The Guardian Angels pounced on a subway rider who was assaulting an elderly woman in the Bronx on Saturday, according to Curtis Sliwa, the group’s founder. The incident happened about noon on a D train at 167th Street, when three Guardian Angels saw a man and woman yelling at the elderly straphanger, Sliwa said. “The man reaches out and smacks her multiple times,” he said. “The Guardian Angels, three of them, jump the guy.” NYPD officers, who were at the station, arrested the man, but he was released on a desk appearance ticket, Sliwa said. The same trio of Guardian...

Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, who will be the House Democratic leader in the next Congress, said Sunday it’s “unfortunate” that Republicans have targeted him as an election denier after he previously suggested that former President Donald Trump was “illegitimate.” The New York Democrat was pressed about comments made by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, Kentucky Republican, equating Mr. Jeffries’ past remarks to the ex-president’s election claims amid assertions by Democrats about Russian interference in the 2016 election. “My view of the situation has been pretty clear,” Mr. Jeffries said on ABC’s “This Week.” “I supported the certification of Donald Trump’s election....

Does anybody notice that the LameStreamMedia is REFUSING to report about, even a simple mention, the biggest Election Integrity and Interference Scandal in our Country's History. Watch closely, you will see barely a mention. We have a CORRUPT MEDIA the likes of which has never been seen before, but fear not, we will MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

JAKARTA, Indonesia — Indonesia's highest volcano on its most densely populated island released searing gas clouds and rivers of lava Sunday in its latest eruption. Monsoon rains eroded and finally collapsed the lava dome atop 3,676-meter (12,060-foot) Mount Semeru, causing the eruption, according to National Disaster Management Agency spokesperson Abdul Muhari. Several villages were blanketed with falling ash, blocking out the sun, but no casualties have been reported. Several hundred residents, their faces smeared with volcanic dust and rain, fled to temporary shelters or left for other safe areas. Thick columns of ash were blasted more than 1,500 meters (nearly...

Univision’s relentless promotion of the green agenda via in-show infomercial for the Chevy Bolt spontaneously combusted when Despierta America’s Chef Yisus inadvertently wrote the electric vehicle off as a “chick car” by saying it was “maybe not for me”, but definitely for his wife! “You sold it to me, brother, you sold it to me. Well, maybe not for me, but for my wife, for sure”, Yisus quipped at Univision's car guru, Jaime Gabaldoni, after three-and-a-half minutes of hard-sell pitches for the vehicle's "unique" features.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommended prohibiting the operators of Southwestern Alaska’s Pebble Mine from disposing of waste material in the nearby Bristol Bay, a regulation that would prevent the mine from opening. However, the mine could generate billions in revenue by producing minerals that are crucial in supporting the Biden administration’s “clean energy transition.” The EPA said Pebble Mine’s potential waste discharges would threaten nearby sockeye salmon fisheries by polluting the water and preventing the fish from spawning and reproducing, according to an agency proposal released Thursday. Despite this, the mine would extract about 1.5 billion tons of copper,...

Pictured on today’s front page are soldiers from the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, commanded by Col. Robert F. Sink. They just completed a 115-mile forced march from Camp Toccoa to Atlanta, a record “unparalleled in continental American history,” according to Sink (who also marched). 2nd Lt. Richard Winters of Company E, 2nd Battalion (better known as “Easy” Company, portrayed on the HBO mini-series “Band of Brothers”) is among the men, having graduated from Officer Candidate School in July. Col. Sink will jump with his men at Normandy and Operation MARKET GARDEN and leads them during the Battle of the Bulge....

This list only includes destroyed vehicles and equipment of which photo or videographic evidence is available. Therefore, the amount of equipment destroyed is significantly higher than recorded here. Small arms, ATGMs, MANPADS, loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles, trailers and derelict equipment are not included in this list. All possible effort has gone into avoiding duplicate entries and discerning the status of equipment between captured or abandoned. Many of the entries listed as 'abandoned' will likely end up captured or destroyed. Similarly, some of the captured equipment might be destroyed if it can't be recovered. When the...

Official figures provided by 28 European countries confirm there have been tens of thousands more excess deaths in 2022 across Europe than in 2020 at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, as well as in 2021 when a huge swathe of deaths occurred following the emergency use authorisation of the Covid-19 injections. The continent has also suffered 193,000 extra excess deaths than was normally recorded prior to the alleged emergence of Covid-19. Unfortunately, analysis shows that the increase in 2022 is due to so many children and young adults now dying on a weekly basis.

Moore County Sheriff Ronnie Fields said Saturday that the outage was being investigated as a "criminal occurrence." The vandalism appeared to be intentional, but the motive is unknown at this time. A massive power outage is being reported in Moore County. A Duke Energy outage map Saturday evening showed 37,998 customers without power in Moore County; The Randolph Electric Membership Corporation also reported nearly 3,000 customers without power in the southern part of the county. As of Sunday at 8 a.m. 38,890 people are without power, according to a Duke Energy outage map. WRAL viewers began calling in to report...

Former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that former President Donald Trump should not be underestimated because he has “evil charisma.” PBS host Yamiche Alcindor said, “These extreme MAGA people that are still supporting him, that’s something to the fact he can still win the nomination. We’ve been here before. this feels familiar to me. We were here with the Access Hollywood tape, when people thought they didn’t want Donald Trump to be the nominee. After January 6th, we saw people leaving the White House in droves, and then everyone turn around at...

More than 12.7 billion doses of Covid-19 injections have been administered since it became available nearly two years ago. Some have received one or two doses, while others have had multiple doses. Yet many don’t know what these injections actually contain. Official sources provide ingredient lists. For example, vials from Moderna and BioNTech/Pfizer famously contain mRNA. While, Oxford/AstraZeneca and Johnson and Johnson’s (Janssen’s) injections don’t contain mRNA but instead feature an adenovirus expressing the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. Several items on the list of these publicly disclosed ingredients, such as mRNA and SM-102, come with controversy. Public health officials, regulators, and...

Volodymyr Zelensky has been branded a "small demon" in a bizarre Russian TV debate over the Ukrainian president's resistance to Vladimir Putin's geopolitical ambitions in the region. One pundit called on the Russian Orthodox Church to officially name the Ukrainian leader to be the "Antichrist" during the heated discussions. He told Russia1: "We need to be very specific as to what we emphasize and not be shy about it. 'I believe that the Orthodox church should proclaim that Zelensky is officially the coming of the Antichrist.

For the first time in nearly three years, Jane Fonda returned to Washington, D.C., to rally, sounding the alarm on the growing climate crisis. The Academy Award-winning actress launched “Fire Drill Fridays” in October 2019 as a weekly rally in the nation’s capital. The goal was to demand action from the nation’s leaders to address climate change. But due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the movement transitioned online, amassing more than 11 million views across social media platforms. Since the start of the protests, other climate change activists and celebrities have joined Fonda. That was no different on Friday when actress...

Past studies have used the gene-editing technology CRISPR to remove genes from immune system cells to make them better at fighting cancer. Now, PACT Pharma and UCLA have used CRISPR to remove and add genes to these cells to help them recognize a patient’s specific tumor cells. “It is probably the most complicated therapy ever attempted in the clinic,” study co-author Antoni Ribas told Nature. “We’re trying to make an army out of a patient’s own T cells.” T cells are our immune systems’ built-in defense against cancer. Natural cancer killers: Our bodies are made up of trillions of cells....

The phrase “Stupid is as stupid does” became famous in 1994 with a movie called Forrest Gump. (Note: I do not like the word “stupid.” It sounds unchristian, but readers will understand it better than “A reprobate mind is as a reprobate mind does.”) Most Bible prophecy teachers are aware that the World Health Organization (WHO) is drafting an International Pandemic Treaty and the WHO is asking for the Director-General to be empowered to declare public health emergencies and require global obedience to WHO policies. Giving control of the healthcare of everyone on earth to one person will put all...

It is certainly not a “threat to democracy” when people challenge elections, especially when many state election officials intentionally violate their own state laws. Speaking of which…. Arizona law, A.R.S. § 38.503 dictates that: Any public officer or employee who has… a substantial interest in any decision of a public agency… shall refrain from participating in any manner as an officer or employee in such decision. Well what’s a “public agency”? Well, per A.R.S.§ 38.502, a public agency is, among other things, “[an] administrative body of the state” — and whether intentionally or not, A.R.S. § 38.510 requires that anyone...

I'm looking for FReepers' choice of best rendition of "Silver Bells" (assuming one exists) for my Christmas playlist. We can strike off the list those versions covered by: Dean Martin (pleh!) Billie Eilish (awful, and sung with a perpetually stupid look on her face) Ol' Bing

We are truly living in Strange Days under Joe Biden. And with Elon Musk’s release of Twitter’s suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop scandal, they call Joe Biden the Sleaze. As The Federal Reserve tries to crush Bidenflation, we are seeing Fed Remittances to the US Treasury soaring (white line). At the same time, we see the Biden Administration draining the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (orange dashed line). And as The Fed tightens, M2 Money growth crashes (green line). And with tech layoffs, I predict that 2023 job growth will be pretty bad. As I have discussed before, I am a...

Presumed incoming prime-minister Benjamin Netanyahu says in an interview with a US television network that he will not allow any harm to come to LGBT rights in Israel. "I just won't accept any of that. It's not something I'm saying now--I have a record now and a record in general of having two hands on the wheel," Netanyahu says during the NBC show "Meet The Press," noting that "I ultimately decide policy." "I'm going to safeguard Israeli democracy, I'm going to bring peace, categorically...and I'm going to stop Iran. That's what I'm coming back for...
