Chambersburg on Monday became the first municipal authority in the commonwealth to repeal protections for residents against discrimination based on their sexual orientation, ethnicity or gender identity. By a 7-3 Republican-majority vote, the Chambersburg Borough Council made good on its pledge, repealing the ordinance citing a host of reasons, including redundancy in the ordinance and lack of muscle in its provisions. The ordinance, enacted just four months ago in October by a then Democratic majority, extended protections against discrimination toward gay, transgender or genderqueer people in employment, housing and public accommodations. “We are a very diverse community,” said council vice...

democrats are beating the drums for war with Russia. Adam Schiff declares that Russia is an 'imminent and real threat' to invade Ukraine. He says the evidence is in plain sight- you know, just like Russian collusion. Alexander Vindman, the wannabe Ukraine Defense Minister, says “I think we’re basically just on the cusp of war” and that "there’s going to be a large European war on the order of magnitude of World War II." The White House is urging Americans to leave Ukraine now.Others are not so certain. Ukrainian President Zelensky says Americans are safer off in Kyiv than they...

Kid Rock released a politically charged new single to help promote his upcoming Bad Reputation Tour that pulls no punches in mocking people like President Joe Biden and Dr. Anthony Fauci. The artist dropped his latest track "We The People" along with two others at midnight on Tuesday to get his fans excited for a bevy of live performances he’s kicking off in April that he teased may very well be the last time he hits the road to perform across the country. Right out of the gate, the track is overtly political as the typically right-leaning rocker bashes COVID-19...

ZAGREB, 19 Jan 2022 - Croatian Prime Minister Andrej Plenković said on Wednesday that Croatia would react "clearly and resolutely" if Russia attacked Ukraine. Russia has caused concern in Kyiv and the West by amassing troops and equipment near the border with Ukraine and there are fears that it is preparing for an attack. Moscow denies this and says it has the right to deploy its troops on its territory any way it wants. Speaking in the Croatian parliament, Plenković said that the situation in the east of Ukraine was very worrying and the tensest since 2014 and conflicts between...

Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, a small borough located in South Central PA, is the first community in PA to repeal a leftist-inspired LGBTQ+ “protection” ordinance that was pushed through by last year’s leftist-dominated Borough Council.

Joe Biden has blown his fake “kind grandfather” persona that his Handlers made up for him. It was never real because Joe Biden has always been a mean, cocky, narcissistic a-hole. But the Handlers re-packaged him as a “kindly old grandad” in an effort to strike a stark contrast to the bombastic Trump. And a lot of people bought it – not 81-million, but a lot did… and now, they’re seeing that they were duped. But it’s more than just Joe being an a-hole. Now, I believe what we’re dealing with is his dementia, and that front part of his...

As we head into a nightmare situation with Russia, I wanted to remind you of something that a high-ranking Russian official said about Joe Biden last March. We just got word that things may escalate overseas, and Joe Biden’s Handlers are now considering sending troops, warships, and aircraft to NATO allies.

That depends on whom you ask, and sometimes, which news outlet is reporting.New York StateNew York’s “progressive” governor, Kathy Hochul, blames “illegal guns” for the recent shootings of two New York City Police Department (NYPD) officers, one of whom died. He was a 22-year-old rookie.“We have a moral obligation to do everything we can to fight the scourge of illegal guns on our streets,”...

Republicans cannot afford to do what they have largely always done with a Senate majority: set it on a shelf, polish it, and admire it from afar. The 2022 agenda for House Republicans may be out of touch with the current political moment, but at least they can say they’re trying. Over on the other side of the Capitol, Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., the leader of the Senate’s Republican conference, has announced he’s not even putting out an agenda for 2022. According to reporting by Axios last month, McConnell told a room full of donors, lobbyists, and in-cycle senators that...

AN escape of lab monkeys on a Pennsylvania highway has sparked fears of a virus outbreak after a woman who came into contact with them later fell ill.

State troopers said four of the primates were on the loose and warned the public not to try to catch them on Friday evening. They have all since been accounted for. Now it has emerged a passerby who was at the scene is being treated for symptoms of an unknown...

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin reacted during the inaugural broadcast of FNC’s “Jesse Watters Primetime” on Monday. Palin said the virus was being used as a way to “control the people. “This is madness though, this COVID overreach, overregulation, overreaction. “I don’t know who decided that this was going to be one that was going to be politicized and weaponized, science, a virus?” Palin continued. “A virus that has just turned into something that is just something to control the people — well, that’s exactly what it’s become, and it’s a shame.”

President Joe Biden faced backlash on Monday evening after he called Fox News reporter Peter Doocy a “stupid son of a b***h” for asking about soaring inflation rates. Biden made the profane remark at the end of an event as Doocy tried to get him to respond to a question about how inflation could impact the Democratic Party during the upcoming midterms. “Do you think inflation is a political liability for midterms?” Doocy asked. “It’s a great asset, more inflation,” Biden responded. “What a stupid son of a b****.” Many people pointed out what Biden told his staffers on his...

Washington (AFP) – The United States on Tuesday warned Russia of damaging sanctions, including high-tech export curbs, and said attempts by Moscow to "weaponize" its enormous oil and gas industry would backfire. "We are prepared to implement sanctions with massive consequences" that go far beyond previous measures implemented in 2014 after Russia invaded Ukraine's Crimea region, a senior US official said. "If Russia decides to weaponize its supply of natural gas or crude oil, it wouldn't be without consequences to the Russian economy," a senior US official told reporters. Although the European Union sources about 40 percent of its supply...

Croatian President Zoran Milanovic has announced that Zagreb will withdraw its troops from NATO contingents stationed in the region if the situation escalates into a full-scale conflict. Speaking in a televised address on Tuesday, the leader said he saw “reports that NATO – not a separate state, not the United States – is increasing its presence and sending reconnaissance ships.” He insisted that the Zagreb authorities “have nothing to do with it and we won’t have anything to do with it, I guarantee that.” “Not only will we not send the army, but if there is an escalation, we will...
