DUBAI, United Arab Emirates - Iran’s foreign minister is alleging the killing of a scientist linked to the country’s disbanded military nuclear program has “serious indications” of an Israeli role. Mohammad Javad Zarif made the statement Friday on Twitter. Israel has declined to comment, though Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu himself has named the scientist slain outside of Tehran. “Terrorists murdered an eminent Iranian scientist today. This cowardice - with serious indications of Israeli role - shows desperate warmongering of perpetrators,” Zarif wrote. An Iranian scientist that Israel alleged led the Islamic Republic’s military nuclear program until its disbanding in the...

Representative-elect Lauren Boebert is trolling her home state of Colorado’s local shutdown orders by finding a way to bypass them this Thanksgiving.In an interview published Wednesday with Fox News, Boebert (R-Colo.) slammed local orders limiting personal gatherings to 10 people in an effort to stop the spread of coronavirus, arguing that it was absurd to curtail the number of people who could gather for Thanksgiving when the state permitted gatherings of up to 30 for funerals.

Attention moderators. This is a test thread to see if the fixes I was suggested work with an identical post I had troubles with on my links. It has been said that while money is the biggest stumbling block to the rich, worry is the biggest stumbling block to the poor. However, I have read about many rich people worrying about their money and I have known many poor people who have stumbled with what little money they did have. We live in the most powerfully affluent society the world has ever seen, not since Solomon ruled Israel has a...

Joe Biden was playing at being president today, giving a ‘Thanksgiving message.’ But Joe Biden being Joe Biden meant that not only was he falsely assuming a role he didn’t have, namely president, but that he also was going to just completely mess it up. First, he told people it was their “patriotic duty” to “forego family traditions” for Thanksgiving because of the Wuhan coronavirus. en urges nation to 'forgo family traditions' on Thanksgiving https://t.co/B6FcGnsd4T pic.twitter.com/n9Se6vCdNB — New York Post (@nypost) November 25, 2020They couldn’t even get the attempted “halo” picture right with the pictures, instead it came out looking...

There is perhaps no less self-aware, or no less shameless if you rightly assume bad motives, of a group than the mainstream media. They manage to routinely do the very things they are currently denigrating others for, all the while pretending to be vastly morally and intellectually superior. Pushing conspiracy theories over the last four years may be the most egregious example of this, with CNN and MSNBC, among many others, essentially becoming no better than Alex Jones (and at least he’s entertaining).Remember, these are the same people who insisted for four long years that Donald Trump was a Russian...

Sidney Powell filed lawsuits in both Michigan and Georgia on Wednesday night alleging multiple constitutional violations and seeking to have the elections decertified.But people soon noticed something funny when they tried to share the link to her suits on her website on Twitter. As the Epoch Times reported, such efforts were flagged with “Something went wrong, but don’t fret—let’s give it another shot” and another message warning of an unsafe link if you went to the site, “We can’t complete this request because this link has been identified by Twitter or our partners as being potentially harmful.

How many times have you heard this: "It's time..." Well, it IS time for a change and... I really do believe that the Michigan triumvirate of Whitmer (D), Nessel (D) and Benson (D) conspired, coordinated and engaged in systemic election fraud with the cooperation of local (D) election officials and individuals who took it upon themselves to vote illegally. Not only that, they were aware of the plan's involvement of foreign bad actors and communist governments well in advance of the COVID-19 pandemic's appearance on the global stage of events. Supported by members of the Michigan (D) legisla- ture, these...

Universities’ profligate spending habits have caught up with them after substantial losses in student enrollments due to COVID-19. As undergraduate enrollment fell by 4.4 percent and students had fewer “on-campus experiences,” universities desperately began laying off employees. Some even have plans to consolidate departments and entire campuses. Those actions spell trouble for the future of the shared governance tradition on American campuses. Shared governance allows faculty to participate in determining university priorities pertaining to administrative hires, education policies, and the budget. Faculty participation in university governance allows academic and educational interests to have a seat at the decision-making table. While...

The Kraken is crackin' some heads, now. Hallelujah! His will be done and so will these traitors, who have stolen our election, be done very soon. God's got this!

The root of what socialism leads to is suffering, starvation, and misery. The “why” is that socialism is both morally and theoretically bankrupt; because of that, socialism leads to only bad things. Socialism is a morally bankrupt ideology because it is all about handing control to the leaders and limiting freedom, as Friedman hints at. Individual liberty is a natural right; it was given by God to all humanity. Systems like socialism that restrain that liberty in unjust ways are morally bankrupt. As a result of its moral bankruptcy, socialism leads to misery and suffering; humans cannot naturally live in...

Well, here we go kid-do’s… After the majority of Americans concluded THEIR “godless” Thanksgiving without Almighty God and ALL the realities of Who He is, which is dictated by His HOLY WORD it is “Black Friday”. America’s Thanksgiving and Holiday season now consists of thanking THEIR god’s of self narcissism, human efforts and personal ambitions, while of course eating, drinking and watching football. My friends don’t get me wrong… there is absolutely nothing wrong with enjoying a fine diner with your loved ones, eating good food, stuffing yourself, watching football, exchanging gifts, rejoicing over the work of you hands and...

Rin, who hails from Tokyo, was never allowed to grow her hair as a child. She was on the girl’s football team so had to keep it short, but when she became an adult, she decided to take control of her hair and use it as a “weapon of expression”. The last time she cut her hair was 15 years ago, and now her straight, black locks measure 5ft 10in, a good 4 inches more than Rin herself. Although her hair sometimes gets in the way when doing the simplest of tasks, like changing her clothes, the Japanese dancer and...

Thanksgiving is a time to look back in gratitude on all that has been good in the past year. It’s also a chance to award the bad — and politicians have given lots from which to pick. Below, we award some of the dumbest or most blatantly hypocritical politicians. The Easily Foreseen Consequences Award: Minneapolis City CouncilEarlier this month, the Minneapolis City Council spent nearly $500,000 to hire outside police to help protect the city from a rise in crime, violence, and shootings. The council may not have needed to make the expenditure had they not voted to eliminate the...

Trump’s continued insistence that he won is scary. The President of the United States, with access to the nuclear codes, is living in a fantasy world.

So easy to consume, even Democrats can understand... A summary of Election-Rigging Claims Overview of Vote Fraud Allegations

In his new book A Promised Land, former president Obama claims he sought “a broader struggle for a fair, just and generous society.” That quest brought criticisms including: “how whites avoid taking the full measure of the legacy of slavery and Jim Crow, and their own racial attitudes. How this left Black people with a psychic burden, expected to constantly swallow legitimate anger and frustration in the name of some far-off ideal.” This recalls a theme from the author’s first book. “Black people have a reason to hate. That’s just how it is. For your sake, I wish it...

More Salem than Thanksgiving - Coronavirus panic has set America back hundreds of years Had King James’s Privy Council contained a proto-Anthony Fauci in 1620, there might not have been a Thanksgiving holiday for the current-day Fauci and his peers to cancel four centuries later. The transatlantic voyage that brought the Pilgrims to Plymouth Rock would have been unthinkable under the ‘stay safe’ philosophy that now governs American life. Nearly half the 102 occupants of the Mayflower died in their first year of settlement at Plymouth, sometimes at a rate of three a day. Such a mortality rate was predictable....
