You might remember Harry Reid. He was a Senator from Nevada, serving from 1987 to 2017. He passed last December and currently resides in hell. Reid was a truly evil person, a liar utterly absent a soul or a conscience. In an effort to cripple the Presidential campaign of Mitt Romney in 2012, Harry made the assertion that Romney hadn't paid his taxes in 10 years in a HuffPo interview. "He didn't pay taxes for 10 years!" Reid said. "Now, do I know that that's true? Well, I'm not certain, but obviously he can't release those tax returns. How would...

It was like a blubbery tugboat. Tourists in Mexico had a whale of a time after a gray whale lifted their boat and took them along for a supersized joy ride. Footage of the accidental “whale riders” is currently blowing up online. “I’ve been there many times and this never happens!” Lory Barra told Viral Hog of the magical encounter, which happened March 8 off the coast of Guerrero Negro, Baja California Sur, Mexico. The “extremely rare occurrence” went down while the Manhattan Beach, California native was reportedly playing with the “gray whale in her breeding/mating lagoon in Guerrero Negro...

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) – Authorities late Thursday night and early Friday morning cleared out a large homeless encampment from downtown Los Angeles’ Little Tokyo. The dozens of homeless people living in Little Tokyo’s Toriumi Plaza had been given a 10 p.m. Thursday deadline to move out. A group of homeless activists picketed outside the plaza Thursday morning. A fence was placed around the plaza and city cleanup crews overnight removed remaining items, trash and debris. Several of the homeless, however, brought their tents to just beyond the fences and set them up on the sidewalks outside.

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem issued a statement Tuesday condemning the National Park Service's decision to deny a permit for fireworks at Mount Rushmore for the second time since President Joe Biden took office. "Mount Rushmore is the best place in America to celebrate our nation's birthday — I just wish President Biden could see that," Noem said. "Last year, the President hypocritically held a fireworks celebration in Washington, D.C., while denying us our own event. This year, it looks like they are planning to do the same." Rushmore's Independence Day celebrations typically last 26 days, occurring from June 15-July...

For those who care about our country’s future but don’t want to be buried in the minutia of the Russia collusion hoax scandal, here is your big-picture primer. As Special Counsel John Durham continues to expose more details of the “SpyGate” or “Russia collusion” scandal, it can be difficult for any apolitical, non-news-junkie member of the public to grasp the ongoing developments. After all, for more than five years, the corrupt legacy media has refused to report on scandal or done so with a slanted portrayal of the facts. So most Americans remain unaware of the Democrats’ years-long duplicity that...

Ukraine is "humiliating" Russia on the battlefield and "wiping the floor with them in terms of world opinion", says a UK military expert. Prof Michael Clarke, former director of the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI) think tank, says: "The Russians are making almost every tactical mistake it is possible to make." Speaking on BBC Radio 4's Today programme, he explains: "They [Russian troops] look like forces that were completely unprepared, that hadn’t thought through what a major campaign might look like. "The Ukrainians are stalling the Russian advance in all areas and even operating now quite effective counter attacks. The...

A SUNY-Cortland professor was reported to his university’s bias response team for saying America is not as bad as it was in the past when it comes to race and gender relations. The complaint was among about three dozen filed with the university’s bias response team since January 2020, according to documents recently obtained by The College Fix through a public records act request. Other complaints included a professor who used the terms “redsk*n” and “Squ*w” when discussing Peter Pan, a student who yelled “shut up, I’m trying to sleep” at Black Lives Matter protesters, and a dorm resident who...

More than a dozen House Democrats are urging the Department of Justice (DOJ) to address "insider threats to election systems," which they say are posed by candidates who are running to fill local election positions motivated by former President Trump's false claims about the 2020 presidential election. In a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland dated Wednesday, the Democratic lawmakers said they are worried that those candidates may attempt to influence the outcomes of future races if they are installed as election officials. "Unfortunately, many of the candidates seeking to fill newly vacated state and local election posts support former...

At $200 per barrel, Andurand said demand could fall to balance the market. Directly asked if oil could reach that level this year, he replied that it could. “The fact that maybe to have the same impact on the economy at the high price of 2008, when it was $150, might be actually closer to $250 today. So that’s the way I think of it,” he said.

VIDEOTime magazine said it best when they revealed last year that the media, both traditional and social, worked to "fortify" the election. And a prime example of fortifying the election was Hunter Biden Laptop Denialism. Everyone knew from the get-go that the laptop and the damning emails it contained were authentic but the media, as you can see here, went into deep denial mode. Even many of the denialists later grudgingly admitted the validity of the story once the election was "safely" over. The last nail in the coffin of Hunter Biden Laptop Denialism came with the very very belated...

Within hours prior to the Xi-Biden call which is now in progress, China sent an aircraft carrier through the Taiwan Strait on Friday in what’s being seen as a message to the West. “The timing of the Shandong’s movements, being so close to the US-China President’s call, was described as provocative by the source,” Reuters described. “Around 10:30 a.m. the CV-17 appeared around 30 nautical miles to the southwest of Kinmen, and was photographed by a passenger on a civilian flight,” the source told Reuters of the pass-through which was also confirmed by Taiwan’s Ministry of Defense. Via The National...

Paris (AFP) – With the planet facing the "potentially serious consequences" of global warming, UN experts writing 32 years ago urged an indifferent world to take immediate action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Planet-warming carbon pollution has increased ever since. In 1990 the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change produced the first trio of reports in a cycle of climate change assessments -- one on the physical science of warming, one on the impacts and one on solutions -- that has repeated roughly every six years. While the authors of the most recent IPCC report on impacts, released in February this...

US existing home sales fell -7.24% from January as mortgage rates soar. On a YoY basis, existing home sales declined by -2.43%. The median price of existing home sales “slowed” to 15% YoY in February as inventory picked-up slightly. And yes, Fed Stimulypto is still around and hasn’t helped increase inventory for sale. As I said earlier, we are seeing the Treasury yield curve plunging towards recession.

After 8 years in the Bay Area, web designer Mike Rothermel, who’s in his mid-40s, his wife and 9 year-old daughter realized their time in the tech capital had expired. Fed up with the Bay Area’s high prices and harder lifestyle, Rothermel craved the ease of life and lower costs in Boulder, where he’d grown up. “Everything costs less and people are less competitive. You don’t have to make more than your neighbor or drive a better car. We don’t feel that pressure here,” says Rothermel of Boulder.

Actor Pedro Pascal has weighed in on the great San Antonio or Austin taco debate. Pascal was in Austin for the SXSW premiere of the Nicolas Cage film "The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent" and while on the red carpet he was asked which city had the better tacos. "It's San Antonio people. It's San Antonio. If we're talking about tacos. Chile con queso maybe you get that in Austin, but you get a taco in San Antonio por favor," Pascal said. "No, yes, as far as I remember yeah it's San Antonio." Pascal expressed his love for Austin, but...
