.S. election by buying a full-page ad in Friday's New Hampshire Union Leader endorsing the current president.

Thanks to President Trump’s leadership, America has the most resilient economy in the world. This morning, we learned that the economy grew 33.1% on an annualized basis in a single quarter, by far the largest in recorded history. The United States has now regained the majority of its pandemic-related loss of output, and we are exceeding all of the experts’ expectations.This super V-shaped recovery is even stronger than the headline figures suggest. The economy is firing on all cylinders: consumption rose 41 percent last quarter, housing was up 59 percent, and private business investment soared 83 percent. If that was...

HunterBiden, Burisma, and Corruption: The Impact on U.S.Government Policy and Related Concerns U.S. Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs U.S. Senate Committee on Finance Majority Staff Report Conclusion "The records acquired by the Committees show that Hunter Biden and his family were involved in a vast financial network that connected them to foreign nationals and foreign governments across the globe." "Hunter Biden and Archer, in particular, formed significant and consistent financial relationships with the corrupt oligarch Mykola Zlochevsky during their time working for Burisma and their firms made millions of dollars from that association while Joe Biden was vice...

I worked as MAGA poll observer today. We watch AB (absentee ballots) get "pre-processed" (the mailed AB ballots taken out of mailed envelopes, and recorded as "received" by the town clerks). If you used an A.B. to vote, your ballot will NOT BE OPENED & run through the Voting machine... until this Tues (Election Day). So - if you or someone you know made the mistake of voting **globalist corruption** there is still have time to CHANGE your vote -- to MAGA.

Why are President Trump’s rallies packed while Biden’s rallies are deserted? Where were all the Democrats who joined in the Black Lives Matter riots, who packed the streets of D.C. for the Women’s March, who are wailing in front of the Supreme Court and burning down Portland? The Democrats aren’t campaigning for Joe Biden, but against Donald J. Trump. The Biden-Harris ticket is a placeholder, two candidates picked by Wall Street and Hollywood, by corporate donors looking for the best angle, bringing together a friend of segregationists and the woman who accused him of racism, and then negotiated with the...

Joe Biden shouts gibberish

I suggest that the Walter Wallace Jr. protestors in Philadelphia become police officers, and show us the proper way to respond to a dangerous serial criminal who is running at them while waving a knife Protestors in Philadelphia assaulted a bunch of police officers because they are mad that a police officer shot and killed Walter Wallace Jr., a violent serial criminal who was running at him while waving a knife.Instead of assaulting police officers, I suggest that these protestors become police officers, and then they can show us the proper way for a police officer to respond to a dangerous...

No leader in US history has been as supportive of Israel as Donald Trump, according to Josh Reinstein, director of the Knesset Christian Allies Caucus (KCAC) and president of the Israel Allies Foundation (IAF). “Donald Trump is the most pro-Israel president that we’ve ever had,” Reinstein tells The Jerusalem Report, tipping Trump to sweep the November 3 presidential election. “If I had a prediction, and this is in no official capacity, this is just Josh Reinstein speaking, I think that Donald Trump’s going to win it, and he’s going to win it pretty big.” Reinstein recently published a book titled...

I have some cash parked on the sidelines (stable investment) in my companies 401k. With the little pull back we've seen, strong GDP numbers, possible CV19 vaccine on the horizon and the election, it may a buying opportunity, or maybe not. I only have the option to buy (or sell) at the closing price of the day. Thinking of picking up some shares of a S&P 500 tracker fund we have available as an investment at the days end. I'm definitionally not looking investment advise, just wondering how fellow Freepers are feeling about the market going forward?

In 2020, fan girls everywhere appear to have pivoted from fangirling over Harry Styles to fangirling over science (OK, and still a little bit of Harry Styles). The most recent example? Kelly Ripa. And the boy catching her eye is none other than Dr. Anthony Fauci himself. Dr. Anthony Fauci quickly became an icon this year as one of the main figures leading the country through the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Fauci even told InStyle in July, “With all due modesty, I think I'm pretty effective." As always, Dr. Fauci is right. (Although, we'd definitely give him more credit and say...

Cruise News CDC Issues Framework for Conditional Sailing Order Until November 2021 The CDC has today announced that the No-Sail-Order will no longer be in effect from November 1, 2020. Instead, the CDC has announced a framework for a Conditional Sailing Order. While the Industry anticipated the favorable decision, the move can still be described as surprising. Dr. Redfield, the Centres of disease control director, had stated last month he would prefer a No-Sail Order to be in effect until February at the least. This decision comes after months of intense deliberations between the cruise lines, White House, and CDC....

Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner (D) on Friday offered a warning to individuals who may try to act as uncertified poll watchers in the state during next week's elections. “I’ve got a jail cell, and I’ve got criminal charges and you can stand in front of a Philadelphia jury — which, by the way, is a diverse jury — and you can explain why you thought it was OK to come to Philly and steal our votes,” Krasner said during an interview on CNN. “This is the birthplace of democracy. We’re not doing this," Krasner added. "Wannabe fascists stay home,...
