KYIV — Attorney General Merrick Garland's surprise Ukraine trip was cut short over the weekend after government officials asked him to leave, citing an overabundance of corrupt government officials already in the country. "Believe me, Mr. Garland, your corruption is legendary," said President Zelensky during their short meeting. "But Ukraine is already corrupt to the core. We're pros at corruption, so we have this pretty well covered. We will not be needing your services, thank you very much." Sources say the Attorney General stammered in response, citing his lengthy rap sheet which included sending the FBI after parents who protest...

Fox News contributor and former Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway said Monday on FNC’s “The Story” that Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) should focus on Florida’s economic success instead of “woke and COVID.” Conway said, “I give President Trump and Governor DeSantis credit for being out there connecting with voters. You had Kamala Harris and Joe Biden at home. They were in California and Delaware yet again, as if all the nation’s problems have been solved. I thought up Trump getting at CPAC and saying I can finish the job. We had lower crime, lower prices. Only he can say that I’ve...

Former Bush 43 adviser Karl Rove said Monday on FNC’s “The Story” that former President Donald Trump needs to “move on” from claiming he won the 2020 presidential election. Sunday at CPAC in Maryland, Trump said, “We are never going back to the party of Paul Ryan, Karl Rove, and Jeb Bush.” Anchor Martha MacCallum said, “President Trump went after you at one point, went after other Republicans and said, you know, that’s not the direction we’re going anymore. We’re moving hard on America first, and this is the last battle. Everyone knows it. The country could be lost forever.”

California’s COVID emergency will be expiring at the beginning of next month, and this apparently is freaking out San Francisco’s public health establishment.Both mask and vaccine mandates will expire, including for healthcare facilities. Few people are aware of this but the CDC’s own healthcare mask requirements were dropped months ago–back in September 2022, in fact. Chances are if you have been required to wear a mask to enter a doctor’s office or similar facility wearing a mask, it was your state or the facility that required it. The CDC no longer does.San Francisco’s Health Officer Susan Philip knows better, and...

The Public Health Agency of Canada is no longer recommending vaccines for the vast majority of Canadians, restricting their recommendation for getting the jab to the immunocompromised and others who are more likely to suffer from severe health effects from COVID.Canada is joining other members of the OECD in downplaying the need or even restricting the availability of the COVID vaccine for people who are not at risk for severe cases of COVID.The United States is not only recommending COVID vaccines and boosters for people in high-risk categories but for every single American 6 months old and up. It’s as...

Beginning Monday, America will finally get a look at hidden January 6 footage in an exposé airing on Tucker Carlson Tonight on the Fox News network. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy gave Carlson access to far more than the 14,000 hours of video the Feds said existed. That was the story they told defendants who were awaiting trial on charges from “parading” to trespassing to interrupting Congress and “seditious conspiracy,” and who wanted the video footage that could exonerate them. But it turns out that there was a far greater amount of video — 44,000 hours — that the Department of...

AT&T spokeswoman launches into leftist social justice rant (Credit: TikTok/Twitter) In 2019, Gillette decided that it needed to pile-drive its customer base with a “men are terrible” message. They ran an ad campaign with the ostensible message that “toxic masculinity” was bad, and they did it by nuking every man alive or dead. Toxic anything is bad. I don’t need a razor company lecturing during the Super Bowl, while it places me in the same company of jerks just because some men are jerks. Gillette wasn’t advertising a product, rather, it was lecturing its customer base. The “message” didn’t...

[Catholic Caucus] "Is it really time for hiding?" Why priests should openly refuse to stop offering the Latin MassI publish the following translation as a stimulus to further reflection in these difficult times. I do not personally believe that clandestinity and open resistance are incompatible: in situations where prudential decisions must be made according to a variety of circumstances, either course of action may be defensible. Nevertheless, I agree with the author that there needs to be, in many places and from many lips, a firm "non possumus" and a public resolve to continue on, in the teeth of pseudo-sanctions....

Democrats have been running around like decapitated chickens ever since news broke that House Speaker Kevin McCarthy has given Tucker Carlson unfettered access to surveillance footage from inside the Capitol during the Jan. 6, 2021, riot by supporters of President Donald Trump. The Fox News host will air five stories culled from the footage Monday and Tuesday nights, countering the overblown “insurrection” narrative the Democrats and their media toadies have been pushing since Day One. The characterization of conservative Republicans as an “ultra-MAGA semi-fascist” menace to democracy was pushed by the partisan J6 committee and was the Democrats’ main sales...

Sky News host Rita Panahi says United States President Joe Biden continues to say “crazy things that make no sense” where he detailed an awkward encounter with a nurse. “I’m officially giving up, I will no longer try to decipher what the worst president in living memory is trying to convey,” Ms Panahi said. “I’m done I’m out.”

[Catholic Caucus] Serious Catholics Refuse to Donate to Francis’ Vatikenstein — now it’s going broke.They want to annihilate Traditional Catholics, they persecute conservative bishops, they alienate serious priests, nuns, and seminarians, they ridicule Catholic morality, they name abortionists and perverts to official positions —they shouldn’t be shocked the faithful are fed up. No wonder Francis' monstrous Vatikenstein is going broke. From The Pillar:The Secretariat for the Economy, which requested the new rental policy, has yet to release financial results for 2022, or a projection for 2023, but sources close to the department have privately suggested the Holy See’s 3.3 million...

Twitter users blasted Merrick Garland after he said that the U.S. DOJ has prosecuted more pro-life activists blocking abortion clinic centers than pro-choicers firebombing pregnancy centers because pro-lifers operate in the "daylight." Twitter users blasted U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland on Wednesday after he explained that the U.S. Department of Justice has prosecuted more pro-life activists blocking abortion clinic centers than pro-choicers firebombing pregnancy centers because pro-lifers operate in the "daylight." Garland made the point that it was easier for the U.S. government to carry out justice against pro-lifers than pregnancy center arsonists in a Senate Judiciary Committee oversight hearing...

[Catholic Caucus] "L'Eglise, c'est moi!" - Reflection by Francis Patruno The famous expression "L'État, c'est moi!" is commonly attributed to Louis XIV, the Sun King, ruler of France. It is debated among historians whether the King ever uttered it. Whether uttered or not, it expressed the idea of a fact, namely, that the state was identified with the person of the King. A conviction that dies hard when we recall that a De Gaulle, still in the 20th century, affirmed: "Je suis la France."Now, moving to the ecclesiastical level, paraphrasing the famous phrase we have recalled, Francis may well...

**SNIP** The latest situation earning the ire of watchdogs is Rep. Cori Bush's (D-MO) newly announced marriage to a security guard for her campaign, despite her husband, Cortney Merritts, reportedly not holding a St. Louis private security license. Bush's marriage, which was quietly inked in January, is part of a string of alleged ethics issues for Squad members, which include the likes of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), and five other Democrats, watchdogs say. **SNIP** Ocasio-Cortez is being investigated by the House Ethics Committee, per a December 2022 government press release. While it's...
