The Fulton County, Georgia, district attorney is asking for the FBI's help in providing security for buildings and staff one day after former President Donald Trump called prosecutors investigating him "racists" and said his supporters should hold "the biggest protests we have ever had" in cities like Atlanta if the prosecutors "do anything wrong or illegal." DA Fani Willis and her office are investigating Trump for his efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results in Georgia. A special grand jury will be seated as part of that investigation on May 2. At a rally in Conroe, Texas, Saturday night,...

More than 100,000 Americans died from diabetes in 2021, marking the second consecutive year for that grim milestone and spurring a call for a federal mobilization similar to the fight against HIV/AIDS. The new figures come as an expert panel urges Congress to overhaul diabetes care and prevention, including recommendations to move beyond a reliance on medical interventions alone. The nation’s toll from diabetes has increased sharply, surpassing 100,000 deaths in each of the last two years and representing a new record. Diabetes-related deaths surged 17% in 2020 and 15% in 2021 compared to the prepandemic level in 2019. …"Type...

Joe Rogan has addressed recent criticism that his podcast "The Joe Rogan Experience" has helped to spread COVID-19 misinformation. A backlash from scientists and health professionals prompted Neil Young and Joni Mitchell to request that their music be taken off Spotify, which owns the podcast. In a video posted to Instagram Sunday, Rogan said of Young and Mitchell: "I'm very sorry that they feel that way. I most certainly don't want that." He added: "I want to thank Spotify for being so supportive during this time and I'm very sorry that this is happening to them and that they're taking...

Raphael Bostic and Goldman Sachs are both calling for dramatic rate increases to fight inflation … that they helped cause with their monetary stimulypto. I call this The Fed’s March of the Toreadors as The Fed now attempts to kill the bull market. (Bloomberg) — The Treasury yield curve flattened to the lowest level in over a year on Monday as the prospect of a super-sized Federal Reserve rate increase in March gained traction, weighing disproportionately on shorter-dated tenors. Two-year U.S. yields climbed as much as 4 basis points after Raphael Bostic, the president of the Fed’s Atlanta branch, said...

OAKLAND, Calif. - Ersie Joyner III pumps his arms on the treadmill and rolls his hips on a foam roller. He lunges. He extends his body into a plank, crunching his knees to his chest. He pumps dumbbells into the air. "Let’s get it!" Joyner shouts with a clap. "Whoo!" It’s no small feat that the 52-year-old retired Oakland police captain is working out at this Hayward gym with his trainer, who also happens to be an associate pastor with whom he studies the Bible every week. Joyner’s body was pierced with 22 bullet wounds after being shot by four...

True the Vote has been doing amazing behind-the-scenes work to uncover a massive voter fraud scheme in critical states that used “mules,” or delivery people who drop multiple harvested ballots into absentee ballot drop boxes. Their incredible work will blow the lid off a voter fraud scheme so sophisticated that it will finally unlock the key to how the 2020 elections were stolen and reveal why Democrats are fighting so hard to nationalize elections and make drop boxes and absentee ballots a permanent way of voting in future elections. Last night, during President Trump’s massive rally in Conroe, Texas, he...

Calvin’s father was closer to the truth than he thought:That is pretty much how they do it when Democrats are in charge. You see, the bridge in Pittsburgh that collapsed last week was known to be failing. It was one of those projects that the Obama/Biden administration touted as a “shovel ready job” that the nearly trillion dollar "American Recovery and Reinvestment Act" was intended to fix.So why didn’t it? Why was this rusted out bridge, first identified as a shovel ready job during Obama’s first term and scheduled to be rebuilt in 2016, left to fall down? Well, that’s...

While this is on Facebook, non Facebook individuals may also view it. I did, and I have never been on facebook. 🙂 It's a short video montage that shows scenes from the East Coast Canada Unity Freedom Convoy. There is no dialog, just music playing in the background, and the runtime of the video is 3:27 (3 minutes & 27 seconds).

Millions of dollars in donations to Black Lives Matter have mysteriously disappeared as several of the group’s top leaders have resigned in disgrace. Worse, there seems to be confusion about who is even in charge today. According to the Washington Examiner, the group’s tax forms do not match up and the remaining leaders can’t say who is the top person in charge.

The Evidence Thus Far. In this post I’ll be detailing the evidence, testimony, and documents we know – or can assume – Special Counsel John Durham has obtained during his investigation. By no means is this an exhaustive list; certainly, he has more information, documents, correspondence, etc. than we realize. There are unknown witnesses who have testified before a grand jury or have been interviewed by Durham’s team. There are issues he’s investigating out of the public knowledge. His investigation is remarkably tight-lipped. As far as we know, they aren’t leaking to the press for publicity or to put pressure...

Yesterday I wrote about the Brooklyn public school teacher, Christopher Flanigan, who described the massive gathering of police officers at slain Detective Jason Rivera’s funeral as “ideal conditions for reciprocity,” after citing a 2020 instance where a police vehicle drove through a crowd of protesters and rioters in the city. I am forced to confess that I got one thing wrong when covering that story. After noting an actress who was fired after also complaining about the funeral, I said that her treatment was “more than you’ll see happening to Mr. Flanigan” because of the far-left climate in most of...
