    I apologize and take accountability for my actions, they were uncalled for. My very worst moment was captured on video. Although the memes have been amusing, the flipside has been cruel. I’m thankful for my friends and family for supporting me through this. This experience has been life-altering and I hope to do good from it and promote positive mental health. Stay tuned!

    A rural community in Michigan has hailed a 'huge victory' after a Chinese-owned industrial firm backed out of buying local farmland. Residents of the idyllic Green Charter Township, around 50 miles east of Lake Michigan, say they were 'bullied' into accepting the takeover, but refused to do so. Gotion, a company that 'pledges allegiance' to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), did, however, complete the purchase of 260 acres of derelict industrial land in the township and 10 acres of disused farmland last week. It comes as data shows Chinese firms now own more than $2billion worth of US farmland, up...

    This week a court sentenced Joshua and Kelly Ziminski to 20 months in prison for burglary and robbery with threat of force charges that they pleaded guilty to in May. Other charges were dropped in exchange for a plea deal, according to Fox 6. In the heat of the 2020 riots in Kenosha, Wisconsin, Joshua Ziminski fired a "warning shot" just before Kyle Rittenhouse shot three men in self-defense. Ziminski was out of bail for his involvement in the riots when he and his wife went on the crime spree that earned them 7 felony charges.

    The TV studio Desilu was founded in 1950 by Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz, which you can probably tell by the name. The famous performing couple initially pitched a TV adaptation of the marriage-based radio sitcom "My Favorite Husband" to the execs at CBS, but that show eventually mutated into "I Love Lucy," more explicitly sold as a vehicle for Ball. To this day, "I Love Lucy" remains one of the most popular sitcoms of all time, and every modern comedy show contains traces of its DNA. The series ran for 180 episodes over six seasons, ending its run in...

    Your first question after reading the headline is … why would she even be considered in the first place, right? Well she was. The NFL was reportedly considering Lizzo for the halftime show at the Super Bowl in 2024. However, that is reportedly no longer the case. According to reports, Lizzo has been eliminated from consideration at the Super Bowl, due to troubling reports of her behavior with her staffers.

    According to the Washington Post, many citizens of Ukraine are adopting a darker mood about the war with Russia, and national unity is beginning to fray. The change in sentiment comes as Kiev’s spring counteroffensive fails to retake significant territory despite surging casualties. “Ukrainians, much in need of good news, are simply not getting any,” the Washington Post reported Thursday. One Ukrainian, Alla Blyzniuk, interviewed by the outlet, said, “[before] people were united.” Now, she described, a sense of collective “disappointment.” The sense of despair is driven by massive casualties in Kiev’s counteroffensive. Blyzniuk said that most soldiers sent to...

    With his interview with Tucker Carlson, Former Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund discussed why he had issue with Ray Epps and why they didn't investigate further with him. "My concern with that, now looking at it from chief of police point of view, is you have somebody down by the old executive office building on the fifth, the day before January sixth. Talking to a group of people, about we have to get into the building, we have to get into the building. The next day to see him at what's called the Pennsylvania Avenue gate, it's one of the...

    CNN reported Sunday that lawyers for the 2020 presidential campaign of President Donald Trump received a “written invitation” to inspect voting machines and software in Georgia’s Coffee County — though that is not how CNN’s headline portrayed it. In the CNN story, Trump is described as being implicated in a “voting system breach,” implying that he had personally hacked into voting systems, or that his campaign had done so. But the “breach” happened after the election, and appeared authorized. CNN’s lead story on Sunday is titled: “Messages show Trump’s team behind voting system breach.” The article itself connects the “breach”...

    Today was a not very good, horrible day for the DeMeatball in Iowa. While President Trump was swamped with people cheering and trying to get an autograph, the absentee governor from the Sunshine state was running the gauntlet through crowds shouting, “we love Trump” and calling the lying liar who lies, “pudding fingers.” lol 😂The optics were so bad, Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds, a DeSantis supporter and campaign advocate, had to beg people in attendance to stop yelling at the sensitive guy from Florida, and be “Iowa nice.” However, while the GOP may define “Iowa nice” as the powdered wig...

    It was thirty years ago when the words of Habakkuk 1 seemed to leap off the page with relevance to the evil I saw around me. As I think back to that time in light of today’s world, I wonder what alarmed me. The wickedness, government corruption, deception, and lawlessness are exponentially worse now than three decades ago, far beyond what I could’ve even imagined just ten years ago. Below are the words of Habakkuk 1:2-4, which have not changed: “O Lord, how long shall I cry for help, and you will not hear? Or cry to you ‘Violence!’ and...

    The GOP presidential hopeful who kicked off his campaign with a declaration of 10 foundational TRUTHs beginning with “God is real” recently strayed from truth when he declared that homosexuality is “hardwired” at birth and that the burgeoning number of transgendered individuals are folks who are “really just gay.” The claims were made by candidate Vivek Ramaswamy during a recent “All-In Podcast.” “The gay rights movement was predicated on the idea, which I’m quite sympathetic to, that the sex of the person that you’re attracted to is hardwired on the day you’re born,” Ramaswamy said. His assertion that homosexuality is...
