Former Trump administration Surgeon General Jerome Adams said Monday on CNN’s “Cuomo Prime Time” that former Secretary of State Colin Powell died because some Americans were not vaccinated.

With former President Bill Clinton released from the hospital after a serious infection, hospital flamethrower crews have arrived on site to disinfect his hotel room. "This is just our standard procedure whenever Bill Clinton visits a hospital, but we've never seen anything like this," said pyro-disinfection Team Leader Chet Cordray. "He had every infection in the book. Three of our staff got chlamydia just walking into the room." "We have no choice but to torch the entire room before the deadly infections spread and threaten the rest of the world's populations." As soon as he finished speaking, an oozing cluster...

I’m 49, lift weights, run 50+ miles a month, and am currently recovering from post-COVID issues. The initial hit was over for more than a week and a half ago, but COVID was serious enough that it fully-triggered the lung damage I have from Iraq, and now I’m dealing with major upper airway inflammation and a ridiculous Eustachian tube dysfunction (ETD) that doesn’t allow my middle ear ways to pressurize normally. While all of that hasn’t been fun, the worst part was believing for more than a year and a half that I had any real control in preventing COVID...

The agency said that people, even if they’ve been vaccinated, should wear masks for festive activities in public indoor spaces or if they’re spending the holidays with someone who has health risks. “You might choose to wear a mask regardless of the level of transmission if a member of your household has a weakened immune system, is at increased risk for severe disease, or is unvaccinated,” the guidance said.

Florida’s COVID-19 response has been described as reckless, dangerous, and anti-science. Its Republican governor weathered months of scorn for loosening pandemic restrictions ahead of other state leaders. Its case counts, when on the rise, are often cited by critics as evidence that the entire Republican approach to managing the virus has failed. But drops in Florida’s case counts invite a fraction of the attention. New infections per 100,000 residents dropped to 12 over the past week, according to the New York Times coronavirus tracker. Over the past 14 days, cases dropped by 48%. Other states with far more expansive pandemic...

If you thought a religious exemption would prevent everyone from getting fired from their jobs, think again. As the vaxx-nannies push to segregate society completely between the vaxxed and unvaxxed, pesky religious rights are only speed bumps, not roadblocks. The latest victim of medical discrimination comes from Washington State University where head coach Nick Rolovich and four assistants were fired today for not complying. According to The Sun: Rolovich, Washington State’s highest-paid employee who applied for a religious exemption from the vaccine earlier this month, is expected to be replaced with defensive coordinator Jake Dickert as the interim coach, a...

Gov. Polis has really crossed the line. He’s telling children to lie to their parents, get the COVID-19 vaccine, and keep it a secret. Mr. Big Government is also encouraging spouses to get the vaccine and then lie to their partner to keep the peace in the family. We are not aware of divorce spikes over vaccines or an increase of social service reports on parents beating their children for begging to go to the doctor to get a shot. Maybe it’s a problem exclusive to Polis’s circle of friends. We’ve seen two slightly different versions of Polis’s quote last...

The sword, recovered off the coast of Israel, most likely belonged to a knight who fell into the sea or lost the weapon in battle, experts said. Shlomi Katzin attached a GoPro camera to his forehead, slipped on his diving fins and jumped into the waters off the Carmel coast of Israel, eager to go exploring. On the sandy floor of the Mediterranean Sea, he found a sword. Archaeologists would later determine that it was about 900 years old. It weighed four pounds, measured about four feet long and originated from the Third Crusade, experts said. “Oh yes, he was...

CHOWCHILLA, CA – According to reports, at least one female prison inmate at the Central California Women’s Facility has turned up pregnant since the state passed legislation allowing biological men to be housed in biological women’s prison facilities.

VIDEOOkay, not the election you might be thinking of but the point is how is it okay for liberals to claim that elections of the past were stolen and suffer no consequences yet the mere hint that the 2020 election was stolen means you are subject to Social Media punishment and lectured about "THE BIG LIE?" However, it was a bit surprising to hear The Hill Rising's Grim claim that the 1960 election was stolen since it tarnishes the Camelot legacy so beloved by liberals. You will also note that a lot of Democrats, including Hillary Clinton, also claimed that...

Malaysian government didn't want Achmed in the show, so he brought his brother Jacque Merde, a French terrorist (Achmed with a beret and a mustache, and a fake accent).

Conservative radio host Dennis Prager announced Monday that he is recovering from the novel coronavirus, saying that he deliberately sought to contract the virus to acquire natural immunity, instead of getting vaccinated. “I’m broadcasting from my home because I’m not going into the station as I have COVID,” said Mr. Prager on his YouTube show. “I tested positive last week, and I have been steadily improving. At no point was I in danger of hospitalization.”

As a U.S. Senator, Joe Biden was known as a political moderate. When he ran for president in 2020, he portrayed himself as the Democrats' middle-of-the-road candidate -- a man who could work with both sides of the aisle and unite Americans of all political persuasions. However, when being a moderate wasn't helping his chances of winning the nomination, candidate Biden quickly switched horses in midstream, adopting the far-left platform of socialist Bernie Sanders. This move won him the Democrats' nomination and made him beholden to the radical left-wing of the Democrat Party. It also called into question Biden's judgment,...

Virginia Democratic gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe rolled out an ad on Tuesday invoking his response as governor to the 2017 far-right riots in Charlottesville, Va. in his latest effort to tie his GOP opponent Glenn Youngkin to former President Trump. The 60-second ad begins with Trump in 2017 saying there were "very fine people on both sides" of the riots before pivoting to a clip of Youngkin saying he was "honored" to have Trump's endorsement. A clip of McAuliffe's response to the riots is then shown. "I have a message to all the white supremacists and the Nazis that came...

WASHINGTON, Friday, Oct. 18. I telegraphed you yesterday that the rebels had sent away their sick and disabled and baggage from Leesburgh, and that the six regiments yet encamped there were preparing to retire. Information is received to-day that the entire force has been withdrawn, even to the scouts and pickets. Last night their pickets were withdrawn from Vienna, and also from in front of Fairfax Court-house. To-day Gen. WADSWORTH was within a mile of the Court-house and in plain sight. He could see a few companies of infantry and cavalry drawn up in line, but not a large force....

Back in early 2016, when Larry Kudlow and I suggested that then-presidential candidate Donald Trump proposed a 20% business tax rate for U.S. companies (down from the highest in the world rate of 35%), he enthusiastically endorsed this "America First" policy -- not because he loved corporate America but because he realized that as long as small and large American companies were paying the highest tax rates, jobs and factories would continue to move offshore. We argued that the biggest beneficiaries would be American workers who would have access to more jobs and higher wages. The liberal economists we debated...

The totalitarian-minded education establishment and its extreme left-wing allies are starting to freak out as conservatives abandon futile efforts to “reform” government schools in favor of a mass-exodus strategy. Even powerful union bosses are starting to panic. The trend has been building quietly for years. But it has accelerated rapidly in recent months as a trickle of families fleeing the system became a tidal wave amid face-mask edicts, vaccine mandates, Critical Race Theory, Marxist indoctrination, extreme “sex education,” and other controversies. The first major shoe to drop in response came on September 30, when the fringe left-wing magazine New Republic...

PITTSBURGH -- Twenty years ago, Paul Carson said he never would have hesitated to speak out at a school board meeting about any issue affecting his children's education. But one day, that changed. "I just don't do it," Carson told me. A physician who practices medicine in an urban Pittsburgh hospital, Carson said it has nothing to do with his being 20 years older. "It has everything to do with the culture we are navigating." Anyone, he said, can take a video of what you say, edit it to his or her advantage, then post it on social media. Or...
