According to 60 Minutes, Pelosi and her husband have participated in at least 8 IPO’s. 60 Minutes reports that the Pelosis purchased 5,000 shares of Visa Stock at $44 per share. Two days later it was trading at $64. Legislature to block these types of things never made it to the floor of the House. That means they invested $220,000 and in two days that turned into $320,000. How many of you would like to make $100,000 in two days, with the snap of a finger? Pelosi refused an interview with 60 minutes. Watch the special below, it’s very very...

Utah authorities are trying to determine if the hiker concocted the tale about going missing to defraud people donating to GoFundMe Holly Courtier, the mom who supposedly went missing for 12 days in Utah’s Zion Park, is now the subject of a criminal probe, Crime Online reports. On October 18, the 38-year-old mom turned up alive and unharmed in the park. In the days since, park and law enforcement officials have heavily scrutinized Holly Courtier’s claims that she had gone missing and somehow managed to survive on her own for nearly two weeks. For example, while Holly Courtier’s family has...

A second laptop belonging to Hunter Biden, son of former Vice President Joe Biden, was reportedly seized in February during a raid on a psychiatrist by the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). Hunter Biden was reportedly not the target of the raid. NBC News first reported the best Friday afternoon at the end of an article in which it defended its reporting — or lack thereof — about the emails on an abandoned laptop, which purportedly connect Joe Biden to his son’s businesses. The first laptop was seized by the Federal Bureau of Investigation in December 2019. NBC reported on the...

Of all the revelations about Biden family members cashing in on Joe Biden’s influence — revelations arising from Ukraine, China, Iraq, Romania, Kazakhstan, and other places — those relating to Ukraine are likely the most damning. Certainly, the revelations relating to Ukraine are the ones that most definitively involve criminal conduct. After all, Ukraine is the country where Joe admitted (actually, bragged) on tape about threatening to withhold a billion dollars of U.S. aid unless a prosecutor got fired — a prosecutor who happened to be investigating the company where Joe’s son Hunter was getting $1 million per year to...

Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Secretary Ben Carson dunked on LeBron James on Thursday after cable comedian Trevor Noah referenced the NBA star in a joke mocking Carson. Carson was a surprise guest at an Evangelicals for Trump event in Grandville, Michigan, on Thursday evening during which he implored supporters to talk about religion and politics with their family and friends. Talk about “the things that are important to you, not about sports and entertainment. I mean, that’s okay, but really, is that what life is all about?” he asked. “Doesn’t matter that much if you can sink a basketball,”...

Why not educate people on how to fortify their bodies against their likely inevitable exposure to the SARS-CoV-2 virus rather than selling them the false promise of avoiding the virus without any knowledge of how deal with it? Why are the politicians peddling medical advice while the health care industry is selling us politics? At present, there is no effective way to stop the spread of or somehow hide or run from the coronavirus. There is also no vaccine and there is unlikely to ever be a fully effective one, especially for the most vulnerable people. The best tool we...

“Florida, which has 29 electoral votes, is considered vital to Trump's reelection bid and a loss there would be a huge blow...But Biden is foundering with Cuban voters, a key Latino voting bloc in the state. According to the poll, Trump holds almost a 50 percentage point lead over Biden, 71% to 23% among Cuban voters.” (USA Today, 10/30) In brief, a yuuuuge majority of the Americans who’ve experienced socialism in the flesh support Trump and vehemently reject Biden-Harris. But fear not! The brainiacs at The New Yorker have plumbed the reason: “How Pro-Trump Disinformation Is Swaying a New Generation...

NEWS RELEASE SUMMARY – October 30, 2020 SAN DIEGO – Former U.S. Navy Chief Petty Officer Brooks Alonzo Parks was sentenced today to 27 months in prison and $25,405.76 in restitution for federal bribery conspiracy charges by U.S. District Judge Janis L. Sammartino.Parks is the latest U.S. Navy official to be sentenced in the wide-ranging corruption and fraud investigation involving foreign defense contractor Leonard Glenn Francis and his Singapore-based company, Glenn Defense Marine Asia (GDMA)."Parks traded on his important position of trust, selling his loyalty to a foreign defense contractor," said U.S. Attorney Robert S. Brewer. "Today’s sentence reinforces...

For all the geezers out there: When one door closes and another door opens, you’re probably in prison. To me, "drink responsibly" means don't spill it. Age 60 might be the new 40, but 9:00 PM is the new midnight. It's the start of a brand new day and I'm off like a herd of turtles. The older I get, the earlier it gets late. When I say, "The other day," I could be referring to any time between yesterday and 15 years ago. I remember being able to get up without making sound effects. I had my patience tested....

On Halloween in 1589, the “Werewolf of Bedburg” was put to a horrible death for a supposed slew of crimes committed in lupine form in the environs of the German city of Cologne. Our knowledge of the strange case of Peter Stubbe comes primarily from a single surviving account, and with many of the potential supplementary sources lost to the ravages of time and war, interpretations are inevitably speculative. Stubbe reportedly confessed under (or facing) torture to having practiced witchcraft and claimed to have received a magic belt from the infernal powers enabling him to transform into a wolf. The...

          LOS ANGELES – A Pasadena man pleaded guilty today to a federal charge of conspiring to kidnap a Chinese national who was violently abducted from a San Gabriel parking lot, and whose parents were extorted for $2 million in ransom before the victim died from his injuries.          Anthony Valladares, 28, pleaded guilty to a single-count information charging him with conspiracy to kidnap. He has been in federal custody since July 14, when he was arrested on a criminal complaint in this case.          According to his plea agreement, Valladares admitted to conspiring with others, including Chinese nationals Guangyao Yang,...

What if Team Trump already anticipated the ballot extension that the state Supremes violated established state law, and Roberts and the SCOTUS libs upholding it? So now the Dims are spending extra resources in PA, thinking that this will be Trump's Waterloo. While Trump is going after states like MN, AZ, and *gasp* even CA may flip to him? I think PA is a huge head fake. I think Trump will still win the state, but the media and Dems will be spending countless hours watching the Dems counting ballots and giving sob story interviews to people who's "vote didn't...

Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison said Friday on CNN’s “Cuomo Prime Time” that President Donald Trump has a real shot of winning Minnesota’s 10 electoral votes. Anchor Chris Cuomo said, “The president is putting a lot of money into your state. He’s greatly increased his ad buy, 1.2 million in TV advertising in the final week of the campaign, more than was spent in the preceding three weeks combined. Do you think the president has a real shot in Minnesota?” Ellison said, “Honestly, yeah, I do.

When physicists first thought up quantum computers in the 1980s, they sounded like a nice theoretical idea, but one probably destined to remain on paper. Then in 1995, 25 years ago this month, applied mathematician Peter Shor published a paper1 that changed that perception. Shor’s paper showed how quantum computers could overcome a crucial problem. The machines would process information as qubits — quantum versions of ordinary bits that can simultaneously be ‘0’ and ‘1’. But quantum states are notoriously vulnerable to noise, leading to loss of information. His error-correction technique — which detects errors caused by noise — showed...

Hannity interview of Robert Cahaly (Trafalgar) -- Best pollster from 2016 Hannity asked him about other pollsters who say they have made adjustments since 2016. C: They say they have made adjustments, but the next race we saw that had this "social desirability bias," you know shy voters was the race for Governor of Florida and they all got it wrong again so I don't buy that they've made any adjustments. I'll take Michael Moore's understanding of average people over all those pollsters in a bag every single day. I don't see them understanding people aren't straight forward when it...
