From calling for the destruction of Israel to the National Security Council. "Why Is Georgetown Providing a Platform for This Dangerous Group?" an op-ed in the Washington Post had asked. The group was the Palestine Solidarity Movement, a BDS anti-Israel hate group whose conferences had a history of antisemitism, supporting Hamas and the murder of Jews. Maher Bitar, one of the executive board members of Students for Justice in Palestine, was one of the principal organizers of the 2006 conference which was being hosted by Georgetown University's SJP hate group. A photo appears to show him dancing in a keffiyah...

Desperate Democrats want to get medieval on Trump. Democrats are so scared one of their all-time favorite boogeymen, former President Donald Trump, will run and humiliate them again they are considering banishing him from electoral politics forever through an obscure constitutional provision created in the aftermath of the Civil War to deal with Confederate leaders and soldiers. Disqualifying opposing candidates, in case you forgot, is part of the old Barack Obama playbook from his Illinois Senate days, and, call me crazy, but Donald Trump is no Jefferson Davis. Because leftist depravity is bottomless, it should come as no surprise that...

...Sources tell KPRC the officer is Tam Dinh Pham. A KPRC 2 source says he was relieved of duty this morning... The department is monitoring social media and is asking the public to report things they see to their local authorities and the FBI. “Do not be dismissive,” Acevedo said. “Report it.”...

Nearly five years after one of the worst rail disasters in Canadian history, a small town at the centre of the tragedy is still grappling with the aftermath. When Tom Harding walked out of the courtroom after being acquitted of criminal negligence causing death, he didn't speak. The former train driver instead ducked away from the news cameras, overcome with emotion. His one-time colleague, Richard Labrie, did have something to say. "Could you back up a little bit so I can look at my paper? Because my eyes are full of tears," the ex-rail worker urged media crowding around him....

California Labor and Workforce Development Agency Secretary Julie Su announced Monday that, in 2020, fraudsters stole at least $11.4 billion in unemployment benefits from California. Su also noted that another $20 billion may have also been stolen by identity thieves and foreign criminals, possibly making as much as 27% of all EDD unemployment benefits being sent to fraudsters last year.

WASHINGTON - The patter of paws is being heard in the White House again following the arrival of President Joe Biden’s dogs Champ and Major. The two German shepherds are the first pets to live at the executive mansion since the Obama administration. Major burst onto the national scene late last year after Biden, then president-elect, broke his right foot while playing with the dog at their home in Wilmington, Delaware. The Bidens adopted Major in 2018 from the Delaware Humane Association. Champ joined the family after the 2008 presidential election that made Joe Biden vice president. The Bidens had...

WASHINGTON, Friday, Jan. 25. Ex-President TYLER communicated to the President to day the resolutions of the Virginia Legislature relative to a settlement of the national difficulties. Mr. TYLER intimates that Virginia could easily be satisfied, if speaking only for herself, but that her destiny is with the Cotton States, and she can only assent to such a basis of settlement as will be satisfactory to the latter. Is this really the sentiment of Virginia? Is it her mission to take care of the Southern extremists, rather than ascertain what is right and ask that? For we are entitled to suppose...

And here we come to the crucial step which has never before been reported. Peter Daszak himself subcontracted a key piece of the Fauci project — the gain of function piece. He gave that to a well-known center of expertise in gain of function virus research which specialized in bat Coronaviruses. Yep, he gave it to the Wuhan Institute of Virology. The question is, did they give it to us? Let’s see what they did with the Fauci money. In the projects result page, there are 13 papers co-authored by Shi Zhengli, who is the head of the Wuhan Institute’s...

They were right about his character, but his defects were obvious to almost everyone. They were wrong about virtually all else.

“Being diligent to preserve the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace” (Ephesians 4:3). The key to peace in the church is selfless love. People often delude themselves that there is peace when there is no real peace (Jer. 8:11). However, we can show the world that Jesus is the true peacemaker if we have a community of peaceful, loving, united believers. Others will realize then that Christ must be sent from God, because only God can make true, lasting peace. “The bond of peace” is what holds our unity together. The Greek word translated “bond” refers to...

Loverro's comments on Schilling are near the end of the article, which is why I didn't auto excerpt or link the article. He referenced (and criticized) Schilling's tweets that it was Antifa that caused the Capitol ruckus.Use a search engine to search "Thom Loverro"+"Curt Schilling". I find Loverro's comments surprising given the WT's supposed conservative agenda.

The Virginia Board of Elections rule allowing officials to count ballots that arrived without a postmark up to three days after the election was illegal, a state judge ruled.

GOP Election Fraud Deniers Face ReckoningOne cannot simultaneously defend the integrity of the 2020 election and demand new laws to ensure election integrity. So here’s the official company line promoted by establishment Republicans to defend the outcome of the 2020 presidential election: Of course the election had some irregularities like all elections but nothing that would change the result and, by the way, the country needs some major election integrity reform before this happens again.The doublespeak designed to refute what election fraud deniers call “the big lie” was best expressed over the weekend by Chris Christie, the former New Jersey...

First, a surprise, as who would’ve thought the best video shown all weekend would be on ABC’s Sunday show with George Stephanopoulos?Not because of Stephanopoulos, of course, but of how Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul responded to him after being asked the leading, litmus-test question, “This election was not stolen. Do you accept that fact?”Kentucky Senator Rand Paul Did Not Play AlongTo his everlasting credit, Sen. Paul did not play along with the Leftist Inquisition, saying instead that “the debate over whether or not there was fraud should occur,” that there was never any presentation in court of the evidence and...

HOUSTON (AP) — A second Houston police officer has been charged with murder and is among additional officers who have been indicted as part of an ongoing investigation into a Houston Police Department narcotics unit following a deadly 2019 drug raid, prosecutors announced Monday. In all, a dozen officers tied to the narcotics unit have been indicted after their work came under scrutiny following the January 2019 drug raid in which Dennis Tuttle, 59, and his wife, Rhogena Nicholas, 58, were killed. “The consequences of corruption are two innocent ordinary people were killed in their homes, four police officers were...

Tony Blinken, the Biden administration’s nominee for Secretary of State, managed a Joe Biden project that received millions of anonymous Chinese donor dollars. Blinken appeared a handful of times in emails found on Hunter Biden’s laptop agreeing to advise Hunter Biden when Hunter worked at the scandal-plagued firm Rosemont Seneca Partners. The Obama State Department set up a meeting between Hunter and Blinken which was postponed, and the two met two months later in 2015.

There's one name you won't see in any of the stories about Pfleger. It starts with an "O" and ends with an "A". It's funny because those names used to be associated quite a bit. When I broke the Pfleger story back in the day, I called him the white Jeremiah Wright. It was a fitting description because the two men were linked by their ties to Farrakhan and their racist bluster. Obama was forced to cut ties with both Wright and Pfleger. Even though Pfleger used to be Obama's "moral compass". Friends and advisers, such as the Rev. Michael...
