American gun owners could face tens of billions of dollars in new taxes to keep the guns they already own under Democrat Joe Biden's gun ban and tax plan. At least 20 million rifles and 150 million ammunition magazines would be caught up in the sales ban and registration scheme Biden touted on the campaign trail, according to a National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) report. The new taxes would cost Americans more than $34 billion, according to a Washington Free Beacon analysis. NSSF told the Washington Free Beacon the sheer number of affected guns and magazines could pose a significant...

The dinner party Gov. Gavin Newsom apologized this week for attending — saying it was a mistake to dine with so many people amid the coronavirus pandemic — included two guests who lobby on behalf of California doctors, the very profession that has been imploring people to refrain from social activity that could hasten the virus’ spread. Dustin Corcoran, CEO of the California Medical Association, and Janus Norman, the group’s lobbyist and senior vice president, joined Newsom and several other guests Nov. 6 at the French Laundry, an exclusive restaurant in Napa County.

According to international studies expert Jin Canrong, Chinese troops used a “microwave” weapon to force Indian soldiers to retreat by making them violently sick, The Times of London reported. The electromagnetic weapon, which cooks the human tissue of enemy troops, “turned the mountain tops into a microwave oven” and made the Indian soldiers vomit, Canrong told his students in Beijing. China’s forces decided to use the weapons because the altitude was too high to fight against a team of Tibetan mountaineering specialists, Jin said. News of the weapon’s alleged use in the Himalayas comes as China and India discuss ways...

"It is a very unusual day", said Social Democrat MP Helge Lindh as he approached the German Bundestag by foot Wednesday morning. He was referring to crowds of protesters gathering outside the parliament building. Their goal was to stop the new infection protection law, intended to make it easier for the government to swiftly introduce lockdown measures in the fight against the coronavirus pandemic. Several hundred demonstrators defied bans to protest outside the parliament buildings and in the surrounding government district. Some protesters even tried to block access to the building, before the protests were dissolved by police. "It must...

Former White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon predicted that the globalist structure trying to steal the presidential election will be defeated inside of two weeks as election fraud evidence continues to pour in. On his show War Room: Pandemic Tuesday, Bannon reminded his audience that Big Tech and the media’s efforts to silence him and other truth-tellers from speaking out about election fraud will fail. “Everybody, I want to reiterate, you’re changing world history,” Bannon said. “This is why they’re trying to shut down the show, this is why they’re trying to suppress your voice.” “And here’s the reason: Donald...

For those of us who have been critical of the growing anti-free speech movement in the Democratic Party, the Biden transition team just took an ominous turn. The New York Post reports that Biden tapped Richard Stengel to take the “team lead” position on the US Agency for Global Media, including Voice of America, the Middle East Broadcasting Networks and Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty. As I previously addressed in a column, Stengel has been one of the most controversial figures calling for censorship and speech controls. For a president-elect who just called for everyone to “hear each other,” he picked...

Now, the DoH has released a list of frequently asked questions related to the new mask rules, which are now in effect. For starters, a news release said that the updated parts of the order “strengthen it” compared to what was put into place way back on April 15. Highlights of what’s new, per the Wolf administration, include: Masks are required to be worn indoors and outdoors if you are away from your...

Pfizer's and BioNTech's vaccine candidate has been crushing it in clinical trials. Their latest data, revealed Wednesday morning, shows that the candidate is 95 percent effective and has consistent results across "age, gender, race and ethnicity demographics." On top of that, they've reported no serious safety concerns. "Primary efficacy analysis demonstrates BNT162b2 to be 95% effective against COVID-19 beginning 28 days after the first dose;170 confirmed cases of COVID-19 were evaluated, with 162 observed in the placebo group versus 8 in the vaccine group."

Please use the source url above to access the case Docket. The last entry, made November 18th, is quite involved. I understand that Rudy argued the case for about 5 hours. I would appreciate it if FReepers knowledgable in legal matters could dissect and help us sort through this. It appears to me Judge is giving the Trump team an opportunity to cure some matters before proceeding to an Evidentiary hearing. Is that correct?

[Note: This piece contains heavy video content.] The modern Democrat Party has evolved into little more than a hate and death cult, and never was that on more stark display than at yesterday’s meeting of the Wayne Count Canvassing Board in Detroit, Michigan. During the course of the hearing, the two Republican members of that Board were subjected to violent threats, lasting assaults on their reputations and doxxing of their school-aged children from Democrat witnesses.

Voters who want a recount in their precinct can contact their county election boards in groups of at least three, producing affidavits that allege fraud or error. County election boards must resolve such claims before they issue certified counts, due Nov. 23. There are about 9,100 precincts across the state. Once a county declares it has finished its count — a date that will vary — a five-day period starts, during which groups of at least three voters in a precinct can assert claims of fraud or error before their county’s common pleas court. In each precinct, that requires the...
