Vice President Pence has spoken out on January 6, 2021. He announced that President Trump said that Pence had the power to overturn the election that day, and that he should have done so… But he didn’t do it. Vice President Pence is winning considerable points with the mass media and the RINOs for saying that President Trump was wrong; Pence, in fact, did not have the power to overturn the election. In truth, this is a typical example of the Left, and of the Left’s enablers, capitalizing on an example when President Trump was correct in fact, but used...

Joe Biden has reportedly narrowed down his search for his Supreme Court nominee down to four potential candidates.“What I’ve done is I’ve taken about four people and done the deep dive on them, meaning these thorough background checks, and see if there’s anything in the background that would make them not qualified,” Biden told NBC news anchor Lester Holt in a recent interview.It’s not said who these four candidates are, but among those reportedly under consideration are U.S. District Court Judge J. Michelle Childs; Ketanji Brown Jackson, who serves on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia...

The depths of Covid corruption at Gundersen Health System can’t fit on one page, and that hospital is just the tip of the iceberg.Andrea Babinski never imagined she would be forced to get a vaccine to keep her nursing job.“When people would say stuff like, ‘Oh, mask mandates today and slippery slope to vaccine mandates tomorrow,’ I thought, ‘No, that’s crazy. That sounds like a conspiracy theory, like wacko people,'” she said. For the medical-surgical nurse who worked at Gundersen Health Systems for 12 years, it was never about politics. Due to several autoimmune issues, Babinski decided medically the shot...

A CDC panel is recommending a longer waiting period in between mRNA covid shots due to a reported spike in heart inflammation cases. This is a remarkable admission that the vaccines have an increased risk of side effects for millions of Americans.“A wider gap between the first two doses of the mRNA Covid-19 vaccines could improve the shots’ effectiveness and help reduce the risk of a rare type of heart inflammation called myocarditis, experts told a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advisory committee on Friday,” as NBC reported.“Members of the group, the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, largely...

CommentaryIf the “Hong Kong security law” couldn’t crater Hong Kong’s financial services industry, perhaps its “zero-COVID” policy could?That’s what the Chinese city is grappling with, as expats within its financial services sector head for the exits due to the city’s draconian quarantine, lockdowns, and restrictions to combat the ongoing CCP virus epidemic.Hong Kong has kept up restrictive quarantines along with strict entry rules since 2020, even as other financial markets in Asia open up. Returning residents from most locations must quarantine for up to three weeks regardless of vaccination status. The punishing three-week quarantine was only recently lowered to two...

Instead of dealing with these truckers and the issues that propelled them across the country in a serious way, the prime minister attacked them en route as a “small fringe minority” who hold “unacceptable views.” There is no justification for any of this and polls show the truckers represent approximately as many Canadians as the number who voted for this government in September.... In fact, they are just trying to avoid two weeks of quarantine when crossing the border, not overthrow the government. Taking on the august airs of a central banker, [Carney] wrote: “I know from experience that crises...

Fox News host Tucker Carlson had an extensive interview with Dr Robert Malone to discuss the background events of the overall COVID-19 pandemic.The hour-long interview is being heralded as one of the deepest and most fascinating discussions as more information surfaces about how the COVID-19 pandemic has been exploited by large institutional interests. WATCH:

Thousands of Britons were tonight told to leave Ukraine immediately over fears of an imminent invasion by Russian forces that Washington spy chiefs warned could be ordered in a matter of days. The Foreign Office updated its advice to tell UK nationals to 'leave now while commercial means are still available' amid mounting concerns they could get caught up in fighting - including a deadly 'aerial bombardment of Kiev' - should Putin give the go-ahead to his 130,000 troops currently massed near Ukraine's borders. The urgent government update came less than 24 hours after the US also issued an evacuation...

Effectiveness against emergency department or urgent care visits in that same period went from 87 percent in two months to 66 percent by the fourth month after the...

Sintilimab was tested only in China, a large factor in the advisory panel's vote against agency approval of the drug, the Times reports. The...

Blocking a roadway with a stopped vehicle might be construed as a crime. And be punishable. Driving around a block (slowly enough to avoid the traffic ahead of you) is not. If you have the numbers -- and I think we do -- then: (a) Anyone who needs to peel off and refuel, or take care of other business, can do so without harming the cause; and (b) Not only trucks, but cars, vans, and even motorcycles and bicycles can join in the fun. The beauty is: what can police do? Pull over an individual vehicle? Block a lane? That...

RLANDO, Fla. (AP) — A medical examiner in Florida said Thursday that comedian Bob Saget died from an accidental blow to the head, likely from a backwards fall.

An autopsy report released later Thursday showed that Saget had an abrasion on his scalp, a fracture at the base of his skull,...

Voters won’t be able to use drop boxes, nor may they let someone else mail or return their absentee ballot to clerks in the April general election.MADISON, Wis. (CN) — The Wisconsin Supreme Court on Friday declined to extend, through an upcoming April election, a stay of a recent lower court order banning the use of absentee ballot drop boxes and the return of an absentee ballot by someone other than the voter. The decision casts further doubt on these election practices in future Wisconsin elections, including consequential contests for a U.S. Senate seat and the governorship this fall. Taxpayers...
