An 83-year-transsexual on lifetime parole for killing two women – one in 1963 and another reportedly shortly after he got out prison in 1984 – has been charged in connection with the killing of a 68-year-old woman whose body was found dismembered in a Brooklyn neighborhood, law enforcement sources tell DailyMail.com. Harvey Marcelin, a transwoman, was arrested late last week on a charge of concealing a body and could soon face upgraded charges after she was allegedly caught on surveillance cameras dumping a body near her Cypress Hills apartment. Sources identified the victim as Susan Leyden, formerly of Teaneck, New...

Mark Meadows, who as chief of staff to President Donald Trump promoted his lies of mass voter fraud, is facing increasing scrutiny about his own voter registration status. Public records show that he is registered to vote in two states, including North Carolina, where he listed a mobile home he did not own — and may never have visited — as his legal residence weeks before casting a ballot in the 2020 presidential election. Critics contend that Meadows' voter registration status suggest the former North Carolina congressman may have committed voter fraud himself. A spokesperson for Meadows did not respond...

A Democrat spending bill, negotiated with Republicans, uses American taxpayer money to fund “border security” measures in eight foreign countries while including no new funds to construct a border wall along the United States-Mexico border. The government funding package spends about $370 million in taxpayer money to fund “enhanced border security” in Jordan, Lebanon, Egypt, Tunisia, and Oman. At least $150 million of that funding is allocated for Jordan’s borders. Likewise, the package includes taxpayer money to fund border security in Libya, “border security activities” in Nepal, and “border security programs” in Pakistan. Though Republicans were able to preserve nearly...

A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years. These nations have progressed through this sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to liberty; From liberty...

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has been getting trolled across social media for bragging about telling Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky that women’s tennis icon and feminist activist Billie Jean King sends her regards. “When I spoke to President Zelensky, I said, Billie Jean King sends you her regards,” Pelosi told reporters on Wednesday.

Elizabeth Campbell directed a U.N. agency using textbooks that glorified terrorism The Biden administration has hired the former director of a United Nations agency accused of promoting anti-Semitism and terrorism in Palestinian schools to help oversee refugee issues and U.N. reform at the State Department. Elizabeth Campbell was hired as deputy assistant secretary of state at the Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration last month, according to reports. From 2017 to 2022, Campbell served as Washington, D.C., director of the U.N. Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), a U.N. agency that runs schools for...

In a letter to parishioners of Holy Family Parish in Springfield, Vermont, Bishop Christopher Coyne of Burlington announced that their pastor is being removed from his position over his continued refusal to be tested regularly for COVID-19 and to wear a mask while ministering, as the bishop had directed. The bishop also noted that he has invited Father Peter Williams to reside with him, so they "can pray, dialogue and worship together to hopefully change the bad opinion he has of me as his bishop." “After an extensive process and much prayer, it is with great sadness that I announce...

One week after Russia launched a large-scale military invasion of Ukraine, the United Nations estimates that more than one million people have fled the Eastern European country. As the war continues to escalate after the Feb. 24 attack, one segment of the Ukrainian population has found that the decision to flee isn’t that easy. Despite the dangers posed by constant shelling and destruction, the country’s dairy farmers have largely remained on their farms and the threat of a Russian attack isn’t enough to sway them to leave, according to Taras Vysotsky, deputy minister for development of economy, trade and agriculture...

The Bishop of Sheffield has accused evangelical clergy worried about the UK government’s upcoming ban on gay conversion therapy of causing ‘unnecessary anguish’ to LGBT people. Bishop Pete Wilcox wrote to the clergy in his South Yorkshire diocese following the publication of a letter signed by 2,500 Christian ministers and pastoral workers to Liz Truss, the government minister responsible for the consultation over planned legislation to ban conversion therapy. The Ministers’ Consultation Response, signed by over 700 Church of England ministers, expressed concerns that the legislation is so badly drafted that biblically orthodox ministers could go to jail for teaching...

An assistant principal of a Mississippi elementary school says that he was fired after choosing to read a book about butts to a group of second graders.

He also created a GoFundMe page, in which he shares that 'I...

Moscow, March 8, Interfax - Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and All Russia addressed the parishioners with a sermon on Forgiveness Sunday, where he not only called for forgiveness of each other's insults, but also linked the topic of forgiveness with Russia's military operation in Ukraine. "Today, on Forgiveness Sunday, on the one hand, as your pastor, I call on everyone to forgive sins and offenses, including where it is very difficult to do it, where people are at war with each other. But forgiveness without justice is surrender and weakness. Therefore, forgiveness must be accompanied by the indispensable preservation of...

With economic sanctions unfolding against Russia over its invasion of Ukraine, it’s useful to recall one of the climactic moments near the end of the Cold War — the dramatic weekend summit between President Ronald Reagan and Soviet Premier Mikhail Gorbachev. This October 1986 meeting, held in Reykjavík, is remembered for nearly producing a deal to eliminate strategic nuclear weapons, but it collapsed at the last moment when Reagan refused to bargain away his missile defense initiative. But another aspect of the affair reveals a key defect in the Biden administration’s handling of the current crisis.

In response, Governor DeSantis’ press secretary accused the president of arguing for ‘unfettered late term abortion.’WASHINGTON, D.C. (LifeSiteNews) — President Joe Biden has called Florida’s new 15-week abortion ban “dangerous.” On Friday, March 5, the President of the United States, a self-professed devout Catholic, tweeted his opposition to the Sunshine State’s new legislation protecting unborn babies. “Last night the Republican-controlled Florida legislature passed a dangerous bill that will severely restrict women’s access to reproductive health care,” Biden wrote. “My Administration will not stand for the continued erosion of women’s constitutional rights.” The president was upbraided on Twitter by Christina Pushaw,...

Russia’s invasion of the Ukraine will be remembered as one of the great crimes of the 21st century. The ensuing humanitarian crisis has already caused more than two million refugees to flee their homeland. With the imposition of sanctions, policymakers will have to weigh their political options as a rise in energy prices may trigger food shortages in the coming European fall, and lead to an even worse catastrophe in Africa and other developing countries. Under such circumstances, it’s easy to see the current war in Ukraine in Manichean terms. But once the conflict ends or devolves into a guerrilla...

In footage released by the right-wing guerilla news outlet Project Veritas, Rosenberg is seen speaking about what he calls "the left's overreaction" to the Capitol Hill melee. "It's like that January 6 stuff, but it's like I'm so over it at this point. I'm so over it," Rosenberg tells an undercover Project Veritas journalist. "The left's overreaction – the left's reaction to it in some places was so over the top that it gave the opening the right needed to start introducing the idea of, ‘Whoa, these people are out of control. Like, it’s not as big of a deal...
