India announced a diplomatic boycott of the Beijing Olympics on Feb. 3 after the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) picked a People’s Liberation Army (PLA) soldier involved in a bloody 2020 conflict with India as a torchbearer in the Games’ torch relay. India’s state broadcaster also decided to not telecast the opening and the closing ceremonies of the Games as a result.“It is indeed regrettable that the Chinese side has chosen to politicize an event like the Olympics … the Charge d’Affaires of the Embassy of India in Beijing will not be attending the opening or the closing ceremony of the...

Inflation is literally burning a hole though the pockets of Americans. The Flexible Price CPI is raging at 18% YoY. The Dallas Fed has their preferred measure of inflation, the trimmed mean CPI, is growing at only 3.05% YoY. The classic measure of inflation, CPI YoY, is growing at 7.12%. That is of course if you can find things to buy at the grocery store. I remember when Fleetwood Mac played at Bill Clinton’s first inauguration party. Perhaps Fleetwood Mac can play at the midterm election party commemorating the rampant inflation under Biden’s “leadership”: Bare Shelves.

New York, NY (CNN)Joe Rogan issued an apology on Instagram Saturday after artist India Arie posted a compilation of the podcaster frequently using the n-word on his podcast. Rogan used the word more than 20 times in the clips, which he said were compiled over a span of 12 years. In his apology, Rogan said it's the "most regretful and shameful thing" he has ever had to address publicly. "I know that to most people, there's no context where a White person is ever allowed to say that, never mind publicly on a podcast, and I agree with that," he...

Several Republican Attorney Generals from across the U.S. have already publicly announced that their offices will be looking into whether GoFundMe violated any state laws in response to the fundraising website canceling a fundraiser for Canadian truckers and initially stating that they would send the funds to other charities.

Church worshippers were in total shock as a policeman interrupted the mass service at St. Bernadette’s Catholic Church in Mount Hawthorn Perth, Australia on Thursday evening.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said Friday it’s expanding a wastewater surveillance program to enhance efforts to track COVID-19 infections across the United States. “Go on, get the sewer jokes out of your system,” the CDC said in a note in October 2020, shortly after it first launched the scheme, called the National Wastewater Surveillance System (NWSS), which tracks SARS-CoV-2 virus levels in wastewater across 400 sites nationwide to better track the spread of COVID-19 in America. SARS-CoV-2, also known as the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, is the pathogen that causes the disease COVID-19. The CDC...

A judge has granted a temporary restraining order in a lawsuit that sought to end mask mandates in Illinois schools, effectively blocking the masking requirement and other mitigation measures, prompting Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s office to declare it will appeal. Sangamon County Judge Raylene DeWitte Grischow said in a Feb. 4 ruling that the defendants—Pritzker, the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE), and over 140 school districts—are barred from enforcing school mask mandates, exclusion protocols, and COVID-19 testing requirements. The ruling, which explicitly declares some of the measures “null and void,” comes in a case that saw parents file suit against...

Former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani said that if then President Donald Trump had imposed martial law in an effort to overturn the 2020 election results, the former president and many of his aides would have wound up behind bars. That's according to Patrick Byrne, the former head of Overstock, who told The New York Times that Giuliani recently explained to him that he advised Trump against imposing martial law because "we would all end up in prison." The Times has previously reported on Giuliani's opposition to instituting martial law. Despite his own endorsement of outlandish conspiracy theories about voter...

“Jesus was going throughout all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every kind of disease and every kind of sickness among the people” (Matthew 4:23). Gospel means “good news,” and it was the good news of God’s kingdom—around which all of Jesus’ teaching revolved—that He preached throughout Galilee. His emphasis never veered off into politics, economics, social activism, or resolution of personal disputes, which is as it should be for any faithful gospel messenger. Jesus’ primary teaching was always the divine good news—God’s gracious offer to deliver sinners “from the domain of...

"To keep Chris Cuomo quiet about Jeff Zucker’s unethical dealings with Andrew Cuomo, CNN’s parent company is ready to pay Fredo $9 million in hush money, according to the New York Post. After the former CNN chief resigned in disgrace this week, Breitbart News was the first to connect the dots of the Zucker-Gollust-Cuomo affair. Once it was revealed that Zucker was banging his immediate subordinate, Allison Gollust, who had served as then-Gov. Cuomo’s communications director, CNN’s breathtakingly ethical lapses involving the Cuomo brothers suddenly made perfect sense."

The show in the stands will rival the one on the field, if they really enforce this rule.

China has nothing like the critical-care facilities of Western cities. In dozens of sprawling metropolises larger than any in the West, China would be faced with millions more severely ill and dying people than it could possibly care for. An early study found the original Wuhan outbreak, if repeated in the U.S., would require 26 intensive-care beds per 100,000 citizens. The U.S. had these beds. China didn’t and still doesn’t. And yet one irony of the leadership’s decision to treat zero Covid as a national triumph has been a slowness to expand hospital capacity. Its go-it-alone approach on vaccine development,...

Fox News host Tucker Carlson pointed to the City of Baltimore’s under-performing public schools as a crucial factor in the City’s awful crime rate. “It’s because the schools are so bad that the hordes of young people exiting these schools are left without the knowledge and skills they should have been taught that so many end up committing crimes as a means of survival,” Carlson said. “Since many of these crimes are perpetrated against minorities this part of the community is doubly victimized.” Mayor Brandon Scott (D) called Carlson’s remarks “racist vitriol. Carlson well knows that the ancestors of the...

Community “charity” fundraising company GoFundMe demonstrated they’re woke and fascist at the same time by canceling the Freedom Convoy campaign and promising to send the $9+ million raised to “approved charities.” Now, they’re scrambling to fix the PR nightmare that ensued by moving to refund all donations. The company had hoped that by dropping the news late on a Friday that they’d avoid some of the backlash. But it was quickly seized by conservatives across social media as an example of the totalitarian nature of the left. We didn’t let them oppose freedom without voicing our opinions and pushing to...

Live streaming video by Ottawalks. Freedom Convoy 2022 taking place there in Ottawa now. The capital city of Canada. Outside the Parliament building. Downtown Ottawa. Day 9 protest. This is the real deal. This is big time. The overwhelming phrase used is Freedom. Shouted on the street adorning myriad signs. Freedom. Liberté from the Quebec convoyers.

Juiced Up Budgets In Other States Attributed To Federal Aid, But Pritzker Claims Credit In Illinois – Wirepoints By: Mark Glennon* This claim by Gov. JB Pritzker in his State of the State speech on Wednesday just might be his biggest whopper yet, which is saying something: “Let me set the record straight for you — our state budget surpluses would exist even without the money we received from the federal government.” To show why that’s untrue, in this column, we will look at Pritzker’s claim in relation to what’s happening and what is being said in other states. Countless...
