“Pandemic treaty” likely to be signed this month. Last year, conservative media ran reports about a “pandemic treaty” — it was a binding agreement between the World Health Organization and its member states, including these United States. It seemingly died (although it was only delayed), but now it’s been resurrected and reports suggest Biden is expected to unilaterally enter our country into the treaty which would subject American citizens to a global, medical police state. From an Epoch Times article via JD Rucker at America First Report: Written under the banner of ‘the world together equitably,’ the zero draft grants...

A recent survey has found that 34% of its white respondents admitted to lying about being part of a racial minority to boost their chances of getting accepted into college. Taking advantage: The survey, which questioned 1,250 white college applicants aged 16 and up, discovered that 34% of them lied in their applications, according to Intelligent. Forty-eight percent of them falsely claimed to be of Native American descent, and about 9% of them lied about being Asian American or Pacific Islander. Around 81% of the students who lied said they did it to increase their chances of getting admitted to...

The information comes from evidence unveiled this week in documents filed in Dominion’s $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit against Fox News. The documents also revealed that Fox Corp Chairman Rupert Murdoch told CEO Suzanne Scott its on-air personalities should tell viewers the night before Jan. 6 that Joe Biden won the election. -snip- The documents allege that the former president dialed into on-air personality Lou Dobbs’ show the afternoon of Jan. 6, but that executives shut down...

Even though Africa largely failed to embrace the orthodox anti-covid strategies of lockdowns, masks, social distancing, and vaccines that world health authorities were successful in foisting on so many other parts of the globe, they also avoided most of the illness and harm experienced by those who did embrace the recommended strategies. In Africa, Ivermectin is a drug in wide use for ailments common to that continent. Doctors in the US and Europe who viewed this drug as potentially useful in treating covid were harassed and censored for advocating this drug or treating patients with it. Africa's success in fending...

Speaking at a Club 45 rally in Palm Beach, Florida on George Washington’s Birthday, President Donald Trump explained what he would do to put an end to the war in Ukraine if he were reelected: “I would literally start calling, not from the day I took over, but from the night I won. And I’ll call two people… Putin… and Zelensky. And I’ll say we’re going to meet. I guarantee I could work that out. I’ll tell one guy this, and I’ll tell one guy that… We would have a deal made in 24 hours,” Trump said.Trump said that “continuing...

A massive storm is set to bring a wintry mix of snow, rain and strong winds to more than 20 states across the country this week. Millions of residents in 22 states from coast-to-coast are under winter weather alerts, with at six of those states also under blizzard warnings. The storm — named Winter Storm Olive — may also bring record-high levels of snowfall to the upper midwest, where “this event could very well break top five snowfalls in the Twin Cities dating back to 1884,” according to the local National Weather Service. The Twin Cities region may see up...

Blah blah blah. Vladimir Putin showed no sign of coming off message in his address on the anniversary of the invasion of Ukraine. He also showed no sign of remorse or even original thought. In a speech clearly intended to resonate with the Russians’ cultural mix of imperialism and paranoia, Putin insisted that the West have been the aggressors and that Putin’s invasion was in fact a defense of the motherland. “We aren’t fighting the Ukrainian people,” Putin said while spending the past year volleying missiles at their cities:(snip) One has to wonder whether the Russians can see through these...

VIDEOIn this video, YouTube Files #3, I explore how the DUmmie FUnnies channel was probably censored via demonetization by the CIA. As you can see, this demonetization occurred just four days after I posted a video about CIA Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin, "CIA Rep Wants Those With 'Unacceptable Views' Deprogrammed and Censored." You can watch the full video below which most likely angered Slotkin to the extent that the CIA officer either directly or indirectly (via CIA contacts) demanded that YouTube punish my channel."CIA Rep Wants Those With 'Unacceptable Views' Deprogrammed and Censored"

The Washington Post’s in-house cry-bully Taylor Lorenz made a hysterical attempt to blame capitalism and climate change for child depression. The Post columnist tried to wokescold the Twitterverse with her theory on the supposed true cause behind child depression. “People are like ‘why are kids so depressed it must be their PHONES!’ But never mention the fact that we’re living in a late stage capitalist hellscape during an ongoing deadly pandemic w record wealth inequality, 0 social safety net/job security, as climate change cooks the world,” she said. Lorenz lectured that “u have to be delusional to look at life...

Former President Donald Trump early Tuesday warned that President Joe Biden's policies on Ukraine could lead to a third World War. "If you watch and understand the moves being made by Biden on Ukraine, he is systematically, but perhaps unknowingly, pushing us into what could soon be WORLD WAR III," Trump wrote in a post on his Truth Social page. "How crazy is that?" Trump's comment came after Biden met with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Monday following a secretive trip to the war-torn nation's capital city of Kyiv, traveling there one day before Russian President Vladimir Putin's address to...

The immunity generated from an infection was found to be “at least as high, if not higher” than that provided by two doses of an mRNA vaccine. Immunity acquired from a Covid infection provides strong, lasting protection against the most severe outcomes of the illness, according to research published Thursday in The Lancet — protection, experts say, that’s on par with what’s provided through two doses of an mRNA vaccine. Infection-acquired immunity cut the risk of hospitalization and death from a Covid reinfection by 88% for at least 10 months, the study found. “This is really good news, in the...

The U.S. Department of Defense secured an exposed server on Monday that was spilling internal U.S. military emails to the open internet for the past two weeks. The exposed server was hosted on Microsoft’s Azure government cloud for Department of Defense customers, which uses servers that are physically separated from other commercial customers and as such can be used to share sensitive but unclassified government data. The exposed server was part of an internal mailbox system storing about three terabytes of internal military emails, many pertaining to U.S. Special Operations Command, or USSOCOM, the U.S. military unit tasked with conducting...

There was a time, believe it or not, when leftists said “Celebrate Diversity” and meant it; when it was largely a slogan on a bumper sticker. Now it’s an order: “CELEBRATE DIVERSITY…OR ELSE!” Sorry, I’m not interested. I’ve always had a natural inclination to push back against anything I was forced to do – insist I’m supposed to care about something and the odds that I won’t increase exponentially. Take, for example, US soccer. During the World Cup all the ads were about “We’re going to do this” or whatever their slogan was. The American public simply doesn’t care about...

Chinese state propaganda outlets pilloried leftist President Joe Biden for making a surprise visit to Kyiv, Ukraine, on Monday, describing his in-person meeting with his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelensky as “irrational and selfish.” Zelensky, who endured an acrimonious relationship with Biden prior to Russia’s full-scale invasion of his country last year, had been urging Biden to visit Ukraine for over a year with no success. Biden planned a visit to nearby Poland this week, marking the one-year anniversary of the Russian “special operation,” but arrived in Ukraine first.

This list only includes destroyed vehicles and equipment of which photo or videographic evidence is available. Therefore, the amount of equipment destroyed is significantly higher than recorded here. Small arms, ATGMs, MANPADS, loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles, trailers and derelict equipment are not included in this list. All possible effort has gone into avoiding duplicate entries and discerning the status of equipment between captured or abandoned. Many of the entries listed as 'abandoned' will likely end up captured or destroyed. Similarly, some of the captured equipment might be destroyed if it can't be recovered. When the...

President Joe Biden told Polish President Andrzej Duda that he wanted to add a 'ski' to his last name as a kid, because he grew up surrounded by so many Polish immigrants. ... 'I was born in a coal town of Scranton... When coal died, we moved to a town called Claymont, which was a working-class town, everybody in town was either Polish or Italian,' Biden said. 'I grew up feeling self-conscious that my name didn't end in an "ski" or an "o."'

The left-wing Labor and the center-left Yesh Atid parties are mulling mass resignations from the Knesset to protest passage of the government’s judicial reform plan, and in the hopes of disrupting the completion of the legislative process. Rumors circulated Monday evening, following the Knesset vote backing two key measures of the judicial reform plan, that the Yesh Atid party is currently considering terminating its own representation in the Knesset via a mass resignation. MK Elazar Stern (Yesh Atid) confirmed that the party is indeed weighing such an option. Speaking with Galei Tzahal Tuesday morning, Stern said Yesh Atid is considering...

This month, the Anglican Church announced that it was considering alternative ways to refer to God in the masculine form, “He.” This happened after the priests asked to be allowed to use "gender-neutral" terminology in relation to him. In Britain, they have not yet decided what they will replace the words "Our Father" in the main Christian prayer.This fact was mentioned in his address to the Federal Assembly today, Russian President Vladimir Putin. In his opinion, such a decision indicates that the West does not know what it is doing and is moving towards a spiritual catastrophe.British readers of the...
