Suit claims Twitter’s censorship of Hunter Biden laptop articles falsely branded shop owner as ‘hacker.’ IIn a case certain to test the limits of legal immunity in the digital era, a Delaware shop owner embroiled in the Hunter Biden laptop controversy has filed a $500 million defamation lawsuit against Twitter alleging he was falsely portrayed as a hacker by the social media giant.

It’s impossible to sugarcoat this: The Presidential election of November 2020 was an unmitigated disaster to any sane-thinking person concerned with the good of America. While unintellectual, style-obsessed political simpletons cheer the outcome based strictly on emotional rooting interests, intelligent individuals who are more concerned with full employment, energy independence, military readiness and border security than identity politics, racial/gender quotas and the microaggression du jour realize that a “Biden” administration will set American economic prosperity and social progress back by decades. If the Democrats come into power, the government will pick the winners and losers and the country will devolve...

The official CCP posture is implacable anger against Japan for its imperialist scorched earth policy in China, but the fact gone down the memory hole is that during one phase of the CCP's holy Long March, Mao's forces, now called the PRA, fought with the Japanese against Chang Kai Shek's Nationalist Komingtang. This was in a footnote to Conservapedia's article on one of the most vile betrayers of the Chinese people, Owen Lattimore of the Rockefeller-funded Institute of Pacific Relations. That article is worth the read on its own. In July and August 1943, the Chinese Communist forces—in the midst...

The Ukrainian government released more audio recordings in September between Joe Biden and former Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko talking about controlling the country that’s just now receiving attention. “Today’s press conference is dedicated to new facts revealing international corruption and external governance of Ukraine,” Ukrainian MP Andriy Derkach said at a press conference. “DemoCorruptionists are very afraid because documents, numbers and shocking recordings support every word that we will voice today.” VIDEO AT LINK................... Leaked Biden audio begins at 24:25 Derkach then laid out three major instances of corruption Ukrainian officials found: “1. Evidence of withdrawal through financial ‘holes’ of...

A slight majority of Republicans said they want to see a “fresh face” run for President in 2024, while one-third indicated they would like to see “a candidate who has already run in the past,” says a December 21-2 poll by Rasmussen Reports. The question in the poll of 1,000 likely voters offered room for still-mourning Republicans to show support for a 2024 candidate younger than departing President Donald Trump, who would turn 78 during the 2024 race, and turn 82 in 2028.

1. DEAD SEA DEAD SEA BLOOMS FLORAL WONDERLAND FOR FIRST TIME: EZEKIEL’S PROPHECY COMING TO FRUITION? The Dead Sea has slowly been coming back to life, with sinkholes on the shores filling up with fish. But last winter, for the first time in memory, the shores filled with blossoming flowers. 2. PROPHECY APPEARS: RIVERS FLOW FROM JERUSALEM INTO THE DEAD SEA Breaking a 76-year record for rainfall, rivers flowed from Jerusalem to the Dead Sea, creating a prophetic vision of rivers flowing in the Judean Desert. RABBIS SAY, “IT’S TIME” 3. ISRAEL’S TOP RABBI: “I’M CURRENTLY IN DISCUSSIONS WITH THE...

Here’s what happens when you defund the police. – We’ve seen examples from communist Democrat-run cities all over the country now. From New York to Los Angeles and from Minneapolis to Seattle, cities whose Democrat leaders have taken action to cut major chunks out of their police force budgets are very predictably seeing massive spikes in violent crimes as a result. Things are no different in Portland, where the communist-Democrat city council cut $15 million of the police budget during the summer, even as violent riots were plaguing the city’s downtown district and surrounding neighborhoods. That action and the general...

Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel lashed out at President Trump after he posted a news article about her on Twitter. Trump shared a story about Nessel pursuing legal sanctions against attorneys who have raised questions and filed lawsuits about the legitimacy of the November election. “These lawyers are true patriots who are fighting for the truth and, obviously, getting very close. AG should be sanctioned,” Trump wrote on Twitter while linking to the story. He also posted it on Facebook. That triggered Nessel, who blasted the president in a series of tweets: “A patriot is a person who vigorously defends...

A team of astronomers, led by the University of Tokyo, Japan, used the Keck I telescope to measure the distance to the oldest galaxy in the Universe, which is located at the boundary of the observable Universe. The team hopes that their research on the oldest galaxy in the Universe, GN-z11, can shed light on a period of cosmological history when the Universe was only a few hundred million years old. Professor Nobunari Kashikawa from the Department of Astronomy at the University of Tokyo said: “From previous studies, the galaxy GN-z11 seems to be the farthest detectable galaxy from us,...

Even as Biden announces another climate apocalypse, here are five pieces of evidence showing that the Green movement is dangerously anti-human. Joe Biden announced Monday that carbon emissions threaten “the very existence of our planet.” Biden, of course, does not mean that the space rock that is earth will immolate; he means life will die. No matter what he means, though, Biden is wrong (again). This post introduces five pieces of evidence showing that the earth and mankind will survive (although we can always be better stewards of our earth) and that the green movement is invariably wrong because its...

President Trump has ended former President Obama's 12-year run as the most admired man in America, edging out his predecessor in the annual Gallup survey released Tuesday. Eighteen percent of the survey's respondents named Trump as their most admired man, compared to 15 percent who named Obama and 6 percent who named President-elect Joe Biden. Three percent named National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Anthony Fauci, while two percent said Pope Francis.

When the left says they want to silence us, arrest us, re-educate us, and utterly and completely destroy us, they mean it. And as we know all too well, they will use any means necessary. This is what tyrants do. And so, as patriots start to converge on Washington DC for Trump’s rally, the left is applying pressure to make it difficult for us to secure accommodations. First up is the Hotel Harrington which just announced it will be closed on January 4th, 5th and 6th in order to deny access to Trump supporters. They cite concerns about the Proud...

And in the home stretch of the 2020 “keep counting until morale improves” contest, Pennsylvania has currently pulled into the lead with this entry:A comparison of official county election results to the total number of voters who voted on November 3, 2020 as recorded by the Department of State shows that 6,962,607 total ballots were reported as being cast, while DoS/SURE system records indicate that only 6,760,230 total voters actually voted. Among the 6,962,607 total ballots cast, 6,931,060 total votes were counted in the presidential race, including all three candidates on the ballot and write-in candidates.The difference of 202,377 more...

This past year has been exceedingly difficult for many whose relatives and acquaintances unexpectedly passed away or became ill due to the worldwide COVID-19 plague. Many “progressive” governors have in strongarm fashion exploited the situation for political power purposes, callously subduing our population. We watched as our cities and innocent people were violently attacked by Antifa and BLM, all the while being excused, justified, and even exalted by the media and opinion shapers. American history, indeed Americanism itself, was maligned, the statues of our founding heroes toppled. It became fashionable to call for defunding the police and uprooting the last...

The ruling political class will always present itself as the savior to all those unknowingly and adversely affected by problems it created in the first place. The ruling political class in Washington D.C. is always making matters worse through what appear to be appropriate solutions for serious problems facing the country. Then when they don't work out as advertised many years after they've been implemented, they tell us that they've got the solutions for the newer, more serious problems that to the unsuspecting and unknowing public seem as if they came out of nowhere, and who are clueless as to...

One of the most iconic scenes from the AMC drama “Breaking Bad” was the murder of Hank Schrader. Schrader was a DEA agent lying on the ground as a neo-Nazi gang leader pointed a gun at him. Hank’s brother-in-law, Walter White, a brilliant chemistry teacher turned meth cook, frantically pleaded for Hank’s life. Hank looked at Walter and said with resigned contempt: “You’re the smartest guy I ever met. And you’re too stupid to see he made up his mind 10 minutes ago.” Hank then turned to the neo-Nazi, said “do what you’re going to do,” and immediately received a...

Republicans worry a Biden administration will muck up the economic strides made during President Trump’s four years in office. The index of consumer sentiment fell to 78.2 in December for Republicans, the lowest reading since October 2016, the month before Trump’s election victory over former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. The reading hit a high of 127.2 in February 2020 – just before COVID-19 lockdowns sent the U.S. economy spiraling into its sharpest slowdown of the post-World War II era.

Wishing someone a “Merry Christmas” is common practice for Canadian politicians on Dec. 25, but a holiday greeting from Alberta’s United Conservative Party received considerable criticism on social media over the weekend, including from clergy. The two-word Twitter and Facebook post with a Christmas tree emoji includes an image of the nativity — with Jesus, Mary and Joseph — overlaid with a passage from the King James Bible, Isaiah 9:6. Social media users criticized the party both for sharing a religious text from the official party account, and for the content of the verse itself which uses the word “government:”...

One of the Biden administration's key pledges is to have a "100 percent clean energy economy" and reach net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. A study released by Princeton researchers last week analyzed several scenarios detailing the herculean efforts required to achieve that goal. A prominent takeaway is the massive amount of land it would take to reimagine energy production and distribution nationally, including figuring out where to site a multitude of new solar arrays and wind turbines and constructing thousands of miles of transmission lines. "The current power grid took 150 years to build," one of the study researchers...

Who could have predicted how dreadful a year 2020 would be. By this New Year's Eve, 19 million to 20 million Americans will have contracted a deadly virus in a pandemic that exploded out of China to carry off 333,000 Americans, one of every 1,000 of us. As 2021 begins, Americans will be dying at the rate of 10,000 a week and contracting the virus at a rate of more than 1 million new cases a week. Yet, during that same year, miracles occurred. Vaccines were created, tested and mass-produced by Pfizer and Moderna that could, with 95 percent effectiveness,...
