Massachusetts gas station owner fed up with what he considers attempts by oil companies to fleece customers with outrageously high prices at the pump has stopped selling gas as a protest. Reynold Gladu, who has run Ren’s Mobil Service in downtown Amherst for nearly 50 years, drained his tanks earlier this month and has no current plans to refill them. “I don’t want to be part of it anymore,” Gladu told The Daily Hampshire Gazette for a story published Tuesday. “This is the biggest ripoff that ever has happened to people in my lifetime.” Gasoline in Massachusetts is averaging more...

Too many communities are content to let black academic failure fester while spouting “equity” and “structural racism” bromides as cover. That has to end. A national media furor erupted last week after a Chicago-area news site reported 77 percent of black students in suburban Chicago’s Oak Park-River Forest High School District 200 “flunked” the SAT, and that district was going to implement race-based grading. The district itself, mainstream media, and even “fact-checkers” pushed back. Justifiably, to some extent. First, one does not quite “flunk” the SAT. Second, new and “equitable” District 200 grading policies are not finished, although the handwriting...

Two neighboring South Carolina congressional districts share more than a border, as their Republican primary elections double as proxy wars over former President Donald Trump’s hold on the party. Reps. Nancy Mace and Tom Rice, of South Carolina’s 1st and 7th Districts, respectively, are incumbents contending with opponents endorsed by Trump after criticizing the former president. The June 14 races present another test of Trump’s influence on Republican rank and file after inconclusive results from primaries conducted so far, including in Georgia and Pennsylvania. Rice, who supported impeaching Trump over the Capitol riot, will be judged by the 7th District...

You know things aren’t right when even people who attempt to cooperate are attacked, and when documents given to the cohttps://amgreatness.com/2022/06/08/why-i-refuse-to-testify-before-the-illegitimate-january-6-committee/mmittee are leaked, and in some instances doctored, by the committee. Some people have asked me why I refuse to testify before the illegitimate January 6 committee. They say, “Ooooh, you must have something to hide or else you would testify.” I say that type of thinking is not only naïve in this age of political warfare, but it is also dangerously un-American. Every institution of this nation has been weaponized by the Left for the purpose of arrogating power...

US President Joe Biden is trying to figure out how to placate Saudi Arabia’s de facto leader Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and get his country to produce more oil. Biden, under domestic criticism for high inflation, needs to somehow lower the price of oil. Saudi Arabia has more on hand than anyone. But getting Saudi help will be hard. Biden once called the kingdom a “pariah.” A US intelligence report effectively labeled Prince Mohammed a murderer for overseeing the 2018 killing of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi. ... It’s a conundrum at the collision of two competing foreign policy desires:...

Official Capitol Police timeline validates Trump administration's account, shows Democrats' fateful rejections of offers. "Seems absolutely illogical," one official wrote about security posture hours before riot began. icle Dig In The Pentagon first raised the possibility of sending National Guard troops to the U.S. Capitol four days before the Jan. 6 riots, setting in motion a series of rejections by Capitol Police and Democrats that left Congress vulnerable as threats of violence were rising, according to government memos that validate Trump administration officials' long-held claims. An official timeline of the Jan. 6 tragedy assembled by Capitol Police shows that a...

As former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley crisscrosses the country ahead of an anticipated 2024 presidential bid, she is also fixated on defending her home turf — from an incursion led by her onetime boss, former President Donald Trump. Haley is putting her political muscle behind South Carolina Rep. Nancy Mace, a freshman congresswoman who blamed Trump for the deadly Jan. 6 Capitol riot — and who is now facing a Trump-endorsed opponent, Katie Arrington, in next week’s Republican primary. Haley, a former South Carolina governor, has appeared in Mace’s TV ads, headlined a fundraiser that raised six figures, and is...

IPray For The Peace of JerusalemGenesis 17The Covenant of Circumcision 17 When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to him and said, “I am God Almighty[a]; walk before me faithfully and be blameless. 2 Then I will make my covenant between me and you and will greatly increase your numbers.” 3 Abram fell facedown, and God said to him, 4 “As for me, this is my covenant with you: You will be the father of many nations. 5 No longer will you be called Abram[b]; your name will be Abraham,[c] for I have made you a father of...

We must pay attention to Canada because America's LGBTQ+++ cohort is rapidly pushing us in the same direction. Because I don’t work for a major American corporation, I’m a little bit insulated from the totalitarian fervor behind Pride month. It assaults me at stores (although, thankfully, not at Publix), but my employer isn’t forcing me to do or say things to express Pride in a group of people about whom I have no proud feelings. The totalitarianism is real, though, and if you want to see where it’s leading, just look to our neighbors to the north. There, the state’s...

The Associated Press reported yesterday that GOP Senators Chuck Grassley (Iowa) and Josh Hawley (Missouri) are demanding that the Department of Homeland Security provide them with specifics on how it planned to coordinate its Disinformation Governance Board with social media companies to remove user content after a whistleblower provided them with key documents about the board. In an open letter to DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, Senators Grassley and Hawley wrote that DHS must "provide additional clarity regarding its policies and procedures for identifying (mis-, dis- or mal-information), as well as its efforts to ‘operationalize’ public-private partnerships and the steps it...

Summary and overview The Russian Ministry of Defense says that its forces now control 97% of the city of Severodonetsk. The situation on a smaller scale strongly resembles the final phase of the Mariupol siege, with hundreds of Ukrainian civilians and troops holed up in the Azot fertilizer plant. The Ukrainian tactic of “fighting for every inch” may be dictated by Kiev for political reasons; militarily it makes little to no sense. The New York Times reported on Wednesday that the US government has better information on Russian troops in Ukraine than on Ukrainian forces and that Kiev is keeping...

When the House committee investigating the 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol holds its first public hearing Thursday, Rep. Liz Cheney will stand out as the Republican who broke ranks with her party and with former President Donald Trump over his role in inciting the mob. But that national platform and crusade of hers is contributing to Cheney's undoing with GOP voters at home in Wyoming, according to polls and interviews with state Republicans who say she’s becoming too identified with Washington politics that damage the de facto leader of her own party. Cheney is trailing her leading GOP primary...

Great Reset. Green New Deal. Build Back Better. New World Order. Bilderberg. Davos. Council on Foreign Relations. World Health Organization. The list of secretive global societies and their mission directives for humanity are daunting. Many people who would prefer to be left alone to live their lives free from government interference have an understandable sense of impending doom. The COVID Crisis showed Westerners how quickly (and easily) their governments would impose unilateral mandates against their will, destroying any illusion that self-congratulating "democracies" have any more respect for individual rights or bodily autonomy than the authoritarian regimes the West routinely condemns....
