Led by Second Amendment advocate Rep. Richard Hudson, 141 Republicans (and likely more to come) are targeting a revived rule from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives backed by the Justice Department to turn AR-style pistols into expensive, hard to get guns. In a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland and acting ATF Director Marvin Richardson, Hudson wrote, ..“This proposed guidance is alarming and jeopardizes the rights of law-abiding gun owners and disabled combat veterans across the country.”....He was joined by 140 other Republicans, including the No. 2 and No. 3 GOP leaders, Reps. Steve Scalise and Elise...

WASHINGTON, D.C.—In a televised address this week, President Biden voiced support for the LGBTQ community and promised to honor them with a commitment to not only sniff women's hair, but also men's hair. "Look-- I've been sniffing the hair of women and girls for many decades," said Biden. "It's time for me to recognize the accomplishments of the LGBT folks. I'm maybe gonna get in trouble for this, but if you're a man, I just may sniff your hair. That's because I'm not homophobic. I ain't afraid to sniff a dude! Come on, man!" Biden was then quickly led off...

Just call him the Dippin’ Dots bandit. According to the Tyler PD, the Polo shirt wearing man pictured here dropped through the ceiling above the Dippin’ Dots Ice Cream inside Broadway Square, 4601 S. Broadway Ave., while the store was closed and grabbed a bag of the frozen treats. And he did it “all while licking on a sucker!” a post on the department’s Facebook page says. “Then he shimmied back through the hole and left into the night,” says the PD. His illegal quest for Dippin’ Dots deliciousness was captured on a security camera. Those who recognize the man...

President Joe Biden dismissed the possibility of an early entry for Ukraine into NATO on Monday, claiming the nation has to “clean up corruption” for the military alliance to trust it. Biden himself, and his son Hunter, have been the focus of years of investigation into the younger Biden’s affiliations with Ukrainian oligarchs, particularly his hiring by the Ukrainian energy firm Burisma that leaked emails appeared to indicate was directly the result of those oligarchs seeking influence with then-Vice President Biden.

Firstly, in keeping with the 'Skyrim in space' descriptor, Howard confirmed that Starfield will be playable in both first- and third-person. This is the case in both Bethesda's Elder Scrolls and Fallout games. Bethesda game worlds have always included lively NPCs, to the point where leaving them out at launch for Fallout 76 was massively controversial. So it's good to hear that you're not the only person in Starfield. But beyond just potentially other humans, you might encounter alien species as well. Howard didn't describe any of the alien races players might encounter but says "There is a way we...

Washington (CNN)The Trump-era Justice Department's decision to secretly seize data of Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee went even beyond the nefarious actions of former President Richard Nixon, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Sunday. The California Democrat also believes former Attorneys General Jeff Sessions and William Barr, as well as former Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, should testify before Congress. "What the administration did, the Justice Department, the leadership of the former President goes even beyond Richard Nixon. Richard Nixon had an enemies list. This is about undermining the rule of law," Pelosi told CNN's Dana Bash Sunday on "State...

================================================================================== Scientists at Columbia University have created the world's smallest single-chip system—complete wireless electronic circuits that can monitor conditions in the body. The chips, called "motes," have a total volume of less than one cubic millimeter, making them smaller than microscopic dust mites. No, these microchips can't be used to track you; they can only communicate outside the body with an ultrasound machine. ================================================================================== Your next doctor's appointment could soon become much more informative thanks to new microchips the size of dust mites, only visible beneath a microscope.

What will the military, the Supreme Court, and the people eventually do? How will the military, the Supreme Court, and the masses react to the outcome? How will the military move, how will the Supreme Court rule, and eventually do the masses rise up and take to the streets...if it becomes clear that the presidential election of 2020 was compromised, was stolen, or at the very least had way too many abnormalities and illegalities and thus the wrong person is possibly sitting in the White House? What happens if it becomes clear that President Trump was re-elected and the Progressives...

RALEIGH — U.S. Rep. Ted Budd’s campaign team is highlighting new polling data showing the impact of former President Donald Trump’s endorsement in North Carolina’s 2022 U.S. Senate race. “The Ted Budd for US Senate campaign today released survey results that reveal Ted Budd sees a 45-point net positive swing and surges to a 19-point lead when likely Republican primary voters learn that President Donald Trump has endorsed Ted Budd for US Senate,” according to a news release from the Budd campaign. snip “When we asked Republican primary voters for whom would they vote if they knew ‘President Donald Trump...

President Biden broke his own standard of the political protocol by attacking his Republican rivals during an overseas summit — but escaped scrutiny from the same media that ripped former President Donald Trump for similar moves. The commander-in-chief claimed the Republican party was “fractured” and Trump only had “phony populism” as he spoke at a press conference after a NATO summit in Brussels on Monday. Like his “clown show” from yesterday wasn’t enough he embarrassed our country this morning again! Quoting Irish poet W. B. Yeats at the start of his first EU-U.S. summit as president, Biden also said the...

Is the pandemic over? It all depends. Here’s how Gov. Phil Murphy put things today. “This is becoming a pandemic of un-vaccinated individuals.” Of the 260 New Jerseyans who contracted COVID over the last few days, the governor said the overwhelming majority of them probably have not been vaccinated. Supporting that statement, Murphy said studies show that the vaccination success rate is above 99 percent. So, it’s logical to assume those coming down with the virus these days have not gotten their shots. As of today, the state has vaccinated more than 4.5 million individuals. Murphy announced a goal of...

On Monday’s broadcast of ABC’s “Good Morning America,” ABC News Senior National Correspondent Terry Moran reported that a former official in the State Department told ABC that the U.S. government knew of financial accounts tied to China’s military that were funding the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

David Horowitz was at one time a knowledgeable 1960s Jewish revolutionary Marxist. After observing from the inside the hypocrisy of Leftist ideology, he is now a political conservative. He brings to bear on our situation today by describing with frankness the stunning “logic” of Marxism: “The issue is never the issue. The issue is always the revolution.”[1] Horowitz believes that progressive, socialist revolutionaries in America are now far closer to achieving their goals than the ’60s radicals ever were,[2] a thesis he expands in his book Dark Agenda: The War to Destroy Christian America (2019). We do well to give...

NEW YORK (AP) — A new analysis of blood samples from 24,000 Americans taken early last year is the latest and largest study to suggest that the new coronavirus popped up in the U.S. in December 2019 — weeks before cases were first recognized by health officials. The analysis is not definitive, and some experts remain skeptical, but federal health officials are increasingly accepting a timeline in which small numbers of COVID-19 infections may have occurred in the U.S. before the world ever became aware of a dangerous new virus erupting in China...... The NIH researchers have not followed up...
