A Michigan small business, refusing to blindly support local law enforcement after the way some departments handled the Covid-19 pandemic, issued a scathing response to a Michigan police group after they asked for an ammo donation. After the Michigan Tactical Officers Association (MTOA) asked Fenix Ammo for a donation for its upcoming training conference, CEO Justin Nazaroff replied he would be happy to do so, under certain conditions. Nazaroff said he needed “a face-to-face apology from every Michigan police officer” who enforced Covid-19 restrictions, according to an email reviewed by the Daily Caller. Nazaroff also requested a signed statement from...

Former Russian commander Igor Girkin knocked the "strategic senselessness" of Russia's claimed Bakhmut victory on Saturday. Yevgeny Prigozhin, founder of the Wagner Group, a paramilitary unit, said his troops took full control of Bakhmut on Saturday following months of fighting over the Donetsk city. His claims, which could not be independently verified, were dismissed by Ukraine. Bakhmut has emerged as a major focal point in the Russia-Ukraine war, launched by Russian President Vladimir Putin last February, as both sides have engaged in intense, bloody fighting over the city. As Prigozhin celebrated the alleged victory, Girkin took to Telegram to question...

Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage. Galatians 5:1 Everything the Conspiracy nuts, Qanon, Alex Jones, and MAGA was laughed at and mocked for the past six years was true according to the Durham Report. The Nation’s greatest intelligence scandal happened at the hands of Barak, Biden, and his KGB and CIA to spy on Trump from the time he came down the elevator and all through his administration and nobody in the Samestream media reports on it. They and everyone in Moscow on the...

Tens of thousands of non-citizens have tried or made it onto voter rolls across the U.S. over recent years, according to an election watchdog's analysis of data from several states. Non-citizen voters have been found on voter rolls in North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Texas and Maricopa County, Ariz. In Georgia, there were non-citizens who attempted to register to vote but were placed in a pending status because there wasn't evidence of their citizenship, so they didn't make it onto the voter rolls. "Pennsylvania has been covering up for years, the tens of thousands of aliens who got on the voter rolls...

The NAACP's national board of directors has issued a formal travel advisory for Florida, warning black and LGBTQ people against visiting the state due to Governor Ron DeSantis' policies. 'Florida is openly hostile toward African Americans, people of color and LGBTQ+ individuals,' states the advisory issued on Saturday night by the civil rights group.

Whistleblowers have emerged over the last several years to accuse the Biden administration of mishandling the federal investigation into Hunter Biden, politicizing federal law enforcement agencies and shielding evidence related to a "criminal scheme" Joe Biden allegedly engaged in as vice president. Whistleblower protections are enshrined in federal statute, and federal law protects these disclosures. The protocol is for a whistleblower to first go to an immediate supervisor or the supervisor in charge with the issue at hand. If the whistleblower believes that reaching out to a supervisor could jeopardize his or her well-being or that supervisor is implicated in...

Yucaipa, California – Tracy Vanderhulst, a 38-year-old teacher from Yucaipa High School, has been arrested on charges of engaging in sexual activity with a student. The incident marks the third case of a similar nature at the school within the past decade. Vanderhulst, who was honored as the ‘Teacher of the Year’ in 2017, was taken into custody on Thursday and subsequently booked into the San Bernardino County detention center. Her bail has been set at $30,000. The allegations against Vanderhulst involve engaging in sexual activity with a 16-year-old male student. She is now facing charges of unlawful sexual intercourse...

Oklahoma's top education official is waging a war on teachers unions that he said will completely overhaul the state's education system. Ryan Walters, Oklahoma's State Superintendent, recently sparked backlash from his Democratic opponents when he called teacher unions "terrorist organizations" during a state congressional hearing earlier this month. The meeting ended after intense questioning from Democrats who objected to many of his claims. "They're not advocating for kids," he told Fox News Digital. "They're not advocating for teachers really, either. All they're doing is lining their pocketbooks so that union leadership gets richer and richer, and they continue to fight...

Whatever their game plan, party and finances, nearly all candidates for president start with the same two challenges: First, win the nomination and then unite your party to have a shot at winning the general election. Then there are those unlucky candidates in this year’s Republican field who face a third challenge. By the end of this week, there will be at least seven contestants in a race to see who gets to go head-to-head with Donald Trump for the GOP crown. But wait, there’s yet another obstacle for that lucky survivor. If he or she manages to defeat Trump...

Farmers in the Netherlands may be restricted to just two cows to an area the size of a soccer stadium pitch, or slightly wider than an American football field. Prime Minister Mark Rutte, who has led the Netherlands at the head of the RINO-style People’s Party for Freedom and Democracy (VVD) since 2010, is attacking farmers on multiple fronts as he attempts to implement EU diktats related to nitrogen, methane, and other climate change boogeymen. This has resulted in widespread farmer protests, one of which saw police open fire on a slowly-moving tractor driven by a 16-year-old-boy, and the rise...

Kari Lake spoke to The Gateway Pundit yesterday after her three-day Maricopa County Superior Court trial, presenting evidence of signature verification fraud in the 2022 election, concluded. The Judge will take the matter under advisement and is expected to issue a ruling as soon as next week. Lake is fighting Maricopa County’s refusal to verify ballot affidavit signatures before Judge Peter Thompson after the Arizona Supreme Court remanded the previously dismissed claim back to trial. This is perhaps the most critical allegation in Lake’s lawsuit because it will reveal the truth about the secretive mail-in ballot fraud scheme in Maricopa...

HIROSHIMA, Japan, May 21 (Reuters) - U.S. President Joe Biden announced a new $375 million package of military aid to Ukraine on Sunday and told President Volodymyr Zelenskiy that the United States was doing all it could to strengthen Ukraine's defense for the war with Russia. Meeting with the Ukrainian leader on the sidelines of the G7 summit of world leaders in Hiroshima, Japan, Biden said the military aid package included ammunition, artillery, armored vehicles and training.

At the same time, analysts confirm that on May 7 and 8 among the facilities struck by Russia was the headquarters, where one of the commanders of the Ukrainian army was located.The authors do not rule out that Zaluzhny’s refusal to attend the NATO summit may be related to the consequences of the shelling.Earlier, the head of the NATO Military Committee, Admiral Rob Bauer, said that Zaluzhny would not be able to join the committee meeting due to the difficult operational situation on the front.

Like nearly every other vice or perversion formerly deemed unacceptable by society at large, pedophilia is now on the cusp of being decriminalized, destigmatized, and even normalized. Kids are, quite literally, being recruited to perform for the sexual gratification of adults. As just one example, “Jack’D,” a gay men’s hookup and sex app, recently sponsored an event featuring a 13-year-old boy drag queen performing an explicit strip club dance routine in front of a crowd of adult men. “Jack’D?” No need to be subtle anymore. There’s room to groom. Incredibly, various governments are now sponsoring drag summer camps for kids,...

I was honored to participate in an exposé of the World Health Organization along with Catherine Austin Fitts, Wolfgang Wodard, David Bell, Sylvia Behrendt, Philipp Kruse and Meryl Nass.

Joe Biden is the worst public speaker of any President in history. Here is “Babbling Biden” lying about the great reduction in Federal budget deficit. First, Biden didn’t “balance the budget” liked he claimed at Hiroshima. In fact, the Federal budget deficit, while improving, is still worse than it was before the 2020 Covid economic shutdown. Biden, Schumer and Yellen are ignoring the $187 TRILLION in UNFUNDED entitlements promised America, even though Biden keeps threatening to halt Social Security payments if Biden and Yellen default on the debt. No discussion of the runaway train of entitlemennts. I love this Bloomberg...

Yevgeny Prigozhin says Wagner group will leave Bakhmut, Ukraine, on Thursday. A Russian mercenary leader is preparing to pull his hired fighters out of Bakhmut, handing over the captured Ukrainian city to Russia's less skilled government troops. Yevgeny Prigozhin, head of the Wagner private army, says his soldiers will leave the city on Thursday and hand it over to the Russian military. 'Until May 25, we will completely inspect it, create the necessary defense lines and hand it over to the military so that they can continue to work, and we ourselves will go to field camps,' he said.

Andy Warhol's estate lost its U.S. Supreme Court copyright fight with celebrity photographer Lynn Goldsmith on Thursday as the justices faulted the famed pop artist's use of her photo of Prince in a silkscreen series depicting the charismatic rock star. The 7-2 ruling, authored by liberal Justice Sonia Sotomayor, upheld a lower court's decision that Warhol's works based on Goldsmith's 1981 photo were not immune from her copyright infringement lawsuit. But the ruling focused on the licensing of only one of Warhol's Prince images and did not deem the entire silkscreen series a copyright violation. The film, publishing and recording...

Democrats have long claimed to be supporters of the people, especially the poor and underprivileged. Yet, when their actions are examined even a little closely, you find that they are only interested in using these people as pawns, to increase and solidify their power. Rarely do their policies actually help the working classes, and even those they purport to be helping are beginning to see the light. While there are numerous examples of Democrat failures to support their target voting blocs, I’ll just mention a few. According to their website, “The Democratic Party and women share common values and priorities,...
