PHILADELPHIA - President Biden’s supporters are willing to give him a pass on allegations he accepted a $5 million bribe from a Ukraine businessman, but less forgiving are independent voters who will be crucial in the general election next year. Mr. Biden has laughed it off as “a load of malarkey.” The crowd was equally dismissive of the bribery allegations at his campaign kickoff Saturday with union leaders, many of whom came from out of state to fill the ballroom at Philadelphia’s convention center. “It’s one of many conspiracy theories trying to bring Biden down,” said Bill Sciblo, a union...

Senator Rand Paul teed off on globalist Bill Gates Sunday, heavily intimating that the billionaire’s obsession with funding research into deadly viruses led directly to the COVID pandemic.

The judgment on the Tower of Babel builders should concern us all, because it is a continuing judgment on all their imitators. The Tower represented a one-world governmental center in defiance of God. Its purpose was to undo God’s judgment and to restore paradise by man’s ostensibly sovereign acts.

A battery of heavy machinery and submarines dubbed the 'last chance' for the crew of the Titan tourist submarine arrived in Canada tonight - but it now faces a race against time to help rescuers in the desperate search. The array of winches, cables and unmanned vehicles capable of going 19,000 feet underwater were delivered to St John's airport in Newfoundland by three US Air Force cargo planes. It was taken with a police escort to the port where a waiting ship, the Horizon Arctic, was due to set sail at midnight.

A Canadian military surveillance aircraft detected underwater noises as a massive search continued early Wednesday in a remote part of the North Atlantic for a submersible that vanished while taking five people down to the wreck of the Titanic. A statement from the U.S. Coast Guard did not elaborate on what rescuers believed the noises could be, though it offered a glimmer of hope for those lost abroad the Titan as estimates suggest as little as a day's worth of oxygen could be left if the vessel is still functioning. Meanwhile, questions remain about how teams could reach the lost...

"The summer solstice in 2023 will take place today, Wednesday 21 June, at precisely 3:58pm BST in the UK and 10:58am ET / 7:58am PT in the US. Contrary to popular belief, the solstice is an exact moment and not the entire day."

Some say the road to Hel is paved with good intentions — but the bus that gets you there certainly isn’t. That’s according to some conservative Christian groups, who say the “666” bus to Hel, Poland, has devilish intentions since its route number represents Satan and it goes to a place that sounds like “hell.” The local bus operator PKS Gdynia has responded to the complaints by announcing its decision to change the route number from 666 to 669. “This year we are turning the last 6 upside down!” the local bus company wrote on social media Monday. […] While...

Five years ago, almost to the day, Greta Thunberg made an apocalyptic claim about the fate of the world, and now we know whether or not it has come true. On June 21, 2018, the then-15-year-old Swedish climate activist sent out an alarming tweet that seemed to imply that due to climate change caused by fossil fuels, we only had five years left before the end of the world. “A top scientist is warning that climate change will wipe out all of humanity unless we stop using fossil fuels over the next five years,” the tweet read. Thunberg obviously realized...

John Kerry was hit with an ethics complaint Tuesday alleging he "disregarded" scientific evidence on climate issues. Protect the Public's Trust filed the complaint against the Biden administration's special presidential envoy for climate, detailing a May 10 speech in which Kerry claimed 15 million people perish every year due to greenhouse gas emissions. "This claim is both tremendously consequential and entirely unsupported by scientific evidence," the letter to State Department and White House Office of Science and Technology Policy officials states. PPT is calling for an investigation into Kerry's comments for violating the Biden administration's scientific integrity policies and are...

Nearly 10 million Americans are at risk for blindness from diabetic retinopathy, a study finds. In 2021, an estimated 9.6 million people in the United States—26% of those with diabetes—had the eye illness and nearly 2 million had the most severe form, "vision-threatening diabetic retinopathy" (VTDR), researchers say. That's 5% of those with diabetes. Diabetic retinopathy affects small blood vessels in the eye, explained Dr. Talia Kaden. "The small vessels in the eye can become damaged and abnormal, you can have a loss of blood supply to parts of the eye that can result in swelling in the back of...

Former President Trump would not say whether he believes the COVID-19 vaccine works, explaining that he does not like to talk about getting the shot approved during his time in the White House because it’s a divisive issue among Republicans. Trump, in an interview with Fox News anchor Bret Baier conducted Monday and aired Tuesday, referenced a “Democrat friend” who asked why he does not talk more about getting the COVID-19 vaccine approved just months after the pandemic started in the United States. “As you know, I got them done in nine months, and it was supposed to take anywhere...

I hear that the Chinese are going to add the image of Antony Blinken to the dictionary definition of “Kow Tow.” He went to Beijing, hat in hand, and received a less than warm welcome. The term, “frosty” comes to mind. Blinken and his Chinese hosts engaged in a one-sided “frank exchange of views” (i.e., a phrase used by diplomats to describe a tense, angry conversation). The Chinese delivered and Blinken ended up saying what the Chinese demanded he say — “the U.S. does not support Taiwan Independence.” I find it a bit hilarious. Blinken simply restated the One China...

Per Reuters: Ukraine released video of its top commander, apparently to rebut Russian suggestions that he had been killed, injured or had fled, and his Star Wars badge stole the show. The video, released by the General Staff late on Monday, showed Commander-in-Chief Valeriy Zaluzhnyi poring over maps with other generals. A clock in one shot showed Saturday’s date. The video showed Zaluzhnyi in combat uniform sporting a badge of Grogu, the pale green, pointy-eared hero best known as “Baby Yoda” from the hit Disney Star Wars TV show “The Mandalorian”. The Defense of Ukraine has embraced the patch and...
