Hundreds of dissidents, students, artists, journalists, priests and even children have been arrested in Cuba following islandwide anti-government protests that erupted Sunday and their violent aftermath. Many remain incommunicado, according to family members and international organizations denouncing the arrests. “My mother just called me crying,” said Arnaldo Falcon, whose brother, Ariel Gonzalez Falcon, 21, has been detained since Sunday and is currently being held in a prison in El Cotorro, on the outskirts of Havana. “My parents have been in that disgusting prison since first thing in the morning, and now they have been told that they will hold him...

Explanation: Point your telescope at tonight's first quarter Moon. Along the terminator, the shadow line between night and day, you might find these two large craters staring back at you with an owlish gaze. Alphonsus (left) and Arzachel are ancient impact craters on the north eastern shores of Mare Nubium, the lunar Sea of Clouds. The larger Alphonsus is over 100 kilometers in diameter. A low sun angle highlights the crater's sharp 1.5 kilometer high central peak in bright sunlight and dark shadow. Scouting for potential Apollo moon landing sites, the Ranger 9 spacecraft returned closeup pictures of Alphonsus before...

The two most monumental events of the last year in the US were the election of Joe Biden to the presidency and the introduction of Covid-19 vaccines. Yet there are those who falsely believe Biden won only because of fraud or that they shouldn't get a vaccine.Take a look at the most recent Monmouth University poll, one of the few to ask about both people's vaccine status and how they view the 2020 election result.Not having received a vaccine was a minority position, at 34%, at the time of the poll in mid-June. Thinking Biden won only because of...

LINCOLN, New Hampshire — Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) announced Friday at the North County Republican Dinner in New Hampshire that he will introduce legislation to stop military officers from teaching Critical Race Theory (CRT). “I’m about to demand all these generals and admirals that want another promotion to commit that they are not going to be teaching anything like this [CRT] in their commands,” Cotton announced to a loud applause. He went on: CTR is the anti-American idea that the most important thing about you is your skin color; that some people are inherently privileged and oppressive because of the...

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Police declared an unlawful assembly and fired non-lethal projectiles to disperse an unruly crowd on Saturday after a dueling protest over transgender rights at a Los Angeles spa turned violent. The protests stemmed from a video that circulated online earlier this month, in which an irate customer complained to the staff at Wi Spa that a transgender woman was in the women's section of the spa. The video sparked controversy after the spa defended its policy of allowing transgender customers in its facilities, the Los Angeles Times reported. Police declared an unlawful assembly in front of...

In the small hours after midnight on the night of July 16-17 90 years ago, the former Tsar Nicholas II, his wife, children, and four family retainers, were shot in a Yekaterinburg basement by their Bolshevik jailers. Doting family man, vacillating dictator, as weak and rich as Croesus … the doomed Emperor and Autocrat of All the Russias was a man small of stature. His reign emerged under a bad star when 1,300 Muscovites were trampled to death in the crush for his coronation largesse; 18 years later, Nicholas‘s support for Serbia against Austria-Hungary was instrumental in pitching Europe into...

Former President Trump on Friday suggested that upcoming audit results out of Arizona and Georgia could create "highly determinative" shockwaves once they become publicly known. Trump made the claim in a statement late Friday. The former president claimed that mainstream media outlets "are doing major disinformation to try and discredit the massive number of voter irregularities and fraud found in both Arizona and Georgia. When the real numbers are released people will be shocked." "Numbers will be released shortly, and they are extraordinarily big and highly determinative!" he added. NEW!"AP and other media outlets are doing major disinformation to try...

At a time when parents are waking up to the threat of critical race theory in schools, Hollywood is doubling down on it. In fact, they’re eating their own. Just read the primary criticism of the latest work of Lin-Manuel Miranda—a man who literally cast black and Hispanic actors as America’s founding fathers in Hamilton: the actors playing Dominican characters aren’t dark enough. After catering to a smaller and smaller group of coastal elites, La-La Land is finally collapsing into itself under the weight of the political left’s own contradictions. It’s not enough for the left to set the agenda....

TV actor Isaiah Stokes has been indicted for the February murder of Tyrone Jones, the Queens District Attorney's Office announced Friday.

Stokes' next court date is set for July 19. If convicted of the charges against him, he faces up to 25 years-to-life in prison. "The defendant is accused of unloading nearly eleven shots during this brazen afternoon shooting," District Attorney Melinda Katz said...

I first posted this back in July 2015 but given the nonsense transpiring now I felt compelled to once again review the facts about slavery. Slavery was NOT created in the colonies. It was imported to the colonies from Africa. The Dutch went to Africa originally seeking gold and were paid in gold for transporting African slaves from one African port to another for black African slave owners. It's all here and a lot of it will be uncomfortable to many. Certain things tend to set off triggers in you. For me it was Don Lemon- when he joined the...

The real reason Francis hates the Latin MassDear Friends: The bad news keeps rolling in out of the Eternal City, but we’re more determined than ever to keep the clans united and to keep the momentum going. Thank God, Francis Fatigue is in full swing even among many who are not Traditional Catholics. In this Remnant-Tv.com exclusive, I consider the question of why in the middle of global upheaval, apostasy, and pandemic, Francis is focusing his papal sights not a church wracked with apostasy, but rather on the small remnant of believers who wish simply to attend the Mass of...
