Four former Oklahoma County Detention Center inmates allege their civil rights were violated during their time inside the jail in a federal lawsuit Tuesday. Three of the inmates claim they were forced to stand, handcuffed behind the back, for prolonged periods of time while the popular children's song "Baby Shark" played on loop at a loud volume in a nearby room. They claim they experienced the same thing at different times.

When all the votes were counted on Tuesday night, Glenn Youngkin stood triumphant over Clinton flack Terry McAuliffe. McAuliffe touched the third rail- he said parents should have no business knowing what their children were being taught. He said it seven times. His attitude was the same as the Loudoun county school board, which didn't believe parents should know when their children were raped in school. VIRGINIA PARENTS: ENOUGH IS ENOUGH, if these people are willing to cover up the rape of a child to protect a political agenda, these people are willing to do ANYTHING to your children. @RealAmVoice...

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) offered brief insight on Democrat Terry McAuliffe’s loss in Virginia’s gubernatorial race, contending that the results show the “limits” of running a “super moderated campaign” and warning that Democrats should be worried about the midterms if “nothing changes.” “Plus on the election front, I actually think we have good news as well. I know that Virginia was a huge bummer,” she said in an video posted to Instagram on Wednesday.

There is foreign entity looming large in America’s elections. It stands in between U.S. voters casting their ballots and their votes actually being counted. Voting machine companies. The latest example of voting machine malfeasance comes via the New Jersey governor’s race, where one of the closest contests in the nation has been marred by voting anomalies. This includes technical glitches with electronic poll books and reports that voting machines suddenly went down on Election Day. The votes on those machines were not even counted.

Writing in response to Dr Luke Barnes' article on why he no longer believes in young earth creationism, physicist and engineer, Dr Jim Mason shares his own story, and explains why he believes a “plain reading” of Genesis leads to a young earth viewpoint.

On October 30th, People ran a story as part of their ‘Women’s Choices, Women’s Voices’ “stories from abortion-seekers” campaign, featuring the example of a Texas woman named Mariah Armonta, a single mom of three living children, with her youngest being just nine months old. When she took a pregnancy test after missing her period in mid-October, the result confirmed that Armonta was expecting her fourth child. The 25-year-old, who had been back to work for just six months following her nine-month-old daughter’s birth, told People that her initial reaction was panic. She scheduled an appointment at a Texas abortion business...

Belarusian soldiers threatened to open fire on Polish troops just across the border, the Polish Defence Ministry said on Thursday, while Belarus summoned Poland's charge d'affaires amid a row over migrants on their common frontier. Warsaw and the European Union accuse Belarus of deliberately encouraging illegal migrants to enter Poland and other EU states via Belarusian territory as a means to put pressure on the bloc over sanctions. Belarus has repeatedly denied this. Poland has declared a state of emergency in the border region. It has put up a barbed wire fence on the border and plans to build a...

Actress Janet Hubert, famous for her role as “Aunt Viv” on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, was mocked online after suggesting Donald Trump supporters may have somehow given actor Alec Baldwin a loaded weapon on the set of his film Rust before the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins — as revenge for having parodied the former president. On social media last Wednesday, Hubert shared her conspiracy theory — providing no evidence to support it — which accuses “Trumpers” of getting revenge on Baldwin for having mocked the former president by handing him a loaded gun on his film set....

"My administration is 100-percent committed to eradicating human trafficking from the Earth." - President Trump There was a war against sex trafficking and child predators going on during the last administration that the mainstream media largely ignored. In fact, President Trump accomplished more to stop human traffickers and persecute pedophiles than any past President and probably anyone in history. Trump tweeted this in 2012: (see) A few years later he’s elected President and immediately signs two Executive Orders to unleash the Justice Dept. on child traffickers and pedophiles and seize their property. “This is an urgent humanitarian issue. My administration...

Republicans immediately announced legal action on Thursday against Joe Biden's vaccine mandate after details were released of the new rule, which affects more than 80 million workers at private companies and federal contractors. 'Joe Biden failed to shut down the virus like he promised – he couldn't do his job, so now he wants you to lose yours,' Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel wrote in a statement regarding the new rule. 'While I am pro-vaccine, the Biden administration does not have the authority to force hardworking Americans to choose between being vaccinated and providing for their families,' McDaniel continued....

Two months after the Pentagon began requiring all troops to get the coronavirus vaccine or face dismissal, the vast majority have now had shots, in part because none received a religious exemption, military officials said. https://t.co/3zpPg5hpG6 — NYT Politics (@nytpolitics) November 4, 2021 Troops who refuse the coronavirus vaccine won’t see any extra protections or leniency in how their dismissals are handled, Defense and Veterans Affairs officials confirmed Wednesday. Instead, decisions on whether to give those individuals other-than-honorable discharges — potentially blocking them from a host of veterans benefits — will be left to local commanders, and their cases won’t...

Biden speaks to Murphy, McAuliffe following gubernatorial elections © UPI Photo President Biden on Wednesday phoned Phil Murphy, Eric Adams and Shontel Brown to congratulate all three Democrats on their victories in Tuesday’s off-year elections, a White House official said Thursday. Murphy won a surprisingly tight race to keep his position as governor of New Jersey. Adams was elected mayor of New York and Brown was elected to represent Ohio’s 11th congressional district, a seat vacated by Marcia Fudge, who is now Biden’s secretary of Housing and Urban Development. “He congratulated them on their victories this week and committed to...

In an animated exchange during a Senate hearing Thursday, Republican Senator Rand Paul grilled Dr. Fauci on his repeated claims that the NIH did not fund gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Paul cited the NIH’s recent admission that it funded experiments in Wuhan designed to make a naturally occurring bat coronavirus more dangerous, and accused Fauci of playing semantic games with the definition of “gain of function” research to avoid admitting that he lied in his previous appearances before the committee. “Your persistent denials… are not simply a stain in your reputation but a clear and present...

The much-hyped “Indiana Jones” sequel’s trouble-plagued production just took a darker turn — as a crew member has reportedly died on location in Morocco. “Indiana Jones 5” camera department pro Nic Cupac was found dead in his hotel room in the city of Fes, Walt Disney Studios confirmed to The Post on Thursday. “Our hearts go out to the family and friends of Nic Cupac, an incredibly talented colleague and member of the film community who will be greatly missed,” a rep for the production told The Post. “His sudden passing was not production related. Nic was a grip on...

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen defended the Biden Administration's multi-trillion dollar spending spree, saying "it will help tamp down inflation. Inflation is caused by too much private sector spending. Increased government spending will siphon money out of the private sector by first driving up the cost of consumer goods making them too expensive to purchase. This will force consumers to cut back on their spending." "Second, the efficiencies stimulated by the build back better plan will start to kick in as people switch from their selfish attitudes toward how they spend their own money toward a more public-spirited willingness to sacrifice...

BEIJING — About half the flights to and from Beijing’s two airports were canceled Tuesday as the capital tightened travel restrictions after a trickle of new cases in the city and other parts of the country in the last few days. That’s according to aviation industry data site VariFlight, which tracks about 800 to 1,000 flights each for Beijing Capital International Airport and Beijing Daxing International Airport. China has a strict “zero tolerance” policy for controlling the coronavirus. Local authorities, especially in the capital city, are on high alert after a handful of locally transmitted coronavirus cases over the weekend...

Meghan Markle was blasted Thursday after it emerged she has been cold-calling US senators on their private numbers — and using her royal title while lobbying them about the disastrous $3.5 trillion spending bill. The exiled UK royal — long rumored to have her eyes on the White House — startled the GOP lawmakers when she unexpectedly called them to lobby for federal paid parental leave as part of President Biden’s divisive proposals, they told Politico. Sen. Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV) said she was driving when a call came from a blocked number, which she assumed to be Democratic holdout...

A newly revealed text message from French President Emmanuel Macron indicated he knew a multibillion-dollar submarine deal with Australia was on the rocks days before the Land Down Under announced a nuclear sub pact with the US and the UK. That message seemed to call into question the Paris government’s assertions that it had been blindsided by the new agreement.A report by the Australian Financial Review also suggests that Macron played up the rift between the US and its oldest ally to extract a groveling statement of contrition from the American president at last week’s G20 summit in Rome.
