Five-year Fight To Expose Child Abuse At A "Christian" Boot Camp In October 2011, a concerned mother called Capt. Charles Kennedy of Prichard, Alabama, concerned about her son enrolled at Restoration Youth Academy, a Christian "Youth Treatment Facility." Shocked at what he discovered, Kennedy launched a 5-year struggle to expose abuse and torture suffered by students at the hands of instructors. Even after retiring, Kennedy campaigned for criminal charges and closure of Restoration Youth Academy, and the arrest of its owner and instructor William Knott. He appealed to the local Mobile County District Attorney, the Alabama Department of Human Resources,...

“Fauci’s resignation should not prevent a full-throated investigation into the origins of the pandemic. He must be required to testify under oath regarding any discussions he participated in concerning the Wuhan lab leak. His policies destroyed lives,” wrote Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) in response to Musk’s post. Fauci is preparing to step down from his government roles at the end of the year and has long said he is not concerned about Republicans’ increasing calls to investigate him over the U.S. handling of the pandemic. “I have nothing to hide at all, despite the accusations that I’m hiding something. I...

If this suicide is not prevented, at least within the non-Western world, then the whole planet will commit suicide, Victor Bout said MOSCOW, December 11./TASS.The developments in the West look like a suicide of civilization, Victor Bout said in an interview with RT on Saturday. "What is happening in the West is simply the suicide of civilization. And if this suicide is not prevented, at least within the non-Western world, within the world not controlled by the Anglo-Saxons, then the whole planet will commit suicide. And it may be happening in all areas, with drugs and LGBT+ among them," he...

Twitter CEO Elon Musk on Sunday called to prosecute Anthony Fauci, the chief medical adviser to President Biden who has led the U.S. response to the COVID-19 pandemic since it started during the Trump administration, and drew swift backlash for his comment. “My pronouns are Prosecute/Fauci,” Musk said on Twitter. He later shared a meme edited to show Fauci telling Biden, “Just one more lockdown, my king.” Lawmakers and other officials jumped to Fauci’s defense online. “I’m a big fan of Dr. Fauci and how he’s calmly guided our country through crisis. Re Musk tweet? Courting vaccine-deniers doesn’t seem like...

The Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security partnered with the World Health Organization and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to conduct “Catastrophic Contagion,” an exercise to simulate a global pandemic that is deadlier than the coronovirus and especially dangerous for children. Bill Gates was in attendance. The group conducted Catastrophic Contagion in Brussels, Belgium on October 23, 2022. During the simulation, the World Health Organization’s health advisory board addressed a fictional “Severe Epidemic Enterovirus Respiratory Syndrome” pandemic that originates in Brazil and disseminates across the globe. he exercise simulated a series of WHO emergency health advisory board meetings addressing...

"There are left-wing zealots with at least a modicum of ability to stop themselves from publically going off the really deep end, and then there’s former MSNBC hack Keith Olbermann who fails to realize — or give a damn about —how his ridiculous anger and bitterness is perceived by a majority of rational Americans."

When someone calls you a bald face liar. What type of lie is that? Is it a war accusation, Scruggs off, ignore … Imagine it was your wife.

New York Times television critic James Poniewozik declared in his end of the year review that the January 6 Committee hearings were the "most important TV of the year." "It’s no insult to call this investigation, above, into the attack on democracy a TV show; that was its power and its accomplishment," Poniewozik wrote. "Deploying deft editing, story structure, graphics, suspense, social media virality and, yes, a touch of showmanship, the hearings made a public service into the show of the summer and the most important TV of the year." Earlier this year, Poniewozik compared the hearings to a true-crime...

On December 4th, Secretary of State Antony Blinken stopped by J Street’s annual conference being held at a D.C. hotel owned by a Spanish airline and famous for its haunted ‘ghost suite’. But the real ghosts were those of the murdered Jews whose lives had been taken by the pro-terrorist policies that Blinken and the anti-Israel group he was celebrating had imposed on Israel. Blinken, who had served as the vice chair of the board of directors for Human Rights First, an anti-Israel group, before his current appointment boasted of the $890 million in taxpayer money directed to the “Palestinians”....

About a year ago, the nation was on the verge of another lockdown when a tidal wave of Omicron infections prompted those who use masks alone... in their car... with their windows down, to hyperventilate that covid is about to kill several million more Americans, and anyone who suggested that this was nothing more than the flu was promptly suspended from twitter most likely by this guy, er gal: Melissa Ingle.Former content moderator employee at Twitter speaks out. Do you believe this person enforced twitter ToS fairly and equally for all persons?pic.twitter.com/3qverDTdPK — John Curtis  (@Johnmcurtis) November 23, 2022......

This is a question I’ve been mulling ever since the Twitter Files started dropping, though I’m not quite as sure about it now as was previously. (More on that in a moment.) The New York Post picked up on something that many of us noticed during Bari Weiss’ tweetstorm that delivered the second episode of the ongoing series. As you may recall, former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey was called in to provide testimony before Congress in 2018 and he was asked at least three times whether or not Twitter was shadow-banning or censoring Republicans and conservatives on his platform. Each...

No one can say that some of us didn’t sound the alarm on Alexander Vindman. Even as he was being lauded as a respectable public servant by many Republicans during Donald Trump’s first impeachment, contributors here at RedState were calling the puffy star witness what he really was and remains, which is a deranged, narcissistic authoritarian.His delusions of grandeur have only increased in intensity over the years, and Vindman has garnered a sizable social media following (perhaps mostly populated with bots). He sees himself as a modern-day George Washington. A freedom fighter, valiantly strategizing on behalf of Ukraine, his home...

The reactions to the lopsided Brittney Griner/Viktor Bout swap are still coming in.Here’s Derek Maltz, former DEA Special Operations Director, talking with Fox News, describing the effort they made to put Bout in jail, what a danger he was to the world, and that he was convicted on serious terrorism charges. He notes that even the Obama administration got how serious this was and Joe Biden was the Vice President at the time, so he had to know what a danger Bout was to the world. “Putin has just established a new tool,” Maltz said, and others will “take advantage...

Is the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) already committing a Tiananmen 2.0 massacre against protestors? We don’t have any definite proof of killings, and we may never know how many Chinese citizens have been arrested and persecuted, but since the CCP is the greatest mass murderer of all time, any violent tactics it uses to quash the anti-regime and anti-COVID-19 lockdown protests in China would hardly be surprising. Police violence and arrests are certainly escalating. But there are two former residents of China who believe the evidence indicates a Tiananmen 2.0 is already happening “behind closed doors”: YouTubers Matt Tye and...

“Fair, Balanced and Unafraid” is now a distant memory. Whatever the cause, considering the Fox News Channel to be a name to trust is a complete waste of time. The fix is in. Fox News reports on what they are told, not what is important for the country. This includes the most popular shows in the evening, Jesse Waters, Tucker Carlson, Shawn Hannity, and Laura Ingraham. All four still appear to be fighting for our country, but only on approved stories. This has been going on for quite some time, but the absolute proof is that — based on what...

Those who support the everything-is-great narrative have responded to the unimpressive employed-workers numbers by dismissing them as a result of workers retiring and other demographic changes. These explanations, however, require that we ignore the fact that millions of men age 25-54—that is, men of working age—have removed themselves from the workforce. When so many men—men who would have been in the workforce 20 or 30 years ago—aren't even trying to get a job, this lowers the unemployment rate and makes total jobs numbers look more impressive. What does this mean in total numbers of prime-age males? If we look at...

On Friday, a German molecular biologist by trade unveiled a new concept for the world’s first artificial womb facility, EctoLife, which could incubate up to 30,000 babies a year. “My new concept will be unveiled early December, something that I have been working on for a while,” said Hashem Al-Ghaili in November. “The new concept relies on over 50 years of groundbreaking scientific research.”
