VIDEOThe Army brought back the "Be All You Can Be" theme to their ads. That theme started in the early 80s but after a certain performance at a Washington D.C. march in 1993, those ads appeared much less frequently until they were completely dropped a few years later. Now they have resurrected that "Be All You Can Be" theme but will that 1993 performance come back again to haunt them?

An Instagram influencer — and self-proclaimed “con artist” — flaunted her way to a federal guilty plea. Native New Yorker Danielle Miller, 32, admitted Monday the luxurious lifestyle she bragged about on TikTok and Instagram was funded with more than $1 million in stolen COVID-relief loans, federal prosecutors said. Miller pleaded guilty to fraudulently obtaining $1.5 million in government funds by swiping the identities of more than 10 people, according to the the US Attorney’s Office for the District of Massachusetts. The Horace Mann graduate — who has more than 34,000 followers on Instagram — then brazenly publicized pricey items...

Prominent Japanese scientist Dr. Masanori Fukushima has warned that the harms caused by the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccines, especially those of the mRNA variety, are now a worldwide problem. Fukushima is the chairman of the Translational Research Informatics Center and also serves as professor emeritus at Kyoto University. He has nearly three decades of experience in cancer research and overarching medical care. According to Fukushima, the extensiveness of adverse health outcomes caused by the mRNA injections ultimately put billions of innocent people in harm’s way. As early as March last year, data from the U.S. Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System...

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...

The Job Creators Network is hammering Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) with a massive billboard in Times Square, as she continues to brag about her role in hampering Amazon’s plans to build a second headquarters in Queens, New York, — a project that would have helped bring some 25,000 new jobs to parts of her congressional district. “If Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez spent as much time worrying about creating jobs versus killing them, the U.S. economy would be in a lot better shape than it is today. Her recent victory lap over killing thousands of good paying jobs in New York City...

A judge on Monday ordered sanctions against Republican Mark Finchem, the losing candidate in Arizona’s secretary of state race who challenged the election results in court. In granting the sanctions, Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Melissa Iyer Julian said Finchem and his attorney, Daniel McCauley III, filed their lawsuit “without substantial justification.” Finchem lost the election to Democrat Adrian Fontes by 120,208 votes. Julian in December dismissed Finchem's lawsuit, which requested a new election, alleged that then-Secretary of State Katie Hobbs had engaged in misconduct and claimed that illegal votes were cast because of errors in the laboratory testing of...

March 6 (UPI) -- The second attempt to launch Japan's next-generation H3 rocket failed on Tuesday as its second-stage engine did not ignite, forcing officials to command that it self-destruct. Liftoff of the Asian nation's new flagship launch vehicle occurred as scheduled at 10:37 a.m., Japanese standard time, from the Tanegashima Space Center, located on the island of Tanegashima, south of Kyushu. But minutes into its flight, the rocket's second-stage engine failed to ignite, resulting in the launch vehicle to lose velocity. Controllers at the Tanegashima Space Center then ordered the destruction of the vehicle and its satellite payload, stating...

According to an opinion piece published in the French news portal Boulevard Voltaire written by Marie Delarue, the European Commission has created a news portal uniting Europhile press in order to fix its negative image. The French newspaper Libération has announced a free offer for an online subscription to the new newsletter “European Focus” on its own website. Associated with eight other titles of the European press, this new media will be responsible for “delivering a new way to read Europe every week”. In Delarue’s view, Brussels has found a solution to its image problem among EU citizens: the project...

CNN used misleading data from the Gun Violence Archive to claim Monday “the U.S. has surpassed 100 mass shootings in 2023.” CNN noted, “America reached the grim number by the first week of March.” Both CNN and the Gun Violence Archive departed from the standard definition for mass shootings, which the Rand Corporation observed as being derived from the FBI’s 1980s definition of a “mass murderer” of an individual who “kills four or more people in a single incident (not including himself).”

Hang ’em high! As inflation remains persist (thanks to endless Fed stimulus and endless Federal spending splurges), we are seeing The Federal Reserve finally withdrawing the monetary stimulus (tightening the monetary noose). And with it, the US Treasury yield curve (10Y-2Y) goes down with it. Another sign of distress is the spread between credit and equities which has turned positive as it does in times of crisis. First, we had Resident Biden visiting Ukraine, then Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen visited Ukraine (for some strange reason), then US Attorney General Merrick “The Mouse” Garland is visiting the Ukraine. What the hell...

Iranian authorities announced Tuesday the first arrests linked to a series of mysterious poisonings of schoolgirls across the country.

A Florida man was violently attacked by a 9-foot alligator Saturday at his home in Daytona Beach. Scott Hollingsworth told local media that he and his wife were watching television on Saturday night when he heard something banging against the door. “I jumped up and headed over and opened the door, stepped out while trying to reach the lights and barely got out the door and got my leg clamped on and [it] started shaking really violently,” he said. “It happened so quickly, wasn’t a whole lot [of time]. It was just total surprise and shock. We see alligators behind...

"I prayed to the Lord my God and confessed" (Dan. 9:4). God will not respond to self-righteous prayers. In Luke 18 Jesus told a parable to people who were trusting in their own self-righteousness. He said, "Two men went up into the temple to pray, one a Pharisee, and the other a tax-gatherer. The Pharisee stood and was praying thus to himself, 'God, I thank Thee that I am not like other people: swindlers, unjust, adulterers, or even like this tax-gatherer. I fast twice a week; I pay tithes of all that I get.' "But the tax-gatherer, standing some distance...

The only good aspect of this revolting story is that the government of the Isle of Man, a sparsely populated Crown Dependency of the United Kingdom that will soon be having to change its name (Isle of Folx? Isle of Women, Womyn, and Oppressors? Isle of LGBTQ+?) has actually moved to stop this madness, at least to a limited extent. Fox News reported Wednesday that Isle of Man (sorry!) authorities have “suspended sex education at schools after a drag queen allegedly forced a student to leave class for refuting the concept of 73 genders.” It’s just great that they have...

Kellyanne Conway, who ran the 2016 campaign of former President Donald Trump, is getting a divorce from her husband, George Conway, who was part of the campaign to keep Trump out of the White House in 2020. The two have been married for 22 years and have four children, according to Page Six. “Congratulations to Kellyanne Conway on her DIVORCE from her wacko husband, Mr. Kellyanne Conway. Free at last, she has finally gotten rid of the disgusting albatross around her neck,” Trump posted on Truth Social. “She is a great person, and will now be free to lead the...
