New York Times board member: There needs to be conversation about 'Whiteness'. MSNBC contributor Mara Gay said Tuesday that she was "disturbed" to see "dozens of American flags" flown by Donald Trump supporters during a weekend trip to Long Island, New York. The left-wing editorial board member for The New York Times was also distressed by what she called expletives on the trucks against President Biden, describing the flag-flying Trump supporters as sending a clear message: "This is my country … not your country. I own this."

Rep. Brad Schneider (D-IL) has been sending different messages to constituents and correspondents based on whether they support Palestinians or Israelis in the Middle East conflict, Breitbart News has learned.

The question of how to counteract cancel culture goes far deeper than the question of legal or illegal speech.While some Republicans build their campaigns around cancel culture in the form of a broad bumper sticker slogan or rebuke the party for seeking leaders dissimilar to neoconservatives like Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney, the issue of standards—and what those standards ought to be—should be at the heart of the cancel culture discussion on the right. It’s time for conservatives to make morals a focal point and not overgeneralize by invoking free speech as an end-all, be-all. Cancel culture, which Federalist writer Tristan...

So we have majority support in both houses and we just need to vote on it," Brisport said while appearing on...

U.S. job openings rose in April to a fresh record high, along with the number of people who voluntarily left their jobs, underscoring fervent labor demand and turnover as businesses emerge from pandemic-related restrictions and the economy strengthens. The number of available positions climbed to 9.3 million during the month, the highest on data back to 2000, from an upwardly revised 8.3 million in March, the Labor Department’s Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey, or JOLTS, showed Tuesday. The increase in vacancies was broad. The number of people who voluntarily left their jobs increased to 4 million in April, while...

What happened in Dijon is a trial run, Pierre believes. If it is successful, the enemies of the...

When one evil empire falls, another will inevitably rise to fill its place. I have worked in the American conservative movement for decades, and for part of that time I had the immense privilege to work for---and to know---Ronald Reagan. I had a front row seat to Reagan’s historic efforts to win the Cold War, and we remember well the day the Evil Empire that was the Soviet Union collapsed thanks to Reagan and like-minded world leader like Pop John Paul II and British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. Reagan won the Cold War through action, the power of the pulpit,...

At least 16.9 million of the masks were distributed for use in hospitals and pharmacies in 2020. They are rated FFP2, contain ‘biomass graphene’, and were manufactured by a Chinese company At least 60.5 million face masks rated as FFP2 and distributed to health workers should no longer be worn to protect against Covid, as inhaling their particles could be toxic for the lungs, health authority Santé publique France (SPF) has said.

But asking the questions is exactly what we must do. Last week, a trove of Dr. Anthony Fauci’s emails were released to the public. In a Feb. 5, 2020, email to a Team Obama health official, the ­virus guru wrote that masks were for infected people, and that “the typical mask you buy in a drug store is not really effective in keeping out the virus, which is...

On this date in 1953, Istvan Sandor was hanged in Communist Hungary. Sandor was a printer noted as a mentor to younger Catholics — including the orphanage that shared his print-shop’s building. When his Salesian order was suppressed in 1950, Sandor had to continue this work underground, practically inviting martyrdom. At one point his superiors in the order urged him to flee Hungary; Sandor stubbornly stuck around under an alias. This shadow existence was bound to be a fleeting one. The Hungarian secret police kept close tabs on him, and when it found that he was in contact with a...

The Quebec government is asking school boards, daycares and health networks to stop using a type of mask that Health Canada warned can be toxic to the lungs.

According to a statement provided to CTV News, the province distributed 30.6 million SNN200642 masks to networks under the ministry of family, education and higher education.
