In a normal year, America’s heartland would be brimming with lush, green wheat crops – but this is not a normal year. According to reports, western Kansas is a wasteland of parched, dead fields. Wheat crops have been decimated, which means the American food supply will suffer yet another major blow. “There’s nothing out there,” says Vance Ehmke, a wheat farmer from Lane County. “It’s dead. It’s just ankle-high straw.” Ehmke’s farm is one of many that, after being planted several months ago, now looks like a dust bowl. Rows of brown, shriveled plants nest in hardened dirt that is...

Singer Sheryl Crow reacted to the U.S. Supreme Court overruling Roe v. Wade on Friday, proclaiming, “I do not recognize my country.” “Don’t know what to even say. I do not recognize my country,” Crow said in an Instagram post. “We fight to hang on to our military grade weapons. We battle over the smallest of steps toward protecting our families from being shot in grocery stores or at concerts. We suggest arming our teachers rather than facing down the political power of the NRA,” the singer continued. “And now, we take away the right of a woman to have...

In the study, a group of Portuguese researchers analyzed the first monkeypox sequence publicly released on May 20, along with 14 additional sequences released before May 27. Researchers discovered around 50 genetic variations in the viruses, a figure six to 12 times higher than previous studies of other orthopoxviruses, a family of viruses to which monkeypox belongs. The study said the mutation rate may suggest a case of “accelerated evolution.” Monkeypox can infect anyone, but a number of the cases in the US and Europe have been found in gay men, leading health officials to push to raise awareness in...

WASHINGTON, D.C.—Following the U.S. Supreme Court's 6-3 ruling overturning the constitutionality of Roe v. Wade, columnist David French was seen trying to sit at the cool lunch table filled with Trump voters. "Pretty cool we overturned Roe, right fellas?" said French while holding his lunch bag of soy-based foods in one hand and waiting to receive a high five with his other hand. "I can't believe we all did it together as a team who always liked Drumpf. I mean, uh, Trump." The crowd of cool Trump voters barely noticed him as they were busy fist-bumping and listing Trump's many,...

Joe Biden is president. It's time to accept it. But this isn't the case in every reality. We sent one of our Babylon Bee investigative reporters across the multiverse, and he came back with great news from one universe where Trump got reelected. Here are some of the biggest headlines from that universe: Nancy Pelosi announces 38th impeachment proceeding against President Trump. Joe Biden retires quietly to home in Delaware to live out the rest of his days in peace. Unemployment reaches 0% for first time in history, stock market gets so high they have to add another digit to...

Can the West still provide the arsenal of democracy? The war in Ukraine has proven that the age of industrial warfare is still here. The massive consumption of equipment, vehicles and ammunition requires a large-scale industrial base for resupply – quantity still has a quality of its own. The mass scale combat has pitted 250,000 Ukrainian soldiers, together with 450,000 recently mobilised citizen soldiers against about 200,000 Russian and separatist troops. The effort to arm, feed and supply these armies is a monumental task. Ammunition resupply is particularly onerous. For Ukraine, compounding this task are Russian deep fires capabilities, which...

With the U.S. Supreme Court having overturned Roe v. Wade Friday, its landmark and controversial 1973 decision that established a core federal right to have an abortion, Pennsylvania’s governor’s race would seem to be a perfect referendum on the question - if, that is, there weren’t so many other issues. In this corner, you have Republican nominee Doug Mastriano, a state Senator from Franklin County who supports rolling back of Pennsylvania’s current abortion law to at least the so-called heartbeat threshold, which medical authorities have said essentially means a ban on abortions after about six weeks of pregnancy. Mastriano has...

Three female leaders in the Democratic Party, including Rep. Maxine Waters of California, took public shots at the Supreme Court on Friday, after the nation's highest court overturned the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, which had legalized abortion nationwide. While addressing a crowd of advocates of abortion rights and protesters outside the court building in Washington, Waters shouted: "Women are going to control their bodies, no matter how they try and stop us. The hell with the Supreme Court, we will defy them." Around that same time, progressive Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., was chanting "illegitimate" with a number of protesters,...

U.S. Women’s National Team player and outspoken liberal activist Megan Rapinoe is blasting men for their “silence” on the abortion issue and pleading with them to “stand up.” “How sad a day this is for me personally, for my teammates, for just all of the people out there who this is going to affect,” Rapinoe said at the outset of her Zoom call with reporters. “Pro-choice means that you get to choose,” she said. “Pro-choice allows other people to be pro-life if that is what works for them, or that is what their beliefs are, or if that is where...

Please remember all women who were duped into thinking that their pregnancy was just a "clump of cells" and not a human baby and went on to have an abortion since it was freely available under Roe v Wade. Please don't believe that all women who had abortions are hoes, especially in the early days. Many women believed the propaganda and succumbed to it, only to regret it later.

Two-time failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton on Friday condemned the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. “Today’s Supreme Court opinion will live in infamy as a step backward for women’s rights and human rights,” Hillary said. “Most Americans believe the decision to have a child is one of the most sacred decisions there is, and that such decisions should remain between patients and their doctors,” she continued.

Hours after UN rights office claims Shireen Abu Akleh killed by Israeli security forces, military says it can’t complete investigation without examining bullet, held by PA. The Israeli military on Friday rejected a United Nations report claiming that its soldiers shot the bullet that killed al Jazeera reporter Shireen Abu Akleh on May 11, saying the investigation was flawed without access to crucial ballistic data. In a statement titled “Where is the bullet,” the Israel Defense Forces again urged the Palestinian Authority to hand over the bullet, as it and government ministers questioned the methodology and fairness of the probe....

An angry House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) on Friday blamed former President Donald Trump, as well as Republican leadership, for Friday’s massive victory for life, deeming the Supreme Court ruling — which allows states to set their own laws on abortion, certainly saving countless lives — “cruel” and “heart-wrenching.” “Today, the Republican-controlled Supreme Court has achieved the GOP’s dark and extreme goal of ripping away women’s right to make their own reproductive health decisions,” the 82-year-old Democrat said in a statement, blaming Trump, as well Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and the Republican Party, for making the pro-life victory...

I’m speechless. CNN’s Alisyn Camerota and Ana Navarro bully Republican strategist Alice Stewart because she explained how the country has a lot of pregnancy and infant crisis centers to help women and their babies before, during, and after birth. But since everything might not go to plan. Instead of allowing Stewart to explain the massive amount of resources women can use they interrupt and speak over her. Navarro uses her family members who have disabilities in her argument. Evil. Pure freaking evil coming out of this woman’s mouth. My mother raised me by herself during my first year. I was...

The Pontifical Academy for Life's statement has been met with mixed responses, with some suggesting the Academy was displeased at the overturning of Roe v. Wade.VATICAN CITY (LifeSiteNews) – The Pontifical Academy for Life has issued a “bizarre” statement following the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, calling for a “a non-ideological debate” to determine the place “the protection of life has in a civil society.” The U.S. Supreme Court issued its decision this morning in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, upholding Mississippi’s 15-week abortion ban, overturning Roe v. Wade, and delivering the pro-life cause its...

ABC News journalist Terry Moran has discovered judicial activism. Minutes after the overturning of Roe v. Wade on Friday, he derided conservative “judges in politicians’ robes.” Just in time for a ruling the left hates, Moran declared the era of the Supreme Court being “legitimate” is now over. Breaking in to live coverage after Roe fell, Moran used swing vote John Roberts as a proxy for his own outrage: “[Roberts] says the Court is too full of certainty on this issue and he would wait for the next case to come. He's lost control of this Court, but it is...

One of their earlier hits, a 70s masterpiece from a legendary band.

The crew at Telemundo News earnestly joined their mainstream media counterparts in the collective meltdown over the Supreme Court´s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. Yet, in the case of anchor Felicidad Aveleyra, her eagerness to condemn the end of federalized abortion rights, led her to break two holy commandments of the abortion-loving, pronoun-obsessed liberal media: calling women, women- as opposed to birthing people- and babies, babies - and not ‘products’, as they’ve been known to refer to the unborn at Telemundo. Here we can see a solemn Aveleyra, dressed in mourning black, vent her disappointment at “our modern country...
