Exclusive: Joseph Farah reviews Obama eligibility issue to mark ex-president's purported birthday Donald Trump was hardly the first "birther." Neither was I. Nor was my colleague Jerome Corsi. And neither was Hillary Clinton. That honor belongs to one person and one person alone – Barack Obama. We all followed suit, but were not the first to raise it. Obama went to extreme lengths to conceal his past. And, indeed, if he was born in the U.S. and was eligible to serve as president, he certainly did his best to create the mystery that led to the question being asked. Years...

[H/T foldspace]Q is the result of the sacrifices and commitment of countless patriots to win back our captured country from the Deep State and achieve the transformation President Trump promised in this campaign video. President Trump has said the awakening of the public is key to this transformation.Q describes this awakening as follows: "The Great Awakening ('Freedom of Thought’), was designed and created not only as a backchannel to the public (away from the longstanding 'mind’ control of the corrupt & heavily biased media) to endure future events through transparency and regeneration of individual thought (breaking the chains of ‘group-think’),...

Here's my view of the Trump rally from D.C. on January 6th, 2021. It was cold and windy. It was an awesome experience. We arrived at the Ellipse at daybreak and the crowds were already there. Decided to stake out a place in the field on the north side of the Washington Monument. By 10:30 am the areas from the Ellipse to the Washington Monument was shoulder to shoulder. I removed my American and Trump flags from the makeshift flagpole and tywrapped my phone to the pole and hoisted it up! The horizon gets a little crooked but overall the...

The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 appears to have a good shot at being signed into law. If Senate Democrats can get Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) to join Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV), the bill will have the necessary 50 votes to pass through the reconciliation process. Let's hope that never happens. The plan would hurt working-class taxpayers and small-business owners across America. The act will introduce a "corporate alternative minimum tax," which will compel a 15% tax on corporate income. It will increase the taxes imposed on certain high-income earners. Finally, it will step up enforcement mechanisms within the IRS....

CNN - Republican senators and the business community are mounting a full-court press on Sen. Kyrsten Sinema to sink – or substantially change – the Democrats’ economic package, arguing in private conversations that the new tax increases would hurt companies in her home state of Arizona. And in a private call with business groups on Tuesday, Sinema asked a question about the bill’s proposed 15% minimum tax on corporations that gave them some hope for optimism. “Is this written in a way that’s bad?” Sinema asked, according to Danny Seiden, president of the Arizona Chamber of Commerce, who relayed the...

Since the early 2000s, Tehran’s construction of gas centrifuge uranium enrichment facilities has been the main source of proliferation concern. Gas centrifuges enrich uranium by spinning uranium hexafluoride (UF6) gas at high speeds to increase the concentration of the uranium-235 (u-235) isotope. Such centrifuges can produce both low-enriched uranium (LEU), which can be used in nuclear power reactors, and highly enriched uranium (HEU), which is one of the two types of fissile material used in nuclear weapons. Tehran asserts that its enrichment program is meant to produce fuel for peaceful nuclear reactors.

[Catholic Caucus] The Diocese of Arlington’s brutal Latin Mass crackdown is cruel. That’s the pointTo feel such stinging cruelty from the leaders of one’s own religion is an especially painful kind of spiritual abuse, one that cannot be easily healed or forgotten.(LifeSiteNews) – Catholics in the Diocese of Arlington, famous for its large number of priests who offer the Traditional Latin Mass in addition to the Novus Ordo, were given grim news on Friday afternoon. Beginning September 8, the feast of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the 21 locations in the diocese where the Old Mass is currently...

Twisted Sister lead singer Dee Snider should be elated to find that someone is still interested in his band’s body of work, but instead, the rocker attacked Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake as a “fascist moron” after a pro-Lake Twitter account shared the lyrics to his 1984 song, “We’re Not Gonna Take It.” Snider responded to a Twitter account describing itself as Lake’s official campaign account, clarifying that the song is a pro-abortion anthem that specifically rallies around a woman’s right to kill her unborn child. “HEY IDIOTS! READ THE 1ST LINE: ‘We’ve got the right to CHOOSE!’ This is...

The district has gone all-in on radical gender theory. The teacher training program mimics the narrative of the academic literature: white Europeans created a false “gender binary”—“man” and “woman”—that “oppresses trans, nonbinary, intersex, and gender-nonconforming people.”

Bringing the hassle back to ABC’s The View on Wednesday, former conservative co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck returned to celebrate the 25th season and confronted the cast with the pro-life alternatives to abortion. And her compassion for life was greatly needed on the show as co-host Whoopi Goldberg ghoulishly proclaimed that since “God doesn't make mistakes” he made her “smart enough to know when” abortion was the right call. While the rest of the cast were trying to scare the audience about states adopting pro-life laws, including co-host Joy Behar falsely suggesting women could not be treated for life-threatening ectopic pregnancies, Hasselbeck...
