At least that's what former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, a Hawaii Democrat, said Wednesday. Gabbard was responding to a question about whether Biden has changed since his 2020 presidential campaign. "You know, I’ve considered Joe Biden a friend for many years, and I’ve been disheartened to see the direction that he’s taken in this administration, that is undermining the fundamental principles of our country, that is actually tearing our country apart, rather than working to bring us together to find our way forward and have respectful dialogue, even as we may have disagreements or differences on different issues, but come together...

Media malpractice has come full circle in Kenosha, Wis. ... From the start, the media misrepresented the Blake case and ensuing riots. They portrayed Blake as an unarmed man who just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, subjected to police brutality due to racism. The truth was far different. After an intensive investigation, prosecutors declared Blake’s shooting a justifiable use of force. The federal Justice Department reached the same conclusion. ... As with the Black Lives Matter riots in Minneapolis and beyond, the mainstream media incessantly focused away from the violence, despite almost 20 related...

Houthi rebels have stormed the American embassy in Yemen and taken hostages, the Washington Free Beacon reported Thursday. State Department officials told the Free Beacon that “the majority of the detained have been released, but the Houthis continue to detain additional Yemeni employees of the embassy.” Houthi fighters reportedly took the compound on Wednesday, demanding “large quantities of equipment and materials,” per the Middle East Media Research Institute. Yemen has been embroiled in a brutal civil war between the Houthi rebels — who are backed, financed, and armed by the Iranian government —and the standing Yemeni government, which has the...

Rockfish is on the menu around the Pacific Rim, for the most part with little regard for the fish's origin or which of the 137 species is on the plate—it's typically identified simply as rockfish or, incorrectly, as rock cod or red snapper. But this seemingly anonymous fish—among the longest-lived vertebrates on Earth—holds clues to the genes that determine lifespan and the pluses and minuses of living longer. In a study appearing this week in the journal Science, biologists at the University of California, Berkeley, compare the genomes of nearly two-thirds of the known species of rockfish that inhabit coastal...

Internal documents released Thursday confirm that the National School Boards Association coordinated with the White House before formally sending a letter to the Biden administration requesting federal intervention to probe and potentially prosecute parents for threatening school administrators. In an October 12 memo , obtained by the nonprofit Parents Defending Education, NSBA president Viola Garcia stated that the organization had been “actively engaged” with federal departments including the White House, Department of Justice, Department of Homeland Security, before sending their letter to the president. Chip Slaven, NSBA’s interim executive director, wrote in a September 29 email that the letter, which...

Family Research Council President Tony Perkins rebuked the Republican National Committee (RNC) and its chairwoman, Ronna McDaniel, for forming a "Pride Coalition" with the LGBT Log Cabin Republicans on Saturday, stating that the LGBT agenda is "incompatible with religious freedom and parental rights." If the Republican Party continues down this path, warned Perkins, it will "become a Democrat-lite party," and lose votes from Christians and social conservatives. He added that McDaniel apparently took this step "on her own," without consulting with some RNC leaders, and "she needs to step down." The new RNC Pride Coalition was announced at Mar-a-Lago on...

About a month ago the Walmart site went haywire. Can't see half of it at all, can't order anything. Admittedly I'm a dinosaur, running XT-Pro, but no other sites I order from are broken like this. Being mobility handicapped, online ordering is very important for me. Not to mention that the nearest store is an hour away, and last time I was there it was OOS on over half the items on my list. Anybody know anything?

Former Hawaii Congresswoman and 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard has never been one to shy away from wading into hot button topics and angering “her side” in the process, and the Kyle Rittenhouse case has been no exception.As we’ve previously reported, the prosecution in the closely-watched trial has done themselves zero favors over the last few days, suffering serious setbacks such as Judge Bruce Schroeder repeatedly admonishing them over their courtroom antics, with inarguably the biggest setback being that one of the prosecution’s star witnesses admitted on the stand that Rittenhouse only shot at him after he (the witness)...

This involves the contentious topic of natural immunity from COVID-19, which is essentially treated as non-existent by the federal government and its policies. In a remarkable admission, the CDC wrote in a letter that it does not have a single case on record of someone naturally immune to COVID-19 spreading the virus.The CDC admits that it has no documentation of an unvaccinated Covid recovered person spreading Covid.pic.twitter.com/sYyvMJjhoE— Eli Klein (@TheEliKlein) November 11, 2021Now, it would be easy to fall into the trap of thinking this means something it doesn’t technically mean, and I’m sure the “fact-checkers” are frothing at the...

Welp, one more reason I won’t be moving to Los Angeles anytime soon. Street robberies have gotten so out of control in parts of the city that the LAPD has issued a “follow-home robberies” alert: If you’ve been out shopping, having dinner with friends, or grabbing a few beers with your buds, and a bad guy follows you home to steal your stuff?

Most investors expect stocks to slump as rates rise.This assumption makes sense… As I covered yesterday, higher rates mean stocks will face more competition from other assets, like bonds. That means less demand, and lower prices.But what if I told you this story doesn’t play out exactly like you’d expect?Stocks will crash as a result of rising rates… eventually. But the “eventually” is the important part.Today, I’ll show you how things have gone in the past, and what it means for the rate-hiking cycles we’re about to see play out.Folks think that the first hint of higher rates is a...
