Dr. Haissam Bou Said, the Permanent Representative of the International Human Rights Council to the United Nations, claimed in an August 2, 2022 interview on Al-Alam TV (Iran) that as was the case with Osama Bin Laden, there is no evidence that the United States actually killed Al-Qaeda leader Ayman Al-Zawahiri on July 31, 2022. He said that unless proven otherwise, this is a political trick being employed by the United States, and he suggested that it is an attempt by U.S. President Joe Biden to gain additional popularity.

Donald Trump Jr. triggered the left on Monday by saying Navy SEAL friends tell him they spend more time on diversity training than shooting. “I have friends on SEAL teams that told me they spend more time now in diversity training than they do shooting,” he said during a campaign event for Florida State House candidate Carolina Amesty on August 19. After the left accused Trump Jr. of lying, Navy SEAL veteran and podcaster Robert O’Neill, who famously delivered the kill shot to terrorist leader Osama bin Laden, tweeted: He’s telling the truth. I’ve had this discussion with @DonaldJTrumpJr and...

NEWINGTON, N.H., (August 22, 2022) – Sig Sauer has determined that portions of Lot No. JDAR0815 of SIG SAUER 9MM, 115gr, Elite Ball, FMJ (SKU E9MMB1-50), may have powder charge variations that could result in a bullet remaining in the barrel (i.e., a bullet-in-bore obstruction). Firing a subsequent bullet into a bore obstruction could cause firearm damage, rendering the firearm inoperable and subjecting the shooter and bystanders to a risk of serious personal injury.

John Fetterman is not well. That’s been obvious to anyone following the senate race currently going on in Pennsylvania. ... the reality is that Fetterman is a professional bum who has lived off his parents, ignored his doctors, and is currently suffering serious side effects from a massive stroke. His much-heralded “return” to the campaign trail consisted of a speech that lasted about 10 minutes, and he just barely made it through it, ... *** Fetterman has also refused to commit to any debates. And while Mehmet Oz, the GOP candidate, had been very careful not to talk about his...

Long before it professed no prior knowledge of the raid on Donald Trump’s estate, the Biden White House worked directly with the Justice Department and National Archives to instigate the criminal probe into alleged mishandling of documents, allowing the FBI to review evidence retrieved from Mar-a-Lago this spring and eliminating the 45th president’s claims to executive privilege, according to contemporaneous government documents reviewed by Just the News. The memos show then-White House Deputy Counsel Jonathan Su was engaged in conversations with the FBI, DOJ and National Archives as early as April, shortly after 15 boxes of classified and other materials...

In the aftermath of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, President Joe Biden declared to the nation and world: "We are engaged anew in a great battle for freedom. A battle between democracy and autocracy."On her trip to Taiwan, Speaker Nancy Pelosi echoed Biden: "Today, the world faces a choice between democracy and autocracy. America's determination to preserve democracy here in Taiwan and in the world remains iron-clad."But is this truly the world struggle America is in today?Is this the great challenge and threat to the United States?Are autocracy and democracy in a climactic ideological crusade to determine the destiny of mankind?For...

A new poll has brought some good news for Republican U.S. Senate candidate Dr. Mehmet Oz and governor candidate Doug Mastriano. The poll by the Atlanta-based Trafalgar Group surveyed nearly 1,100 likely Pennsylvania voters and found that Oz only trails Democratic opponent John Fetterman, the state’s lieutenant governor, 48.4 percent to 43.5 percent. Trafalgar’s poll had a margin of error of plus/minus 2.9 percentage points. While still having to make up ground, the poll results will likely give the Oz campaign a much-needed morale boost after previous polls had him trailing considerably further behind. Most recently, a Fox News poll...

[…]According to Wayne, his podiatrist sees about 80 patients a week. That’s more than enough for strong statistical significance over 20 months (over 5,000 patients) especially with such a large effect size. 95% are vaccinated.Wayne reports that the podiatrist sees unprecedented rates of injury and death since the vaccines rolled out. He estimates that 80% of his vaccinated elderly are worse off and there is no significant change for his unvaccinated patients.This isn’t “bad luck” because the p-values are too small to be just “bad luck.” I used Julia’s HypothesisTests library to calculate it and the chance of this happening...

Found this for $5.99 in the camping section of Walmart. I have been wanting to have some on hand in case of emergency, and this is way cheaper than I have ever seen it. Could be handy in SHTF times.

AZ Republicans have shot up to a statewide lead of 147,000. This is a gain of 6,000 since just a couple of months ago. In 2016, Rs had a lead of 151,000, but that fell by 2020 to a lead of just 111,000. Clearly the trend is for Rs here, and you have to include thousands such as myself who left the GOP to reregister as "I" after the party did so little to stop the Steal. But we all will be voting R this fall.

Humanae Vitae, Pope Paul VI's 1966 encyclical disallowing the use of artificial contraception in marriage, is expected to be overturned by Pope Francis soon. Among several things to watch out for are, failure to distinguish between contraception methods that likely involve the early abortion of a living fetal human and those which don't; ignoring the capacity of governments to use anti-birth policy as a way of tyrannizing their populations; and ignoring the tendency of contraception to lead to women being treated as objects. A traditional Christmas-time carol, the Coventry Carol, has the line: Herod the King, in his raging, charged...

White House officials have been weighing -- and leaning toward -- the cancellation of up to $10,000 in student loan debt per borrower tied to an income threshold, CNN has learned. According to multiple sources familiar with the discussions, the plan is designed to offer the forgiveness to individuals who earn less than $125,000 per year. In addition to that baseline of student loan debt forgiveness for individuals who fall under a certain income level, administration officials have also recently discussed the possibility of additional forgiveness for specific subsets of the population, according to sources familiar with internal discussions in...

Sports hall, restaurant, club: What can become of churches? In order for churches to be better attended, they sometimes need new functions. This poses challenges for dioceses Last year, more than 72,000 people left the Catholic Church. An indoor football pitch in Wettringen, a parish in North Rhine-Westphalia, measures nine by 18 metres. Nothing special really, yet it attracts attention. For where cheers echo from the vaulted ceiling today, not so long ago it was the prayers of believers.

For the second time, the Pentagon denied a request on Monday by Washington DC Mayor Muriel Bowser to activate the National Guard to assist with thousands of migrants who have been arriving in the nation's capital in recent months.

On Friday, the anti-government Bishop Rolando Alvarez was arrested in Nicaragua. Now there is growing criticism that Pope Francis has not yet taken a clear position on the case. While the police cordoned off the area outside, Bishop Rolando Alvarez and some of his companions celebrated Mass in his church in Matagalpa. The encirclement of the Nicaraguan government critic lasted more than two weeks. His fate caused an international sensation. A picture of him on his knees praying for mercy for the armed police officers went around the world. On Friday, the regime finally struck:

Explanation: Is our Earth warming? Compared to the past 250 million years, the Earth is currently enduring a relative cold spell, possibly about four degrees Celsius below average. Over the past 120 years, though, data indicate that the average global temperature of the Earth has increased by nearly one degree Celsius. The featured visualization video depicts Earth's recent global warming in graphic terms. The depicted temperatures are taken from the Goddard Institute for Space Studies' Surface Temperature Analysis. Already noticeable by many, Earth's recent warming trend is causing sea levels to rise, precipitation patterns to change, and pole ice to...
