An analysis has revealed that more than three-fifths of all U.S. counties are so-called “Second Amendment sanctuaries” after a number of states this year passed legislation declaring them as such. The website, Sanctuary Counties, found on June 20 that there are now 1,930 counties that are “protected by Second Amendment Sanctuary legislation at either the state or county level,” representing 61 percent of all counties. It noted that a number of states have passed “Constitutional Carry” laws, while specifically, approximately 1,137 counties “have taken it upon themselves to pass Second Amendment Sanctuary legislation and likely hundreds of cities, townships, boroughs,...

Scientists said on Thursday (June 24) they had discovered a new kind of early human after studying pieces of fossilised bone dug up at a site used by a cement plant in central Israel. The fragments of a skull and a lower jaw with teeth were about 130,000 years old and could force a rethinkof parts of the human family tree, the researchers from Tel Aviv University and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem said. Nesher Ramla Homo - named after the place southeast of Tel Aviv where it was found - may have lived alongside our species, Homo sapiens, for...

The Trump Organization is expected to be hit with criminal charges as soon as next week by Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance’s office in a case that Trump attorneys say is tied to tax-related conduct, multiple people familiar with the matter tell NBC News. “It looks like they are going to come down with charges against the company, and that is completely outrageous,” Ron Fischetti, an attorney for the Trumps, said after the development was first reported by The New York Times. "I’ve been practicing for over 50 years, and I’ve never seen a case like this." Danny Frost, a...

We’re such a civilized nation. All the talk of hanging is just that… TALK. Real political culprits go free and write books between their next political crimes. And when the law agency goes after the 76 year old man, Roger Stone, they break his door down in the night and there is a fleet of FBI scuba divers at the back of his house in case he tries to swim for it. Bubba, somebody or other, from NASCAR reports a possible hate crime and 12 FBI agents show up. So real political crime is rampant, obvious and ignored by the...

Brian Mast (R-Fla.), Beth Van Duyne (R-Texas), and Dr. Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R-Iowa) were among the House Republicans who refused to wear a mask appealing to the Ethics committee to waive the fines, citing that they were complying with the Centers for Disease Control’s (CDC) guidance that said people can go without a mask if they are fully vaccinated.

President Joe Biden on Thursday blamed vaccine hesitancy among black Americans on the past experimentation by the U.S. government on the Tuskegee Airman, conflating the famed World War II pilots with the Tuskegee Syphilis Study. “The reason why it’s been harder to get African Americans, initially, to get vaccinated because they are used to being experimented on — the Tuskegee Airmen and others,” Biden said. While originating in Tuskegee, Alabama, the Tuskegee Airman are famous for being the first group of African American fighter pilots to serve in the U.S. Army Air Corps. First trained at the Tuskegee Army Air...

Ever wondered how Mars rovers take a selfie? Color video from NASA's Perseverance shows how the rover captured the historic April 6, 2021, image of itself beside the Ingenuity Mars Helicopter. As a bonus, the rover's entry, descent, and landing microphone captured the sound of the arm's motors whirring during the process. Selfies allow engineers to check wear and tear on the rover. But they also inspire a new generation of space enthusiasts: Many rover team members can cite a favorite image that sparked their interest in NASA. "I got into this because I saw a picture from Sojourner, NASA's...

There were curious characteristics about the H1N1 influenza pandemic of 1977-78, which emerged from northeastern Asia and killed an estimated 700,000 people around the world. For one, it almost exclusively affected people in their mid-20s or younger. Scientists discovered another oddity that could explain the first: It was virtually identical to a strain that circulated in the 1950s. People born before that had immunity that protected them, and younger people didn’t.But how on earth had it remained so steady genetically, since viruses continually mutate? Scientists guessed that it had been frozen in a lab. It was often found to be...

Israeli Government: Half of new Covid-19 cases in last month were fully vaccinated — Statistics presented by Israeli government officials show that half of those recently infected with Covid-19 were fully vaccinated.

El Paso, Texas – More than three months after Biden assigned Kamala Harris to manage the border crisis, she is finally traveling to the US-Mexico border for the first time in El Paso, Texas on Friday, June 25 – but only after President Trump vowed to go first. Although the specifics of her visit have not yet been released, Harris’ senior adviser and chief spokesperson confirmed that she will be accompanied by Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. Kamala Harris made it a priority to schedule foreign trips to Guatemala and Mexico earlier this month to address “root causes” of the...

The New York Times economist Paul Krugman has a knack for being allergic to the truth and is whining about how economics can survive in a “post-truth nation.” Krugman’s latest drivel was headlined, “Economics in a Post-Truth Nation.” Krugman attempted to convince readers that Republicans were daft for not accepting that “we’re clearly in a much better place economically than we were just a few months ago.” Krugman dismissed skyrocketing inflation and hiring problems as “transitory” and “temporary.” In Krugman’s own words, “I still miss the days when truth mattered.” Ironic that Krugman, who claims to care about “truth,” is...

The Department of Justice announced a suit against the state of Georgia Friday alleging that the state’s recently-signed election law is racially discriminatory. Georgia’s Election Integrity Act was signed in March by Republican Gov. Brian Kemp. The law imposes a voter ID requirement, expands early voting in most Georgia counties, requires that counties have at least one absentee voting drop box and shifts more control over election administration to the state legislature.

Explanation: How far can you see? The Andromeda Galaxy, 2.5 million light years away, is the most distant object easily seen by the unaided eye. Other denizens of the night sky, like stars, clusters, and nebulae, are typically hundreds to thousands of light-years distant. That's far beyond the Solar System but well within our own Milky Way Galaxy. Also known as M31, the external galaxy poses directly above a chimney in this well-planned deep night skyscape from an old mine in southern Portugal. The image was captured in a single exposure tracking the sky, so the foreground is slightly blurred...

Only tyrants threaten the use of force against their own people. On Wednesday, President Biden remarked, “If you wanted or if you think you need to have weapons to take on the government, you need F-15s and maybe some nuclear weapons.” This is reminiscent of California’s infamous Chinese-spy-bedding Congressman, Eric Swalwell’s threats via Twitter back in 2018, when he said about a hypothetical war against gun owners, “And it would be a short war my friend. The government has nukes….” Both references to nuclear weapons is designed to do one thing: to intimidate America’s armed populace. Drilling down, the core...

Everybody was afraid of getting...
