    On the home page of his lovey-dovey wedding website from 2019, ex-State Trooper Dwayne Correia #3562 includes this sappy bromide from Nicholas Sparks: “Marriage is about becoming a team. You’re going to spend the rest of your life learning about each other, and every now and then things blow up.” Things blew up big-time for Dwayne Correia last Aug. 11. It was such a bad day for this week’s disgraced state cop that the MSP wrote a 23-page report on his sordid misadventures in Rhode Island (where he’d gotten married, on Goat Island, almost exactly one year earlier). Even though...

    A freelance CNN contributor reportedly tweeted praise for Hitler on Sunday amid the ongoing hostilities between Israel and Hamas. In a since-deleted post, Adeel Raja, a journalist based out of Pakistan, wrote, “the world today needs a Hitler,” the Washington Examiner reported. Raja has freelanced for CNN since 2013, according to his LinkedIn account, working on several stories for the network during that time, the report said. After learning of the post, CNN cut ties with Raja.

    The Biden Administration inexplicably made the decision to divert over $2 billion in federal funds away from healthcare programs, and instead direct those funds towards helping illegal aliens in the country, according to Breitbart. The report first came from Politico, which says that Biden’s “Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has diverted more than $2 billion meant for other health initiatives toward covering the cost of caring for unaccompanied migrant children.” Among the funds that were redirected include “$850 million that Congress originally allocated to rebuild the nation’s Strategic National Stockpile, the emergency medical reserve strained by the COVID-19...

    AT&T says it will receive an $43 billion in a combination of cash and debt ===================================================================== AT&T said Monday the U.S. telecommunication giant has reached a deal to combine its content unit, WarnerMedia, with Discovery, an agreement that would help the major Hollywood studios compete with such rivals as Netflix and Disney. AT&T says it will receive an $43 billion in a combination of cash, debt and WarnerMedia’s retention of certain debt, according to CNBC. The deal, if approved by regulators, effectively reverses AT&T’s years-long plan to combine content and distribution in a vertically integrated company. The deal would create...

    There can be no compromise with those whose political program requires erasing American citizens' constitutionally guaranteed rights to freely speak and freely worship. On May 15, Fox News reported that three Republican senators would like to write caveats into the Equality Act that might give them the political cover to vote for the bill to criminalize free speech and Christianity in the United States.“Representatives from the offices of Sens. Thom Tillis, R-N.C.; Rob Portman, R-Ohio and Susan Collins, R-Maine, met with groups including the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), Concerned Women for America, the Family Research Council and American...
  • Ukraine seized Chernobyl vodka. The scientists who made it want it back

    A team of British and Ukrainian scientists are battling Ukraine's government in court for the return of 1,500 bottles of liquor made from "radioactive" apples grown near the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. The liquor, branded as Atomik, is part of a four-year experiment by the scientists to see if they could produce a product safe to consume from crops grown in an area that was contaminated during the 1986 nuclear disaster at the plant. The team sourced the apples from a farmer inside the outer ring of the 18-mile "Exclusion Zone." Around 10,000 people still live in that outer zone...

    Dr. Anthony Fauci told graduating college students on Sunday that the pandemic brought out deep-rooted divisions in society. “Societal divisiveness is counterproductive in a pandemic,” Fauci, President Biden’s chief medical adviser, said in a video commencement speech to Emory University students. “We must not be at odds with each other since the virus is the enemy, not each other.” Fauci, who was awarded the president’s medal from the university, urged the graduates to incorporate public service into their lives even if it is not part of their full-time careers.

    Antrim County attorney Matthew DePerno has been taking heavy flak for pushing for an audit of the 2020 election despite mainstream media silence on his blockbuster announcements. He gave us one such blockbuster on NOQ Report last week when he showed how a rogue program was present on Antrim County voting and tabulation machines. Then, this weekend brought strange developments to his story. First, he announced a bombshell coming up that was worthy of a press conference scheduled for today. Apparently someone is terrified by the prospects of the attorney revealing even more about voter fraud because his law office...

    What will be the results of a Pelosi/Biden government? Many think there will be inflation. Milton Friedman taught us that “Inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon, in the sense that it cannot occur without a more rapid increase in the quantity of money than in output.” The $2Trillion Covid relief plus the !5% minimum wage plus the forgiveness of college loans all pump money into the economy. Those actions are the very definition of monetary phenomena. The Bureau of Economic Analysis keeps us informed on the inflation rate but fails in one respect. The inflation information provided leaves...

    Israeli warplanes unleashed another wave of heavy airstrikes on the Gaza Strip Monday, destroying about 60 miles of militant tunnels and the homes of nine Hamas commanders — and also killing a senior Islamic Jihad leader, the military said. IDF spokesman Lt. Col. Jonathan Conricus told reporters Monday that it had assassinated Hussam Abu Harbeed, who commanded Islamic Jihad’s northern Gaza brigade and led attacks against Israeli soldiers and civilians for almost 15 years. In a statement, the IDF said Harbeed “was behind several anti-tank missile terror attacks against Israeli civilians.” One of those attacks occurred on the first day...

    NewsBusters ^ | 5/17/2021 | Joseph Vazquez
    The media have embraced a dystopian vision by encouraging businesses to mandate vaccines as a prerequisite for employment. The woke company Delta Air Lines has reportedly caved to anti-freedom and un-American pressure from the left. Business Insider reported that Delta Air Lines “will mandate COVID-19 vaccines for new hires.” In addition, “the company may stop current staff members from working on international flights if they refuse a vaccine, its CEO [Ed Bastian] said.” Bastian reportedly told CNN May 13 that “‘[a]ny person joining Delta in the future, a future employee, we're going to mandate they be vaccinated before they can...

    A case of buyer beware or sellers’ deceit? A B.C. couple who purchased a motorhome in a private sale before driving it or even seeing it sued the sellers because they found it was unsafe to drive and said the sellers knew it. Sandra Burnstad and Richard Long asked for the sellers to refund their $4,500 because the motorhome was “undriveable and unsellable.” They told B.C.’s civil resolution tribunal they hadn’t agreed to purchase it when they gave the sellers the full amount they asked for and were only taking it for a test drive. They say first discovered the...

    SPECIAL DISPATCH FROM WASHINGTON. No more troops except for the war will be ordered in this direction. Troops for the short service will, however, be accepted at present in the Western service. WASHINGTON, Thursday, May 16. A messenger from Cairo arrived to-night, and reported immediately at the War Department. He is to return by the first morning train. He says everything there is in good condition. There was much excitement when he left, in anticipation of an attack and hot work. There is no reason for any belief that the Europeans powers will in any way give aid or comfort...
