While President Biden was recently praising his government for trying to ensure that kids as young as 6-months-old get injected with an experimental mRNA “vaccine” that doesn’t work and has proven to be dangerous, he also flatly stated that “There’s going to be another pandemic.” Maybe Democrats will get “lucky” and one will break out in the weeks leading up to the November 8th election. But, hey, many “experts” are predicting an increase in outbreaks of pestilence and disease. To wit: according to a recent report on France 24, the World Health Organization’s (WHO) emergencies director Michael Ryan said, "The...

Newly elected Rep. Mayra Flores (R-TX) accused House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) of “pushing” her young daughter out of the way during a swearing-in ceremony last week. In a video of the moment shared on social media, the California Democrat can be seen using her elbow to move the child away from her. “I am so proud of my strong, beautiful daughter for not allowing this to faze her,” Flores tweeted, sharing the video. “She continued to smile and pose for the picture like a Queen. No child should be pushed to the side for a photo op. PERIOD!!” During...

The last thing any nation wants to see is the decline of its safety (think: an empire losing strength as barbarians are set to storm the gates). In our case, the signs of decay are there for anyone to see. But of course, there are none so blind as those who will not see. Here are four examples of troubling trends: Leadership: With Biden, America has a chief executive who must resort to cue cards to know how to enter a room, sit down, and give preapproved and scripted answers to reporters' questions while acting as if his answers sprang...

Amid all the partying and gladhanding and making Vladimir Putin a figure of fun, the G-7 summit in Germany managed to avoid the important topics, such as where the hell greenie Germany is going to get energy from and just what it means when it says it's going to support Ukraine forever. Instead, it moved into its comfort zone, which was "infrastructure" and greenie energy for the Third World, as if the Third World needed more corruption and energy shortages, as greenie Germany is experiencing. Naturally, its idea was to throw money — mostly American money — at the problem....

New York Judge Ralph Porzio ruled on Monday that New York City's extension of voting rights to non-U.S. citizens violated the New York Constitution, the state's election law, and the Municipal Home Rule Law — rendering another Democrat attempt to undermine elections illegal, null, and void. A bill creating the new class of non-citizen voters — potentially numbering as many as 900,000 new voters in New York City municipal elections — was passed by the New York City Council in December 2021, but not vetoed or signed by former Mayor Bill de Blasio. After 30 days without action from de...

The descendants of Presidents James Buchanan, Andrew Johnson, and Jimmy Carter can relax. Their families will no longer be associated with a United States President deemed to be the worst in American history. The current occupant of the White House, President Joe Biden, has seized this title after only eighteen months in office. His administration has failed without exception, from their handling of the economy to their disastrous military withdrawal from Afghanistan. Violent crime is increasing in large cities and drug overdose deaths have reached record levels. The President’s disregard for border security has encouraged millions of illegal immigrants to...

SEATTLE - June 5, 2014, 27-year-old Aaron Ybarra of Mountlake Terrace opened fire at Seattle Pacific University, killing one person. As Ybarra attempted to reload his gun he was pepper sprayed by a student security guard named Jon Meis.

So much for the Left’s ‘Night of Rage’. Oh, there were plenty of protesters out and about screaming and yelling about their vaginas and uteruses (uterusi?), and some a-holes vandalized a church and a pregnancy center but all things considered, their Night of Rage was more of a Night of Whining and Complaining. We’ve seen what their rage looks like. Remember the ‘Summer of Love?’ Yeah. This thread goes through the night in greater detail … we especially laughed at the part where the cops were so concerned they ordered Chinese food. OMG NOT A PLASTIC COAT HANGER. EVERYONE RUUUUUUUUUN!...

Member states of both NATO and the European Union, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania have repeatedly called on NATO to provide a substantial increase in the number of foreign troops stationed in the region following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on Feb. 24. The Baltic countries have also pushed for an urgent update to the alliance’s so-called “tripwire” approach. That’s because, under NATO’s existing strategy, Estonia’s Prime Minister Kaja Kallas has warned that the former Soviet state and its historic capital city of Tallinn would be “wiped off the map” in the event of a Russian attack, according to The Financial Times....

The co-owner of a major gaming organization lost his marbles following the U.S. Supreme Court decision to overturn the notorious 49-year-old pro-abortion Roe v. Wade ruling. 100 Thieves co-owner and YouTube streamer Jack ‘CouRage’ Dunlop cried on Twitter after the Dobbs v.

Unfortunately, he didn’t exercise that power. He could have overturned the election!” It’s time for Republican voters to admit that they...

‘That’s what I tried to do — use one standard equally for both sides,’ the former U.S. attorney general told The Federalist Saturday. If Americans believe the U.S. Department of Justice is creating a two-tier justice system in the United States, “the proper remedy is to vote people out of office, including the president,” said former U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr to The Federalist Saturday. Asked what he did as U.S. attorney general to remedy the politicized use of the U.S. Department of Justice, Barr responded he had pressure from both the left and right to weaponize that department for...
