"Attorneys for Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann filed a motion Thursday to dismiss the case against him in Special Counsel John Durham’s investigation, claiming a case of 'extraordinary prosecutorial overreach,'" Fox News reports. An indictment details the charges against Sussmann, who failed to disclose his work for the Clinton campaign after telling the FBI President Donald Trump was colluding with the Russian government to win the 2016 presidential election. He pleaded not guilty and his...

Candela has already sold more than 100 C-8s, with production set to begin soonCandela VIEW 6 IMAGES Candela aims to smash electric boat range records with its C-8, using a hydrofoil system that eliminates as much as 80 percent of the drag you'd get from a conventional design. The first prototype C-8 has now flown, and Candela has released video. The marine sector is going to be hard to electrify. It takes a lot of energy to push through water, as David Hasselhoff would attest, and lithium batteries carry a fairly depressing 2 percent of the energy content of an...

President Joe Biden boasted Thursday that he traveled back home to Delaware as much as possible during his presidency. “Every time I get a chance, I go home to Delaware,” he said during a speech in Ohio. “You think I’m joking? I’m not.”

NEW YORK (AP) — Former President Donald Trump must answer questions under oath in New York state’s civil investigation into his business practices, a judge ruled Thursday. Judge Arthur Engoron ordered Trump and his two eldest children, Ivanka and Donald Trump Jr., to comply with subpoenas issued in December by New York Attorney General Letitia James. Trump and his two children must sit for a deposition within 21 days, Engoron said. Engoron issued the ruling after a two-hour hearing with lawyers for the Trumps and James’ office. “In the final analysis, a State Attorney General commences investigating a business entity,...

The Conscious Cultivation of IgnoranceThe human brain has a tendency to impose binary cognitive schemas upon the sometimes unfathomable complexity of the world around us. For example, numerous scholars of nationalism have suggested that it is often quite difficult to build a strong and durable national project in the absence of a threatening “other” whose supposed cultural inferiority and innate aggression is said to imperil the integrity of the “home” collective. It is thus no accident, as the anthropologists Frykman and Löfgren have shown in the particular case of contemporary Sweden, that campaigns of individual and collective hygiene were often...

The Dominican Republic became the first country in the Latin America region to scrap all of its COVID-19 restrictions - as infections dwindle despite barely half the nation being vaccinated. President Luis Abinader announced the suspension of the preventive measures while addressing the Caribbean nation Wednesday evening. Abinader did away with the mandates that obligated the use of a face mask, social distancing and coronavirus passports to enter public places.

Joe Biden's poll numbers are continuing to plummet even in the super-Blue state of California, with more voters disapproving than approving of his current job performance. A new survey by UC Berkeley Institute of Governmental Studies showed the current administration is quickly losing support, with approval of Kamala Harris and California's two Democrat senators also dwindling in the polls. It is another dire signal for the White House and the Democrats that they could be subjected to a Republican bloodbath in the midterm elections.

Lawyers for former President Donald Trump dropped two bombshells during a virtual court hearing in Manhattan Thursday: one accused New York Attorney General Letitia James of "prosecutorial misconduct" and another said the former president would testify before a criminal grand jury if he was granted immunity. The attorney general is engaging in "prosecutorial misconduct that this nation has never seen," Trump's defense lawyer Alina Habba told the judge during the at times contentious hearing, citing numerous instances where James publically criticized Trump. During her 2018 campaign for attorney general, James called Trump an "illegitimate president" and warned that he "should...

In 1948, when he was a young U.S. Air Force pilot ferrying humanitarian aid in the Berlin airlift, Gail Halvorsen encountered a group of German children standing by the runway at Tempelhof Airport. As the kids peppered him with questions, he reached in his pocket and found two sticks of gum, which he broke into pieces and passed around the crowd. But it wasn’t nearly enough. Looking at the faces of all the kids who had been left out, he had a brainstorm. Tomorrow when he flew in his load of cargo, he promised the children, he would drop small...

My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell said he plans to parachute in free pillows to Canadians protesting COVID-19 mandates after a shipment of 10,000 pillows were blocked at the border earlier this week. Lindell, a staunch supporter of Donald Trump, confirmed that a truck loaded with My Pillows had been denied entry into Canada at the Michigan border on Tuesday, so he intends to drop his products to Freedom Convoy protesters from a helicopter, the Daily Beast reported. 'We need to get the My Pillows to the people,' Lindell said, explaining that the pillows will be equipped with 'little parachutes' to...

Hillary Clinton was met by protestors on Thursday as she entered the Times Square Sheraton ahead of her headline address at the New York Democratic Committee's nominating convention. Clinton will give the comeback speech after she brushed off findings by special counsel Robert Durham that she spied on Donald Trump's campaign.

As the drug overdose crisis in the United States exploded during the coronavirus pandemic – killing an unprecedented 100,000 people in 12 months – Black and Indigenous Americans were increasingly likely to become the victims. Drug overdose rates in America surged by 31% in 2020, according to figures from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as the pandemic left many facing lockdowns, and economic and emotional strain. But researchers at the University of California Los Angeles have found that the death rate surged most dramatically among Black and Indigenous Americans, who saw a staggering increase of 49% and...

Somehow this needs war on oil needs to stop, it's hurting every aspect of everyday life here in the U.S.

Hillary Clinton responded to the recent finding by Special Counsel John Durham that a lawyer working for her 2016 campaign had paid a tech firm that covertly spied on the Trump campaign and even his presidency.

So it's a day that ends in Y. The more his misdeeds are exposed, the more they lie. For those interested in reality, here's a good...

Far-left Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau faced another round of heckling and widespread laughter in Parliament on Tuesday, prompting audible cackling at his use of the term “responsible leadership” after invoking the never-before-used Emergencies Act against anti-mandate protesters this week. The Emergencies Act is a law passed in 1988 that allows for widespread federal civil rights violations in the event of violent civil unrest, terrorism, and other emergencies. The law replaced the War Measures Act which granted similar sweeping powers and was last used by Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, the current head of government’s father, against secessionist terrorists in Quebec....

DOUBLE YOLKS EXPLAINED Female chickens — hens — are born with two ovaries, just like humans. As the chick matures into an adult hen, her right ovary shrivels up, leaving her left ovary to handle the task of producing and releasing eggs. When we refer to the eggs that come from a hen’s ovaries, we aren’t talking about the shell and whites. We’re only talking about the round yellow part we know as “yolks.” The other stuff — what we know as a complete egg — comes later in the process.When it works as it should, the whole process is...

SALINAS, Calif. (KION-TV)-- Salinas Police said a case of 'mistaken identity' led to the tragic killing of a young couple in early February.

House Intel Committee Member Rep. Mike Rogers (R-OH) appeared on Fox News to address the Durham findings that the Clinton campaign’s lawyer Michael Sussmann had paid a tech firm to effectively ‘spy’ on the Trump campaign and while Donald Trump was in the White House. “This is basically Special Counsel Durham sending a memo to Michael Sussmann saying he’s not being well served by his lawyers,” Rogers said. “The pleading sets out allegations, evidence that they intend to admit into court that relate to third parties.” “People besides Michael Sussmann himself, of which, though, he would be caught up,” he...
