COVID-19 has revolutionized how we think about online college teaching. Until last spring, two perspectives predominated. One argued that massively enrolled online classes presented by impressive teachers or prestigious universities would increase efficiency while preserving quality. The other worried about the quality of online classes, and that the gap between those able to afford in-person classes at elite universities and those who can’t, would widen. We now have a year of experimentation with entirely online classes. What have we learned? My sense is that among faculty, at least, the question has changed from whether online education is a good or...

"Kamala has the answer!" An excited Howard Bashford, the vice president's deputy auxiliary assistant for matters of minor importance today (DAAMMIT) told us Ms. Harris, despite naysayers in the media, actually had come up with a solution to the crisis on our southern border. "First off," he said, "Guatemalan President Alejandro Giammattei was utterly unreasonable when the vice president suggested that he – along with Juan Orlando Hernandez of Honduras and El Salvador's Nayib Bukele – agree that our immigration problems were due to their corruption. "Sure, they'll go along with the idea that they have a minor, criminal-gang problem,...

With all due respect to Kamala Harris and Howard Dean, it is Andrew Yang who holds the crown for the most awkward presidential campaign of the twenty-first century (so far). Or have you forgotten when he declared, “I’m the full service presidential candidate,” and gleefully squirted whipped cream into the mouths of kneeling supporters, until he was pulled away by a mortified aide? Yang is now running for mayor of New York, and he seems to have learned his lesson: asked Sunday what he thought about Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Gaza) likening the U.S. and Israel to Hamas and the Taliban,...

S.1 failed to advance in the Senate, leaving progressives in disarray. For months, activists and politicians have pushed the phony narrative that new “Jim Crow” voting laws are putting democracy in peril, all to build pressure for a sweeping federal takeover of elections. But the euphemistically-named “For the People Act” has failed to win the support of even 50 Senators, prompting progressives to begin teeing up the backup plan: HR4, the Voting Rights Advancement Act. It’s easy to see why S.1 stalled. The bill upends the election systems of all 50 states. Its provisions eliminate voter ID laws, let partisan...

At Christ's Judgment Seat for His redeemed saints, which will take place after the Rapture of His Church; The blood-washed saints of Christ will be examined and proved by Almighty God the Son's RIGHTEOUS PERSON, PERFECTION, and HOLY FIRE (Psalm 12:6; 18:30; 19:8-10; John 1:1-3; John 17:17, 1 Cor. 3:9-16, Heb. 12:28-29, Rev. 1:12-18; 22:12)! ALL that was built upon this FOUNDATION (THE ETERNAL RIGHTEOUS SON of ALMIGHTY GOD) will remain and rewards will be given (Matt. 7:24-25, John 17:17, 1 Cor. 3:9-16, Rev. 22:12)! All that is outworked in the flesh and in error will be TOTALLY CONSUMED by...

According to the establishment media, critical race theory, or CRT, is a distraction. It is a right-wing smear. It is a conservative attempt to quash the dark side of American history. Most of all, according to the establishment media, you must never -- ever -- pay attention to the infusion of CRT into the nation's institutions of power. According to MSNBC's Chuck Todd, controversy over CRT is a "creation ... It keeps people watching or it keeps people clicking." According to CNN's Bakari Sellers, CRT is just "America's history." According to The Washington Post's Jonathan Capehart, those who criticize CRT...

This group of people celebrated Juneteenth by blocking an ambulance that was trying to get to gunshot victims in Oakland, California.

Dear friends, 0ur nation and its republic are officially dead as of 4:00 AM January 7th, and no optimistic appraisals and well wishes can overturn that; and as of this January 20th, a new tyrannical demonic America has been born with only oppressive lawless means for its inhabitants. The godless and lawless Leftist parasites, which have fed on America's freedom to promote lawlessness and godlessness have now taken over the entire body, soul, and mind of our nation and WOE! WOE! WOE! to our national inhabitants (Psalm 11:3)! America now has totally become the dwelling place of dominating demonic powers...

Here's an interesting tale regarding ivermectin and YouTube, and, by extension, most journalists' and news outlets' selective reporting.This article contains a little piece of historic, verifiable fact.Kory was referring to an FDA-approved medicine called Ivermectin. A genuine wonder drug in other realms, Ivermectin has all but eliminated parasitic diseases like river blindness and elephantiasis, helping discoverer Satoshi Omura win the Nobel Prize in 2015.To quote Johnny Carson, "I did not know that." (AT readers learned about it last February, though).The avermectin family of compounds was discovered by Satoshi Ōmura of Kitasato University and William Campbell of Merck. In 1970, Ōmura...

Kamala Harris urged left-wing activists to pile the pressure on Americans who have not been vaccinated following news that Joe Biden's vaccine goal for July 4th is likely to fall short. The goal is to vaccinate 70% of Americans by July 4th.

Warren Buffett announced Wednesday that he’s resigning from his position as trustee at the Gates Foundation and that he’s donating another $4.1 billion worth of Berkshire Hathaway shares to five charitable organizations. In 2006, Buffett, who’s the eighth-richest person in the world with a net worth of about $105 billion, pledged most of his fortune to the Gates Foundation and to four other charitable trusts created by his family. “For years I have been a trustee — an inactive trustee at that — of only one recipient of my funds, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (BMG),” Buffett said in...

First Lady Jill Biden appeared in Nashville, Tennessee, on Tuesday to promote the coronavirus vaccine with country singer Brad Paisley, criticizing residents of the state for failing to get the vaccine. “This state still has mmm, a little bit of a way to go,” she said with a nervous laugh. “Only three in ten Tennesseans are vaccinated.”

WASHINGTON, Saturday, June 22. H.C. SPENCER, our Consul at Paris, has been ordered to close the consulate, and to deposit the papers and records of the office with the American Minister. Mr. SPENCER has been proved to entertain quite too much sympathy for the rebels. Senator WILSON, of Massachusetts, is in Washington, and will remain here until the close of the session. It is understood here that Maj.-Gen. DIX will assume command of the forces on the other side of the river, and that the army will be divided into five brigades, under the immediate command of Generals MCDOWELL, RUNYON,...

The mystery object is called 2014 UN271, and it’s currently 22 AU from the Sun (in which 1 AU is the average distance of Earth to the Sun), which means it has already passed the orbit of Neptune. The International Astronomical Union Minor Planet Center announced the detection on June 19. This object will travel another 11.1 AU before reaching its perihelion point (closest approach to the Sun) in 2031, after which 2014 UN271 will begin its long journey back to the Oort cloud. Measuring somewhere between 62 and 230 miles (100-370 kilometers) in diameter, 2014 UN271 is one of...

The European database of suspected drug reaction reports is EudraVigilance, which also tracks reports of injuries and deaths following the experimental COVID-19 “vaccines.” ====================================================================================== A subscriber from Europe recently emailed us and reminded us that this database maintained at EudraVigilance is only for countries in Europe who are part of the European Union (EU), which comprises 27 countries. The total number of countries in Europe is much higher, almost twice as many, numbering around 50, although there are some differences of opinion as to which countries are technically part of Europe. So as high as these numbers are, they do...

WASHINGTON, Friday, June 21. The Navy Department has completed its comparison of the bids offered for the construction of the new gun-boats. Upon an examination of the bids, it is ascertained that such a disparity exists as to render it impossible to give out the building of the entire number wanted at prices within the limits fixed by the Department. It has, therefore, been determined to fix upon a standard price, and to invite contractors to build them at that sum. It is presumed that all wanted by the Government will be put afloat for the price fixed upon. It...

A New York Times analysis found no identifiable tuna DNA in Subway’s tuna sandwich, the newspaper reported over the weekend, citing tests conducted by a commercial lab. The Times bought 60 inches of Subway tuna sandwiches from three different Subway locations in Los Angeles. A reporter for the newspaper then removed and froze the tuna and sent it to an unidentified commercial food testing lab. The newspaper said it paid roughly $500 for the lab to conduct a PCR test to see if the substance had one of five different tuna species. After a month, the lab said it found...

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) accused the Biden administration Tuesday of practicing “incompetent domestic and foreign policy” that is only benefitting criminals and US adversaries. “All these policies are blowing up in the Biden-Harris administration’s face,” Graham told Fox News’ “Hannity”. “Six months since they’ve been in charge — let’s name the winners in the past six months. “Drug cartels in Mexico, human traffickers and coyotes in Mexico, the Taliban in Afghanistan, the Iranian ayatollah, Russia, [Russian President Vladimir] Putin, and China have all been the biggest winners of incompetent domestic and foreign policy,” the senator added
