The FBI has reportedly conducted searches at the University of Delaware on at least two occasions as part of the criminal investigation into President Biden’s apparent mishandling of classified documents. The searches were conducted in “recent weeks,” according to CNN, with the consent and cooperation of the 80-year-old president’s lawyers. Investigators searched two university locations on two different days and seized material that did not appear to have classified markings, according to the report. The materials are being reviewed by the FBI. The two batches of documents investigators focused on were an archive of materials from Biden’s time in the...

As House Republicans probe the “weaponization” of the federal government against the citizens it serves, the FBI recently showed why such an investigation is necessary. In Richmond last month, the FBI, which works for a Catholic president, circulated an internal memo that ripped traditional Catholics as potential terrorists.

"Give me a break, man," an irritated Biden responded before leaving the room. He is too demented to answer questions, that's the elephant in the room.

he leader of the Canadian Conservative Party, Pierre Poilievre, said that if he were to be elected Prime Minister, he would not impose digital IDs. He made the comment on a campaign trail in Windsor, Ontario. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government announced its federal Digital Identity Program last August. “And to answer your question, I will never allow the government to impose a digital ID,” Poilievre said. Poilievre’s comment came a few days after Alberta and Saskatchewan’s premiers said that they were not interested in a federal digital ID. “The government of Saskatchewan is not creating a Digital ID nor...

The US military is conducting wide-area surveillance tests across six midwest states using experimental high-altitude balloons, documents filed with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) reveal. Up to 25 unmanned solar-powered balloons are being launched from rural South Dakota and drifting 250 miles through an area spanning portions of Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin and Missouri, before concluding in central Illinois. Travelling in the stratosphere at altitudes of up to 65,000ft, the balloons are intended to “provide a persistent surveillance system to locate and deter narcotic trafficking and homeland security threats”, according to a filing made on behalf of the Sierra Nevada Corporation,...

Former abortion workers who attended the March for Life in January shared horror stories from inside the abortion industry, including one of a born-alive baby being drowned in a toilet, as well as accounts of the mental health issues workers suffer as a result of partaking in abortion. Abortion is ‘just a business’ One woman, who said she began working at Planned Parenthood because she felt strongly that abortion was a woman’s right, eventually changed her mind and left the industry. “I realized that that wasn’t it. That abortion was just a business. That abortion was harming women and the...

What Is the Longhouse?Something has gone wrong in modern cultural and political life. Only those hopelessly numb, or deceived by the academic parlor tricks of someone like Steven Pinker, can observe the state of things and not see serious problems on the horizon. The Great and the Good have become the mediocre and the lame. The conditions necessary for civic and personal virtue have steadily eroded. Even if a cataclysm never comes, a civilization contenting itself to die on history’s hospice bed is crisis enough.In certain corners of the online right you encounter a term that is at first glance...

The gay men’s chorus that sparked outrage in 2021 for its allegedly “tongue-in-cheek” song about “coming for” conservatives’ children is teaming up with Disney to put on a March concert celebrating “love, LGBTQ+ pride, and family ties.” The San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus (SFGMC) made the announcement in a January 30 statement, noting that the so-called “Disney PRIDE in Concert” will be held March 16-17 “in celebration of SFGMC’s 45th anniversary and the 100th anniversary of Disney.” The event will be produced with Disney Concerts, the Disney Music Group’s concert production and licensing arm. The Daily Wire pointed out that...

The president said the three objects shot down after the military's take-down of the Chinese spy balloon is most likely from private entities and not believed to be related to China or other surveillance operations. The intelligence committee is still assessing the three unknown aerial objects, President Biden said during a press briefing on Thursday. "I gave the order to take down these objects, and couldn't rule out the risk of surveillance," Biden said. *snip* The U.S. is in the process of recovering pieces of the Chinese balloon, officials said. But debris from the three other objects shot down over...

Noah Baumbach’s latest film, White Noise, arrived on Netflix at the end of December, without much fanfare. Despite a strong fall film festival run, it received mixed reviews from critics; it peaked at no. 4 on Netflix’s self-reported Global Top 10 list. But White Noise is coming back into the public eye in a big way after the recent toxic train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio, led to many pointing out similarities between real life and the film. The explosion, which is referred to in the movie as “The Airborne Toxic Event,” leads to lots of confusion, a lack of...

Multiple choice for readers. Is Don Lemon:Intellectually challenged. A misogynist. A supine shill for Joe Biden. All of the above?The question arises after Lemon's pitiful performance on Thursday's CNN This Morning. Responding to Nikki Haley's call on Wednesday for candidates over 75 [looking at you, Biden and Trump!] to be tested for mental competency, Lemon made a pathetic attempt to turn the tables on Haley, saying: "She says people, you know, politicians or something are not in their prime. Nikki Haley isn't in her prime—sorry. A woman is considered being in her prime in her 20s and 30s and maybe...

The cost of a dozen eggs has now surpassed the price of a pound of beef, marking the first time that’s happened since the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics began keeping data in 1980. The average price of a dozen large Grade A eggs ran at $4.82 in January 2023, while a pound of ground beef was $4.64. In January 2022, eggs were $1.93, and beef was $4.77, but egg prices have soared by 70% in the last year alone. Farm Action, a farmer-led advocacy group, says the “real culprit” behind sky-high prices is a “collusive scheme” among top U.S....

Two academics at Stanford University secured the $250 million bond on behalf of former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried ahead of his trial, court documents revealed on Wednesday. Bankman-Fried pleaded not guilty last month to eight charges, including conspiracy to commit wire fraud, conspiracy to commit securities fraud, and conspiracy to defraud the Federal Election Commission through campaign finance violations. His cryptocurrency empire collapsed at the end of last year after users and investors learned that FTX had improperly commingled funds with sister trading company Alameda Research. Mark Cohen, a lawyer for Bankman-Fried who previously defended Jeffrey Epstein confidant Ghislaine Maxwell,...
