How is the mood in Virginia these days? It appears to be a bit litigious. Last month, seven school boards announced they were suing Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin over his executive order banning mask mandates in schools. The ACLU is also suing Youngkin over the order, despite the fact that it used to sue to protect liberties, not infringe on them. Youngkin, meanwhile, is suing the Loudoun County School Board, which is also being sued by parents incensed over its mask policies as well as all of its other policies … This brings us back to Youngkin. The man who...

Perhaps the most important long-term fallout of the Chinese Coronavirus pandemic has been the exposure of the venality and politicization within the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as well as other federal health agencies such as the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). Nothing personifies this corruption more than the FDA’s absurdly close ties to the pharmaceutical companies. Thus, their refusal to recognize proven inexpensive therapeutics and their unorthodox approach in licensing certain Pfizer and Moderna mRNA Covid-19 -- vaccines that are not offered for sale in the United States. What was the FDA’s and the pharmaceutical companies’ endgame in this...

Who knew that GoFundMe operates as the woke court of cancellation culture? As an utterly self-nominated moral clearing house? ... The intrusion of the tech monarchs into the politics of our democracies is grim and dangerous.... [The Protest] started around mandates and triple vaccines as they affected a single industry, but it is now so much more. It is among other things, a contest over civil rights; the guttering of the Charter; about Canadian politics as seen from the metropolises of central Canada versus the view from the always less regarded concerns and sensibilities of rural and Western Canada. Also,...

NEW KFC OFFERING. Remember when Playboy magazine reportedly offered Sarah Palin $4,000,000 to pose nude in an upcoming issue? Then, Michelle Obama was offered $50.00 by National Geographic? And remember when KFC offered a "Hillary" meal, consisting of two small breasts and two large thighs? Now KFC is offering the "Biden Cabinet Bucket." It consists of nothing but left wings and assholes. Just keeping you up to date… More reflections China claims that corona-virus came from an old bat, but Nancy Pelosi denied having been involved. "Payday" candy bar is changing its name because it's offensive to those who don't...

Just take a look at what's been seen in some of the third world airlines with less-than-qualified pilots. The “woke” culture has infected large areas of our lives over the last few years. Much of it has just been annoying, but a new example could actually be dangerous. That is the push to hire and staff our airline cockpits with pilots chosen primarily for their gender or race, which I believe to be a very dangerous concept. Before I comment further, I should explain my background and credentials to speak on the matter. I flew for nearly thirty-seven years, the...

Republican Representative Adam Kinzinger blasted twice-impeached ex-president Donald Trump as someone he wants his newborn son to know as “the worst president the United States of America ever had” just days after the Republican National Committee censured him for participating in the House probe into the 6 January 2021 insurrection. Mr Kinzinger, who recently announced he would not stand for office in this year’s November midterm elections, told CNN’s New Day host John Berman he wants to make sure his son, who was born just three weeks ago, can “get a full accounting” of the worst attack on the Capitol...

resident Joe Biden has accepted the resignation of top White House scientist Eric Lander after an internal investigation into allegations that he bullied and mistreated staff was made public. Biden accepted Lander's letter "with gratitude for his work at [the Office of Science and Technology Policy] on the pandemic, the cancer moonshot, climate change, and other priorities," according to press secretary Jen Psaki. "He knows Dr. Lander will continue to make important contributions to the scientific community in the years ahead," she told reporters Monday evening. Psaki was grilled by reporters Monday afternoon about Lander's position within the administration after...

CENSUREY OVERLOAD — The fallout from the RNC’s weekend censure of Reps. LIZ CHENEY (R-Wyo.) and ADAM KINZINGER (R-Ill.) spread to Capitol Hill on Monday: Hill Republicans returned to town and lit into Chair RONNA MCDANIEL. Senate Republicans went on the record to say that looking back to 2020 is a losing strategy that won’t help the party flip both chambers of Congress. And they’re furious that the RNC would dub the activities of Jan. 6 “legitimate political discourse.” We’re not just talking here about an expectedMITT ROMNEY rebuke — though the Utah Republican certainly called his niece’s decision “very...

Pray For The Peace of JerusalemEphesians 6The Armor of God 10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your...

A Republican candidate in the packed Republican Primary for Oregon Governor has been forced to admit he was a swinger after his posts on a private Facebook group were leaked ahead of the race. Stan Pulliam, who is also the mayor of his hometown of Sandy, told his local paper that he and his wife of 12 years MacKensey 'ultimately decided' that the lifestyle 'wasn't for us,' but that he is 'not ashamed' of the decisions they 'made in the privacy of [their] own home.' The 40-year-old told the Williamette Week that he and MacKensey, 'explored relationships, mutual relationships with...

Democratic strategist James Carville cursed out unvaccinated individuals on his podcast last week, saying anyone without a vaccine was a "piece of ----" and he wanted to punch them in the face. On Thursday's "Politics War Room with James Carville & Al Hunt," Carville and Hunt took a listener question wondering why President Biden would not pass a bill that bars unvaccinated citizens from interstate travel. SNIP "I wish what they’d do is pass a law to make you immune from liability if you punch some unvaccinated person right in the face, which I’d really like to do. If you...
