Here is my latest release, titled "Falling Sky." I sang and played bass and drums on it. Mixing and mastering was done in my studio in Sicily. The very talented Monster Mike Fitzgerald from Rhode Island played guitar on it. The tune is about the issue of "elites" instilling fear throughout the Western world as a method of softening us up for the implementation of their self-enriching and demonic agendas. To hell with all that I say. . . Buckle up, and thanks for watching and listening.Falling Sky

Bidenomics strikes! Or as Klaus Schwab and the World Economic Forum sing “I’m going to make (the US) mine!” Despite the open borders where millions of low wage workers and parasites pour across into the US, we still see 1-unit housing starts plunged -7.4% YoY in June as The Fed continues tightening. Multifamily starts actually fell worse than 1 unit starts. 5+ unit starts were down -11.56% MoM. Multfamily permits were down -13.52%. And it just isn’t little girls that Biden is creepy about (like the family member we all keep our kids away from), Biden is creepy towards adult...

U.S. special climate envoy John Kerry concluded his flying three-day trip to Beijing on Wednesday with his reported admission no agreement with China, the world’s single largest producer of greenhouse gases, has been reached on further actions to slash carbon pollution. Politico reports Kerry disclosed “it’s going to take a little bit more work to break new ground” in negotiations between the world’s two biggest greenhouse gas polluters, with more talks about further talks ahead.

Caviezel, who previously played Jesus Christ in Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ, is also drawing attention to the film in other ways. For years, he's been a prominent promoter of the false, violent QAnon conspiracy theory — specifically, the baseless claim that an international cabal of elites is abusing and killing children to extract a substance called adrenochrome. These wild claims have become deeply enmeshed with narratives about child trafficking in recent years, from the QAnon predecessor Pizzagate conspiracy theory, which falsely alleged a pizza parlor in Washington, D.C., was home to a child sex ring, to false...

When the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg accepted a $1 million prize from a liberal billionaire’s foundation, she pledged to pass the money to a list of designated charities. Four years later, it is unclear where Ginsburg sent that money—an ambiguity that experts say raises conflict of interest concerns. The Berggruen Institute, a private foundation founded by billionaire investor Nicolas Berggruen, awarded Ginsburg its annual $1 million Philosophy & Culture award during a swanky star-studded event in December 2019. At the time, ethics experts raised red flags over Ginsburg’s acceptance of the prize, noting that the bounty far...

The Killing of Common Sense Covid was a killer. The evidence is clear. SARS-CoV-2 was a scientifically devised virus designed to kill. Its victims were many. The science in question here, though, is social science. And the intended victim was common sense. Covid expanded our daily vocabulary. “Distancing,” “tracking,” and “masking” – above the nose – all became common parlance. As did “lockdown,” one of the most ominous additions to our vernacular. Its meaning was both clear and unreal at once. You could stroll on the sidewalk but not in the park. Because of Covid. You could shop at box...

PHOENIX (3TV/CBS 5) — Arizona was one of seven states where so-called “fake electors” signed paperwork that falsely claimed former President Donald Trump won the 2020 election. Their hope at the time was that then-Vice President Mike Pence would recognize them when the electoral college met to certify the results. Of course, the events of Jan. 6, 2021, backfired and now fake electors across the country, including here, have attracted the attention of the Department of Justice.

Since Putin’s tanks crossed into Ukrainian territory, three options have been on the table for how this war would end:... victory for one side or the other, a frozen conflict or a negotiated settlement. The long-planned counter-offensive, has run into several problems.. It is incredibly tough going for the Ukrainians. They lack the air cover and advanced jets to protect their ground forces from Russian attack helicopters and fighters. Their soldiers, meanwhile must negotiate miles of minefields, tank-traps and then ultimately the heavily dug Russian trench networks. The variable that isn’t on their side is time. In war, time is...

A federal judge Wednesday rejected former President Trump’s request for a new trial after a jury found him liable for sexually abusing and defaming writer E. Jean Carroll. U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan, an appointee of former President Clinton, said the jury’s verdict was not seriously erroneous or a serious miscarriage of justice, rejecting Trump’s claim that the $5 million in damages he was ordered to pay was excessive and other arguments. “There is no basis for disturbing the jury’s sexual assault damages,” Kaplan wrote in the 59-page ruling. “And Mr. Trump’s arguments with respect to the defamation damages are...

Country Music Television has pulled a music video for the song “Try That in a Small Town,” by the country music superstar Jason Aldean, which was filmed at the site of a lynching, amid accusations that its lyrics and message are offensive.

It’s good to be a lying government bureaucrat. And Anthony Fauci was very good at being one. A liar, I mean. And I guess that skill is as important to being a truly powerful and effective bureaucrat as any other. Not that all bureaucrats are liars; it just helps you get ahead. Fauci is something of an enigma, being the public health equivalent of J. Edgar Hoover. Hoover was head of the federal law enforcement apparatus for 48 years, both before it was called the FBI and until 1972. Fauci wasn’t head of the National Institutes of Allergies and Infectious...

Sheryl Crow joined the conversation about Jason Aldean’s controversial new song, “Try That in a Small Town,” saying he should know better. Aldean, 46, has been accused of promoting violence with his latest song, which includes the inflammatory lyrics: “Got a gun that my granddad gave me / They say one day they’re gonna round up / Well, that ^%^% might fly in the city, good luck / Try that in a small town.” As a small-town girl herself, Missouri native Crow, 61, called out the country singer for putting out false impressions.

A new study claims red states like Florida and Texas are the worst in the nation to "live and work" despite these states leading the nation in net migration. CNBC's annual "Top States for Business" report broke down its rankings based on each state's commitment to "Life, Health and Inclusion." While Texas and Florida led the nation as best for business, the outlet slapped the red states for inadequate policies supporting abortion, child care, the LGBTQ community, and voting rights. Texas ranked as worst in the nation to "live and work", along with Oklahoma, South Carolina, Arkansas and Florida. The...

Republicans are gearing up for a competitive primary as they look to unseat Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown in next year’s closely watched Ohio Senate race. Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose (R) became the latest Republican to announce his candidacy earlier this week, joining a crowded field that includes businessman Bernie Moreno and state Sen. Matt Dolan (R). Brown, a third-term incumbent, is seen as one of the most vulnerable Senate Democrats up for reelection next year, and the race could be key to deciding which party wins control of the upper chamber in the 2024 election. “It’s going to...

Large magpie's nest made of anti-bird spikes in Antwerp, Belgium. Credit: Auke-Florian Hiemstra/Naturalis Naturalist Auke-Florian Hiemstra has seen a lot of bird nests, but none were quite like the one he spotted in a photograph from a patient in a Belgian hospital. This nest, high in a sugar maple in the hospital’s courtyard, was massive—and looked like metal. “It just was this very big ball of metallic, nasty bird spikes,” Hiemstra says. On closer inspection, he realized a Eurasian Magpie (Pica pica) had built the two-foot-wide nest with materials that included some 1,500 spikes of the type cities often use...
