  • The administration seems to be acting with malice aforethought

    It’s difficult to accept that we’re seeing mere incompetence with an administration that defiantly gets everything wrong. A legal term, malice aforethought identifies intentional murder or malicious bodily harm. From the election to COVID policy, to how we left Afghanistan, to inflation and the budget, to energy policy, to our lawless border, there is no way our entire U.S. government is stupid enough to make so many grievous policy decisions without malice and planning. They’re throwing ingredients into the stew pot to create socialism and it’s a very unsavory dish. I am not a ‘conspiracy theorist,’ because what I see...
  • The State Department is keeping Americans from leaving Afghanistan

    After airlifting over 100,000 unvetted Afghans on military flights, the State Department is refusing to allow chartered flights with Americans on them. Under orders from the White House, the State Department, and the Pentagon, the troops on the ground in Afghanistan presided over a partial, chaotic, and awful evacuation of American citizens and Afghan allies in the last days before the U.S. withdrew its military and diplomatic presence entirely from Afghanistan. Since then, private organizations have been trying desperately to rescue Americans, Afghan allies, and Afghans who converted to Christianity. The last two groups, of course, face imminent death. On...
  • EXC: Biden’s National Security Council China Director Is Former Fellow At Chinese State-Funded Group Advising Communist Officials Sanctioned For Human Rights Abuses.

    Hosted within the Harvard Kennedy School, the Ash Center for Democratic Governance and Innovation is funded by several Chinese Communist Party-backed entities. Among its donors are China Southern Power Grid Corp, whose management is “directly appointed by China’s central government.” Additional donations come from New World China Enterprises Project, a Chinese company whose board is composed of virtually all Chinese Communist Party members. Chairman and Executive Director Cheng Kar-Shun served as a Standing Committee Member of the regime’s Political Consultative Conference, an arm of the party-state responsible for conducting overseas influence operations. As a result, the center has routinely produced...
  • Fauci’s entire dishonest house of cards just collapsed

    A trove of NIH documents shows that Fauci is a sociopathic liar responsible for hundreds of thousands of American deaths, but that we can learn from all this. Perhaps, at long last, the deadly reign of Anthony Fauci will come to an end. That’s because The Intercept, a hard-left publication, has revealed 900 pages of government documents definitively proving that Fauci used his position to fund gain-of-function research into bat viruses at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (“WIV”)—and then lied to Congress about it. Since February 2020, the wizened Fauci has been the face of the government’s response to the...

    The State Department on Tuesday expressed concerns over the makeup of the new interim Afghan government announced by the Taliban, including the lack of female leaders and the past actions of some of those appointed to top posts. A State Department spokesperson said in a statement shared with The Hill that although the Taliban “has presented this as a caretaker cabinet,” the U.S. “will judge the Taliban by its actions, not words.” “We have made clear our expectation that the Afghan people deserve an inclusive government,” the spokesperson added. The statement went on to note that the list of names...

    Even worse than a coup.... We are in a serious crisis, one that the corporate media are loath to even hint at. The reason is obvious: responsibility lies in the hands of President Biden and his leadership team. Professor Glenn Reynolds, aka, the Instapundit, is unafraid to face the reality, and writes about in the New York Post: Our military’s civilian leadership is corrupt and incompetent. The brass commands respect neither among the citizenry nor the forces it commands. Mid-level officers are in a rage — a dangerous phenomenon that in many other nations triggers insurrections and coups. (snip) Meanwhile,...

    More than a dozen former NFL players, including former star running back Clinton Portis, have pleaded guilty to federal charges linked to a multimillion-dollar nationwide scheme to defraud a health care benefit program.

    BBC ^ | Sep 8 | BBC
    A new health and social care tax will be introduced across the UK to pay for reforms to the care sector and NHS funding in England. Boris Johnson said it would raise £12bn a year, designed to tackle the health backlog caused by the Covid pandemic and to bolster social care. He accepted the tax broke a manifesto pledge, but said the "global pandemic was in no-one's manifesto". However, Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer said the plan was a "sticking plaster". Leaders in social care also warned the money was "nowhere near enough" and would not address current problems. The...

    "I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo. "So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us." I am of the opinion that we are all a part of one of the great epochal shifts in human history and that what we fight to secure today will reverberate through society for generations. We did not ask for this moment — most of us, in fact, have...

    I can attest to the fact that many Dems do not follow politics closely enough to grasp what has happened to the party over the years. It is more than difficult to grasp that Americans of the Democrat ilk remain unable to see through the illegitimacy of the Biden regime, especially in view of the Afghanistan catastrophe. It seems that Dems are myopic to political reality as they remain victims of Trump Derangement Syndrome and willfully ignorant of the fact that the country is experiencing an escalation of multiple crisis occurring simultaneously. And that these crises, deliberate and intentional, are...

    Vancouver Province [Canada] ^ | September 7, 2021 | Brian Lilley
    Adam Scotti, Trudeau’s photographer since 2013, posted one photo that appeared to show the Liberal leader in the sensitive area of a hospital while another shot featured his boss’ crotch as the main element. The online posting of those photos, both taken at Toronto’s UHN hospital, have now been deleted. In one photo of Trudeau visiting the University Health Network in downtown Toronto, it appears to show the PM speaking to health-care workers in a ward setting. Given restrictions on hospital visits throughout COVID-19, the image caused outrage among many who said they were denied a chance to see ill...
  • President Biden Must Be Impeached (Absolutely!!!)

    Joe Biden should not be allowed to resign to escape punishment for he has committed high crimes and misdemeanors. He must be impeached. Even American allies agree. In the British Parliament, Tom Tugendhat, MP and decorated former British officer who fought in Afghanistan, said, “This week has torn open old wounds. We have demonstrated that we, the West, abandoned our allies.” Hinting at Biden, he added, “We cannot rely on a single leader.” Colonel Richard Kemp, former Commander of UK Forces in Afghanistan alongside local Afghan forces, insists that Biden, as Commander in Chief, should be court-marshaled, the military version...

    As I write this, both my wife and I have COVID. My wife came down with COVID symptoms approximately two weeks ago. My symptoms started approximately a week ago. Our diagnoses were confirmed at a local clinic. Both my wife and I are unvaccinated. This is because we believed that we would inevitably catch COVID, and we wanted to prepare in the best way possible for that eventuality rather than rely upon an endless series of COVID "vaccines" with limited effectiveness and unknown side-effects. Also, we wanted to live the remainder of our lives not in fear of catching COVID,...

  • Afghanistan: Scarborough Uses Military, Spirit of 9/11, to Shield Biden

    Joe was back Tuesday after a long break from the show, and his first thought was, gosh am I proud of America! You almost wondered if he would break into song... "I’m really proud of what I’ve seen from my country, from America over the past few weeks." Scarborough sounded like he was reading a canned statement, and he couldn't summon a word of blame for Biden. It was particularly odious of Scarborough to exploit the memory of 9/11—and the "let's roll" heroes of United Airlines Flight 93 that crashed in Shanksville, Pennsylvania—in an attempt to shift the onus from...

    Those who are unvaccinated were nearly six times more likely to be hospitalized with severe COVID illness in August than those who have received the vaccine, according to a New Jersey Hospital Association analysis of COVID hospitalizations. Nearly three in every four patients hospitalized with COVID, or 73.3 percent, had not received a single dose of the vaccine, according to data reported by N.J. hospitals through the NJHA COVID-19 Data Portal. A new bulletin from NJHA's Center for Health Analytics, Research and Transformation provides a snapshot view of data from Aug. 31, as reported by hospitals through the NJHA COVID-19...
