Imagine if leaders representing nearly half the world's population were to meet, and it didn't make the nightly news. Very little has been reported in the Western Press about the latest meeting of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, which met this week. Consider the Shanghai Cooperation Organization to be the NATO of Asia. For 23 years, the SCO has brought together leaders from the other side of the world to provide economic and political cooperation and support. Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping were there, respectfully representing Russia and China. Also attending were leaders from India, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan. Also in...

Globalism is working toward a one world order with one over-arching government that rules over individual nations. Eventually, globalism leads to each person being a citizen of the world, instead of citizens of their individual nations. The founders of the United Nations envisioned one world government. Member nations are obligated to the UN and to each other. The laws and regulations imposed by the UN override the laws of individual countries. You may be saying, “So what? Why does this matter?” I will take just a moment to explain why this most definitely matters. Anything is managed best at the...

NBPA executive director Tamika Tremaglio, saying she was speaking on behalf of NBA players, on Friday called for a lifetime ban of Phoenix Suns majority owner Robert Sarver, who was given a one-year suspension by the league for racist and misogynist remarks.

Vance for Ohio’s open U.S. Senate seat, reportedly has an “ongoing problem” with law enforcement, according to the head of the Buckeye States’ top police union.

Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s (R) Department of Education has replaced the Democrat-passed school transgender policy with one based on parents’ rights. While the prior policies, passed under former Gov. Ralph Northam (D), allowed school districts to keep a student’s professed transgender identity secret from parents as well as refer to that student by “preferred pronouns” and a different name — aspects of beginning a “social transition” — the Youngkin administration’s new policies require written parental consent for a school to start such a process.

Branch took the keys from her waistband and entered her car as the woman began to scream, getting the employee’s...

The Sacramento area is gearing up for an unusual amount of rainfall for this time of year. Downtown Sacramento through the Sacramento Valley could see up to two inches of rain between Saturday and Wednesday, according to the National Weather Service. Thunderstorms will likely be paired with rain showers, creating longer commute times and slick roads. “If you compare it to rain in February or January or the height of winter,” said meteorologist Cory Mueller with the National Weather Service “it would be pretty standard.” “But for September, it’s quite unusual to see that amount of rain.” The culprit: the...

Chinese President Xi Jinping called Friday on members of a central Asian regional grouping, which includes Russia and Iran, to work together to prevent “external forces” from promoting what he called "color revolutions" — popular, pro-democracy uprisings in their countries. Xi made the comments in Uzbekistan on the second day of a summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), a regional security group led by China and Russia. In his speech, Xi said members should support efforts each country has made to safeguard its own security and development interests and work to prevent outsiders from instigating a color revolution. Xi...

Arkansas GOP Gubernatorial candidate Sarah Huckabee Sanders revealed she had cancer and that it had been successfully removed in a statement today. Sanders’s statement reads: “During a check-up earlier this month, my doctor ordered a biopsy on an area of concern in my neck and the test revealed that I had thyroid cancer.

I want to thank the Arkansas doctors and nurses for their world-class care, as well as my family and friends for their love,...

Now residents demand immigrants be removed to somewhere else Amid the new war that has broken out just this week over Joe Biden's decision when he took office to trash all of President Trump's border security measures like Remain-in-Mexico and the border wall construction, an interesting detail has emerged. Martha's Vineyard, that expensive locale where houses cost upward of a million dollars and residents are wealthy enough to fund them, reacted with demands that 50 illegal aliens delivered to that location by a program set up by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis to have other parts of the U.S. share the...

California paid 45% less for the same COVID-19 tests that New York state bought from a company tied to $300,000 in campaign donations to Gov. Kathy Hochul — and watchdogs are calling for answers. “The more we know the worse it looks,” John Kaehny, executive director of Reinvent Albany, said while renewing his call for an investigation into the $637 million in state business paid to the New Jersey-based Digital Gadgets. “This is a big deal. There is a lot of money and it looks really, really bad and there is a dark cloud of pay-to-play hanging over this –...
