It looks like The Washington Post may run into a conflict of interest problem the next time it fawns over former President Barack Obama’s allegedly “chiseled pectorals.” The Obama Foundation released a statement saying that leftist Post owner and mega-billionaire Jeff Bezos was donating a whopping $100 million “in honor of CongressmanJohn Lewis” (D-GA), who recently passed away. The Foundation called the donation "the largest individual contribution received to date." The purpose of the grant includes “help[ing] expand the scope of programming that reaches emerging leaders in the United States and around the world.” But this could present an issue...

Strong antibody responses against harmless coronaviruses also partially protect against SARS-CoV-2. Infections with the novel coronavirus and vaccination lead to strong antibody responses against SARS-CoV-2. Immune responses to other human coronaviruses, which mostly only cause harmless colds, also provide some protection against SARS-CoV-2. This cross-reactive immune response is an important piece of the puzzle of how to achieve comprehensive coronavirus immunity, researchers at the University of Zurich have shown. The population’s immunity to SARS-CoV-2, achieved either through infection or vaccination, is crucial to overcome the COVID-19 pandemic. A team of researchers led by the University of Zurich (UZH) has now...

Yesterday 5 people were killed and at least 48 were injured in Waukesha, Wisconsin, when they were struck by an SUV blowing through a Christmas parade. The suspect is one Darrell Brooks, aka MathBoi Fly. Brooks has a long criminal record. In a case filed in July 2020, Brooks is accused of getting in a fight in a backyard and then taking out a gun and firing a shot at two people who were about to drive away. The victim had to accelerate to get away and avoid being shot, according to the criminal complaint. Brooks was charged in that...

Three suspects were arrested after looters stormed a Nordstrom store in Los Angeles on Monday night, stealing an unknown amount of merchandise. Twenty looters struck the Nordstrom store at The Grove, a high-end shopping mall, shortly before 11 p.m., according to CBS Los Angeles. Authorities said the individuals smashed the windows with a sledgehammer before entering. The suspects fled in four vehicles, with police engaging in a pursuit with one of the cars and later arresting three of the people after they attempted to flee on foot.

The launch readiness date for the James Webb Space Telescope is moving to no earlier than December 22 to allow for additional testing of the observatory, following a recent incident that occurred during Webb’s launch preparations. The incident occurred during operations at the satellite preparation facility in Kourou, French Guiana, performed under Arianespace overall responsibility. Technicians were preparing to attach Webb to the launch vehicle adapter, which is used to integrate the observatory with the upper stage of the Ariane 5 rocket. A sudden, unplanned release of a clamp band – which secures Webb to the launch vehicle adapter –...

President Joe Biden reached a grim milestone this week that most of his allies in the leftist media are ignoring. According to new data compiled by Johns Hopkins University, there have been more deaths from Wuhan coronavirus in the U.S. this year than in 2020 when President Donald Trump was president. "The number of U.S. Covid-19 deaths recorded in 2021 has surpassed the toll in 2020, according to federal data and Johns Hopkins University, demonstrating the virus’s persistent menace," the Wall Street Journal reports. "The total number of reported deaths linked to the disease topped 770,800 on Saturday, Johns Hopkins...

After a harrowing passage across the Atlantic—one that included wild pitching and broadside batterings by gale-force winds and ferocious seas that caused the splitting of the ship’s main beam—the Mayflower was blown off course from the intended destination of the established Virginia Colony territory to wilds of Cape Cod. The Pilgrims knew not where they were nor how to proceed, so they beseeched the Almighty for favor in a making landfall in a suitable place with fresh water and fertile soil to establish a new and independent settlement. Now in sight of land after a frightening voyage and facing hunger...

Joe Biden announced that he will tap into the U.S. Strategic Oil Reserve in order to lower the price of gasoline — this after deliberately cutting production by shutting down pipelines and refusing to grant drilling permits in Alaska and the Gulf of Mexico.It’s unknown how Biden can promote his climate agenda while increasing fossil fuel production. Environmental activists are puzzled — and angry.Washington Post:“There is a huge contradiction right now in their actions,” said Jean Su, who directs the Energy Justice Program at the Center for Biological Diversity, which has sued to stop the oil rights auction. “It’s really...

Jurors in the Ahmaud Arbery slay case started deliberating Tuesday over the fate of the three white men accused of killing the black unarmed jogger in Georgia last year. Gregory McMichael, 65, his son Travis McMichael, 35, and their neighbor William “Roddie” Bryan, 52, are charged with murder, aggravated assault and other crimes in the shooting death of Arbery, 25, who they suspected was fleeing a burglary as he ran through their neighborhood near Brunswick. Superior Court Judge Timothy Walmsley told the jurors Tuesday, “It is your duty to consider the facts objectively without favor, affection, or sympathy to anyone.”...

A weird quantum effect that was predicted decades ago has finally been demonstrated – if you make a cloud of gas cold and dense enough, you can make it invisible. Scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) used lasers to squeeze and cool lithium gas to densities and temperatures low enough that it scattered less light. If they can cool the cloud even closer to absolute zero (minus 459.67 degrees Fahrenheit, or minus 273.15 degrees Celsius), they say it will become completely invisible. The bizarre effect is the first ever specific example of a quantum mechanical process called Pauli...

A 5-year-old boy found dead in Massachusetts had fentanyl in his system and succumbed to “violence and neglect,” authorities said. The death of Elijah Lewis, of Merrimack, NH, was ruled a homicide, the New Hampshire Attorney General’s Office announced Monday. “The cause of Elijah’s death was determined to be violence and neglect, including facial and scalp injuries, acute fentanyl intoxication, malnourishment and pressure ulcers,” the statement read.

It’s been just over seven months since radio legend Rush Limbaugh died - and eight since signing off for his final show on February 2, 2021. Radio personalities come and go, sometimes quietly and even mysteriously. At times, station managers invoke soviet-era tactics, surreptitiously making talent changes overnight. It’s the nature of the business, not wanting to promote another station or call attention to a departing personality. One day a host is advertising a local car dealership, the next day they’re gone. Explanations are rarely given – they’re into the ether and out of our lives. But not Rush. A...

This year hasn’t been easy. As the pandemic has dragged on, Americans have continued to face adversity in almost every aspect of their lives. People continue to suffer from COVID-19; many of us have lost loved ones. And now our country is facing sky-high inflation and a supply chain disaster, both of which threaten to make the holidays more expensive and more frustrating than ever before. That all makes Thanksgiving a little bit more difficult than usual. Every year, Americans get together with family and friends to celebrate and give thanks. But do many of us really feel gratitude for...

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) brushed off speculation that former President Trump could become the next Speaker of the House if Republicans take back control of the lower chamber next year. "I just don't think that'll ultimately happen," Christie told Julie Mason on Sirius XM's "Julie Mason Mornings" when asked about speculation Trump would come back to Washington to be Speaker, an idea floated recently by Trump's former chief of staff Mark Meadows. "I think that's one of the things that the media likes to write about," Christie continued. "It's like a brokered convention. Every four years the...

The Waukesha District Attorney whose office let out parade killer Darrell Brooks on a $1,000 bond three weeks ago previously admitted he knew his laxed bail reform would lead to killers being set free and murdering others, saying flippantly in a 2007 interview: 'You bet, it's guaranteed to happen.' John Chisolm was elected as Milwaukee County District Attorney in 2007 and he immediately started advocating for lower cash bonds for criminals, like Brooks - a felon with a history of domestic violence charges who was most recently locked up for running over the mother of his children. In 2007, Chisolm...
