Maynor has an extensive criminal record dating back to 2013 and has served time for robbery and grand theft, TMZ reported. Maynor was on parole at the time of the alleged...

Former Democratic National Committee chairman Howard Dean said Thursday on MSNBC’s “The Beat” that Republicans who refuse to get vaccinated against COVID-19 were “disgusting.” Dean said when asked about reports that former President Donald Trump tested positive for COVID a few days before the first presidential debate in 2020, “Look, Trump was the most immoral and irresponsible president in the history of the country. He may or may not be the worst president, but he certainly is in contention. But he was certainly the one with the fewest morals and scruples and certainly the craziest in terms of psychiatric illness....

Rorate is pleased to present a translation of the Paix Liturgique Letter 837, with permission of Christian Marquant. The Roadmap of Archbishop Roche: Liquidate the Traditional Liturgy!(Paix Liturgique Letter 837 in French)The future Cardinal Arthur Roche is a key figure in the project to destroy the traditional liturgy.

A prosecutor on Thursday repeated her criticism of the parents of a boy who is accused of killing four students at a Michigan school, saying their actions went “far beyond negligence” and that a charging decision would come by Friday. “The parents were the only individuals in the position to know the access to weapons,” Oakland County prosecutor Karen McDonald said. The gun “seems to have been just freely available to that individual.” Ethan Crumbley, 15, has been charged as an adult with two dozen crimes, including murder, attempted murder and terrorism, for a shooting Tuesday at Oxford High School...

And it came to pass after these things, that Naboth the Jezreelite had a vineyard, which was in Jezreel, hard by the palace of Ahab king of Samaria. And Ahab spake unto Naboth, saying, Give me thy vineyard, that I may have it for a garden of herbs, because it is near unto my house: and I will give thee for it a better vineyard than it; or, if it seem good to thee, I will give thee the worth of it in money. And Naboth said to Ahab, The Lord forbid it me, that I should give the inheritance...

Tucker Carlson's interview of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr is absolutely stunning. Blew me away. Must see this. It's best watched, perhaps, on Fox Nation because of Kennedy's speech impediment. (It might be clearer on a high quality sound system over your TV, and you can get closed captioning). But here's a link: https://www.bitchute.com/video/5B9aY7XM3jRs/

Honolulu (HawaiiNewsNow) -- A Hawaii lab has detected a petroleum product in a water sample collected from the Pearl Harbor-Hickam system -- a worrisome finding that comes as the investigation into the source of the fuel-like odor and oily sheen from the water continues. It’s the first confirmation of what military households and other impacted residents have been reporting for days: That their water smells like fuel and has made them sick. But the results also raise more questions, including how much petroleum is present and what kind it is. Environmental Health Deputy Director Kathleen Ho stressed the results are...

Meanwhile, the FDA still has to comply with the original order to begin turning over documents. Lo and behold, the first release is a bombshell. According to an official Pfizer document that is titled Cumulative Analysis of Post-Authorization Adverse Event Records Reports, in just the first 90 days of the vaccine’s roll out under the FDA’s EUA – from December 1st. 2020 – February 28th, 2021 – there were TENS OF THOUSANDS of reported adverse reactions, including OVER 1200 DEATHS. The report only included adverse events to the vaccine that researchers considered “serious cases,” there were thousands more submissions that...

Leave it to a no-nonsense Texan like Rep. Chip Roy to lay out the basic issue confronting Congress — and especially Republican members of the Senate and House of Representatives — as they decide whether to fund President Joe Biden’s multiple vaccine mandates. *** I have been contending for decades that Republicans in Washington, sooner or later, must make up their minds: Are they going to walk the walk of limited government, individual freedom, and constitutional republicanism with their votes on the floor of Congress, or are they just going to talk it in fundraising appeals and on Fox News,...

Yesterday evening and this morning, we sent you two URGENT action alerts. And you all responded marvelously. The team here at GOA is so grateful for all of you who took action. Your loud voice makes it known to legislators on Capitol Hill that people back at home are truly watching what they’re doing. Yesterday our team in Washington, D.C., learned that anti-gunners in the Senate were trying to pass Universal Background Checks without a single senator voting. So-called Universal Background Checks are only enforceable if the government has a registry to check if a gun belongs to a gun...

“We have the instruments to have safe travel,” U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said. “Let’s use those instruments to avoid this kind of, allow me to say, travel apartheid."As the world continued to grapple with how to respond to the new omicron variant Thursday, the sweeping travel bans imposed by many countries faced fresh criticism from global leaders. The scrutiny over the Covid- 19 restrictions came as the United States moves to slightly tighten its own international travel rules, after the first omicron case was detected in California and as South Africa, where the variant was first reported last week, saw...

Committee of NYC Religious and Independent School Officials opposes vaccine mandate for religious and private schools. New York City will require employees at yeshivas, Catholic schools and other private schools to be vaccinated against COVID-19, according to a new directive announced Thursday. The directive is expected to affect roughly 930 schools and 56,000 employees, city officials said, according to a report in the New York Times. They will have to show proof they received the first dose of a vaccine by December 20...

There are several credible candidates in Ohio’s Republican primary to replace Sen. Rob Portman next year. With so many options for voters, deciding which to rule out first seems like a smart first step. Contenders include former state treasurer and legislator Josh Mandel, former Ohio GOP chairwoman Jane Timken, Cleveland-area businessmen Bernie Moreno and Mike Gibbons, and Cincinnati venture capitalist J.D. Vance. Most polls have shown upwards of a third of likely voters are undecided, with Mandel in the lead, Vance trailing behind him, and everyone else laboring in single digits. Donald Trump won Ohio by 8 points last November,...

German physician-scientists reported Monday that not a single healthy child between the ages of 5 and 18 died of Covid in Germany in the first 15 months of the epidemic. Not one. Even including children and adolescents with preexisting conditions, only six in that age range died, the researchers found. Germany is Europe’s largest country, with more than 80 million people, including about 10 million school-age children and adolescents. Serious illness was also extremely rare. The odds that a healthy child aged 5-11 would require intensive care for Covid were about 1 in 50,000, the researchers found. For older and...

The media’s deluge of lies about the Rittenhouse case is a disturbing reminder that the corporate press lies about everything all the time.As far as corporate media are concerned, the massacre in Waukesha, Wis., on Sunday was a “Christmas parade crash.” That’s how the attack that killed six people and injured more than 60 others is being described by ABC News, CBS News, CNN, Newsweek and others. Not an intentional attack, not a massacre allegedly committed by a violent career criminal already facing multiple felony charges, but merely a crash. The New York Times is calling it a “tragedy.” ***...
