The worst part of the pandemic is not the virus, but the misinformation coming from the WHO, CDC, FDA and Biden Regime. The regurgitation of haphazard guessing and conspiracy theories based on zero science has created the most dangerous kind of pandemic – an infodemic. First, we were told by Nancy Pelosi that it was perfectly safe to wander around in big crowds in Chinatown, San Francisco, and this was at the beginning of the infodemic. Cruise boats landed on our west coast, full of infected people who had visited China, and were purposely released, without quarantine or even testing,...

“Today the enemy counts on popular demonstrations to strike the Islamic system,” declared Iran’s Supreme Leader, 83-years-old, in power since 1989, the year of the Tiananmen Square student slaughter and the fall of the Berlin Wall. Unrest tends to cluster. “The enemy hopes to turn the people against the Islamic Republic by psychological means, through the internet, money, and the mobilization of mercenaries,” continued Khamenei, seeking to quell Iranian protests over rising food prices, corruption, incompetence. Not all revolutions are sparked by food price inflation, but most are. Mass migrations too.“If, God forbid, these weapons are used against Russian territory...

An FBI report on ‘Active Shooter Incidents’ in 2021 shows that California was the number one state for such incidents, with six incidents total. California is also number one for gun law strength, the Mike Bloomberg-affiliated Everytown for Gun Safety noted. According to the FBI, there were 61 “active shooter incidents” across the country in 2021 and 12 of the incidents met the definition of a “mass killing.” California led the nation with six “active shooter incidents.” California has universal background checks, an “assault weapons” ban, a “high capacity” magazine ban, a 10-day waiting period on gun purchases, a red...

Huge percentage of DEMOCRATS say movie strengthens belief in widespread 2020 election fraud The new film "2000 Mules" which probes evidence of massive cheating in the 2020 presidential election, is "hitting home" with voters who have seen the movie, according to a new poll. The survey by Rasmussen Reports finds 77% of likely U.S. voters who have viewed the documentary by Dinesh D'Souza say the film strengthened their conviction of systematic and widespread election fraud in the 2020 election, possibly leading to a "stolen election," as former President Donald Trump has maintained. Only 19% of those who have seen the...

A hand recount of the election results in a Democratic primary for a Georgia county has seen the “winner” of the race drop to third place after it emerged that the voting machines were “off by thousands of ballots.” The audit has raised fresh concerns about election integrity after it emerged that the vote count was severely inaccurate. On Thursday, DeKalb County School Board member Marshall Orson, who is running for the county commission, asked the local election board not to certify results as scheduled because of “numerous errors” with the local race, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution noted. Instead, Orson requested...

As punishment for blocking sale of American fighter jets to Turkey.. Some observers say Turkish Recep Erdogan is once again using migrants as a political weapon against Greece as at least 40,000 people so far this year have been been turned away at the border. The Greek Coast Guard has intercepted around 40,000 migrants attempting to enter the country from Turkey via the Aegean Sea. “In the first four months of 2022, about 40,000 migrants tried to enter the country illegally,” Civil Protection Minister Takis Theodorikakos revealed. Observers say that Erdogan is once again using migrants as a weapon, this...

The House committee investigating last year's Capitol attack hopes to explain what happened Jan. 6, 2021, but the challenge is whether the tick-tock sets off alarms or the viewing public simply hits the snooze button. Court records described the debunked legal strategy behind former President Donald Trump’s effort to reject votes in closely contested states. Closed-door testimony described Trump’s inaction for hours after the Capitol was breached. Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., said during an April program at Georgetown University the hearings would "blow the roof off the House." Raskin said, "I do believe that we are going to tell this...

Food processing plants and distribution centers are now burning to a crisp in rapid succession, a peculiar trend that has been growing since 2021. Just in the last weeks the U.S. has seen Taylor Farms, a packaged salad plant in Salinas, California, burn to a crisp; and the Azure Standard headquarters, “the nation’s premier independent distributor of organic and healthy food,” also was burned to smithereens. Approximately 200,000 chickens are dead after a massive fire tore through a Minnesota egg farm over the long Memorial Day weekend. They delivered approximately 3 million eggs a day to large retailers. (snip) •...

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson may face the most difficult challenge of his administration as his party appears to have had enough of his tenure and might look to start the process to remove him as party leader. The Conservative Party requires 54 letters of no confidence to trigger a secret vote over party leadership. The Times in the U.K. reported that one rebel minister believes the total has reached 67 letters, meaning the vote will occur, likely this week. The full count will occur Monday morning, but party backbenchers have supposedly already designated Wednesday as the day to hold...

An investigation of official statistics has found that the number of athletes who have died since the beginning of 2021 has risen exponentially compared to the yearly number of deaths of athletes officially recorded between 1966 and 2004. So much so that the monthly average number of deaths between January 2021 and April 2022 is 1,700% higher than the monthly average between 1966 and 2004, and the current trend for 2022 so far shows this could increase to 4,120% if the increased number of deaths continues, with the number of deaths in March 2022 alone 3 times higher than the...

As the war in Ukraine passed a landmark 100th day this week, front-line fighters and volunteers say they are grappling with a dark and discouraging reality. Despite pledges of tanks, artillery and — this week — U.S. rocket systems capable of hitting enemy Russian targets as far as 500 kilometres away, the Ukrainian front lines continue to be populated by at times dangerously ill-equipped fighters. They are lacking bullets and extra magazines for their rifles, one Canadian fighter said. They charge into battle in running shoes and mismatched uniforms, according to an American turning Ukrainians into combat medics. Fighters with...

Following a general trend of excitement among extreme leftists in media, The New York Times has recently posted an Op-Ed which argues in favor of the inflationary crisis facing the US and much of the world because it forces the public to go vegan and give up meat “for the greater good.” Just as late night propagandist Steven Colbert cheered for higher gas prices and suggested people buy a Tesla (a vehicle far outside the affordability of the majority of Americans) if they want to avoid paying $15 a gallon for gas, the NYT Op-Ed has a familiar stench of...

Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein said former President Donald Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election was something not even former President Richard Nixon would have imagined. In an op-ed in The Washington Post, the two reporters known for uncovering the Watergate scandal said they thought Nixon defined corruption until they saw Trump's presidency. In 1972, the Nixon administration coordinated a break-in at the Democratic National Committee's headquarters. The administration attempted to cover up its involvement until Nixon was forced to resign in 1974.

For all of its reputation as the “conservative” voice among the major news channels, Fox News has a funny way of showing it. Fox News Sunday host John Roberts asked his guest, House Minority Whip Steve Scalise (R-La.), if his Republican Party is “out of step” with America in opposing gun control. Scalise, a Louisiana Republican, opened the interview by suggesting that Democrats want to “take away guns” in response to recent mass shootings, such as the one in Uvalde, Texas, that caused the deaths of 19 fourth-graders and two teachers. “When you have a shooting,” Scalise told Roberts, “instead...

The Washington Post is in turmoil this weekend over twin newsroom spats involving several star reporters: Taylor Lorenz over false reporting in an article and Dave Weigel and Felicia Sonmez over a joke; a fourth Post reporter, Jose Del Real, self-immolated himself online after tangling with Sonmez over her response to the joke. Lorenz reported this week on social media influencers covering the Johnny Depp-Amber Heard defamation trial just concluded in Fairfax, Virginia. Lorenz was called out by two subjects for falsely reporting she reached out them for comment before publication. The Post then engaged in several efforts to clean...

Every year, throughout the month of June, the LGBT community celebrates its Gay Pride Month but we only have one day to celebrate Memorial Day to honor the men and women who died fighting for our country. On Thursday, Republican congressional candidate Vernon Jones, from Georgia, says straight, white males deserve to have their own Pride Month. He added that the group might just be the most discriminated group in the country. “Straight, white males deserve a Pride Month,” Jones tweeted. “The Left won’t acknowledge it, but that group might just be the most discriminated group in America today.”

South Side Ald. Roderick Sawyer, whose father was mayor in the 1980s, will run for City Hall’s top job, he said Thursday. Sawyer’s declaration marks an extraordinary break with Mayor Lori Lightfoot, who selected him to be part of her City Council leadership team as chairman of the health and human services committee. In an interview with the Tribune, Sawyer criticized Lightfoot’s combative leadership style and said her contempt for aldermen makes it difficult for the City Council to get things done. “I don’t think I would treat my colleagues as nemesis or an opposing party. We’re all partners in...

We know that Georgia’s corrupt Secretary of State, Brad Raffensperger, didn’t legitimately win the recent 2022 primary in the state. For one, no one liked him. But now we have proof of his impossible victory for Secretary of State. Governor Kemp’s race was just as bad. After the 2020 Election, we identified the “Drop and Roll”. Across numerous states, on Election night 2020, large ballot dumps of nearly all Biden-only impossible results were reported at nearly the same time, early on the morning of November 4th. After these dumps or drops, we then saw all reporting at similar ratios of...

Explanation: What's happening at the center of active galaxy 3C 75? The two bright sources at the center of this composite x-ray (blue)/ radio (pink) image are co-orbiting supermassive black holes powering the giant radio source 3C 75. Surrounded by multimillion degree x-ray emitting gas, and blasting out jets of relativistic particles the supermassive black holes are separated by 25,000 light-years. At the cores of two merging galaxies in the Abell 400 galaxy cluster they are some 300 million light-years away. Astronomers conclude that these two supermassive black holes are bound together by gravity in a binary system in part...
