Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) took a dim view of President Biden’s meeting with British Prime Minister Boris Johnson ahead of this year’s G7 Summit, telling Fox News Thursday that it produced nothing but “fluff and happy talk.” Earlier in the day, the two world leaders unveiled an updated version of the 1941 Atlantic Charter inked by Franklin D. Roosevelt and Winston Churchill during World War II. While the original version committed the US and the UK to be leaders of the post-war world, the updated document identified urgent 21st century issues including, in Biden’s words “cybersecurity,” “emerging technologies,” “global health,”...

Palestinian refugees may yield weapons Jerusalem Post Staff. JPost, Oct 17, 2005.Lebanon has long viewed the armed Palestinians with suspicion, largely due to the guerrillas' role in the 1975-90 civil war. https://www.jpost.com/middle-east/palestinian-refugees-may-yield-weaponsFatah - Ynetnews, Feb 26, 2009. In Lebanon, Fatah and Arafat soon became pivotal players in the Civil War which enveloped the country in 1975. Pressured by the PFLP, the DFLP and the Palestine Liberation Front (PLF), Fatah eventually aligned itself with the Left's Lebanese National Movement, but lost its Syrian ally – President Hafez Assad, who feared loosing control over Lebanon – in the process. Assad eventually sent...

Time is precious, U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez warned Wednesday, reminding fellow Democrats that the majorities they enjoy in the House and Senate might not last. In a series of Twitter messages, the lawmaker from New York suggested that an untimely death among Democrats could cost the party its slim Senate advantage even sooner than the 2022 midterm elections. “During the Obama admin,” she wrote, “folks thought we’d have a 60 Dem majority for a while. It lasted 4 months.” The reference was to the death of U.S. Sen. Ted Kennedy, D-Mass., in August 2009, the Washington Examiner noted. The stalwart...

Q is the result of the sacrifices and commitment of countless patriots to win back our captured country from the Deep State and achieve the transformation President Trump promised in this campaign video. President Trump has said the awakening of the public is key to this transformation.Q describes this awakening as follows: "The Great Awakening ('Freedom of Thought’), was designed and created not only as a backchannel to the public (away from the longstanding 'mind’ control of the corrupt & heavily biased media) to endure future events through transparency and regeneration of individual thought (breaking the chains of ‘group-think’), but,...

A power plant fire in the US territory of Puerto Rico has left thousands of households without electricity. Pictures on social media show plumes of smoke rising from the flames at a sub-station in the capital, San Juan. The fire broke out shortly after the firm reported a cyber-attack, which has not yet been linked to fire. The Caribbean island has struggled with rolling blackouts ever since Hurricane Maria largely destroyed its electrical grid in 2017. Some Puerto Ricans were left without electricity for nearly a year after the storm. A private company - Luma Energy - took over operation...

Today marks 15 months since the institution of the infamous “Flatten the Curve,” AKA The Deep State’s Plot to Drive Us Crazy, Make Us Stupid, and Take Over the World (in order to make the world safe for China and/or the Deep State and/or New World Order crew to take it over). As readers of this series are aware from my last post, I do not believe that the Deep State is done with us despite the increased numbers of maskless faces we have seen these last few weeks. I think the opening of the country, removal of mask mandates,...

With millions of people inexplicably still listening to Dr. Anthony Fauci despite all measures of credibility lost, his latest pitch for vaccines comes in the form of fearmongering on behalf of the “Delta Variant” of Covid-19. Formerly known as the Indian Covid Variant before the name was changed over unhinged cries of racism, the Delta Variant appears to be more easily spread than the “Alpha Variant” that still accounts for the bulk of cases in the United States.Fauci and his cronies are attempting to scare more people into taking the Covid vaccines. There’s a problem with their logic. In the...

A British man who rejected the standard of care to treat his brain cancer has lived with the typically fatal glioblastoma tumor growing very slowly after adopting a ketogenic diet, providing a case study that researchers say reflects the benefits of using the body's own metabolism to fight this particularly aggressive cancer instead of chemo and radiation therapy. Published recently in the journal Frontiers in Nutrition, the report is the first evaluation of the use of ketogenic metabolic therapy (KMT) without chemo or radiation interventions, on a patient diagnosed with IDH1-mutant glioblastoma (GBM). Ketogenic therapy is a non-toxic nutritional approach,...

oshiba's research team has broken a new record for optical fiber-based quantum communications, thanks to a new technology called dual band stabilization. Researchers from Toshiba have successfully sent quantum information over 600-kilometer-long optical fibers, creating a new distance record and paving the way for large-scale quantum networks that could be used to exchange information securely between cities and even countries. Working from the company's R&D lab in Cambridge in the UK, the scientists demonstrated that they could transmit quantum bits (or qubits) over hundreds of kilometers of optical fiber without scrambling ....

Alejandra Gomez worked tirelessly to get Democrats, including Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, elected in 2018. But now she feels betrayed. The 39-year-old co-executive director of the community organizing group LUCHA went door to door in the sweltering Arizona heat in 2018, turning out the Democratic voters that helped get Sinema elected to the Senate. The work was arduous and the hours long, but Gomez and others believed deeply in the need to defeat Republican Martha McSally, who had aligned herself with then-President Donald Trump. Her work paid off -- Sinema won by nearly 3 percentage points. But it is what happened...

It was several years ago and I was working on a documentary that would eventually be called, "There But For The Grace of God...", trying to understand the epidemic of homelessness that had gripped Seattle and so many other places. Eric's Heroes: The redemption of Ginny Burton I was wandering the streets of Seattle with my cameraman Doug, going to the places where broken people sought refuge. I walked into a men's shelter called Lazarus Day Center, run by Catholic Community Services. I don't know what I was looking for. I just wanted to talk to somebody and learn. I...

On this date in 1697, the Paisley, Renfrewshire Gallow Green played stage for the strangling and burning of six “witches.” They’re known as the Paisley witches, the Renfrewshire witches, or the Bargarran witches, and are sometimes acclaimed the last mass-executed witches in western Europe. In a setup bearing a disturbing similarity to the Salem witch trials,* an 11-year-old brat named Christian Shaw, the daughter of a local laird, got a tongue-lashing from the family servant and then turned around and accused her a sorceress. The psychological mechanisms at play make interesting speculation in such cases. Was she merely a spiteful...

Heard a fawn crying in our woods yesterday and went to investigate. About 150 yds from our house I saw a tiny fawn - couldn't have been more than a few weeks old - with a small fisher on its back, trying to bite the fawn's neck. Fired a shot over the fisher and it took off, along with another, much larger, fisher I hadn't seen. Appears as though mother fisher was teaching the youngster how to hunt. Fawn was exhausted, but recovered in a few minutes and took off. Never thought a fisher would attack a fawn, but perhaps...

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) is arguing that the dismissal of a theory that former President Trump and his allies pushed suggesting the coronavirus originated in a lab in Wuhan, China, "played a prominent role" in his defeat in the 2020 presidential election. "There is no doubt in my mind the combination of prominent scientists coming out strongly against the lab leak theory, along with officials from the State Department shutting down additional inquiries, ended up being two of the most consequential events in the 2020 election cycle," Graham wrote in an op-ed published on FoxNews.com on Thursday. "Had they given...

Federal authorities have received over 800 reports of heart inflammation in people who received a COVID-19 vaccine, a health official said Thursday. The reports of myocarditis or pericarditis were submitted to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, a passive reporting system run jointly by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Food and Drug Administration, through May 31. The bulk of the reports described heart inflammation appearing after the second of two doses of either the Pfizer of Moderna vaccines, both of which utilize messenger RNA technology. Authorities stress that anybody can submit reports through the reporting...

Evidence in FBI hands shows Biden called Italian region president, lobbied French ambassador, and targeted sovereign wealth funds The world was on fire in February 2014, and Joe Biden was President Obama's point man for many of the crises. Russia had shocked the West by invading the Crimean region of Ukraine. Syria was engulfed in a bloody civil war with ISIS. And Iraq was rocked by a wave of terrorist bombings that killed more than 100 civilians. Hunter Biden, the vice president's son, and his colleagues at Rosemont Seneca Partners and related businesses found it the perfect time to conquer...
