  • Executive Orders V. Guns: How The Second Amendment May Be In Peril

    “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” It is no secret that the democrats want to strip Americans of their Second Amendment right. And though it hasn’t happened thus far, Joe Biden apparently isn’t ruling out using executive orders to crackdown on the right to bear arms. The topic was discussed during a White House press briefing on Tuesday, in response to a statement that Biden put out last week calling to ban semi-automatic firearms, along with other gun control...

    China has released a video which reportedly shows its border clash with Indian troops last June after Beijing admitted that four of its soldiers were killed in the fatal high-mountain fight. The footage, aired by Beijing's state broadcaster CCTV, is said to capture the bloody hand-to-hand combat between Chinese and Indian forces at the Galwan River valley, which also resulted in the deaths of 20 Indian servicemen. The official channel claimed the clip showed an Indian army 'several times the size of the Chinese side' launching a violent revenge attack after a Chinese commander had tried to solve the two...

    (h/t COUNTrecount)Q is the result of the sacrifices and commitment of countless patriots to win back our captured country from the Deep State and achieve the transformation President Trump promised in this campaign video. President Trump has said the awakening of the public is key to this transformation.Q describes this awakening as follows: "The Great Awakening ('Freedom of Thought’), was designed and created not only as a backchannel to the public (away from the longstanding 'mind’ control of the corrupt & heavily biased media) to endure future events through transparency and regeneration of individual thought (breaking the chains of ‘group-think’),...

    Poland is taking a stand against the Big Tech conglomerate, proposing whopping fines for platforms that censor or remove posts for ideological reasons, according to the country’s Deputy Minister of Justice Sebastian Kaleta. In a Fox News interview, Kaleta said social media companies have been targeting Christianity, conservatives and traditional values through their blacklisting and removal of posts. “We see that when Big Tech decides to remove content for political purposes, it’s mostly content which praises traditional values or praises conservatism,” Kaleta said. “It is deleted under their ‘hate speech policy’ when it has no legal right to do so.”...

    JACKSON, Miss. (WJTV) – Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch joined a coalition of 18 state attorneys general asking President Joe Biden and other federal leaders to reverse the Biden Administration’s cancellation of Operation Talon. It was a nationwide ICE operation that focused on removing convicted sex offenders illegally in the United States. “Human trafficking and rape at the border are only part of the intensifying nationwide crisis of human trafficking, commercial sexual exploitation, and forced prostitution of minors,” said Fitch. “By cancelling Operation Talon, the White House is encouraging sexual predators to seek illegal entry into the United States and...

    WINDERMERE, Fla. — Former Major League Baseball player Johnny Damon and his wife were both arrested early Friday in Windermere after a traffic stop. Damon was charged with driving under the influence and resisting an officer without violence, Orange County Jail records show. Damon’s wife, Michelle Mangan-Damon, was arrested as well and charged with resisting an officer with violence and battery of a law enforcement officer. Damon was pulled over around 1:30 a.m. by Windermere police near an entrance to the Isleworth community after an officer said he was seen swerving on Conroy Windermere Road, before striking a curb and...

    Fifty years ago 180,000 whales disappeared from the oceans without a trace, and researchers are still trying to make sense of why. Inside the most irrational environmental crime of the century. The work began inauspiciously. In her first season, the Slava caught just 386 whales. But by the fifth - before which the fleet’s crew wrote a letter to Stalin pledging to bring home more than 500 tons of whale oil - the Slava’s annual catch was approaching 2,000. The next year it was 3,000. Then, in 1957, the ship’s crew discovered dense conglomerations of humpback whales to the north,...

    American freedom is no longer what is once was, producer and author Dinesh D'Souza said as he compared the U.S. to other countries. When asked about cancel culture, D'Souza told the John Solomon Reports podcast, "it suddenly occurred to me that we're really no longer living, at least in terms of some of our basic civil liberties, in a free country." "This is a startling thing for someone like me as an immigrant to say," D'Souza added. “But it suddenly dawned on me that, you know, we always think of America as like, the freest country in the world. And...

    The only cow in a very small town in Northern Italy stopped giving milk. The town elders heard that they could buy a cow in Sicily quite cheap so they brought a cow over from Sicily. The cow was absolutely wonderful. It produced lots of milk every day and everyone was happy. They bought a bull to mate with the cow to get more cows, so they'd never have to worry about their milk supply again. They put the bull in the pasture with the cow but whenever the bull tried to mount the cow, the cow would move away....

    ...If anyone tells you faith in government isn’t fickle, please run away from them as they don’t speak the truth. Anytime a Republican president and/or administration is in charge, Democrats assert that the government not only can, but must solve every issue every time. For example, Republican presidents are supposed to know how to stop tornadoes and hurricanes from hitting the country. However, the assertion changes the second a Democrat takes over. There’s justification that there’s much they can do about anything. Democrats are like leaves in the wind. They’re at the mercy of the uncontrollable forces that exert upon...

    It is clear US President Joe Biden is not up to the task he has been “sworn in to do”, according to Sky News host Cory Bernardi. “Never before has the leader of the free world been so cognitively compromised,” Mr Bernardi said “It’s clear to me at the least that US President Joe Biden is struggling with dementia and is clearly not up to the task he’s been sworn in to do.” Mr Bernardi said it is something which was “evident” during the election campaign, but the “partisan and poisonous” mainstream media chose not to highlight anything which could...
  • Trump Has $100M In Backing For New Media Venture After Courting Billionaire Donors: Report

    02/20/2021 12:15:15 PM PST · by Slate Report · 73 replies
    Former President Donald Trump has told close friends he has lined up hundreds of millions in backing for a proposed new media venture already. The details are thin and while Trump may start a new social media platform, he also hinted he may start with a subscription service rather than build out a new social media company. Either way, he has plenty of options. Surprisingly, the sources close to Trump said major investors from Silicon Valley are considering backing the venture over censorship fears and a dislike for our current online “cancel culture.” Details of the plan first leaked when...
  • Pathetic: NYC Mayor Shuts Down Skating Rinks To Punish Trump Organization

    We learned last month that New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio was cooking up a plan to cancel all of the Trump organization’s contracts with the city. Those contracts involve the operation of a golf course, the carousel in Central Park and two skating rinks. The contracts were set to expire in April anyway, but apparently, the city’s showboating mayor couldn’t wait that long. It was just announced that de Blasio wants the Trump-owned operations shut down and moved out by February 26. (In one week.) That means that operations will end tomorrow to give them time to pack...
  • Oak Park Mall (1982)

    This is an excellent 1982 documentary of mall culture in America. Could it have been so long ago (nearly 40 years!)? Before the Internet. Before cell phones. MTV was just getting started and most youngsters didn't even know what it was, much less have it. I remember those days well. The mall was the place for teens and young adults to hang out. It was where boys and girls dated. They'd start off at the Orange Julius at the food court and make their way to the multiplex, where they might see "Fast Times At Ridgemont High" or maybe "ET"....

    resident Joe Biden on Saturday declared a major disaster in Texas as winter storms continue to wreak havoc on the state. Millions of Texas are without power and water due to freezing temperatures, which have resulted in frozen pipes and downed electrical grids. A majority of the state – 189 counties of the 254 that make up the state – are also under boil water notices. The major disaster declaration allows the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to provide assistance to families and businesses in the 77 counties with the most damage. Federal assistance will come in the form of...

The 32-year-old said goodbye to Washington D.C. on Friday, as she was seen packing up her office in the West Wing that night. McEnany did not give a farewell press conference nor had she announced when she was leaving, but confirmed her exit on her personal Twitter account following media reports. The mother-of-one will remain on the payroll and finish up her last day from her home in Florida,...
