Former President Trump on Wednesday called on Republicans to boot Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) from his post as Senate minority leader, accusing the senator of being a “pawn for the Democrats.” In a statement, Trump cited a Wednesday story from The Federalist about McConnell and his wife Elaine Chao’s alleged ties to China in calling for the senator’s ouster from his longtime leadership post. “Mitch McConnell is not an Opposition Leader, he is a pawn for the Democrats to get whatever they want,” Trump said in his statement. “He is afraid of them, and will not do what has to...

The news of the week concerns a new item that NBC has just begun to insert into their standard polling. You know how pollsters like to ask “which of these is most important to you in this election,” and then they list a bunch of wildly different issues – domestic and international, social, economic, foreign policy, etc. – and ask you to choose or rank them? Well, NBC’s newest twist on that list is to include asking whether one of their top fears is the category, “Threats to Democracy.” Sounds ominous, doesn’t it? Like so many of these catch-all poll...

In mid-April 2020, Dr. Fauci admitted that it was he and Dr. Birx who persuaded President Trump to lock down the US economy knowing the massive destruction this would cause in jobs, lives, learning, child development, and commerce. Dr. Tony Fauci and Dr. Deborah Birx used the Imperial College Model to persuade President Trump to lock down the ENTIRE US ECONOMY. The fraudulent model predicted 2.2 million American deaths from the coronavirus pandemic The authors of the Imperial College Model shared their findings with the White House Coronavirus task force in early March Dr. Fauci and Dr. Birx then met...

It’s the height of summer, and Amos Miller has much on his mind as he surveys the bounty of the land. The Upper Leacock Amish farmer and proprietor of Miller’s Organic Farm thinks about the field of hay he must bale before an impending thunderstorm arrives. He studies his herd of 45 dairy cows staying cool underneath a grove of trees. Miller contemplates ongoing food shortages that have hit grocery stores for months around the country. He also has the looming threat of a possible jail sentence and more than $300,000 in fines in relation to his years-long court battle...

For years, the McConnell and Chao families have cultivated a relationship that enriches the couple and grants status to the Chaos’ shipping company. For decades, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and his wife Elaine Chao have maintained a glaring conflict of interest, conducting extensive government business despite the Chao family’s deep ties to China through a maritime shipping company. Now, former President Donald Trump is calling attention to the top Republican’s problematic China ties, while most of Washington remains silent. “Why do Republicans Senators allow a broken down hack politician, Mitch McConnell, to openly disparage hard working Republican candidates for...

The state at the center of Democrats’ uphill drive to keep the House just gave the party the strongest signal yet that their fortunes might be reversing. After a special election campaign centered on abortion rights, turnout surged Tuesday in Democratic Rep.-elect Pat Ryan’s home turf of Ulster County — the most heavily populated section of New York’s battleground 19th District. Ryan’s margins even narrowly exceeded President Joe Biden’s performance over Donald Trump’s in the county in 2020, giving him the cushion to withstand drop-off elsewhere in the district and win a bellwether race just months before the general election.

Just a good black and white mystery movie for a Wednesday night... Enjoy!

Public health experts are touting ventilation as a less-intrusive way to stop tiny particles carrying the virus from traveling through the air. But uptake of better practices has been slow. Enter the Corsi-Rosenthal Box, a do-it-yourself air filtration system that has taken the internet by storm. Each box typically costs under $100 to make and is more effective than other, pricier options like High Efficiency Particulate Air filters. The simple contraption consists of a box fan, four MERV13 furnace filters that can be purchased online or in store, some cardboard and strips of tape. It’s the brainchild of air quality...

Well, he did it. Waving his baronial wand, President Biden on Wednesday canceled student debt for some 40 million borrowers on no authority but his own. This is easily the worst domestic decision of his Presidency and makes chumps of Congress and every American who repaid loans or didn’t go to college. The President who never says no to the left did their bidding again with this act of executive law-making, er, breaking. The government will cancel $10,000 for borrowers making less than $125,000 a year and $20,000 for those who received Pell grants. The Administration estimates that about 27...

Kobe Bryant’s widow was awarded $16 million as part of a $31 million jury verdict Wednesday against Los Angeles County for deputies and firefighters sharing grisly photos of the NBA star, his 13-year-old daughter and other victims killed in a 2020 helicopter crash.

For much of the midterm campaign, Democrats have grappled with how to define their message, weighing slogans like “Democrats deliver” and “Build back better,” and issuing warnings against “ultra-MAGA” Republicans. Now, a coalition of progressive organizations has settled on what its leaders hope will be a unified pitch from the left. This November, they plan to argue, Americans must vote to protect the fundamental freedoms that “Trump Republicans” are trying to take away. ... The move is the latest evidence that Democrats....are increasingly seeking to reclaim language about freedom and personal liberty from Republicans. It is a dynamic that grew...

Andrew Tate made his millions running cam girls and milking money out of the incels that watch them. He loves male promiscuity and he has a materialistic obsession with expensive cars. And me, as a Christian, am a big fan of his and think he is the biggest intellectual force for good for Western society since Jordan Peterson. The most googled man on the planet for the past month or so has been underrepresented here on Freerepublic so I wanted to let everyone know about him just as he was in the process of getting cancelled by every social media...

A mysterious and controversial billboard warning people against moving from California to Texas looms over passersby in LA and San Francisco this week.

We’ve been waiting for a very long time for someone inside the FBI to come forward and blow the lid off this disgraced bureau… and just when we had almost gone up on any “decent” rank-and-file agents, a flood of whistleblowers has finally come forward. Yes, the calvary is here, and they’re opening up and telling a lot of really wild and damning stories about what’s really going on inside the hallowed halls of the disgraceful FBI. It’s about time… The Washington Times reported that FBI whistleblowers accused bureau management in different field offices of corruption, cover-ups and retaliation against...

Shopping at Wal Mart can be stressful, and sometimes you just want to take the edge off. That’s what 42 year old Florida Man James John Perez with a bottle of vodka did last Friday at a Walmart in Sebastian Florida. Sebastian is on the East Coast, just north of Port St. Lucie – I had to look it up. So last Friday around 2pm, James grabbed a bottle of McCormick Vodka from the liquor store section of the Walmart, along with some roadies – a 6 pack of Smirnoff Ice in the cans. According to the Sebastian Daily “A...

Last week, the state’s Attorney-General, John Quigley, announced broad support for 163 recommendations to improve the state’s anti-discrimination laws following a Law Reform Commission of WA review of the Equal Opportunity Act. One of the key reforms is an “inherent requirement test” that will force religious schools to prove religious belief or activity is an essential requirement of the job. Australian Association of Christian Schools executive officer Vanessa Cheng said that change would make it difficult for religious schools to employ staff and preference families in enrolment who shared the beliefs of the school. “Parents who choose to enrol their...

A 10-year-old transgender girl from Chicago will already be a runway veteran when she takes to the catwalk next month at New York Fashion Week — with plans to walk in Paris next year. Noella McMaher, whose parents both identify as transgender and who has an infant sibling referred to as a “theybie,” made her debut at NYFW in February as one of several trans and non-binary models walking for the Trans Clothing Company. She was the youngest person to ever take part in the event. Noella has a lively presence on social media and what seems to be a...
