John Kerry Is a Constant Disappointment We all knew that the Harris-Biden-Fauci administration was going to be an un-American nightmare. As we have discussed here on more than one occasion, we really didn’t expect it to be this bad. When Grandpa Gropes began putting his team together he went Beltway old school and recycled people from the Obama hell years. A bunch of left-wing bureaucrats who should have been put out to pasture were brought back and given positions of power to further the Democrats’ lust for ruining the Republic.The worst of the Harris-Biden-Fauci administration is John Kerry. Kerry is...

A masked man armed with a sledgehammer was caught on camera Wednesday bashing in the face of a Virgin of Guadalupe statue multiple times at a Van Nuys church. The mural was hand painted 35 years ago... ...Sister Angelie Marie Inoferio said...she’s asking for police to find the person responsible for desecrating the blessed mother. “We cannot judge what is really inside of him, maybe it’s a cry for help,” Inoferio said. “For now, we are praying, hopefully that person someday will be converted and realize that what he did is wrong.” The suspect was seen wearing all black and...

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem Psalm 47Psalm 47[a] For the director of music. Of the Sons of Korah. A psalm. 1 Clap your hands, all you nations; shout to God with cries of joy. 2 For the Lord Most High is awesome, the great King over all the earth. 3 He subdued nations under us, peoples under our feet. 4 He chose our inheritance for us, the pride of Jacob, whom he loved.[b] 5 God has ascended amid shouts of joy, the Lord amid the sounding of trumpets. 6 Sing praises to God, sing praises; sing praises to our...

Editor's Note: This piece was co-authored by David Goetsch.As a member of Congress, Rep. Maxine Waters took an oath to defend the Constitution. When she risked inciting mob violence by telling a crowd of protestors, "We've got to get more confrontational," Waters may well have violated her oath. Writing for The Epoch Times, Harvard professor Alan Dershowitz claimed her tactics were reminiscent of those used by the Ku Klux Klan. By making comments encouraging the worst in protestors, Waters did the opposite of what we expect from our elected officials. Instead of being a peacemaker, she risked whipping a crowd...

A Juneau County woman filed a federal lawsuit Sunday against the company that creates Bagel Bites Pizza Snacks, alleging that the packaging of the product deceives customers because it does not have “real” mozzarella cheese and tomato sauce. According to the lawsuit filed in federal court, Kaitlyn Huber argues that the packaging of Kraft Heinz Foods Company’s pizza bagel snacks is misleading. She alleges the front label’s emphasis on mozzarella cheese and “REAL” dairy is false because the product does not contain real mozzarella cheese. She also argues that “reasonable Wisconsin consumers” would expect a product with tomato sauce to...

...No individual personified the Obama Bros’ supine tango with the mullahs better than then-Secretary of State John Kerry. Kerry, the “statesman” who has been on the wrong side of every major foreign affairs issue since at least the Swift Boats of Vietnam, betrayed his country in borderline-treasonous fashion as Obama’s chief diplomatic lackey. Not content to sell the farm — and scores of unmarked pallets of U.S. taxpayer cash — to a mullocracy with untold American blood on its hands as a diplomat, Kerry then traitorously colluded as a layman with his pal, Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif, to undermine...

Some people are taught to deal with their guilt by placing confidence in the doctrine of "purgatory." I suppose you could compare it to a student working on a project to gain "extra credit" to make up for some bad grades. Unfortunately, the doctrine of purgatory provides false hope because it is based not in fact, but in fantasy. The Catechism of the Catholic Church defines purgatory as a "purification, so as to achieve the holiness necessary to enter the joy of heaven," and is for those who are said to be going to heaven but are nevertheless "still imperfectly...

Thursday marked the 151st birthday of the most successful revolutionary of all time, Vladimir Lenin. With only a tiny cabal of diehard followers, Lenin seized control of the world’s largest country and inaugurated a reign of darkness and terror that lasted seventy years. There are many lessons to draw from the blood-soaked life of Lenin. But one of the most important is this takeaway for the terrifying “woke” moment America is living through right now. Things are not going to naturally get better. Things will not organically “calm down.” Until there is a fundamental reset of America’s treasonous leadership class,...

"How many legs does a dog have if you call his tail a leg?" asked President Abraham Lincoln, who answered his own question: "Four. Saying that a tail is a leg doesn't make it a leg." And Congress' saying that D.C. is a state would equally contradict truth and reality, as our nation's capital lacks all of the attributes of a 51st state of the Union. Whence came our capital of Washington, D.C.? The city was carved out of Maryland and Virginia in 1790, which voted to cede 100 square miles on the Potomac for a capital city of the...

Mr. B.E. HUTCHINSON, of Wisconsin, who left Washington on Thursday afternoon, at 3 o'clock, kindly called upon us yesterday, with details of the latest news. The Seventh Regiment of New-York, arrived in Washington on Thursday noon, having marched twenty miles to the Junction, and that without escort. They were, in fact, the pioneers of the route, and went because they had made up their minds to go any way. The Eighth Massachusetts Regiment, meanwhile, had been at work repairing the railroad and engines, and arrived at Annapolis soon after the Seventh, having laid the rails, repaired the engine, and run...

Containers piled high on giant vessels carrying everything from car tires to smartphones are toppling over at an alarming rate, sending millions of dollars of cargo sinking to the bottom of the ocean as pressure to speed deliveries raises the risk of safety errors. The shipping industry is seeing the biggest spike in lost containers in seven years. More than 3,000 boxes dropped into the sea last year, and more than 1,000 have fallen overboard so far in 2021. The accidents are disrupting supply chains for hundreds of U.S. retailers and manufacturers such as Amazon and Tesla. There are a...

The current 117th Congress is only four months old, but already five Republican senators and six Republican representatives have announced they will not stay in their current jobs.1 Add in a slew of Republican retirements in the 2018 and 2020 election cycles, and a narrative has formed that longtime GOP stalwarts are heading to the exits because they are unhappy with the fanatical turn the party took under former President Donald Trump. “We live in an increasingly polarized country where members of both parties are being pushed further to the right and further to the left, and that means too...

The unintentional bit of hilarity for the day comes from Liz Cheney, who told an interviewer yesterday that, even though she is 24 points down in the latest polls for her re-election in Wyoming, she is not ruling out a potential run for the … wait for it …PRESIDENCY in 2024. I swear I do not make this stuff up.

If you think inflation is already blistering hot - as most companies and survey respondents clearly do - and the worst case been largely priced in, with little inflationary upside left, think again. As Bloomberg notes, last week saw the Bloomberg Agriculture Spot Index rise by the most in almost nine years, to extend the stellar rally seen since last August.Due to the lag between ag costs and finished food prices, the latter are about to soar. And since food is a large component of CPI baskets in Asia, Bloomberg warns that "this large inflationary impulse in the region that...

If this surprises you, what planet have you been living on for the last 50 years? – Really and truly, does it surprise anyone that John Kerry, long an outright and unabashed traitor to our country, is also a traitor to our major ally in the Middle East? If so, what possible reason could you have for feeling that way about the news that Kerry, who served as Barack Obama’s second traitor Secretary of State, and thus still maintained a security clearance during the Trump years, leaked classified intelligence to Iran about Israeli attacks on its nuclear infrastructure? That’s the...

Oil and gas supplier Enterprise Products Partners on Monday sued CPS Energy, a Texas gas and power utility, alleging failure to pay nearly $100 million for natural gas delivered during the state’s February winter storm. The lawsuit is the latest to emerge from a severe cold snap that drove prices and demand for natural gas and electricity to hundreds of times their pre-storm levels. Houston gas prices https://bit.ly/3noiRVL hit $400 per million British thermal units (mmBtu) from about $4.50/mmBtu a week earlier. Enterprise is suing San Antonio municipal utility CPS Energy over payment disputes for sales during the freeze. The...

even if every single American citizen biked to work, carpooled to school, used only solar panels to power their homes – if we each planted a dozen trees...guess what? That still wouldn’t be enough to offset the carbon pollution coming from the rest of the world. If all the industrialized nations went down to zero emissions...it wouldn’t be enough – not when more than 65 percent of the world’s carbon pollution comes from the developing world.”
