At the University of San Diego, conservative law professor Tom Smith is being investigated for criticizing “Chinese” propaganda, based on the false premise that this constituted racial harassment of Asian-American students. If Professor Smith can be disciplined for criticizing China’s government, then I could have been disciplined as a student for criticizing Russia’s communist government during the Cold War. When I was a student at the University of Virginia, I criticized “Russia” in a speech to the Washington Society and “the Russians” in an article in the University Journal. Obviously, I was talking about abuses by the communist government of...

Biden Falls on Stairs Boarding Air Force One (Audio Enhanced)Bitchute: https://www.bitchute.com/video/6LKHLTaGgpEa/ YouTube: https://youtu.be/ZtrBiQIjcU0 Rumble: https://rumble.com/vew60l-biden-falls-on-stairs-boarding-air-force-one-audio-enhanced.html

The increasing encroachment of government regulations, pontificating politicians and the enforcement of Social Justice schemes have led to a loss of understanding of the terms private property and property rights. Once it was understood that the unauthorized entering of private property was a violation to the utmost. The property owner was justified and supported in taking necessary actions to remove the trespasser and secure that land. Today, such ideas in the new America are considered radical, old fashioned, out of touch, and even reprehensible. The homeowner can be arrested for defending against an armed intruder. The intruder can actually sue...

On this date in 1791, the Inquisition in Rome condemned magician Alessandro Cagliostro to death — a sentence immediately commuted to imprisonment for the remainder of his life, which turned out to be only four more years. Cagliostro’s rich career as European courts’ thaumaturge of choice might have been decreed by the stars right down to his pitch-perfectly sinister moniker. Is this the shadowy diabolist whom the title character of in The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari is meant to evoke? In fact, his birth name was Giuseppe Balsamo. Naughty by nature from the time of his youthful expulsion from the...

Since 1984, Dr. Anthony Fauci has served as Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. During that period, his salary has steadily increased. The latest federal government payroll study indicated Fauci earned $417,608 in 2019. His salary not only exceeded the President of the United States, but also of every other person in our federal government with over 4 million employees. Clearly, he is not only overrated, but also overpaid. It is high time the highest paid federal government employee, Dr. Anthony Fauci, be fired.

In the last 12 months, I’m fairly certain that most of us have questioned our own sanity a time or two as we try to understand how to navigate the ever-changing regulations and guidance being disseminated not just by Dr. Fauci and the Center for Disease Control, but also from state and local government officials and our well-meaning family and friends. In my opinion, there are many more questions that need to be answered about the nature of COVID-19 and its impact on our future health before we will feel comfortable to live our lives without anxiety and foreboding. However,...

he People’s Republic of China is an existential threat to the national security, health, and prosperity of the United States. Communist China has viewed the U.S. as its primary enemy since its founding by Mao Zedong in 1949. For Beijing, the idea of the Chinese people embracing American-style freedoms is always a threat to their rule. We are a threat to them just by being who we are. As such, we must be attacked. Over the years, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has expanded its economy and military relentlessly, intending to supplant America in world prominence. And now, with a...

“The final piece asks companies to ‘not support, donate to or endorse politicians, political campaigns or political action committees that promoted false conspiracy theories surrounding the 2020 presidential elections (or otherwise acted in ways contrary to a representative democracy)’.” A former federal prosecutor, Glenn Kirschner, has launched a campaign to force “every business in America” to take a pledge that states, in part, that “The 2020 presidential election was free and fair, and produced accurate, reliable results.” Any American business refusing to take this pledge, regardless of their own personal beliefs, will presumably be subjected to the cancel mob. The...

MANILA, Philippines—The Philippine defense chief on March 21 demanded that more than 200 Chinese vessels he said were manned by militias leave a South China Sea reef claimed by Manila, saying their presence was a “provocative action of militarizing the area.” “We call on the Chinese to stop this incursion and immediately recall these boats violating our maritime rights and encroaching into our sovereign territory,” defense minister Delfin Lorenzana said. Authorities said the Philippines coast guard had reported that about 220 vessels, believed to be manned by Chinese maritime militia personnel, were seen moored on March 7 at Whitsun Reef,...

China’s state-controlled media are on the offensive after top Biden administration officials and their Chinese counterparts clashed during their first in-person talks in Alaska.The two-day meeting, covering an array of issues that have strained relations between the two countries, got off to a rocky start on March 18, with Chinese officials reacting angrily to criticisms of the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP’s) human rights abuses and economic coercion.Lashing out over what they described as “unwarranted criticisms,” the Chinese diplomats aired bitter denunciation that veered off the usual diplomatic proceedings, extending the allotted two-minute opening remark for each speaker to a diatribe...

Former President Donald Trump on Sunday ripped the Biden administration for turning the migrant crisis at the southern border into a full-fledged “national disaster.” In the statement released Sunday evening, Trump also urged President Biden to complete construction of a border wall, and accused the administration of “causing death and human tragedy.” “In the span of just [a] few weeks, the Biden Administration has turned a national triumph into a national disaster,” Trump said in the statement. “They are in way over their heads and taking on water fast.” Thousands of migrants have traveled to the US-Mexico border since Trump...

Keiynan Lonsdale doesn't care for labels all too much, as admitted in an interview with BIllboard. Now, rather than identifying with any specific pronoun, Lonsdale wants to go by “tree." The Love, Simon star opened up about sexuality and gender pronouns in an intimate Instagram Live session on Tuesday. When a fan asked if Lonsdale was gay, the actor was surprised to keep getting that question. “Now it just depends on the day. Sometimes I’m bisexual, sometimes I’m gay, sometimes I feel straight, sometimes I’m not anything,” Lonsdale said on Instagram Live. “It doesn’t matter. Either way, throughout all of...

Former Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Scott Gottlieb said that the six-foot social distancing mandate that was employed across much of the United States and the world to deal with the CCP virus pandemic “wasn’t based on clear science.” “This six-foot distancing requirement has probably been the single costliest mitigation tactic that we’ve employed in response to COVID … and it really wasn’t based on clear science. … We should have re-adjudicated this much earlier,” he said in an interview with CNBC. Amid the relaxation of CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus guidelines—including one from the Centers for Disease Control and...

A photojournalist with a major international image subscription service said late last week that every president has allowed him to photograph U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s border operations except for Democrat President Joe Biden. The claims from Getty Images Special Correspondent John Moore comes as a bipartisan group of senators is now demanding that Biden allow the media to see the crisis that has unfolded on Biden’s watch. “I respectfully ask US Customs and Border Protection to stop blocking media access to their border operations. I have photographed CBP under Bush, Obama and Trump but now – zero access is...

(This is not a medical recommendation or study but a proposal that should be examined. Please consult your doctor.)Desperation time is arriving at our door. Our infection rates are reaching all-time highs, hospitals are full, people are unnerved already and the Philippines is far behind other countries in the recovery. Most of us will survive, but many will die unnecessarily; millions of jobs are lost.Real tests are needed, not speeches. Let’s not kid ourselves that survival is proof of resilience and innovativeness; we must improve all performance indicators, including time to adopt the best practical practices. Can we improve this...

[Catholic Caucus] The “Special Year” of St. Joseph is Like the Phoenix. Where It May Be No One KnowsToday, March 19, is the feast of St. Joseph, a saint of whom Jorge Mario Bergoglio has been so fond since his youth that he still keeps at home, in Santa Marta, a statuette of him asleep, “under which,” he has said, “I place little slips with my problems or difficulties, so that he can dream about them at night and tell me what to do” (see photo).It cannot therefore be ruled out that the pope’s bold decision four days ago to...

RUSH EXCERPT: BIDEN: “And so look, I am not saying this is going to be easy, George. I do believe enough republicans of time are going to have.”

Americans have received more than 120 million COVID-19 vaccine doses. Another 2.4 million shots are administered each day. Within the next few months, every adult in the U.S. who wants to be vaccinated will be. But there's a big unanswered question that affects anyone who receives a COVID-19 vaccine: How long will the vaccines provide protection against novel coronavirus infection? This isn't like the old TV game show The $64,000 Question, though. How long COVID-19 vaccines last is a multibillion-dollar question. Billions of dollars on the line Pfizer (NYSE: PFE) and BioNTech (NASDAQ: BNTX) were the first to win U.S....

I've never heard of this lady but she asked this intriguing question and Twitter's almighty algorithm decided it should grace my timeline and so I couldn't help but read some of the replies.I'm glad I did because hoo boy."What was your woke breaking point?" is the question from this woman, who, by the way, defines herself as a liberal in her Twitter bio:As of now there are about 2,000 replies and quote-tweets. Here are 55 of the best, most interesting, and most insane replies ...

There must be something powerful about communism in the structure of armored humans that keeps the ideology alive and well. Despite its failures whenever it has been tried as an experiment, it always comes back with the same destructive force often under a different facade, socialism, progressivism etc. Most recently, it has surfaced in the election of the pseudo-liberal/communists Biden and Harris in the victory of the communist controlled Democratic Party's 2020 American presidential election. The "something" must first be identified and addressed before this social disease of armored humans can finally be put to rest. The power of the...
