The doctor who developed the technology used in the majority of COVID shots warned that the US government is withholding information regarding the risks from coronavirus vaccines.Dr. Robert Malone, who invented the mRNA technology now being used in both the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna COVID vaccines, spoke with Fox News this week about the push to vaccinate young adults and even children.With the Centers for Disease Control finding a link between the Pfizer and Moderna coronavirus vaccines and heart muscle inflammation among young people – particularly younger males – Dr. Malone said that a “risk-benefit” analysis must be made before children...

Bad news for Progressives. Good news for America. Trump’s back. He won’t just shut up as his critics demand and his supporters are growing increasingly belligerent.More than OK, really; I relish it.Me? I intend to remain caffeinated at all times. In fact I’m going to steel myself for another day with a couple of these donut cones filled with covfefe ice cream with a side shot of espresso. Caffeine, it’s our best weapon. Prove me wrong.Posted from: MOTUS A.D.

Early on June 17, Elsa Mikeska was shot and killed outside a Houston gym. The 62-year-old grandmother had just pulled into the gym parking lot when two men in an older Chevy Suburban got out, apparently demanding money, and then shot her dead as she fled toward the gym entrance. At this point, one of those responsible, a 16-year-old now charged with capital murder, has been apprehended, while two others remain at large. It appears that the same persons who killed Mikeska may have attempted a carjacking an hour earlier and that same night shot through the window of a...

The “progressive” left has done us a solid. I just want to be humble and thank them. They didn’t have to do it. They just couldn’t resist. They acted like kids in the candy store. Or, more accurately, low-intelligence looters at Best Buy. We passively gave them permission to smash-and-grab control of the country, without immediate consequences. How on earth could they resist that temptation? Instead of continuing, stealthily and incrementally, to move toward their goal of a Marxist takeover in America, an idea that powerful forces have been surreptitiously nurturing for at least 50 years, they let loose and...

Parents are waking up to the scam in education called critical race theory. The dismantling of high school math courses demands the same attention. It is really a struggle to imagine what the Virginia Department of Education (VDOE) has in mind by discussing the elimination of accelerated math classes in schools until 11th grade in the name of equity. The story broke in April 2021and shortly thereafter, the VDOE leadership was backpedaling due to parent backlash. “Absolutely, acceleration is NOT going away in mathematics courses in Virginia, if a student needs an accelerated pathway they will absolutely get it,” said...

Thanks for joining us today as we study common sayings that originated from the Bible unbeknownst to most people. But the good news is that reading the Bible is trending upward according to the American Bible Society’s 11th annual “State of the Bible.” The Society reports that “millions more Americans turned to the Bible in the past year than in previous years.” Perhaps it was pandemic related when “one in four U.S. adults report a more frequent Bible reading habit than did last year.” Maybe that “habit” will continue considering the Bible is still the world’s all-time best-selling book with...

Lots of powerful people want you to stay scared about COVID, even as the toll in terms of death and hospitalization continues to plummet. It's easily proven to be bunk. Lots of powerful people want you to stay scared about COVID, even as the toll in terms of death and hospitalization continues to plummet in the United States and other advanced countries. Because viruses naturally evolve rapidly, they have a new variant, at first called “The Indian variant” because it was first spotted there. But it has now been renamed the “delta variant,” perhaps to be able to continue to...

Lots of Republicans have ideas and plans to find better candidates and to raise more money for 2022 and 2024, but that's not the answer. These plans won't work. Take my home state of Nevada as an example. Donald Trump won the presidency in 2016 but still lost Nevada by about 27,000 votes. Then, in 2020, when Trump got the most votes of any Republican candidate in the history of America, he lost Nevada by about 33,000 votes. Nevada is a purple battleground state, just like Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. Trump lost those six states by razor-thin margins....

The task force also called for 'trigger warnings' to accompany historical contentThe National Archives' task force on racism claimed in a little-noticed report to the U.S.’s top librarian that the Archives' own Rotunda – which houses the Declaration of Independence, the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights – is an example of "structural racism" and that the Founding Fathers and other White, historically impactful Americans are portrayed too positively. The report was completed in April and released this month but has so far flown under the media radar. The task force claims that structural racism "unequivocally impacts" how...

The disappearance of Chinese vice-minister of State Security Dong Jingwei is the most fascinating report of the week. Maybe I’ve been too engrossed in Charles McCarry’s wonderful spy novels, but this week the story of the disappearance of Chinese vice-minister of State Security (the Guoanbu) Dong Jingwei strikes me as the most fascinating report of the week. While we are unlikely to get the full story for a while -- if ever -- I think he’s in the U.S. under deep cover and that has to concern both the leaders of China and any CCP operatives there may be in...

Source: Unsplash/Alex SmithWhen Christina Clemons qualified for the Tokyo Olympics, the media latched on to her taste in fashion – namely, the Cool Ranch Doritos earrings that she wore during trials. But she was wearing something else when she won too: a cross necklace. On June 20, Christina made Team USA after placing third in the 100-meter hurdles during the U.S. Olympic track and field trials. The 31-year-old hurdler from Waldorf, Maryland, isn’t new to success: She was an eleven-time All-American and ten-time Big Ten champion at Ohio State University. She’s won both silver and gold during world championships. But...

There are few things liberals love more than crying racism, but not many. Money from perverts, abusing power, and maybe some of their families, but that’s about it. Crying racism is oxygen to the average Democrat, but it’s heroin for elected and media Democrats and the addiction they have for it makes Hunter Biden’s love of crack and hookers seem like passionate indifference. It is their precious and these Gollums will do anything to ensure its use is their exclusive domain. Unfortunately for them, its practice is also their exclusive domain. The Nazis were not as dogged as Democrats are...

WASHINGTON — Consumer spending was flat in May with incomes dropping for a second month as the impact of the government's pandemic stimulus payments waned. Inflation, however, posted a sizable gain with prices excluding food and energy jumping by the largest amount in nearly three decades. The flat reading for consumer spending in May represented a marked slowdown following gains of 0.9% in April and a 5% surge in March, the Commerce Department reported Friday. The spending surge in March had been fueled by distribution of payments of up to $1,400 per individual from a $1.9 trillion stimulus bill, the...

After claiming to be “personally” offended over accusations the drag queen-loving U.S. military is woke, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Army Gen. Mark Milley said, “I want to understand white rage, and I’m white.” Oh, okay, because that’s not woke at all. This happened during congressional testimony on Wednesday. Then he added this bone-chilling explanation: “What is it that caused thousands of people to assault this building and try to overturn the Constitution of the United States of America?” The implication being it was “white rage.” Okay, just for starters, only an idiot would see skin color as...

Despite its distinctive sound, not many people know the name of this two-string bowed fiddle, even in Jakarta where the instrument originated centuries ago....

At least 20 people were detained in Turkey as riot police resorted to using tear gas & rubber bullets to disrupt the annual Pride Parade in Istanbul. At least 20 people were detained in Turkey as riot police resorted to using tear gas and rubber bullets to disrupt the annual Pride Parade in Istanbul, intensifying a crackdown on the march amid increased government hostility toward LGBTQ individuals in the country. Earlier, Istanbul's Governor's office had denied granting a permit for the said parade which has been held since 2003 but banned for the last seven years. Upon consecutive rejections. hundreds...

Near the end of the video for Journey's new single "The Way We Used to Be," an animated proxy of guitarist Neal Schon appears to transform into a dung beetle. It would be an odd visual choice if not for the insect's importance in Journey lore, appearing — in various fantastical forms — on multiple album sleeves. But why a beetle to begin with? The answer involves another rock giant. "We got the job to do a Jimi Hendrix album cover," visual artist Stanley Mouse told NBC Bay Area in 2017, referencing his creative partner Alton Kelley. "And just as...
