    [snip] It’s the story of a murder that took place in Portland. Her name was Rachael Abraham. She’d dated a man named Mohamed Osman Adan. Adan was violent. "The beatings escalated after Rachael and Mo split. He would break in after midnight, the girls sleeping through his punching Rachael, choking her, telling her she was going to die. One night, he put a gun to her head. She was still shaking when the Portland, Oregon, police got there and told her she could request a no-contact order. “When I told him I was leaving him, he told me that he...

    Former Vice President Mike Pence, a candidate for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that former President Donald Trump and his lawyers asked him to “reject” the 2020 presidential vote. Anchor Dana Bash said, “I’m sure you’ve heard the former president’s lawyers saying that he, quote, ultimately asked only that you pause in counting the electoral ballots. I want to be clear. Did the former president ask you to pause or did he at any point ask you to overturn the election and keep him as president?” Pence said, “Well, you can look...

    VIDEOI thought that I had seen every Ray Epps video in existence due to extensive research on him over the past couple of years. However, I was surprised (actually shocked) to find this newly surfaced video of Ray Epps in what appears to be an interview with him on January 6, 2021 shortly after the J6 Fedsurrection. In this video, Epps blames the violence on ANTIFA. Of course, he does not mention anything about the possibility of undercover Feds since that would be like pointing the finger at himself. Epps acted as if he were more of a passive bystander...

    Maria Bartiromo went on FOX and Friends Weekend to discuss her upcoming show this morning. Bartiromo announced her guests and then made a prediction on upcoming indictments against President Trump. Maria Bartiromo: I will also tell you that all of the lawmakers I spoke with over the weekend, and many of them are on board they want an impeachment inquiry started. They believe that a Georgia indictment is coming in two weeks. So I assume the DOJ is waiting for more evidence of things to come out on Joe Biden and the Biden Family taking money in and then they...

    I was a press secretary in the US Senate in 2006, and I smoked. I’d step outside for a cigarette from time to time and then Senator Obama, also a smoker, would come walking from the Capitol having a smoke and would finish it with us other smokers. Like you would with anyone, I would just shoot the breeze with him. It didn’t happen often, Senators have busy schedules. But he’d walk outside from the Capitol to the office buildings sometimes rather than use the tunnels for the same reason I did – because you wanted to have a smoke...

    ......It’s human nature to find something about yourself that you’re proud of. Many have several things; everyone isn’t Tony Stark, but most people could come up with a list of accomplishments and things they value about themselves besides the suit they wear daily particularly their skin color. When it comes to white supremacists and white nationalists, it seems they’re suffering from low self-esteem. They see others as taking something that belongs to them. Most have jobs, perhaps not the careers they hoped for, but many are employed. Some might be rich, determined to hold onto their possessions, or not be...

    Representative Jamie Raskin (D-MD) said Sunday on NBC’s Meet the Press” that the argument that former President Donald Trump did not break laws and was only expressing his First Amendment rights in the days after the 2020 election is a “deranged argument.” Discussing the January 6 indictment, Raskin said, “A technical violation of the Constitution is a violation of the Constitution. The Constitution in six different places opposes insurrection and makes that a grievous constitutional event. Our constitution is designed to stop people from trying to overthrow elections and trying to overthrow the government, but in any event, there’s a...

    Well, they weren’t going to start singing now. It’s four matches at the World Cup and four mostly-silent national anthems for the U.S. Women’s National Team after the music stopped at the Round of 16 against Sweden. Vlatko Andonovski made a few changes to his starting 11 against the Swedes, and a couple more players than usual sang along with “The Star Spangled Banner” while the rest stood quietly. Alex Morgan, Julie Ertz and Lindsey Horan were again amongst the five who sung, along with Trinity Rodman and Emily Fox. The coaching staff was again quiet. The Swedish team, meanwhile,...

Eleven Russian and Chinese ships neared the Aleutian Islands off the coast of Alaska earlier this week near the maritime boundary Russia shares with the US, but the fleets never entered US waters, according to The Wall Street Journal.

    ...The firebrand Kentucky Senator just handed over an “official criminal referral” for Fauci, and now the bureaucrat may be forced to lawyer up. Senator Paul announced the referral earlier this week, citing an email from February 2020 that he says proves Dr. Fauci lied to Congress during a hearing about his alleged use of U.S. taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research – the process of intentionally making a virus more deadly and contagious..

    Throughout the United States, it takes three times as many hours of training to become a nail technician, a barber, or a plumber as it does to become a police officer. Finland, Australia, Denmark, and Germany – countries with far less crime and a fraction of American gun violence – spend dramatically more to prepare officers before sending them off into the streets. Finland, for instance, provides police cadets with 5,500 hours of training, nearly 14 times the minimum 408 training hours required by the state police board in Georgia. Highly trained law enforcement officers, studies consistently show, are better...

    Public college administrators 2,700 miles apart are trying to escape legal responsibility for what some courts are calling potential viewpoint discrimination against campus chapters of the same nationwide conservative group. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals made that harder for California's Clovis Community College Thursday by refusing to moot the First Amendment lawsuit against several officials by former students in its Young Americans for Freedom chapter. The question of mootness was brushed aside by the court, because even though the college being sued rescinded their "Flyer Policy" at issue, the matter was capable of repetition yet avoiding judicial review....
