The Coca-Cola Company continues to remain silent about China's genocide of Uyghur Muslims amid the company's involvement in the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing. Coca-Cola's participation has been questioned by critics as China continues its ethnic cleansing of Uyghurs in the Xinjiang region. "The Coca-Cola Company is focused on helping communities address their sustainability challenges, but we can’t do it alone," the company says on its website. "That is why we’ve formed key nonprofit partnerships with incredible organizations to progress sustainability initiatives such as women’s empowerment, water replenishment, sustainable packaging and climate action."

On Friday, following co-host Whoopi Goldberg’s incendiary comments about the Holocaust earlier in the week, “The View” co-host Sara Haines ripped people who felt that Goldberg’s two-week suspension from the show was insufficient punishment, pontificating, “To learn from a moment is all we can ask of anyone. And prioritizing punitive measures at the expense of the message/issue (and teaching moment) are misguided.” Prior to that Instagram message, Haines had posted a photograph of her and Goldberg snapping a selfie on the set of the show, captioning it, “This just popped up and warmed my heart. That’s my Whoops!!!!” as The...

The Biden administration botches relations with Russia while its experts tell each other flattering fictionsVladimir Putin doesn’t need to send troops into Ukraine. He has already achieved his strategic goals — for now.The leading European Union powers, France and Germany, are competing against each other for Putin’s ear, while Britain is competing against them by shipping arms to Ukraine. The United States is exposed as an unreliable protector, unable to defend its overextended position on Russia’s doorstep in Ukraine. NATO is divided and powerless, a shadow of imperial overreach.A decrepit caste of corrupt leaders is incapable of managing a controlled...

DALLAS — The State Fair of Texas traditionally takes place over 24 fall days in Fair Park. But a new reality series hopes to break it out of that box, putting the annual Fair Park-hosted affair on a national stage over the course of multiple weeks, starting this spring. A just-announced reality show called Deep Fried Dynasty will make its debut on the cable network A&E in March, and it promises to focus on (according to its own words) the "grease-soaked geniuses" and "big personalities behind the mouth-watering food at the State Fair of Texas." Per the extended show description...

For centuries, farmers have bred livestock and crops for desirable traits such as faster growth, better taste, and resistance to disease. Now, a new kind of rancher is following in their footsteps: mealworm breeders. Last week, France-based Ÿnsect announced it will spend nearly $5 million on the world’s first large-scale initiative to use state-of-the-art genetics for breeding beetle larvae and other insects that can be used as animal feed, fertilizer—and even food for people. “We’re talking about accelerating the ability to use the genomes of millions of insects” for selective breeding, says insect geneticist Christine Picard of Indiana University–Purdue University...

Despite the blizzard of Chinese PR, CCP officals cannot snow potential viewers and have them forget all the damage that nation has done in the past two years.This past week has been filled with karmic news (CNN’s Jeff Zucker resigning, Whoopi Goldberg’s suspension, Meta/Facebook shares plummeting).It’s as if someone baked a schadenfreude cake and is now dishing it out. And the frosting on that confection is this: The televised Winter Olympics games in Beijing, China, are a ratings bust.Thursday’s primetime coverage of the Beijing Winter Olympics averaged 7.25 million viewers on NBC, marking the smallest primetime Olympic audience ever on...

More than a dozen US states have sided with the Mexican government in its lawsuit against US gun manufacturers where it accuses them of being liable for a rise in gun violence in the nation. A coalition of 14 attorneys general, from 13 Democratic states and Washington DC, filed a brief with the US District Court for the District of Massachusetts this week arguing that gunmakers are not shielded from responsibility over where their firearms wind up. Last August, the Mexican government sued some of America’s biggest gunmakers including Smith & Wesson and Glock claiming they were knowingly contributing to...

Two-thirds of Americans feel the country is going in the wrong direction. The financial markets are in upheaval, sending waves of uncertainty through the economy and almost certainly through your home. Inflation is raging. Consumer spending is falling. Three-quarters of Americans say that they are suffering from “COVID news fatigue,” impatience with the ceaseless worry about the virus. The two parties are fighting more than ever. Sensible people are raising the specter of “civil war.” Sober people are worrying about real war with Russia and maybe someday with China. And yet GDP is rising by an annual rate of 6.7...

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) on Sunday called on President Biden to not select a Supreme Court nominee who is “to the furthest left,” instead urging the president to choose someone “who will enjoy some level of bipartisan support.” “There are many, many exceptionally well-qualified African-American women who could -- who could move forward into this position,” Murkowski told co-anchor Jake Tapper on CNN’s “State of the Union.”

Sen. Marco Rubio said Sunday that “vice presidents can’t simply decide not to certify” the result of an election, distancing himself from the repeated claims of former President Donald Trump. Mr. Trump has insisted that former Vice President Mike Pence could have changed the results of the 2020 election. “I just don’t think a vice president has that power,” Mr. Rubio said on CBS’s “Face the Nation.” “If President Trump runs for reelection, I believe he would defeat Joe Biden — and I don’t want Kamala Harris to have the power as vice president to overturn that election,” he said....

Remember less than a year ago when CNN's Chris Cillizza denounced "gerrymandering" as a heinous attempt by Republicans to draw "outlandish legislative and congressional districts for purely political reasons?" Well, suddenly such an act is a good thing. How did that happen? Well, because Democrats are now the ones drawing the outlandish legislative and congressional districts for purely political reasons.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. — Alabama welcomes visitors at the “First White House of the Confederacy,” a historic home next to the state Capitol where Confederate President Jefferson Davis lived with his family in the early months of the Civil War. The museum managed by the state’s Department of Finance says it hosts nearly 100,000 people a year, many of them school children on field trips to see such things as the “relic room” where Davis’ slippers and pocket watch are preserved. Near the gift shop, a framed article describes Davis as an American patriot who accomplished “one of the most amazing...

Arizona Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake, a former Phoenix reporter and news anchor, laid down a challenge to Arizonans and to President Joe Biden during an interview broadcast on Friday. Lake told the TimCast podcast that she would not ask for federal government permission to finish sections of border wall that were not yet completed during then-President Donald Trump’s tenure while essentially daring Biden to “arrest” her for doing so. “Illegals don’t ask permission to break the law. I won’t ask permission to build the wall,” Lake noted in a tweet containing a video clip segment of her interview in...

SWAN SONG: The Heavens Declare the Glory of GodPsalm 19:1-4(3)1. To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David: 2. The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament proclaims his handiwork: 3.

Olympic chiefs have denied they were responsible for allowing Russian President Vladimir Putin to flounce around the Olympic opening ceremony without a mask. Putin, it was revealed, was invited by the Chinese Government rather than Olympic chiefs and was not on their guest list. A source said Putin declined the offer join every other person in the VIP box and the iconic Bird's Nest Stadium in masking up. He had earlier been in talks with China President Xi Jinping where the two leaders talked about the Covid-19 global battle to curtail the virus. An Olympics spokesman told Mail Online: 'He...
