Russian defence chiefs have been mocked for claiming to destroy a German-supplied lethal Leopard 2 tank - when in fact they had blown up tractors in Ukrainian fields. The ridiculing was led by head of Wagner private army Yevgeny Prigozhin, who sees it as yet more evidence of blundering incompetence by Putin's defence chiefs and army. The Russian defence ministry hailed 'footage of the destruction of foreign armoured vehicles, including Leopard tanks'. But in reality, military analysts say the footage showed Russia blasting farm vehicles with a missile fired from a Ka-52 Alligator attack helicopter. In the video, a Russian...

Could Target's woke executives finally be made to pay attention?They might, given that they've been issued legal demands from a shareholder to produce all documents related to its woke transgender agenda.According to America First Legal, a group that is led by Stephen Miller, a former member of the Trump White House:WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, America First Legal (AFL), on behalf of its client, the National Center for Public Policy Research (NCPPR), served the Target Corporation with a formal demand for the production of corporate books and records, seeking transparency regarding its management’s radical LGBT political agenda that has apparently cost...

"Greed of the fossil fuel industry" is "destroying our planet," says Sen. Bernie Sanders. Young people agree. Their solution? Socialism. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez says socialism creates "an environment that provides for all people, not just the privileged few." "Nonsense," says Tom Palmer of the Atlas Network in my new video. Palmer, unlike Ocasio-Cortez and most of us, spent lots of time in socialist countries. He once smuggled books into the Soviet Union. What he's seen convinces him that environmental-movement socialists are wrong about what's "green." "We tried socialism," says Palmer. "We ran the experiment. It was a catastrophe. Worst environmental...

Patients receiving neuromuscular blocking medications as part of their anesthetic regimen should be carefully monitored to ensure best care, according to guidelines from the American Society of Anesthesiologists and the European Society of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care. Medications that provide neuromuscular blockade are frequently used in anesthesia, both to ease placement of a breathing tube at the beginning of the anesthetic (intubation) and to provide optimal conditions for the surgery itself. Both ASA and ESAIC guidelines for the management of neuromuscular blockade recommend patients be monitored quantitatively as part of the process, meaning that the degree of muscle relaxation is...

Video at source A cold-hearted bowhunter shrugged off a sobbing boy who confronted him about hunting in his Long Island town, telling the child that death is simply “a part of life,” new video shows. Dominick Lobifaro, 30, was confronted Sunday by an Oakdale man and an animal-loving youngster who weren’t happy to see him scoping out a nearby wooded area of state-owned land apparently too close to their home, according to a clip of the heated encounter. “Hey, the kids wanna know — why you wanna kill deer?” the unidentified man asked Lobifaro as he sat in his truck....

As if things weren't rocky enough for CNN Worldwide CEO Chris Licht, a new report from The Wall Street Journal revealed top on-air talent voiced concerns about the CEO to incoming COO David Leavy. The Journal, citing anonymous sources close to the matter, reported that Anderson Cooper, Jake Tapper, and Erin Burnett have all criticized Licht. The report follows a disastrous profile in The Atlantic, a widely-panned town hall with former President Donald Trump, and an ongoing ratings slump. CNN announced that Leavy would be joining CNN 24 hours before Tim Alberta's Atlantic piece dropped, and though the new COO...

Yesterday, globalists at the European Union and World Health Organization unveiled a “landmark digital health partnership” to “facilitate global mobility and protect citizens across the world from on-going and future health threats.” We’re promised, moreover, that “This first building block of the WHO Global Digital Health Certification Network…will… deliver better health for all.” Actually, what you’ll get with this “health partnership” is international aggregation of your personal data, surveillance, control and abuse. Even before that dark day arrives, as Dr. Robert Malone has pointed out, bureaucrats in the “Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology” have already launched...

Ukraine's Major General Andrey Kovalchuk, the former commander of November's Kherson Counteroffensive, tells The Post how he intended to blow up the dam. "Kovalchuk considered flooding the river," The Post writes. "The Ukrainians, he said, even conducted a test strike with a HIMARS launcher on one of the floodgates at the Nova Kakhovka dam, making three holes in the metal to see if the Dnieper's water could be raised enough to stymie Russian crossings but not flood nearby villages. The test was a success, Kovalchuk said, but the step remained a last resort.

The destruction of the Nova Kakhovka dam in southern Ukraine may deprive Russian-occupied Crimea of vital freshwater supplies for more than a decade, according to the head of the Ukrainian Ecological League. Kyiv has started the evacuation of thousands of residents on the west bank of the river, while urging Russian occupation authorities on the east bank to evacuate tens of thousands more. While both sides grapple with the sudden devastation, the water levels at the Nova Kakhovka reservoir—which is north of the dam and was a source of water for the North Crimean Canal and the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power...

Public outrage is gathering steam as corporate America tries to force woke gender ideology and the LGBTQ agenda down the throats of consumers. The American people are fed up and using their voices and money to fight back. Yet, there is a bigger story. Why would major retailers risk heavy market losses – and possibly bankruptcy – to appease such a small segment of the U.S. population – 7.2%, acccording to a Gallup poll? Why is there so much national attention on transgenderism? Why does the federal government fund mental health and require data mining on students? U.N. scheme Since...

In a new study of trastuzumab deruxtecan, a HER2-targeted antibody drug conjugate, researchers observed encouraging responses and long-lasting clinical benefit in several tumor types. These data from an interim analysis of the Phase II DESTINY-PanTumor02 study. The treatment achieved an objective response rate (ORR) of 61.3% with a median duration of response (DOR) of 22.1 months in patients with the highest levels of HER2 expression. Across all patients, the ORR was 37.1% with a median DOR of 11.8 months. An ORR of more than 30% was observed in all cancer types except biliary tract (22%) and pancreatic cancers (4%). Antibody...

At least three people were arrested when a brawl broke out Tuesday between pro- and anti-LGBTQ+ protesters outside of a school board meeting in Southern California where members were deciding whether to recognize June as Pride month. Several rowdy demonstrators threw punches just as the Glendale Unified School District in Los Angeles County was due to hold an official vote on the matter. Almost 500 people gathered in the school headquarters’ parking lot, where those for and against the district resolution began to tussle over the global recognition and celebration of the LGBTQ+ community. Some protesters even dressed in T-shirts...

VIDEOYet another suspect in Nord Stream pipeline bombing has been suggested by the Washington Post. First it was blamed on the Russians. Then Seymour Hersh reported it was the USA. After that it was blamed on a group of rogue Ukrainians and now the Washington Post claims it was the Ukrainian military who bombed the pipeline with the full knowledge in advance by the Americans. However, isn't the all too obvious suspect being overlooked? In this video you will be given slight clues as to who are most likely the REAL perps. So put on your Sherlock Holmes caps and...

Welcome to the Bidenville Mortgage Depot! Where Bidenflation (caused by idiotic energy policies, crazy Fed money printing and insane Federal spending) has caused The Fed to raise rates crushing the US mortgage market.

This week’s results include an adjustment for the Memorial Day holiday.

Vice President Kamala Harris picked a fight with the Israeli government during remarks at an Independence Day reception hosted by the Israeli embassy in Washington on Tuesday evening, criticizing proposed judicial reforms in Israel. The event was meant to highlight the close ties between the U.S. and Israel after 75 years of Israeli independence. But Harris appeared to ad-lib a criticism, triggering a diplomatic spat.

Two of California’s largest reservoirs in Northern California are near 100% capacity, and the newly-resurrected Tulare Lake in the Central Valley is near its peak size, as the spring runoff from a rainy winter continues. Lake Shasta, which is run by the federal government, and Lake Oroville, which supplies the state water project, are at 98% and 99% of capacity, respectively. Authorities are carefully managing both to prevent overflows. The San Francisco Chronicle reports: Shasta Lake in Shasta County and Lake Oroville in Butte County, where much of Northern California’s water is stored, are at 98% and 99% of their...

The bozo prepares to run at the bear. Instagram The unidentified man flexes in triumph following his cretinous deed. Instagram Video at source The clip shows a sunglasses-sporting hellion parking his car alongside what appears to be a black bear in a meadow as his friend films from the passenger seat.
