White House now working on an exit strategy for Dr. Fauci. His exposed emails now show he covered up from the beginning that the virus was man made in labs he helped fund. His book deal is ugly, Cuomo-ish, pandemic profiteering. Even liberal media burying his emails. — MARK SIMONE (@MarkSimoneNY) June 2, 2021

A federal judge tossed charges against a New York man accused in the Capitol riot — the first out of hundreds of cases to fall apart due to lack of evidence.Prosecutors wrote to the Washington, DC, judge on Tuesday asking to drop charges against Christopher Kelly, a New York City resident who was captured in a viral photo near the US Capitol, shirtless and holding an American flag, according to court documents.Kelly was busted in January after the FBI said it obtained information from a paid informant that showed he had taken a photo from inside the Capitol building during...

A mum ‘howled with laughter’ after her elderly parents asked her to buy them more ‘gorgeous pâté’ – only to discover they had eaten a tin of cat food. Angela Holloway has been shopping for her mum Margaret Lincoln and step-dad Donald Lincoln throughout the coronavirus crisis, but usually separates the pet food from the rest of the shopping. That meant the 59-year-old was confused last week when her mum told her they had eaten ‘a really lovely dinner of absolutely gorgeous pâtéand baked bread’. The Sheffield couple, who now live in France, were eating with Angela’s sister Beverly Weston...

or most of last year, the idea that the coronavirus pandemic could have been triggered by a laboratory accident in Wuhan, China, was largely dismissed as a racist conspiracy theory of the alt-right. The Washington Post in early 2020 accused Senator Tom Cotton of "fanning the embers of a conspiracy theory that has been repeatedly debunked by experts." CNN jumped in with "How to debunk coronavirus conspiracy theories and misinformation from friends and family." Most other mainstream outlets, from The New York Times ("fringe theory") to NPR ("Scientists debunk lab accident theory"), were equally dismissive. (Newsweek was an exception, reporting...

Lots of people hate Alex Jones. Granted, he loses his mind live on air often... His style is abrasive and, at times, psychotic. So what? He’s also been right about a lot – often decades before other media figures. For it, he has spent his entire career on the fringes of the fringe “far-right” in the political wilderness Limp, finger-in-the-wind politicians and well-heeled corporate-funded “journalists” could learn something about passion and conviction.... Ill-tempered gadfly; decorum-free monkey wrench; digital pirate ship; choose your metaphor.... Back in the 90s and aughts — when he was just a local nuisance to the Texas...

Google’s head of diversity strategy said in a 2007 blog post that Jews have an "insatiable appetite for war" and an "insensitivity to the suffering [of] others." The comments were part of a longer meditation from Kamau Bobb, now head of diversity strategy at Google, that also slammed Israel’s military actions in Gaza and Lebanon that same year. Bobb was at the time a research associate in technology at Georgia Tech, according to his LinkedIn. The post, titled "If I Were A Jew," described how he believed Jewish people should view the Middle East conflict. "If I were a Jew...

These people are stone-cold Marxists intent on destroying this country. The Marxist BLM leader Bree Newsome wants to eliminate police in the US. A significant number of crazy Democrats want this too. Bree Newsome also wants reparations and land reapportionment from wealthy white people.

John Hinckley Jr., the gunman who attempted to assassinate President Ronald Reagan in a bid to win actress Jodie Foster’s heart, has traded his six-shooter for a six-string — racking up thousands of views on YouTube with his guitar renditions of sentimental love songs. Hinckley, now 66, won a lengthy court battle last year, freeing him to publicly display his music, writings and other art, and potentially make a living in the recording industry. Since then, Hinckley has published a half-dozen videos to a YouTube channel bearing his real name, starting with a performance of an original composition titled “Majesty...

2020 to many of us seemed a year of impossibility. It was infinitely stranger than we all could have believed. But 2021 may be beyond 2020. It seems the very fabric of Mathematics and Economics is broken. And There Seems To Be No Sign Of Intelligent Life Anywhere. Emperor Zurg is taking over.

A hiker died after falling about 500 feet from a mountain ridge in California's Sequoia National Park on Memorial Day and a woman who tried to pull him to safety was injured after falling about 30 feet, park officials said Tuesday. The 56-year-old man lost his balance and one of his hiking companions, a 45-year-old woman, grabbed him and both fell off the summit ridge of Mount Russell, but the woman was able to stop her fall on a ledge 30 feet below and survived, the National Park Service said in a news release. A third member of the hiking...

Also the emails reveal that Anthony Fauci was very well aware the outbreak came from...

If warmer weather is inspiring you to visit the sun and surf along the Santa Cruz Boardwalk, you may want to consider a short side trip just north of town. Tucked behind a public park in the small town of Felton, is a bridge so unique it is recognized as both a state and national historic place. At one time, it was also the only way in or out of town. Fortunately, a paved road makes the trip to explore this bridge much easier. Learn more about the Felton Bridge in the video above.

President Joe Biden on Wednesday declared June a "national month of action" to mobilize even more Americans to get vaccinated by July Fourth, in order to enjoy what he called "a summer of freedom."

Using bromine, chlorine, and iodine anions, researchers found a new way to conduct hydrogen ions through a crystal structure at high speed even at temperatures as low as 200?. Credit: Mindy Takamiya/Kyoto University iCeMS ==================================================================== Researchers at Kyoto University's Institute for Cell-Material Sciences (iCeMS) have developed a new approach to speed up hydrogen atoms moving through a crystal lattice structure at lower temperatures. They reported their findings in the journal Science Advances. "Improving hydrogen transport in solids could lead to more sustainable sources of energy," says Hiroshi Kageyama of iCeMS who led the study. Negatively charged hydrogen 'anions' can move...

Colleges and universities used to proclaim that their mission was to give students a broad education that would expand their intellectual vistas—one that would open their minds. Most still say that, but the sad truth is that what passes for higher education these days often does the opposite. Many professors and some whole academic fields instill in students the habits of mind that betoken fundamentalism rather than free inquiry. They want students to conform to their views and rebuke them for disagreeing or even asking the wrong questions. The growing problem of fundamentalist thinking is the focus of Minds Wide...

Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., shared two words in response to news of unearthed emails from Dr. Anthony Fauci. Thousands of emails obtained by Buzzfeed News and hundreds more reviewed by The Washington Post through Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests show Fauci's responses to both critiques and high praise as he worked to communicate the dangers of COVID-19 to the U.S. as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. "Told you," Paul wrote in a Tuesday tweet with the hashtag #firefauci. He added in another tweet: "Can’t wait to see the media try to spin the Fauci...
