As expected, the March Consumer Price Index was smoking hot with a 1.2% month-on-month increase and an 8.5% annual gain. But the mainstream found a silver lining in the numbers. Core inflation wasn’t quite as high as expected leading many to conclude that we’ve reached “peak inflation.” In his podcast, Peter Schiff said this is just wishful thinking. The March CPI reflected the first impacts of the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the spiking oil prices that followed. Although the CPI was slightly above the consensus expectation, many thought it would surprise to the upside. Peter said some people were...

Hillary Clinton pal and Democrat megadonor Ed Buck was sentenced to 30 years in prison on Thursday in connection with meth overdoses of two black men at his West Hollywood apartment. Buck was convicted and found guilty on all 9 felony counts, including two counts of distribution of controlled substances resulting in death last July. Ed Buck loved to inject young black gay escorts with methamphetamine — the mother of one of Ed Buck’s victims described it as a fetish.

The lifelong passions, promises and policies of a self-avowed, America-hating, multi-billionaire who describes himself a god, are unfolding before the eyes of America and the world. George Soros, is a Hungarian born political activist & investor who has long proclaimed the very existence of America (as it exists today), and more specifically, our United States Constitution and Bill of Rights, are the greatest obstacles to achieving his preferred one world system of global governance. And George Soros is a megalomaniacal radical who puts his money where his mouth is. According to Wikipedia, his personal net worth ismore than nine billion...

As Chief Justice of the Supreme Court presiding over the Senate impeachment of Andrew Johnson, Chase penned a letter to a friend on the night that Johnson was acquitted of "high crimes & misdemeanors." The author notes that Chase is upset that what should be a judicial process has become a character issue. Chase writes to his friend: What possible harm can come to the country from the continuance of Andrew Johnson nine months longer in the presidential chair, compared with that which must arise if impeachment becomes a mere mode of getting rid of an obnoxious president?

There was less of a baby bust than expected because of COVID-19 — but that doesn't reflect changing family planning dynamics in the United States. Instead, it's indicative of shrinking access to abortions and birth control across the country, especially for low-income women. That's according to a recent paper published by the National Bureau for Economic Research, which found that the 2020 COVID-19 recession was much different than earlier recessions, in that the number of babies born barely changed. The Brookings Institute predicted in 2020 that the pandemic would likely lead to a large, lasting baby bust, projecting 300,000 to...

More than a hundred million dollars worth of Mexican produce is stuck at the U.S.-Mexico border due to a trucker blockade on the Mexican side over Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s new border search policy, according to Bloomberg. The disruption could leave some US supermarkets without produce ahead of Easter weekend. Abbott’s controversial truck-inspection program ignited discontent with Mexican truckers who shut down the Reynosa International Bridge, one of the busiest trade crossings in the Rio Grande Valley and handles a large volume of fresh produce, four days ago. The Washington Examiner reports the bridge was forced to reopen Thursday after...

Watch live as Elon Musk speaks at a TED conference in Vancouver, Canada, on Thursday, April 14, 2022.

Along with the news that mega-billionaire Elon Musk had made an offer to buy Twitter in full came the predictable screams from leftists and others who can’t bear the thought of a free-speech champion owning their No. 1 means of censoring political opponents (even after tut-tutting for years that private companies can do whatever they want).Included in that group are the warmongers of the word, the chief of them being Washington Post opinion columnist and neocon Max Boot who wants you to please stop using that term. It seems like just yesterday that Boot was fist-pumping forever wars, supporting the...

If Elon Musk is indeed able to buy Twitter, the platform could look a lot different. In his first public, non-tweeted comments since the saga began, Musk addressed why he wants to buy the company, and changes he would want to bring about. “Twitter has become kind of the de-facto town square,” he said. “It's just really important that people have both the reality and the perception that they're able to speak freely within the bounds of the law.” In terms of specific changes, Musk said Twitter should open-source its algorithms and minimize the interventions it takes in policing content....

If there's one thing I'm NOT afraid of, it's being 'cancelled'. If being cancelled means me living in integrity as a human being who thinks for themselves, CANCEL ME TODAY! I repeat; I am not afraid. What I'm truly afraid of is existing in a world that forces me to submit to an ideology without question, otherwise I'm to be shamed (or pressured to shame myself) and cast out of the community. A world that tells me that because I inhabit a black body; I will forever be oppressed and at the mercy of some omnipresent monster called 'whiteness'. That...

Former President Donald Trump is reportedly planning to endorse Senate candidate JD Vance in the crowded and contentious Ohio primary race, NBC News reports. According to three individuals familiar with the matter, Trump has, in recent days, begun calling "donors and advisers" to get their opinion on a Vance endorsement, but "intense pressure" from other GOP campaigns has kept him at bay, NBC News writes. For example, Republican candidate Josh Mandel's campaign reportedly "hit the roof" upon hearing the news of Trump's expected decisions, one individual with knowledge of the discussions told NBC News.

A colossal simulation of the past two million years of Earth’s climate provides evidence that temperature and other planetary conditions influenced early human migration — and possibly contributed to the emergence of the modern-day human species around 300,000 years ago. The finding is one of many to come out of the largest model so far to investigate how changes in Earth’s movement have influenced climate and human evolution, published in Nature today. “This is another brick in the wall to support the role of climate in shaping human ancestry,” says Peter de Menocal, director of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution...

To get a sense of Trump’s power, look at the fate of Republican candidates he’s actively opposed. Anthony Gonzalez is retiring rather than face a challenger he couldn’t beat. Liz Cheney is in a world of trouble. Ditto Nancy Mace. Maybe Lisa Murkowski will be able to hold on because of the oddities of Alaska’s voting laws. (But maybe not.) Brian Kemp may be the exception who proves the rule. He has all the advantages of incumbency, and Trump still went all-in with his attempt to unseat him in a primary. So far, it hasn’t paid off. But the rule...

A Russian warship that was damaged by an explosion on Wednesday has sunk, Russia's defence ministry has said. Moskva, the flagship of Russia's Black Sea fleet, was being towed to port when "stormy seas" caused it to sink, according to a ministry message. The 510-crew vessel was a symbol of Russia's military power, and has led Russia's naval assault on Ukraine. Kyiv claims it struck the warship with its missiles, but Moscow has made no mention of an attack.

A week or so before the assembly, however, Thorne was approached by one – then multiple – Colorado citizens who knew him through his work with Randy Corporon and grassroots conservative groups on parental, health and electoral freedom issues. These citizens were disgusted with the party establishment picking winners and losers. They wanted a different choice than John Kellner, a name I’ve come to learn is synonymous with Country Club Republican. When Thorne finished speaking, George Brauchler jumped up to object to his status as a Republican. Brauchler nominated Kellner and, as his former boss, groomed him to succeed as...
