Things will not be the same after this. Cassidy Hutchinson, a top aide to Trump’s White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, provided compelling testimony Tuesday that former president Donald Trump is singularly culpable for the Capitol riot. [cut] Instead of trying to stop it, he willfully exacerbated the problem — and would apparently have made it worse still if the Secret Service had not been courageously insubordinate. That’s what we learned today. Things will not be the same after this. Note: The original version of this column incorrectly stated that, on January 6, 2021, President Trump and his Secret...

Hillary Clinton is a truly ugly person. She was the architect of the Russian collusion accusation plot against Donald Trump, a plot created to distract the country from her abuse of intelligence and her emails. It put the country through years of unnecessary pain. Clinton condemned half of the country as "deplorable." This time, she puts her devious nature to work against one on the finest Americans alive today- Clarence Thomas. Without a doubt, Clinton solicited Gayle King to conduct an interview with Clinton on CBS Mornings as a vehicle for impeaching Thomas. In the exchange the harridan claimed: "I...

Fox News and other members of the corporate press praised Cassidy Hutchinson’s testimony to the January 6 Committee just hours before Secret Service agents reportedly announced their intent to contradict Hutchinson’s testimony under oath.Hutchinson was a White House aide during the final days of the Trump administration.During a surprise hearing of the January 6 committee, Hutchinson claimed White House Deputy chief of staff Tony Ornato told her former President Donald Trump tried to commandeer the presidential Suburban during the capitol riot and became upset when Secret Service agent Bobby Engel tried to stop him. Hutchinson claimed that Trump “said something...

Like many senior citizens, I have been bewildered by the rapid degeneration of our American society. A half-century ago, we were a decent people and a benevolent force in global affairs. Even then, we had to contend with drugs, violence, pornography, and the materialism engendered by prosperity, but we somehow managed to keep these malignancies at sub-critical levels. But by 1990, even though the threat of Communism seemed to be fading away, we had become aware that something was seriously wrong. Consider Michelle's famous "Pollyanna" monolog in TV's "Knots Landing":

Former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson’s Tuesday testimony ought to ring the death knell for former President Donald Trump’s political career. Trump is unfit to be anywhere near power ever again. Hutchinson’s resume alone should establish her credibility. The 25-year-old had already worked at the highest levels of conservative Republican politics, including in the offices of Sen. Ted Cruz (TX) and House Minority Whip Steve Scalise (LA), before becoming a top aide for former Trump chief of staff Mark Meadows. In short, Hutchinson was a conservative Trumpist true believer and a tremendously credible one at that. She did not overstate...

The establishment media treated the testimony Tuesday of former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson at the January 6 Committee as if it were damning for Trump — before her claims began to fall apart.The fact that Hutchinson was seen actually hugging members of the January 6 Committee, as if they were partners in some joint enterprise rather than investigators seeking the truth, ought to have raised red flags — but did not, until it was too late.The Los Angeles Times, among others — including Fox News — set aside the basic rules of journalism, accepting as fact the sudden claims...

The COVID policies promoted by Dr. Fauci, the World Health Organization, CDC and the majority of influential public health “experts” had devastating consequences, according to a new analysis published by Nature. The report suggests that over 75 million people have been thrown into poverty, defined as making less than $1.90 US per day, than were expected before the pandemic response started. This graphic shows how previous expectations were for global poverty rates to decline, only for the trends to completely reverse once lockdowns got underway: ... Income losses were also dramatic across all demographics, but especially targeted lower earning workers....

Former President Donald Trump reaffirmed his support of Arizona U.S. Senate candidate Blake Masters, calling the candidate “an America First fighter” who has “my complete and total endorsement.”COMPLETE AND TOTAL ENDORSEMENT pic.twitter.com/T02CPKYRRp— Blake Masters (@bgmasters) June 27, 2022“Blake Masters is an incredible person, a very smart guy, and an America First fighter,” Trump stated in a video released by Masters. “I endorsed Blake because he will protect our border, he stands for life, and he’s strong on election fraud. Frankly, he’s strong on everything needed to keep Arizona first.” . . . . . Trump endorsed Masters on June 2,...

The conflict in Ukraine is driving a modernization of NATO weaponry, honing the alliance’s ability to face off against Russia and adding to the list of unintended consequences from Moscow’s invasion of its smaller neighbor. Former East Bloc NATO members have been arming Ukraine with Soviet-designed equipment similar to Kyiv’s existing gear. That has permitted a military housecleaning of their own arsenals on a scale that would have been unimaginable months ago. In turn, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization will help its eastern members replace those arms with newer ones, greatly improving efficiency.

Virginia “Ginni” Thomas’s lawyer sent a response Tuesday to the January 6 Select House Committee, just over one week after they formally requested her testimony. Thomas, wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, has become embroiled in the investigation into the January 6 riot, and the committee noted in their formal testimony request that they believe she has “information relevant” to their probe.

The vote is 5-4. Clarence Thomas dissents, joined by Alito, Gorsuch, and Barrett. The is the second and final opinion of the day.

Russia said on Wednesday that restrictions imposed by Norway were blocking the transport of goods to Russian-populated settlements on the Arctic archipelago of Svalbard and called on Oslo to resolve the issue as soon as possible or face consequences. The ministry said that it summoned Norway's Chargé d'Affaires to protest the restrictions, which it said were blocking the transport of food and medical equipment. Svalbard is part of Norway, although Russia has the right to exploit the archipelago's natural resources under a treaty signed in 1920 and maintains a diplomatic presence in the largely Russian- and Ukrainian-populated settlement of Barentsburg.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Donald Trump rebuffed his own security’s warnings about armed protesters in the Jan. 6 rally crowd and made desperate attempts to join his supporters as they marched to the Capitol, according to dramatic new testimony before the House committee investigating the 2021 insurrection. Cassidy Hutchinson, a little-known former White House aide, described an angry, defiant president who was trying that day to let armed protesters avoid security screenings at a rally that morning to protest his 2020 election defeat and who later grabbed at the steering wheel of the presidential SUV when the Secret Service refused to...

Why Are So Many Young People Dying Suddenly?If the push notifications on my computer are any indication, an alarming trend is unfolding before our eyes: young, seemingly healthy individuals are dropping like flies, dying suddenly.It wasn’t always like this. Sure, the death notifications of high-profile figures would come occasionally, but they were usually for those in their 80s or 90s who had simply come to the end of a long life, or for young individuals who had committed suicide. Now it’s different.The other day, it was Baltimore Ravens linebacker Jaylon Ferguson. He was 26 and had played three seasons of...

It was January 2007 when Apple CEO and co-founder Steve Jobs walked onto a stage at the MacWorld convention and introduced the world to a new kind of phone. It was called an iPhone, and it became available to the public June 29, 2007. Little did anyone know it would change the way we communicate in general and, in particular, the way we look at our phones. Carnegie Mellon University professor and computer scientist Tom Mitchell said the iPhone was a “game changer” when it first came out. “Even though there had been portable phones, they were still a phone,”...

In the wake of a leaked draft decision from the U.S. Supreme Court that would overturn Roe v. Wade, its 1973 ruling that made abortion legal across America, a TikTok user said in a now-viral video that "hookup culture" would be destroyed if abortion is no longer federally protected. What are the details? "In case you're a man who doesn't care about Roe v. Wade, just know that if abortion gets banned, hookup culture will be absolutely decimated," Bridget Gwyn wrote in text accompanying her Monday night TikTok video, according to the Daily Dot. "Hookup culture" is a synonym...
