Georgia’s Republican Governor, Brian Kemp, pulled no punches over the weekend in shutting down Republican activists accusing him of participating in election fraud during and after the 2020 presidential election.The Atlanta Journal-Consitution highlighted on Tuesday Kemp’s tussling with right-wing activists during a Fulton County GOP meeting. “If you thought Gov. Brian Kemp had moved beyond the hecklers and naysayers at GOP grassroots meetings, think again,” noted the AJC.AJC reporter Greg Bluestein shared a video from the event, in which Kemp can be seen strongly pushing back against accusations from the audience, while also receiving loud applause from the group as...

The man who 'invented Putinism' has been detained in Russia and is under house arrest, say reports in Moscow. If confirmed, the move against Vladislav Surkov appears to show Vladimir Putin is turning on his inner circle, and also deep splits among his closest henchmen. Unconfirmed accounts say Putin's 'ideologist' is being held in a wide-ranging criminal probe that has also seen the arrest of 150 FSB agents. The case evidently involves the alleged embezzlement of $5 billion (£3.85billion) by the secret services to create an undercover and intelligence network in Ukraine. The shadowy Surkov, seen as crucial to Putin's...

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis appears to be cementing his stance as a prominent Republican leader ahead of 2024 as other red states mimic the Sunshine State's policies. DeSantis has been leading the charge on several GOP priorities, including the coronavirus pandemic, critical race theory and LGBTQ issues. "He's obviously the most high-profile Republican governor in the country," Brad Coker, the director at Mason-Dixon Polling and Strategy in Florida, told Newsweek. "No one else has his level of national coverage, and he's the center of attention in Florida." The Florida leader was one of the first in the nation to begin...

Special Presidential Envoy for Climate John Kerry on Wednesday pushed renewable offshore energy, claiming that Russian President Vladimir Putin cannot manipulate the wind and sun. “Now is the time to accelerate the transition to an independent and a clean energy future. President Putin cannot control the power of the wind or the sun,” Kerry said at the Our Oceans conference in the pacific island of Palau, according to Reuters.

President Biden announced his latest supposed silver bullet to deal with inflated gas prices that reached their all-time high last month — more ethanol than usually allowed in American gas — during a speech on Tuesday evening in Iowa. As usual, Biden's announcement was more about avoiding blame that explaining what his plan would do...because it won't do much. Biden's decision to use executive authority to have the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) waive normal rules to allow grain-based ethanol mixtures of up to 15 percent in American gas supplies is, according to the White House, more action aimed at lowering...

The start-up is working on a metaverse wristband to be used alongside a VR headset. The wristband aims to allow users to move around in the virtual world but feel sensations like pain and the weight of objects. It works by electrically stimulating a wearers arm muscles. A user is said to be able to feel sensations like their skin being pinched or a weight in their hands. Emi Tamaki, the CEO of H2L Technologies...told the FT: "Feeling pain enables us to turn the metaverse world into a real [world], with increased feelings of presence and immersion." Tamaki is a...

PORTLAND, Ore. — Frustrations are high as Portland moves closer to building six Safe Rest Villages. Neighbors near two of the sites reached out to KATU to talk about what they call "failed civic engagement." In Lents, homeowner Joe Papasadero is outraged. "I've had my gas stolen just this last month -- four times," said Papasadero. Papasadero does not care if he comes off as indelicate when he talks about Portland and its problems. "It used to be called City of Roses. I call it the city dump," said Papasadero. He says you can call him a NIMBY because that's...

National awareness of the grooming problem in public school classrooms is rising, thanks to the campaign opposing Florida's law prohibiting sexualizing the youngest students in grades K–3. The hysteria of the law's opponents has served notice on the public that an active movement exists in schools and the media to indoctrinate the young in the notion that one's sex is a matter of preference, not biology, and even to facilitate homosexuality and transgenderism in pre-pubescent children. Helping public awareness rise is the number of online videos, especially on Tik Tok, where public school teachers proclaim their goals. Two examples collected...

The reaction by some to Donald Trump’s endorsement of Dr. Mehmet Oz in the U.S. Senate race in Pennsylvania seems a bit over the top. I mean, I get it on some levels: Oz isn’t great on the issues, isn’t a conservative rockstar (as if Pennsylvania produces any), and is an unknown commodity in electoral politics (see Trump, Donald J., circa 2015). But everyone needs to take a deep breath and understand that Oz is 10 times better than former hedgefund CEO Dave McCormick. And in Trump’s mind, maybe 50 times better.

Why are lots of men willing to admit that they were wrong in 2020, while college-educated women are doubling down? NBC News recently compared several polls to find huge shifts from Democrats to Republicans in 2022 midterm voter preferences. The big exception to these shifts across many demographics was college-educated women, who in NBC’s aggregation showed even stronger support for Democrats now than ahead of the last midterm election. Here’s the key graphic, which zoomed around social media Sunday, and below that the NBC segment.

Translation: Regarding this incident, it is written that there was an annoying friendly fire. APU fighters took a selfie at an abandoned Russian IFV, which slipped off the road (the edge is visible) when its own Ukrainian tank mistook them for the enemy and fired a shot, but this is not accurate. Just because there are dead and they are from the Ukrainian side. Videos with the dead and from the IFV are online.

The White House has only days to decide if it will renew the mask mandate on public transportation systems as COVID-19 cases once again show signs of rising. The requirement to wear a mask on airplanes, in airports and on buses and trains has been in place for 14 months under the Biden administration, including several extensions, but is finally set to expire Monday.

You’ve almost certainly heard of Klaus Schwab by now. You know, the creepy guy who looks and sounds like a Bond-movie villain which would be amusing if it weren’t so deadly true. The man seems to have a very “anti-human” agenda, if I can put it that way. He celebrates COVID-19 and his beloved “Great Reset” and he oozes creepiness. (snip) But now I want to talk to you about his #1 advisor: another creep by the name of Yuval Harari. Actually he seems to go by the name Yuval Noah Harari, but for obvious reasons I don’t like that...

Cigarette smoking is overwhelmingly the main cause of lung cancer, yet only a minority of smokers develop the disease. A study led by scientists at Albert Einstein College of Medicine and published online on April 11, 2022, in Nature Genetics suggests that some smokers may have robust mechanisms that protect them from lung cancer by limiting mutations. The findings could help identify those smokers who face an increased risk for the disease and therefore warrant especially close monitoring. “This may prove to be an important step toward the prevention and early detection of lung cancer risk and away from the...

DUBLIN, Calif. - Four people were charged by the Alameda County District Attorney's Office for multiple robberies in the Bay Area, including one of a Canadian film crew late last month, prosecutors announced Tuesday. Deleon Miller, 22, Torrion King, 21, and Teddy Williams, 18, were each charged with four counts of felony second-degree robbery for alleged offenses in San Francisco and Alameda County on March 25 and 28. The three allegedly robbed the film crew at about 5:15 p.m. on March 25 on Twin Peaks in San Francisco, prosecutors said.

The bus pulled up at approximately 8 a.m. local time, blocks away from the U.S. Capitol building. Fox News has learned that they came from the Del Rio sector in Texas, after coming to the U.S. from Colombia, Cuba, Nicaragua, and Venezuela. [cut] According to TDEM, Abbott’s plan is already working. The agency told Fox News on Monday that many of the communities that originally reached out for support – from the Rio Grande Valley to Terrell County – say the federal government stopped dropping immigrants in their towns since Abbott's announcement on April 6.
