If not stopped—and reversed-- this is the end of the Great Experiment and the Land of Opportunity. A new federal terror advisory contains a threat assessment that characterizes Americans who “mislead” others into questioning government-approved messages as being on par with terrorists. That is as anti-American messaging as could be imagined. America was founded on questioning governments, foreign and domestic. And that has been her saving grace, the reason for her unique success. The assessment specifically identifies those who engage in “the proliferation of false or misleading narratives, which sow discord or undermine public trust in U.S. government institutions” as...

“Podcaster Joe Rogan has apologized to Spotify. While also addressing the controversy around his podcast. “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 so much heat from it, “I’m not trying to promote misinformation, I’m not trying to be controversial,” Rogan added. “I’ve never tried to do anything with this podcast other than to just talk to people…“I do all the scheduling myself, and I don’t always get it right.” He certainly didn’t get it right when he scheduled author T.J. English,...

It’s time for the restrictions to end.... We are now lagging behind many European countries which have taken the coronavirus seriously throughout, but have come to realize that we are entering a different phase of the pandemic and we cannot indefinitely impose severe restrictions on the lives and liberties of free citizens. At the beginning of the month, Denmark became the first country to lift virtually all COVID restrictions. It did this despite skyrocketing cases, because it had become apparent that vaccination had cut the link between case counts and severe outcomes, such as hospitalization and death.... Those who are...

If you can't get the backing of former President Donald Trump, perhaps that of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) will suffice. According to four "longtime Republican operatives" working on competitive GOP primaries nationwide, an MTG endorsement is "not only considered as welcome, but also as one that should be actively courted," The Daily Beast reports, noting the congressmember's power lies in her direct line to the former president, as well as her large network of grassroots donors. "It is stunning," one source told The Daily Beast. "Her popularity among much of the base and what she brings to a campaign...

“Canada has never been so strong and together as we are now,” Trudeau alleged on Wednesday.-----------------------------------------------------Trudeau's wretched smear-job of truckers highlights sorry state of Canadian leadershipNational Post Friday February 11, 2022 by Conrad Black https://nationalpost.com/opinion/conrad-black-trudeaus-wretched-smear-job-of-truckers-highlights-sorry-state-of-canadian-leadership ----------------------------------------------------- Trudeau Viciously Heckled In Parliament For Refusing To Relinquish His COVID Tyranny (video) https://odysee.com/@BannedYouTubeVideos:4/Trudeau-Viciously-Heckled-In-Parliament:1

CNN anchor Anderson Cooper announced live on air Thursday that he and his parenting partner have welcomed their second child, a boy. Sebastian Luke Maisani-Cooper weighed 6.8 pounds at birth and was born via surrogate. Cooper and Benjamin Maisani also have an almost 22-month-old son, Wyatt. “He is healthy and happy, and even his occasional hiccups are to me adorable,” Cooper told viewers. “He mostly just sleeps and eats, and he certainly poops, but he already seems like a wise and thoughtful little chap.” Sebastian, like Wyatt, will be raised by both Cooper and Maisani. “We are co-parents. Wyatt calls...

Wokeism offers pre-packaged, shrink-wrapped, off-the-shelf righteousness to anyone who bends the knee. It requires little effort, sacrifice, or intelligence. Simply believe, complain, criticize, and accuse—it’s that easy. In exchange, you’re rewarded with a flattering identity: you’re now a crusader/warrior/hero who vanquishes villains (imaginary villains, but villains nonetheless)—all at seemingly no cost. It’s free handouts of meaning in life. It can seem quite attractive. But there’s a catch: it drains away your humanity. There’s also a hidden cost: it requires a significant lack of self-awareness. This lack of self-awareness creates a crucial vulnerability. Wokeism is ultimately a religion for the faithless....

Tucker Carlson (see below) had a somewhat ebullient segment about the fact that the Canadian truckers represent the rise of the ordinary people, while the response from Canada’s leadership class bespeaks fear and helplessness. I’m sorry to say that I believe Tucker is wrong and that things are getting very dangerous for the truckers. They still have options but, whenever you have to depend on the goodwill of a tyrant, his police state, and his military, things aren’t going well. That’s especially true of Canada because, on May 1, 2020, Canadians gave up their guns. In some ways, the Canadian...

As momentum from the Freedom Convoy in Canada mounts and works its way into the US, and similar convoys spring up in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand, people are collectively standing up to two years of COVID restrictions, lies, misery, and abuse at the hands of our government masters. And we owe it all to Canada’s truckers. Oh, Canada’s truckers! We love you! But it’s not just the truckers. It’s their families traveling with them. It’s the ordinary citizens bringing them fuel, hot drinks, and meals. It’s the throngs of people braving the cold and raising maple leaf flags in...

"And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man. For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness: All these evil things come from within, and defile the man." "The woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation; and she besought him that he would cast forth the devil out of her daughter. But Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it...

The “heavy” DDoS attack on GiveSendGo took place when the platform started collecting donations for Freedom Convoy 2022 campaign. GoFundMe’s rival GiveSendGo claims it was a victim of “heavy DDoS and bot attacks” on Friday, leading to server downtime as soon as the site started raising cash for the Canadian trucker convoy. According to the website despite technical glitches, the Christian fundraising platform raised more than $1.35 million within 12 hours. It is worth noting that the Freedom Convoy 2022 campaign is seeking to raise $16 million. As per a video message from campaign organizer Tamara Lich, the convoy aims...

I’ve spoken to 100 of the protestors gathered in the Canadian capital. What's happening is far bigger than the vaccine mandates. ... They came from across the country. Vaxxed, unvaxxed, white, black, Chinese, Sikh, Indian, alone or with their wives and kids. They huddled around campfires. They set up pop-up kitchens and tents with block captains doling out coffee and blankets. They honked (and honked and honked). They blasted “We Are the World.” And everywhere you looked, someone was waving the Maple Leaf. It dipped to 4 degrees. The mayor declared a state of emergency. And they didn’t budge. The...

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu's social media town hall got highjacked this week by fed-up city residents and labor unions fuming over the new mayor's strident vaccine and mask mandates - even as other cities and states around the US are loosening pandemic restrictions. Wu, who took office just three months ago, upset many of her constituents with her vaccine passports and mandates for indoor dining, bars, businesses, schools, and city workers. She announced she does not plan to lift mask mandates for public schools at the end of February.

The U.S. Army has unveiled a new climate change plan that includes an electric fleet of non-combat vehicles and a desire to reduce greenhouse gas emissions at military bases. The woke new plan was released amid rising tensions overseas, with President Joe Biden telling Americans to leave Ukraine immediately and warning them that they could not expect to be rescued by U.S. troops if Russia launches an invasion. The Army's climate change strategy, published in a report Tuesday, aims to make its bases more self-efficient and to move to an electric fleet of non-combat vehicles by 2035.

Hollywood Democratic heavyweights have thrown their weight behind a campaign to recall the 'woke' district attorney of Los Angeles, with Joe Biden's nominee to be ambassador to Norway and George Clooney's producing partner among those demanding George Gascon step down. Gascon, a 67-year-old former assistant chief of Los Angeles Police Department, took over as district attorney in the heavily-Democrat city in December 2020 and immediately embarked on a progressive justice reform agenda - eliminating the use of sentencing enhancements for gang membership, certain uses of guns, and for prior convictions. As LA battles rising crime, critics are blaming Gascon's 'soft'...

Sen. Joe Manchin teamed up with Republicans to introduce a bill that would ban the distribution of drug paraphernalia, and two Republicans appalled by a viral report alleging that the Biden administration was going to fund handing out crack pipes to drug addicts have introduced the 'HUNTER Act' which would do the same. Though Health and Human Services (HHS) has denied that crack pipes were ever to be included in the 'safe smoking kits' they will fund, Reps. Lauren Boebert of Colorado and Dan Bishop of North Carolina told Fox News that the Biden administration got caught 'red-handed.' HHS is...

Former Detroit Police Chief and gubernatorial candidate James Craig on Friday announced his support for the Canadian trucker protest, infuriating Michigan Democrats. “I stand with the truckers. I support all working people who are standing up for personal freedom. What we are seeing is a tremendous lack of leadership from Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, President Joe Biden and Gov. Gretchen Whitmer,” Craig said in a statement. “Instead of focusing on the protestors and demonizing the truckers, these career politicians should be focused on how their irresponsible pandemic response is hurting our economies.”
