Demand from sugar-crazed New Yorkers for a small-time doughnut shop set up by a couple who lost their jobs in the pandemic has been so high it now has a waiting list of thousands of customers. The Filipino-inspired Kora bakery was started out of a Woodside, Queens apartment last summer as a specialist online-only store of tasty treats. But with orders flying in, chef Kimberly Camara and her partner, Kevin Borja, now have a five-person-strong team and industrial kitchen. They have now been working through a 5,000-person waiting list which had swelled to as big as 10,000 at one point,...

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has revealed the public events to mark the anniversary of January 6th – with Rep. Jason Crow (D-Colo.), who was among those huddling for safety inside the House chamber that day, leading testimonials. Pelosi describes the events in a letter to House Democratic colleagues as conveying 'reflection, remembrance and recommitment' – even as former President Donald Trump has announced he will air his grievances about what he calls a 'rigged election' at a press conference at Mar-a-Lago on January 6th. 'As we enjoy the Holiday Season with loved ones, we are preparing to mark one year...

The US, the UK and other major economies could be on the brink of over-vaccinating people in the fight against Covid, experts say. Israeli officials have already announced their intentions to embark on dishing out another round of booster jabs, meaning both the US and UK will eventually face pressure to follow suit even though both nations have insisted there are no plans to administer fourth doses yet. But scientists argue that rolling out vaccines every three-to-four months simply isn't 'doable' and may not even be necessary because of Omicron, which some believe will speed up the process of endemicity...

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau told a Quebec television station people who do not get vaccinated against COVID are often racist and misogynistic extremists. His comments prompted People’s Party of Canada leader Maxime Bernier to call Trudeau a “fascist psychopath.” [actually, he's a sociopath but I get the sentiment]“We are going to end this pandemic by proceeding with the vaccination,” said Trudeau in French. “We all know people who are deciding whether or not they are willing to get vaccinated, and we will do our very best to try to convince them. However, there is still a part of the population...

The Los Angeles police officer who fatally shot a 14-year-old girl as she tried on Christmas dresses has been identified as a veteran Black cop who, before killing the unarmed teenager, tried to build his brand as a community advocate and reformer. He also launched an apparel line called “Use of Force Fitness” but dissolved it in December 2020, after months of unprecedented protests against police violence across America. William Dorsey Jones Jr., 42, was formally identified by his lawyer in The New York Times. Attempts to reach Jones for comment this week were unsuccessful, and his attorney, Leslie Wilcox,...

Epstein's buddies who played with the wealthy pedophile are now in fear of being exposed. With Ghislaine Maxwell being found guilty for recruiting and grooming underage girls, Prince Andrew and his legal team engaged in an overnight emergency meeting. Prince Andrew is among many influential people who now fear Ghislaine Maxwell will “name names” to reduce her sentence, bringing down other participants in the Epstein pedophile ring with her. Maxwell’s conviction is damning for Prince Andrew as the Duke of York is already in hot water. His legal team has been busy preparing for federal court in Manhattan, New York,...

The Federal Bureau of Investigation is a morally bankrupt, politically weaponized agency doing the dirty work of the Democratic Party. In June 2020, as the country attempted to recover from deadly and destructive riots after the death of George Floyd, a man from Wisconsin hosted a national conference of self-styled “militia” members in a suburban Columbus, Ohio hotel. Stephen Robeson, founder of the Wisconsin chapter of the Three Percenters, an alleged militia group on the FBI’s naughty list, pestered his contacts across the country to participate in the gathering. People who attended the conference, including two men later charged with...

On the other hand it doesn’t mean they aren’t.Take Chance the Gardner, aka Chauncy Gardiner, a simple-minded man whose world has been defined by what he has seen on television and observed in the gardener. It turns out a simpleton in a well tailored suit with a firm handshake can dupe the powerbrokers in Washington D.C.. Thus they take Chance to be some sort of savant even though what he says is complete nonsense.Quite the allegory for our time.Definitely not being thereThe Deep State roots run deep so it will take a very, very deep frost to kill them.As long...

A hoax paper in critical whiteness that problematises (sic) the use of white milk in black coffee as racist, has been accepted by Stockholm University and even received some praise. The essay called "Black and white drinks" was written by 27-year-old Arvid Haag and framed as an "account of what happened from the early 20th century in the struggle between coffee and milk". In the essay, Haag described how the marketing of coffee has been characterized by highlighting the "black and exotic elements" of the drink. With milk, however, "the local and the white" was emphasized, the news outlet Fria...

Pray For The Peace of JerusalemJohn 17Jesus Prays to Be Glorified 17 After Jesus said this, he looked toward heaven and prayed: “Father, the hour has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify you. 2 For you granted him authority over all people that he might give eternal life to all those you have given him. 3 Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent. 4 I have brought you glory on earth by finishing the work you gave me to do. 5 And now, Father,...

Fool's Ball Week 17 Your home for all things Fool's Ball! In Memoriam Danny Lee (BENDER2)

“[Christ] is also head of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the first-born from the dead; so that He Himself might come to have first place in everything. For it was the Father’s good pleasure for all the fulness to dwell in Him” (Colossians 1:18-19). Christ has preeminence in everything. The apostle Paul presents four great truths in Colossians 1:18 about Christ’s relation to the church. The first is that Christ is the head of the church. This concept looks at the church as a living organism, inseparably tied together by the living Christ. He controls every...

During this season, we see so many people, young people especially, who have lost heart and lost hope. They don’t see any reason to go on living; they don’t see a purpose for the future, and it’s really one of the modern-day tragedies of our times. If you turn to the gospel of Luke, it talks about how God came to each one of us. Angels announced Christ’s birth to shepherds, and then “Suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying: ‘Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill...

Although there are many things that characterize the year 2021, perhaps nothing is more conspicuous than the deep lack of trust that Americans currently have in their national leadership. From the president to the CDC, from Dr. Fauci to the media, almost everyone is viewed with suspicion and mistrust.Of course, it would be all too easy for those on the left to blame this on former president Trump. After all, wasn’t he the one driving the “stop the steal” movement? And didn’t he make clear that, not even the Supreme Court could be trusted?But to blame the current situation on...

WASHINGTON, Monday, Dec. 30. WHEN MASON AND SLIDELL WILL GO TO EUROPE. Lord LYONS was in conference to-day with Secretary SEWARD relative to the time and manner at the release of SLIDELL and MASON. They will not be released for some days, as there is no British vessel likely to leave for some time. They will probably go in the British mail steamer which leaves on next Wednesday a week. It was proposed that they should go out on a British man-of-war, but our Government decided on a less ostentatious mode. THE PROCEEDINGS OF CONGRESS. The Senate did nothing but...

DENVER (AP) — Colorado Gov. Jared Polis on Thursday shortened the prison sentence of a truck driver convicted in a deadly crash to 10 years, drastically reducing his original 110-year term that drew widespread outrage. The decision on Rogel Aguilera-Mederos’ sentence was among several year-end commutations and pardons issued by Polis. The move comes days after a judge scheduled a hearing for next month to reconsider the sentence at the request of the district attorney, who planned to ask that it be reduced to 20 to 30 years. Around 5 million people signed an online petition seeking clemency for Aguilera-Mederos,...
