Rutgers University will require students returning to campus this fall to prove they’ve been vaccinated against Covid-19, becoming one of the first institutions in the U.S. to mandate the immunizations. Rutgers President Jonathan Holloway announced the change Thursday, saying in a statement the university plans to update its immunization requirements for students on campus to include the Covid-19 vaccine. Students will have to prove they’ve been fully vaccinated with any of the three shots currently cleared for use in the U.S. — Pfizer’s, Moderna’s or Johnson & Johnson’s — though students who are under 18 years old will only be...

The takeaway of this tragic story is that Boulder City Council figuratively drew a target on the back of innocent, 23-year-old, white, Serbian Neven Stanisic It should come as no surprise that both city council and Black Lives Matter (BLM) had a hand in Monday’s deadly massacre in Boulder, Colorado. Boulder’s long-hyped racism, targeted by a city council initiative to “combat Whiteness” back in 2015, saw city residents engaged in BLM “anti-racism training” in 2019. Within six years Boulder council’s racism accusation was to become a panic paradox run wild.

A pollster who gauged Americans’ responses to President Joe Biden’s first press conference in real-time said that his replies to questions about running again in 2024 as well as former President Donald Trump cost him his campaign message of “unity.” In a Friday segment with “Fox & Friends,” pollster Lee Carter went through grades given to Biden’s press conference from Democrats, Republicans, and Independents, noting that the Americans in the last two categories generally gave the president poor marks. The most damaging to Biden, however, were remarks he made appearing to dismiss the GOP as a threat by 2024 as...

Beverly Cleary, the grande dame of children’s literature who wrote humorously and realistically about the anxieties of childhood in such enduringly popular books as “Henry Huggins” and “Beezus and Ramona,” has died. She was 104. Cleary, who penned more than 30 books over five decades, died Thursday in Carmel, where she had lived since the 1960s. A former children’s librarian, Cleary became one of the most popular authors in the history of American children’s books.

SAN DIMAS, Calif. (KABC) -- In an apparently random rampage, a woman and her dog were stabbed to death at a San Dimas park Thursday. The suspect was subdued by another man at the park he had also targeted, who hit the attacker in the head with a rock and knocked him out. Police and witnesses say the suspect, who was armed with a knife, first tried to attack another man who was walking near Lone Hill Park around 1:30 p.m. When the man saw the suspect approaching with a knife, he fled and got into his own vehicle.

Explanation: Braided and serpentine filaments of glowing gas suggest this nebula's popular name, The Medusa Nebula. Also known as Abell 21, this Medusa is an old planetary nebula some 1,500 light-years away in the constellation Gemini. Like its mythological namesake, the nebula is associated with a dramatic transformation. The planetary nebula phase represents a final stage in the evolution of low mass stars like the sun as they transform themselves from red giants to hot white dwarf stars and in the process shrug off their outer layers. Ultraviolet radiation from the hot star powers the nebular glow. The Medusa's transforming...

Jeb Bush RetweetedComing 2 America was great, I don't know what everyone is bitching and moaning about. Terrific cast, nice balance of 80s nostalgia and new jokes.

A watchdog group is claiming that a U.S. bio-research nonprofit failed to follow U.S. law and publicly disclose its taxpayer-funded grants to a Chinese coronavirus laboratory under scrutiny for its immediate proximity to the COVID-19 pandemic. The White Coat Waste Project, a group dedicated to stopping taxpayer funding of what it claims is "wasteful and cruel animal experimentation," claimed last week in a filing to the National Institutes of Health's Division of Program Integrity that EcoHealth Alliance has engaged in "widespread violations of federal spending transparency law" by way of numerous press releases over the past several years. Federal tax...

The number of vessels stuck in a traffic jam outside the Suez Canal rose to 200 Friday as recent efforts to free a cargo ship wedged between the Canal’s two banks failed. Dislodging the stuck ship, the Ever Given, could take up to a week, and the vessel can encounter structural issues while it remains stuck, a salvage expert told the Associated Press (AP). The Suez Canal handles approximately 12% of international trade. Its recent blockage threatens to harm the world economy and poses a disruption to global supply chains, CNBC reported.... The ensuing traffic jams forced several cargo ships...

Researchers in Mexico have introduced a new coronavirus mask that covers only the nose, allowing those terrified over the virus to participate in the mask fad while nominally eating at the same time. CBS News touted the game-changing innovation in a video on Twitter. It’s totally unclear how this is even going to reduce transmission of the virus. Obviously, if you’re eating, viral molecules can still escape your open mouth or even your eyes. The science attesting to the utility of masks was always dubious, with death rates roughly the same- or even more- in jurisdictions that utilized mandatory mask...

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said Friday the filibuster was “allowing for systematic racism in the country.” The statement came as Psaki was asked if President Joe Biden thought the filibuster was a legacy of the Jim Crow era in 2005 when he defended the filibuster.

Over just a few hours Thursday, Georgia's Legislature and Gov. Brian Kemp drew the first battle line in the high-stakes struggle to decide how American voters will cast ballots in the future after the pandemic-ridden election of 2020. The Republican-controlled state put itself firmly in the camp of voter ID requirements, limited drop boxes and expanded weekend voting. And depending on the eye of the beholder, it was either a win for election integrity or a return to the era of Jim Crow voter suppression. And the debate may be coming soon to a ballot box near you, as conservatives...

‘We’ve offered U.S. assistance to Egyptian authorities to help reopen the canal,’ White House says

A federal district court judge ruled Thursday caps on religious services in Washington D.C. were unconstitutional going into the Easter holiday. Judge Trevor N. McFadden, appointed under former President Donald Trump in 2017, concluded the district’s guidelines set the nation’s capital apart from the 37 states with no attendance caps on church gatherings. The ruling comes just in time for Easter Sunday on April 4, one year after the holiday was interrupted by state and local officials who implemented guidelines to ban large congregations. Restrictions targeting religious services quickly became a theme of the coronavirus pandemic lockdowns. In Louisville, Democratic...

The modern movement to rationally deal with accelerating tyranny picked up steam in 2013 upon publication of Mark Levin’s Liberty Amendments. Between the thunder of his radio show, and eleven prescriptions to restore free government, Levin reminded us that federalism was the foundation of the unique and proven American system. Federalism is the means to put the ends of the Declaration of Independence into practice. The bold declaration that government exists to secure unalienable rights was refined in the Preamble of the Constitution: We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice,...

After the Trump administration and then-Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin put together what was hailed as the fastest delivery of stimulus payments in history, the Biden administration is receiving criticism for a slow delivery from its $1.9 trillion spending package passed earlier this month. And the criticism is coming from House Democrats, ( The Hill reported), which is pinning blame on the IRS and Social Security Administration (SSA) holdovers from the Trump administration.The payments most delayed are individuals already on government assistance, The Hill reported.[snip]Many people who receive Social Security, Supplemental Security Income, Railroad Retirement Board or Veterans Affairs benefits —...
