The most highly cited physician on the early treatment of COVID-19 has come out with an explosive new video that blows the lid off the medical establishment’s complicity in the unnecessary deaths of tens of thousands of Americans. Dr. Peter McCullough said these deaths have been facilitated by a false narrative bent on pushing an all-new, unproven vaccine for a disease that was highly treatable. He said COVID was a bioweapon and the vaccines represent “phase two” of that bioweapon. “As this, in a sense, bioterrorism phase one was rolled out, it was really all about keeping the population in...

Analysts said 6,453 police-reported incidents of drug-impaired driving in 2019, the first full year of legalization, “a 43% increase over 2018.” Unlike drinking and driving charges that peak in twilight hours, “the rate of drug-impaired driving varies little from one time of day to another,” said the report. “Police reported just as many of these incidents between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m., as between 11 p.m. and 3 a.m,.” wrote analysts. Cases also took twice as long to wind through the courts as alcohol-related charges.

"This step has been taken for the sake of our nature, for the sake of our fisheries, for the sake of our tourism industry, and to focus our business on sustainable potentials," the government, called Naalakkersuisut, said in a statement. "We can see the consequences in our country every day, and we are ready to contribute to global solutions to counter climate change,"

There's a potential nuke of a case in Georgia on Monday at 13:30 regarding the Georgia Senate runoff from January 5th that has a very good chance to flip the Senate back to the GOP. I'm trying not to use click-baity words in titles, so you tell me if this is a possible "nuke": This one is different because it involves the Georgia Senators and not President Trump. If it moves forward, clowns Stacey Abrams and RINO rat Raffensperger would be deposed, and best of all, the judge has the authority to call for a new senate election, shifting control...

Afghans who worked for the U.S. government will be flown directly to the U.S., while a larger group will be evacuated to third countries or military bases overseas where their visa paperwork will be reviewed, three administration officials told NBC News. As U.S. troops leave the country, the Biden administration has come under growing pressure from lawmakers, veterans groups and refugee rights organizations to take action to protect Afghans who face retaliation from the Taliban for their work as interpreters or in other jobs for U.S. troops and diplomats. About 2,500 Afghans whose visa applications have cleared security vetting will...

Emergency authorization for Covid-19 vaccines in children under 12 could come in midwinter, a Food and Drug Administration official said , a move that could bring relief to many parents who have been unable to vaccinate their children. The agency hopes to then move quickly to full approval of the vaccine for this age group. One sticking point for some families who remain hesitant, the official said, is that the vaccines currently in use are administered under emergency use authorization and have not been given full approval by the FDA. Full approval, if it comes quickly after the emergency round,...

The bomb has been dropped. Today Pope Francis issued his motu proprio Traditionis custodes severely restricting the celebration of the traditional Latin Mass. In effect, it wipes out Pope Benedict’s 14-year-old motu proprio, Summorum Pontificum, which was issued in order to help those faithful who “continued to be attached with such love and affection to the earlier liturgical forms which had deeply shaped their culture and spirit.” Apparently Pope Francis doesn’t think that’s necessary anymore. I’m not going to analyze the details of the new motu proprio here—you can find that elsewhere. Instead I’d like to share my initial reaction...

New employment numbers reveal which states are seeing unemployment rates bounce back fastest as Americans continue to recover from the Wuhan coronavirus pandemic as well as those that are still struggling to get residents back to work, and there's a common denominator in those doing poorly: expanded unemployment benefits and Democrat leadership. The number crunchers at WalletHub took newly-released data and looked at five key metrics from all 50 states plus the District of Columbia to compare unemployment rate data from June 2021 with key dates in 2019 and 2020 to complete its ranking of states' economic recovery. Bolstering conservatives'...

Audit of 2020 presidential election shows that 74,000-plus more Mail-in votes were counted in Maricopa County than were mailed out. Biden “won” Arizona by 10,000 votes.

How amusing it is to see the advocates of critical race theory (CRT) and the 1619 Project vehemently deny that their philosophy is even being taught in elementary and secondary schools. Most recently, teachers’ union president Randi Weingarten insisted that CRT is merely a subject of discussion in law schools and the legal community, not in the public school system. Hogwash! Parents wouldn’t be mobilizing against CRT if they didn’t witness its divisive propaganda being dumped on their children. Ironically, we have the COVID lockdowns to thank for this. Ordinarily, parents aren’t exposed to what their children are being...

According to the complaint, investigators found a Three Percenters sticker on Rogers' truck. The FBI has said the Three Percenters is a "radical militia group" with ties to the Capitol siege. Investigators also said they found a "White Privilege Card."

On Thursday, an Arizona Senate hearing on the Maricopa County election audit took place and Twitter did its part to ensure that its users knew that the evidence presented was all bunk.If you were on Twitter on Thursday, you might have seen prominently displayed in the sidebar under “What’s Happening” a note saying: “There is no evidence of widespread fraud in Maricopa County’s 2020 presidential election results, according to election officials and fact-checkers.”pic.twitter.com/Vn0XEz5gWc— Matt Margolis (@mattmargolis) July 16, 2021Are these the same fact-checkers who determined that claims that COVID-19 escaped from the Wuhan Institute of Virology were a conspiracy theory?...

Democrats have been pinning their hopes on Justice Stephen Breyer retiring while they still have a majority in the Senate. Liberal groups have launched billboard campaigns pressuring the 82-year-old justice to call it quits, suggesting his “legacy” is at risk. But Breyer crushed Democrats’ hopes when he told CNN in an exclusive interview that he has no plans to retire anytime soon and that he’s happy in his new role as the senior liberal on the bench. President Bill Clinton nominated Breyer in 1994. What will ultimately determine his eventual decision to retire? “Primarily, of course, health,” Breyer explained. “Second,...

Last week I shared with you the startling results of polling that only about a third of Americans aged 18-24 “were proud or very proud” of being American. I argued that one major reason for this dramatic falloff in patriotism was the infiltration of Critical Race Theory (CRT) into our nation’s public schools.Since then a very interesting column has been published acknowledging the lethal ability of CRT to splinter and undermine everything in American society by William A. Galston, “How Adherents see ‘Critical Race Theory.’” Galston served in the Clinton administration (1993-95) and is with the Brookings Institution. Having surveyed...

[Catholic Caucus] A RORATE CÆLI Editorial: The Attack of Hatred and Vengeance Against the Latin Mass Should be Ignored As confident as we were in our sources forecasting today as the day of reckoning for Summorum Pontificum and the traditional Latin Mass as we know it, in the back of our minds we had hoped it was merely an unfounded rumor. After all, Pope Benedict XVI is not only alive, but fully cognizant, dressed in a white cassock while living in the Vatican gardens. To that end, would a sitting pope be so arrogant as to publicly humiliate the 94...

This follow-up to my original article is intended to address the idea of restitution and how Zacchaeus fits into our modern-day narrative. I recently wrote an article to explain one of the most fundamental principles of economics, namely, that you are not entitled to the labor or production of any other human being. In other words, no one has the right to enslave another person, to demand the fruit of their labor, or to threaten by government force that they perform some labor (think baker, flower designer, etc.).Numerous comments on the article were made, but one stood out to me:...

Former Trump administration official Miles Taylor has slammed the Republican Party, arguing that the GOP represents a greater threat to the country than U.S.-designated terrorist groups ISIS and Al Qaeda. Taylor served as the chief of staff to the secretary of Homeland Security under former President Donald Trump from February 2019 to September 2019 and worked for the Department of Homeland Security in the previous administration for more than two years. However, Taylor went on to publicly condemn Trump and work with conservative groups to campaign against the former president ahead of the 2020 election. During a Thursday evening interview...
