By now any honest person will admit that the public health establishment–the NIH and the CDC in particular–lied to the American public and covered up the likely origin of COVID-19.The evidence for both is overwhelming and yet it still keeps piling up. By now I almost expect a recording of Anthony Fauci in a supervillain lair laughing maniacally at the stupidity of the plebs, while sharks swim around him in pools waiting to eat 007 while models in bikinis turn into solid gold, or something similar.The latest revelations come from the Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic, which has revealed...

As with any news coming out of Russia, there’s almost no telling what is true and what is not. What we do know for certain is that a former Naval officer and sub commander who Ukraine had accused of war crimes was killed this week while running through a park in Russia.A Russian naval captain who appeared on a Ukrainian blacklist of suspected war criminals was ambushed and executed by an assassin on his morning run.Stanislav Rzhitsky, 42, was shot four times in the back and chest with a Makarov pistol around 6 a.m. Monday in a park in the...

College COVID vaccine mandates remain some of the most coercive mandates ever declared. While most colleges have now rescinded their mandates, some colleges refuse to let go, and Santa Clara University in California is one of the most oppressive. In late April 2021, after most incoming freshmen had committed, SCU announced that all students were required to get COVID vaccines for fall enrollment or after full approval, whichever was later. Then by mid-summer, SCU announced that students would be required to receive the vaccine even if it remained authorized only for emergency (EUA) and despite the fact that the CA...

Washington, D.C. Newsroom, Jun 30, 2023 / 16:10 pm Legislation that bans most abortions in Indiana does not violate the state constitution’s right to privacy and can go into effect, according to a Friday ruling from the Indiana Supreme Court, but litigation against the law is still ongoing. The state law, which the Republican majority passed last summer, prohibits most abortions during all stages of pregnancy. There is an exception for cases of rape and incest, which will be legal up to 10 weeks after fertilization, as well as an exception for the life of the mother up to 20...

Some people think I am exaggerating when I point out that Democrats are moving to normalize pedophilia.“It can’t be!” “Nobody is that evil!”Is it hyperbole? No. Is it perhaps a misrepresentation or a misunderstanding on my part?Absolutely not.Democrats want to sexualize children, and in the past week have been attacking opponents of child sex trafficking and calling us conspiracy theorists, and now the California Public Safety Committee voted down a bill, on a party-line vote, that would have enhanced penalties for child sex trafficking by making it a “serious felony,” which is a step up from merely being illegal.JUST IN:...

On Monday, President Joe Biden played his cards. He’s all bluff, no aces. Biden is the defendant in a lawsuit that accuses him and his team of, in federal District Court Judge Terry Doughty’s words, “the most massive attack against free speech in the United States.” Yet the appeal Biden filed Monday is devoid of even one convincing argument in his own defense. Count on the appeal to go nowhere. Biden’s been caught red-handed violating the Constitution. On July 4, Doughty announced that the evidence produced so far indicates the president is operating a vast, illegal censorship scheme to muzzle...

As the UK Covid inquiry continues, we must not forget lockdowns failed and destroyed the lives of millions.. America stands for freedom, yet we had one of the most acquiescent populations in the world during the pandemic. There were protests about the lockdowns, if you remember, in the UK, in Spain, in Italy, in France, in Germany and in the Netherlands. Generally speaking in America there was a shocking lack of pushback. America is the beacon of freedom in the world and if America does not push for freedom, it’s over; Not just in the US, it’s over everywhere. The...

Okay, that’s not exactly the headline the Post used but it’s close: “‘Racist,’ ‘grooming’: Why parents are trying to ban so many picture books.” The article is of course written as if the people who would complain about children’s picture books are all wild-eyed bigots.The discontent with children’s picture books overwhelmingly centers on titles with LGBTQ characters and storylines, which were targeted in 75 percent of such challenges, The Post found. The top motive, cited in 64 percent of the picture-book complaints, was a wish to prevent children from reading about lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, nonbinary and queer lives. The...

The story of that whole Wagner group insurrection a couple of weeks ago certainly disappeared from the headlines pretty quickly, didn’t it? The few updates we were given by the Kremlin and Russian state television kept changing. One of the biggest questions was where Yevgeny Prigozhin wound up. We were first told that he had been pardoned and was going to be staying in Belarus. But then we were told he had returned to Russia. We next heard he’d never actually gone to Belarus, but he’d had a meeting with Putin to sort things out. The one thing we do...

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...
