The average is just pennies away from the all-time high set in 2008 when the price was at $4.11 per gallon. Experts warn that prices are not going to slow down anytime soon amid the skyrocketing inflation and energy crisis already growing under the Biden administration. “As Russia’s war on Ukraine continues to evolve and we head into a season where gas...

The Biden administration is considering a possible ban of oil imports from Russia to the United States, but "no decision has been made at this time," an administration official told Fox News.

Dr. Andrew Hill, tasked with studying the cheap, widely available drug, undermined his own findings.. LIVERPOOL, England — Providence will occasionally place a man at a key juncture of history, a position of great moment where the fate of millions lies in his hands. Andrew Hill, M.D., was just such a man, in just such a position. In October 2020 he was asked by the WHO to review the rapidly accumulating evidence that Ivermectin was a safe and effective treatment for COVID. To say there was a lot riding on Hill’s findings was an understatement. If it turned out that...

Utah Governor Spencer Cox said that he plans to veto legislation passed on Friday that would ban transgender student-athletes from competing in girls sports within the state. Without his support, Utah is unlikely to join the 11 other states, all Republican-led, that have recently enacted bans on transgender girls wanting to compete in school sports leagues that correspond with their gender identity. In vowing to veto the bill, Cox directly addressed transgender student-athletes, who he said found themselves the subject of political debate through no fault of their own. I just want them to know that it's gonna be okay....

A Russian commander captured by Ukraine condemned Moscow’s “genocide” invasion — saying in a remarkable televised statement that the troops were duped into believing Kyiv had been overthrown by Nazis and needed liberating. National Guard Lt. Col. Astakhov Dmitry Mikhailovich, who was captured along with two other soldiers, said he had been told they were being sent to help Ukraine because it was “dominated by a fascist regime” and that “nationalists and Nazis had seized power.” “Obviously, this information was unilateral information,” Mikhailovich told reporters in a video that emerged Monday. National Guard Lt. Col. Astakhov Dmitry Mikhailovich condemned Moscow’s...

Over the past week, we first noted that amid broad economic sanctions, there were numerous Russian gold refiners on the LBMA’s “Good Delivery” list, and subsequently we said that this “begged the question as to what would the LBMA do about the large number of Russian gold refineries on the LBMA Good Delivery Lists, refiners which are embedded with the Russian banks in the Russian gold market.”The question was answered today, when the LBMA – London’s gold market – suspended all Russian refineries from its accredited list, meaning their newly minted bars can no longer trade in one of the...

Just watched this video. The RFK book on Fauci goes into detail here. Israel may have committed vax-suicide. If not direct corporeal suicide, the conditions and context created by mass-vax may ultimately be the primary if not proximate cause of downfall and eventual military defeat. And they will mass migrate to the only country who will take them safely, and vote again and push again for the next idiocy, much as progressives and other authoritarians do. Turns out, Israel never really was free. At the most important moment, Israel showed authoritarian colors no better than Canada or anyone else. Never...
