"The first reaction that overwhelmed many people in America and the world when they saw Trump boarding the AF1 was one of frustration and delusion. Several people thought (and many still think it), that the US President has surrendered in some way. In fact, people have thought instead that Donald Trump has only been a “man of the system” since the beginning and that the globalist élite chose him as a containment wall to avoid any kind of real change. In this moment, there are three main theories regarding Trump’s role in his administration. The first theory is that Trump...

When he took office last year, Gascón enacted a number of sweeping policy changes, including directives that barred prosecutors from seeking the death penalty or making use of the sentencing enhancements state law allows in certain types of cases that can significantly increase the time someone spends in prison. Gascon’s decision to relent has little practical impact on the case because Gov. Gavin Newsom placed a moratorium on executions in California in 2019. Nonetheless, Gargiulo’s defense attorney Dale Rubin said Gascón’s move violates his client’s constitutional rights, since the district attorney’s office has taken the death penalty off the table...

Lou Dobbs, the longtime host of the signature right-wing talk show on the Fox Business Network, was canned by the network on Friday night. "Lou Dobbs Tonight" is off the air, effective immediately, a Fox spokesperson confirmed. An interim show will take Dobbs' place at 5 and 7 p.m. Eastern starting Monday. It was a head-scratching change by Fox Business, since Dobbs was its highest-rated host, albeit on a relatively low-rated network. He often doubled his lead-in's ratings, which is a rare feat in television. Dobbs, a veteran financial news anchor, became known at Fox Business for his sycophantic pro-Trump...

Ancient embalmers likely placed the tongue-shaped, gold foil amulet in the deceased’s mouth to ensure they could speak in the afterlifeArchaeologists conducting excavations at the temple of Taposiris Magna in western Alexandria, Egypt, have unearthed a 2,000-year-old mummy with a gold tongue. As Nihal Samir reports for Daily News Egypt, researchers from a dual Egyptian-Dominican mission discovered the golden-tongued mummy while surveying 16 poorly preserved burials encased in rock-cut crypts—a popular form of interment during Egypt’s Greco-Roman period. Crafted out of gold foil, the tongue-shaped amulet was likely placed in the deceased’s mouth to ensure they’d be able to speak...

The halls of Congress are ringing with the siren song of an increased minimum wage. Politicians who don’t have employees of their own promised their constituents fat sums of other people’s money during the campaign, and now they feel it’s time to delivery on the promise, by mandating that other companies raise the hourly wage they pay their employees. And it’s not just a raise, it’s a standard, a new flat number from coast to coast and border to border, determined arbitrarily, because it sounds neat and feels generous. The proposal on the table is to more than double the...

February 4, 2021 (LifeSiteNews) — In a multi-part report released over the last two weeks, Fox News’ Steve Hilton, host of The Next Revolution, ties together stunning evidence of the U.S. government’s and Dr. Anthony Fauci’s potential roles in the origin of the COVID-19 pandemic. Hilton’s investigation centers on U.S. government funding of a kind of virus manipulation research, known as gain-of-function, conducted in a Chinese lab believed to be the source of COVID-19. Fauci, the pro-abortion head of the White House Coronavirus Task Force in the Trump and Biden administrations who was criticized for his draconian, erratic COVID-19 advice,...

Lou Dobbs has been canceled by Fox News following a lawsuit filed by SmartMatic. It’s a despicable and cowardly move, one we’ve grown to expect from the former favorite news channel among conservatives. Was Dobbs’ sacking just the beginning or is it intended as the end to stave off the lawsuit? It’s notable that neither Tucker Carlson nor Sean Hannity have been canceled. They and other Fox News hosts have talked about or had guests who talked about Dominion Voting Systems and their alleged role in voter fraud.

Time Magazine has published intricate details of what they deem “a conspiracy unfolding behind the scenes, one that both curtailed the protests and coordinated the resistance from CEOs. Both surprises were the result of an informal alliance between left-wing activists and business titans.” The article even confirms both The National Pulse’s reporting on former Obama lawyer Ian Bassin, as well as Revolver.news’s assertion of the involvement of Norm Eisen in what amounted to a major admission of a globalist set up to leverage the coronavirus, mail-in voting, and corporate interest to oust President Trump from office. In a 6500-word article,...

The Honduran Congress amended the Constitution of the Central American nation to ban all abortions despite pressure from the United Nations and abortions groups to block the added protections for the unborn. The Congress amended the Constitution to explicitly ban abortion last week. The amendment prohibits “the termination of life of the unborn by the mother or a third party under any circumstance” and expanded the protections for the unborn already enshrined in Article 67 of the Honduran Constitution. The Constitution previously recognized the humanity of the child in the womb, stating that the unborn “is to be considered born...

A group of Republicans is calling for Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) to be fined after they say she failed to abide by newly implemented rules requiring members to go through metal detectors before entering the House chamber. Republicans on the House Administration Committee sent a letter to Acting Sergeant-at-Arms Timothy Blodgett on Friday requesting the fine, arguing Pelosi should have to abide by the new rule that she pushed to implement. "Yesterday, at approximately 9:59 am, multiple members observed the Speaker of the House entering the House Chamber without completing security screening,” the Republicans wrote on Friday. “What was observed...

Former seminarian Anthony Gorgia has named Cardinal Timothy Dolan, the Archdiocese of New York, three priests at the North American College in Rome and several John Does in his suitNew York, February 5, 2021 (LifeSiteNews) — A former seminarian is suing Cardinal Timothy Dolan and the Archdiocese of New York for $125 million, alleging that he was prevented from returning to his studies at an American seminary in Rome because he witnessed the Vice-Rector inappropriately touching another seminarian. Yesterday an attorney for Anthony J. Gorgia filed a lawsuit on his behalf with the Richmond County New York Supreme Court. The...

SAN FRANCISCO - Lawyers for Dominion Voting Systems have asked Facebook, YouTube, Twitter and Parler to preserve posts about the company, even if the material was already removed for spreading misinformation. The posts need to be kept “because they are relevant to Dominion’s defamation claims relating to false accusations that Dominion rigged the 2020 election,” according to the demand letters from Dominion’s law firm Clare Locke. Dominion sued Rudolph W. Giuliani and Sidney Powell for more than $1.3 billion each in January, alleging that the lawyers defamed Dominion by saying the machines were used to steal the election from President...

The 2020 election is over, but the feeling that former President Trump was cheated out of a second term will remain fresh in the minds of GOP voters. They’re not moving on from this — it could become a 2022 campaign issue. Republicans will have to navigate that very carefully, however, as these allegations led to the January 6 riot on Capitol Hill. Voter integrity should be something that all sides can agree on; only the GOP seems to care about enforcing such matters, though. Yet, this lengthy Time Magazine piece goes into detail about the shadow campaign anti-Trump forces...

Rome Newsroom, Feb 3, 2021 / 05:00 am MT (CNA).- The Australian Federal Police said on Wednesday that it had found no evidence of criminal misconduct in its investigation into money transfers from the Vatican to Australia. Australian authorities have been investigating the suspicious payments, equivalent to about $7.4 million, for several months. The federal police (AFP) said in a statement on Feb. 3 that “no criminal misconduct has been identified to date.” “If the AFP receives additional information from Australian or international partners it will be reviewed accordingly,” it said. Local media reported last month that investigators had been...

I believe that most within the Christian family aren’t the least bit concerned with the evil going on in American’s swiftly changing cultural, social, and political landscape. However, I’m equally convinced that most who read these commentaries are extremely concerned and growing more so by the day. Analyzing the many actions being taken—and contemplated—by those newly installed after the 2020 presidential election, I’m certain that, this time, those in power intend to administer the coup de grâce to all opposition to their globalist ambitions. They believe they have the power to do so, it’s becoming more obvious by the hour....

President Joe Biden says that Donald Trump should not receive intelligence briefings even though they typically have been given to previous former presidents. In his first sit-down interview with a network since becoming president, Biden told CBS Evening News anchor Norah O’Donnell that he doesn’t think Trump should receive the briefings his “erratic behavior unrelated to the insurrection,” referring to the Jan. 6 siege on the Capitol. “You’ve called him an existential threat. You’ve called him dangerous. You’ve called him reckless,” O”Donnell said at one point in the interview. “Yeah, I have. And I believe it,” Biden said. O’Donnell then...

Are Democrats afraid of Donald Trump running again because they don't believe Joe Biden's victory was legitimate? If Democrats believed Biden won without any tricks they wouldn't be so afraid of a possible rematch. If Biden defeated Trump once in a legitimate election Biden should be able to defeat Trump a second time.
