On Friday, Joe Biden took part in an event at the White House to celebrate the confirmation of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court. In attendance at the event was Kamala Harris. Harris had been in close contact with her Communications Director Jamal Simmons, who announced on April 6 that he had come down with COVID. Harris said that she would be following “CDC guidance.” CDC guidance says that if you have had that close contact and you are up to date with all your vaccinations, you should wear a well-fitting mask for 10 days.

President Joe Biden hit a record-low approval rating of 42% in a new poll that suggests Americans’ fear of inflation is overwhelming their general optimism about the job market, which has shown continued growth in recent months.

My friends there are too many pundits as well as historians who go as far as to blame us for crossing Putin's red line-his security interests we ignored with NATO expansion despite his clear warnings. These ideas do not help point out who the Russians are-a paranoid nation who will act on it's paranoia. Millions killed(murdered) by their own government. The Holodomor. The gulag.

BELGRADE, Serbia (AP) — Russian ally Serbia took the delivery of a sophisticated Chinese anti-aircraft system in a veiled operation this weekend, amid Western concerns that an arms buildup in the Balkans at the time of the war in Ukraine could threaten the fragile peace in the region. Media and military experts said Sunday that six Chinese Air Force Y-20 transport planes landed at Belgrade’s civilian airport early Saturday, reportedly carrying HQ-22 surface-to-air missile systems for the Serbian military. The Chinese cargo planes with military markings were pictured at Belgrade’s Nikola Tesla airport. Serbia’s defense ministry did not immediately respond...

This is not some grand conspiracy, ‘out there‘ deep geopolitical possibility, or foreboding likelihood as an outcome of short-sighted western emotion. No, this is just a predictable outcome from western created events that pushed specific countries to a natural conclusion based on their best interests. You can debate the motives of the western leaders who structured the sanctions against Russia, and whether they knew the outcome would happen as a consequence of their effort, but the outcome was never really in doubt. Personally, I believe this outcome is what the west intended. The people inside the World Economic Forum are...

For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:6-8 (King James Version) Men are like regular people only bigger but not as big as pigs. The good news is there are very few real testosterone loving men left in America, they have all crawled into their addictions and now let the women run...

The occupiers are trying to improve their position in the Mykolaiv direction, but our troops continue to destroy the enemy, pushing the enemy out of their positions and destroying its resources. This was reported by Censor.NET with reference to the press center of the operational command "South". As it is noted, the anti-aircraft missile unit of the Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine shot down the Russian fighter-bomber SU-34 which tried to attack Mykolaiv. "The total losses of the enemy this night alone amounted to 70 orcs and 7 units of equipment. In the Kherson region, the...

The only people pushing to do something big before Election Day resided in the J. Edgar Hoover Building in Washington, D.C. On October 8, 2020, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer announced shocking news: federal authorities had arrested several men for conspiring to kidnap and possibly kill her before Election Day. After indulging in a moment of self-pity, Whitmer quickly pinned the blame on President Trump, a man with whom Whitmer had engaged in a very public feud throughout 2020 over pandemic-related lockdowns. Trump, Whitmer claimed, fueled the rage of alleged white supremacists and right-wing militias responsible for the dastardly abduction plot....

Ukraine is one of the world's top exporters of corn, sunflower oil, and wheat. Disruptions stemming from Russia's invasion of Ukraine have stoked fears the war-torn country could experience a 50% decline in crop output this year, according to Bloomberg.PixabayForecast data from ag expert UkrAgroConsult show Ukraine's corn output could be as low as 19 million tons, about half of last year's 41 million tons. UkrAgroConsult's pessimistic outlook follows huge production uncertainties as farmers experience shortages of diesel and fertilizer and bombed-out infrastructure. The outlooks of two other ag firms aren't as gloomy. Black Sea research firm SovEcon expects Ukraine's...

San Antonio must pay $300,000 to settle a pair of lawsuits brought by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton alleging the city violated the state’s controversial ban on so-called sanctuary cities in 2017 and prevented federal authorities from enforcing immigration law. Paxton had sued the city over a December 2017 incident in which San Antonio police found a dozen undocumented immigrants in a tractor-trailer and released them without turning them over to federal immigration authorities — in apparent violation of Senate Bill 4, a 2017 law that outlawed “sanctuary cities” by requiring local police to cooperate with those authorities. In one...

Science is in its worst state since the burning of Giordano Bruno (1600) and the trial and conviction of Galileo (1633). The wounds it has suffered are largely self-inflicted. Science advances by questioning the current state of knowledge and by attempting to fill the gaps identified by examination of the germane data pertinent to the discipline. Any attempt to stifle vigorous—even if heated—debate is an assault on science. Over the past three decades dissent from what some consider orthodox scientific theories has been ridiculed rather than refuted. Consider the interaction between Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr about the implications of...

A massive “super protest” is slated to greet billionaire eugenicist Bill Gates when he arrives at the upcoming TED Talks conference in Vancouver, Canada next week. According to the TED Talk 2022 website, Gates will give a presentation outlining his book “How to Prevent the Next Pandemic” during his appearance at the conference on April 10. The Microsoft co-founder and depopulation globalist will also discuss “what it’s been like to become the subject of conspiracy theories.” Gates, the event’s keynote speaker, will be joined by Elon Musk and Al Gore at the sold-out event which will be held at the...

The chair of the powerful U.S. Senate committee on energy and natural resources — and a key swing vote in the Senate — will tour an oilsands mine and thermal oilsands facility with Premier Jason Kenney and Energy Minister Sonya Savage. The visit came about after the three politicians spoke by phone last month and discussed energy security and the need for a continental strategy. “He mentioned he’d like to come up and see the oilsands, see how they do things up here, have a tour, understand the processes and understand the potential,” Savage said in an interview Friday....

A Georgia judge ordered that Fulton County must preserve its 2020 election records indefinitely until further notice, handing a victory to a GOP gubernatorial candidate. “The court finds it appropriate to include an additional layer of security by ordering that the records and information … are maintained by the Clerk of Court indefinitely until further order of this Court,” wrote Judge Robert McBurney, of the Superior Court of Fulton County, on Thursday. McBurney further wrote that the clerk of the Superior Court of Fulton County “is the current custodian of those records; she is statutorily obligated to maintain the records...

ATLANTA - Republican Gov. Brian Kemp of Georgia and his top GOP challenger, former Sen. David Perdue, will debate three times ahead of next month’s primary in their high-profile and combustible intra-party face off, their campaigns announced on Wednesday. The debates are an April 24th showdown hosted by WSB-TV, an April 28th debate hosted by WTOC/Gray TV, and a May 1 face off hosted by the Atlanta Press Club and Georgia Public Broadcasting. Perdue, with the backing of former President Donald Trump, is primary challenging Kemp, but trails the incumbent governor in two key campaign metrics — public opinion polling...

“‘For I say to you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven’” (Matthew 5:20). The righteousness practiced by the religious leaders further displeased God because it was partial, falling way short of His perfect standard. Again in Matthew 23, Jesus illustrates this phony righteousness: “You tithe mint and dill and cummin, and have neglected the weightier provisions of the law: justice and mercy and faithfulness; but these are the things you should have done without neglecting the others” (v. 23). The Jewish leaders were conscientious about making nonessential...

Former President Donald Trump called on Republicans to make it unlawful for employers to fire unvaccinated employees if the GOP regains a majority in Congress after the November midterms. “One of the first things that we will do with our new Republican majority is to end every last covid mandate. They’re still around, it’s hard to believe,” Trump told a crowd in North Carolina on Saturday evening. “We will pass a bill making it illegal for any employer to interfere in personal health decisions or to fire employees simply for not having the vaccine.”
