Some Republicans are still fighting for President Donald Trump. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, and Republican Sen. Roy Blunt blocked a motion on Tuesday that would have allowed the Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies to publicly accept that the upcoming inauguration will be for President-elect Joe Biden. Democrat Rep. Steny Hoyer brought the “motion to affirm that inaugural preparation,” which would commence for Joe Biden. Republicans on the committee stoutly refused.

Minneapolis City Council members who tried unsuccessfully to dismantle the police department in response to George Floyd’s death are voting Wednesday on whether to shrink it, a move that could imperil the entire city budget because the mayor is threatening to use his veto to protect public safety amid soaring crime rates. The plan, which supporters call “Safety for All,” is the latest version of the “defund the police” movement that Minneapolis and other cities have considered since Floyd’s May 25 death ignited mass demonstrations against police brutality and a nationwide reckoning with racism. Eleven of the 13 council members...

Yesterday, we reported that Olivia Jade Giannulli, the daughter of former “Fuller House” star Lori Loughlin, gave a tell-all interview about her family’s involvement in the college admissions scandal that has landed both of her parents in prison. Now, however, this move has backfired on Olivia, as social media users are ripping her apart for being “tone deaf.”

No matter how many recounts lame-duck U.S. president Donald Trump finagles, he'll never win Georgia. He'll keep losing at the ballot box, where president-elect Joe Biden garnered 49.5 per cent of the vote, compared with 49.3 per cent for Trump. And he won't win in the courtroom, where judges have rejected Team Trump's legal challenges with the fervour of a prime Dikembe Mutombo. We could attribute Biden's margin of victory to several Georgia municipalities, densely populated blue islands in a largely red state, but let's focus on Fulton County, which encompasses downtown Atlanta, and where locals could vote early at...

Everyone needs to drop big tech like we did. Build your network on your own platform. Play by your own rules. Populist Press will never be controlled by Big Tech. After hit piece yesterday, YouTube used that as an excuse to target free speech yet again. Right Side Broadcasting Network (RSBN) has covered almost every single Trump appearance, interview or rally since it was first rally since it was first launched in July 2015, and has been endorsed by the President-elect himself. While there was speculation that Mr Trump would launch an official Trump TV if he lost the election,...

The U.N human rights chief says she expects the U.S. administration of President-elect Joe Biden will be “much, much better” when it comes to human rights, and warned of shrinking “democratic space” in Hong Kong — saying her office will be monitoring the rights situation there. Michelle Bachelet spoke to reporters in Geneva in a catch-all news conference to recap the year and look ahead to 2021. She cited concerns about the inequalities exposed by the COVID-19 pandemic and systemic racism like that highlighted by the Black Lives Matter movement. Bachelet hailed “a series of promising pledges” by Biden, on...

Joe Biden plans to move quickly against guns, adding the issue to his list of first executive orders, according to his top policy aide. Stef Feldman, the national policy director of Biden's presidential campaign, included the Democrat’s gun plan in a list of initial executive actions set to be unleashed after Inauguration Day. Speaking in a Zoom briefing hosted by Georgetown University’s Institute of Politics and Public Service, she said that Biden is planning to “make big, bold changes through executive action, not just on policing and climate like we talked about previously, but in healthcare and education on gun...

Tesla CEO and billionaire Elon Musk announced that he’s moved from California’s Silicon Valley to Texas on Tuesday. Musk made the announcement at a Wall Street Journal virtual event, and he didn’t have the kindest words for his former state. “They do tend to get a little complacent, a little entitled, and then they don’t win the championship anymore,” he said of the far-left state. “And I think they’re taking them for granted a little bit.” Musk predicted that Silicon Valley, the longtime home of Big Tech monopolies, would decline. “I think we’ll see some reduction in the influence of...

As Texas sues alleging MASSIVE CONSTITUTIONAL VOTE INSECURITY VIOLATIONS by multiple key swing states in the 2020 election, another damning piece of evidence of voter fraud has come to light, And, once again. it is in Pennsylvania. A report submitted by Representative Frank Ryan in Pennsylvania and co-signed by 14 other Pennsylvania State Representatives allege 400,000 mail-in ballots suddenly appeared in the public record the day after the election. According to their filing, which is now known as the "Ryan Report," this incredible inconsistency in election reporting, in addition to more than 50,000 ballots with same-day delivery or before and...

I'm no math wiz, but that's a whole lot of zeroes.......... Joe Biden’s “victory” that was manufactured in the early morning hours following Election Day was improbable. We knew that. But when we put the numbers to the test based on known data and reliable prediction models, it turns from improbable to outright impossible according to a professor named in the lawsuit filed with the Supreme Court by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton. Rutgers Professor Charles J. Cicchetti, Ph.D., worked out the numbers based on the lead President Trump had before vote counting was suddenly and inexplicably halted in the...

A New York Times article published Tuesday claims that even after people receive a dose of either the Pfizer or Moderna COVID-19 vaccine, they will need to wear a mask in public, marking a stark contrast to what elected leaders and health officials have implied about a return to “normal” once a vaccine arrives. “Here’s Why Vaccinated People Still Need to Wear a Mask,” the headline reads.

In George Orwell’s dystopian classic, 1984, the citizens of Oceania were required to attend an assembly called the ‘Two-Minutes Hate.’ During these sessions, images of a person named Emmanuel Goldstein and his followers were projected on a screen, the very sight of which caused the assembly to unleashed a torrent of rage and disgust at the images, shouting obscenities, shaking fists, threatening vengeance, spitting, etc. A narrator enumerated Goldstein’s crimes as his sheep-like image spoke of state opposition. This explosion of hate and insults continued for the next two minutes, and then the session was ended. In Orwell’s book, Goldstein...

Americans waiting for Republicans in Congress to acknowledge Joe Biden as the president-elect may have to keep waiting until January as GOP leaders stick with President Donald Trump’s litany of legal challenges and unproven claims of fraud. Tuesday’s deadline for states to certify their elections — once viewed as a pivot point for Republicans to mark Biden’s win — came and went without much comment. Next week’s Dec. 14 Electoral College deadline may produce just a few more congratulatory GOP calls to Biden. Increasingly, GOP lawmakers say the Jan. 6 vote in Congress to accept the Electoral College outcome may...

Generally, the Marxists of the left are, like Karl Marx, unapologetic atheists. They slander religious people, openly advocate against religious ideas and practices, and advocate for policies that are antithetical to a religious and moral society. However, come election time, they are forced to reckon with the fact that most of America is still, in fact, a religious society. So, to make themselves seem more electable, the Democrats occasionally pretend that they are religious. Recently, they have been claiming that Joe Biden is a Catholic, despite his support of anti-Christian policies and support for a part that stands against God....

Billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe, a Leave campaigner in the run-up to the 2016 Brexit referendum, has confirmed a new 4x4 vehicle will be built in France. It ends hopes his Grenadier off-roader, based on the original Land Rover, would be made at a new plant in Wales. Those plans were put on hold in July while Mr Ratcliffe's Ineos Automotive negotiated buying Mercedes-Benz's Hambach site, in Moselle. He said on Tuesday that Hambach offered a "unique opportunity".

Perhaps 'Becerra' is not the easiest name, but Joe Biden butchered it twice and also garbled the name of his Cabinet department.

Noted Fox News pundit Tucker Carlson has often been none of the few bright spots on a network whose continued leftward tilt is no longer possible not to notice. For example, his commentaries on the true pandemic facts and how manufactured COVID hysteria has been used to carve out huge exceptions to our constitutional liberties have been on point. But on Thursday Tucker Carlson tested positive for bloviating stupidity in surrendering to the conventional wisdom that charges of systemic computer hacking of our elections bi pro-Biden foreign actors. At issue is the Thursday press conference held by Team Trump attorneys...
