On the evening of the 2020 election, a full 3 hours and 15 minutes after the polls closed in Michigan, a white male dressed in a white shirt and black pants can be seen on drop box surveillance footage at the Heilmann Satellite Voting Center in Detroit working with a black male dressed all in black to load what appears to be thousands of absentee ballots into a minivan with Indiana license plates. The two men are seen rolling a flatbed filled with 13 postal trays used to transfer ballots in Detroit, 3 large (heavy) storage containers, and a large...

Friends, in today’s Gospel, Jesus is amazed at a Roman centurion’s faith: "I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such faith." How often the Bible compels us to meditate on the meaning of faith! We might say that the Scriptures rest upon faith, remain inspired at every turn by the spirit of faith. Faith is an attitude of trust in the presence of God. Faith is openness to what God will reveal, do, and invite. It should be obvious that, in dealing with the infinite, all-powerful God, we are never in control. One of the most fundamental...

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott had trash thrown at him and was booed by some fans at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, as he left the field with an injury Sunday night. Prescott left the game amid a flurry of boos during the game's 4th quarter due to a thumb injury, which will likely sideline him for at least six weeks, according to ESPN. Some fans at the game who were upset with the quarterback expressed their frustration by pelting him with trash. Earlier this year, fans at the stadium threw trash at referees and players at the end of...

Illustration: Aïda Amer/Axios Illustration of a beer tap dripping droplets of beer. The U.S. is experiencing a shortage of carbon dioxide and Boston beermakers are beginning to worry they won't have enough of the gas to get their products to market. Driving the news: A CO2 production hub in Jackson, Mississippi, became contaminated by an extinct volcano, which cut down on an already limited supply of the gas. The pandemic put pressure on the CO2 market and drove up prices in part due to the immense amount of dry ice (frozen carbon dioxide) needed to transport COVID-19 vaccines last...

Three children died after they were found unconscious early Monday at Brighton Boardwalk in Coney Island, New York, in a possible drowning. Officers first received a call from the concerned family relative around 1:40 am Monday, and were told that the mother may have drowned the three children, NBC News reported. Authorities later visited a local apartment complex, where they encountered a man who claimed to be the children’s father and expressed similar concerns to the other family member, the outlet continued. The mother was found on the boardwalk, barefoot and soaking wet, with some family but not her children,...

There is currently no confirmed place for former U.S. President Donald Trump to join the mourners at the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II next week in London, the White House said Monday. Only heads of state and their spouses or partners will be invited – meaning Joe Biden and his wife Jill will be among those attending the historic service in Westminster Abbey.

The gubernatorial race in New York is heating up as the Republican nominee for governor, Rep. Lee Zeldin, is only six points away from Democrat Gov. Kathy Hochul in the most recent poll from co/efficient. The poll, taken two months before the election, showed Hochul ahead by only six points. Forty-nine percent of the respondents said they would vote to elect the incumbent governor, and 43 percent said they would vote for Zeldin, who currently represents Eastern Long Island in the House. Eight percent said they were undecided. A similar number of respondents viewed each candidate favorably, but Hochul had...

A World on FireEvery day, news reporters, traders, and workers of all sorts the world over wake to do their work as they always have. Part of that requires that everyone pretend that life is normal, fixable, and more or less stable. All of this is temporary. It will come and go and really not be that bad. Strange, isn’t it? Human beings have a hard time adjusting to disaster, in their decision-making and even in their mindset. Reporters have to do their jobs as they are trained. Traders too. Everyone does. They please their bosses. They don’t sound alarms....

You can normally expect Russian state TV's flagship weekly news programme to trumpet Kremlin successes. But yesterday's edition opened with a rare admission. "On the frontlines of the special operation [in Ukraine], this has been the toughest week so far," declared sombre-looking anchor Dmitry Kiselev. "It was particularly tough along the Kharkiv front, where following an onslaught by enemy forces that outnumbered ours, [Russian] troops were forced to leave towns they had previously liberated." For "liberated", read "seized". Moscow had occupied those areas months ago, but after a lightning counter-offensive by the Ukrainian army, the Russian military has lost considerable...

President Joe Biden on Monday claimed progress on bringing inflation down, even as the cost of groceries keeps rising. “We’re seeing hopeful signs of progress on inflation as well,” Biden said, adding that “inflation eased in July.” Biden spoke about inflation during a speech at Boston’s Logan airport on Monday afternoon. He celebrated falling gas prices but did not mention the rising cost of groceries. He insisted that Americans should trust him to handle the issue of inflation, calling it his “top economic priority.” “The American people should have confidence that we’re on the right track, that we’re seeing real...

No one has to tell you about the Jan 6 protest. However, there was absolutely no chance the protest was going to change a thing whether they were able to stop the count or not. I know no one who would ever take it seriously. The big lie from the left is that somehow it would have changed the outcome of the 2020 election. It would not have and no one in their right mind would suggest otherwise. But there was another, quieter conspiracy insurrection that was far more devious and evil and it succeeded. In the end, it changed...

The world is grappling with the worst energy crisis in generations however the U.N. has warned Europe a return to fossil fuels in response to soaring prices and winter shortages must not be considered under any circumstances. Russia has reduced supplies of gas to Europe since its invasion of Ukraine, sending fuel prices soaring, while supply chain issues in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic have also hit deliveries. Despite those travails, “There is no room for backtracking in the face of the ongoing climate crisis,” deputy U.N. rights chief Nada Al Nashif told the United Nations Human Rights Council....

Chick-fil-A scrambled to explain itself after a reply to a customer with the phrase “your community” sparked allegations of racism. The social media backlash began last Friday after one user tweeted the message “grilled spicy deluxe but still noooo spicy nuggets” to the fast-food giant’s official account.

Kentucky Senator Rand Paul and former Hawaii Representative Tulsi Gabbard have been listed by Ukraine among a number of American politicians, academics and activists Kyiv claims have promoted "Russian propaganda." The list was compiled by the Ukrainian Center for Countering Disinformation, founded in 2021 by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to study the impact of Russian disinformation. The center is part of Ukraine's National Security and Defense Council. The list—which also includes retired U.S. Army Colonel Douglas Macgregor, military strategist Edward Luttwak, political scientist John Mearsheimer and journalist Glenn Greenwald—does not explain what the consequences are for those who Ukraine clearly...

Two professors and one graduate researcher at the University of Minnesota have called the Supreme Court’s ruling on Dobbs v. Jackson — which overturned the constitutional right to an abortion — a “direct assault on efforts to improve racial equity in health care.” Published in the New England Journal of Medicine on Wednesday, the article, titled “Abortion Access as a Racial Justice Issue,” argues that lawmakers and health care workers ought to treat restrictions on legal abortion as “fundamentally a racial justice issue,” the Star Tribune first reported. The two professors, Rachel Hardeman and Katy Backes Kozhimannil, are the director...

Democrat candidate for Georgia governor Stacey Abrams told a group of working-class voters at a campaign stop in Valdosta, Georgia that "those who oppose President Biden's decree cancelling a portion of students' college debt are being churlish." For those not used to hearing the word, "churlish" is defined as "being rude in a mean-spirited and surly way." "The unity that the Democratic Party is trying to bring to this country requires that each person contribute his or her fair share to the collective welfare," Abrams explained. "Those who don't have what it takes to succeed in college have a duty...

A majority of Americans are experiencing distrust in our elections in the United States according to recent polling data. What should be simple counting machines are hidden behind extravagant coding, “intellectual property” claims, and ownership by complex private equity firms.The federal government hasn’t updated their guidelines for these machines and their “security” since years before the iPhone was in existence. And now we find out that one federal agency may actually be fabricating documents to cover for their inadequacies. This should not be a partisan issue: these machines must go.The fact that the Elections Assistance Commission Commission (EAC) did not...

The right’s culture-war excesses have suddenly put Democrats on the front foot going into the midterm elections. Is an unseen army of women and young voters about to rescue the Democrats? It’s risky to predict outcomes, but it sure looks like the troops are in formation. Item: News5 Cleveland reported in late August that Ohio has seen some 90,000 new registrants since the Dobbs decision. Item: KDKA Pittsburgh reported recently that the voter registration gender gap in Pennsylvania is 12 points, three times the normal gap. More than 60 percent of these registrants are under 25.
