Sen. Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky) called the vote on January sixth to accept the Electoral College's votes for Joe Biden to be the nation's next president "the most consequential vote I have ever cast in my career in the Senate." McConnell asserted that "the issue of whether the election was fair or stolen is, in my mind, secondary to the preservation of the bipartisan comity that is essential to the peaceful transfer of power. Other presidential elections have been stolen—most notably the one held in 1960. In contrast to President Trump's post-election behavior, Republican Vice-President Richard Nixon put the...

Georgia lieutenant governor Geoff Duncan has criticized President Trump’s Saturday phone call with Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, in which Trump asked the state election chief to “find” additional votes to overturn election results in the state... "I understand that the Fulton County [Georgia] District Attorney wants to look at it,” Raffensperger said on ABC’s Good Morning America. “Maybe that’s the appropriate venue for it to go.” The Secretary of State said his own office would likely not attempt a prosecution, citing an unspecified conflict of interest...

Device is meant to help with global warming. A sustainable agriculture company has manufactured a device they say will help curb global warming by neutralizing methane exhaled by cows. Zelp, a company based in London, says that its device can help contribute to a "strong reduction in the global warming potential of methane." The mask, which is strapped to the snouts of cows, "neutralises methane exhaled in real time," the company claims. The device also has digital monitoring technologies such as geolocation and emission monitoring capabilities. Activists have warned that cows are significant contributors to global warming due to their...

If Biden was fraudulently elected, the American people will find out. On January 6, 2021, everyone needs to listen to the evidence as an American. No party affiliations, no ideology. Be an American. The event is political, but it should not be partisan. Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of our democracy, and there is mounting evidence this election was neither free nor fair. No one is trying to overturn a valid election. If a massive fraud occurred, we are trying to prevent the actual loser from being sworn in as president. The most dangerous thing for our democracy...

Chipotle Mexican Grill on Monday began offering a cauliflower rice option to attract consumers trying to comply with their New Year’s resolutions. The rice substitute is made with grilled cauliflower, cilantro, lime and salt and will be available in U.S. and Canadian restaurants for a limited time.

Digital ID systems inventor Jovan Pulitzer testified at a Georgia State Senate subcommittee hearing on Dec. 30, 2020. Pulitzer suggested all absentee ballots in the state of Georgia be forensically examined and fraudulent ones identified in just a matter of hours. He called on state officials to allow the examination. One of the county’s polling managers previously told state lawmakers that she opened a box of mail-in ballots with a batch of 110 that were “pristine” and not folded, indicating that they were never put in secrecy envelopes, as is required. Pulitzer said that he and his team can detect...

Investors will have their eyes peeled on the Georgia run-off elections on Tuesday to determine which party will control the Senate. A Democratic win of the two contested Senate seats could trigger a selloff in the markets, according to Oppenheimer strategist John Stoltzfus. “Should the Democrats win both seats, we expect the S&P 500 to become vulnerable to a downdraft in the neighborhood of 6% to 10%,” wrote Stoltzfus in a note to investors. “In our experience the markets prefer that Washington’s Capitol Hill have enough checks and balances in place to keep political power out of just one party’s...

Many of Russia’s guns of World War II are legends and were mass-produced the world over, but they did not get built or designed overnight. Background: When the Soviet Union faced invasion from Nazi Germany in 1941 its army was still utilizing the same basic bolt action rifle that had been carried a generation earlier during the First World War and the subsequent Russian Revolution and Civil War. However, the Red Army was already looking to develop new small arms, and by the end of the Great Patriotic War – as the Second World War was labeled to the Russian...

The House of Representatives and the Senate on Sunday adopted rules that outline how the counting of Electoral College votes will take place on Jan. 6. The rules were passed without recorded votes. Instead, a voice vote was used in both chambers. The guidance, introduced by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), says the chambers will meet in a joint session on Jan. 6 presided over by Vice President Mike Pence. Pence, as president of the Senate, will open “all the certificates and papers purporting to be certificates of the electoral votes,” the rules state, a nod to how seven...

Many Christians, and many who are not Christians, are quite concerned about what awaits us this coming year of 2021. 2020 has not been pleasant, and with all things considered, 2021 could be even worse. I say “could” be because maybe our attitude is a determining factor. In other words, as a Christian, are we depending on man or God? Paul said it well. “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds...

Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said Monday that the data President Donald Trump cited to him throughout an hour-long phone call Saturday to claim there was rampant voter fraud in the state's presidential election "is just plain wrong.""He did most of the talking. We did most of the listening but I did want to make my points that the data that he has is just plain wrong," Raffensperger said of the extraordinary call during an exclusive interview with ABC News Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos on Good Morning America.

People called globalists, the Global Elite, the Shadow Government, and various other names want to create and run a New World Order. A New World Order implies the demise of the current world order. The slogan of many globalists (including the Biden Administration, the UN, and Pope Francis) is “Build Back Better,” but to build back, the current world order must be destroyed first. To Build Back Better implies a better world, but globalists are really trying to gain total control of everyone on earth (our religious system, our political system, our economic system; what we buy, what we sell,...

We'll be able to have more productive and honest conversations with one another the sooner we realize that while morality takes sides, science does not.Even as coronavirus vaccines slowly make their way into the population, debates rage around the world on whether lockdowns should continue or be implemented anew. Often in these debates, one hears the term “science” tossed about irresponsibly, sometimes by participants on both sides of the argument.Most of the time, however, when people say that we should “follow the science,” they mean we should listen to the expert advice of medical professionals who argue in favor of...

Project Veritas has released recordings where Raphael Warnock campaign staffers admitted that the candidate and his team are biased against the police. While the candidate avoids using the term "Defund the police," that is the goal. "Police officers are not all good, you know what I'm saying? Most of them are bad, we know that," said Sasha Williams, the director of small business engagement for the Warnock campaign. Derrick Bhole, a financial assistant on the campaign, said "he avoids using defunding the police, because he knows that the Republicans are gonna try to grab on to it." Bhole stated that...
