The United States Supreme Court has shielded Hillary Clinton from facing a deposition over her alleged misuse of classified emails while she served in the Obama administration. On Monday, the highest court in the land rejected the effort by political watchdog group Judicial Watch to depose the former secretary of state.

Joe Biden on Monday said he “shares the sentiment” of CDC Director Rochelle Walensky who warned of “impending doom” with the Covid case trajectory. “We have so much to look forward to, so much promise and potential…and so much reason for hope, but right now I’m scared,” Walensky said of a virus with a 99.98% survival rate. The US is currently recording a weekly average of approximately 63,000 Covid cases per day, a slight uptick from last week. Biden said he shares the sentiment with Walensky.

WASHINGTON (AP) — When former President Donald Trump was asked to list those he considers the future leaders of the Republican Party, he quickly rattled off names including Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and Sens. Josh Hawley and Ted Cruz. Conspicuously absent from the list: Mike Pence. The former vice president is steadily reentering public life as he eyes a potential run for the White House in 2024. He’s joining conservative organizations, writing op-eds, delivering speeches and launching an advocacy group that will focus on promoting the Trump administration’s accomplishments.

Rick Wilson, Pete Snyder SURPRISE! Never Trumper and Russia Hoaxer Rick Wilson Lived With Virginia Governor Candidate Pete Snyder Down the Hall from “Russian Hookers” Lincoln Project co-founder, Never Trumper, and pedophile protector Rick Wilson spent years hyping the Russia Hoax nonsense against President Trump, including the now-debunked smear that he spent the night with Russian prostitutes in Moscow. As it turns out, Wilson is the one familiar with Russian hookers – he’s admitted so himself. In recently unearthed tweets Wilson directed at his longtime pal Pete Snyder – the former RNC chair of Mitt Romney’s campaign in Virginia who...

A confusing and unintelligible tweet released by U.S. Strategic Command (Stratcom) Sunday night drew ridicule and thousands of shares on Twitter after the military arm tweeted “;l;;gmlxzssaw.” The garbled message, released at 7:48 p.m., received more than 11,000 retweets and hundreds of comments before it was deleted roughly half an hour later. “Apologizes for any confusion. Please disregard this post,” Stratcom, based at Offutt Air Force Base, Neb., tweeted quickly thereafter, then deleted that apology. The bizarre message drew speculation that it was the military’s inadvertent release of the “nuclear launch codes,” jokes that a cat was allowed on the...

"Chernobyl," HBO's five-part mini-series about the 1986 disaster at a Soviet atomic reactor. This film is reasonably accurate historically, well worth watching, and horrifying. Don't watch it right before bedtime! One expert in the film comments that atomic power is wonderful ... when working normally. It emits no heat-trapping carbon dioxide and generates large amounts of electricity. The film, however, depicts the tremendous dangers when something goes wrong. This disaster resulted from reactor operators' mistakes combined with a design fault in the reactor. It rendered the city of Chernobyl and around 1,100 square miles of surrounding land uninhabitable for centuries....

We’ve reached a point of media insanity where liberal outlets are trying to convince people that pollution causes their private parts to shrink.

March 25 (UPI) -- Police in Ontario said an officer pulled over a motorcyclist whose license plate was clearly homemade -- and misspelled. Sgt. Steve Koopman of the Kingston Police Service said patrol officers stopped a motorcycle when they noticed the vehicle's license plate didn't quite look official. Koopman tweeted a photo of the hand-painted plate, which was marked for Ontario, but featured the slogan "Live Free or Die" from license plates issued by the U.S. state of New Hampshire. The slogan misspelled the word "free." "We apparently have some burgeoning artists in #ygk," Koopman tweeted. "Patrol officers again snagged...

After winning a fierce re-election battle in the 2020 election, a prominent Republican revealed Monday that he has been diagnosed with prostate cancer and will undergo surgery in North Carolina next week.

A SpaceX Starship rocket flies high above South Texas on Tuesday, minutes before the test flight crashed and exploded in fog below. Photo courtesy of SpaceX March 30 (UPI) -- A fourth Starship rocket prototype for Elon Musk's SpaceX launch company exploded after a test flight on Tuesday morning in South Texas. As with previous test flights, SpaceX flew Starship -- model SN11 -- to over 6 miles high above the launch facility about 180 miles south of Corpus Christi. The rocket then glided on wing flaps back to the launch pad. Heavy fog and problems with the video feed...

It’s late March. The weather here in my hometown of Pittsburgh, echoing much of the region, dipped from consecutive days of ‘65 and sunny’ to a stretch of cooler temperatures with brief but sudden storms. You may have noticed, or seen repeated approvingly in newspapers around the country, that the political temperature in America is supposedly lower too. Some articles even note that relieved Americans are tuning out from politics, that cable news is facing a ratings drop off, and that even Twitter feels different due to a curious absence of all caps tweets. What the headlines should read is...

Focus Forward We’ve outsourced our citizen responsibilities to the wrong people.Traditional America is essentially leaderless. The colors have fallen in battle and no one has picked them up. The colonels and captains are pretending they don’t see it, while the corporals and privates, who fear being overrun, are fixing bayonets.Ever notice how the politicians who are reportedly “concerned” about your job being offshored are the same ones voting for the bills to offshore your job, outsourcing it to H1-B replacement worker programs, or hosting political fundraisers with offshoring and outsourcing lobbyists? Yeah, strange isn’t it?Just acknowledge it. Those people you...

"I've known Xi Jinping for a long time. ... He doesn't have a democratic -- with a small 'd' -- bone in his body," said Joe Biden in his first press conference as president, and then he ambled on: "He's one of the guys, like (Russian President Vladimir) Putin, who thinks that autocracy is the wave of the future -- democracy can't function in an ever-complex world. "It is clear, absolutely clear ... that this is a battle between the utility of democracies in the 21st century and autocracies. ... We have to prove democracy works." Thus did Biden frame...

The Epoch Times is no stranger to censorship from China, but the publication has recently been forced to grapple with censorship here in the United States. Founded in 2000 by Chinese immigrants to the United States who hoped to expose the truth of their birth country’s repressions, the paper quickly grew in popularity. The publication’s website now receives nine million unique visitors and 30 million page-views per month. The Epoch Times has been a consistent voice for freedom, and has helped inform the world of the human rights atrocities in China. The newspaper has seen firsthand the consequences of pursuing...

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. home prices increased at the fastest pace in seven years in January as the pandemic has fueled demand for single-family houses even as the supply for such homes shrinks. The S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller 20-city home price index, released Tuesday, rose 11.1% in January from a year earlier. That's the biggest gain since March 2014. Prices rose in all 20 cities, and the 12-month increase was larger for all cities in January than in the previous month. “January’s data remain consistent with the view that COVID has encouraged potential buyers to move from urban apartments to suburban...

A private social services nonprofit booted a foster family with four kids from its home in order to house unaccompanied migrants. As a result, one foster teen was hospitalized with anxiety. Another teen ran away and as of Monday, is still missing. Kirkland-based Friends of Youth (FOY) owns a property in Renton called the Howard House. They decided to transition to a new source of funding, ditching local foster children for migrants from the border. The group removed Edmundo Serena Sanchez, his wife, and their four teenage foster kids from the home. FOY is turning the residence into a group...

In this series of articles on The Virus, I’ve been exposing the gaping holes in various aspects of the Narrative. If SARS-CoV-2 has never been isolated, purified, and extracted according to the scientific procedures that have long been in place for isolating, purifying, and extracting bacteriophages and other “giant viruses,” then two questions need to be asked and answered: (1) What accounts for the endless stream of COVID cases upon which Big Media has been breathlessly reporting for the last year? (2) From what are all of these people getting sick and dying? In my last essay, I answered...

Nothing exemplifies the corporate collusion to control thought better than an article in the New York Times' opinion section. Charlie Warzel, one of the Times' opinion writers, argues that conventional critical-thinking skills become useless when confronting the massive amount of information available online. Instead, Warzel advocates simplifying the process by limiting internet browsing to one or two trusted sources -- such as Google or Wikipedia -- to evaluate quickly whether a subject warrants further research. But FrontPage Magazine reported in "What if the 'Conspiracy' is Real?" that Google and Wikipedia manipulate information that contradicts their political agendas. Both did...

I was once a waif left on the street as a little girl unaware that there were prowling predators that saw me as their next meal to consume in lascivious deprived animal instincts, In filthy rags I fought to make my way out of the city and with a last burst of desperation for survival found a green glow of light. I heard a voice, “little child, little girl; follow the sound of my voice”. I followed the voice, but the predators seeing their meal ticket escaping tried to grab me and take me back but a Hero rose from...
