... Beginning last May, Minneapolis was the scene of riots in protest of George Floyd’s death, riots that destroyed 100 buildings and caused hundreds of millions of dollars in damage from fires and looting. By June of that year the area riots were the cause of two deaths and over $500 million in damage. The corporate media and (I’m sorry to say, universities and schools as well) harped on the death as yet more evidence of some nonsense called “systemic racism,” suggesting that the death was deliberate. In fact, none of the three charges against Chauvin indicated that he intentionally...

As a rule, people who fight public disclosure tend to have something to hide. Democrats revealed how deeply they fear the discovery of ballot fraud in Arizona when they fought tooth and nail to prevent the audit now underway at the Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Phoenix. Monica Showalter explained how hard they fought – and lost – thanks to a judge with guts that demanded a million-dollar bond from them to cover costs they might impose through their efforts to delay the count. Yesterday saw the auditors at work, livestreamed from 9 different camera angles. One of the tests they...

Image from indystar.com video, cropped, scaled, arrows and lettering added by Dean Weingarten One of the tactics used by the far left to disrupt the lives of private citizens and to show their power, is to block roadways, streets, and public right of ways. Blocking public right of ways has been a minor crime. Most states have statutes that require vehicles to give way to pedestrians.The far-left found this weakness in the system, which allowed them to disrupt and endanger tens of thousands of other people without serious penalty for themselves.Once vehicles were stopped, the drivers and passengers would be...

South Korean President Moon Jae-in criticized former President Trump's attempts to denuclearize the Korean Peninsula, telling the New York Times he "beat around the bush" with North Korea and "failed to pull it through." Why it matters: Moon, now in his final year in office, called denuclearization a "matter of survival" for South Korea and urged President Biden to resume negotiations with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un after a standstill of nearly two years. What they're saying: “I hope that Biden will go down as a historic president that has achieved substantive and irreversible progress for the complete denuclearization and...

Stop lying. Stop insulting our intelligence. I may have been born yesterday, but I wasn't born in the past 15 minutes. I'm an adult. I know when I'm being conned. Here's what really happened at the Derek Chauvin trial: A guilty man was railroaded. I'm no fan of that former police officer. He's clearly a bad guy, a bully. When he had his knee on George Floyd's neck, he passed the line no cop should ever pass. On the other hand, George Floyd was no hero. He was a lifelong criminal. When he died, he had just committed a crime...

The duo were invited to the White House, after Epstein reportedly donated to the Oval Office refurbishing. They toured the East Room and the presidential residence during a reception.

A Queens mom charged with murdering her six-week-old twins had initially tried to kill them by feeding the infants poisoned milk and may have spent up to four days with their corpses, according to prosecutors. Danezja Kilpatrick, 23, was arraigned on Saturday morning, two days after she was arrested for allegedly murdering baby son Dakota and daughter Dallas. Police first found the infant boy inside a bedroom crib at Kilpatrick's Woodside apartment with a blade still inside his skull.

To produce some viruses for study, in the hope of eradicating them, scientists use monkey kidney cells. It’s the perfect environment for them to replicate; to grow. For the virus that is progressivism, the media is the monkey kidneys, and to eliminate the threat that this left-wing sibling of communism, socialism, and fascism poses to the world, that delivery device needs to be destroyed. The profession, or at least what it used to be and is supposed to be, is important to the country. People need to know what is happening in their world. But what we have now is...

No one in India is safe. This infection has seeped so deeply into the community that it is impossible to avoid the virus with its new, seemingly more infectious mutations, spreading through entire families like wildfire. Yesterday, India recorded a record coronavirus death toll for the third day running. Since Wednesday, there have been more than one million infections in what has now been described as the most deadly outbreak in the world. The worst affected areas, including New Delhi, Mumbai and the state of Maharashtra, have run out of hospital beds and oxygen, the lifesaver that Covid sufferers most...

The wife of the Asian man critically injured after being repeatedly kicked in the head by a stranger in East Harlem begged police Saturday to bring her husband’s attacker to justice — and make him “pay.” Yao Pan Ma, 61, was collecting cans Friday to help the family make ends meet along Third Avenue and East 125th Street when a madman struck him from behind, knocked him to the ground and kicked him in the head at least six times — a horrific, caught-on-video attack that comes amid a surge of anti-Asian hate crimes. “Please capture him as soon as...

During Saturday’s broadcast of CNN’s “Smerconish,” Rep. Mondaire Jones (D-NY) decried GOP opposition to making the District of Columbia a U.S. state.

FRiends, prayers requested. My brother in law is 43 years old. He had type 2 diabetes for many years but did not do much to control it.

He and his four children (20, 18, 16, 14) need healing. He was an an angry and verbally and physically abusive father to the children. It's a complicated story... PLEASE pray that he and his children would be given the gift of FORGIVENESS and...

Moderna’s latest analysis of its vaccine clinical trial data shows 900 people got COVID-19 after being vaccinated, consistent with 90% or more efficacy for the vaccine, company spokesperson Colleen Hussey said. Pfizer spokesperson Jerica Pitts said the company would monitor trial participants for two years after their second dose to learn more about the Pfizer vaccine’s protection against COVID-19. In its reporting, the CDC is defining a breakthrough case strictly as illness or a positive test two weeks or more after full vaccination. But tens of thousands of people who have had a first shot or are short of two...

A viral year-old Josh fight meme came to life Saturday as a horde of guys named Josh gathered in a random Nebraska field to "fight for the right to keep this common name," according to organizer Josh Swain. The fight to be the one true Josh started exactly one year ago, when a Josh Swain gathered every other Josh Swain he could find on Facebook and challenged them to battle.
