The 12-year-old was sleeping under the stars with his buddies when the bear jolted everyone awake "Be Prepared" may be the motto for the Boy Scouts, but a 12-year-old from New York was anything but prepared for the encounter he had while on a recent camping trip -- one that saw his leg end up in the jaws of a black bear. The uninvited guest was peaking around a campsite late at night at Harriman State Park in Rockland and Orange counties, in search of some human food, when it stumbled on a group of Boy Scouts from Cooperstown. "It...

A San Antonio woman caught a special gift after her wedding in Port Aransas over the weekend. Eliot Waggoner Granville, 34, got married at the Chapel on the Dunes on Sunday. She and her husband, John Earnest Granville, enjoy fishing and vacationing near the beach. "It was our wedding night and we were sitting on the bed and my husband was like, 'well, what do you want to do?," Granville said. "I'm more of a fisher than he is so I said let's go fishing." Wearing a wedding dress and veil, Eliot Waggoner Granville of San Antonio caught a massive...

President Biden is a walking "gaffe machine." You can't put him behind a microphone because God only knows what he is going to say. We understand now why they hid him in his basement in 2020 with infrequent trips to the ice cream shop. It's tough to make a gaffe when you buy ice cream unless you order a pizza. This is from the current overseas trip: "When it comes to the gas prices, we're going through an INCREDIBLE transition". Yes, that gasoline pump that goes from $20 to $30 to $40 to $50 and $60.... it's just a transition...

All that is left of Joe Biden’s never very bright mind is his viciousness. Biden’s speech after the Buffalo mass shooting was as obscene as his speech in the wake of the school shooting in Uvalde, Texas was last night. He was barely there; frail and blank, reading the teleprompter with no emotion until he got to blaming guns. Then he yelled with thoroughly phony anger at all Americans who revere the Second Amendment. It never occurs to leftists like Biden that had one or two or three of the staff at the market in Buffalo or the school in...

I’m sorry but I just can’t stay away from the story of Archbishop Salvatore Cordelione announcing that, because she’s an aggressive advocate for unlimited abortion, Nancy Pelosi no longer qualifies for communion in his diocese. With the weekend having passed since the Friday announcement, noted religious scholars Nancy Pelosi and Whoopi Goldberg (that was sarcasm for those who thought I was serious) have weighed in and their takes are, well, extraordinary. To go back a little to set the stage, on Monday, San Francisco Examiner (one of two hometown newspapers for Pelosi) issued an aggressive editorial announcing that, as between...

Scientists Create Tomatoes Genetically Engineered To Boost Vitamin D. They used gene editing to enhance the production of vitamin D3 in tomatoes.

U.S. stocks fell Wednesday as traders awaited the Federal Reserve’s release of its policy meeting from earlier this month. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 125 points, or 0.4%. The S&P 500 fell for a second day and was down 0.3%. The Nasdaq Composite lost 4%, after posting a steep loss in the previous session.

The 18-year-old gunman who allegedly shot and killed 19 school children and two adults at a Texas elementary school cryptically messaged a stranger “I’m about to” just hours before he opened fire on the children. Salvador Ramos was identified as the suspect in the mass shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde on Tuesday, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said. He was killed by police after the shooting. He was using an account with the username “salv8dor_”, which was taken down shortly after that shooter was identified as Salvador Ramos. The Instagram account which is believed to be of the shooter...

<p>MEDFORD, Wis. (AP) — A Wisconsin couple say they killed a bear that attacked them inside their home after they spotted it eating from their bird feeder.</p><p>The Taylor County Sheriff’s office said the attack happened around 11 p.m. Friday at a home near Medford in north-central Wisconsin. The couple told authorities that the bear charged through a window after they yelled at it to go away.</p>

The New York Times reported late Tuesday that Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) took action “within hours” of the Robb Elementary School attack to adjust the Senate schedule and will “force” a gun control vote. According to the NYT, the vote will be focused on expanding background checks to cover sales at gun shows and “gun buyers on the internet.” This despite reports that indicate the alleged Robb Elementary School attacker purchased both his rifles from an FFL at a gun store; such a purchase already requires a background check.

A father and two sons are facing charges for an incident in which they allegedly assaulted a suspect attempting to burglarize their family business.

Once again, a large governmental body has exposed itself as morally bankrupt if not wholly bereft of legitimacy. On May 18, 2022, the European Parliament, one of the European Union's legislative bodies, rejected a proposal to discuss the elephant in the room: the rampant persecution of Christians around the world. The proposal came in response to the May 12 stoning and burning to death of Deborah Samuel Jacob (Yakuba), a Christian student in Nigeria murdered by Muslims for thanking Jesus for her performance in a test, and, therefore, precipitating an allegation that she had somehow "blasphemed" against Muhammad. Her murderers...

Legislation entered in California’s state legislature has gone where Biden’s “disinformation bureau” couldn’t. Bill AB-2098 gives power to the state’s medical board to investigate and punish doctors whose advice and treatment regarding COVID-19 varies from the “applicable standard of care.” Physicians in the medical establishment now have “disinformation” authority over others who dare to voice alternative options to their patients. Consequences include actions that can take away a medical license. Doctors on the West Coast should be dismayed (but am not surprised) by AB-2098. California’s attempt to reign in “misinformation” goes against everything a young physician should be taught in...

Day 8 of the #SussmannTrial is set to begin at the E. Barnett Perryman US District Courthouse in Washington, DC. shortly with the prosecution set to sum up its case with its 17th witness, #Durham paralegal Kori Arsenault. The prosecution Tuesday night filed two motions seeking to thwart the defense's anticipated request to enter all of Sussmann's testimony before the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence on Dec.18, 2017. The motion is likely to be the first matter discussed before Judge Christopher Cooper when the proceedings begin this morning. The prosecution, with Arsenault as its summary witness, rests its case...

A bill authored by Senator Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco) to require doctors and health care staff to complete cultural humility training to provide “trans-inclusive health care” just passed the California Senate, 28-6. It now heads to the Assembly for policy committee hearings.

To win any fight, we must first know our enemy. There are those who argue we are in a struggle with Marxism, though in reality, we battle the organizational and operational tenets of the Marxist tree, not the ideology itself. We know that this is not a Marxist movement because it ignores Marxism's core clientele: the workers. In fact, these people despise the Marxist's traditional constituents. Instead, they toil for a small minority of the "marginalized" in society whom middle Americans find to be fringe and anathema to their core values. Even then, their movement doesn't seek a revolution of...

Time for a New Declaration of Independence? Will we continue to endure this long train of abuses? It seems likely.Hillary Clinton signed off on delivering the Russia hoax to the FBI. Hooray. I have a hard time getting excited about something that matters so little. It is not merely a question of confirming something we already knew—that happens all the time, especially if you’re what, up until recently, was called a conspiracy theorist. But if you have even the slightest hope that demonstrating Clinton’s culpability would yield any tangible results other than getting to say “I told you so” to...

While a nation wept, a president raged.“When, in God’s name,” he seethed, “are we going to stand up to the gun lobby?”In a moment of sorrow, it was an attack. On me, and on millions like me, across the country, who own firearms or believe in the right to do so.It was a reminder that this is an election year, and politics never go away, and the agenda is always the agenda. And while a nation was dazed and broken, a senator dashed to the floor to make the speech he always makes and a president used the lines he...
