The investigation began two weeks ago after a whistleblower made “shocking allegations” about gender-transitioning practices at The Washington University Transgender Center at St. Louis Children’s Hospital, Attorney General Andrew Bailey said in a news release.... Bailey said he kept the probe under wraps until Feb. 9, when whistleblower Jamie Reed went public with some of her accusations in an article entitled, “I Thought I Was Saving Trans Kids. Now I’m Blowing the Whistle.” She is calling for a national halt to the procedures. As The Epoch Times reported earlier, after reading Reed’s “sickening account,” U.S. Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) announced...

NATIONAL CREAM CHEESE BROWNIE DAY On February 10, National Cream Cheese Brownie Day shines a spotlight on an irresistible dessert bar. Combining chocolate and cream cheese has long been a favorite in the bakery. When it’s added to a brownie recipe the results are spectacular. #CreamCheeseBrownieDay The brownie has been around since the 1800s but was first documented in 1906 in the cookbook The Boston Cooking School Cook Book. There are hundreds of cream cheese brownie recipes. However, we also enjoy them cut up into parfaits or mixed into ice cream. Add a dollop of whipped cream, berries or a...

This one is timely now for US history: "No members of Congress shall be seated, nor any Electoral College electors be counted, from any state that does not have: a. photograph identification requirement to vote; b. elections in person, and on the first Tuesday in November, excepting absentee provisions for the invalid, military, or overseas voters; c. paper ballots, counted by hand; d. vote count open to observation by the public, and by representatives of the candidates on the ballot."

The CDC has officially taken the recommendation of its vaccine panel and added a triple dose of the COVID shot to its list of recommended vaccinations for American kids, toddlers, and babies - a list used by many public school systems to determine which shots a child must have in order to start school. Per the updated guidelines, healthy kids 6 months old and up should receive a two doses of either the Moderna or Pfizer-BioNTech monovalent COVID-19 vaccine followed by a bivalent vaccine or booster. While the agency’s list of recommended jabs doesn’t actually require anyone to get all...

Hunter Biden’s very expensive and high-powered legal team denied House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer’s (R-KY) letter demanding the president’s son disclose troves of documents and communications relevant to the investigation into the Biden family for wire fraud, tax evasion, and money laundering, among six other potential violations. Attorney Abbe Lowell, who represents high-profile individuals engulfed in political scandals, such as Bill Clinton and Jared Kushner, told Comer that his demands lacked “legitimate legislative and oversight basis” to request such relevant information. On Wednesday evening, Comer asked Hunter and James Biden, along with the family’s business partner Eric Schwerin, disclose...

Could anybody possibly be stupid enough to believe the line that wind and solar generators can provide reliable electricity to consumers that is cheaper than electricity generated by fossil fuels? It takes hardly any thought about the matter to realize that wind and solar don’t work when it is calm and dark, as it often is, and particularly so in the winter, when it is also generally cold. Thus a wind/solar electricity system needs full backup, or alternatively storage — things that add to and multiply costs. Surely, our political leaders and top energy gurus are fully aware of these...

Mandy Lee Carlson, 31, of California, has been sentenced to 364 days in the Alachua County Jail; she was arrested at the Gainesville Airport in 2021 with 62 pounds of marijuana. On May 18, 2021, Gainesville Police Department (GPD) received information from the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office Airport Bureau, stating that Carlson had boarded an American Airlines flight in Sacramento with approximately 24 individual packages of marijuana, each weighing approximately 1 pound. A search of a law enforcement database found no ties to Gainesville, FL, or criminal history for Carlson. GPD later learned that Carlson had not boarded her connecting...

A pregnant woman who was shot multiple times outside a convenience store in Fayetteville has lost her unborn child. Rich says she had no idea the three men standing near the ice machine outside the Cumberland Food Mart were up to no good. Security camera video shows Rich leaving the store and the confrontation begins. "The guy said, 'Give me that!' and grabbed my keys," she recalls. "I thought he was playing, because he was young. And then I went, like, to reach after him, and he shot me." Rich says the seven gunshots happened so fast. "I think I...

In recent congressional testimony, a former FBI intelligence analyst revealed further details about the bureau’s attempts to disproportionately persecute anyone who even attended the peaceful protest in Washington D.C. on January 6th, 2021, from bank account surveillance efforts to pressuring local field offices into launching investigations.

No, they’re not cutting off food supplies or building labor camps but these modern-day tyrants seek the same ends: crush the opposition and control the masses. They sure don’t make tyrants like they used to. Tyrants once rose to power the old-fashioned way: defeating the opposition on the battlefield or at the faux ballot box. Despite their atrocities, these despots at least had some swagger—perhaps a way with the ladies, a good sense of humor, strong persuasive abilities, commanding verbal skills, pride in their appearance. Not so with modern-day martinets. Our 21st-century tyrants possess nothing more than useless degrees from...

KYIV, Ukraine — Ukrainian officials said they require coordinates provided or confirmed by the United States and its allies for the vast majority of strikes using its advanced U.S.-provided rocket systems, a previously undisclosed practice that reveals a deeper and more operationally active role for the Pentagon in the war. The disclosure, confirmed by three senior Ukrainian officials and a senior U.S. official, comes after months of Kyiv’s forces pounding Russian targets — including headquarters, ammunition depots and barracks — on Ukrainian soil with the U.S.-provided High Mobility Artillery Rocket System, or HIMARS, and other similar precision-guided weapons such as...

PORT ROYAL, Monday, Feb. 2, 1863. We have startling news from the blockading fleet off Charleston. On Saturday last, the 31st ultimo, in the quiet, hazy atmosphere of early morning, two iron-clad rams, of whose existence we have often heard, sallied out of Charleston harbor, and dashed madly around among the gunboats, attempting to repeat the affair of the Merrimac at Hampton Roads with the ill-starred Congress and Cumberland. Coming down the main ship channel, the rams first attacked the Mercedita, and with such sudden fury that her crew were unable to fire a shot, and were forced to surrender...

U.S. and French troops that are part of a NATO battlegroup in Romania held a military exercise on Thursday to test the 30-nation alliance’s eastern flank defenses, as Russia’s full-scale invasion of neighboring Ukraine nears its one-year anniversary. The joint combat drills at the Black Sea training range in Capu Midia, dubbed Eagle Royal 23, involved some 350 multinational battlegroup troops who practiced firing live ammunition from a U.S.-made HIMARS, a mobile, truck-mounted missile system. The HIMARS have been successfully used by Ukraine’s military against Russia. Romania’s defense ministry said that the goal of the drills — held between Feb....

Pray For The Peace of JerusalemMark 3Crowds Follow Jesus7 Jesus withdrew with his disciples to the lake, and a large crowd from Galilee followed. 8 When they heard about all he was doing, many people came to him from Judea, Jerusalem, Idumea, and the regions across the Jordan and around Tyre and Sidon. 9 Because of the crowd he told his disciples to have a small boat ready for him, to keep the people from crowding him. 10 For he had healed many, so that those with diseases were pushing forward to touch him. 11 Whenever the impure spirits saw...

Well duh, he’s on a mission to save the world from us useless eaters! The apple really doesn’t fall far from the tree. We’ve all known that leftist dweeb Bill Gates holds absurdly misplaced views regarding his status as an “elite,” but he’s finally expressly verbalized (on video no less!) the same pseudo-superiority of his late father, and it’s just as gross and pathetic as you can imagine. Here’s a little back story: Margaret Sanger’s American Birth Control League was the predecessor to modern abortion giant Planned Parenthood, and her obsession with Malthusian eugenics is well-documented. Sanger’s co-founder at the...

Our oldest son and his wife and the new baby boy (8 mos. old) have Covid. The son and wife had Covid after having been vaccinated (he was insistent about it) and now have it again. That vaccine does NOT work and IS endangering people. My wife got the Pfizer jab (only once) and I convinced her to not ever get another one. I have not been vaccinated, bot a mild form of Covid and have not had it since. Posting for documentation.
