Kimmel: Durham story is for those "Fox News viewers" and their "soft, oatmeal-like brains." pic.twitter.com/037MpHU0wh — Alex Christy (@alexchristy17) February 16, 2022 It took the regime four days to figure out how to respond to Durham.

The Liberals gave grants to Black Lives Matter, the BC Civil Liberties Association and the Anti-Hate Network through a government agency, The Canadian Race Relations Foundation. BLM protests brought riots and violence to American cities yet Trudeau gave the group's Canadian arm over $8,000. The Anti-Hate Network already received well over $200,000 to be hunter-killers of the enemies of Trudeau and the Race Relations Foundation gave them another $6,000. The BC Civil Liberties Association — noticeably silent during the last two years of civil rights violations — was the recipient of $10,000 from the same foundation.

ViacomCBS is getting a new name: Paramount. The media behemoth — which was created through the merger of CBS and Viacom in 2019 — said the rebrand is meant to focus on the company’s goal of becoming a major player in streaming. It is also, plainly, just a better name. It’ll also start streaming all Paramount movies exclusively on Paramount Plus starting in 2024 in the US, following their theatrical runs. Paramount includes major TV networks, like CBS, Nickelodeon, and MTV; the publisher Simon & Schuster; and its titular film studio. But the company is increasingly focused on streaming, where...

On Friday, Special Counsel John Durham filed a motion relating to a defense firm’s potential conflict of interest in the Michael Sussmann case. The conflict itself is certainly intriguing, with Sussmann’s lawyers at Latham & Watkins LLP (Latham) having represented potential witnesses in the case, including Perkins Coie, former Perkins Coie (and Clinton Campaign general counsel) Marc Elias, the Hillary Clinton Campaign, and Hillary for America. The issue that made more noise, however, was Durham’s disclosure that Rodney Joffe – a contractor with deep ties to the Clintons, and what appears to be a deep hatred for Trump – had...

Texas conservatives, George P. Bush is a running as a Republican for state Attorney General against Republican incumbent Ken Paxton. Paxton is, a proven conservative who proved his bonafides by filing a federal lawsuit against the “swing states” in the 2020 election. The lawsuit charged that the swing states intentionally diluted the votes of voters from other states by depriving voters of their 14th Amendment right to equal protection when they illegally adopted rules which invited rampant voter fraud. George P. Bush is running on a platform that he will “fight for a stronger border” because he is endorsed by...

Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. - Matthew 5:4 If you have spiritual poverty and true humility, they will lead you to godly sorrow. That’s what Jesus meant by “mourn” here in this second beatitude. Paul told the Corinthians about this kind of sorrow: “For the sorrow that is according to the will of God produces a repentance without regret, leading to salvation, but the sorrow of the world produces death. For behold what earnestness this very thing, this godly sorrow, has produced in you” (2 Cor. 7:10–11). Of the nine different New Testament words that...

Joseph had a vision that his life would be used mightily by God, but that vision seemed like a pipe dream after his jealous brothers sold him into slavery. The following years of Joseph’s life were filled with hardship and injustice. Just when Joseph seemed to get back on his feet, he was falsely accused of attempted rape and sent to prison. Finally, after years of turmoil, Joseph ended up serving in Pharaoh’s house. Pharaoh eventually appointed Joseph ruler over all of Egypt. Beloved, that’s how God works; he was preparing a man to save a remnant. Indeed, in every...

With the federal Emergencies Act now invoked, federal ministers say “the work begins now” to implement it, with a desire to not have another weekend of protests in the nation’s capital. This comes as the government has revealed part of their motivation for enacting the powers was out of concern for “serious violence” for “political or ideological” achievements. “We now have the tools to do what needs to be done,” Emergency Preparedness Minister Bill Blair told reporters Tuesday following a cabinet meeting. “That work begins now, and we have to continue with that work until we get the job done.”...

I don't know where Turley found this clip, but it is hilarious.

FIRST ON FOX: Special Counsel John Durham’s investigation has "accelerated," and more people are "cooperating" and coming before the federal grand jury than has previously been reported, a source familiar with the probe told Fox News. The source told Fox News Monday that Durham has run his investigation "very professionally," and, unlike Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation, his activities, and witness information and cooperation status are rarely, if ever, leaked. "Durham does this right and keeps it a secret," the source said, adding that there has been "much more activity" in Durham’s investigation "than has been visible to the public."...

Some of the problems with our supply chain stem from the backlog at the ports in Los Angeles and Long Beach. Staffing issues, environmental regulations, and, well, California just being California, have made the situation worse. Thankfully, not all supply chain traffic travels through California. Ports in the Southeastern U.S. have worked hard to help relieve the supply chain crisis. The Port of Savannah on the Georgia coast is one example. January marked the 18th consecutive record month for the port. ... Shippers have begun to see Savannah and other ports in the Southeast as alternatives to the mess that...

Ethanol made from corn grown across millions of acres of American farmland has become the country’s premier renewable fuel, touted as a low-carbon alternative to traditional gasoline and a key component of the country’s efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. But a new study, published this week, finds that corn-based ethanol may actually be worse for the climate than fossil-based gasoline, and has other environmental downsides. “We thought and hoped it would be a climate solution and reduce and replace our reliance on gasoline,” said Tyler Lark, a researcher with the Nelson Institute for Environmental Studies at the University of...

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg wants his employees to call each other “Metamates” — and the new moniker is sparking widespread mockery, both inside and outside the company.

Judicial Watch and CatholicVote announced Wednesday they have filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit to obtain communication records between federal agencies and various Catholic charity groups that allegedly helped illegal immigrants. ---snip--- CatholicVote.org is a lobbying organization of Americans who believe the "timeless truths of the Catholic faith are good for America." "American Catholics deserve to know the full extent of the U.S. government’s role in funding and coordinating with Catholic church affiliated agencies at the border, and what role these agencies played in the record surge of illegal immigrants over the past year," Burch said. "We will...

A shockingly large price bubble appears to have formed in the real estate market. Although it’s impossible to predict economic crashes with certainty, a key economic indicator suggests the U.S. housing market is on the verge of an unprecedented crash, one that could end up being the biggest in America’s history. Following the 2008 stock and real estate market crashes, the Federal Reserve, Democratic-led Congress, and the presidential administrations of George W. Bush and Barack Obama began an unprecedented effort to pump new dollars into the financial system — and, to a lesser extent, the economy at large. The...

Sign the petition to tax white people at a higher rate to help the "minority" community.

The emergence of a Canadian dictatorship is no laughing matter, even if it is Trudeau. The trauma in Canada serves as a stark reminder that even the politest nation can suddenly be turned on its head by a tyrant wearing blackface. If Trudeau is coming for your bank account, consider these tips for keeping your money safe. 1) Convert all your money to Tim Horton's gift cards: This is now the most stable form of currency in Canada. 2) Hide it under something Trudeau can't move, like a 10-pound dumbbell: His max is only 7 pounds. 3) Write quotes from...

The Biden administration missed another deadline to hold quarterly onshore oil drilling lease sales after a federal court ruled it was legally required to do so. The Department of the Interior (DOI) defied the June 2021 court ruling which ordered the administration to halt its ban on new oil and gas leases, the Western Energy Alliance — a fossil fuel industry group that challenged the ban — said Wednesday. In August 2021, the DOI vowed to publish notices of competitive sales in December and hold a lease sale 45 days later, two promises it failed to keep, in court filings....

Two of the UK’s leading mayors are calling for urgent action to prepare for mass migration to cities due to the climate emergency, as a major report into the issue launches at the UN headquarters in New York on Wednesday. Mass migration to some of the world’s cities due to the climate emergency is already under way and the World Bank has estimated that unless significant action is taken, 216 million people could be on the move by 2050. In 2020, 30 million people were displaced due to the climate crisis, and 70% of people internally displaced due to the...

In The Courtship, which premieres on Sunday, March 6 at 8 p.m. ET, 16 men will compete to sweep one woman off her feet.
