    Democratic senators are pushing back on whispers within their party that President Biden, 79, is too old to run for a second term. Senators say they will strongly support Biden if he opts to run for reelection, despite growing concerns over his low public approval rating and his ability to win a grueling presidential election when he will be 81 years old.

    When there are enough people around you, it's easy to remain in a crowd largely unnoticed. It's easier to hide your flaws, easier to hide your lies, easier to scheme, easier to grift. That changes once you are alone, and the spotlight is directly on you. Such it is with Joe Biden. Save for burgeoning dementia, Joe Biden really hasn't changed. He always has been a liar. He always has been schemer. He always has been a grifter. He has a history of calling himself "the poorest man in Congress" but lives a life of wealth. He owns two...

    MSNBC “Morning Joe” host Joe Scarborough on Thursday touted the House Select Committee’s primetime hearings over the January 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol. Scarborough agreed with The Atlantic’s Caitlin Flanigan, who said she was as “riveted” by the hearings as her parents were with the Watergate hearings. The MSNBC host added he didn’t think the American people would care about the hearings but noted that the “numbers have been staggering.”
  • Border Patrol Agents 'Furious' Biden Admin to Punish Them Over Fake, Migrant-Whipping Incident

    You’ll recall the incident that occurred last September at the US-Mexico border when photographers caught agents on horseback using their long reins to control their horses as they tried to slow the onslaught of migrants illegally crossing the Rio Grande river into our country. The Biden administration immediately drew conclusions, saying the agents were “whipping” the migrants as if they were slaves. “To see people treated like they did, horses barely running over, people being strapped – it’s outrageous,” Joe Biden told reporters after the photographs surfaced. “I promise you, those people will pay.” The controversy was quickly debunked, and...

    We are without any intelligence from Gen. MCCLELLAN's Army of a later date than Saturday, telegraphic communication with Fortress Monroe having been interrupted by a storm. We repeat, however, the following intelligence printed in our Sunday Edition, which, indicates that important movements have recently been made by the rebels: WASHINGTON, Saturday, June 14. A dispatch from Gen. MCCLELLAN's army, dated to-day, says: "The movements of the enemy to-day have been extensive, and as yet are involved in mystery. Large bodies of men have been seen moving down from the neighborhood of Mechanicsville Bridge and Richmond towards the late battle-field. Our...

    Every state has placed an order with the federal government to ensure coronavirus vaccines for young children are delivered as soon as regulators authorize their use — except for one. Florida missed a Tuesday deadline to request delivery of COVID-19 pediatric vaccines for children under 5, guaranteeing a delay in access for parents across the state, according to two U.S. government sources.

    Ankara and Moscow have put forward potential solutions to reopen Ukraine’s Black Sea ports, with Russia offering safe passage to ships while Turkey said it could help guide vessels around Ukrainian naval mines deployed to stall the Russian advance. Russia’s UN Ambassador Vassily Nebenzia told reporters on Wednesday that the Kremlin is open to creating a “safe passage” for grain shipments, but said Moscow could not guarantee a route that would be free of mines.Maxar Technologies image showing Russia-flagged Matros Pozynich docked in Sevastopol in May. “We are not responsible for establishing safe corridors.

    Capitol Police received alerts from both U.S. Homeland Security and District of Columbia authorities about potential violence at the Capitol more than two weeks before the Jan. 6 riots, a pre-Christmas warning that flagged online chatter about waging a “bloody war,” concealing guns, and burning down the Supreme Court, according to internal memos obtained by Just the News that reveal much earlier and persistent red flags about the tragedy.

    Independent Sentinel ^ | 5/29/2022 | M Dowling
    A damning report out of Florida’s Inspector General’s office, found that fired IT tech staffer Rebekah Jones was not a whistleblower, but rather a liar and a fraud. Jones claims she was ordered to manipulate Florida’s COV dashboard in May 2020 to make Gov. DeSantis look better as he moved to re-open the state. The IG found her allegations “unsubstantiated” and “unfounded.” The IG found there was little or no evidence to back up her claims. The report indicated that she did not understand public health policy or the significance of epidemiological data. Additionally she did not even have high-level...

    Malmo imam calls Jews "the offspring of monkeys and pigs" in sermon containing anti-Jewish conspiracy theories An imam in Malmo, Sweden who during a sermon call Jews "the offspring of monkeys and pigs" has been charged with incitement to hatred by Swedish authorities. According to Swedish news outlet STV, Imam Basem Mahmoud said during an October 2020 sermon at Malmo's al-Sahaba mosque: "Everyone hears and sees exactly what the West takes for granted, what their masters the Jews, the descendants of monkeys and pigs, the enemies of Islam and Muslims, dictate to them."

    The federal government started taking orders from states two weeks ago for 10 million doses. WASHINGTON — Florida parents with kids under 5 years old may find themselves waiting longer than the rest of the country to get their youngest children vaccinated against Covid since state officials have decided not to order any doses for that age group. Florida is the only state that hasn't submitted a request with the federal government for doses of the Covid vaccine specifically tailored for children ages six months to five years in anticipation of U.S. regulators giving clearance for that age bracket as...

    No doubt about it, the economic news in recent weeks has been relentlessly negative. Indicator after indicator shows activity plunging sharply in key parts of the economy. Now, a widely followed indicator signals economic growth is likely to be zero in the current quarter, after the first quarter’s “unexpected” 1.4% decline. Buckle up, looks like we’re entering a recession, folks. Let’s review just some of the economic carnage of recent days: The Fed raised interest rates by 3/4 of a percentage point on Wednesday, the largest hike since 1994, as the central bank desperately tries to rein in our near-9%...

    Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel said Wednesday that “drag queens make everything better”. And there should be “a drag queen for every school” during an event in Lansing, Fox News reports. Nothing against drag queens for adults, but someone needs to explain how exhibitionists dressing in women’s clothing and sexualizing their performances would make things better for impressionable children. SHE WAS JOKING? Nessel, who was the first openly gay person elected to statewide office in Michigan, made the comments during a civil rights event. “Drag queens make everything better. Drag queens are fun,” Nessel said, according to Craig Mauger who...

    VIDEOIt has to be the world's worst wig. It is worn by 72 year old British MP Michael Fabricant. The wig is so horrible that it just sucks in all your attention to the extent that you can't even hear anything Fabricant is saying. Try it. In these video clips all your attention is sucked in by his wig and whatever Fabricant is saying is completely ignored. The DayGlo wig just outshines all reality surrounding it. In fact, that attention stealing wig is so powerful that it even draws all your attention when Fabricant rides a bicycle naked.p.s. Did Fabricant...
