    The problem is much closer to home. Take a good look at your own city, find out what’s wrong, then do something about it. One of my favorite bumper stickers reads “Stop Continental Drift.” Today, there are more than 332 million Americans, but only 535 members of Congress. If you think any of these 535 people are working to turn your country into a woke dystopia, what do you do? Drive to Washington, walk briskly to Capitol Hill, and give them a piece of your mind? Or stroll over to the White House and interrupt Joe’s nap? Obviously, you have...

    We are used to looking up when finding Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP, previously known as UFOs) of the type reported by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) on June 25, 2021. Six months after the ODNI report, President Biden signed into law — with bipartisan support in Congress — the establishment of a new UAP office. The office, to operate by June 2022, will start a coordinated effort of reporting and responding to UAP and significantly improve data-sharing between government agencies on UAP sightings. But it is also possible to find UAP by looking down at them...
  • Was the Pandemic Caused by a Leaked Bioweapon or a Mishap in the Vaccine Race?

    The devastation wreaked by the Covid-19 virus on human life and the world economy – especially the way it made doomsday scenarios of contagion all too real – has made ordinary people anxious to know its origin. Shockingly, there is enough evidence and reason to suspect that the pandemic might have been the result of a vaccine arms race that skirted dangerously close to bioweapons development. And that a leak from a lab in Wuhan, China – inadvertent or, well, by design – may have been responsible for the pandemic. The behind-the-scenes players were the U.S. government, Big Pharma, and...
  • Why the Masked and the Unmasked Have Disdain for Each Other

    Among the many unbridgeable divides between Americans is a completely antithetical view of mask wearing. On one side are those who wear masks almost everywhere outside their homes and who demand that others do so, including young children in class and on outdoor playgrounds, and 2-year-olds on airplanes. On the other side are those who only wear a mask where they are punished for not doing so (most obviously, airplanes). They regard masks as essentially pacifiers for adults. Generally speaking, these two groups have disdain for each other. Why the pro-mask half of America holds the anti-mask half in contempt...

    On Sept. 25, 2021, the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures was launched to memorize the world of film. It was a good idea. The cinematic experience is unique, and well known the world over. Where else can a diverse group of people be engaged such that they forget their differences and experience almost identical emotions simultaneously? The world of film is also where art and technology unite to deliver a unique mix of sound and image. Beyond entertainment, cinema is an important module of literature. Many films have also transcended the realms of the cinema halls to become cultural milestones...

    "They are on the cusp of their enrichment to nuclear grade," said Texas Rep. Michael McCaul. The top Republican on the House Foreign Affairs Committee is warning that the Iranian regime is 12-18 months away from developing a nuclear bomb. "Russia sent a secret agreement to Iran," Texas GOP Rep. Michael McCaul said during a press briefing with other GOP leaders. "Russia is trying to take the lead now on negotiations with Iran. The secret agreement, we haven't seen it. The Biden administration still thinks that negotiating at the table is the way to go." McCaul, former chairman of the...

    After nearly two years of America pursuing politically motivated policies to “eradicate” an unstoppable respiratory virus, an increasing number of liberal politicians, commentors and publications have begun to speak out about the failures and human cost of lockdowns and the vaccine/mask mandates. They, along with many on the right, are applauding those who now claim that government Covid policy was a “catastrophic moral crime.” Who are these charlatans that are embarking on a campaign to exonerate themselves from their complicity in a “catastrophic moral crime”? Many of them were at the forefront of spreading ideologically motivated lies. The bureaucrats, the...

    After University of Pennsylvania women’s swimming team member Lia Thomas, formerly known as Will Thomas, won two more events against female swimmers on Saturday, one teammate who preferred to remain anonymous spoke out, saying, “Women are now third-class citizens.”Lia Thomas won the 100-yard and 200-yard freestyle races in the meet against Harvard University.The anonymous teammate told The Washington Examiner, “Lia was not even close to being competitive as a man in the 50 and the 100. But just because Lia is biologically a man, [Lia] is just naturally better than many females in the 50 and the 100 or anything...

    In July 2017, a giant iceberg, named A-68, snapped off Antarctica’s Larsen-C ice shelf and began an epic journey across the Southern Ocean. Three and a half years later, the main part of iceberg, A-68A, drifted worryingly close to South Georgia. Concerns were that the berg would run aground in the shallow waters offshore. This would not only cause damage to the seafloor ecosystem but also make it difficult for island wildlife, such as penguins, to make their way to the sea to feed. Using measurements from satellites, scientists have charted how A-68A shrunk towards the end of its voyage,...

    The Biden administration is withholding a "secret agreement" with Iran from Congress as negotiations over a revamped nuclear deal continue in Vienna, according to two Republican lawmakers. Reports emerged late Friday that Russia proposed an interim nuclear deal to Iran with the knowledge of U.S. officials. The deal would reportedly lift some sanctions on Iran in exchange for a limited set of restrictions on the country’s nuclear program. Russia offered the deal to Iran on the sidelines of ongoing negotiations in Vienna, according to NBC News, which first reported on the document. Tehran is said to have rejected the interim...

    WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court agreed Monday to hear a major challenge to race-based affirmative action in the nation’s college and universities, setting the stage for another long-sought win for conservatives. The justices voted to hear a pair of appeals contending that Harvard University, the nation’s oldest private university, and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, the oldest public university, are violating civil rights laws by giving preferences to some minority students seeking admission while discriminating against others, including Asian Americans. They ask the court to rule that universities, whether public or private, may “not use race as...

    Palm Elementary School in Lorain, Ohio is under fire after both the principal and lunch aide allegedly forced a nine-year-old child to eat food from the garbage can in December. According to the lawsuit, the student was eating waffles and decided to throw them away because she didn't like them, WKWC reports. Monika Sommers-Fridenstine, the school's lunch aide at that time, pulled the waffles from the garbage can, wiped them off, and gave them back to the young student to eat. Debra Pustulka, the school's principal who was also in the room, told the student she had to finish the...
