  • How private is your period-tracking app? Not very, study reveals

    Of the 10 pregnancy apps, 10 period trackers and five wearables reviewed in the study, only seven were deemed to have safe user data and privacy practices. Most collected large amounts of personal data and shared it with third parties such as data brokers and advertisers. The study also examined security practices and found eight apps failed to meet minimum security​ ​standards and allowed weak passwords. Many apps also offered unclear policies surrounding police warrants for user data or made no stance on such requests. Period tracking apps are used by nearly one in three women in the US, according...

    Moguls are lavishing ever-larger fortunes on the rustic life, prompted in part by the pandemic.. ... America remains one of the last countries where so many individuals own colossal swaths of land, some controlling acreage larger than Delaware. The West, a lodestar in the nation’s story, holds an enduring allure for modern land barons. ... Americans have long looked West to enrich their holdings, panning for mineral rights. The Rockefellers accumulated massive fiefdoms of land, eventually donating much of their holdings to the National Park Service. But the pandemic prompted a Western land grab, with moguls fleeing the cities for...
  • Cheney’s Humiliating Defeat Is Another Sign That We Are Winning

    Here's a thought exercise – would Liz Cheney have gotten more or fewer votes than she did if she had announced, right before the election, "I have monkeypox?" Considering that the pus plague is polling better than she did in the Wyoming primary the other night, perhaps she should have just announced that "I am monkeypox." She is Republican monkeypox, you know. She is a walking, talking, warmongering, loathsome disease infecting the nether regions of the Republican Party, and her resounding rejection by the decent Americans of Wyoming demonstrates that we are curing the infection that is her kind. The...

    Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell expressed concern Thursday about Republicans’ ability to take back the Senate during the upcoming November midterms, as polls show GOP candidates trailing Democrats in key races. “I think there’s probably a greater likelihood the House flips than the Senate. Senate races are just different, they’re statewide, candidate quality has a lot to do with the outcome,” McConnell told reporters, according to Frank Thorp V of NBC News.

    "Usually when someone loses a congressional race by more than 37% in a safe district her daddy bought for her and by more actual votes than she even received herself they would go off and reflect. Instead what turned out to be a great day for Patriots was a very bad day for COMMUNIST Liz Cheney (a known election theft denier AND colluder with alt-far-left-democRATs), but she decided to double down on her betrayal of America anyway. So rather than concentrate on bettering herself, such as to stop being a useful idiot for NaziPiglosi (AKA Nancy Pelosi) or..."

Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. "But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.

    The U.S. will provide 50,000 monkeypox vaccine doses specifically for large events with high attendance by gay and bisexual men in an effort to better reach the community most at risk right now, health officials said Thursday. Dr. Rochelle Walensky, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said communities hosting Pride and other events can order additional shots to offer vaccinations on-site. The CDC is asking jurisdictions that order more vaccine for these events to provide a plan on how they will educate attendees about the risk factors associated with monkeypox, Walensky said. The education outreach includes tips...

    Shared hotel rooms. Fake militias. Booze and pot. Planted evidence. Phony bomb makers. Criminal FBI informants. Wife-beating wife-swappers. No, that’s not the latest iteration of the “X Files” but the real-life drama of the FBI-concocted scheme to “kidnap” Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer in 2020. The better-than-television saga is again unfolding in a Grand Rapids courtroom this month as the Department of Justice retries two men charged with conspiring to kidnap Whitmer right before the 2020 presidential election. In April, prosecutors failed to win a single conviction in one of the government’s biggest domestic terror investigations in decades. A jury acquitted...

    He’s a century old and still fabulous. A heroic World War II veteran who bravely spoke up for gay rights in the “Don’t ask, don’t tell” era celebrated his 100th birthday with a snazzy rainbow-colored hat and matching birthday cake last month. Rupert “Twink” Starr — an LGBTQ activist who earned a Bronze Star for his bravery during the Battle of the Bulge — threw a birthday bash with pals at his home in Columbus, Ohio, on July 16, according to reports. At the party, the spunky centenarian wore flamboyantly decorated pink costume glasses and a hat topped with rainbows...

    [Catholic Caucus] Grillo on “Child Popes,” Mass Scandals, and Incurable TradsAbove: dramatic performance of H. C. Andersen’s “The Emperor’s New Clothes.”y article last week analyzed a revealing blog post from the influential Sant’Anselmo professor of liturgy Andrea Grillo, whose work was a major influence on Traditionis Custodes. In fact, he finds it difficult to restrain his enthusiasm for his brainchild, whom we may nickname “T.C.” For T.C.’s first birthday, as if to tell him some fanciful bedtime story, the professor wished to relate the tale of how a wonderful papal diktat came into existence.

    Former President Donald Trump wanted to name Sidney Powell as the special counsel to investigate the presidential race, the former CEO of Overstock.com said in a court filing Thursday. Powell, a lawyer who helped Trump’s attempt to find fraud in the 2020 election, was in the Oval Office in December 2020 along with former Gen. Michael Flynn and Overstock’s Patrick Byrne to discuss the outlandish election claims, according to court papers filed in the Southern District of Florida. During the meeting, Trump and Powell discussed alleged FBI reports of “foreign interference” in the election involving SolarWinds and the hacking of...

    Dr. Walensky (aka Hot Mess Walensky), CDC Director announced today a Great Reset to take place in the CDC because of shortcomings within the agency. Citing the public's misplaced opinion that the CDC had failed in its response to the Wuhan/Fauci Virus Pandemic, the director has announced changes to correct that misinformation. In the future, all CDC guidance will be in digital form posted to the official website. No printed or paper documents will be issued. This will ensure that guidance can be updated instanteously without old outdated material remaining to confuse. A new armed 20,000 medical police force will...
