Law enforcement was caught off guard by a white supremacist group's demonstration in Boston last weekend, according to Boston Mayor Michelle Wu. Both Wu and U.S. Attorney for Massachusetts Rachael Rollins said they were told by Boston Police and the FBI that neither agency had advance warning that about 100 members of the group Patriot Front planned to march through downtown Boston wearing face coverings. Investigators said they are now reviewing video recordings from the scene to identify members who allegedly assaulted a Black person. Wu said the city needs to be better prepared for the next time there's a...

Canadians will be required to get a booster shot every nine months for the foreseeable future, Health Minister Jean-Yves Duclos told reporters. So if you thought you were fully vaccinated, think again. Duclos said that the previous definitions of “fully vaccinated” makes no sense, explaining that it’s more important that shots are “up to date” and whether or not a person has “received a vaccination in the last nine months.” He added, “We will never be fully vaccinated against COVID-19,” according to Blacklock’s Reporter. Duclos was asked if he was preparing Canadians for the return of vaccine mandates in the...

LOCKPORT, N.Y. — Live to be 100 and some things may not last. "Can you hear her OK, dad?" Bruce Kinyon asked his dad, Roy Kinyon. "Talk again," Roy Kinyon said. However, Roy Kinyon's love of baseball has always remained. It's all thanks to his older brother, Ralph. "He wanted to pitch for the Yankees, so everyday I was out catching them so he could pitch for the Yankees," Roy Kinyon said. Roy Kinyon, a 100-year-old from Lockport, spent so much time trying to make his brother better that he got better. His high school baseball team won the Niagara...

Former President Donald Trump leads President Joe Biden in a hypothetical 2024 presidential matchup, June’s Harvard Caps Harris Poll revealed. The survey, which happened to show Trump standing as the most popular politician in the country, pitted Trump against Biden in a hypothetical matchup. In that scenario, Trump led Biden by three percentage points — 43 percent to 40 percent. Another 17 percent remained unsure. Trump’s lead widened even further when matched against Vice President Kamala Harris, leading by six percent, or 45 percent to 39 percent. In that matchup, 16 percent remained undecided. The survey, overall, found Trump led...

[Catholic Caucus] Bishop Strickland to Pope Francis: Denying Communion to Nancy Pelosi is ‘pastoral care’‘Pastoral care for Mrs. Pelosi is to tell her that she should not receive the Body of Christ until she stops advocating the murder of unborn children,’ wrote the Texas bishop.TYLER, Texas (LifeSiteNews) – Bishop Joseph Strickland told Pope Francis pro-abortion and self-acclaimed “Catholic” Nancy Pelosi should be denied Holy Communion. In a July 4 tweet responding to Pope’s Francis’ criticism of denying pro-abortion politicians Communion, Strickland stated that denying pro-abortion U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is treating her with “pastoral care.” “I thank Pope Francis...

Mina’s World, a cafe in Philadelphia that prided itself in being “Queer-owned,” has officially closed its doors after a woke employee revolt. The cafe was owned by Kate Egghart and Sonam Parikh, two queer activists who started Mina’s in an effort to create an inclusive coffee shop. However, their employees have claimed Egghart and Parikh are anti-black and “gentrifiers.” Gentrifier is a woke term used to describe those who purposely contribute to the displacement of low-income families. Mina’s World was located just around the corner from Malcolm X Park in Philadelphia and employed mostly minority workers. Ironically— prior to the...

In April 2022, I made a video in which I predicted that we had eight months of freedom left. I stand by the timing. We now have six months left – and that takes us until Christmas 2022. I’m not suggesting that we’re all suddenly going to die by Christmas. What I am suggesting (and this is in some ways scarier) is that things are now moving so fast that unless we stand up and defend ourselves we will be too far along the road towards an existence built around the principles of social credit; too far along to stop...

A woke school board director in Washington state is planning to teach children as young as nine about topics like sexual pleasure in a series of workshops at her sex shop. Jenn Mason, who serves as the school board director for the Bellingham School District, is hosting four three-hour sexual education classes in August at her sex shop WinkWink Boutique as part of an event series dubbed the 'Uncringe Academy.' The courses are broken down by age with children 9 to 12 in one class, and children 13 to 17 years old in another. They cost $50 each, but scholarships...

The IRS has reportedly spent $725,000 this year on ammo. Florida GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz has introduced a bill to disarm the Internal Revenue Service. Along with fellow Republican Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (Ga.), Jeff Duncan (S.C.), and Paul Gosar (Ariz.), Gaetz is pushing the "Disarm the IRS Act," which would prohibit the IRS from acquiring (by purchase or otherwise) any ammunition. The bill arrives following Gaetz's discovery that this year alone the IRS has spent $725,000 on ammunition. Odd timing, he says, considering the nationwide shortage of ammo and Biden administration's stated animosity toward gun rights. "Here's the Biden...

A couple of weeks ago, Maajid Nawaz, host of Radical, interviewed Dr. Mike Yeadon PhD, a former vice-president and chief scientific adviser for the drug company Pfizer, about why he believes that the narratives around Covid-19 are false and were put into place deliberately to exert control over society. “You have likely seen Yeadon being interviewed many times previously, but I strongly encourage you to watch this one as he explains items I have never heard him previously discuss,” wrote Dr. Joseph Mercola. Yeadon says you’ve been lied to about the magnitude of the threat represented by this entity called...

A Washington state school board director who owns a sex shop is making headlines after announcing she will teach sex education classes for children as young as 9 on topics such as "sexual anatomy for pleasure" and "safer sex practices for all kinds of sexual activities."

This is the moment a car carrying the leader of a Norwegian anti-Islam group was rammed off the road after he staged a Koran-burning stunt outside a mosque. Lars Thorsen, leader of provocateur group Stop the Islamisation of Norway (SIAN), was driving towards the capital city of Oslo on Saturday around 3pm when the attack happened. Footage taken by anti-immigration activists from Alternativ Media riding in the car behind shows a grey Mercedes B-Class ramming Thorsen's military-style jeep, sending it spinning off the road and on to its roof. Five occupants of the jeep - including Thorsen - suffered injuries...

Minneapolis, Minnesota – Pastor Jane Buckley-Farlee was recently walking through her Minneapolis church’s Cedar-Riverside neighbourhood when an unexpected song broke out. “I heard this music that sounded sort of heavenly,” she told Al Jazeera. At first, she did not know what it was – but after a few moments, she realised it was the adhan, or the Muslim call to prayer. “It was echoing among all of the buildings, but it was still a little hard to hear with all of the traffic,” she recalled. “But it just made me smile. I stopped and listened and just smiled. I must...

Nearly 40 years after Kate Bush released "Running Up That Hill" in 1985, the song has found new life after being used in the fourth season of Stranger Things. The Netflix show boosted the track to the top of the charts and reportedly earned Bush millions of dollars in streaming revenue. According to Luminate (formerly known as SoundScan), the resurgence of the song - — which has just entered its third week at No. 1 on the U.K. singles chart — has brought roughly $2.3 million in streaming royalties, according to CBS News. Because Bush owns the copyright to her...

More than 5 million barrels of oil that were part of a historic U.S. emergency oil reserves release aimed at lowering domestic fuel prices were exported to Europe and Asia last month, according to data and sources, even as U.S. gasoline and diesel prices touched record highs. The export of crude and fuel is blunting the impact of the moves by U.S. President Joe Biden designed to lower record pump prices. Biden on Saturday renewed a call for gasoline suppliers to cut their prices, drawing criticism from Amazon founder Jeff Bezos HOUSTON, July 5 (Reuters) - More than 5 million...

CERN lights up the Large Hadron Collider for Run 3, a four year continuous run after its second long shutdown in 2018. The world's largest particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider, is back in action after a three year break for maintenance and an upgrade with more energy, higher intensity beams and greater precision. The LHC at CERN, outside of Geneva, is set to run 24/7 for nearly four years at a record energy of 13.6 trillion electronvolts. The upgrades should give LHC tools greater precision and allow for more particle collisions, brighter light and more discovery about particles in...

“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.” President Ronald Reagan The year of our Lord 2022, as it turns out, is (so far) not a good year to be an American political liberal. In fact, 2022 may go down as the Democrat Party's...

Summary A tale of three countries: In Austria, they’ve figured out the vaccines are dangerous, so the Health Minister is now blaming the doctors. In New Zealand, the data clearly shows the vaccinated have higher all-cause mortality, so their solution is more vaccines and they bury the papers showing the vaccines are the problem. In Australia, the mandates are gone and a few people are coming to realize they goofed big time.
