Even though Republican New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu has yet to announce his run for the U.S. Senate, more voters would vote for him in 2022 than Democrat incumbent Sen. Maggie Hassan, according to a Granite State Poll released on Thursday. The poll, which was conducted by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center, found that 45 percent of likely midterm voters would choose Sununu and 42 percent would vote for Hassan “if the election were held today.” Six percent said they would vote for another candidate and six percent were undecided.

As one might expect from a Democrat, President Biden isn’t afraid to work blue. Politico reported Thursday that Biden — once caught on a hot mic calling the passage of ObamaCare a “big f—ing deal” — regularly uses profanity in meetings with West Wing aides, displaying a particular fondness for “f—.” Variations on the theme, according to the outlet’s West Wing Playbook email newsletter, include the phrases “f— them,” “What the f— are we doing?” and “Why the f— isn’t this happening?”. However, the report adds, Biden never uses the four-letter word as a verb.

Peter Rock wrote the book Leave No Trace that would later be turned into a film. The term is also a Boy Scout motto motivating scouts to leave no evidence of their travels through and camping in our natural environs. Daily we are confronted with the progressive intention of the Biden Administration and its usual media capacitors—to leave no trace, not one, of the many positive things President Trump did during his four years in office. The Biden administration has been full-throttling its attempt to remake America for worse rather than for better and both the deep state and liberal...

An Afghan volleyball player on the girls’ national team was beheaded by the Taliban — with gruesome photos of her severed head posted on social media, according to her coach. Mahjabin Hakimi, one of the best players in the Kabul Municipality Volleyball Club, was slaughtered in the capital city of Kabul as troops searched for female sports players, her coach told the Persian Independent.

Work has begun on an animated film depicting the true story of the cigarette smoking, beer drinking bear which 'fought' alongside soldiers in the Second World War. Adopted as an orphaned cub in 1942 by the 22nd Artillery Division of the Polish 2nd Corps, Wojtek, which in Polish means 'smiling warrior' or 'he who enjoys war', quickly became an adored mascot. He went on to be officially given the rank of Private and learnt to march alongside the troops, salute and even carry cases of ammunition.

It's hard to overstate how bonkers the American left has gone. If conservatives weren't in such a state of disarray, they would be dominating American politics like never before. resident Joe Biden and leading Democrats somehow convinced themselves the 2020 election was a call to fundamentally transform America into a socialist country. They decided countries don't need borders. They decided police and other law enforcement don't deserve the backing of elected politicians. They decided the way to overcome racism is by literally dividing people by race. They have implemented policies to deter American energy production and thereby added to an...

They found one person dead, Hoskinson and another person gravely wounded...

Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-The Moon) made the Democratic position clear Thursday: If you’re not with us, you’re terrorists. During his opening statement for the Attorney General Merrick Garland hearing, Nadler said there was no difference between the rioters who stormed the Capitol on January 6 and parents who are angry about what is being taught in schools. “This growth in extremist ideology is echoed in an epidemic of violence and intimidation directed at our health care professionals, teachers, essential workers, school board members and election workers,” Nadler said. Nadler, a partisan loon who spent the past four years stirring up...

Last week, the State Department learned that twice this summer China had tested a new hypersonic missile weapon with nuclear capabilities. According to the Financial Times, the rocket employed a “fractional orbital bombardment” that also had the guidance ability to “glide” around the earth in orbit. The test reportedly stunned the Biden administration, and comes on the heels of a string of embarrassing global events for the US, including the fall of Afghanistan and Russia opting not to raise natural gas supplies to Europe after the completion of the Nord Stream 2 pipeline. Secretary of State Tony Blinken reacted with...

WASHINGTON, Monday, Oct. 21. The following telegram from Gen. STONE's command has been received at headquarters here: EDWARD's FERRY, Monday, Oct. 21. This morning, at 1 o'clock, five companies of the Fifteenth Massachusetts crossed the river at Harrison's Island. At daybreak, they had proceeded to within a mile and a half of Leesburgh without meeting the enemy. They still hold on, supported by the remainder of the regiment and part of the Twentieth. A gallant reconnoissance was made early this morning, by Major MIX, of the Van Allan Cavalry, and Capt. STEWART, Assistant Adjutant-General, from Edward's Ferry towards Leesburgh, with...

President Joe Biden said police officers and emergency workers who refuse COVID-19 vaccination should stay home or be fired, as he answered questions during a CNN town hall on Thursday evening. 'Yes and yes,' he said to a thunderous round of applause. 'By the way, I waited until July, to talk about mandating, because I tried everything else possible. Mandates are working.' He also ridiculed people who said mandates infringed their freedom. But he also defended his stance on vaccine mandates in uncompromising terms. A series of mandates for federal workers and for companies with more than 100 staff triggered...

“This store loses $25,000 a day to shoplifting,” an SFPD officer told the Globe in lengthy, taped interviews conducted this week. “That’s $25,000 that walks out the door on average between 9 and 6 every day.” (The Globe is redacting the officers’ names because of critical remarks made about Mayor London Breed and District Attorney Chesa Boudin that could potentially endanger their jobs.) “This store does between $80,000 to $120,000 in sales every day. And they lose 25 of it [meaning $25,000]. Even if they’re making 25% profit, the stealing takes that down to zero.” Asked if the presence of...

Digital World Acquisition shares jumped as much as 94% in premarket trading Friday, as investors piled into the special-purpose acquisition company set to take former US President Donald Trump's media startup public. DWAC stock already skyrocketed 357% on Thursday after the SPAC announced it was acquiring Trump Media & Technology Group. The shares closed at $45.50, valuing the vehicle at about $1.5 billion - not far off the prospective $1.7 billion valuation for TMTG highlighted in the press release about the deal. Trump has pitched his startup as a "rival to the liberal media consortium" and an effort to fight...

FBI confirms human remains found identified as Brian Laundrie Right, they just happened to find his body on the first day the reserve opened, and around the area they thought he would be. Oh and it was conveniently underwater before then, and by the time they got to him he was just bones. Also his stuff was still near him after being underwater. This story isn't over yet.

State legislative special elections provide an interesting index of partisan sentiment these days. That wasn't so in the late 20th century, when clever local candidates and notables often got voters to cross party lines. But in this century of increasing partisan polarization and straight-ticket voting, local special elections are a proxy for opinion on national issues. In that light, consider the results of the two special legislative elections that have resulted in a change of parties so far this year. The first was in Connecticut's 36th state Senate district on Aug. 17. This is the richest state Senate district in...

Alec Baldwin fatally shot a cinematographer and injured a director during a tragic accident when a prop gun discharged on the New Mexico movie set of the film “Rust,” authorities said. The filming location at Bonanza Creek Ranch in Sante Fe was sent into lockdown and production was halted following the accidental double shooting at around 2 p.m. “There was an accident today on the New Mexico set of ‘Rust’ involving the misfire of a prop gun with blanks,” a production spokesperson told Deadline. The Western drama’s director of photography, Halyna Hutchins, 42, and its director, Joel Souza, 48, were...

Perhaps I’m slow on the uptake. But somehow I’m just catching on that the latest tactic of the Left in the culture wars is to indoctrinate all the kids from K-20 in the latest insane piece of orthodoxy before letting the outside world, most particularly the parents, know what is going on. So, to use the example of the new racism going by the name “anti-racism” or Critical Race Theory, by the time you find Ibram Kendi’s “How To Be an Antiracist” on the shelf at your local bookstore, your kid has already without your knowledge undergone multiple years of...

More destructive than any specific policy item modern Democrats are pushing this year are the ideas they use to justify their agenda. The $3.5 trillion bill that resident Joe Biden and Democrats are now attempting to cram through Congress via reconciliation is meant to create a European-style cradle-to-grave welfare state here in the United States. Sen. Bernie Sanders, the bill's Senate author, has, for years, praised systems across the Atlantic. As have many other Democrats. There are numerous specific arguments against the agenda that further expands an already onerous bureaucratic state, but it is the idea that traditional American life...

Pray For The Peace of JerusalemIsaiah 37Hezekiah’s Prayer 14 Hezekiah received the letter from the messengers and read it. Then he went up to the temple of the Lord and spread it out before the Lord. 15 And Hezekiah prayed to the Lord: 16 “Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, enthroned between the cherubim, you alone are God over all the kingdoms of the earth. You have made heaven and earth. 17 Give ear, Lord, and hear; open your eyes, Lord, and see; listen to all the words Sennacherib has sent to ridicule the living God. 18 “It is true,...
