Remember for how many years the media and leftist political machine were screaming about Donald Trump’s supposed Russia collusion? Well, that turned out to be baseless nonsense, but there is a “president’s” son who has ties to Russian prostitutes, according to new evidence. The Washington Examiner reported on new evidence linking Hunter Biden to a Russian-tied escort ring, and The Daily Mail’s revelation indicates that Joe knew Hunter had been doing rotten deals with China.

Pennsylvania House Republicans have put a condition on providing funding for four universities: University of Pittsburgh, Penn State University, Temple University, and Lincoln University must certify that they are not engaging in research or experimentation using fetal tissue obtained from elective abortions. The University of Pittsburgh, commonly known as “Pitt,” attracted criticism in 2021 when the public became aware that the school uses tissue from aborted human babies in its research. A 2020 article in the journal “Nature” detailed, in words and photos, how Pitt researchers grafted scalps of human babies onto the backs of lab rats and mice and...

CNN touted that it grabbed the first interview with Vice President Kamala Harris since the pro-life verdict in the Dobbs case, and anchor Dana Bash repeatedly pressed Harris from the left on Monday about taking all kinds of executive and legislative actions to permit more abortions, including scrapping the filibuster in the Senate. In the 4 pm hour, Bash asked six questions pressuring Harris from the left on abortion. That was all that was shown. In the 6 pm hour, Bash asked another ten questions pressuring Harris from the left. She ended with two neutral questions about inflation, and a...

Are CNN and MSNBC the official mouthpieces of the abortion movement? Since the leak of the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization draft decision, leftwing cable networks have conducted 65 televised interviews with Planned Parenthood employees, amounting to over four hours of airtime. MRC analysts combed all 6:00am to 12:00am ET coverage on CNN and MSNBC between May 2 – the date the draft was leaked – and June 27, and found that former and current Planned Parenthood officials had appeared as guests a combined total of 65 times. That amounts to more than one interview per day on average....

Sounds like cackles to me.

CNN)A Texas state court has issued a temporary restraining order against certain local and state officials, barring them from enforcing a nearly century-old abortion ban in the state. The order will have the effect of allowing some Texas clinics -- at least for a short period -- to resume the procedure for up to around six weeks into the pregnancy. A separate Texas law prohibiting abortion, its so-called trigger ban, will go into effect within the next few weeks. Tuesday's temporary restraining order will last until July 12, according to the Harris County Attorney's Office. The court has scheduled a...

The MARSIS instrument on the European Space Agency’s Mars Express spacecraft, famous for its role in the discovery of signs of liquid water on the Red Planet, is receiving a major software upgrade that will allow it to see beneath the surfaces of Mars and its moon Phobos in more detail than ever before.

A majority of Americans oppose adding more seats to the Supreme Court, in contrast with recent calls to expand the number of justices in the nation's highest court raised by progressive Democrats and members of the public, according to a new poll. After the Supreme Court voted in favor of overturning Roe v. Wade last week thanks to the support of the conservative supermajority of justices, the idea of expanding the number of seats in the court to re-establish some balance and fairness has been floated. The expansion is legally possible, as the size of the court isn't fixed by...

WASHINGTON — Earlier this month, when Sen. Bernie Sanders said he would not challenge President Joe Biden in 2024, Biden was so relieved he invited his former rival to dinner at the White House the next night. Biden has been eager for signs of loyalty — and they have been few and far between. Facing intensifying skepticism about his capacity to run for reelection when he will be nearly 82, the president and his top aides have been stung by the questions about his plans, irritated at what they see as a lack of respect from their party and the...
