A Trafalgar Group poll released Thursday indicates President Joe Biden may have trouble in a 2024 presidential primary, should he choose to run for a second term. The survey of likely Democrat primary voters, conducted April 30 through May 6, found 36.7 percent said they would “absolutely” vote for Biden, while 20.7 percent said they would “likely” vote for the incumbent, totaling 57.4 percent

I explore some of the main criticisms of Israel's response to Hamas, and examine the atheist obsession with American evangelicalism.

Bill Maher now admits that the Russiagate story that he helped promulgate while Donald Trump was president had elements that were "reported erroneously." The liberal TV talk show host made the admission on the latest episode of "Real Time with Bill Maher."

With the White House on Monday reminding Americans that families would start receiving direct cash payments starting in July, President Joe Biden’s financial assault on the workforce is set for an alarming expansion. The federal government will start sending families direct cash payments of $300 per child under six years old and $250 to those between seven and eighteen. While this might seem to be a good thing, it is guaranteed to have five very negative effects. Increasing inflation which is already going through the roof at more than doubling since Biden became president to 4.2 percent will continue to...

President Biden is heading to a Ford Motor plant in Michigan on Tuesday to highlight the need to invest in electric vehicles as the White House looks to drum up support for his $2.3 trillion tax and spending plan, which includes billions to transform the auto industry. Biden will tour Ford's new Rouge Electric Vehicle Center in Dearborn, Michigan, where the company is producing its new electric F-150 lightning pickup, ahead of the truck's official launch on Wednesday. The F-150 Lightning, which Ford is heralding as a tu "The president is going there because electrifying America’s best-selling vehicle is an...

Joe Biden seems royally dazed and confused these days and his condition is only getting worse. That is apparent to anyone who listens to him flub up reading from his teleprompter in the Rose Garden. His crack aides set the device to scroll at minimum speed with letter fonts readable from space. Joe still screws it up. Jen Psaki recently called him “our North Star” which is amusing because in biblical times the North Star led the three wise men to Jerusalem to worship the baby Jesus. Hmmm. Yeah, I don’t think that Joe is leading anyone to see the...

At least 6,000 people, including around 1,500 minors, swam from Morocco to the bordering Spanish enclave of Ceuta on Monday in the largest influx of illegal migration there in a single day, Spanish authorities said. The migrants swam from two locations, with some entering southern Ceuta at Tarajal beach, and a larger group entering the north of the city at Benzu beach, a spokesman for the Spanish government in Ceuta told CNN. One man drowned in the process, the spokesman added. At both locations, migrants swam around rocky breakwaters jutting out into the Mediterranean that mark the border between the...

In a world in which massive violations of human rights have, tragically, become the norm, why has the hard left focused on one of the least compelling of those causes — namely, the Palestinians? Where is the concern for the Kurds, the Chechens, the Uyghurs, the Tibetans? There are no campus demonstrations on their behalf, no expressions of concern by “the Squad” in Congress, no United Nations resolutions, no recurring op-eds in The New York Times, and no claims that the nations that oppress these groups have no right to exist. On the merits and demerits of their claims, the...

Observing the ouster of Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) from her House leadership position and her criticism of former president Donald Trump, reminded me of a '70s TV ad for Listerine mouthwash. The company attempted to use the product's bad taste to its advantage. The ad said: "It's got the taste people hate - twice a day." The Republican establishment may hate Donald Trump, but they would be hard-pressed to deny how effective his policies were, pre-COVID-19. The 74 million people who voted for him is a formidable number. Whatever some may think of his personality -- and I deplore how...

In an interview with Good Morning America Tuesday morning, Dr. Anthony Fauci admitted to having continued to wear a mask indoors for appearance's sake, not based on the science surrounding the protection of the vaccine. CLICK ABOVE LINK FOR THE VIDEO Responding to questions on how the new mask mandates have changes his own personal mask wearing tendencies, Fauci responded, "I'm obviously careful because I'm a physician and a healthcare provider. I am now much more comfortable in people seeing me indoors without a mask. "Before the CDC made the recommendation change," Fauci admitted, "I didn't want to look like...

No charges will be filed against North Carolina sheriff's deputies involved in the fatal April shooting of Andrew Brown Jr., a 42-year-old [black] man whose family claims he was "executed" as he sat in his car. Elizabeth City, North Carolina, District Attorney Andrew Womble said at a news conference on Tuesday morning that the three deputies who opened fire on Brown, a father of seven, were justified in their use of deadly force because Brown drove his vehicle toward them and allegedly made contact with them twice before they fired their weapons.

The CDC, OSHA, and common sense are clear. Businesses that mandate their employees, whether new hires or current, to take the Covid-19 vaccines as a requirement for employment are liable for lawsuits if ANY adverse reactions occur. As we’ve documented many times on NOQ Report, there have been a slew of reports of major negative reactions to the Covid-19 vaccines, including paralysis, brain clots, and death.Mainstream media is doing their part in not reporting on these as much as possible, covering up anything that goes against the accepted narrative regarding these vaccines. But as the cases mount up, even the...

Francis delivers “good news”On Friday, May 14, Jorge Bergoglio (stage name, Francis) addressed the opening of a meeting held in Rome called the General States of Birth. The online meeting was hosted by the Forum of Family Associations, a European “organization that unites 47 national associations and 20 regional Forums representing the reality of 4 million families.” I heard of the address from a “contributing writer at National Catholic Register” who hailed the presentation in a Facebook post, writing:IMPORTANT and UNDERREPORTED (ask why?)VATICAN—This speech by Pope Francis took place yesterday, addressing Italian leaders including PM Draghi. Note his support of...

Vice President Kamala Harris and her husband Doug Emhoff released their tax returns Tuesday, showing they only donated a sliver of their income to charity. Harris and Emhoff earned $1,695,225 in 2020, largely from Emhoff’s work as an attorney but donated only $27,006 to charity.

Kamala Keeps Enemies List of Journalists Binders full of racists Vice President Kamala Harris keeps a list of reporters and other political types who might be racist, according to a profile published in the Atlantic on Monday. “The vice president and her team tend to dismiss reporters. Trying to get her to take a few questions after events is treated as an act of impish aggression,” writes Edward-Isaac Dovere. “And Harris herself tracks political players and reporters whom she thinks don’t fully understand her or appreciate her life experience.” That list presumably includes the people at Vogue magazine, who managed...

Because of his longevity in politics and underdog personality, combined with the depth of the crises he is facing, President Joe Biden is undoing a long-standing Washington tradition in which staff members enjoy their own refracted fame. Gone are the days when a counselor to the president like Kellyanne Conway was so well-known that she needed her own security detail; when a White House press secretary like Sean Spicer was a recurring character on “Saturday Night Live”; when a policy adviser like Stephen Miller was not only recognized but booed out of a restaurant; and when a glamorous, drama-prone communications...

The recent destruction of a building housing the offices of media outlets during Israel’s latest conflict with Hamas led to the usual suspects calling for the protection of journalists to be a higher priority. The only problem is they ignored two attacks that took place in the United States — only those targeted in America were the “wrong” kind of journalists. The Intercept, which once smeared SEAL Team Six, has targeted a number of journalists from Townhall and the Daily Caller for their coverage of the riots in the summer of 2020. In essence, the Intercept’s “reporter” has painted targets...

Imagine an entire twenty-story concrete building that can store energy like a giant battery. Thanks to unique research from Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, such a vision could someday be a reality. Researchers from the Department of Architecture and Civil Engineering recently published an article outlining a new concept for rechargeable batteries — made of cement. The ever-growing need for sustainable building materials poses great challenges for researchers. Doctor Emma Zhang, formerly of Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, joined Professor Luping Tang’s research group several years ago to search for the building materials of the future. Together they have now...

This morning a brutal and racist video surfaced. The video is filmed in some food chain store, people online claim that is Pizza Hut! In the video, there is an obese black woman brutally beating a white woman and dragging her like yesterday’s thrash before literally stomping on her head. WATCH (warning: graphic video): Twitter Link ** (Disclaimer: This video content is intended for educational and informational purposes only) ** It’s funny how everybody assumed the child was the attackers’ kid as you can see from the racist comments in the video above, in reality, the kid was trying to...

Gov. Greg Abbott notified the U.S. Department of Labor that Texas will end its participation in pandemic-related federal unemployment compensation starting June 26. This includes ending a $300 weekly unemployment supplement from the federal program. “According to the Texas Workforce Commission, the number of job openings in Texas is almost identical to the number of Texans who are receiving unemployment benefits. That assessment does not include the voluminous jobs that typically are not listed, like construction and restaurant jobs. In fact, there are nearly 60 percent more jobs open (and listed) in Texas today than there was in February 2020,...
