WASHINGTON, Thursday, Oct. 31. NEWS FROM CENTREVILLE. Yesterday Gen. BUTTERFIELD dispatched Brig ade-Quartermaster NORTON with ten wagons and an escort of the New-York Forty-fourth to Shreve's Farm, four miles northwest of Fall's Church and west of the Leesburgh Pike, to obtain forage. A short distance north of Fall's Church they captured a rebel picket, who had left his post to forage for whisky. Capt. NORTON at once sent him to headquarters, though he learned from the prisoner that the rebel pickets were stationed not far back of SHREVE's place. Capt. NORTON judiciously posted his men to repel an attack, but...

Overview Experiments using ultrasound in various fluid compositions and using various witness materials to see if potential transmutations seen in other experiments could be replicated at a very simple and affordable level. 2. Context Ultrasound has been shown to cause synthesis of elements in a range of experiments, such as those conducted by Roger Stringham, LeClaire et. al., Tom Claytor, Cardone and Shuhas Ralkar....

As Barack Obama might say: Never underestimate Joe’s ability to fox things up. In January 2020 BC (Before COVID) the American economy was running like a well-oiled machine and enjoying growth rates not seen in years. Unemployment for black people was at all-time lows. Inflation remained a non-issue. And America had once again become energy independent, after decades of shortages and wars linked to her reliance on imported oil. To look successful, all Joe Biden needed to do upon being handed the presidency was to emerge from his basement, fiddle with a few dials to look busy, and simply ride...

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn’s 1978 indictment of America’s moral and cultural problems was prophetic and rings even truer today. “Not everything has a name. Some things lead us into a realm beyond words.” Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn. (1918-2008) For even the most devoted Wokesters in America today—whether true believers or camp followers—all know America is in a realm beyond words. It resembles the type of heightened exhilaration before one hits the ground in the instant agony of sure death. A Thelma and Louise moment. At such a time, and before our nation hits the ground, we may want to re-visit a complicated writer, loyal...

Some historical photos can't be explained. The more we look at them, the more disturbing and unexplainable they become. There's something so eerie about these beautiful photos, and it only takes a closer look to unveil the truth. You won't find these rare historical photos in books or museums. Our ancestors had done an excellent job at hiding the hard-to-swallow past from us. We've collected a rare collection of the most chilling historical photos ever that will send shivers down your spine. Please beware that some of the images in this gallery are for mature audiences only. Are you ready...

The Tennessee Republican Party, nicknamed the “party of Lincoln,” passed away last Thursday as it was being carted between state House and Senate committee hearing rooms. A full historical autopsy won’t be carried out for 50 years. snip The GOP, as it was also sometimes called, was born in the mid-1960s with the influx of Tennessee Democrats, particularly in and around Memphis, who were disaffected by President Lyndon Johnson’s embrace of the civil rights movement. Observers saw this as an early indication of the chronic diseases that would plague the GOP in its later years. However, the election of Sen....

So far, in only nine months, the Biden war machine has inflicted almost incomprehensible damage on the American people. Unbelievable. That's really the only way to describe the never-ending onslaught of bad news and incredible occurrences that are exploding in our daily lives. Just when you think it couldn't get any worse, that they can't be serious, that it seems as if the "Biden" administration's sole goal is to make each person's life as wretchedly painful as possible, BAM! — another incredible misery warhead detonates on our reality. So far, in only nine months, the Biden war machine has inflicted...

Source: Photo/PrincessBlanding.comImagine you are a hardcore liberal Democrat or independent in Virginia. Voting for the buoyant Glenn Youngkin is a non-starter. He’s a Republican, a conservative, and a multi-millionaire who made his fortune as a 25-year executive at the Carlyle Group, a private-equity house. Youngkin served as Carlyle’s co-CEO. “Vote for a CEO in finance? Not bloody likely!” you might think. And then there’s Terry McAuliffe. Yes, he’s a Democrat, but Smarmy is his middle name. He spent much of his career as the bag man for the Clinton crime family. He oozes shadiness. And then there’s his goofy dance,...

Americans’ opinions on the U.S. economy have soured noticeably in the past month, a new poll finds, with nearly half expecting economic conditions to worsen in the next year. Just 35% of Americans now call the national economy good, while 65% call it poor, according to a poll by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research. That’s a dip since September, when 45% of Americans called the economy good, and a return to about where views of the nation’s economy stood in January and February, when the pandemic was raging across the nation. The poll shows a majority of...

On Sunday, a shocking new NBC Newspollwas announced by Chuck Todd, anchor ofMeet the Press.It showed that 71% of Americans believe the country is on the “wrong track” and only 22% believe it is moving in the right direction. These are horrible numbers for the Biden administration and Democrats who control both Congress and the White House. The NBC newspollalso showed that Republicans were trusted over Democrats by more than double digit margins in a wide range of areas such as handling the economy, inflation, crime, national security, border security, and “getting things done.” These results reflect the reality of...

I think we can all agree that it’s been a rough past 12 months? A year ago on election day, Donald Trump supporters went to bed with solid leads in key states, hopeful of another presidential victory that would have somewhat held the leftist tide at bay for four more years. We woke up only to watch those leads slip away in a tsunami of mail-in ballots and suspicious vote counts in just enough places to deliver a ‘victory’ to Joe Biden. A few months later, the unfortunate events of January 6 - one day after Democrats took back the...

The Lepanto Institute released a new video report, exposing the celebration and promotion of militant communists in a Vatican event initiated by Pope Francis. The report focuses on the organizations and speakers that were celebrated in a video produced by the Vatican for the fourth annual World Meeting of Popular Movements (WMPM). According to the WMPM website, the purpose of the meeting "is to create an 'encounter' between Church leadership and grassroots organizations working to address the 'economy of exclusion and inequality' by working for structural changes that promote social, economic and racial justice." But many of the organizations participating...

Joe Biden has been caught red handed with what appears to be a detailed pre-approved list of reporters he’s allowed to call upon while taking questions after the G20 summit in Rome. The president has been known to only call upon reporters his team pre-approved, however today’s press conference showed images of the list with photos of the reporters. He told the media “I’m happy to take some questions” and then grabbed his list and said he’s been “told to start with AP, Zeke Miller.” President Biden has copped intense backlash for failing to front the media by either walking...

The cities are devolving into chaos, and perhaps that’s good – people too dumb to learn from experience or from those who know better have to learn from something, and if that’s pain, well, pain’s a great teacher. In Philadelphia, some troubled youth who was illegally in this country, but had been let go on previous occasions post-interaction with the local gendarmes, decided to woo a local woman he met on a train the old-fashioned way, by threats and violence. The other passengers reacted as one might expect in a Democrat-run metropolis, and whipped out their iPhones to record the...

Democrats have screwed up everything — stop voting for them! Effective immediately, Americans can take a concrete step to save this country: Stop voting Democratic. From the West Wing to the West Coast, the Democratic Party has devolved into a clear and present danger to this republic. It is virtually impossible to identify a realm in which Democrats are wreaking anything but havoc, division and devastation.

If you’ve watched Virginia gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe lately, you may be guessing that he’s a pretty mean-spirited, self-centered, short-tempered jerk, who never should be allowed anywhere near political power. Now, you don’t need to guess. In a 2007 autobiography, McAuliffe freely admitted facts showing that he is quite possibly the most selfish, self-centered, unkind man in America. In the years leading up to 2007, McAuliffe was a massively successful real estate investor and home developer. Starting in 2009, he began to invest in “green” auto technology. He ended up being investigated for visa fraud in connection with 32 wealthy...

Thirty years ago, I was hiking alone on a section of the Appalachian Trail known as "Rocky Top" when I encountered two stocky young men. The thought occurred to me that they could easily kill me, toss my body in the brush, and get away scot-free. Whether the thought occurred to either of them, I will never know. I passed them by with a brief nod and moved on quickly to the turn-off leading to my parked car. But I remained troubled, and remain so today, by the fact that I had been so completely at risk. I had been...

Cynics smile before they say, "Perception is reality." What we see must be true because we see it! If we don't see it, then it cannot be real. Anyone who has ever used Photoshop knows that "seeing is believing" is false, just as misleading as expecting politicians to do what they promise. The mainstream (complicit) media are the worst offenders. They believe they control reality by determining what the public sees or doesn't see. In a recent Wall Street Journal op-ed, Daniel Henninger wrote that Democrats offer the public "alternative realities," AKA lies, as accurate and true. Mainstream media such...
