The talk around the virtual water cooler this Monday morning is the mysterious firing of a Boulder Daily Camera reporter over a September 11 anniversary feature article.The story was completely retracted less than a week after it was published, but the paper waited until this weekend to offer a bizarre explanation that suggests the reporter either made it up, or got pretty much everything wrong except the date.The reporter is even blamed for a misleading headline.Apparently, there are no actual editors left at the Boulder Camera to read a story before it is printed.Reached Friday evening, the author of the...

Here we go, Biden is live from the Truman set. He must need this set because it has a BIG teleprompter off set.

The unexpected discovery of the double-charm tetraquark has given physicists a new tool with which to hone their understanding of the strongest of nature’s fundamental forces ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ A simple model can explain groupings of two or three quarks, but it fails to explain tetraquarks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- This spring, at a meeting of Syracuse University’s quark physics group, Ivan Polyakov announced that he had uncovered the fingerprints of a semi-mythical particle. “We said, ‘This is impossible. What mistake are you making?’” recalled Sheldon Stone, the group’s leader. Polyakov went away and double-checked his analysis of data from the Large Hadron Collider beauty...

WINCHESTER, Virginia — An Emergency Room nurse fired for not taking the shot after his religious exemption was denied has spoken candidly to LifeSiteNews about what he saw on the so-called frontlines during the COVID-19 crisis. In a video interview published yesterday, former Valley Health System nurse Brad McDowell spoke to LifeSite correspondent Jim Hale about the contrast between what he has witnessed and the story being told by the media regarding the COVID-19 pandemic. “The narrative that we’re being told didn’t really line up with reality,” McDowell stated. “Most people of working age aren’t of a risk [for contracting...

Terry McAuliffe leads ex-president Donald Trump in the former’s campaign for a second term as Virginia’s governor. But as the November 2 election approaches, Democrat McAuliffe has a problem; Trump’s not on the ballot. A Republican who was a business success and never filed for bankruptcy—Glenn Youngkin—is. Youngkin spent 25 years at Carlyle Group, the international private investment firm, the last two as co-chief executive officer, before stepping down in 2020 to run for governor. An Emerson College survey taken October 1 – 3 put McAuliffe at 49 percent, Youngkin at 48. Democrat Joe Biden carried Virginia by 10 points...

What part of the Constitution allows elected officials to issue mandates? When I got COVID-19 a couple of weeks ago, after a few days with the symptoms, I went to the hospital at the behest of my friends and got the anti-bodies. The doctor asked me why had I not gotten the COVID-19 vaccine. My response to him was “You really want to go there? You really want me to answer you. Tuskegee. The Tuskegee Experiment.” He responded, “ok. no problem. I understand.” The young man in this video posted a strong response about why Black Americans are hesitant about...

Dr. Christopher Rake is escorted from UCLA Medical Center by security (Twitter screenshot)“This is what happens when you stand up for freedom.”“This” was being summarily fired, escorted, and deposited from the premises like so much refuse by security guards at University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) Health.That’s the Westwood hospital where Dr. Christopher B. Rake worked until Tuesday as an anesthesiologist.It’s unclear what Dr. Rake is now. Is he fired? On unpaid leave? What’s clear is that the anesthesiologist can’t go to work. All because he refused a forced medical procedure — a shot — that he didn’t want, didn’t...

TRADITIONIS CUSTODES: Separating Fact from FictionWhen, on July 16, 2021, Pope Francis promulgated Traditionis Custodes, restricting the traditional Latin Mass, he said that according to the results of a recent Vatican consultation of bishops, the norms of his predecessors Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI, had been exploited by some who attend the traditional Latin Mass to sow dissent from the Second Vatican Council. In the apostolic letter, Pope Francis writes in regard to the survey of bishops:“In line with the initiative of my Venerable Predecessor Benedict XVI to invite the bishops to assess the application of the...

The Wall Street Journal reported Thursday that a “special-operations unit and a contingent of Marines have been secretly operating in Taiwan to train military forces there, U.S. officials said, part of efforts to shore up the island’s defenses as concern regarding potential Chinese aggression mounts. About two dozen members of U.S. special-operations and support troops are conducting training for small units of Taiwan’s ground forces.”For folks like me who distrust the Chinese Communists, and thus pray Beijing doesn’t attempt to conquer Taiwan, this is good news.This information clearly was leaked, probably to serve as a deterrent, reminding China that a...

Newly uncovered video shows Anthony Fauci and other HHS officials discussing how a new virus from China could be used to enforce universal vaccination back in October of 2019.

A team of academics has disclosed today two vulnerabilities known collectively as TPM-FAIL that could allow an attacker to retrieve cryptographic keys stored inside TPMs. Thanks to efforts from the research team, both vulnerabilities have been fixed, which is a good thing since both issues can be weaponized in doable real-world attacks -- something that is very rare in the case of TPM vulnerabilities. TPM stands for Trusted Platform Module...used to ensure hardware integrity during the boot-up process or to attest various cryptographic operations, such as handling digital certificates, ensuring HTTPS connections on servers, or verifying authentication-related processes. However, as...

If there is still one person somewhere in America who doesn’t think President Joe Biden and the toxic progressives who increasingly call the shots for the White House and the Democratic Party are heading swiftly down an authoritarian road, here’s yet another illustration:div class="thm-piano-mop"> “The Administration strongly opposes section 716, which would detract from readiness and limit a commander’s options for enforcing good order and discipline when a Service member fails to obey a lawful order to receive a vaccination …“The Administration also strongly opposes section 720, which would create a new and overly broad exemption from the vaccination requirement...

China’s aggressiveness in the face of Biden’s weakness could plunge the world into war. Its dictator Xi Jinping is thinking about issues that few Americans understand or even know about.China has been violating Taiwan’s airspace with massive numbers of aircraft, including nuclear-capable bombers accompanied by fighters in recent days. But October 5th was the last such incursion, a pause that has no public explanation. The Chinese government feels no need to explain itself to its own people or to the world.These provocations could well be a prelude to an attack against what the Beijing regime considers a rebel province. There...
