One of the most famous Kings in the world has to be Henry VIII of England. He is most known today for the fact he had 6 wives, and the fact he ordered the execution of 2 of these, Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard. Henry VIII's love life certainly was turbulent, and it caused chaos across the country. After being refused a divorce for his first wife Catherine of Aragon, he split from Rome becoming the Supreme Head of the Church of England. This began the English Reformation, which changed the face of religion forever.We know much about Henry's wives,...

The Great Reset began in earnest this month with the Great Reveal, as the emboldened elites unfurled their blueprints for our coming re-education centers. George W. Bush got so excited about his new position as Assistant (to the) Gulag Commissar that he mixed up his job acceptance speech with his 9/11 memorial speech. “Domestic extremists” are the main threat to the homeland, they tell us. “White supremacists” are the real terrorists. Meanwhile the non-extreme experts in charge of the planet just obliterated seven toddlers at their home in Kabul, but that was fine, since state-sanctioned child murder is, well, state-sanctioned....

My previous posts regarding repeal of the horrid 17th Amendment were built on a simple republican foundation; members of republics are represented in the lawmaking body. The Constitution acts on the people and states, and both had their place in congress until 1913. In its wake, the 17th Amendment left behind a federal Constitution without a federal government. Here, I take a different tack as to why the 17A must go. I will show from the standpoint of balancing society’s natural proclivities, we must reestablish a federal senate of the states. Without a strong middle institution to repel democracy, the...

Kyrie Irving now has a decision to make: Get the COVID-19 vaccine, or sit games out without pay. With COVID-19 vaccination mandates in New York City (and San Francisco), NBA spokesperson Mike Bass issued a statement on Wednesday: “Any player who elects not to comply with local vaccination mandates will not be paid for the games that he misses,” Bass wrote. If Irving is unvaccinated, he would forfeit a huge chunk of his $34.9 million salary by missing the Nets’ 43 games in New York at the Barclays Center and Madison Square Garden. The Warriors’ Andrew Wiggins has said he...

The one thing guaranteed when one uses race as a means to power is absurdity. The actual truth is ignored for the optics that can be spun to serve those pursuing power. And the absurdity arises from the simple fact that many folks see the actual truth plainly but choose to ignore it for the power that the optics promise. Those were my thoughts as I drove over the bridge from San Diego to Coronado on a sunny and humid August day. The small town, home to the Navy SEALs, had made news this past June during the Division 4-A...

Denmark's Kunsten Museum of Modern Art was epically hoodwinked after giving artist Jens Haaning $84,000 to use in a piece -- only to have him pocket the cash and turn in blank canvases cheekily entitled "Take the Money and Run." It was a case of art imitating heist. Just in case you thought charging $120,000 for a banana was highway robbery, a Danish museum gave an artist $84,000 to use in a commissioned piece — only to have him pocket the cash and turn in two blank canvases cheekily entitled “Take the Money and Run.” “The work is that I...

Where is work getting done these days? Increasingly, in the suburbs and exurbs of the big metros, smaller metros, cities and even some rural areas, all of which offer lower urban densities, which usually means less overcrowding. In the first year of the pandemic, big cities, according to the firm American Communities and based on federal data, suffered the biggest job losses, nearly 10 percent, followed by their suburbs, while rural areas suffered 6 percent and exurbs less than 5 percent. The highest unemployment rates today are in coastal blue states, while the lowest tend to be in central and...

Police arrested a Texas man Monday in connection with a triple homicide after dismembered bodies were found in a burning dumpster in Fort Worth, authorities said. Firefighters made the grisly discovery last week after they put out the fire and then found body parts inside. The dismembered remains of a man and two women were found burned in the dumpster, police said Tuesday. Investigators looked at surveillance video near the dumpster and immediately homed in on a Jeep Grand Cherokee, a model between 2005 and 2010, police Sgt. Joe Loughman told reporters. "He does not have an extensive criminal history....

SAN DIEGO, Calif. — With COVID’s Delta variant becoming the new concern during the pandemic, many areas are continuing to insist that the public use face masks. However, just how many masks will do? According to a recent study, three-layered masks are more effective at preventing the spread of COVID viral particles. Previous studies have shown masks with three layers are more successful at blocking the passage of small respiratory particles however, recent research indicates they are also better at preventing large particles from breaking down into smaller droplets. This makes them the better option for protection. In a study...

Rep. Matt Gaetz called the Anti-Defamation League “racist” after it again called on Fox News host Tucker Carlson to be fired for promoting the white supremacist “Great Replacement” conspiracy theory. Gaetz, the Republican congressman from Florida, also endorsed the conspiracy theory. On his popular show Wednesday, Carlson trumpeted the idea that Democrats are working to bring foreigners into the United States in order to weaken the voting power of white people. He said,”this policy is called the ‘Great Replacement,’ the replacement of legacy Americans with more obedient people from far-away countries.” The “Great Replacement” is a term used by white...

The first human case of rabies has been reported in Illinois since 1954, according to the Illinois Department of Public Health. A Lake County resident in his 80s woke up with a bat on his neck in mid-August, the health department said. The bat was caught and tested positive for rabies. The man was told he needed to begin post-exposure rabies treatment, but declined, according to the health department. One month later, IDPH said the man started feeling symptoms consistent with rabies, such as neck pain, headache, difficulty controlling his arms, finger numbness and difficulty speaking.

Jan Markell hosts health expert Twila Brase in a discussion of forced vaccines. Are the unvaccinated about to become the untouchables? Many experts now say the virus was about the vaccine. How does the Christian respond to government power and control? We now enter the era of “no vaccine—no service.” MARANATHA!

Raising some prices will certainly give the national chain some flexibility and likely more variety on its shelves. But a dollar this year will not buy you what it did in 2020. Annual inflation in the U.S. reached 4.2% in July, the highest in three decades. And this week in an appearance before Congress, Fed Chair Jerome Powell said that price increases have worsened amid snarled supply chains and rising labor costs. That has hit businesses of every type, perhaps especially one that has held the line at $1 for decades.

Speaking to reporters at the White House Wednesday afternoon, Press Secretary Jen Psaki refused to give a timeline for when OSHA will release a new federal rule, put in place by President Joe Biden, that forces companies with more than 100 employees to require Wuhan coronavirus vaccinations. "You had said it [OSHA rule] would be weeks just now, when it was announced a few weeks ago it was going to take a few weeks so are you signaling a delay of any kind with that rule?" a reporter asked. "We never gave an exact timeline so maybe we should have...

Biden’s most recently revealed Afghanistan lie is just the latest in a string of outright falsehoods and deceptions the White House is resorting to in the face of failure.Hardly a day passes anymore that resident Joe Biden or members of his administration do not stand before the American people and lie through their teeth.The latest lie to be exposed came Tuesday, when Gen. Kenneth McKenzie, head of U.S. Central Command, told the Senate Armed Services Committee that he advised Biden to keep 2,500 troops in Afghanistan, and that withdrawing them “would lead inevitably to the collapse of the Afghan military...

Worms don't wiggle when they have Alzheimer's disease. Yet something helped worms with the disease hold onto their wiggle in Professor Jessica Tanis's lab. While all the worms were grown on a diet of E. coli, it turns out that one strain of E. coli had higher levels of vitamin B12 than the other. "The worms we use all have exactly the same genetic background, they react to amyloid beta like humans do, and we can exactly control what they eat, so we can really get down to the molecular mechanisms at work." In the brains of humans with Alzheimer's,...
