A whopping 20 retired French generals and 80 other ex-officers are calling for military rule in the country if President Emmanuel Macron does not halt society's "disintegration caused by Islamists." In response, Macron has threatened to punish generals who signed the open letter that warned the country is heading for "civil war" because of radical Islam.

Very satisfying video. Really needed that laugh!

VIDEORemember when the Republicans tried to halt the audit of the Election 2000 Florida ballots that was conducted by a consortium of liberal news organizations in 2001? No? That's because it NEVER happened. Oh, there was such an audit but the Republicans did NOT object to it at all. Contrast that attitude to now when the Democrats and their media allies are desperately trying to stop the audit of the Maricopa County ballots by portraying it as "dangerous" as you can see in this compilation of news clips.

The 2021 Academy Awards weren't exactly a big hit with audiences. In fact, they recorded their lowest ratings in the show's history. This is my response to Hollywood.

His wife, Pat, actually thought of it first, while watching Donald Trump on the Phil Donahue Show. The former President Nixon agreed with her enough to write Trump and let him know.

Willie Robertson believes it is “un-American” to kneel during the National Anthem. The “Duck Dynasty” star isn’t afraid to voice his opinion and he did so with current and former NFL players Arian Foster, Michael Thomas, and Nate Boyer. The trio of athletes appeared on Willie and his wife Korie’s Facebook Watch series “At Home With the Robertsons.”

The skyrocketing number of COVID-19 cases in India is likely driven by a “far more infectious and probably far more deadly” variant — and is driving hospitals to “beyond [a] crisis point,” a top physician warned Tuesday. Dr. Zarir Udwadia, who works in Mumbai hospitals and consults for the government, said he has seen “ward after ward full of patients struggling to breathe on ventilators of different forms and shapes.”

Former President Bill Clinton will not address photos showing convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and his companion Ghislaine Maxwell visiting him in the White House when he was president of the United States. The photographs depict Epstein and Maxwell attending a White House reception hosted by both Bill and Hillary Clinton in September 1993, William J. Clinton Presidential Library archivist John Keller told the Daily Caller News Foundation. Clinton has denied any knowledge of Epstein’s crimes, and Clinton’s spokesman has said that Clinton has “never been to Little St. James Island.”

Texas, Florida and North Carolina are among the states that will gain congressional seats based on new population data from the U.S. census, a shift that will boost Republican chances of recapturing the U.S. House of Representatives from Democrats in next year’s midterm elections. Blue states losing a seat = California, New York, Michigan, Illinois, Pennsylvania. Red states losing a seat = Ohio, West Virginia. Blue states gaining a seat = Oregon, Colorado. Red states gaining seats = Montana, Florida, North Carolina, and Texas is gaining two seats. Summary = Net gain of +3 seats for red states.

I shared this video yesterday on Facebook (Yes, I know,). NOTE: This is my own video. Just me doing my thing. WTF is the "False information" in it?This morning I checked in to fined a content warning. "False Information The same information was checked in another post by independent fact checkers". When I clicked the link to see why, I got THIS web site. Check it outhttps://www.stopfake.org/ru/fejk-es-znal-o-pandemii-i-zaranee-gotovil-pasporta-vaktsinatsii/

CNN contributor and former US senator Rick Santorum is under fire for “racist” comments that critics said debased Native American culture, prompting calls for his immediate termination. Santorum, 62, told the conservative Young America’s Foundation on Friday that “there isn’t much Native American culture in American culture,” claiming the United States has been largely unchanged since the country was born out of “Judeo-Christian” values.

10:03 AM ET, President Joe Biden will seek $80 billion to fund enhanced Internal Revenue Service enforcement of high-earners to help pay for his American Families Plan, which he is set to unveil later this week, two sources briefed on the proposal told CNN. The administration believes the enhanced measures to crack down on tax evasion will increase revenue for the government by $700 billion, although some outside experts are skeptical and the Congressional Budget Office -- the accepted scorekeeper -- is unlikely to project that much revenue.

The Post reporter further shared a September 2018 Reuters story...

Two weeks ago, Daunte Wright’s death sparked another round of protests and calls to defund/abolish the police. A week later, Derek Chauvin’s trial resulting in a guilty verdict has given the U.S. a reprieve from another round of violent riots. Both of these outcomes could have been anticipated: every time a black civilian dies in an encounter with the police, the conversation immediately becomes about police brutality and police reform. I agree there are many things we could do to reform policing in this country — I have discussed a few possibilities here and here. But while excessive policing is...

Odds are, you haven't seen it on the news - especially if you've been watching CNN - but there's currently an unemployment crisis in America. But not the kind that you might think. Instead of millions of workers vying for a shortage of jobs, the current crisis is comprised of thousands of businesses vying for a shortage of critical workers, many of whom are staying home for no other reason than because federal and state governments are paying them - and quite handsomely, I might add - to do absolutely nothing.Writes Jillian Kay Melchior for the Wall Street Journal:Lots of...
