President Putin's spokesman admits Russia has suffered significant losses during the invasion of Ukraine, but denies accusations of war crimes when challenged over killing of civilians...

A father facing criminal prosecution for a tweet accusing a far-left education activist of “grooming” got a reprieve Thursday when prosecutors told the judge they would not seek to move forward. “After a review of the facts and evidence for the four claims brought by Mr. [Jorge] Torrico, the Commonwealth does not believe there is sufficient evidence to prosecute the above-mentioned charges,” Fairfax County, Virginia, assistant prosecutor Paul Vitale wrote in a court filing. The Daily Wire reported on Tuesday that Harry Jackson, a black dad with a child who attends a prestigious magnet school who opposed far-left activists’ quest...

“‘Whoever keeps and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven’” (Matthew 5:19). The New Testament presents a paradox concerning God’s law. On one hand, it is abolished; on the other, responsibilities to it remain. Regarding Jews and Gentiles, Paul writes that Christ “is our peace, who made both groups into one and broke down the barrier of the dividing wall, by abolishing in His flesh the enmity, which is the Law of commandments contained in ordinances, so that in Himself He might make the two into one new man, thus establishing peace” (Eph. 2:14–15). With...

President Joe Biden says he is “working out” how to mitigate global food shortages. But action speaks louder than words — and so does inaction. Global food supply chain chaos has increased due to Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. Countries across the globe are scrambling to increase food production. However, America is not one of them, because President Joe Biden would seemingly rather virtue signal about climate change than act on the near-term implications of a global famine.

Hundreds of military officers have had injuries including brain damage and burns after encounters with UFOs, a top brain expert and former CIA officer has revealed. Detroit Professor Christopher Green was commissioned around 2010 by a secret $22million defense program monitoring UFOs, to write a paper on injuries from close encounters with 'anomalous' craft. In an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com the forensic neuroimaging expert, who has worked with the CIA since the 1960s, said he dealt with 'hundreds of patients' including special forces officers and other military personnel hurt after interacting with unidentified craft, some of whom later died. Some...

Many times people say to us, “I have no one to talk to, no one to share my burden with. Nobody has time to hear my cry. I need someone I can pour my heart out to.” King David was surrounded by people. He was married with a large family and had many companions at his side, yet we hear the same cry even from David: “To whom shall I go?” It is in our very nature to want another human being to be present, listen to us and advise us. When Job became overwhelmed by his trials, he cried...

Photos of convicted pedophile Ghislaine Maxwell hosting an event called “Happy Family Disney Day” in 1985 have surfaced on the Internet today. It’s the ultimate PR nightmare. It’s going to be very hard for Disney to claim that it’s not a pro-pedophile organization when it literally took donations from the world’s most infamous (still) living pedophile and “groomer to the stars.” Creepy, isn’t it? Disney continues to trend today on social media sites like Twitter — and the stories and memes have taken on a life of their own. This is probably the biggest story in the world right now....

The Fermilab Collider Detector obtained a result that could transform the current theory of physics Scientists just outside Chicago have found that the mass of a sub-atomic particle is not what it should be. The measurement is the first conclusive experimental result that is at odds with one of the most important and successful theories of modern physics. The team has found that the particle, known as a W boson, is more massive than the theories predicted. The result has been described as "shocking" by Prof David Toback, who is the project co-spokesperson. The discovery could lead to the development...

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Former Trump administration appointee Connie Conway has advanced to a June runoff in a California special election to fill a U.S. House seat left vacant after Republican Rep. Devin Nunes resigned to lead former President Donald Trump’s media company. The race for the second runoff spot was too early to call, after election officials paused counting early Wednesday morning. Completing the vote count will take at least a week, as mail ballots can arrive as late as April 12. Officials said they would not release additional results until Thursday in Tulare County and Friday in Fresno...

LVIV, Ukraine (AP) — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Thursday night that work has begun to dig through the rubble in Borodianka, another city north-west of Kyiv that was occupied by the Russians. He also said “it is much scarier” there, with even more victims of the Russian troops.

Jack Maxey talks with me today while in hiding in Switzerland. The TV transcript: EMERALD: The dam has finally broken since the establishment has decided that Biden himself is too broken to be president much longer. Now at MSNBC, the Hill, Yahoo, all are reporting on the Biden's shady business deals after nearly two years of covering for the family. CBS reporting Wednesday, that US banks flagged more than 150 transactions involving either Hunter Biden, or his uncle James Biden, and their global business deals. Now only did the media attempt to suppress the news about the laptop, but so...

The shamelessness of liberal politicians and journalists is displayed by their unique outrage at the treatment of Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson, as if everyone forgot the smearing of Brett Kavanaugh with unsubstantiated sexual allegations, including teenage gang rape. The Washington Post editorial board was roundly roasted for claiming, "Republicans boast they have not pulled a Kavanaugh. In fact, they've treated Ketanji Brown Jackson worse." Leftist celebrity activists like George Takei ranted at Sen. Tom Cotton for suggesting Jackson would have defended the Nazis at Nuremberg (like she defended the terrorist suspects at Guantanamo, even after her days as...

WASHINGTON, Monday, April 7. The following is a summary of the intelligence received by the War Department up to 10 o'clock to-night: Yesterday, the enemy's works were carefully examined by Gen, MCCLELLAN, and were found to be very strong and the approaches difficult. The enemy was in force and the water batteries at Yorktown and Gloucester said to be much increased. There was sharp firing on the right, but no harm was done. Our forces were receiving supplies from Ship Point, repairing roads and getting up large trains. It seemed plain that mortars and siege-trains must be used before assaulting....

... But reactions of US officials perhaps also betray their frustration at failing to make Moscow comply. While it is true that Australia, Britain, Canada and the US have banned purchase of Russian oil, none of them are major buyers in any case. The reality is that China is the largest buyer of Russian oil, procuring almost half of Russia’s total. Clearly, the Biden presidency has no wherewithal to make Beijing change its mind as it further expands its imports. What is especially disheartening for the Biden presidency is that the next nine largest buyers of Russian oil are Germany,...

Emerald Robinson has a great interview with Jack Maxey from Switzerland. Maxey was the first person to receive a full hard drive copy of the Hunter Biden laptop from Rudy Guliani. After media, Senate and U.S. government officials refused to take action, Maxey went to Switzerland in order to complete a full forensic audit of the laptop content in a neutral jurisdiction. {Background} Previously, Maxey outlined [Daily Mail article and Video Here] his intent to share the full contents of the original files, and all of the retrieved deleted files, with the public so that people can see the scale...

Brighteon.TV host Dr. Lee Merritt told Bob “The Plumber” Sisson that humanity is at the fourth stage of the DNA war involving the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccines. “Speaking [of] the great DNA war against humanity … basically, we’re in the fourth stage of the war. I don’t think we can vote ourselves out of this. We’re going to have to prepare, protect ourselves and maybe fight our way out of this,” she said during the four-day Let’s Go Brandon Rally held in Brandon, Florida. The “Merritt Medical Hour” host told Sisson: “Since 2015, I feel like I’ve been witnessing a...

As you likely know, on April 22, 2021 the “United States” “set a goal” of reaching “100 percent carbon pollution-free electricity by 2035.” You know that because on that date (Earth Day!) President Biden issued a press release so announcing, although the document does not inform us how Biden was able to commit the “United States” to such an ambitious goal by the device of a mere press release, without any sort of affirmative action from the Congress, let alone any consultation with you. Previous posts here have noted that there is a rather gigantic obstacle to achieving the goal...

I was getting more depressed as I was going through the 70s/80s music.. then I came across this..

Source: monkeybusinessimagesJoe Biden’s approval ratings are radioactive waste. It’s starting to contaminate his party down-ticket. The GOP is heavily favored to retake the House. We have an inflation crisis. We have an emerging energy crisis. We have a war in Ukraine. We have a supply chain crisis, and the southern border is beyond catastrophic. The political winds are at hurricane force level right now and it’s all to the back of the Republican Party. They’re cruising to a red tsunami come November. Democrats by the dozens are retiring, so how does the GOP take advantage of all these political winds?...
