A cabal of Political Action Committees is funneling money overwhelmingly to left-wing political causes using funds secured by affiliated groups through "sweetheart contracts" with the public sector, a watchdog group has warned.A recent report from Alliance for Consumers describes a "shady trial lawyer pipeline" in which the PACs make nearly all of their donations in support of Democratic candidates using money channeled from the beneficiaries of open-ended, ambiguous contracts intended to provide "consumer protection.""While the Shady Trial Lawyer Pipeline helps politicians funnel public money toward left-wing politics, it leaves everyday consumers and taxpayers with a horrible deal," the report reads.File...

Mutinous Russian mercenary fighters barrelled towards Moscow on Saturday after seizing a southern city overnight, with Russia's military firing on them from the air but seemingly incapable of slowing their lightning advance. Facing the first serious challenge to his grip on power of his 23-year rule, President Vladimir Putin vowed to crush an armed mutiny he compared to Russia's Civil War a century ago. The fighters of the Wagner private army run by former Putin ally Yevgeny Prigozhin were already most of the way to the capital, having captured the city of Rostov and set off on an 1,100 km...

On Thursday, police searched Laughton’s...

...“I spoke to the commanders in all directions last night. I appeal also to those who were deceptively pulled into the criminal adventure, pushed towards a serious crime of an armed mutiny. “Russia today is leading the most difficult war for its future, repelling the aggression of neo-Nazis and their handlers. Against us, the whole military, economical and information machines of the west are turned. We fight for the lives and security of our people. For our sovereignty and independence. The right to remain Russia, a state with 1,000 years of history ...What we’re facing is exactly internal betrayal. Extraordinary...

VIDEOMany people are a bit confused about the rebellion by Wagner Group leader Yevgeny Prigozhin. This video therefore reveals the shocking reason why Prigozhin and the Wagner Group are now heading to Moscow to take revenge against the hated Shoigu and Gerasimov. When you find out you will see that Prigozhin is absolutely right to be so enraged.

The crowd at the Faith and Freedom Coalition’s Road to Majority Policy conference went wild after North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson, a gubernatorial candidate in his state, emphatically endorsed former President Donald Trump’s 2024 presidential campaign.This nation needs a fighter, someone who is willing to go on to the world stage, walk in boldly, strongly, waving the American flag saying, ‘The Americans are here and we are in charge again.

Moscow is preparing for war and battening down the hatches as soldiers build outposts and military vehicles flood the streets ahead of the expected arrival of Russia's Wagner militia forces. Wagner chief Yevgney Prigozhin initiated a military coup against Putin overnight, which has seen the group take key cities and threaten the President, who called them 'traitors'. Putin addressed the Russian people on Saturday, warning that the military leader had 'stabbed him in the back', as Moscow prepares to enter into lockdown, with troops digging in in preparation to defend the city. Prigozhin and his feared 25,000-strong Wagner militia took...

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said an effort to impeach President Biden now lacking due process would be “dead on arrival” in the Senate. Graham said during a Friday appearance on “The Hill” on NewsNation that Republicans argued that Democrats did not give former President Trump the right to due process during the impeachment proceedings against him in 2019 and 2021, and he does not believe anyone should be impeached without a hearing being held.

The remnant of a dead star predicted to cannonball through the outskirts of the Solar System is going to do no such thing after all.On reexamination, a white dwarf star just 36 light-years from Earth named WD0810-353 has turned out to be pretty normal. Its only claim to strangeness is its powerful magnetic field, according to a team of astronomers led by John Landstreet of the Armagh Observatory & Planetarium in the UK.It's this magnetic field, the researchers say, that led scientists to misinterpret the trajectory of the star through the Milky Way galaxy...Nevertheless, WD0810-353 is interesting in and of...

The armed munity on the Kremlin led by mercenary boss Yevgeny Prigozhin highlights Russia’s “full-scale weakness,” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Saturday,, adding “no lie can hide” the “chaos” inside the country. “Russia’s weakness is obvious. Full-scale weakness,” Zelensky wrote on Twitter. “And the longer Russia keeps its troops and mercenaries on our land, the more chaos, pain, and problems it will have for itself later.”

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...

On Friday’s broadcast of NBC’s “MTP Now,” host Chuck Todd stated that the claims from whistleblowers about the handling of the Hunter Biden investigation “look pretty credible” but the claims — which include revelations about Hunter Biden’s business dealings in China and him using ties to his father, President Joe Biden, as leverage in these dealings in China — have “nothing to do with China,” and are just about what Hunter Biden did with his businesses. Todd said, “For the longest time, all this whistleblower talk, it was not clear whether there was there there. These transcripts, who these people...

State Senator Patricia Van Pelt (D-Chicago) collects pay and benefits to represent parts of Chicago's north and west sides in the General Assembly. She has a state-funded district office and state taxpayer-paid staff members. But Van Pelt herself doesn’t participate in the legislative part of her job anymore. Van Pelt refuses to do so, sources tell Chicago City Wire, and she refuses to resign so Senate President Don Harmon (D-Oak Park) can appoint a replacement. “Last year, she told (Harmon) she was going to do nothing this year, tell people she was having a medical procedure done, then resign. She...

French President Emmanuel Macron has suggested the imposition of a global taxation system in order to subsidise the green agenda to mitigate climate change. Speaking at the Summit for a New Global Financing Pact in Paris on Friday, Mr Macron argued that actions from individual governments would be insufficient to deal with the alleged armageddon set to descend upon the world and therefore a new international taxation framework should be established.

This isn't the first time astronomers have measured M92's age, but previous estimates relied on just one synthetic collection of stars. Comparing thousands of them reduced the uncertainty introduced by the assumptions baked into each one. The new technique reduced the uncertainty of the cluster age by about 50 percent, Ying says. The team found the cluster is 13.8 billion years old, give or take 750 million years. That's strikingly close to the best estimate of the age of the universe: a smidge over 13.8 billion years, plus or minus 24 million years, according to the Planck satellite's measurement of...

For the second time, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has looked for and failed to find a thick atmosphere on an exoplanet in on one of the most exciting planetary systems known. Astronomers report today that there is probably no tantalizing atmosphere on the planet TRAPPIST-1 c, just as they reported months ago for its neighbour TRAPPIST-1 b.There is still a chance that some of the five other planets in the TRAPPIST-1 system might have thick atmospheres containing geologically and biologically interesting compounds such as carbon dioxide, methane or oxygen. But the two planets studied so far seem to...
