    Republican-controlled legislatures are charging forward with a raft of new state laws imposing limits on voting. GOP lawmakers in Montana recently passed new voting restrictions. And GOP legislators in Florida, Arizona and Texas soon could follow — as Republicans scramble to change the ground rules for future elections. “It’s continuing full-speed ahead on this nationwide trend by state legislators to restrict voting access,” said Jonathan Diaz, legal counsel for voting rights at the nonpartisan Campaign Legal Center.
  • COVID nurse explains becoming a whistleblower: ‘I recorded them murdering patients’

    Erin Maria Olzewski, the whistleblower nurse who made headlines last year documenting “fraud, negligence, and greed” that “led to unnecessary deaths” during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, sat down with LifeSiteNews during the Health & Freedom Conference to share her experience and reflections. Olzewski (pronounced OL-CHEZ-SKEE), whose findings were first brought to light in a viral June video titled “Perspectives on the Pandemic: The (Undercover) Epicenter Nurse,” received a strong appreciative reception from the sold-out, 4,000-person event held at Rhema Bible College. A native of Wisconsin, yet a current resident of the Tampa, Florida area, Olzewski, explained how she...
  • Black Rage: It’s All About the Humiliation

    The humiliating thing about being black is that everything has been done for you, by virtue-signalling whites. Ask yourself: suppose you belonged to a social group that led the world in drugged-out losers resisting arrest and teenage knife fighters? How would it make you feel? The answer is obvious. You would feel humiliated. Now you understand what America’s blacks are feeling in the wake of the righteous Chauvin conviction and the tragic death of Knife Girl. But what do people feel when they are humiliated? I went to Churchill’s famous homily: In War: Resolution, In Defeat: Defiance, In Victory: Magnanimity,...

    The shooting by police of Ma’Khia Bryant in Columbus Ohio as she was engaged in the act of attempted murder has brought out all of the worst in our media complex. False claims, narrative-pushing reports, misinformation, and emotional activism have all been prevalent. The miscarriage of journalistic ethics has been stark then, as it appeared the press had reached its nadir last week, in stepped National Public Radio to dig themselves in even deeper.Bodycam footage shows Ma’Khia inches from sending a long-bladed knife into a potential victim just as she was shot, after refusing police orders. The mainstream media has...

    [Unarmed black 3-year-old shot dead, BLM is silent] Police are searching for an unknown suspect after a young boy was shot and killed at a birthday party in Miami over the weekend. The Miami-Dade Police Department said its officers responded to a Shotspotter on Saturday night at around 8 p.m. ET. The gunshot detection system directed officers to a home in the Golden Glades neighborhood, where they found 3-year-old Elijah LaFrance suffering from an apparent gunshot wound.

    The 2.8-mile-long East Street Valley neighborhood, which once flourished here, sure died hard. Drive, walk or cycle past the remnants of it today, and traces of what used to be are everywhere along the hollow of the rolling Allegheny Mountain neighborhoods that lead out of the city proper from the banks of the Allegheny River to the suburbs of Pittsburgh. The remnants of homes, schools, offices, root cellars and even the stone walls of a rose garden stare back at you like ghosts, begging to be remembered as their ancient foundations advance in decay every year. Only St. Boniface Roman...

    Just as physicists look for equations to explain the natural world, I have always thought it useful to look for equations to explain human nature. For example, in my book on happiness, I offer this equation: U = I - R. Unhappiness = Image - Reality. The difference between the images we have for our life and the reality of our life is one way of measuring how much unhappiness we experience. Here, I offer another theorem, this time to help explain leftism. A + S = B = L Affluence + Secularism = Boredom = Leftism The search for...

    That title does not refer to the news or anything going on in the world, at least anything going on in the world that matters. It’s about the Oscars and how awful they were. (Nailed it ahead of time.) When I was a kid, this was appointment TV. Not because the movies were appealing to me, they’ve always nominated movies that appeal to very few people, but because “movie stars” were exciting. Exciting to watch, exciting to hear, etc. You just wanted to live the lives they seemed to be living, and they lived them unapologetically. It was appealing to...

    WASHINGTON (AP) - Vice President Kamala Harris told United Nations members on Monday that now is the time for global leaders to begin putting the serious work into how they will respond to the next global pandemic. The virtual address, Harris' second to a U.N. body since her inauguration, comes as the United States makes progress on vaccinating the public and much of the world struggles to acquire vaccines. “At the same time that the world works to get through this pandemic, we also know that we must prepare for the next,” Harris said in remarks released by her office....

    A Black Los Angeles police officer who has worked in the city's Skid Row area for two decades invited LeBron James to have a discussion about policing following a much-criticized tweet from the Lakers star related to the fatal police shooting of a teenage girl. Deon Joseph, a 24-year veteran of the LAPD, posted a letter to his Facebook page Sunday addressed to James where he called his stance on policing "off base and extreme." James has frequently spoken out against racism and police misconduct in recent years. He came under fire last week after tweeting an image of a...

    Brexit leader Nigel Farage has launched a multi-state tour of the United States, dubbed the “America’s Comeback”, to energise conservative activists during the doldrums of the Biden presidency. Mr Farage — a longtime ally of former President Donald Trump — will travel across “nearly a dozen” states over the next six weeks with the goal of spurring on grassroots conservative activists in America. For the tour, Farage has joined forces with FreedomWorks, one of the largest conservative/libertarian activist groups in America. A source close to Nigel Farage said: “Many conservative activists in the US are downbeat and despondent following the...
  • Restaurants struggle to rehire workers due to unprecedented pandemic jobless payments

    As states begin to ease indoor dining restrictions, the food service industry is having a hard time hiring employees, a difficulty owners blame in part on the disincentivizing effects of supercharged federal unemployment benefits, which are paid to individuals on top of their state benefits. The federal benefit that Congress created in response to the coronavirus pandemic was $600 per week, which amounted to $15 per hour before state benefits were added in. The number of workers eligible for jobless benefits expanded during the pandemic. For the first time, self-employed workers are also able to collect unemployment benefits. House Majority...

    We've seen plenty of classic car restoration jobs in our time, but the salvage project facing the winning bidder of this particular auction item is undoubtedly a daunting prospect. However, buying it could be a very lucrative decision in the long run, according to experts. This rare 1960 Jaguar XK150 S 3.8 Drophead Coupe has seen better days - in fact, it currently looks less like a Drophead and more like dropped-on-its-head. Having been crashed by the owner in 1996 and stored in a garage ever since, it is set to be sold at auction for an estimated guide price...

    The Pfizer pharmaceutical company is conducting trials on an antiviral drug could be ready for public use later this year that is intended to attack the spine of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and result in a cure to the sickness. The oral drug would stop the virus from mutating in the nose, throat and lungs, according to The Telegraph newspaper, ultimately causing the virus to dissipate. The possible home cure is being tested on 60 volunteers ages18 and 60 at Pfizer facilities in the U.S. and Belgium. "We have designed PF-07321332 as a potential oral therapy that could be prescribed at...
