Texas Democratic gubernatorial candidate Beto O'Rourke raised $2 million dollars in the first 24 hours of his bid, his campaign told the Texas Tribune. The former congressman has previously reported impressive fundraising numbers in unsuccessful bids for the Senate and the White House, leaving some asking if this race is any different. The O'Rourke campaign called the sum a record "for any Democratic gubernatorial candidate for the first 24 hours" of a campaign and the most raised in the "first 24 hours of any campaign in 2021." But O'Rourke’s reputation as a fundraising powerhouse doesn’t make his candidacy any less...

Isobel Frodsham Fri., November 26, 2021, 10:34 a.m.·3 min read Watch: South Africa angered by travel restrictions due to new variant Scroll back up to restore default view. The chairwoman of the South African Medical Association has described the travel restrictions imposed on the country as “hasty” and the reaction from other countries as “a storm in a teacup”. Dr Angelique Coetzee said it was too early to tell what impact the B.1.1.529 variant would have. She told BBC News: “We think it is a premature decision that has been taken, I think it is a hasty decision. “I would...

CAPE TOWN, South Africa (AP) — Golf, cricket and rugby became the first major sports to be affected by the new COVID-19 variant on Friday, prompting fears of renewed travel restrictions and disrupted events just as they were returning to normal nearly two years into the pandemic. European golfers withdrew midway through the season-opening DP World Tour tournament in Johannesburg and were scrambling to catch flights out of South Africa. Visiting cricket and rugby teams were doing the same. Golf was the first to be hit by the emergence of the new B.1.1.529 variant that was initially identified in South...

A walrus the size of a fridge was spotted ‘chilling’ on the Northumberland coast this morning – but is it Wally? The wandering walrus has ventured from the North Atlantic ocean to Ireland, Wales, Cornwall, France and the Isles of Scilly. He was last seen in Iceland in September when marine experts identified his scars on his front flippers. The 800kg titan has proven to be a bit of a vandal – causing thousands of pounds worth of damage to boats across the UK.

A world-renowned cardiology expert warned of a link between the hastily developed COVID-19 injections and heart disease. He said on UK television that cardiology researchers have found evidence to support this, but are too afraid of losing money from the drug companies to publish the proof.Speaking to GB News’ Alex Phillips, Dr. Aseem Malhotra referenced a recent publication by cardiac surgeon Stephen Gundry, noting that COVID-19 injections “dramatically increase” inflammation of blood vessels, heart muscles, and “may account for the observations of increased thrombosis, cardiomyopathy, and other vascular events.”Gundry’s paper revealed that following the mRNA COVID injections, the chance of...

Guest post by Bill HennessyNu COVID Variant Found ONLY in Fully VaccinatedAll four Botswana Nu variant patients were fully vaccinatedThe “Nu” variant of COVID arrived just in time to ruin Christmas. (Who didn’t see this coming?) The variant with “more mutations than you shake a spike protein at” was first identified in Botswana and quickly became the most prevalent variant in South Africa. But before you succumb to “pandemic of the unvaccinated” nonsense, consider this:From the President of Botswana, where the variant was first discovered:The preliminary report revealed all four [patients] had been previously vaccinated for COVID-19.Here’s the letter:Please bookmark...

[Defiance, Ohio] Sixty hours of work today had nearly cleared the Baltimore & Ohio and the Wabash tracks at the junction in the west yards here of debris from 26 cars smashed and piled up in a $300,000 freight train wreck, caused by a stalled automobile worth $300. C.T. Williams, B&O division superintendent, said at noon today that the main east bound track would be back in service by 4 o’clock this afternoon but that some time will elapse before the west bound main track, requiring materials from railroad shops, is restored. Three railroad cranes, the city’s power shovel, and...

We came across Ferdinand Kuhn way before we came across his 1957 book, "The Story of the Secret Service." Absent his Deep State bonafides, we would not have had the motivation to look at the book from the perspective of an assassination planner. The book is written for kids age 10 to 14. Nevertheless, it does have some information about the Secret Service that was probably not well know to the public prior to the JFK Assassination. The FBI file on Maria DeBlasio was assembled in Spring/Summer 1953 as part of the broad look at Communist infiltration within the...

DURHAM, N.C. — Authorities were called for reports of shots fired at The Streets at Southpoint Mall in Durham on Friday afternoon. The mall was locked down as law enforcement responded to the situation.

The Biden administration is seeking to radically narrow the boundaries of respectable American political thought. The administration has repeatedly issued statements and reports that could automatically castigate citizens who distrust the federal government. We may eventually learn that the new Biden guidelines spurred a vast increase in federal surveillance and other abuses against Americans who were guilty of nothing more than vigorous skepticism. Biden is Nixon on steroids The Biden team is expanding the federal Enemies List perhaps faster than any time since the Nixon administration. In June, the Biden administration asserted that guys who are unable to score with...

The Beatles attempted to make a big-screen adaption of "Lord of The Rings" in 1968, but the band was denied rights to the fantasy books by J.R.R. Tolkien, according to filmmaker Peter Jackson. Jackson — who is best known for his sprawling trilogy based on Tolkien's "Lord of The Rings" series — is currently on the press run for his latest work "The Beatles: Get Back," a docuseries crafted from footage of the band recording their last album, "Let It Be," when he told the BBC that he had discovered the fab four had been keen on adapting Tolkien. "I've...

Next week’s anniversary of the historic United Nations Partition Plan of November 29, 1947 (Resolution 181) should not only remind us that Palestinian rejectionism prevented the birth of a Palestinian state alongside Israel, but also that those who today advocate an uncompromising militancy are hawking the same damaged goods that have failed the Palestinians so miserably.

The federal government plans to send 44 military medical workers to Michigan to assist hospitals treating coronavirus patients during a fourth surge that has become the worst in the nation, according to state health officials. “It also will open beds at the Veterans Affairs hospital in Detroit for transfers. Gov. Gretchen Whitmer sought the assistance at the request of the Michigan Health & Hospital Association,” the Associated Press (AP) reported Wednesday.

President Biden has imposed another coronavirus-related travel ban just hours after one of his top advisers cautioned that the U.S. didn't have enough information to do so.

CNBC anchor Jim Cramer on Friday reacted to the market sell-off over concerns of a new coronavirus variant. According to Cramer, Friday’s decline for stocks is not the right time to buy with the market uncertainty.

Imperial College yet again panics the masses. What a small world we live in. The “Nu variant” scare you keep hearing about is coming from the same people and institutions that spawned the last COVID scare, and the one before that, and the one before that one, dating back all the way to the onset of COVID Mania. [Update: the World Health Organization has now labeled this strain the “Omicron variant,” in noticeably skipping over “Xi” in the greek alphabet] The corporate press and world governments have produced an incredible amount of noise about a claimed new COVID variant, the...

Ho ho, no … Cuo! CNN anchor Chris Cuomo did some wreath shopping after trashing Christmas in a Thanksgiving rant about holidays and cancel culture pushed by “woke folks.” Cuomo, spotted Thursday loading some wreaths into his car’s trunk in Amagansett, had said earlier on his Sirius radio podcast that Thanksgiving was his favorite holiday, though he fumed that “woke people” are ruining it for him — and that Dec. 25 isn’t one of his faves.

"Trials and justice have ceased to be about individual justice," famed law professor says. "They're about identity politics." Alan Dershowitz, the famed law scholar and appellate lawyer, has a stark warning for judges, prosecutors and defense lawyers: America's justice system is being corrupted by identity politics and critical race theory. In an interview with Just the News, Dershowitz deplored the growing trend in recent criminal cases toward political agendas supplanting the neutral consideration of evidence and law that has been the lifeblood of U.S. jurisprudence for more than two centuries. "It's becoming much more responsive, unfortunately, to critical race theory,...
