President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden head to Uvalde, Texas to meet with a grief-stricken community following the deadly elementary school shooting that left 19 kids and two adults dead. But not everyone in the predominantly conservative town is thrilled about his visit. According to Stella Chavez, an immigrations and demographics reporter for KERA News, told CNN’S Brian Stetler that there is “a lot of outrage” over Biden’s visit. “I think it depends on who you ask…I think, for the most part, the families who were affected want to focus on their loved ones who were killed. And...

Alex Halderman, was given physical access over several weeks to the Dominion ballot-marking devices, which print out a ballot after voters make their choice on a touch screen. Halderman's report is still under seal with the court. But according to Halderman and people who have seen the report, it claims to demonstrate how the software flaws could be...

Documentary released 2020 detailing Russiagate. Tubi is free and has this documentary. Pence the turncoat is the reason Flynn was fired thus allowing bad actors carte blanche. Pence crippled Trump in the beginning and in the end. Even though I watched this in 2020, watching it again now was more compelling. How quickly we forget considering the complexity of the evil done against this nation. All of the folks that worked tirelessly on Russiagate are in this documentary.

Much as the Western press has been promoting the idea that Ukraine is winning the war against Russia, it’s becoming clear that there will be no clear military conclusion to the conflict, and even the New York Times is beginning to admit that a diplomatic solution is in the offing, and the only real question is how much territory Ukraine will have to cede and how much of the sanctions currently imposed on Russia will have to be removed. Jimmy and his panel of The Dive’s Jackson Hinkle and American comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the prosecution of the war and...

Here is the irony behind what Ethan just said. People like him, who suggest violence against people who don't agree with him politically is one of the very reasons why all those people at the NRA meeting carry guns for protection. 4 minute video

Representative Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that a federal law raising the age to buy guns to 21 was a “no-brainer” following the mass shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, TX. Kinzinger said, “I think raising the purchase of a gun purchase to 21 is a no-brainer. If you look at the Parkland shooting, Buffalo, this shooting, these are people under the age of 21. We know that the human brain develops and matures a lot between the ages of 18 and 21. We raised without really so much of a blink, the age of...

With the world's first drone mother ship, the Chinese military is expected to gather more intelligence in the disputed South China Sea, despite a security analyst assessment finding the ship potentially vulnerable to enemy interference or a technological failure. Last week, China launched the world's first drone carrier, named Zhu Hai Yun, a vessel that can be controlled remotely to navigate autonomously in open water. It is expected to be delivered by the end of the year after completing sea trials. The state-run Science and Technology Daily said the ship could be an efficient tool in marine disaster prevention and...

Vladimir Putin on Saturday signed a law removing an upper age limit on the Russian military, meaning over-40s can now serve. The law was passed just over three months after Russia invaded Ukraine, amid heavy Russian losses said to be limiting its ability to fight. The invasion, which Putin and his inner circle expected to be swift and decisive, instead proved protracted and deadly for Russia. Western officials estimate that some 15,000 Russians have been killed. Ukraine on Saturday claimed to have killed 30,000, while Russia has not given recent figures of its own.

The Uvalde Police Department has come under scrutiny for allowing as many as 78 minutes to pass before entering the room where a shooter massacred 19 children and two adults at Robb Elementary School last Tuesday. Amid intense controversy about the actions, or lack of actions, by the local police, the department released a statement regarding the events of last Tuesday. In the statement, officials said, “Our entire department is thankful officers did not sustain any life threatening injuries.” The line comes as a shock to many, considering the failure of police to act in a timely manner, which resulted...

Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that Republicans were engaged in bipartisan negotiations for federal gun safety measures following Uvalde, TX shooting. Murphy said, “It’s inconceivable to me that we haven’t passed significant federal legislation trying to address the tragedy of gun violence in this nation, especially because since Sandy Hook, we’ve seen even worse slaughter, in Las Vegas, in Orlando. The pace of everyday gun violence has dramatically escalated over the past two years. States have passed tighter laws, referendums passed. There are present of local efforts that have been successful in tightening up our...

From the King of Kings of the East and West, the Great Khan. To Qutuz the Mamluk, who fled to escape our swords. You should think of what happened to other countries and submit to us. You have heard how we have conquered a vast empire and have purified the earth of the disorders that tainted it. We have conquered vast areas, massacring all the people. You cannot escape from the terror of our armies. Where can you flee? What road will you use to escape us? Our horses are swift, our arrows sharp, our swords like thunderbolts, our hearts...

The radical activist group Black Lives Matter railed against the “white supremacist” institution of “policing,” decrying its roots in “racism” and “slave patrolling,” while attacking politicians who support “our killers,” in a series of tweets Thursday following President Joe Biden’s signing of an executive order on policing reforms. In the wake of the president’s signing an order intended to improve accountability in policing, the official Black Lives Matter (BLM) Twitter account, which has over one million followers, expressed outrage over the fact that policing continues.

Today — May 28 — is National Hamburger Day, and it’s well justified. Most of us savor a burger off the grill, the kitchen skillet, or from one of the 80,000 burger restaurants in the U.S. with a market over $100 billion. It’s hard to imagine America without the hamburger, but change is in the wind. Yes, a changing climate is changing the burger. Let’s start with the main ingredient in the typical burger — beef. Unfortunately, like humans, the health of beef cattle are at increasing risks from higher temperatures and droughts. Next comes the bun, which is typically...

POKROVSK, Ukraine (AP) – Russian and Ukrainian troops engaged in close-quarter combat in an eastern Ukraine city Sunday as Moscow’s soldiers, supported by intense shelling, attempted to gain strategic footholds for conquering the region in the face of fierce Ukrainian resistance. Ukrainian regional officials reported Russian forces “storming” Sievierodonetsk after trying unsuccessfully to encircle the city. The fighting knocked out power and cellphone service, and a humanitarian relief centre could not operate because of the danger, the mayor said.

"People who want to slaughter children" will not be deterred by gun control legislation because they will not be "mindful of a law," radio host Mark Levin argued Thursday on “The Mark Levin Show.” Levin observed that individuals determined to commit these crimes will be able to find ways to obtain weapons even with stricter gun control laws. "We’re going to pass a law. So what? Do you think people who want to slaughter children are going to be mindful of a law? Does anybody know that murder is a capital crime -- you can face the death sentence in...
