These little wheelguns pack more punch than .22 LR pistols. But is it enough to get the job done? In a previous article we took a closer look at using .22 LR pistols for self defense. The conversation was inspired by the release of new rimfire models that look and carry like center-fire models. However, the second most popular rimfire rifle cartridge in the United States, the .22 WMR, has also been pressed into service as a low-recoil defensive option. More commonly known as the .22 Magnum, or just .22 Mag., this rimfire cartridge is carried more often than some...

Dr. Vladimir Zelenko became a hero for his early use of hydroxychloroquine to fight COVID. Sadly, his efforts were halted by a Democrat governor. But Dr. Zelenko didn’t stop. He kept working — and found an over-the-counter way to help people. Watch: Here is Dr. Zelenko talk about “the bullet and gun” approach for understanding zinc ionophores (transcript of highlights is below): Here is a transcript of highlights from the video: Dr. Zelenko: “Zinc is the bullet – it kills the virus. The only problem is the bullet doesn’t get to the place where it needs to be. The virus...

Alec Baldwin refuses to turn his phone over to investigators, who have a warrant to seize it. They believe it could provide evidence clarifying the chain of events that led to the shooting death of a cinematographer on the set of the film “Rust” in New Mexico in October. And yet, in a video the actor posted to Instagram, he’s “demanding” law enforcement “honor the death” of the cinematographer, Halyna Hutchins, by finding out “the truth.” Which, presumably, isn’t on his phone. The Instagram video came after a Friday New York Post report in which legal experts contacted by the...

New York City Covid Death Rate falls from 1 percent to .25 percent. 14 Day lag probably more accurate at showing the delay between diagnosis and death. Deaths are often updated, usually upwards, but not significantly.

A Florida couple has abducted, chained, and tortured a man for over three days after the victim refused to admit to infidelity, authorities said. Occius Dorsainvil, 56, and his wife, Marie Dorsainvil, 51, face attempted murder, kidnapping, and extortion charges after they forced the victim to drink bleach and threatened him with eating his own stool or be killed.

Since 1960, federal civil rights law has required state and local election officials to “retain and preserve” records relating to elections involving federal officeholders for 22 months after ballots are cast. That would seem to be a good thing as Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger embarks on an investigation into whether third-party liberal activists in 2020 illegally gathered and delivered absentee ballots for voters — a practice known as harvesting that is outlawed in the Peach State. But some of Georgia’s largest counties tell Just the News that they no longer possess evidence that could be helpful to probing...

Savannah Guthrie has tested positive for a breakthrough case of COVID-19 — more than a week after her 50th birthday party. -snip- Guthrie’s diagnosis comes after her husband, Michael Feldman, threw her a belated birthday bash on New Years’ Eve — despite the rise of coronavirus cases in New York. A source close to Guthrie, who turned 50 on Dec. 27, and Feldman, 53, exclusively told Page Six at the time that the two were planning on going “above and beyond” to follow COVID-19 protocols. We’re told only 60 people were invited, including family members, close friends and some colleagues...

The skyrocketing wokeness of administrators who control teacher hiring will ensure that all classrooms are increasingly devoted to indoctrination. The woke-o-meter in public schools is about to ramp up. Parents who think they don’t have time to homeschool may soon realize that, compared to the effort involved in monitoring and countering the nonsense from leftist classrooms, homeschooling is the relaxing alternative. Not all teachers buy into the leftist narrative of race-obsessed anti-Americanism. But leftist K-12 administrators want to ensure that, eventually, all teachers will present only approved ideas and counter any wrongthink children are taught at home. Many of these...

So, after 2 years, and all that has gone on, I finally know someone directly who had passed from Covid. Didn't know him well, a coworker, and a very nice man. Leaves behind a wife and a college aged daughter. Over the last 2 years, I have known many people who have gotten sick, some severely but majority, a few days to a few weeks of feeling like crap and back to normal... Some have been hospitalized with severe cases, but all have recovered, though some have been facing very very long recoveries and are still not 100%. I have...

"For More Malaise, Vote Democrat 2022!"That could go down as the worst political slogan ever. But bizarrely, Democrats seem to have adopted "America in malaise" as a central theme of their political marketing plan. Kamala Harris, channeling Jimmy Carter at his nadir, kicked off the gloom 'n doom in an interview with Judy Woodruff on PBS over the weekend, saying there was a "level of malaise" in America. And then this morning, Democrat flak Bakari Sellers, a former South Carolina elected state official who doubles as a CNN political commentator, also employed the m-word, speaking of: "The malaise we’re in...

A man named Anthony Loffredo is truly obsessed with the dream of radically changing his appearance in order to “turn” into a “black alien”. He has already cut his tongue, cut off his nose and ears, covered himself with tattoos and piercings, and recently decided to cut off two fingers from each hand to obtain three-fingered palms. The 33-year-old Frenchman says he has achieved the desired transformation by only 34% and that he still has a lot of work to do. In early 2021, he removed his upper lip, and in general, he has been remaking his human body into...

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) tested positive for COVID-19, shortly after being spotted vacationing maskless in Miami. "She is experiencing symptoms and recovering at home. The Congresswoman received her booster shot this Fall, and encourages everyone to get their booster and follow all CDC guidance," her office stated in a press release Sunday evening. It is unclear how severe her symptoms may be. Ocasio-Cortez was spoted shortly before New Year's Eve in Miami with her boyfriend. She has criticized the mandate-free state of Florida in the past for being too lenient about measures regarding COVID-19.

McCabe likened conservatives to members of the Islamic Caliphate: “I can tell you from my perspective of spending a lot of time focused on the radicalization of international terrorists and Islamic extremist and extremists of all stripes… is that this group shares many of the same characteristics of those groups that we’ve seen radicalized along entirely different ideological lines,” he said. McCabe went on to describe the rise of the Islamic caliphate in Syria and how Islamic extremists were radicalized across socioeconomic, educational, and racial lines, likening it to the “mass radicalization” of the political across demographics. That’s right, according...

On Monday morning, the Vikings made what might have been the most sweeping set of leadership changes in the Wilf family's 16 years of owning the team. The team fired coach Mike Zimmer and general manager Rick Spielman on Monday morning, according to a source familiar with the team's decision-making, parting with two men who'd been in their positions longer than most of their peers around the NFL. Both Zimmer and Spielman had two years remaining on the contract extensions they signed in 2020, but a day after the team finished 8-9 and missed the playoffs for the second straight...

s the omicron variant of the novel coronavirus spreads across the United States, roughly 15 percent of adults remain unvaccinated. At the greatest risk for severe illness and death, they have already overwhelmed hospitals and intensive care units in many areas of the country, reducing services available to people who have non-COVID-19 related medical issues.

A foraging badger has uncovered a trove of 209 Roman coins dating as far back as the third century in a Spanish cave, scientists report. Hailed as an 'exceptional find', the coins include some 'from the distant mints' of London, Constantinople and Antioch, an ancient city once located in what is now modern-day Turkey. Researchers think they were hidden in the cave before the arrival of the Suebi, a Germanic people who invaded the Iberian Peninsula in AD 409, known for their infantry and ambush tactics.
