There was a time not too long ago when only the "fringe" got banned on social media. Today, just having a contrarian perspective to the mainstream narrative, even if that perspective is grounded in truth, is enough to get people canceled. Freedom-loving news show “The Highwire with Del Bigtree” has been banned on Facebook-owned Instagram and all of their content has been deleted. This, according to those involved with the show, came without warning or explanation. The show, which is funded by the Informed Consent Action Network, focuses on issues of freedom with an emphasis on medical liberties. They have...

The headlines today indicate that more and more is going to come out on Cuomo's Nursing Home fiasco. He clearly was negligent, to the point that trial lawyers are going to organize multi billion law suits against the state. Will be to Cuomo's interest to pay them out as quickly as possible. I don't think, he can avoid the fall out that will occur. I'm wondering if our beloved president Donald Trump, might contemplate running for the office of New York Governor? What do fellow readers here think about the prospect?

Earlier this week, Lucasfilm severed ties with "The Mandalorian" actress Gina Carano after a hyperbolic social media post in which she compared current political imperiousness and cancel culture in the United States -- and the treatment of "wrong-thinking" Americans who hold views at odds with those of ruling class elites -- to the 1930s-era treatment of German Jewry by the then-ascendant Nazi regime. "Most people today don't realize that to get to the point where Nazi soldiers could easily round up thousands of Jews, the government first made their own neighbors hate them simply for being Jews," Carano wrote in...

SAN DIEGO - The Biden administration on Friday announced plans for tens of thousands of asylum-seekers waiting in Mexico for their next immigration court hearings to be allowed into the United States while their cases proceed. The first of an estimated 25,000 asylum-seekers in Mexico with active cases will be allowed in the United States on Feb. 19, authorities said. They plan to start slowly with two border crossings each processing up to 300 people a day and a third crossing taking fewer. Administration officials declined to name them out of fear they may encourage a rush of people to...

As Congress continues to work on another COVID relief bill, a group of Democratic Senators this week introduced an amendment that would provide $5 billion in aid to farmers of color. "The Emergency Relief for Farmers of Color Act" would provide 4-billion dollars in direct relief payments to black, indigenous and Hispanic farmers to help them pay off outstanding USDA farm loan debts and related taxes. It would designate another $1 billion to fund support activities at USDA to quote "help root out systemic racism." The bill also includes a provision that would provide up to 160-acres to existing and...

House impeachment manager Rep Jamie Raskin falsely claimed that Trump supporters took part in the “burning of a church” and “impaled” police officers during his speech in the Senate yesterday. “That’s before the second Million MAGA March – a rally that ended in serious violence, and even the burning of a church,” said Raskin. That statement is manifestly false. Trump supporters never set fire to a church. Impeachment Manager Jamie Raskin claims that the Million MAGA March in December burned a church… "That's before the second Million MAGA March – a rally that ended in serious violence, and even the...

WASHINGTON - The U.S. Interior Department will start consultations with Native American tribal leaders next month on COVID-19, economic security, racial justice and climate change, part of efforts by President Joe Biden to get more tribal input in federal policy deliberations. The Interior Department, which oversees the country’s tribal and federal lands, will be led by New Mexico Representative Deb Haaland, who would become the first Native American to head a cabinet-level agency if she is confirmed by Congress. Some tribes felt sidelined after major decisions by former President Donald Trump’s administration, such as approving the Dakota Access Pipeline and...

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis on Wednesday did not mince words on a congested conference call with Biden and federal health authorities who are seeking to prohibit domestic travel to and from the Sunshine State. DeSantis and Biden exchanged salvos of biting barbs after the criminal president said the federal government had authority to “restrict movement” of the people. ---snip--- DeSantis’s initial reply was brief and blunt: “I will not comply,” he said, and then cited the CDC’s own statistics showing a nationwide decline in active Covid-19 cases. Florida had arrested the spread of Covid-19, DeSantis argued, and accused Biden of...

Developed in the early 1960s, the M79 grenade launcher saw use in the Vietnam War – and for those who carried the weapon, it was either instant love or lasting hatred. The weapon was simple to use. Much like a shotgun, it was a break-open, shoulder-fire weapon that could fire a 40mm grenade. It utilized a “high-low propulsion” launching system that reduced the recoil, yet allowed shooters to launch a grenade upwards of 400 yards, which was far further than a hand grenade could be thrown. The rifled barrel gave the round a right-hand spin, which also ensured accuracy.

“‘Thine, O Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty, indeed everything that is in the heavens and the earth; Thine is the dominion, O Lord, and Thou dost exalt Thyself as head over all’” (1 Chronicles 29:11). God has unlimited power and ultimate control over everything. There is no limit to God’s power. Revelation 19:6 says, “The Lord our God, the Almighty, reigns.” In fact, one Hebrew name for God is El Shaddai (El means “God”; Shaddai means “almighty”). Another word for “almighty” is “omnipotent.” God can do anything effortlessly. It...

In March, when much of the nation shut down in response to the coronavirus landing on American shores, the Anti-Defamation League estimated that there were at least 57 instances of anti-Asian harassment and violence nationwide. And in recent weeks, the string of violence and anti-Asian sentiment has reached another breaking point — one that has disproportionately targeted vulnerable Asian seniors in the Bay Area.

One of the easiest things to predict about the end of Donald Trump's presidency was that anti-Trump journalists would eventually feel a heated rush of nostalgia about their heroic crusade to keep democracy from dying. But it came earlier than expected. Alexander Nazaryan of Yahoo News wrote a piece for the Democrat-endorsing website The Atlantic that was originally headlined "I Miss the Thrill of Trump." He unintentionally caused laughter when he wrote: "Covering the administration was thrilling for many journalists, in the way that I imagine storming Omaha Beach must have been for a 20-year-old fresh from the plains of...

WASHINGTON, Monday, Feb. 11. Private dispatches from Tennessee indicate that the State has voted against having any Convention, at the same time it has elected an overwhelming majority of Union delegates to one. Mr. ETHERIDGE's county is nearly unanimous for Union. Later and fuller advices received from Texas show that only about forty-six counties in the State voted at the recent election for a Convention, and only one-eighth, instead of one-third, of the usual popular vote was cast. Under the law referring the secession Ordinance to the people, the election comes off in twenty days notice, and the returns are...

Another way in which illegal aliens get to be a sort of "super-citizen. In an amazing display of cognitive dissonance, the Biden administration proposes imposing limits on the movement of American citizens while encouraging the flood of illegal aliens from Mexico and Latin America. His actions are allegedly intended to mitigate the spread of the Chinese COVID virus. Per the Miami Herald: The Biden administration is considering whether to impose domestic travel restrictions, including on Florida, fearful that coronavirus mutations are threatening to reverse hard-fought progress on the pandemic. Outbreaks of the new variants — including a highly contagious one...

The election swept in a legion of Second Amendment foes. Americans can expect them to take James Madison’s statement that disarming the people is “the best and most effective way to enslave them” as less of a warning and more of a directive. During the campaign, Joe Biden was asked by CNN’s Anderson Cooper if a Biden administration would mean “they are going to come for my guns,” and Biden responded, “Bingo.” Vice President Harris proudly supports “mandatory buy-backs” which is just a euphemism for outright confiscation. President Biden’s Domestic Policy Council Chair Susan Rice announced that the Administration will...

Two small clusters of deaths after COVID-19 vaccination have been reported among nursing homes in Kentucky and Arkansas. In Kentucky, four seniors died the same day of their vaccination on Dec. 30, 2020. Three of the four who passed away reportedly already had had coronavirus prior to getting vaccinated. In Arkansas, four seniors died at a long term care facility about a week after their vaccination. All tested positive for COVID-19 after vaccination. The deaths are reported in a federal database called VAERS, the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System. Deaths after vaccination don’t necessarily mean the vaccine is to blame....

Multiple calls for a criminal investigation into Governor Andrew Cuomo have arisen following a bombshell report in which one of his top aides admitted in a conference call to Democrat lawmakers that the administration hid information on COVID nursing home deaths from federal investigators. In August, the Department of Justice announced that they had requested information from New York regarding pandemic-related orders that might have led to the deaths of thousands of seniors in nursing homes. The New York Democrat consistently painted the investigation as politically motivated. But a stunning confession from Melissa DeRosa, secretary to the governor, seems to...

The New York Times rolled out a report citing “four people familiar with Trump’s condition” claiming Trump was way sicker with Covid-19 in October than publicly acknowledged.
