You don't believe you gained your wealth on the backs of the poor. You are not wealthy, but want to be, but don't wish to rob or scam anyone to get that way. You don't feel guilty about wanting to keep more of what you've earned. You don't hate or wish to punish the people who have more than you, simply because they have more than you. You are not a racist, but the left says you are. You are not a homophobe, but the left says you are. You are not a bigot, but the left says you are....

Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs (D), who is running for governor, said Friday on CNN’s “Situation Room” that former President Donald Trump should “move on” and stop being a “sore loser.” Guest-host Jim Acosta asked, “Former President Trump will be in Arizona this weekend to peddle his baseless conspiracy theories about voter fraud. His go-to excuse for losing the 2021 election…How dangerous is it for Donald Trump to be coming to your state tomorrow, do you think?” Hobbs said, “Well, it is dangerous. I’m glad you pointed that out. But the bottom line is it doesn’t matter what he...

Study of a Power Source Based on Low Energy Nuclear Reactions (LENRs) Using Hydrogen Pressurized Nanoparticles Miley G.H., University of Illinois, US We are studying anomalous heat, attributed to Low Energy Nuclear Reactions (LENRs), generated from metal alloy nanoparticles loaded with hydrogen (or deuterium) through pressurizing the vessel containing the particles [1]. The primary result thus far is that the excess energies observed in experiments to date are all well above maximum estimation of what could be attributed to known chemical reactions. The discovery of ultra-high-density hydrogen cluster formation in void and dislocation loops has allowed us to develop host...

Supermarket supply chains are "starting to fail" because the "pingdemic" is sending thousands of workers into self-isolation, food industry leaders warned on Wednesday night. Shop shelves in some areas were empty of basic supplies, while petrol stations ran out of fuel as the NHS Test and Trace app threatened to bring parts of the economy to a standstill. MPs and industry leaders urged the Government to ease the growing crisis by including supermarket staff, lorry drivers and other frontline workers on a list of those exempted from automatic self-isolation when 'pinged' by the app as a contact of someone with...

The Peltzman effect is named after Sam Peltzman, professor of economics at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business. It describes the concept of ‘Risk Compensation’...that people become more careful where they sense greater risk and lesser careful if they feel more protected....He proposed that though people felt safer driving with a seat belt, it probably led to a phenomenon of driving with less attentiveness or higher speed causing an increased risk of run-off-road crashes or similar accidents....COVID-19 vaccination triggering Peltzman effect—An analysis of Peltzman effect reveals four main factors contributing to risk compensation, all of which appear to...

In a significant strategic step, the Indian Army has deployed specialised elements of a Strike Corps in eastern Ladakh to check any further misadventure by the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA). The soldiers of these specialized elements have started their reorientation training and familiarization. The move is seen as a part of the Army's 'rebalance' approach in northern, western and northeastern borders. As per a report in The Print, several new Strike Corps elements have arrived in Ladakh, which includes artillery units with specialised firepower, armoured and mechanised columns, and infantry. "This is part of the re-orientation training. This is...

Biden Administration Redacts Fauci and WHO Emails on COVID-19 Judicial Watch Defends Teacher Fired for Facebook Posts Criticizing Violence after Criticizing BLM Riots Judicial Watch to Court: Gender Quota for Corporate Boards Violates California’s Constitution Biden Administration Redacts Fauci and WHO Emails on COVID-19 Why does the federal government not want the public to know what Dr. Anthony Fauci or the World Health Organization were communicating about COVID-19? In May 2020 we sued the Department of Health and Human Services on behalf of the Daily Caller News Foundation (DCNF) for emails about COVID-19, China, and WHO. The last response...

As our freedoms are weakened by vaccine authoritarianism, protections for the convicted darlings of the “woke” continue to increase. The latest example is Maine where a bill was just signed preventing employees from asking if someone has a prior felony conviction until… wait for it… they’re already offered them the job. They can, however, ask up front if an applicant has been vaccinated for Covid-19. In essence, someone with a criminal record of violence or theft has a better chance of getting a job in Maine than someone who has acquired natural immunity to Covid-19 but who has chosen not...

American families are already struggling amid mounting price inflation that's eating away at their budgets, with higher costs for housing, vehicles, and more. Yet a top CEO is warning that the growing inflation problem facing Americans could get much worse in the coming months. The latest June data already show price inflation at a 13-year high, with prices having risen 5.4 percent year-over-year. Proponents of the big-government policies driving much of this increase insist the uptick in prices is only temporary. But billionaire and grocery chain CEO John Catsimatidis just predicted that overall price inflation, for consumer goods generally, will...

A federal appeals court, which previously sided with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) amid Gov. Ron DeSantis’s (R-FL) battle against the federal health agency over the vaccination rules it is imposing on the cruise industry, reversed its decision, ultimately siding with the state over the CDC’s No-Sail Orders.On Friday, Florida “filed an Emergency Application to Vacate the Eleventh Circuit’s Stay on the Preliminary Injunction.” That same day, the Eleventh Circuit reversed its earlier decision, allowing the cruise industry to resume operations without adhering to the CDC’s restrictions, including what effectively amounts to vaccine passports, which are illegal...

VIDEOWatch FBI Director Cristopher Wray answering questions from Senator Amy Klobuchar about the Capitol breach on January 6. When she points out how unprepared the FBI seemed to be despite the fact that all you had to be was a sentient being to know there would be problems there that day, Wray seems very oddly satisfied to the point of appearing to be almost giddy. A very strange reaction especially when compared the his extremely defensive attitude when he was questioned about FISA abuses by the FBI.

The debate over masks is heating up again, with increasing calls for all Americans, regardless of coronavirus vaccination status, to return to wearing face coverings in indoor public places to help thwart the spread of the highly contagious delta variant. But some experts say the recommendations should specify the kind of masks people should be using. Support our journalism. Subscribe today. “Delta is so contagious that when we talk about masks, I don’t think we should just talk about masks,” Scott Gottlieb, former commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration, said during a recent appearance on CBS’s “Face the Nation.”...

The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

So now Leon County Florida is intentionally hiding positive Covid cases from vaccinated people.They are deliberately and illegally manipulating the data to deceive the public. "Wow. Does any journalist want to look into this? Seems to me like this would be an effort to manipulate statistics so that only unvaccinated numbers are reported. More public health corruption!Quote Tweet" -Candace Owens "I work for a PCP in Tallahassee. This email was sent to us the other day about the swabbing we do in the office" -Rebecca

So, Stanley Druckenmiller ("Druck") says this is the biggest bubble he has ever seen. If we believe him, how do we adjust our IRAs and other investments -- especially for those of us approaching retirement? I know the gold story, but what else can we do? (I like platinum better...)

The first glitch in Nauka’s journey happened yesterday, when the spacecraft didn’t complete its first orbit-raising burn. This meant that the uncrewed Nauka wasn’t on track to actually intercept the ISS, which it’s scheduled to dock with on Thursday, July 29. The problem was attributed to a software issue in a computer aboard Nauka, which prevented the spacecraft’s main engines from firing. Nauka’s team was able to manage a remote course correction, but a second bout of course corrections were deemed necessary, and scheduled for today. One early report from journalist Anatoly Zak indicated that one of the spacecraft’s engines...

WASHINGTON, Tuesday, July 23. The feeling is much better here to-day. The enormous exaggerations of the runaway soldiers have ceased to have the effect which attended them yesterday. Our loss in killed and wounded will not much exceed six hundred, though the missing may be three times that number. It is understood that the Government has already taken the necessary steps to bring one hundred thousand men into the field here, and this renews the confidence and determination of the people. Col. RAMSAY's regiment has been accepted, and ordered to report at Washington within twenty days, and muster in by...

Recently released e-mails show that Dr. Anthony Fauci knew key facts about the origins of COVID-19 in January 2020. But at that critical time, when the country was first learning about the virus, Dr. Fauci chose not to share the facts with Americans. Instead, he acted to conceal them. On January 31, 2020, at 10:32 p.m., Dr. Fauci received an email from British researcher, Dr. Kristian Andersen. Dr. Andersen has received millions of dollars in grants from the NIH. In the email, he warned Dr. Fauci: [O]ne has to look really closely at all the sequences to see that some...
