Attorneys from the Northern Justice Project have teamed up with Alaskan Randall Kowalke to remove Kowalke’s duly elected representative, Republican David Eastman. Kowalke alleges Eastman should be removed from office and his 2022 election win stripped away because of his membership to the Oath Keepers. Rep Eastman Kowalke is a constituent of Eastman and has brought suit arguing that the Oath Keepers tried to overthrow the government on January 6. Currently, the Oath Keepers members who were charged over their participation in the gathering were not accused of or indicted for attempting to overthrow the government. Kowalke is attempting to...

We don't always agree with Keith Olbermann, but that doesn't mean we don't respect him. The dude landed some solid tail back in the day. He still does, probably, and good for him. But that's not why he's being honored as a Washington Free Beacon Man of the Year. Not exactly. We chose to recognize Olbermann for speaking his truth after years of suffering in silence, and for highlighting a very real but much-forsaken segment of the population: Battered men. We are often quick to dismiss them. We stigmatize and scorn them with mockery. That needs to change, and maybe...

WORCESTER - If someone were to mention the animal that built America, you would probably think of some sort of domestic farm animal like the horse or perhaps a cow - one a beast of burden during construction, the other a key economic livestock animal. You wouldn’t think of beavers. But that’s what they are - the animals that both literally and economically built America. “They shaped our country’s landscape and jump-started capitalism on this continent,” said Leila Philip, a professor of English at the College of the Holy Cross, who also teaches in the Environmental Studies Program, and author...

Textbooks are often deemed authoritative sources of information necessary for education. These learning materials include the latest scientific findings to reflect societal changes and show how knowledge has grown over time. They play a critical role in how educators tackle certain topics to educate their students in classroom settings. Since curricular content has been shown to influence students’ knowledge of environmental issues, it’s essential to analyze how textbooks frame and discuss the pressing issue of climate change. But, as it turns out, climate change coverage hasn’t changed drastically in science textbooks over the last 50 years, despite how much scientists...

CHICAGO (CBS) – At least two people are dead and 13 others were wounded in shootings across Chicago over the Christmas weekend. The ages of the victims range from 17 to 55. In the first shooting of the holiday weekend, a 10-year-old girl accidentally shot herself in the hand around 5:20 p.m. Friday, after finding a gun inside a home in the 6500 block of South California Avenue. The girl was taken to Holy Cross Hospital in good condition. Less than a half hour later, a 48-year-old man suffered an accidental self-inflicted gunshot wound to the hand in the 6800...

With the last elections finally decided and the last fundraising reports for 2022 already being compiled, we have well and truly entered the 2024 presidential cycle. The hottest question right now is whom the Republicans will nominate. In recent months, the likelihood that it will not be Donald Trump has increased significantly, although it may still be greater than 50%. There is a misconception among many Republican Trump supporters, who naively would like to have their cake and eat it too. They want to see Trump given the nomination in 2024, but they don't want to see an end to...

(Daily readings from the USCCB)“When they hand you over, do not worry about how you are to speak or what you are to say. You will be given at that moment what you are to say. For it will not be you who speak but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.” Matthew 10:19–20These words of our Lord came to fruition in the life of Saint Stephen, the Church’s first martyr. Saint Stephen was martyred within a couple of years after Jesus’ ascension into Heaven. He was one of seven deacons who the Apostles appointed to assist them in...

Twas the Night Before Snowfall Twas the Night Before Snowfall When all through the State A Gov'nr called "Hochul" Would determine our Fate She bemoaned "Climate Change" For the snowfall it seems And announced a shutdown Of the state as she beamed A once in a lifetime event she pronounced Close down the thruway! All Christmas plans trounced A need to raise taxes There soon will be To stop the bad weather For just a "small fee."

Cpl. Ray Hamilton (Image courtesy of Okaloosa County Sheriff's Office) A sheriff’s deputy in Florida was shot and killed while responding to a domestic violence call on Christmas Eve, according to authorities. Cpl. Ray Hamilton, a five-year veteran and member of the Okaloosa County Sherriff’s Office (OCSO) Special Response Team, succumbed to his injury at a hospital Saturday afternoon following a standoff at a home in Fort Walton Beach, per news releases from OCSO. The suspect in the fatal shooting, 43-year-old Timothy Price-Williams, was detained and faces a charge of premeditated murder. OCSO had obtained a warrant for Price-Williams on...

This is a video of Zelensky before he became President. He married a Christian girl and his children were baptized Christians. He suddenly became a Jew when soliciting money from Israel. Listen to his jokes. It is funny to rob the property of both Russian and Jews. The systemic ethnic hatred in Ukraine will prevent any peace. They live for the day of total annihilation of every Russian in Ukraine and in Russia. So as we head into Christmas, be careful who you think is such a hero. This is no different from what drove the Nazis to ethnic cleansing....

Russia announced yesterday that it will increase its military strength from 1 million to 1.5 million. The Western Press keeps putting out the propaganda that that this is all because Russia has lost momentum and many soldiers in Ukraine. I reported before that sources from Ukraine, not Russia, put the death toll at over 100,000 Ukrainian soldiers. That was also in the draft speech of the head of the EU, but it was removed to keep up the image that Ukraine is winning. What is not being said here is that Poland has been instructed by the US to increase...

..... "This government that Bibi and the Smotrichim are establishing is advancing institutionalized racism and taking us from the Zionist dream of Ben Gurion to the racist dream of Smotrich - who is being enabled by a man under criminal indictment who wants to escape justice," Michaeli accused. "You are taking the name of Zionism in vain," she continued, adding, "And you should be the first to know that it is forbidden to take that name in vain. This isn't Zionism - it's racism."

My short answer to the question — Yes! I received an interesting response to my request for opinions on what constitutes the “Endgame” in Ukraine from a man named Matt. Here is his analysis: The end game is to diminish/weaken Russia. The US has determined they cannot fight and win a war against both China and Russia. The US and it’s allies have sought to pick off the weaker of the two. The longer the US bleeds out Russia, via Ukraine, the better. Not all NATO (think Germany) were onboard with the plan. Hence, NATO starts talks with Ukraine about...

After causing an uproar the first time around, comedian and TV host Whoopi Goldberg again claimed the Holocaust was not racial in nature but was an example of “white on white” violence, because both Nazis and Jews are white people. Goldberg was suspended from her job co-hosting “The View” for two weeks earlier this year over similar remarks during one episode.

The Environmental Protection Agency finalized a rule Tuesday that will impose stricter emissions standards on new heavy-duty vehicles, a regulation that will significantly raise operating costs for truckers, experts and industry representatives told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “The costs associated with this are also a concern because these are costs that not only the industry will bear … prices will go up for everybody,” Texas Trucking Association President John Esparza told the DCNF. “It’s an overreach that is indicative of this administration’s tendency to set aside balance to achieve the goals of activists that they are politically aligned with,”...

(ATTN: UPDATES with more details in paras 9, 13) SEOUL/HOENGSEONG, Dec. 26 (Yonhap) -- Five North Korean drones intruded across the inter-Korean border with one of them having flown over northern Seoul on Monday, officials here said, prompting South Korea to send its own unmanned vehicles into the North in a "corresponding" step. The South's military detected the unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in border areas of Gyeonggi Province from 10:25 a.m., according to the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS). The UAVs were 2 meters wide or smaller. The vehicles flew across the Military Demarcation Line separating the two Koreas, and...

We have a very serious problem. Former Chancellor Merkel has openly stated that there was NEVER any intention to carry out the Minsk Agreement and that not only condemned the people of the Donbas to war, loss of their religion, and the tyranny of Kiev, but they were using them for bait to deliberately force Putin to invade to start a war with Russia. Congressman Adam Kinzinger just came out and said that NATO could destroy Russia in three days. The real danger here is that Merkel, and also the former president of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko, have both publicly stated...

NATIONAL CANDY CANE DAY National Candy Cane Day on December 26th gives candy lovers a day to celebrate the red and white striped candies found abundantly during the holidays. #NationalCandyCaneDay In 1844, a recipe for a straight peppermint candy stick, which was white with colored stripes, was published. However, some stories tell of all-white candy sticks in much earlier times. Folklore tells of the origin of the candy cane, yet no documented proof of its real beginning. Literature begins mentioning the candy cane in 1866, and it was first known to be mentioned in connection with Christmas in 1874. As...

THE TWITTER FILES: HOW TWITTER RIGGED THE COVID DEBATE – By censoring info that was true but inconvenient to U.S. govt. policy – By discrediting doctors and other experts who disagreed – By suppressing ordinary users, including some sharing the CDC’s *own data*
