Famed leftist MIT professor Noam Chomsky has credited former President Donald Trump for being one of the few prominent statesmen in the West actively pushing for peace in Ukraine as opposed to escalating war with Russia. Though Chomsky called the former president a dangerous figure for a host of reasons during a recent virtual interview, he did admit that Trump has proposed practical, peaceful solutions to ending the war in Ukraine. Chomsky said: Well, there is, fortunately, one statesman in the United States and Europe, a high political figure, who has made a very sensible statement about how you can...

Analysis of Bronze Age daggers has shown that they were used for processing animal carcasses and not as non-functional symbols of identity and status, as previously thought...As daggers are often found in weapon-rich male burials, or ‘warrior graves’, many researchers speculated that they were primarily ceremonial objects used in prehistoric funerals to mark out the identity and status of the deceased. Others suggested that they may have been used as weapons or tools for crafts.However, the lack of a targeted method of analysis for copper-alloy metals, like those available for ceramic, stone, and shell artefacts, left this problem unresolved.A revolutionary...

Find your local county committee. Ask if there is a vacancy in your precinct. The time commitment should be about one meeting per month ! -OFFICIALLY ENDORSED BY TRUMP

After May 7, 2022 there will exist a dynamic in the nation that has not since America woke up on the morning after the election in 2020. Simply put, we were right. By “we” I’m referring to everyone from the harshest critic of the “vote fraud” crowds but who in the back of their mind couldn’t have confidence in the oft repeated lie “most secure election in history,” to people just like you and me who had the audacity to ask about it and were told to shut up, sit down, or we’d be cancelled. The premiere of Dinesh D’Souza’s...

In a darkened room in Washington, faithful followers of the Biden administration gathered dutifully for this morning's Two Minutes Hate. Every day, zealous disciples of the Party come together to rile one another up in hatred and anger over a different target of the Party's wrath. Recent objects of the Two Minutes Hate include LibsofTikTok, Elon Musk, and The Babylon Bee. Today, it was Tucker Carlson. The crowd writhed and jeered, slowly building in energy and hate as images of Carlson appeared on screen with words flashing across such as "racist", "white supremacist", and "look at that dazzling smile, it's...

Joy Behar told her co-hosts Monday on ABC’s “The View” that she believed President Joe Biden being able to laugh at himself during the White House Correspondents’ Dinner proves he is “mentally stable,” unlike former President Donald Trump. Discussing comedian Trevor Noah’s performance, Behar said, “Can I say something about Trevor because I’m a comedian, and you are? I think that’s a very hard job. He was good for, like, almost an hour. His jokes were, like, so smoothly integrated into the bit. To make Washington laugh is hard. The only audience that’s worst than Washington are doctors. They’re the...

The chick was sleeping Monday on one of its parents' feet when "the parent took off, and it just accidentally knocked the chick out of the nest," research ecologist Peter Sharpe, who oversees the bald eagle restoration project on the Channel Islands in California, told CNN. Sharpe and his team are monitoring 21 bald eagle nests on the islands this season. The eaglet fell between 10 and 15 feet and landed in a steep gully, Sharpe said. The nest is monitored with a video camera that captured the fuzzy youngster's dramatic fall. The rescue team arrived Tuesday, and Sharpe and...

Lavrov got the "idea" to utter the sad sentence to make distorted and cynical use of historical Nazism, some time after the "talks" between Russia and the "moderate" Abu Mazen --infamous Holocaust distorted since the 1980s-- on the Temple Mount, as a payback for denouncing Bucha and other massacres _______________ CHRONOLOGY: "Russia's message to Israel: a telephone conversation between Putin and Abu Mazen," Elior Levy, Reuters. While Israel is facing riots in Jerusalem, preparing for a political crisis with Jordan and exchanging stings with the Kremlin, the Russian president spoke by telephone with the Palestinian Authority chairman. According to...

The level of the Dead Sea is currently dropping by more than a meter every year.

Deborah Birx, a leading member of the Trump administration’s White House coronavirus task force, said on Sunday the U.S. should be prepared for another potential COVID-19 surge after a recent uptick in infections in South Africa. “Each of these surges are about four to six months apart. That tells me that natural immunity wanes enough in the general population after four to six months that a significant surge is going to occur again. And this is what we have to be prepared for in this country,” she added. Birx specifically warned Americans should be “preparing right now for a potential...

A truck driver who law enforcement believes was driving under the influence dumped 2,000 gallons of "hot asphalt binder" in a California forest this week. Raoul Payette, Jr., 58, was driving on Highway 199 in Del Norte County Tuesday with a damaged tire, California Highway Patrol said.

He may have been killed in a simmering beef that started over duck sauce. A longtime co-worker of the Chinese food deliveryman fatally shot in Forest Hills on Saturday told The Post that the disgruntled customer wanted for questioning by cops in the slaying first hassled the joint over the amount of duck sauce it gave him. One night late last year, “The customer came in and ordered some food,” recalled Great Wall restaurant worker Soi Chung, 70. “He left with the food but then came back and said, ‘It’s not enough.’ He came to the counter and wanted more...

City health officials are “strongly” encouraging Minneapolis residents to put their face masks back on, regardless of vaccination status. The Minneapolis Health Department said in a Thursday news release that residents should “wear masks in indoor public settings and businesses,” citing an increase in COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations. The city said its seven-day new case rate has increased from 51 infections per 100,000 people in mid-March to 227 per 100,000.

I have been using plant fertilizer Eleanor's VF-11 for decades on plants, both indoors and outdoors. I like it because it is effective almost immediately and best of all, it does not burn the plants so easily, the way most fertilizers do. Since the Covid era began, this particular product has been near impossible to find in retail stores. I went to the website for Eleanor's VF-11 and ordered one gallon for about $25.00. My money was accepted on April 5th, 2022. I received a Receipt of that sale and told I would be contacted when it shipped. Since then,...

Nothing beats a good cup of tea. Whether it’s morning, noon or night, a cuppa makes everything better. As most British people understand, the making of a cup of tea is an art form.

President Biden’s advisers are reportedly weighing a midterm election strategy specifically focused on Donald Trump’s unlikely return to Twitter. The advisers, who have been criticized for having “no finalized, comprehensive strategy for the midterms,” may opt again to campaign against Donald Trump, who is not on the ballot. Democrats were crushed in November when they last deployed a campaign focus on the former president. Trump has publicly said he will not return to Twitter even if Elon Musk reinstates him to the platform. “I am not going on Twitter, I am going to stay on TRUTH. I hope Elon buys...

Today's Morning Joe didn't merely report on Donald Trump stumbling over the name "J.D. Vance," the candidate he's endorsed in the Ohio Republican Senate primary—it led the show with it! And in a moment of clueless hypocrisy, Joe Scarborough said: "You know if the current occupant at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue had done that, there would be headlines for, like, months." Ridiculous! If Biden had done that, one place you can be virtually certain there'd be no coverage, let alone show-leading headlines, would be . . . Morning Joe.
