The Justice Department is asking Congress for a further $34 million in order to continue to investigate the January 6th Capitol siege with just weeks to go until November's Midterm elections. The funding bill would likely come before the House in December but should Republicans take control in a matter of weeks, it is unlikely such an approval for such a funding request would be granted. The criminal investigation into those who participated in the riot has been sprawling and has looked into thousands of rioters who stormed the building in support of then-President Donald Trump. So far there have...

Parents in Dearborn, Michigan, protested sexually explicit books available to children in their public schools with one father saying, “All it is, is protecting our children.” Last week, a Dearborn Public Schools board meeting was shut down due to parents protesting the same issue. Parents also voiced their malcontent with the school district at a rally against the gender theory indoctrination children were receiving at school. One parent, Hassan Shami, spoke against the materials, saying, “If you’re on Facebook, all you see is fearmongering, political rhetoric and this is book-banning, censorship, homophobic, all this is just protecting our children.” “We...

House Freedom Caucus drafts memo to future new lawmakers urging them to hold out for radical change in the way the House operates because Congress "is worse than you thought." In a pointed message to leaders and lawmakers alike, the conservative wing of House Republicans is circulating a draft guide to new lawmakers urging them to hold out for radical change in the way Congress operates if the GOP wins control in the midterm elections.

THE SAUDI-LED oil cartel OPEC+’s announcement earlier this month that it was cutting 2 million barrels of oil per day — a move that would drive up the price of oil just a month before midterm elections — rankled Democrats in Washington. They accused Riyadh of aligning itself with Russia, another powerful member of OPEC+, which would indeed profit off the move. “What Saudi Arabia did to help Putin continue to wage his despicable, vicious war against Ukraine will long be remembered by Americans,” said Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. But Saudi Arabia actually pushed to cut oil production twice...

Newsmax TV has severed ties with Lara Logan after she said on the network the global elite “dine on the blood of children” and made other bizarre statements.

The United Kingdom's defense ministry said Thursday that a Russian fighter jet malfunctioned and fired a missile near a British spy plane over the Black Sea last month. "We don't consider this a deliberate escalation by the Russians, our analysis would concur it was a malfunction," UK Defense Minister Ben Wallace told the House of Commons on Thursday. "However, it is a reminder of quite how dangerous things can be when you choose to use your fighters in the manner that the Russians have done over many periods of time." Patrols over the Black Sea have resumed with British fighter...

For months, Democrats’ polling gains, strong special-election performances and surprising leads in key Senate races have come with important caveats. Those caveats? The party that holds the presidency loses the vast majority of midterms, and the fundamentals — both President Biden’s approval rating and perceptions of the economy — still pointed to a tough 2022. What’s more, the polls have been off in recent elections (usually overestimating Democrats’ prospects when they are) — and what happens if and when Republican-oriented voters come home to candidates they might not love? It appears to be happening. And those caveats now appear in...

For nearly two years, vaccine expert and virologist Geert Vanden Bossche has been on a mission to raise awareness of why healthy children should not receive COVID-19 vaccines. Vanden Bossche, who has 30 years of experience in the vaccine industry, claims that it is primarily the unvaccinated children and adults who can generate herd immunity. “The children are our only hope still, to generate herd immunity,” Vanden Bossche told The Epoch Times. “And herd immunity means, thanks to their natural immunity, they can kill the virus, they can sterilize the virus.” It is only herd immunity that “will be able,...

The Department of Justice needs funds to continue investigating the little three-hour riot that sent most of liberal America into paralysis. Most Americans have moved on, as they should, since most have no choice. Unlike the wealthy, over-educated snobs that infest the coasts and cities, we ordinary citizens must work for a living. They also see their degraded purchasing power as their paychecks cannot keep up with the historic levels of inflation that have beset the country. And maybe the hundreds of arrests the Federal Bureau of Investigation has made in this overblown investigation into what amounted to be a...

The dollar hit the symbolic level of 150 yen (S$1.43) for the first time since 1990 on Thursday as the greenback was supported by Treasury yields trading at multi-year highs, keeping markets on high alert for intervention from Japanese authorities. Moves among other major currencies were more muted with the euro at $0.9786 (S$1.36), struggling to regain ground it lost during a dollar surge the day before, while sterling extended its declines. The fragile yen briefly weakened past 150 per dollar in early European trading for the first time since August 1990. It was last trading a little below that...
