Ex-NY Times journalist warns of corporate wokeness in media industry: 'What happens is a kind of internal self-censorship' Former New York Times journalist Bari Weiss confronted CNN’s Brian Stelter about his network’s coverage of the COVID-19 lab leak theory when listing examples of why the world has gone mad "Where can I start? Well, when you have the chief reporter on the beat of COVID for The NY Times talking about how questioning or pursuing the question of the lab leak is racist, the world has gone mad. When you're not able to say out loud and in public there...

President Joe Biden finished his first year in office on an “epic losing streak” characterized by his strained relationship with “Republicans, moderate Democrats, and liberal Democrats — all at once,” Axios reported Friday. “But that’s where Biden finds himself at the start of an election year that many Democrats believe will result in the loss of the House and maybe the Senate,” the report surmised. Biden will have been president one year next Thursday and has “never been less popular nationally” after advocating for voting rights and his Build Back Better agenda “and failing.” Black activists and even the far-left...

WASHINGTON, Wednesday, Jan. 15. The Senate in Executive session to-day, unanimously confirmed the nomination of Mr. STANTON as Secretary of War. He will enter upon the discharge of his duties on Saturday. The President stated to-day that Gen. MCCLELLAN knew nothing of STANTON's appointment till it was made. The nomination of Mr. CAMERON as Minister to Russia was not confirmed, but laid over for further consideration. It is doubtless true that Adjt.-Gen. THOMAS will soon vacate his place. The reasons for this change are obvious and inexorable. There is deeper and more general hostility to him than to any other...

Things that make you go hmmmmm.Yet they continue to push, nay, demand that young men get a vaccine known to be only moderately effective in stopping transmission or contraction of the virus. It’s continued to be forcibly imposed on young people and athletes who have very little chance of death or even serious complications from the infection itself.Australia, which requires anyone arriving from abroad to be vaccinated originally granted Novak Djokovic a visa to play in the Australian Open based on an exemption – having acquired natural immunity from having contracted COVID twice. Then the Australian government determined to make...

This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. Galatians 5:16 (King James Version) The number one tennis player in the world is hated by most of the world media for one reason, not getting the vaccine. Novak Djokovi who is the defending champion of the Australian open and number one player in the world refuses to get the clot shot so the Australia Tennis Federation is giving him grief about letting him defend his title. They may deny him playing in their tourney without a vaccine which does not work...

I am ashamed of the country of my birth. Australia has lost its soul. Even a gennuinely conservative federal government has betrayed what Australia used to stand for. Be warned America. This is the future when freedom dies.

It has been a little more than a month since the United Nations climate meeting at Glasgow, yet global use of fossil fuels has increased rapidly. For instance, U.S. President Joe Biden cancelled domestic oil projects and vowed to stop funding for international fossil fuel projects. But as fuel prices rose, Biden responded to his self-induced energy insecurity by releasing 50 million barrels of oil reserves and even called for an increase in domestic oil production. Within a span of a few months, the U.S. president went from being a climate savior to a climate villain. Though many may classify...

These posters mysteriously appeared all over walls in DC overnight. I’m impressed:

Late last year, popular podcast host Joe Rogan invited onto his show Dr. Robert Malone, a world-class Covid denier and medical quack, who told Rogan’s millions of listeners that public health experts advocating for vaccines today are akin to Nazi’s in the 1930s. Getting vaccinated against a deadly virus was a sign of “mass formation psychosis,” and Malone suggested Biden was leading a hypnotized cult. It was a misinformation-fest that Rogan said at the time he hoped would go viral. It did. Then the whole thing got banned by YouTube, where the Joe Rogan Experience gets uploaded, for violating the...

When a Democrat does it, that means it is not racist Today is the final day in office for Gov. Ralph "Coonman" Northam (D., Va.). The controversial Democrat recently unveiled his official portrait that will hang in the state capitol for posterity. Alas, it will not be the image everyone remembers when they hear his name. Nearly two years have passed since a Washington Free Beacon alum unearthed a photo from Northam's medical school yearbook page of an individual wearing blackface who is posing next to an individual wearing a Ku Klux Klan robe. The governor immediately acknowledged appearing in...

Kari Lake, a candidate for Governor in Arizona, told Breitbart News Saturday that she plans to enter into an interstate compact with other states to circumvent federal immigration and border policies. Before politics, Lake covered the state of Arizona as an anchorwoman for 27 years. Now, Lake is taking on the political battle in Arizona because the state needs a governor “who will stand for the people and not the special interest.” Breitbart News Saturday host Matthew Boyle highlighted Lake’s 11-page immigration policy and asked her to expound upon her plans to secure America’s southern border. Lake called out the...

There is a certain level of madness required to reach the state our country is in today. I think most of us feel this and know this but I want to dissect the situation a little so that we can see the guts of the thing and understand the mechanics of it. Insanity has a structure, believe it or not, and there are ways to analyze it and identify it. For example, there are many forms of madness that stem from an obsession with power and control. In my previous article ‘Is There A Way To Prevent Psychopaths From Getting...

The founder of a national charter school network who once served as a White House adviser under President Barack Obama has pleaded guilty to a charge alleging he stole $218,000 from the network to get a lower interest rate on a multimillion-dollar luxury Manhattan apartment. Seth Andrew, 42, a founder of Democracy Prep, on Friday entered the plea in Manhattan federal court to wire fraud, admitting that he moved money in 2019 from the charter school network to other bank accounts without authorization. 'I am truly sorry for what I have done,' Andrew told Judge John P. Cronan. 'What I...

Nicholas Alahverdian was a lauded and vocal advocate for child welfare reform, but he was also a man wanted for fraud and sex assault, investigators say A Rhode Island man reported dead two years ago as he faced criminal charges in multiple states, including for sex assault and fraud, has been found alive in a Scotland hospital suffering from COVID, and now faces extradition back to the U.S. Nicholas Alahverdian was linked in 2018 to a 2008 cold case sex assault case in Utah using DNA evidence from a rape kit, prosecutors say.

On his first day, Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares has eliminated the Office of Civil Rights. Miyares also announced he will prosecute criminal cases in jurisdictions where Soros DAs decline to prosecute, and he has already opened investigations into Loudon County Public Schools. Jason Miyares @JasonMiyaresVA As a candidate, I promised to investigate the scandals at the Virginia Parole Board and Loudoun County Schools. As Attorney General, I am proud to say that the process has begun and the investigations are officially open.

Former President Donald Trump is stepping up his election-year effort to dominate the Republican Party with a Saturday rally in Arizona in which he plans to castigate anyone who dares to question his lie that the 2020 presidential election was stolen, likely including the state’s GOP governor, Doug Ducey. But 2,000 miles to the east in Washington, there are small signs that some Republicans are tiring of the charade. Mike Rounds, the generally unassuming senator from South Dakota, was perhaps the boldest in acknowledging the reality that the election was in fact fair. Instead of being shunned, he was supported...
