    Newsmax host Eric Bolling and former National Security Advisor John Bolton had a blowout over Donald Trump’s foreign policy on Thursday. Bolling brought up remarks Bolton made in an interview with ABC News back in 2020 after he left the Trump White House. “I think we’re in a weaker position around the world,” Bolton said of Trump’s foreign policy at the time. “I think we have given up leadership in a wide variety of areas. Bolling confronted Bolton and juxtaposed U.S. standing in the world then under Trump with the country now under President Joe Biden. “Ambassador, under Biden, we...

    LONDON (AP) — The World Health Organization says it’s holding an open forum to rename the disease monkeypox, after some critics raised concerns the name could be derogatory or have racist connotations. WHO said the decision was made following a meeting of scientists this week and in line with current best practices for naming diseases, which aims to “avoid causing offense to any cultural, social, national, regional, professional, or ethnic groups, and minimize any negative impact on trade, travel, tourism or animal welfare.” Monkeypox was first named in 1958 when research monkeys in Denmark were observed to have a “pox-like”...
  • Russia’s economy contracts sharply as war and sanctions take hold.

    The Russian economy contracted steeply in the second quarter as the economic consequences of its war in Ukraine took hold. The economy shrank 4 percent from April through June compared with a year ago, the Russian statistics agency said on Friday. It is the first quarterly gross domestic product report to fully capture the change in the economy since the invasion of Ukraine in February, when Western sanctions shut Russia off from much of the global financial system, and many countries severed trading relationships with Moscow. It was also a sharp reversal from the first quarter, when the economy rose...
  • McDonald's plans to reopen in Kyiv and western Ukraine

    08/12/2022 11:41:13 AM PDT · by mylife · 15 replies
    McDonald's has announced plans to reopen outlets in Ukraine, which closed after Russia's invasion in March. The fast food chain said it hoped the move would help restore a "small but important sense of normalcy". There will be a phased reopening over the next several months in Kyiv and western Ukraine in areas deemed safe, the burger giant said. McDonald's had more than 100 restaurants in Ukraine before the conflict started. The company has continued to pay wages to more than 10,000 staff since then. "We've spoken extensively to our employees who have expressed a strong desire to return to...
  • Judge revives Obama-era ban on coal sales from federal lands

    BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) — A federal judge has reinstated a moratorium on coal leasing from federal lands that was imposed under former President Barack Obama and then scuttled under former President Donald Trump. Friday’s ruling from U.S. District Judge Brian Morris requires government officials to complete a new environmental review before they can resume coal sales from federal lands. Among President Joe Biden’s first actions in his first week in office was to suspend oil and gas lease sales — a move later blocked by a federal judge — and he faced pressure from environmental groups to take similar action...

    (Translation) Actress Anne Heche died today at age 53 years after being disconnected from life support one week after being in a serious automobile accident that left her in a coma. Her family made this difficult decision following a brain-death diagnosis. It was said that Heche decided how to dispose of her organs since she was a donor. Her closest relatives thanked her fans who had sent the actress messages of support during the past few days and especially praised the work done by "the staff and the wonderful nurses" who cared for her at the hospital. Anne Heche was...

    On Friday’s broadcast of CNN’s “At This Hour,” Assistant House Speaker Rep. Katherine Clark (D-MA) responded to questions on whether the Inflation Reduction Act will lower prices in the near term by pointing to prescription drug provisions in the bill that don’t kick in for years and saying that “we’re already seeing gas starting to come down. The policies we’ve been working on are working.” Host Kate Bolduan asked, “You’ve named this bill the Inflation Reduction Act, which is really just asking voters to hold you accountable to do just that. And the CBO says that the bill’s going to...

    Any mention of Reps. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) and Elise Stefanik (R-NY) makes her very angry, Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) told the Atlantic in a published article by Mark Leibovich on Friday. Cheney’s anger comes after McCarthy led a vote of no confidence against her among Republican House members in May. The vote forced her to exit the third most powerful position in the GOP House caucus, the conference chair, whose responsibility it is to raise money for the party.

    Former President Donald Trump’s lawyer says the president and his family were able to watch much of the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago from New York because a closed-circuit television system was still on. “I think the folks in New York — President Trump and his family — they probably had a better view than I did. Because they had the CCTV, they were able to watch,” Christina Bobb said Thursday on the “Real America’s Voice” program. Ms. Bobb said there was some confusion about whether the cameras had to be turned off during Monday’s raid. Ultimately, people on site determined...

    New rules on pork production will lead to regional shortages. Bay State voters in 2016 approved a referendum that would prohibit the sale of products from farms that confine “any breeding pig [sow], calf raised for veal, or egg-laying hen in a way that prevents the animal from lying down, standing up, fully extending its limbs, or turning around freely.” Hog farmers would be most affected since nearly all are housed in individual pens. “There’s so many things that there’s shortages on, it’s almost like throwing salt on a wound,” ...If Massachusetts can prohibit the sale and mere distribution of...

    The warrant that authorized the search of former President Donald Trump’s residence at Mar-a-Lago shows it was issued by U.S. Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart on Aug. 5, 2022, at 12:12 p.m.—nearly three full days before the Justice Department and FBI conducted a raid to execute it. The raid did not occur until the morning of Aug. 8, 2022, when federal agents from the FBI arrived at Mar-a-Lago to execute the search warrant. The document, obtained and reviewed by Breitbart News, shows that the DOJ and FBI waited several days after Reinhart approved the warrant to conduct the raid, something that...

    Biden’s Justice Department has done anything but apply the rule of law ‘evenly, without fear or favor.’ Hunter Biden is Exhibit A. Attorney General Merrick Garland addressed the FBI’s raid of former President Donald Trump’s Florida residence on Thursday afternoon, three days after the Department of Justice embarked on an unprecedented escalation of its persecution of political opponents. “Faithful adherence to the rule of law is the bedrock principle of the Justice Department and of our democracy,” Garland said. “Upholding the rule of law means applying the law evenly, without fear or favor. Under my watch, that is precisely what...

    After the fascist FBI raided Donald Trump’s private residence, Republican support for the former president hit a record high. Far-left Politico reports that a record high of 58 percent of Republican voters now say they would vote for Trump in a 2024 presidential primary. Additionally, a record high 71 percent now say they want Trump to run again in 2024. Trump’s previous high for the question about voting for him in a 2024 primary was 56 percent, in March of 2022. The last time this poll was taken, last month, Trump earned 54 percent support. Support for Gov. Ron DeSantis...
