"The Election Integrity Alliance will unite groups and efforts across the nation focused on combating election fraud and will build solutions and provide resources to state legislators and the public on challenges to free and fair elections," Jenna Ellis told Just the News. In the wake of the 2020 election contest which former President Trump contends was rife with fraud, the American Greatness Fund is launching the Election Integrity Alliance. "The Election Integrity Alliance will unite groups and efforts across the nation focused on combating election fraud and will build solutions and provide resources to state legislators and the public...

Donald Trump has responded to Facebook’s decision to keep him banned from the platform, at minimum for the next six months. In his statement, Trump called the decision a "total embarrassment" and went nuclear on Big Tech for trying to silence him. Since the decision came on Wednesday several conservatives on Twitter and other websites have called for Congress to get involved.

Facebook’s oversight board voted to uphold a ban on former President Donald Trump’s ability to post content to his Facebook page, as well as his Instagram account. The decision was made on January 7, following the riot at the United States Capitol carried out by supporters of the president. The indeterminate ban was triggered by a video posted by Trump in which he echoed the claim that the 2020 election was stolen, but told the protesters at the Capitol to “go home.” On account of violating the platform's standards, the board agreed to suspend Trump’s pages “indefinitely and for at...

The Rev. Ruth Woodliff-Stanley, who in 2021 was elected to become the first female bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of South Carolina.he Episcopal Diocese of South Carolina, which is still in the midst of a yearslong legal battle with a breakaway group over several church properties, has elected its first female bishop. The Rev. Canon Ruth Woodliff-Stanley won the election on the second ballot at a special meeting of the convention held by the diocese on Saturday, beating out four other candidates. On the second ballot, Woodliff-Stanley received 13 votes in the Lay Order, which required at least 10 votes...

The eminently quotable Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana said sometime back: “Our country was founded by geniuses, but it’s being run by idiots.” I heartily agree, and the problem is not self-correcting. The principles behind the formation of America’s government were and are exquisite, but the American government, like all forms of government, is corrupt as hell. This isn’t an extraordinary statement. Exquisite things often break, and even the noblest of institutions become distorted over time until the original purposes for their creation are eclipsed (and often contradicted) by the personal motives of the men running those institutions into the...

Former President Trump on Wednesday offered his support to Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) should there be an opening in House GOP leadership. Trump and Stefanik spoke Wednesday morning, a source close to the president confirmed. The conversation comes as Stefanik consolidates support to replace Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) as chair of the House Republican Conference should Cheney step down or be voted out. The endorsement was first reported by Punchbowl News. ADVERTISEMENT Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) and Minority Whip Steve Scalise (R-La.), along with many rank-and-file Republicans, are moving to oust Cheney for continuing to speak out against Trump...

Boy, those Chinese Communists have some sense of humor: On Saturday, the Central Political and Legal Affairs Commission posted on its official Sina Weibo account (China’s version of Twitter) a side-by-side image of a Chinese missile launch next to cremation fires in India, captioned “China lighting a fire versus India lighting a fire.” The accompanying hashtag noted that COVID-19 cases in India had surpassed 400,000 a day. The “joke” was horrible. Indeed, the post was eventually deleted after an international outcry.But what grotesque goon would think to go public with such garbage in the first place? Especially since the virus...

President Biden on Tuesday called for patience after leaving Americans confused about whether to continue wearing masks amid CDC guidance that vaccinated people have no reason to continue wearing the COVID-19 shields. Biden has been erratic in his embrace of the CDC’s pivot, drawing ridicule from critics who say Democrats hypocritically accused them of not following science during the pandemic.

Republican lawmakers across the country are moving to restrict teaching about systemic racism in our education system, targeting critical race theory. But in the course of doing so, some are attempting to rewrite a very pertinent part of that history.Twice in recent weeks, Republican state lawmakers have defended the infamous “Three-Fifths Compromise” — the constitutional agreement by which enslaved people would count as three-fifths of a person for representation purposes — by arguing that it was actually somehow anti-slavery.

It’s becoming increasingly clear as the pandemic continues to wind down that the goal of achieving “herd immunity” in the U.S. won’t be possible — at least, as it’s defined by public health officials. Too many of us decline to be vaccinated for the U.S. to meet the target goal of 70-90 percent of citizens who have either been vaccinated or contracted Covid-19.Instead, we’ve got to accept the fact that the virus will become a “manageable threat” and continue to bedevil the world for years to come.“The virus is unlikely to go away,” said Rustom Antia, an evolutionary biologist at...

In an eye-opening report, OANN reporter Pearson Sharp reveals an exclusive 2017 CNN report showing how easily voting machines could be hacked in the United States. Curiously, the network that’s been mocking Trump supporters for suggesting voter fraud took place in November, aired their exclusive report after Trump beat Hillary in the 2016 election. In their exclusive report, CNN visits a DefCon Hacking Conference showing “a room full of hackers” who are all trying to hack into voting machines used in U.S. elections. The hackers were told to break into the voting machines and reverse engineer them, using any means...

Warmonger Liz Cheney, who has virtually no support left in the Great State of Wyoming, continues to unknowingly and foolishly say that there was no Election Fraud in the 2020 Presidential Election when in fact, the evidence, including no Legislative approvals as demanded by the U.S. Constitution, shows the exact opposite. Had Mike Pence referred the information on six states (only need two) back to State Legislatures, and had gutless and clueless MINORITY Leader Mitch McConnell (he blew two seats in Georgia that should have never been lost) fought to expose all of the corruption that was presented at the...

China is covertly conducting surveillance and even tracking people’s movements in North America using what’s called “a social credit system,” trying to advance its totalitarian authority all over the world even in free nations. The Gatestone Institute, a non-partisan, not-for-profit international policy council, and think tank, reports seven years ago, China’s State Council issued guidelines for the establishment of a national “social credit system” by 2020, with the feeds from about 626 million surveillance cameras and smartphone scanners and with data from a multitude of sources. The system was designed to keep tabs on every Chinese citizen’s behavior. For example,...

Yesterday, we called out Morning Joe for mentioning George Floyd six times but failing to breathe a word about the Chauvin trial juror who wore a BLM hat, and a T-shirt emblazoned "Get Your Knee of Our Necks" to a protest rally in Washington DC that Al Sharpton's organization had billed as the 'Commitment March: Get Your Knee Off Our Necks,' and at which several members of the Floyd family spoke. Before being selected as a juror, that person, Brandon Mitchell, denied to the judge having attended a demonstration about police brutality. Morning Joe continued its unconscionable blackout of the...

When former Director of the U.S. Center for Disease Control (CDC) Robert Redfield said in March that “the most likely etiology of this pathogen in Wuhan was from a laboratory, you know, escaped,” people should have taken him seriously. Now The Epoch Times’ Nicole Hao has reported that the People’s Liberation Army (PLA), the military arm of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), “collaborated” with the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV). However, Hao noted, the Chinese Foreign Affairs Ministry and Shi Zhengli, “the WIV virologist nicknamed ‘Bat Woman’ for her research on coronaviruses of bat origin,” have denied that there was...

Last week, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released new guidance to help summer camps mitigate their coronavirus risk. Given that summer camps involve both children and the outdoors—two factors that render COVID-19 significantly less worrisome—and will be opening in the wake of widespread vaccination, one might have expected the CDC to depart from its characteristic over-caution.

House Representative and professional race baiter Maxine Waters declared that America is becoming more racist every day while firing off a fusillade of lies: “Well, you know I don’t know if he was counseled to say that or whether he really believes that. If you really believe that, then he has missed not only the history of the country but what is going right now. As we watched the invasion of the Capitol on January 6, those people following Trump say they were taking back their government, and they were willing to harm people. As a matter of not only...

Maricopa County officials have not fully complied with the State Senate’s election audit subpoenas, a decision made to avoid causing a “significant security risk” to data utilized by numerous law enforcement agencies, the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office said Monday. “We had previously believed that the risk would be eliminated by redacting the law enforcement data on the routers and not producing it. But we were informed that redaction did not eliminate the risk,” Deputy County Attorney Joseph LaRue wrote in a letter to Senate Audit Liaison Ken Bennett. “We also learned that if criminal elements or others gained access to...
