CNN's New Day was in deep-fret mode this morning, with hosts and guests feeding each other's fears about President Trump potentially refusing to leave office. Why can't they just cover what happened yesterday, instead of always imagining the lurid worst about tomorrow? Substitute co-host Erica Hill ratcheted up the paranoia, saying: "He’s increasingly desperate. It’s clear . . . When does that desperation really become dangerous, if it hasn’t already?"Anna Palmer, for the moment still a senior Washington correspondent for Politico, was only too happy to take the hint: "That’s the question everyone’s asking. No one knows what his end...

...Pope Francis famously stated, “Is it right to take a human life to solve a problem? It’s like hiring a hitman.” By that same standard of comparison, it’s fair to assert that presumptive President-elect Joe Biden is in the process of assembling a collective “mafia”... The most striking example to date is Biden’s incendiary Dec. 7 announcement that he wants California Attorney General Xavier Becerra to serve as his secretary of Health and Human Services. As attorney general and previously as a California state legislator, Becerra has prioritized the advancement of abortion and the persecution of pro-life perspectives, to a...

Rep. Devin Nunes accused the Justice Department and FBI officials of misleading Congress regarding documents Republicans sought as part of their investigation into abuse of the FISA program. Nunes said Sunday that he plans to submit criminal referrals to the Justice Department regarding information found in newly declassified FBI messages from Peter Strzok.

In a 16 page draft copy of proposed rulemaking/guidance specifying “Objective Factors for Classifying Stablizing Braces”, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) has proposed entering into rulemaking to delineate the objective factors considered when “evaluating firearms with an attached stabilizing brace to determine whether they are considered firearms under the National Firearms Act (‘NFA’) and/or the Gun Control Act (‘GCA)” and the Department of Justice’s plan to “subsequently implement a separate process for current possessors of stabilizer-equipped firearms to choose to register such firearms in compliance with the NFA.”While the proposed rulemaking/guidance has not yet been published...

I know I’m not the brightest bulb on the tree, but I am getting the impression Democrats don’t want us to know the truth about the election.Let’s take a look at a couple stories lost in the holiday shuffle.Maricopa County Election Officials Ignore Subpoena on Dominion MachinesLast week, the Arizona State Senate served the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors with a subpoena, ordering Dominion voting machines in the county secured, a forensic audit and a scanned ballot audit.The Maricopa County Board of Supervisors ignored the subpoena.

The most valuable lessons of 'Home Alone' require a little living first. The film offers much more than just Kevin McCallister vs. The Wet Bandits.Finally, after putting in our time, we were released to the basement. Through what little childhood patience we possessed, me, my sister, and my cousins had satisfied The Rule in force at every family gathering at Grandma and Grandpa Lawson’s house: Before you can leave the table after dinner, you first have to sit quietly for at least 15 minutes or talk about “boring” things with the adults. That was The Rule — for all we...

Michigan’s Governor, Gretchen Whitmer (D), has used every tactic at her disposal to keep the State of Michigan in an almost terminal lockdown because of the COVID virus. But the Michigan State Legislature has started to unravel the convoluted web of her authority. In an early vote Friday morning, the Michigan House of Representatives voted to repeal the Emergency Powers of the Governor Act of 1945; the legislation used by Whitmer to claim authority to use public health orders to close down her state. The 1945 Emergency Powers law authorized the governor to declare a state of emergency but it...

There has been a lot of buzz and an equal amount of confusion surrounding members of the House and Senate objecting to electoral votes in contested states when they hold a joint session of Congress on January 6th.

This comes down to one event happening between now and then for this election to get corrected.Let’s start by clarifying the process. The two chambers meet on January 6th to officially count the sealed votes from electors. Currently, former Vice President Joe Biden is in the lead....

... Fetal Scalps and Back Flesh Grafted Onto Rats and MiceIn September, researchers at University of Pittsburgh published their work on the development of humanized mice and rats with “full-thickness human skin.” .... Full-thickness human skin from fetuses was grafted onto rodents while simultaneously co-engrafting the same fetus’s lymphoid tissues and hematopoietic stem cells from the liver, so that the rodent models were humanized with organs and skin from the same child. These “human Skin and Immune System (hSIS)-humanized” mouse and rat models are meant to aid the study of the immune system when the skin is infected. To make...

Her Israeli connection, however, prompted a vicious outbreak of antisemitism, with tweets calling for her exclusion because of her Jewish heritage and others such as “Hitler forgot to exterminate you, Miss Provence.” The Conseil Représentatif des Institutions juives...
