In the most recently exposed Biden administration scheme to combat misinformation, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) colluded with a compromised Ukrainian intelligence agency to censor the speech of Americans. The federal agency responsible for protecting the nation against terrorists, violent street gangs and serial killers joined forces with the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU), which is widely known to be infiltrated by Russian-aligned forces, to take down the authentic social media accounts of Americans. This includes a verified U.S. State Department profile and those belonging to American journalists. Interestingly, accounts targeted for removal by the SBU and FBI criticized...

Mom of 6-month-old may lose vision in eye after couple attacked in SF

It was a couple of years ago when MSNBC's Joy Reid and NBC News warned us that those "radicalized parent activists" who were "targeting school boards" were tied up with QAnon. This was back when parents protested the teaching of critical race theory in schools. Liberals assured us that critical race theory wasn't taught in schools, and yet seemed really upset about the idea of it being banned. If it's not happening, who cares? It was a few months later that the National School Boards Association asked the Biden administration to look into angry parents as "domestic terrorism" and "hate...

Outraged Italians are groping themselves in unsettling videos in protest of a judge’s ruling that unwanted touching that lasts less than 10 seconds isn’t a crime. The controversial ruling resulted in the acquittal of a man who admitted to fondling a school girl, but argued he’d only been joking. Men and women alike in Italy have taken to Instagram and TikTok to post the clips, in which they stare stone-faced at the camera while groping their breasts and chests alongside a timer counting down from 10 seconds. In others, they continuously caress themselves for nine seconds, only to stop just...

Elsewhere, Republicans have sounded cautious notes about the Biden allegations. Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), the ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, acknowledged on Wednsday that Gal Luft’s indictment could undermine portions of the House GOP case against the Bidens. “If his activities as an unregistered foreign agent go to his credibility, if they are accurate, yeah,” Graham told HuffPost. Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah), meanwhile, said hasn’t seen any evidence yet of a link between Hunter Biden’s “unsavory” business dealings and Joe Biden, which some House Republicans have alleged.

A top Russian general stationed in Ukraine said that he was dismissed from his post after complaining that the Russian defense ministry was providing inadequate support to his troops. General Ivan Popov, one of the most senior Russian officers involved with the war, said he raised concerns about “the mass deaths and injuries” of his “brothers” from Ukrainian fire. “I also raised a number of other problems and expressed it all at the highest level frankly and extremely harshly,” Popov said in a voice note published to a Russian lawmaker’s Telegram channel. After airing his grievances, Popov said he was...

An attorney for Ray Epps, a man seen on video wearing a Trump hat during the January 6 riot, says that his client has been informed by federal law enforcement officials that they intend to charge him in connection with the events of that day. The revelation was made in a lawsuit that Epps filed against Fox News on Wednesday that accused the network and former host Tucker Carlson of defaming him. Epps has long been accused by many of being an undercover federal agent who instigated some of the events of that day. He has strongly denied being a...

For years, gun-grabbing politicians in Massachusetts have been chipping away at the Second Amendment, imposing some of the harshest gun-control in the country. Now, it appears they want to do away with your Constitutional rights altogether. This week, Massachusetts politicians put forth HD 4420, “an act modernizing firearm laws.” This massive piece of legislation re-writes gun laws in the Commonwealth and imposes unprecedented gun-control. Every NRA member and gun rights supporter in Massachusetts is urged to contact lawmakers now and tell them to oppose HD 4420. HD 4420 leaves no stone unturned when it comes to restricting your Second Amendment...

On June 28, 2023, King Charles III and London Mayor Sadiq Khan activated a “climate clock” with the warning that there are 6 years and 24 days left to limit global warming before it brings doom upon the world. Remarkably, the king included minutes and seconds in his countdown to the ruin of the world due to climate change. Despite the lengthy history of planet Earth, King Charles III apparently knows to the second how much time we have left before the doom of civilization due to global warming. Amazing! He emphasizes “global renewables,” however, the means of capturing such...

BREVARD COUNTY, Fla. - A Florida man is behind bars after a road rage fit that included intentionally ramming into cars, striking them with a tire iron and even throwing a barbecue at deputies, the Brevard County Sheriff's Office said Tuesday. The incidents occurred Tuesday morning in Cocoa, near the intersection of School Street and Bay Avenue, officials said. Raymond Hofmann is in custody and faces several charges, including resisting arrest, aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer and other charges relating to his alleged road rage fit. Hofmann reportedly parked his Chevrolet Tahoe in the middle of the street...

A Protestant denomination that claims to follow Christ passed a pro-abortion resolution this week that describes aborting unborn babies as “health care” and pro-life laws as “sexual violence.” The United Church of Christ General Synod overwhelmingly passed the resolution “Proclaiming Abortion as Healthcare” in a 611-24 vote, according to the denomination website. UCC leaders said they created the resolution in response to the U.S. Supreme Court ruling Dobbs v. Jackson, which overturned Roe v. Wade and began allowing laws to protect unborn babies from abortion again. Currently, 15 states are enforcing laws that protect unborn babies from abortion, and more...

The Justice Department is appealing the 18-year-prison sentence handed down for Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, as well as other far-right extremists' punishments that were shorter than what prosecutors had sought, according to court papers filed Wednesday. While Rhodes received a lengthy sentence for seditious conspiracy and other convictions, the 18-year term was below the recommended range under federal guidelines and less than the 25 years the Justice Department had asked for in one of the most serious cases to go to trial in the Capitol attack. Defendants routinely appeal...

In a chilling turn of events reminiscent of Cold War-style cloak and dagger tactics, former Russian submarine commander Stanislav Rzhitsky was gunned down during an early Monday morning run in the Russian city of Krasnodar. According to the New York Post, Russian authorities believe that Rzhitsky’s killer used the popular Strava fitness app to track the ex-captain’s jogging routes, leveraging the power of digital tools to a fatal end. The 42-year-old Rzhitsky, was murdered near Krasnodar’s Olympus Arena shortly after dawn. The assassin shot him four times using a Makarov pistol. Rzhitsky succumbed to his wounds at the scene. Rzhitsky’s...

United Nations expert and renowned investigative journalist William F. Jasper explains the danger of a recent UN-commissioned report that calls on governments to threaten and punish religious leaders and organizations that don’t go along with LGBTQ orthodoxy. While many may be tempted to shrug off the report as a toothless statement of intent, history shows that the United Nations has a way of getting its way. The sustainable development climate restrictions affecting the lives of Americans today is a solid example of a UN agenda that now affects the lives of everyone living in the West.

Expanding voting rights to non-citizens in municipal and mayoral elections has become a prominent issue in the United States, particularly for Democrats. Advocates argue that it promotes inclusivity and allows those who contribute to their communities but lack full citizenship to have a voice in local decision-making.At the forefront of this movement is the implementation of Automatic Voter Registration (AVR) systems, which have been implemented in states like Massachusetts. However, critics have raised concerns about whether AVR could inadvertently register non-citizens to vote.Massachusetts, in particular, has been expanding voting rights for several years. As the state prepares for nearly 200,000...

Representative Zoe Lofgren (D-CA) said Wednesday on CNN’s “OutFront” that the Federal Bureau of Investigation had been “too deferential” when dealing with former President Donald Trump. When asked about House Republicans criticism of FBI Director Christopher Wray during his testimony before the House Judiciary Committee, Lofgren said, “It’s meant to undercut the rule of law and really our system of government. The Republicans are more interested in what they consider a win than protecting the Constitution and civil order. It’s very distressing.”

Ray Epps has become one of the most infamous figures surrounding the unrest of January 6th. For years, many have wondered why Epps, who was caught on video directing people to enter the Capitol Building, avoided arrest while others who seemingly did far less were arrested and charged. He also sent a text in which he claimed to have “orchestrated” the events.The theories surrounding that have led Epps to file a lawsuit against Fox News, claiming that he was defamed by Tucker Carlson. In a shocking turn of events, though, the lawsuit claims, as part of its case, that the...

The Biden administration, the media, Democrats, and Republicans are all either willfully ignorant or blithely unaware of the looming economic crisis that's about to hit. Inflation is part of the problem, but we're going beyond job creation reports and the fallout from Silicon Valley Bank. It's a crisis that could cause all the dominoes to fall, and it doesn't help that we have a president who gets outright exhausted after a few days of work. A looming real estate crisis threatens to nuke the whole system. The bleeding has already begun, and it could take decades for some "superstar cities"...
