Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene, a Georgia Republican, harangued school shooting survivor David Hogg about his stance on guns on Twitter Sunday morning.

Voting to advance Supreme Court nominee Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson will be the main event when the Senate Judiciary Committee meets Monday. But the committee will also be sending to the Senate floor several other federal judge nominees, as Democrats push to keep the judiciary confirmation machinery cranking while Jackson dominated the spotlight. There are 108 current or expected lower court vacancies now pending, 84 of them openings for which a nominee has not yet been named. The general time crunch is being further complicated by the procedural tactics Republicans can employ to slow a nominee’s path to confirmation, in...

Finland appears to be getting closer to joining the NATO military alliance despite Russia's threat of military consequences if it becomes a member. The country's politicians and NATO itself have both pointed to the possibility of Finland joining soon, and a recent survey showed a majority of the country in support of membership in light of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Sanna Marin, Finland's prime minister, said on Saturday the decision on whether or not to join should happen "this spring," the Financial Times reported. NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said on March 31 that while the decision to join the...

J.D. Vance was on the warpath. “Using American power to do the dirty work of Europe is a pretty bad idea,” he told a crowd on Thursday, warning against the U.S. getting more involved in Ukraine. “We don’t have that many non-insane people in Washington. I need you to be some of them.”Vance wasn’t speaking at a campaign stop in Ohio, where he is running for the U.S. Senate, but at the Marriott Marquis hotel in downtown Washington. The audience consisted of over one hundred mostly younger conservatives, and he was sounding the alarm about not just foreign intervention, but...

VIDEOS AT LINK..................... A ‘bombshell’ Hunter Biden text that was first discussed on air prior to the 2020 election has been verified. And it has explosive implications regarding the current President of the United States, Joe Biden, and the Biden family. It regards a text conversation between Hunter Biden and his daughter Naomi, who is the president’s granddaughter. A copy of that text from December 26, 2018 has been provided to Becker News. Here it is below: “I love all of you,” the Hunter Biden text reads. “But I don’t receive any respect and thats fine I guess — works...

Spy agency wanted to know if "there's compromising information on that hard drive," Tony Shaffer says. A retired intelligence officer says a U.S. spy agency asked for his help in fall 2020 to try to acquire a copy of the Hunter Biden laptop contents ahead of the presidential election. Retired Army Lt. Col. Tony Shaffer's account to Just the News was confirmed by three other people who were approached by Shaffer or the agency or were involved in the approach. They said the agency's interest was to analyze the hard drive contents for any evidence or patterns of how foreign...

The Bible In Paintings 2 ENCOURAGEMENT FOR APPRECIATING AND APPLYING GOD'S MESSAGE J O S H U A CHAPTER 6 On the seventh day, they got up at daybreak and marched around the city seven times. The seventh time around, when the priests sounded the trumpet blast, Joshua commanded the people, “Shout! For the LORD has given you the city! The city and all that is in it are to be devoted to the LORD. Only Rahab the prostitute and all who are with her in her house shall be spared, because she hid the spies we sent. But...

Blair Hamilton, who is also a primary investigator of the Tavistock Transgender Athlete Study, studies "the impact of testosterone suppression or supplementation on the sports performance of transgender athletes" at Brighton University, according to the university's website. Blair Hamilton, a 6 foot 32-year-old biological male that now identifies as a female, has been selected to England University's women's football team to play goalkeeper. After impressive performances for Hastings United Football Club women's team in East Sussex, known as the 'Us,' Hamilton, who formerly played men's football, is expected to take one of the coveted positions on the national team, Daily...

Jackson’s confirmation is being hurried to a Monday committee vote ahead of the Easter recess. What’s the rush? Around the Ides of March 2020, the United States entered into a period we might call “corona communism.” From church closures to the widespread assault on property rights, the communist onslaught was allowed on these hallowed shores by simply claiming to benefit the public health. Over the past two years, a particularly troubling revelation is how children have been taken advantage of, harmed, and relegated even further to an inferior—almost subhuman—status in society. With this concern on my mind, I watched Supreme...

Transgendered people are foolish for thinking the left cares about them. Women fell for the same thing. The Democrats claimed they were all about “women’s rights” but tossed the babes under the bus when new victims, the transgenders, became the flavor of the day. Women now have no choice but to look at a “woman’s penis” in a spa or locker room. Don’t complain, ladies, lest you be punished. Did your daughter get booted off the team or lose a sports scholarship to a dude in pigtails? Suck it up, Sunshine. There is a new victim in town. Don’t worry...

Thank goodness, she is back! Sarah Palin, the driving force behind the Tea Party movement, has been away from the political limelight for too long. It was welcome news to learn that she entered the crowded race to replace Alaska Republican Congressman Don Young, who recently passed away after a 49-year congressional career. While Palin is a resident of Alaska, she is known nationwide. After being elected Governor of Alaska, she burst onto the national political scene in 2008 when the late U.S. Senator John McCain (R-AZ) selected her as his running mate. Palin added excitement and energy to a...

Ned Sharpless, the director of the National Cancer Institute, is stepping down at the end of April, he told STAT. Sharpless, 55, spent nearly five years leading the roughly $7 billion biomedical research agency, which is the largest of the 27 institutes that compose the National Institutes of Health. “I strongly support what this [administration] is doing to support cancer research, but it’s time for me to step aside,” he wrote in a text message. A former professor of medicine at Harvard and the University of North Carolina, Sharpless spent four years as director of UNC’s Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center....

Its official! I submitted my resignation from George Mason University effective June 1, 2022. I will miss teaching the students, past and present. But back to the US Treasury yield curve. It remains in reversion (meaning shorter-term Treasuries have higher yields than longer-term Treasuries, usually a sign of impending recession. The Fed has actually started quantitative tightening (QT) and the growth rate of Treasury note and bond purchases has slowed to a crawl. Meanwhile, Bankrate’s 30-year mortgage rate rose slightly to 4.91%. Meanwhile, President Joe “The Big Guy” Biden has ordered carmakers to increase their average fuel economy to about...

Climate experts commissioned by the U.N. will release what is claimed to be the definitive guide to “halting global warming” on Monday, in a report ordering how societies and economies must transform to ensure a “liveable” future. The U.N.’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is responsible for the publication designed to shape the global climate response in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic. AFP reports the IPCC published the first two instalments earlier this year in a trilogy of mammoth scientific assessments covering how greenhouse gas pollution is claimed to be heating the planet and what that means for...

An agenda-driving United Nations climate report is about to drop that will lay out pathways toward a lower-carbon, more resilient and less perilous future. It was supposed to surface hours ago, but negotiations between UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) scientists and the panel's government representatives blew way past their deadline. And that's revealing. Countries were mired in battles over how to wordsmith key conclusions, including the need to quickly shift away from fossil fuels, and the necessary policy, financial assistance and technological levers to pull to accomplish this. The heated discussion — the longest in three decades of...

This article is part of a series from Future Tense and New America’s Future of Land and Housing Program on managed retreat and other adaptations to climate change. Nearly 100 million Americans live on the coasts, and they are continuing to move there at high rates. In fact, the coastal population has grown by more than 15 percent since 2000—faster than the rest of the country—and the population of coastline counties in the Gulf of Mexico region increased by nearly one-quarter between 2000 and 2016. Coastal areas have a population density that is more than five times greater than the...

Twitter’s share price has risen in response Tesla CEO Elon Musk now owns 9.2 percent of Twitter according to a 13G filing released today, Bloomberg News reports. According to the filing, Musk purchased the stake on March 14th. Musk has long been one of Twitter’s highest profile users and recently polled his over 80 million followers about the platform’s adherence to free speech. Twitter’s share price was up over 25 percent in pre-market trading on the news. CNBC notes that Musk’s Twitter stocks were worth $2.89 billion based on Friday’s closing price. Musk’s shares are classified as a passive stake,...

For every time Joe Biden shuffles to a podium to blame the nation’s problems on the pandemic, Putin, and his predecessor, there should be a Will Smith-type who walks to the podium, slaps him for his egregious insults to America’s intelligence, then takes his seat and yells: “Keep the lies to the American people OUT! OF! YOUR! @#&%! MOUTH!” That’s tame compared to what Americans scream at their TVs every time Biden makes a speech. On April Fool’s Day, he took credit for a strong jobs report that a resilient market produced due, most likely, to eased COVID restrictions. “It...

Evidence of Russian War Crimes are now surfacing over the lands that the Ukrainians have won back. Mass graves have been found, people dead in the streets and basements of buildings. There have been reports of children being tortured and parents killed in front of their children. The stories that are now being told are of the worst kind imaginable, and the Russians will pay for what they have done.
