Porter berated former staffer over text message for catching COVID-19 Embattled Rep. Katie Porter, D-Calif., responded to allegations of running a toxic workplace amid her tumultuous Senate run kickoff as she tries to soften her image. Porter’s Senate campaign began on Tuesday as the California Democrat faces down accusations from former staffers of making racist remarks and fomenting a toxic work environment. In just her first week in the fray, the California congresswoman responded to the allegations of a toxic work environment during an interview Thursday, where she said she is "willing to expect people to work hard." Embattled Rep....

The lead author of peer-reviewed research re-analysing Pfizer and Moderna mRNA “vaccine” trials, Joseph Fraiman, called for an immediate suspension of covid injections due to serious harms. “This is huge,” Dr. Aseem Malhotra tweeted. Fraiman, an emergency physician and a clinical scientist based in Louisiana, USA, has said that the covid mRNA injections can increase serious adverse events, including sudden cardiac arrests. Fraiman was the lead author of a study ‘Serious adverse events of special interest following mRNA COVID-19 vaccination in randomized trials in adults’ published in August 2022. “These results raise concerns that mRNA vaccines are associated with more...

A former Joe Biden aide who was questioned by federal investigators as part of the government’s investigation into stolen classified documents improperly stored at Biden’s private office and garage. Recall, Hunter Biden suggested to his father he hire Kathy Chung to be his assistant. Joe Biden hired Hunter’s Rosemont Seneca employee Anne Marie Person, 34, to be one of his private VP staffers. Kathy Chung was excited Joe Biden hired Anne Marie Person in emails previously released from Hunter Biden’s laptop. "I am very excited to have Anne Marie Person working here with me in the West Wing!! I think...

Email today from Senator Jim Risch, R-ID Have you heard? The Biden administration is looking at banning gas stoves. Gas stoves, which many Idahoans use every day to feed their families. Gas stoves, which restaurants and chefs choose to operate their business. Gas stoves, which save households up to 30% or $350 on utility bills each year. Why is this a priority? Simply put, the Biden administration is considering whether the government should prevent the purchase of new gas stoves and even if Americans' gas stoves should be taken away. Obviously, this isn’t the first time the Biden Administration has...

We hate to say it, but another day, another mysterious and unexpected death of a seemingly normal collegiate athlete. As we wrote yesterday, either there is a new focus in media on reporting about the untimely deaths of athletes and young adults, or something very odd appears to be taking place across the country. Jack Madison, a sophomore on the Colorado College men’s tennis team, passed away in his sleep on January 2nd, a new report from the Gazette, published yesterday, confirms. Colorado College vice president and director of athletics Lesley Irvine commented: “We are devastated by the tragic passing...

It is a dangerous time for AMs. Electric rates are at their highest point in decades and advertising is soft in some markets as clients take a wait-and-see approach to the 2023 economy where talk of a potential recession continues. The result is Townsquare Media has powered down a trio of its AM stations.“Due to economic conditions in the market, the licensee was forced to take the station off the air temporarily,” Townsquare says in each of its filings with the FCC. It is not, however, turning in the license, leaving the door open to be back on the air...

"But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him. "And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming. "If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of him." Revelation, Chapter 6 1 And I...

The United States is now publicly discussing the "containment" of China with its Asia-Pacific vassals. On January 8, the Financial Times reported that the supreme US Marine Corps commander for Japan gave very direct statements regarding Pentagon's China strategy. Lieutenant General James Bierman thinks there are "numerous parallels" between Ukraine and Taiwan and admits the US is preparing what he dubbed "a counter-China theater" by strengthening coordination with its regional satellite states. "The US and Japanese armed forces are rapidly integrating their command structure and scaling up combined operations as Washington DC and its Asian allies prepare for a possible...

To seize further control of people’s lives, Globalists are pushing the false idea that these cities will “save the planet” and help all of humanity. Fifteen-minute cities are popping up everywhere, and the World Economic Forum is wildly enthusiastic about them. Last year it was announced that Paris, France, would become a 15-minute city, and now the British city of Oxford is next. However, outraged Brits are fighting back. As reported previously at RAIR Foundation USA, the city council has announced that it will divide Oxford into 15-minute neighborhoods or small 15-minute towns billed as “greener, cleaner and safer.” To...

A larger number of U.S. consumers are having a tough time paying off credit card dues every month in an environment of elevated inflation, with those making lower income less likely to clear their debts while accruing greater interest payments. Roughly 46 percent of credit card holders do not pay off their dues in full each month, according to data from Bankrate in December. This is up from 39 percent a year back. Roughly 43 percent of those with credit card debt are not aware of the interest rates charged on their cards. “People may not be fully aware of...

For my more seasoned readers, let's say you could travel back in time and revisit a moment in your life. You're not going back to change the past, but simply to sit as a silent guest and listen in on a conversation you might have had back then. Let's say you decide to go back to the year 1993 when you and a friend are in a restaurant having lunch. At some point the conversation steers into the signs of the times and when you think the Lord will return. Your friend might mention the fact that the year 1993...

The self-described “Three Amigos,” Justin Trudeau, Joe Biden, and Lopez Obrador agreed to The Declaration of North America. It is very disturbing. Their primary goal is Marxist diversity, equity, and inclusion. There are six pillars: 1) diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI); 2) climate change and the environment; 3) competitiveness; 4) migration and development; 5) health; and 6) regional security. Border security was not even on the agenda, but DEI was number one. We had our FAA NOTAM system crash yesterday and all our enemies know it. We do not have any backup for our satellites, our Global Positioning System, should...

"The number one mission of this Congress has to be to stop Biden's spending binge - a faceoff between Speaker McCarthy and Joe Biden. That's the moment Republicans are going to have to stand firm and say 'NO.'"

Pfizer's bivalent Covid booster could increase the risk of a stroke in recipients over age 65, officials report. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) officials cited vaccine safety database data that showed an increased risk of ischemic stroke in the elderly within three weeks of getting the shot. An ischemic stroke, also known as brain ischemia, is caused by blockages in arteries that carry blood to the brain. The safety concern requires more investigation and 'the totality of the data currently suggests that it is very unlikely that the signal … represents a true clinical risk', CDC wrote in...

Students sometimes pull an all-nighter to prepare for an exam. However, research has shown that sleep deprivation is bad for your memory. Now, neuroscientist Robbert Havekes discovered that what you learn while being sleep deprived is not necessarily lost, it is just difficult to recall. Together with his team, he has found a way to make this "hidden knowledge" accessible again days after studying while sleep-deprived using optogenetic approaches, and the human-approved asthma drug roflumilast. His team examined whether amnesia as a result of sleep deprivation was a direct result of information loss, or merely caused by difficulties retrieving information....

About 100 Ukrainian troops will head to Oklahoma's Fort Sill as soon as next week to begin training on the Patriot missile defense system, the Pentagon announced Tuesday.Ukraine has long sought the Patriot surface-to-air guided missile defense system because it can target aircraft, cruise missiles and shorter-range ballistic missiles. During his late December visit to the U.S., Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the battery would make a significant difference in bolstering Kyiv's defenses against Russia's invasion.

I have little idea where this post is going to go. I guess I’m partly writing it as a personal catharsis, and so I advise you - I’m not feeling warm and fuzzy. I’m not a gambler, but if you asked me to pick up the dice and roll ‘em, I’m going to tell you America is done. No single issue prompts me to say that, but rather many of them. America is hurtling down a steep one-way road with no U-Turn on the map. It is experiencing a comprehensive and catastrophic moral collapse. Read Romans 1:18-32. It’s basically today’s...

It is estimated that 2 billion people globally suffer from the disease today. But vitamin D can help the immune system fight tuberculosis, a new study concludes. "We have shown that vitamin D improves the immune system's ability to fight the tuberculosis bacterium, Mycobacterium tuberculosis," says Associate Professor Martin Kongsbak-Wismann. Today, tuberculosis is treated with antibiotics, but in the past, many tuberculosis patients were admitted to sanatoriums and made to lie out in the sun. This caused their vitamin D levels to rise. Therefore, researchers have long suspected that vitamin D can help fight tuberculosis. The study showed that the...
