***That Oz is gaining is no secret. Once upon a time early on in the race he was down by 19. Now it’s a mere 5.The question is: why? As someone who lives in Pennsylvania and sees this race unfolding daily (if not hourly!), I know the reason for this Oz surge — two reasons, actually.The first is Fetterman’s record and beliefs.To give but one example of the first, here is a new headline from Fox News: Widow of slain Philadelphia officer takes aim at Fetterman for appointing ‘buddy’ of cop killer to state board Mumia Abu-Jamal was convicted of...

[Catholic Caucus] US Synod Preparation Admits: Roman Mass Most Important Issue On LiturgyThe US bishops released on September 20 a 16 pages Synod's synthesis of 178 diocesan submissions. Most of them called for the invalid ordination of women to "deacons" or "priests." This was considered as an "issue of justice" and not as a supplement to priest shortage.Further, US Catholics lament an alleged “marginalisation” of homosexuals with formulations like, "People noted that the Church seems to prioritise doctrine over people, rules, and regulations above lived reality [=sin].”The submissions show that “the Church is divided.” Regarding the liturgy, the "most common...

PolitiFact had the audacity to argue like President Joe Biden’s eco-extremist policies didn't really have anything to do with America’s energy inflation crisis, continuing to prove why its worthless so-called “fact-checks” belong in the trash bin. The Facebook fact-checker seethed at Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) for daring to tweet in August: “Democrats' radical green energy policies caused record gas prices. They want to fundamentally transform our economy." PolitiFact rebuked Johnson for his wrongthink and falsely stated: “Green energy policies didn’t cause record prices at gasoline pumps” and suggested Johnson said this, of course, simply because he was “locked in a...

We are coming to you today from Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. We are just going to pay a little visit to the folks in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware and see how they are doing today. Do a little street photography. A little street video.

Ultimately, the purpose of this website is educational: to chart communism's human-rights violations in a format in which its horrors can quickly and accessibly be comprehended.

A similar recommendation was issued for those aged 8 to 18 in April by the same group, the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force. Primary care practitioners already must ensure screenings are current for cervical, colon and breast cancer, as well as look out for food insecurity, domestic violence, alcohol and tobacco use, and chronic health issues. Treatment includes psychotherapy, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, medications and techniques for relaxation, mindfulness and desensitization.

The National Jewish Monthly, Volume 77, B'nai B'rith., 1962, p. 1 Review Of The Month Anti Semitism at UN Arab delegates spouted the most vicious kind of anti-Semitism ever heard in the halls of the United Nations during a debate on the Arab refugee issue in the General Assembly's special political committee. The worst statement was made by Ahmad Shukairy, of Saudi Arabia. He said, Argentina "should be saluted" because of its violently anti-Jewish youth organization, Tacuara, and added: "Tacuara has proclaimed a crusade... we propose that Tacuara be adopted by the United Nations." This was too much even for...

Russian president Vladimir Putin was expected to give a speech at 6pm London time from Moscow potentially announcing the official declaration of war in Ukraine to defend Russian-occupied territories, but kept the world waiting on Tuesday night. Russian news channel that announced the speech deleted their posts around two hours after the Russian leader was set to begin what would have been his first international announcement since the country’s invasion of Ukraine on February 25. It appeared as though the Russian leader had cancelled his speech, pushing it back to Wednesday, according to a Telegram account run by political analyst...

On Tuesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Lead,” Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) argued that we don’t need more money for border security because there’s already been increased funding for the border and that Republicans are “a big part of the problem” at the border because when they say that the border’s open “they actually are inviting more people to come to the border because they’re claiming it’s open.” After claiming that Republicans don’t want to fix the border problem because former President Trump ended foreign aid programs and made it harder for people to enter the country legally, Jayapal stated, “And...

SUSIE, short for Smart Upper Stage for Innovative Exploration, was introduced to the world at the International Astronautical Congress held in Paris from September 18 to 22. The fully reusable upper stage could eventually serve as an automated freighter and payload transporter, as well as a spacecraft for crewed missions carrying a crew of up to five astronauts. SUSIE remains a concept for now, but if realized, the spacecraft would support various European space endeavours for years to come. Europe’s private space industry has fallen a bit behind its American counterparts in terms of developing reusable vehicles. SpaceX’s Falcon 9...

It’s a recipe for disaster — and possibly the hospital. The US Food and Drug Administration is warning against a social media challenge which involves people coating their poultry in NyQuil.

[Catholic Caucus] Belgian Cardinal and Bishops Approve Liturgy for “Same-Sex Unions” Archbishop Léonard, of Brussels-Mechlin, was one of the most conservative voices of the Church in Europe. That was enough for the petty, vengeful, small little man currently occupying the throne of Peter to not only not make him a Cardinal, but accept his retirement (unusually for a major Archbishop) as soon as he reached 75. For his place, Francis named an extremist liberal, a disciple of one of the greatest perverts ever to occupy a European see (Danneels), Jozef de Kesel. And, of course, Francis created him Cardinal...

The Justice Department charged 47 defendants Tuesday for allegedly defrauding a federal program that provided food for needy children during the pandemic, describing the scheme — totaling nearly $250 million — as the largest uncovered to date targeting trillions in government aid.

by Joshua Ford | 24NewsUntil recently, much of the nation and the world was under the thumb of authoritarians who demanded Covid-19 lockdowns in a “short-term” effort to “slow the spread.” It was a lie from the start; the two weeks to supposedly flatten the curve turned into two years of hell for tens of millions of Americans.While it seems they are preparing for Pandemic Panic Theater 2.0, they are also getting set up to engage in their longer-term goal of “Climate Change Lockdowns.” That comes from a report by Jack Posobiec reacting to an article by the World Economic...

Central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) are coming fast, and you need to be prepared for them because they’ll mark a major victory in the war against cash — and against your personal privacy. You’ll see why today. As the name implies, central bank digital currencies are digital, existing exclusively in electronic form. They’re not physical at all. Central banks would control them. But it’s important to understand they’re not new currencies. They’re just digital forms of existing currencies. So the central bank digital currency of the European Central Bank will still be the euro. The central bank digital currency of...

Explanation: What's happening in the Statue of Liberty nebula? Bright stars and interesting molecules are forming and being liberated. The complex nebula resides in the star forming region called RCW 57, and besides the iconic monument, to some looks like a flying superhero or a weeping angel. By digitally removing the stars, this re-assigned color image showcases dense knots of dark interstellar dust, fields of glowing hydrogen gas ionized by these stars, and great loops of gas expelled by dying stars. A detailed study of NGC 3576, also known as NGC 3582 and NGC 3584, uncovered at least 33 massive...

Bexar County's prosecution-minded sheriff is but a pawn in a much bigger leftist game to drive Gov. Ron DeSantis from higher office. Just yesterday, Texas sheriff Javier Salazar announced that he is investigating the legality of Gov. Ron DeSantis's flying of illegal migrants to Martha's Vineyard. Salazar is a Democrat, but, like all Democrats, he insists that his probe has nothing to do with his political affiliation. Salazar said the following: Somebody saw fit to come from another state, hunt them down, prey upon them, and then take advantage of their desperate situation just for the sake of political theater,...

Russian-backed officials in several parts of Ukraine have announced plans to hold referenda on joining Russia. Ukraine has slammed the upcoming votes as fake attempt to legitimize Russia’s invasion and slammed the prospect of “sham” ballots. Russian President Vladimir Putin has called on Russian producers of military equipment to up their production and supplies to Russian troops. Putin was also set to give a major speech to the country on Tuesday — only to later postpone it until Wednesday without explanation.
