Thirty years ago, Jason Capps was a young man with ambition, but when he looked around this town near Pittsburgh, where he grew up, all he saw were opportunities slipping away. The coal mines where his father worked were dying; the glass, steel and manufacturing industries were on their last legs. In 1987, when Capps graduated from high school, the unemployment rate was at a staggering 12 percent. “My ability to carve out a future here was limited at best, impossible at worst,” he said. “So I left.” Capps, 51, became a chef and traveled the country honing his skills....

Rep. Kat Cammack (R-Fla.) gave a first-hand account of what she saw during a visit to the U.S.-Mexico border, specifically seeing young girls screaming so loud their vocal chords gave out because they had been gang raped. Speaking to Fox News’s “The Story with Martha MacCallum” on Thursday, Cammack said that the way the Trump administration handled the border “was the most humane, compassionate and normal way” of handling illegal immigration and “for putting Americans first, our national security first.” “Just 24 hours ago, I was there in Mission, Texas, and I saw first-hand young girls under the age of...

As I always strive to do, I promise to do my best to be level-headed and non-hysterical. I'm not here to pick a...

Republican attorneys general are determined to mount numerous legal challenges against President Joe Biden, creating a formidable roadblock to the president’s agenda. In less than three months since President Joe Biden was sworn into office, Republican states have waged war on his agenda, suing the administration on climate change, energy, immigration and taxation policy. But the conservative attorneys general who started filing the lawsuits in March said they aren’t done yet and expect to continue challenging the administration in court. “When you step in on day one and start issuing edicts and executive orders like King George, I and a...

On Sunday, just hours after starting to run new, advanced centrifuges that can enrich uranium faster, Iran’s nuclear facility at Nantanz suffered what was termed a “suspicious” blackout. Speculation immediately began in the Israeli media that some kind of cyber attack had crippled the facility. It wouldn’t be the first time Nantanz had been targeted. In 2010, the Stuxnet worm wreaked havoc on the facility’s centrifuges, causing a huge drop in enriched uranium output. These new centrifuges could take the 20 percent enriched uranium that Iran already possesses and jack it up to bomb-grade levels (90 percent) in a matter...

The number of Coronavirus (CV) cases in the U.S. has decreased significantly, but instead the focus has been on the number of masks to wear and that we’re in the middle of a “dark winter.”The current seven-day average of cases is down by 75% from the high, and is now at the same level as in mid-October:Source: Author’s graph of CDC dataWe might wonder why cases are down, and whether this will continue: Cases fell last summer, yet the fall brought an increase that rightly concerned everyone.But what if cases continue to drop, which is what Johns Hopkins medical professor...

As the border crisis gets bigger and bigger, the Biden administration is running out of ideas.

Fresh lockdowns and curfews were imposed on tens of millions of people from India to Argentina on Saturday, as Covid-19 infections surged again and vaccine roll-outs were hampered by shortages and scares over side effects. In India, the worst-hit state of Maharashtra was running out of vaccines as the health system buckled under the weight of the contagion, which has killed 2.9 million people worldwide.

Natural immunity is something the experts do not talk about because herd immunity means the end to them telling us what to do. That...

The study, released on Saturday, compared almost 400 people who had tested positive for COVID-19, 14 days or more after they received one or two doses of the vaccine, against the same number of unvaccinated patients with the disease. It matched age and gender, among other characteristics. The South African variant, B.1.351, was found to...
