    (UPI) -- The Clark County School District Police Department of Las Vegas stopped a driver with a fake license plate that authorities say had Cracker Jack stickers on it. Police referred to the female driver on Facebook as Fictitious Phyllis and uploaded photos of the license plate. The driver was also quoted. "My vehicle is registered to a trust. If you cite me for such, you will be entering into a contract with the trust," the driver said. "Upon our short and sweet investigation, Phyllis was issued some citations and apparently we entered ourselves into a contract with a trust,"...

As the 10-year Treasury yield tries to breech the 3% barrier.
  • Denmark to destroy excess soon-to-expire COVID-19 vaccines

    05/02/2022 7:33:14 AM PDT · by Oldeconomybuyer · 7 replies
    COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — Danish health officials said Monday that 1.1 million excess COVID-19 vaccines will be discarded in the coming weeks because their expiration date is near, and efforts to donate them to developing countries have failed. Statens Serum Institut, a government agency that maps the spread of COVID-19 in Denmark, said the epidemic in the Scandinavian country “is currently under control, and the vaccine coverage in the Danish population is high.” Around 81% of Denmark’s population of 5.8 million has received two doses of a COVID-19 vaccine, while nearly 62% have received a booster shot. The agency said...
  • D’Souza’s ‘2000 Mules’ Is an Absolute Must-See

    Maybe because I worked in film for years and have some idea how the sausage is made or maybe it’s an outgrowth of my personality, but I rarely cry in the movies. Nevertheless, midway through Dinesh D’Souza’s new documentary “2000 Mules”—made in close collaboration with Catherine Engelbrecht and Gregg Phillips of True the Vote—to my surprise, I found myself tearing up. Corny as it may sound, I was crying… for the United States of America. The movie documents with explicit evidence how our democratic republic is being destroyed—may already has been destroyed—through the utter sabotage of our electoral system through...

  • Not the 1970s or the 1920s: We're in Uncharted Territory

    Of Two Minds Blog ^ | April 29, 2022 | Charles Hugh Smith
    All of these similarities and differences are setting up a sea-change revaluation of capital, resources and labor that will be on the same scale as the extraordinary transitions of the 1920s and 1970s. The awakening of inflation after decades of slumber has triggered a flurry of comparisons to the 1970s accompanied by a chorus of projections for 1970s-type stagflation, defined as inflation plus economic stagnation-- limited or negative growth and high unemployment. A less popular comparison is with the 1920s: a massive expansion of debt, an equally massive speculative bubble in assets and extreme wealth-income inequality, all against a backdrop...

    SOUTHMOST, Texas—The Biden administration appears to have abandoned its effort to ensure all migrants apprehended by immigration authorities are inoculated against COVID-19, just a month after the White House said vaccines would be mandatory. According to several individuals familiar with the matter, some of whom requested anonymity to speak candidly, Border Patrol officials in the Rio Grande Valley are exempting migrants from such countries as Guatemala, Haiti, and Mexico from vaccine mandates. And migrants from Nicaragua, Cuba, and Venezuela must only receive one dose of the vaccine before they are released into the U.S. interior. DHS in March issued a...
  • Supreme Court says Boston was wrong to refuse Christian flag

    NBC News / Comcast ^ | May 2, 2022 | By Pete Williams
    The Supreme Court ruled unanimously on Monday that the city of Boston violated the Constitution when it refused to let a local organization fly a Christian flag in front of city hall. While the case had religious overtones, the decision was fundamentally about free speech rights. The court said the city created a public forum, open to call comers, when it allowed organizations to use a flagpole in front of City Hall for commemorative events. Denying the same treatment for the Christian flag was a violation of free expression, the court said. The ruling was a victory for a group...

    The Glen Beck Show | May 2nd, 2022 | Vanity
    I was listening to Glen Beck's opening this morning and he briefly discussed gender roles and brought up Rachel Levine. He referred to Levine as 'her' and it got me thinking, these conservative commentators near always do that. This isn't picking on Beck, they nearly all do it. I see this as the verbal equivalent of 'bending the knee.' I know people do it out of a sense of kindness, like giving stuffed animals to members of MS-13 at the border. I think it is unhelpful. This is delusion, why should we feed into the delusions of people who are...

    Tucker Carlson is openly laughing at the latest hit piece on him by the New York Times, which claims the popular Fox News host is stoking "white fear" and that his program is perhaps "the most racist program in the history of cable news." The highest-rated host in cable news tweeted a photo of himself in full laugh mode while holding a weekend edition of the Times featuring an in-depth, front-page series titled "American Nationalist: Part 1," "How Tucker Carlson Stoked White Fear to Conquer Cable." Regarding race, Carlson said he does not have an "exotic" view. "We believe Martin...

Gen. Andrei Simonov, but just missed hitting the chief of the general staff of the Russian military, Gen. Valery Gerasimov, who had just concluded a secret visit to the army and airborne command center. Earlier, unconfirmed reports suggested Gerasimov was wounded in the strike. Two U.S. officials tell The New York Times that Gerasimov had been in...

Video recorded by the Bayraktar drone high above Snake Island this morning shows the unmanned vehicle wreck the Raptor attack craft below. It is one of two Russian patrol vessels destroyed this morning, the Ukrainian navy said. Chief of General Staff Valeriy Zaluzhniy wrote on Facebook: 'Two Russian Raptor-class boats were destroyed at dawn today near Zmiinyi (Snake) Island.' -snip- Mr Zaluzhniy added: 'Bayraktars are working. Together to victory!' Moscow did not respond to the reports.

    EXCERPT: A physicist trained at Caltech and Cambridge, he sees immortality as a mathematical challenge. To solve it requires first asking why we age. “The canonical answer,” Fink explained, “is that aging is inevitable and a fundamental condition of life.” Every organism degrades over time and eventually breaks down. End of story. “But the story’s much weirder than we think,” Fink said. In a recent paper, he used math to demonstrate that “aging can be favored by natural selection.” That’s a shocking insight: It means that the first forms of life, which started billions of years ago, likely didn’t die....

    For years, pediatricians have followed flawed guidelines linking race to risks for urinary infections and newborn jaundice. In a new policy announced Monday, the American Academy of Pediatrics said it is putting all its guidance under the microscope to eliminate “race-based” medicine and resulting health disparities. A re-examination of AAP treatment recommendations that began before George Floyd’s 2020 death and intensified after it has doctors concerned that Black youngsters have been undertreated and overlooked, said Dr. Joseph Wright, lead author of the new policy and chief health equity officer at the University of Maryland’s medical system. The influential academy has...

    So now the mask has dropped and, for the first time, the American people can see the modern Left in all its hateful, unadorned, vituperative, spiteful glory. Case in point: the announcement last week that the Department of Homeland Security—one of the excrescences of the Bush administration, cobbled together in its panic over 9/11—has created the "Disinformation Governance Board" in order to combat what it has, via its hitherto little-known Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, already dubbed "mis-, dis-, and mal-information." Otherwise known as alternative points of view, but shut up, citizen. From its Orwellian name to the repellant leftist...

    CHICAGO -- At least 32 people have been shot, eight fatally, in weekend violence across Chicago, police said. A man was shot to death while trying to rob two people Saturday afternoon in Calumet Heights on the South Side, police said.

The pair entered their Volkswagen SUV and Johnson got into the backseat, struck one of them with a handgun and demanded their belongings, police...
