A Texas CPS worker was caught in a video obtained by a local FOX station telling a 14-year-old girl at a foster care facility that she would have to engage in prostitution if she wanted to be given something to eat. The underage girl recorded the footage herself after informing her mother that CPS staff had repeatedly encouraged her to engage in prostitution. The girl’s mother, Keisha Bazley, told local Texas media that she has nine children and had originally turned to CPS for help with her 14-year-old daughter, who was experiencing behavioral issues. Ultimately, the girl was placed in...

As National File previously reported, Daniel Panneton wrote an article in The Atlantic which called the...

WASHINGTON, D.C. — White House sources say President Biden expressed sadness upon hearing that the nice blonde nurse who always follows him around every day has come down with COVID. President Biden reportedly first realized his nurse might be sick when he sat down to watch Matlock, and after seven hours she had still not arrived to turn on the television. "I'm sorry to hear that Nurse Abigail got the CovoPox. She'll be sorely missed," said Biden to reporters while attempting to put on his glasses but just repeatedly poking himself in the eyes with them. "I hear it's a...

The 2021 House impeachment vote of former President Donald Trump was one of the most career-wrecking votes in congressional history, as 80 percent of the pro-impeachment members will exit Congress in 2023. With Rep. Cheney’s (R-WY) massive loss Tuesday evening in Wyoming, a mere two of the ten pro-impeachment Republicans remain in the House. Only Reps. David Valadao (R-CA) and Dan Newhouse (R-WA) remain. Newhouse hails from a safer red district, while Valadao is running for reelection in a more contested district, where Trump did not endorse anyone in the primary. Four pro-impeachment Republicans opted to retire and not compete...

It’s time to stop calling them Democrats.This is no longer the party of FDR, JFK, or even Bill Clinton, and it’s time to start calling a spade a spade..***.One of the stated goals of communism, from the Congressional Record in 1963, was to take over one or both political parties from within..They’ve succeeded..***.We’ve been conditioned to believe that communism is just a myth, that it isn’t real, or even if it is real, it only exists in faraway places like China …..But let’s review a few basics: They’re raiding and jailing their political opponents. They’re turning the FBI, CIA, and...

“This washable and reusable toilet paper provides a cost-effective and eco-friendly way to clean yourself, without creating waste or spending a mini fortune over time. “After use, collect pieces in a hamper until laundry day, recommended twice a week. Machine wash with hot water. Tumble dry low or air dry. “You may choose to pre-soak with vinegar or cleaning solution. Once dry, re-roll one at a time.” One customer fumed: “If I saw this in someone’s house I would leave and never come back.” “Imagine the smell and colour of this thing ­after one month.” Personal finance expert, Charlotte Jessop,...

We news junkies are deeply concerned about cultural shifts, education, political wrangling, and more — and we're right to be disturbed. It's the people who pay attention that shift the culture for better or worse. Occasionally, though, you need to remind yourself that there are 330 million people in America, many of whom are just getting through their day, trying to be good people who do the right thing. In the case of six high school football players, that means leaping into action to rescue a woman trapped in a crumpled car that seemed on the verge of bursting into...

Politicians are the ones to blame for the surge in violence and lawlessness, and they seek to avoid any responsibility for the crisis of violence they have created by attempting to shift the blame to Smith & Wesson, other firearm manufacturers and law-abiding gun owners. But rather than confront the failure of their policies, certain politicians have sought more laws restricting the 2nd Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens, while simultaneously continuing to undermine our institutions of law and order. And to suppress the truth, some now seek to prohibit firearm manufacturers and supporters of the 2nd Amendment from advertising products...

As a teacher in Oakland, Calif., Kareem Weaver helped struggling fourth- and fifth-grade kids learn to read by using a very structured, phonics-based reading curriculum called Open Court. It worked for the students, but not so much for the teachers. “For seven years in a row, Oakland was the fastest-gaining urban district in California for reading,” recalls Weaver. “And we hated it.” The teachers felt like curriculum robots—and pushed back. “This seems dehumanizing, this is colonizing, this is the man telling us what to do,” says Weaver, describing their response to the approach. “So we fought tooth and nail as...

Yuval Noah Harari, historian, futurist, and World Economic Forum (WEF) adviser declared that "we just don't need the vast majority of the population that is alive today. The modern technologies we have in the 21st century have rendered most of humanity redundant." Harari admitted that "solving this problem will be difficult. For most common people the most important thing in their lives is family. Yet, to get down to the maximum ideal population of around 500 million persons will require a 95% reduction of the current 7.75 billion who live on the planet. Better birth control may seem like the...

Meet Noella, the youngest transgender model to ever walk the runway in New York Fashion Week. At just 10 years old, Noella has hit the catwalk for Mel Atkinson, the designer behind Trans Clothing Company. ‘It feels good that I’m already inspiring trans kids to be themselves,’ said the mini model. Her parents Dee McMaher, 35, and Ray, 32, are incredibly proud of their daughter who began socially transitioning aged four. Dee, an event director, said: ‘Noella really doesn’t ever get nervous or scared by anything. She’s a tiny professional! ‘She was so excited to go down the catwalk, excited...

New York Times economics columnist Paul Krugman just stepped on another rake by likening President Joe Biden’s insane $740 billion Inflation Reduction Act to Christmas. Biden signed his eco-utopia bill into law yesterday, which allocates $369 billion in taxpayer dollars to new climate spending. Right on cue, Krugman released a new op-ed slobbering how he “wrote back in that 2019 thread, ‘If we’re going to pass anything that helps avert [climate] catastrophe, it will have to be a Christmas tree.’” Krugman’s arbitrary usage of “Christmas tree” was in reference to a “bill that offers a lot of specific payoffs to...

Former President Donald Trump is long gone from the White House. But the "fake news" lingers on. As The Free Press reported on Tuesday, the FBI admitted that it had returned three of Trump's passports that were seized during the raid on his Mar-a-Lago estate on Aug. 8...

There's a new direction we need to go in, but it's not the leftists' direction. If Obama and Biden represent the two poles of the Democrat party, the evil and the profane, and if the Democrats are inexorably dedicated to the path of greater central control, which they are, then the rest of us have an obligation to resist their efforts at every turn. Further, our resistance must extend to our own Republican Party, or those in our party who support the progressive agenda of more central control and a more powerful Administrative State. If a politician suggests he can...

Republicans and other anti-grooming activists are seething after a photo resurfaced of Democratic Senate candidate John Fetterman's family posing with a controversial anime character best known for enslaving a child. The photo, which Fetterman posted on Twitter in April 2019, shows the candidate's wife and three children posing with an exceedingly large man in a creepy demon mask and long black cloak. Experts familiar with the anime genre tell the Washington Free Beacon the masked individual was portraying the character Elias Ainsworth from the Japanese manga series The Ancient Magus' Bride. https://twitter.com/JohnFetterman/status/1117517185759547392?s=20&t=M5HnoEB1-vvva5Mk_kUh8g Fetterman claims to have been in Blair County,...

Shared U.S.-Indian concerns over China's aggressive expansionism led Modi to join the "Quad" partnership alongside the U.S., Australia, and Japan. Benefiting from military export relaxations introduced by the Trump administration, India is also increasing its purchase of U.S. arms and related equipment. Yet even as this cooperation might seem like proof positive of a budding U.S.-Indian alliance, other factors undermine that consideration. For a start, India fails the reciprocity test when it comes to supporting U.S. security concerns. The Pentagon has not responded to my query as to whether the U.S. military attachés in New Delhi are to be afforded...
