WASHINGTON, March 24 (Reuters) - Donald Trump on Thursday sued Hillary Clinton and several other Democrats, alleging they tried to rig the 2016 U.S. presidential election by tying his campaign to Russia. "Acting in concert, the Defendants maliciously conspired to weave a false narrative that their Republican opponent, Donald J. Trump, was colluding with a hostile foreign sovereignty," the former president alleged in a lawsuit filed in federal court in Florida. Trump, who beat Democratic nominee Clinton in the 2016 presidential election, alleges "racketeering" and a "conspiracy to commit injurious falsehood," among other claims.

Former President Trump is suing Hillary Clinton, the Democratic National Committee (DNC), White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan and several others over allegations that his 2016 campaign colluded with Russia. “The actions taken in furtherance of their scheme — falsifying evidence, deceiving law enforcement, and exploiting access to highly-sensitive data sources — are so outrageous, subversive and incendiary that even the events of Watergate pale in comparison,” a complaint filed Thursday said.

Reuters show a new low of 40% approval. Selzer has him at 34% approval AP has Biden at 43% approval. Only about a quarter are very confident that the president has the ability to handle a crisis, promote U.S. standing in the world or effectively manage the U.S. military, though most have at least some confidence. And then there is this: That intel op certainly was successful in installing the most dim-witted President we've had in recent history. Last week, the New York Times confirmed what we already knew all along, which is that Hunter Biden's laptop was not only...

Terry Williams likes to say that when he was a national sales manager for Jimbo's Jumbos, peanuts put diapers on his children. Years later, those peanuts helped pay for his education at Duke University Divinity School. Call it a coincidence, provenance, or divine intervention: Williams now oversees an entirely different kind of peanut hustle. He is the pastor at Englewood United Methodist Church in Rocky Mount, North Carolina. That's holy ground among snack cognoscenti for fried peanuts, a regional delicacy of Eastern North Carolina — a region known best for whole hog barbecue with vinegar sauce found in the counties...

BRUSSELS, March 24. /TASS/. NATO will not send forces to Ukraine, because it would lead to a full-scale conflict with Russia, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said at a press conference Thursday. "At the same time, we have a responsibility to ensure that the conflict [in Ukraine] does not become a full-fledged war between NATO and Russia," Stoltenberg said, answering a question about Poland’s proposal to send a peacekeeping mission to Ukraine. "We will not deploy troops on the ground in Ukraine, because the only way to do that is to be prepared to engaged in a full conflict with...

The researchers found that 17 out of the 22 volunteers (77.2 per cent) had microplastics in their blood – a finding described as 'extremely concerning'.

How the C-Suite Embraced Lockdowns and Economic WarBy David Stockman Economics 9 minute readA while back, corporate America was bending over backwards to appease the Virus Patrol with lockdowns, mandatory masking and threats to fire anyone who didn’t take the Jab.This was supposedly owing to the “science,” but it has long been evident that the latter was a limpid cover story. Big Business complied because the business culture of the corporate elites has become deeply confused and even corrupt.Their stocks being vastly overvalued owing to the Fed’s relentless and egregious monetary expansion, the C-suites have lost track of their #1...

Analysts at Swiss Re expect economic distress to remain elevated for average US citizens over the next year, with increases a real threat as the likelihood of stagflation and recession has substantially risen. In the US, Swiss Re notes that the misery index is now in the highest 20% of readings over almost 50 years, an indicator of mounting economic pain to citizens. The cause is high inflation, and analysts see lower-wage workers as particularly vulnerable due to their exposure to both relatively high unemployment and the greatest erosion of their purchasing power. The misery index is a sum of...

I>The war in Ukraine provides Belgrade with an opportunity to continue and boost its policy of replacing Russia with China as Serbia’s primary non-Western partner. As the Ukraine war rages on, Serbia is feeling the heat because of its ties with Russia. While in the U.N. General Assembly, Serbia voted in favor of the resolution condemning the Russian invasion of Ukraine and supporting Ukrainian territorial integrity, Belgrade avoided imposing economic sanctions against Russia. With its partnership with Russia under duress, Serbian ties with Beijing appear carefree in comparison. Indeed, the war in Ukraine provides Serbia with an opportunity to continue...

Rivian, a recently gone public electric vehicle company supported by the Biden administration and in which Leftist Billionaire George Soros recently invested a huge sum of money is trying to drop a massive car manufacturing plant in the middle of a retired community east of Atlanta. Citizens are angry at Governor Kemp and other politicians who are attempting to fast-track this project in total disregard of the rights of local citizens. To fully explain all that’s wrong with this Rivian auto plant "deal" — and the likely motives of Kemp and his cronies for supporting it — will require 2...

A new study released by Judicial Watch this week has uncovered potential widespread election fraud in Texas. According to the report, 33 counties across Texas have voter registration rates that exceed 100%, meaning there are more registered voters than eligible citizens. This is a clear sign of election fraud, and it must be addressed immediately. The integrity of our election process is at stake, and we cannot allow this kind of fraud to go unchecked.

Squires: America's most powerful women finally found men they can submit to The rapid spread of dangerous political ideology is creating a dystopian society that female fans of "The Handmaid’s Tale" have been warning about for years.This threat isn’t coming from fanatically religious patriarchs who strip women of their dignity, clothe them in long red dresses, and force them into natal servitude. The danger we face is coming from men who call themselves women. Their handmaids are female athletes, journalists, politicians, political pundits, entertainers, and women like Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson who wear power suits on television but refuse...
