    Monday marked three weeks since a Lake Forest man received his second dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, and one day since he got a positive COVID-19 test result. “Yesterday, I got a phone call from the Orange County Health Department,” Gary Michael said. “They told me that, yes, I’m positive with coronavirus, and they went through my symptoms and the precautions of what I should do as far as quarantine.” Michael was tested for the virus when he went to Mission Hospital in Mission Viejo on Saturday for an unrelated health issue. “You might be surprised by this man’s...

    Time magazine’s “The Secret History of the Shadow Campaign that Saved the 2020 Election” by Molly Ball is supposed to come off as an epic tale of left-wing institutions swooping in to save democracy from untold chaos in the aftermath of the election but reads more like a confessional where the storyteller and her informants unwittingly reveal that the election was indeed rigged. Ball stresses that the “shadow effort [was] dedicated not to winning the vote but to ensuring it would be free and fair, credible and uncorrupted.” In other words, they were not attempting to defeat Trump, but were...

    The moment Bruce Jenner “came out” as Caitlyn, Bruce ceased to exist. It was as if he was never born, and everyone was expected to go along with the charade. Curiously, most people did. News stories immediately and unquestioningly stopped referring to Bruce. But no one bothered to ask a very basic question: how does Bruce, or anyone, know what it’s like to be another gender? They don’t ask it because it is impossible to answer, and they don’t want to be seen as insufficiently woke. But it’s an important question as people are having their lives ruined over slipping...
  • Check Out These Stunning Images Of The Super Bowl's Bomber Trio Flyover

    Some come for the plays. Some come for the halftime show. Some come for the commercials. And yes, some are mainly in it for the opening flyover. This year, aviation nerds got a unique offering for the Super Bowl—Air Force Global Strike Command provided one each of their bombers—a B-52, a B-1, and a B-2. It would be the first bomber trio flyover for a big game. Although it wasn't heavily promoted, the aircraft's designations also add up to 55 (B-1 + B-2 + B-52=55), which was ideal for Super Bowl LV, or 55. The three bombers, with the B-2...
  • Why are Democrats Pushing Impeachment?

    President Trump is now Donald Trump, so why are Democrats demanding another impeachment? Add to that, Trump is already out of office, the Chief Justice will not preside, and 45 senators have already objected to the questionable legality of the proceedings. Is it pettiness, or is there another motive? Nancy Pelosi is one of the snidest and most petty representatives in Congress. I have personally heard from several Democratic representatives their beliefs that Pelosi held up critical immigration and COVID legislation that they privately supported, for no other reason than that it might help Trump look good.

    An impoverished fisherman who found a rare orange Melo pearl worth £250,000 in Thailand has been arrested after celebrating his new fortune by allegedly throwing a meth party for his pals. Hatchai Niyomdecha, 37, invited friends over to his home in Nakhon Si Thammarat, Thailand, on Friday after being offered 10 million Baht (£250,000) for the rare pearl. Police reportedly found thousands of oral methamphetamine tablets at the man's house after being contacted by his neighbours who complained about the loud music and claimed they could smell drugs. The Thai fisherman made headlines around the world last week after he...

    Before I graduated from high school, I overheard the older brother of a close friend talking about shooting a bear. The bear had been discovered in a den, during the Wisconsin deer season. As I recall, in 1968, such a harvest would have been legal.The older brother was a Vietnam veteran. He approached the den with another vet. The brother suggested the other vet poke into the den to see if the bear were still there.The other veteran said no, he would not do it. The brother said, well, in Vietnam, you went into holes to get Charlie.Whereupon, the other...

    Twenty-four federal judges are claiming senior status, most in an effort to give Democrat President Joe Biden an opportunity to appoint their replacement, according to multiple media reports. When including federal judges that had already taken senior status before Biden was elected, there are now more than 70 appointments waiting to be filled, Breitbart reports. Though one judge said his decision had nothing to do with politics, the San Francisco Chronicle noted, "it seems like no coincidence that, out of 24 federal judges who have taken senior status or announced intentions to do so since election day, 17 were appointed...

    Rand Paul said Sunday the Senate impeachment trial is 'over before it starts' claiming there is 'zero chance' Donald Trump will be convicted – as the former president's attorneys prepare to present an impeachment defense showing a double standard in acceptable speech for Democrats and Republicans. 'Is there any chance that the Senate will vote to convict Donald Trump?' Fox News' Chris Wallace asked the Kentucky senator on Sunday. 'Zero chance of conviction,' Paul said. '45 Republicans have said it's not even a legitimate proceeding so it's really over before it starts.' At least 17 Republicans would have to cross...

    Last month, the CDC issued the following statement: "The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is expanding the requirement for a negative COVID-19 test to all air passengers entering the United States. Testing before and after travel is a critical layer to slow the introduction and spread of COVID-19. This strategy is consistent with the current phase of the pandemic and more efficiently protects the health of Americans." In layman's terms, every human being who enters this country by air must first present a negative test for the coronavirus. That includes American citizens, no exceptions. Corona infection, in fact, is...
