    As the drama continues to play out regarding the stolen election, there is frustration, a feeling of impotence and a burning anger within many across the country. But we are not nearly as impotent as we might believe. There are always ways of fighting back, but many seem not to realize this. And some quite substantial. Before beginning, this article revolves around whether or not there was an election steal, a fraud. If you don't share this view then you are in the wrong place. However, if you do believe it, as 50 to 60 Pct. of the entire country...

    The father of a woman whose body was found in a Staten Island park last year has been extradited from the Middle East and charged with her murder. Suspect Kabary Salem had been indicted in the murder of his daughter, Ola Salem, 25, by a Staten Island grand jury Nov. 5, law enforcement sources told The Post. The NYPD’s Regional Fugitive Task Force tracked him down Dec. 3, and brought him back to New York on Friday, sources said. Salem had fled the U.S. immediately after his daughter’s body was discovered in October 2019 by a jogger in Bloomingdale Park...

    News broke that former Vice President Joe Biden was actually considering Chinese communist-sympathizing Walt Disney Company Executive Chairman Robert Iger to become the U.S. ambassador to China. This potential appointment was enough to set Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) on the warpath against Disney’s ridiculous history of appeasing the Chinese government.

    Cataleya woke up with the knife on her neck. Her father QA wanted to kill the then 17-year-old because of her homosexuality. She barely survived. "He yelled, 'Are you gay? Are you gay?' and drew the knife through my throat. " With these words, Cataleya described in October 2019 how her father tried to kill her. Cataleya was still a man at the time and only 17 years old. Because of the serious injuries, Cataleya, then called Seran, had to be placed in an artificial coma. With a lot of will to live and luck, she survived her father's knife...

    Monday on FNC’s “The Daily Briefing,” Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) attacked his Democrat counterparts, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), for what he deemed “shenanigans” in holding up COVID-19 relief funding. McConnell told Fox News Channel’s Dana Perino the deal could have been made back in July.

    BAGHDAD (Reuters) - At least eight Katyusha rockets landed in Baghdad’s heavily fortified Green Zone in an attack targeting the U.S. Embassy, causing some minor damage on the compound on Sunday, the Iraqi military and the embassy said on Sunday. The Iraqi military said an “outlaw group” fired eight rockets. Most of the missiles hit a residential complex and a security checkpoint inside the zone, damaging buildings and cars and wounding one Iraqi soldier, a military statement said. Sirens blared from the embassy compound inside the zone, which houses government buildings and foreign missions. An anti-rocket system diverted one of...

    SF Chronicle ^ | 12/15/2020 | Mallory Moench
    After closing two massive budget holes this year, San Francisco faces a new deficit of $653.2 million over the next two fiscal years as COVID-19 surges and a strict economic shutdown continues to ravage the city’s finances. To close the gap, Mayor London Breed plans to direct departments Wednesday to slash costs, which could include painful layoffs and service cuts that have so far been mostly avoided. The city’s budget office projects a $411.1 million hole in the next fiscal year, which begins in July, and a $242.1 million deficit in the year after that. City leaders were hoping for...

    The American Mind ^ | 12/20/20 | Joel Kotkin
    California exhibits the largest gap between mid-level and upper-level wages in the nation. California’s level of inequality is greater than that of Mexico, and closer to that of Central American countries like Guatemala and Honduras than to what is common in “progressive” developed countries like Canada and Norway. Progressive policies, as applied here in California, have driven this widening gap. The coalition that rules the state—tech oligarchs, public employees, and green non-profits—have backed a draconian tax and regulatory environment that has reduced construction jobs and allowed manufacturing to stagnate, while policymakers have targeted the heavily unionized oil industry for extinction....

    Animal toxins are research targets owing to their therapeutic and biotechnological potential. Researchers at the Federal University of the ABC (UFABC), Federal University of São Paulo (UNIFESP) and Federal University of Ceará (UFC) in Brazil have discovered that VmCT1, an antimicrobial peptide isolated from the venom of the scorpion Vaejovis mexicanus, and its analogs kill Trypanosoma cruzi, the parasite that causes Chagas disease. Previous research has demonstrated VmCT1's potential against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, as well as tumor cells and other protozoans. "VmCT1 contains 13 amino acid residues and displayed good selectivity and high potency against all three developmental phases...

    Democrat Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam, who faced controversy for dressing in black face while in medical school, ordered a statue of Confederate General Robert E. Lee removed overnight from the United States Capitol. The Washington Post reported it will be replaced by a statue of Barbara Johns, who was a civil rights activist as a teen in Farmville, Virginia. “Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam (D) had requested the removal over the summer after a commission chartered by the General Assembly decided that a man who fought to uphold slavery was not a fitting symbol for a diverse and modern state,” the...

    Buckle up everybody, for I am here to defend and exalt turnips. In fact, I’d go so far as to claim that turnips, when mashed, are better than their potato counterparts, and a far more interesting vehicle for gravy. Cooked turnips are firm yet velvety, slightly nutty, and bring a bit more oomph to your holiday spread. But, full disclosure, my not all of my turnip-eating Christmases have been merry.

    Senator. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, called President Trump’s refusal to concede the 2020 election “really sad” and “embarrassing” on Sunday. “I understand the president is casting about, trying to find some way to have a different result than the one that was delivered by the American people,” Romney told CNN’s “State of the Union.” “It’s really sad in a lot of respects and embarrassing because the president could, right now, be writing the last chapter of this administration with a victory lap with regards to the vaccine.” “He could be going out championing this extraordinary success, and instead he’s leaving Washington...
