French President Emmanuel Macron has shown that he is just not suitable to be the head of any government. Macron is fully on board with Schwab’s Great Reset. They promised that creating the EU would lead to a bigger economy that would beat the United States, but that has proven false. The EU has even been surpassed by China. Macron actually said in an interview with Le Parisien newspaper: “I really want to piss them off, and we’ll carry on doing this – to the end.” For a head of state to address the nation in this manner is unimaginable....

We lost our dear dog, Sully, yesterday, and I'm absolutely heartbroken. He was our second recuse dog - the older one is strangely still alive and well. So, this was our first time going through the process. I expected it to be terrible, and it's worse than expected. He was about 13 and getting pretty rickety, falling down a lot, had trouble going up and down stairs, had poor bladder and bowel control anymore and had some dementia - staring off into walls at times. But, he was still as sweet as he was the day that we decided to...

Fix Our Senate, the obscure outfit leading a coalition of 70 liberal advocacy groups backing Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s (D-N.Y.) anti-filibuster drive, is a left-wing “dark-money pop-up,” according to a political nonprofit finance expert. “Fix Our Senate may present itself as a standalone, grassroots activist group, but it’s actually a front for the Sixteen Thirty Fund, itself part of a $1.7 billion left-wing ‘dark- money pop-up’ empire run by the shadowy consulting firm Arabella Advisors,” said Capital Research Center (CRC) senior investigative researcher Hayden Ludwig. “We call these fronts ‘pop-ups’ because they’re websites which pop into existence, run attack...

”The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one. The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world: And the reapers are the angels. As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be at the end of this world. The son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; and shall cast them into the furnace...

With the anniversary of January 6th this week, Democrats are using it to push massive election reforms. They claim the reforms are necessary to save Democracy. Indeed, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) says the situation is so dire that it is necessary to change long-held Senate rules so that Democrats can pass the bill on a pure party-line vote. The For the People Act of 2021 replaces state voter ID rules with a signed statement from the voter, and makes permanent the pandemic’s mail-in ballot voting. The mailing out of blank absentee ballots en masse would become a fixture...

Delivery slowdowns at the U.S. Postal Service take effect Friday, and higher prices are soon to follow. The nation’s mail service is preparing to implement core components of Postmaster General Louis DeJoy’s 10-year plan for the agency, a program designed to cut costs and raise new revenue to fix its many financial problems. The Postal Service has struggled for years with financial losses due to declining mail use, and the coronavirus pandemic exposed more issues within the agency as it struggled to cope with an avalanche of e-commerce purchases, worker availability problems and a disorganized processing network. DeJoy, the controversial...

In a study in mice, sildenafil, a commonly used erectile dysfunction medication, was found to worsen abdominal aortic aneurysms, indicating additional research may be needed to determine if the medication may have the same effect on people. Sildenafil is commonly used to treat pulmonary hypertension and also widely prescribed to treat erectile dysfunction. Sildenafil works by blocking enzymes that regulate the contraction of the vascular smooth muscle cells. There have been at least four cases of aortic dissection after use of medications that inhibit cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase 5, including the medication sildenafil, according to study authors. An abdominal aortic aneurysm...

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) says it is not working in tandem with the U.S. Postal Service to specifically target foreign shipments of ivermectin despite two recent seizures of the drug. On Oct. 4, 2021, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers working at the international mail facility at Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport seized a shipment of 41 fake COVID-19 vaccination cards, and another shipment that contained ivermectin tablets. A second package from Mexico contained 32 more ivermectin tablets and 40 hydroxychloroquine pills. “While x-raying a package from China, officers noticed some discrepancies. The package said it contained...

Days after White House COVID-19 advisor Anthony Fauci suggested the federal government is considering changing its definition of “fully vaccinated” to include a booster dose, he indicated Tuesday that such efforts are underway. The Epoch Times “We’re using the terminology now ‘keeping your vaccinations up to date,’ rather than what ‘fully vaccinated’ means,” Fauci said during a National Institutes of Health-hosted commentary. “Right now, optimal protection is with a third shot of an mRNA or a second shot of a J&J,” he said, referring to the Johnson & Johnson vaccine as well as the Pfizer and Moderna shots, which use...

@NRA BREAKING: Georgia Governor @BrianKempGA Announces Support for Constitutional Carry; 2025 NRA Annual Meeting to be held in Atlanta

The Federal Reserve Open Market Committee meeting should have a Lawrence Welk bubble machine operating, particularly for their announcements. When we look at the Buffett Indicator, we can see how The Federal Reserve’s loose monetary policies (or follycies) are driving up stocks to unsustainable levels that may not survive without The Fed’s “Do Ho Big Bubble Policies.” How about the Shiller CAPE (Cyclically-adjusted Price/Earnings) ratio? While not up to dot.com levels yet, the Shiller CAPE ratio is climbing with the assistance of The Fed and their insane money printing. How about house prices? The Case-Shiller National home price index is...

A folic acid-like drug, L-methylfolate, when administered alongside the standard therapy for patients with recurrent glioblastoma, changed a DNA process within their brain tumors, according to results from a phase 1 clinical trial. The researchers showed for the first time that the DNA methylome of these brain tumors can be reprogrammed. Stephen Clark, Ph.D. said that this is the first time DNA methylome reprogramming has occurred with any solid human tumor. The DNA methylome is one aspect of the epigenome; the epigenome is a modification of DNA and proteins in a cell that is influenced by the environment. DNA methylation...

Mayo Clinic is dismissing about 700 workers for failing to comply with a vaccine-mandate policy at the Rochester, Minnesota-based health system. Employees had until Monday to either receive their first shots or obtain an exemption for medical or religious reasons, the StarTribune reported. Mayo Clinic said it granted the majority of exemption requests.

many observers.. have noted that cases are not the correct metric to measure the impact of Covid. We have also questioned hospitalization and death numbers in an environment where every patient who arrives in an emergency room receives a test.. Fauci partially vindicated our assertions. .. finally said that the focus should be on hospitalizations, not cases. ... As you get further on and the infections become less severe, it is much more relevant to focus on the hospitalizations as opposed to the total number of cases,” Fauci told George Stephanopoulos .. In reality, infections were less severe in vast...

The Department of Justice on Jan. 3 announced a new rule for firearm safety and storage, set to take effect on Feb. 3. The new rule implements the existing Gun Control Act requirement that imposes strict licensing and regulation on the firearms industry, and states that federal firearms licensees (FFLs) that sell firearms to the general public must certify that they have available secure gun storage or safety device. The act defines secure gun storage or safety devices as “a device that, when installed on a firearm, is designed to prevent the firearm from being operated without first deactivating the...
