School board members and parents in the Massapequa School District held a rally on Tuesday afternoon denouncing what they called threats New York State officials made to the district regarding the district's decision to be mask-optional on Monday as detailed in a letter to the Centers for Disease Control from the New York State Health Commissioner. The group shouted "Bully" as they talked about New York Governor Andrew Cuomo during the rally at John J. Burns Park in Massapequa Park. [snip] Jeanine Caramore, Vice President of the School Board, said state officials threatened the district by saying the state would...

The duplicitous and anti-American actions of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is like the worst song you’ve ever heard looping on your MP3 player incessantly. He is the ultimate RINO — Republican In Name Only — and has done everything he can to subvert the MAGA movement since before Donald Trump was first inaugurated. His latest ploy involves his Super PAC. Okay, so technically it’s not HIS Super PAC since such things would be illegal but he controls where the funds go, which candidates to support, and which ones to attack. He has pointed his guns at pretty much anyone...

President Joe Biden and his European Union counterparts will commit to ending outstanding trade battles next week at an EU-US summit in Brussels on June 15, as globalists eager to get back to ‘business as usual’ seek to unravel tariffs related to a steel and aluminum conflict which came to a head under the Trump administration – contributing to over $18 billion in US and EU exports subject to steep levies. According to Bloomberg, which has seen a draft of the conclusions, the allies will agree to resolve disagreements – including a nearly two-decade old aircraft dispute which involves illegal...

CHARLOTTE, NC – U. S. Representative Ted Budd is riding high after a key endorsement from former President Donald Trump. “I’m giving him my complete and total endorsement,” said Trump during a speech in Greenville, NC. “It’s absolute the honor of a lifetime,” said Budd. Budd says he learned of the endorsement 15 minutes before Donald Trump took the stage at the North Carolina GOP Convention this past weekend. “Within 90 seconds the online donations from around the country were coming in with lots of very kind messages saying God, bless you,” explained Budd. Budd says having Trump in his...

Prince Harry has threatened the BBC with legal action after it reported that he and Meghan Markle did not ask the Queen for permission to name their daughter Lilibet - as an extraordinary three-way briefing war broke out between the Sussexes, the Palace and the corporation. Senior Buckingham Palace sources told BBC royal correspondent Jonny Dymond this morning that the Queen was 'never asked' her opinion on the couple's decision to name their new baby after her childhood nickname. However, Harry hit back within 90 minutes of the BBC's report being published through a statement from his and Meghan's close...

The results of Tuesday's 2021 Democratic primary make it completely clear that the extremist abortion views of the last four years will continue into this year’s elections. All three winners of this primary hold radical positions on abortion, including allowing abortion through all nine months of pregnancy and turning a blind eye to infanticide if a baby survives an abortion. None of the three winners condemned Gov. Northam’s comment in 2019 that indicated how a baby who survived an abortion could be killed after birth. Former Governor Terry McAuliffe, the winner of Tuesday’s primary for Governor, is on record as...

It appears that the election of Los Angeles County District Attorney, George Gascón, on November 3, 2020, was engulfed in substantial, and perhaps irrefutable, fraud. To determine this, I applied standard statistical fraud identification tools to the election data. In this race, Gascón, previously district attorney of San Francisco County, challenged Jackie Lacey, the incumbent. Lacey, who held the office for the prior eight years (2012 to 2020), and is considered to have conducted her duties in a “tough-on-crime” manner. I begin with the publicly available final election report, as posted on the web by the Los Angeles County Registrar...

So again, back to your question. Is it from here, or is it from out there? We don’t really know. In fact, there’s lots of other options on the table. It could be from--as I’ve said before, it could be from outer space, inner space, or the space in between. As we begin to learn what quantum physics is and we begin to understand our place here on this little planet, we begin to realize that there’s a lot of other options. We judge the universe in five fundamental senses, the ways that we perceive the universe, and that’s touch,...

At their recent "United Facts of America Festival," PolitiFact interviewed Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va. Their executive director Aaron Sharockman began with some light humor, telling Warner he was one of the more accurate members of Congress. Sharockman complimented Warner for having zero "Pants on Fire" rated claims. Warner joked: "That feels like it should be a low bar. Unfortunately, I don't think it is." It's not exactly a tough bar. In fact, my review of all PolitiFact pages for current U.S. Senate Democrats finds that almost (SET ITAL)every(END ITAL) Democratic senator has zero "Pants on Fire" ratings. Four Democratic senators...

This morning we got news that there’s a record-high level of job openings in the U.S. right now. This is probably no surprise to many people, as we’ve been inundated with stories about the difficulty that firms are experiencing in terms of hiring. This morning’s National Federation of Independent Business survey showed the same thing, with a record high 48% of companies saying they have unfilled openings. But it’s not just that hiring is strained. Workers are also quitting at increasing rates, at least according to government data. And it’s especially acute in the food industry. Per this morning’s JOLTS...

President Trump on Tuesday cheered Nigeria’s decision to ban Twitter from the country and called on other countries to follow suit. The Nigerian government last Friday announced it is suspending Twitter operations in the country indefinitely. Twitter suspended Nigeria’s president Muhammadu Buhari last Thursday for “abusive behavior.” Buhari tweeted a warning to ‘insurrectionists’ on Thursday so Twitter stepped in and suspended his account. Trump Cheers Nigeria’s Twitter Ban, Calls On Other Countries to Follow Suit President Trump on Tuesday cheered Nigeria’s decision to ban Twitter from the country and called on other countries to follow suit. The Nigerian government last...

Filmmaker Ami Horowitz is back with another Ami on the Loose short video. This time he takes to the streets of New York City to ask people who have received the COVID-19 vaccine why they continue to wear a mask outdoors. Check out their eyebrow-raising responses

New presidents have only so long to get big legislative initiatives done. It's already June, and the clock is ticking for President Joe Biden. Big bills take a long time. Congress will spend much of the summer on recess. They'll be at work in the fall, but by the end of the year, Democratic and Republican lawmakers will be obsessed with winning reelection in 2022. But Biden has an even bigger problem than the calendar. In the last election, Democrats failed to win a majority in the Senate, and the body is now tied 50-50. If Republicans are united in...

Editor's note: This is the third part in Frontpage Mag's new series on Racist Mayors. (See previous parts below this article). Stay tuned for more installments. District of Columbia Mayor Muriel Bowser may have more self-control than other Democrat big-city mayors, yet she still manages to push the same racist Black Lives Matter propaganda that gives aid and comfort to rioters and insurrectionists who hate America. Bowser, architect of some of the strictest pandemic lockdown protocols in the nation –she banned dancing at D.C. weddings— is generally shrewd enough to avoid in-your-face, overtly racist gaffes like Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s...

If they made a movie about the Biden presidency, based on the past 4 1/2 months, it might be called “The Creature from the D.C. Swamp.” It opens with a beautiful young woman, tanned and fit, named the Trump Economy, lounging on a boat. Suddenly, the creature emerges from the stygian depths, grabs her, and carries her down to a watery grave. The swamp creature is the 46th president of the United States. While he wasn’t born in the murky waters surrounding the nation’s capital, he has almost no experience with anything that exists beyond its boundaries. To the question,...

“As for [Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego], God gave them knowledge and intelligence in every branch of literature and wisdom; Daniel even understood all kinds of visions and dreams” (Daniel 1:17). Godly wisdom guards against the influences of a godless society. From the beginning of human history Satan has tried to confuse and confound God’s purposes by corrupting man’s thinking. In the Garden of Eden he succeeded by calling God’s character into question and convincing Eve that her disobedience would have no consequences. To this day he continues to deceive entire civilizations by blinding “the minds of the unbelieving, that...

In Genesis 15, God made a glorious agreement with Abraham. He instructed the patriarch to take a female heifer, a female goat and a ram and cut them all in two. Then Abraham was to take a turtledove and a pigeon and lay them on the ground, head-to-head. Abraham did as he was instructed, and as these creatures lay bleeding, vultures began to descend on the carcasses. What did Abraham do when the vultures came? Scripture says he chased them away. This was a sacred sacrifice that Abraham would not allow to be defiled or rendered unfit for his Holy...

Honestly Mara, this says much more about you than it does me: NYT, MSNBC’s Mara Gay: ‘Disturbing’ to see ‘dozens of American flags’ on trucks on Long IslandOk, so she’s on the editorial board of the New York Times, and this is America after all - she’s allowed her ignorant, incorrect opinions just like the next guy (unless you support President Trump).It turns out Mara is offended by Trump supporters, who she believes are all knuckle-dragging, flag waving white supremacists. “I was on Long Island this weekend visiting a really dear friend, and I was really disturbed. I saw, you...

Whom does Facebook trust to censor? A Ph.D. graduate from France. Really. The Frenchman, Emmanuel Vincent, started a group he calls "Climate Feedback." It does "a new kind of fact-checking." It sure is new. And wrong. I released a video in which some climate scientists argue that climate change is not a "crisis." They believe people can adjust to changing temperatures. Twenty-five million people watched the video. But now Facebook will not show it to you because Emmanuel Vincent suddenly called it "partially false." Vincent would not agree to an interview. Nor would most of his "reviewers." Only one, Patrick...

This time, it mixes it up with a little dose of BLM activism to help your child become woke. When last we caught up with it, Nickelodeon had reached out to the five- to eight-year-old set, the ones who watch Blue’s Clues & You, with a colorful video introducing them to homosexuality, so-called transgenderism, pansexualism, and other alternative sexual lifestyles, all to a bouncy tune sung by a tuneless cartoon drag queen. Since it’s still “Pride month,” Nickelodeon is back again, this time with the tuneless drag queen explaining all the symbolic meaning behind some of the colors in the...
