Bidenomics is where the Attorney General Garland gives Hunter Biden blanket amnesty and arrests Biden’s Presidential opponent. Welcome to the United Venezuelan States of America!e The new regime talking points are out – namely that Fitch downgraded the US credit rating from AAA to AA+ on Tuesday because of MAGA Republicans and all things Trump. But while Fitch cited “the expected fiscal deterioration over the next three years, a high and growing general government debt burden, and the erosion of governance relative to ‘AA’ and ‘AAA’ rated peers” as reasons for the downgrade, the Biden administration is of course blaming...

Dem admin invests $3 billion into programs that pursue Golden State's failed 'Housing First' policies ********************************************************** California's homeless population has skyrocketed since the state adopted housing policies that critics say enable drug users and fail to treat the mentally ill. Now, the Biden administration is spending more than $3 billion to replicate those policies. President Joe Biden's Department of Housing and Urban Development in July announced its investment in so-called Housing First programs, which subsidize rent costs for those living on the street but do not impose drug or mental health treatment requirements. California adopted those programs in 2016 and...

On July 28, Fujian Province was struck by the year's most powerful typhoon, which brought with it strong winds and torrential rainfall that swept across the region. The province faced an unprecedented deluge, leading to severe flooding and presenting significant challenges to local authorities and residents.

The El Dorado County Board of Supervisors’ decision to designate July American Christian Heritage Month, which sparked opposition from some residents, has now drawn protest from a national organization that promotes the separation of church and state.

Hunter Biden left his multimillion-dollar Venice Beach, California, rental home in a state of 'disarray and disrepair' and owing approximately $80,000 in outstanding rent, DailyMail.com can reveal. The scandal-mired First Son rented the sprawling property on the edge of the Grand Canal two years ago and moved in with his then ten-month old son, Beau, and second wife, Melissa, 37, in February 2021. According to one well-placed source, 'Hunter and Melissa were horrible tenants. Not only did they stiff the owner for months of rent, they left the house in terrible condition.'

One of the most prominent Christian YouTube channels right now is Redeemed Zoomer who stands at a whopping 125K subs on the platform. His most popular content is animated explainers on Christianity. However, he is also working on an ambitious plan to save apostate denominations. Redeemed Zoomer believes that protestants can reconquer these denominations by outlasting the heretics. Thus, the more beautiful church buildings in more prominent real estate will be restored to Bible teaching. On Conversations That Matter, Redeemed Zoomer made a compelling case for his Reconquista strategy, and he is active in this effort in the Presbyterian Church...

A 20-year-old man was hit with a slew of charges Wednesday after crashing a stolen car into multiple vehicles and injuring 10 pedestrians during a chaotic police chase in Midtown Manhattan. Kyle Fernandez is facing charges including reckless endangerment, possession of stolen property, operating a motor vehicle while on drugs, resisting arrest, and others in connection to Tuesday’s mayhem — which ended when good Samaritans tackled the fleeing driver to the ground and held him down until cops arrived. The madness unfolded during the evening rush hour near the corner of Lexington Avenue and East 42nd Street, just steps away...

Sen. Ted Cruz , R-Texas, said Wednesday that former President Trump's indictment was an attempt by Democrats to boost their chances in the 2024 election. “It is not subtle, and it's not complicated. This is straight out election interference by the Biden Department of Justice," Cruz said on the Wednesday episode of his podcast, "Verdict with Ted Cruz." “My biggest sentiment was that it was thoroughly underwhelming. There's very little there there," he said about contents of the indictment itself. “This is a political indictment, brought by a political prosecutor, working for a political attorney general working for a political...

The first several weeks of Ukraine’s long-awaited counteroffensive have not been kind to the Ukrainian troops who were trained and armed by the United States and its allies. Equipped with advanced American weapons and heralded as the vanguard of a major assault, the troops became bogged down in dense Russian minefields under constant fire from artillery and helicopter gunships. Units got lost. One unit delayed a nighttime attack until dawn, losing its advantage. Another fared so badly that commanders yanked it off the battlefield altogether. The complicated training in Western maneuvers has given the Ukrainians scant solace in the face...

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) is facing backlash after commenting on the latest indictment against former President Donald Trump, admittedly without reading it first.Unlike his somewhat aloof and sarcastic reaction to Trump’s indictment at the hands of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, DeSantis opted to react quickly to the news of Special Counsel Jack Smith announcing that a grand jury in Washington, D.C., had indicted Trump on charges relating to the January 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol.“As President, I will end the weaponization of government, replace the FBI Director, and ensure a single standard of justice for all...

Like a younger version of Kat Kerr before she started smoking the electric lettuce or eating the devil’s jambalaya, Emma Stark is an up-and-coming prophetess from Ireland. She founded the Glasgow Prophetic Center with her husband in 2019 and describes herself as “a prophet who hears from God’, ’a traveling lecturer in spirituality’ and ’a church pastor. We featured her in a post last year, after she stated there are grooming demons out there whose goal is to use lassos to tie Christians down in order to prevent them from reaching their full potential, and then after she claimed one...

The latest indictment against former President Donald Trump has “awoken the world” to the corruption that has taken place over the last three years, the Republican frontrunner said on social media on Wednesday, thanking Americans for their support.“THANK YOU TO EVERYONE!!! I HAVE NEVER HAD SO MUCH SUPPORT ON ANYTHING BEFORE,” Trump wrote in an all-caps post on Truth Social Wednesday morning.He continued:THIS UNPRECEDENTED INDICTMENT OF A FORMER (HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL!) PRESIDENT, & THE LEADING CANDIDATE, BY FAR, IN BOTH THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AND THE 2024 GENERAL ELECTION, HAS AWOKEN THE WORLD TO THE CORRUPTION, SCANDAL, & FAILURE THAT HAS TAKEN...

Americans' cash reserves have experienced a boom bust cycle in the last few years, and the latest data spells bad news. Americans now hold a record level of credit card debt, according to recent data from the Federal Reserve. It comes as they see their pandemic savings and cushions depleted, and as the labor market cools from its red-hot post-vaccine highs. It shows just how much direct stimulus spending bolstered the economy and created a group of workers accustomed to support that likely won't come back — and it may spell even further economic doom as student loan bills get...

It was a rough month for FOX News. For anyone who’s been paying any attention to what a post-Tucker Carlson landscape would look like at Fox News, two things are pretty apparent: That landscape is pretty barren. The suddenly-beleaguered news network has lost so many viewers, its stock was downgraded. Fox News is trying anything — or perhaps flailing about — in response to hemorrhaging viewers, including some shakeups to its primetime lineup. Following all of the recent turmoil FOX News has lost the trust of American conservatives. Only one-third of self-described conservatives trust FOX News the most. They may...

The song was written and sung by Pete Ham and produced by George Harrison, who plays some of the slide guitar parts of the song along with Ham. The record also features Leon Russell on piano. As the song was unfinished at the time Harrison left the Badfinger album to produce the Concert for Bangladesh, the final mix was done by Todd Rundgren, who took over Straight Up after Harrison's departure

As space travel becomes more common, so does the possibility that someone might die along the way. Houston: There's no question that sending human beings to space is an extraordinarily difficult and perilous proposition. Since human space exploration began just over 60 years ago, 20 people have died – 14 in the NASA space shuttle tragedies of 1986 and 2003, three cosmonauts during the 1971 Soyuz 11 mission, and three astronauts in the Apollo 1 launch pad fire in 1967. Given how complicated human spaceflight is, it's actually remarkable how few people have lost their lives so far. But NASA...

Former President Bill Clinton was spotted grabbing a bite to eat at Papa Al's Pizza in Newtown on Sunday. According to Dritan Hodza, a chef at Papa Al's, the former president came into the restaurant with a security detail and ordered a couple of slices of pizza and garlic knots. Hodza said that Clinton was kind and had a "smiley face" during his visit.

One major claim that Mr. Smith cites as an example of Trump peddling “false assertions” is a statement from the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) that there was zero evidence of voting systems being compromised in the 2020 election. This is where Smith runs into major trouble according to Trending Politics. The claim in the indictment is contradicted by the Department of Justice itself. Just the News reported back in November 2021 that Biden’s DOJ charged two Iranian hackers who successfully hacked into a state computer election system. The hackers, Seyyed Mohammad Hosein Musa Kazemi and Sajjad Kashian, stole...

There have been at least six times now where new evidence was released implicating the Biden Crime Family and then President Trump is indicted by the Biden regime the next day. Trump was hit with 4 counts for challenging the fraudulent 2020 election: Conspiracy to defraud the United States, conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding, and conspiracy against rights. In his 45-page indictment of retread January 6 Committee talking points and misinformation, Jack Smith revealed on Tuesday that Mike Pence was taking secret notes from conversations with Trump. On page 33...

President Biden's administration is placing the blame for the United States' drop in credit rating on former President Donald Trump and the Jan. 6 riots. Fitch announced Tuesday it has officially downgraded the United States' long-term foreign-currency issuer default rating to "AA+" from "AAA," saying the downgrade "reflects the expected fiscal deterioration" and the nation's heavy debt burden. An administration official claimed to FOX Business on Wednesday that the underlying model was AAA until former President Donald Trump's administration. The administration official claimed the model dipped in the Trump-era and despite efforts since 2020, Fitch's change in consideration on a...
