Meghan Markle became physically closer to her family members when she and Prince Harry moved to California last year, but that doesn't mean there's room for reconciliation – so says a family source. In 2020, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex stunned fans and their own families with their decision to step back as senior working members of the British royal family and move to North America to pursue independent work. It's been almost a year since the couple settled down at a property in Montecito, Calif., located in Santa Barbara County. Although Markle once again lives on the same...

“I’m looking at California’s 4th District to run against Tom McClintock (R). I split my time between Truckee, Calif., and Bell Canyon and the Republicans have basically had a strong arm there in the 4th District.” McClintock won reelection last year with 56 percent of the vote against Democrat challenger Brynne Kennedy. “It’s going to take someone with, I think, name recognition and deep pockets to be able to run against McClintock, and so I’m considering it. I’m basically gathering information right now, speaking to different consultants, speaking to the community,” Milano said. “I would love to maybe consider flipping...

CHINA and India continue to build up their military forces along their disputed border in the Himalayas, as fears grow of an imminent war between the Asian superpowers. Last June saw the first deadly outbreak of fighting between the two sides since 1975 in the Galwan Valley. Soldiers confronted each other with weapons, including clubs and sticks, leading to the death of at least 20 Indians and four Chinese. The root cause of the conflict lies in an ill-defined, 3,440km (2,100-mile)-long border that both countries dispute, known as the Line of Actual Control Tensions have continued to rise between the...

The deputy saw a hat on a piece of farming equipment and then found the man stuck inside the shaft of a vineyard fan. Firefighters rescued him. “The man indicated he liked to take pictures of the engines of old farm equipment,” the statement said. “After a thorough investigation, which revealed the farm equipment wasn’t antique and the man had far more methamphetamine than camera equipment, the motivation to climb into the fan shaft remains a total mystery.” Photos provided by the Sonoma County Sheriff’s Office shows a man who was found Tuesday, June 8, 2021 at a vineyard in...

[...] The virus that caused the pandemic is known officially as SARS-CoV-2, but can be called SARS2 for short. As many people know, there are two main theories about its origin. One is that it jumped naturally from wildlife to people. The other is that the virus was under study in a lab, from which it escaped. It matters a great deal which is the case if we hope to prevent a second such occurrence. I’ll describe the two theories, explain why each is plausible, and then ask which provides the better explanation of the available facts. It’s important to...

The Dwight-Englewood School in New Jersey is a private prep school where high school tuitions costs just over $50,000 per year. Tuesday an English teacher at Dwight-Englewood named Dana Stangel-Plowe announced she was resigning her position because of the school’s embrace of Critical Race Theory, an ideology she believes is harming students at the school. A group called the Foundation Against Intolerance and Racism (FAIR) published Stangel-Plowe’s resignation letter, which reads in part. I believe that D-E is failing our students. Over the past few years, the school has embraced an ideology that is damaging to our students’ intellectual and...

Hunter Biden’s friends appeared to mock “f*ggots” and “d*kes” in emails unearthed by the National Pulse from the president’s son’s hard drive.

Collateral Damage. That’s the new definition for the US Coronavirus deaths. The Gateway Pundit has reported extensively this past year on the effects of hydroxychloroquine in treating the COVID-19 virus. We knew and reported that Dr. Tony Fauci and the medical elites conspired to ban the use of this very successful drug. We reported earlier on how Dr. Fauci used bogus studies to disqualify HCQ in treating coronavirus. We also reported that there is proof that Dr. Fauci and top US medical experts all conspired using obviously false information to disqualify hydroxychloroquine and MILLIONS DIED as a result of their...

BURBANK, CA—Nickelodeon announced today that for Pride Month, Blue's Clues and You will be hosted by Jared Fogle, who is famous for being the Subway spokesperson and maybe some other stuff as well. Fogle will teach kids that "love is love" and that you're "born this way" and "can't control who you love." "Hey kids!" he says in a teaser for the new episodes. "How is everyone doing out there, specifically the younger males in the audience? Oh, look! We got a letter!" The letter appears to be a summons from the FBI for him to return to federal prison....

The Atlantic magazine published a profile piece on Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg Tuesday and plotted his path to the presidency that would involve him replacing incumbent President Joe Biden. Writer Edward-Isaac Dovere wrote the glowing report about Buttigieg’s attempts to gather support for a massive “infrastructure” spending bill that redefines traditional infrastructure to include elder care and electric vehicles.

In the current study, the researchers followed 228 convalescence plasma donors between April and February 2021. They were assessed for levels of neutralizing antibodies and the total and immunoglobulin G (IgG)-specific S protein antibodies using a lab-developed fluorescent reduction neutralization assay (FRNA) and the VITROS anti-SARS-CoV-2 Total. The team analyzed the data to determine the link between antibody levels and clinical characteristics, presenting a comprehensive view of SARS-CoV-2 antibody changes over 11 months after being infected with SARS-CoV-2. The purpose of the study was to better understand COVID-19 responses in individuals who obtained the virus in the community. Before August...

A new study has found that the use of weight-adjusted Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and Azithromycin (AZM) improved the survival of ventilated COVID-19 patients by nearly 200 percent. The observational study, which has not yet been peer-reviewed, was based on a re-analysis of 255 patients on invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) during the first two months of the pandemic in the United States. The researchers found that, when the HCQ/AZM combination was given at lower dosages to treat ventilated COVID-19 patients, the risk of death was over three times higher. “We found that when the cumulative doses of two drugs, HCQ and AZM,...

In a prior video, WelcomeTheEagle88 cited CDC policy stating they would not update adverse events reports received. Therefore, those reports in VAERS (e.g., complex ER visit with stroke, heart attack etc.) would not be updated if the patient died after being transferred to ICU or other destination. This is one more barrier to understanding the actual rates of death that would otherwise be reported by the CDC.In that prior video, WelcomeTheEagle88 provided his quick impression of the most recent VAERS update (6/4/2021). He was very concerned many more deaths (over 750) had just been added to records from January and...

An Idaho man accused of murder in the deaths of his late wife and two of his new love interest's children pleaded not guilty to the charges against him Wednesday morning. Chad Daybell was indicted in May on charges of first-degree murder, conspiracy to commit first-degree murder, grand theft by deception, grand theft, and insurance fraud.

Is Biogen's Alzheimer's drug a historic achievement or red herring? There are plenty of opinions on both sides. Nonetheless, it received FDA approval despite an unanimous downvote from its own expert panel. What is going on here? No one knows, but to me, it just doesn't smell right. The subject of an email from Rick Berke, the executive editor of STAT, reads: 'A landmark day in Alzheimer's disease." Berke then linked to an article by Adam Feuerstein and Damian Garde, which, if it's less enthusiastic, it's not by much: "FDA grants historic approval to Alzheimer’s drug designed to slow cognitive...
