On Friday, Black's attorney and assistant district attorney Thomas Binger reached and filed a proposed plea agreement, which suggested Black would plead no contest to a pair of citations and pay a $2,000 fine, and the felony counts...

    The federal government slashed in half the number of doses of the monoclonal antibodies therapy shipped to Florida from 30,000 to 15,000 this week, according to Gov. Ron DeSantis (R).DeSantis said the 15,000 dozen received would be “immediately utilized to support new monoclonal antibody sites.”“But for the federal government’s decision to restrict supply of monoclonal antibody treatment to Florida, my administration would have already opened additional monoclonal antibody treatment sites throughout the state,” DeSantis said in a press release.The governor said that before the Biden administration “seized control of the monoclonal supply” Florida was administering 30,000 doses per week to...

    [Catholic Caucus] There seems to be a spirit of discontent in Chicago these daysThere seems to be a spirit of discontent in Chicago these days, evidenced in Catholic news, what with the harsh diktats about the Vetus Ordo and the wild sacrilege at St. Sabina.It’s sad. Such a great city. So many problems.Today I received a note that Chicago’s Archbishop was booed and heckled at at pro-life rally. It’s hard to get your mind around that. On the other hand, he’s not exactly the poster boy for defense of the unborn, who seem in his school of thought to be...

    Federal prosecutors say a key FBI informant in the alleged plot to kidnap the governor of Michigan was a “double agent” who was “working against the interests of the government” by trying to destroy evidence and prevent arrests. The confidential informant, Stephen Robeson, played a central role in the investigation that led to the arrest of 14 men for allegedly participating in a plot to kidnap Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in October 2020. At the direction of his FBI handlers, Robeson reached out to potential targets, organized meetings, and paid travel expenses for people to attend such events. Now the government...

    Explanation: What will become of Jupiter's Great Red Spot? Gas giant Jupiter is the solar system's largest world with about 320 times the mass of planet Earth. Jupiter is home to one of the largest and longest lasting storm systems known, the Great Red Spot (GRS), visible to the left. The GRS is so large it could swallow Earth, although it has been shrinking. Comparison with historical notes indicate that the storm spans only about one third of the exposed surface area it had 150 years ago. NASA's Outer Planets Atmospheres Legacy (OPAL) program has been monitoring the storm more...
  • America's Frontline Doctors' Amicus Brief to the Supreme Court on Vaccine Mandates

    Here is the amicus brief submitted to the Supreme Court by America’s Frontline Doctors regarding the administration’s vaccine mandate. Their arguments include these: 1. It is well documented that these vaccines do not prevent either COVID infections or the spread of the disease. Thus, the COVID vaccines are not really vaccines at all, but rather are treatments. 2. The courts have long recognized that individuals have the right of informed consent. 3. Compelling interest of the state to protect the public is invalid because well over 99% of people recover from COVID. Thus, vaccination is not necessary. 4. The recent...

    New Yorkers are about to get what they voted for, and they deserve it... We do not need any research to know that Bragg’s policy will produce disastrous results — common sense tells us so and, given what we’ve seen in other cities where funding from George Soros has elected “progressive” district attorneys like Bragg, we know that life in New York City will become nightmarish. Prostitutes and drug dealers will ply their trades without fear of prosecution, carjackings and burglaries will skyrocket, and the daily death toll from drive-by shootings will shock the nation. “Social justice” requires this.

    Following credible reports from True The Vote, a clean-elections advocacy group, of the existence of ballot-harvesting, which is flamingly illegal in Georgia, several counties have destroyed their camera surveillance data. According to John Solomon's JustTheNews, which broke the story: But some of Georgia's largest counties tell Just the News that they no longer possess evidence that could be helpful to probing the harvesting allegations: video camera surveillance footage that monitored the drop boxes installed around Georgia to help voters cast ballots during the pandemic.

    Will Justin Trudeau don his Indian garb as he bravely leads his troops south over the border to rescue America? And will American liberals--who always promise to move to Canada if things don't go their way politically, but never actually vamoose--actually skedaddle this time? Both questions arise in light of a segment on his MSNBC show Sunday morning that Jonathan Capehart devoted to panicky Canadians freaking out over Donald Trump.
