We talk a lot about how woke Disney-owned Marvel is, but it's biggest competitor DC isn't learning any lessons Marvel's failures. In fact, they seem to be going all out to go out of business first. The bi-sexual Superman comic they launched lasted all of one year. Then there were the shameless diversity covers that essentially equated Hispanic people with food. Remarkably, Dr. Jill Biden's breakfast tacos didn't make the cut. Sorry, San Antonio! And now, DC is trying again by introducing a new gay-Green Lantern title called Green Lantern: Alan Scott. And if turning another superhero into a flaming...

Police in Washington, D.C., are searching for the armed suspects who allegedly stole three French bulldogs out for a walk with their owner. According to a police report, around 4 p.m. Tuesday, the victim reported he was walking in an alley in the 5200 block of East Capitol Street, when three suspects jumped out of a blue minivan and approached him, all armed with handguns and rifles. The victim stated that he assumed the suspects were going after his wallet or cellphone.

The Senate passed House Speaker Mike Johnson’s (R-LA) short-term spending plan late Wednesday night, sending it to President Joe Biden’s desk before the midnight Friday deadline. Biden’s signature will avert a shutdown possibility until January, giving Congress barely two months to complete the process of agreeing on twelve appropriations bills or, failing that, cobble together yet another funding extension. The laddered continuing resolution (CR) extends funding for four appropriations titles until January 19, 2024, and the remaining eight, including for the Department of Defense (DOD) and Department of Homeland Security (DHS), until February 2, 2024. Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) consented...

In Biden’s America, we get half the story, if we’re lucky. If it doesn’t align with the administration’s narrative, it’s either ignored or skimmed over. Take, for instance, the case of 15 diverse, equitable, and inclusive teenagers who beat a white teen to death, which was reported as “a group of people” attacking “a teenager.” This downplays the hate crime element to fit the media’s narrative about black victims and “evil” white people. And there are numerous other stories like this across the country that you probably won’t hear about. Here’s one such example: the case of Alexander Bulakhov, an...

The U.S. Energy Information Administration has been implementing changes to the way it collects its data, and it hasn’t been easy to understand what those changes mean for the traders who use the government agency’s reports to make key decisions. Looking through the changes to the EIA’s data collection process, Tyler Richey, co-editor at Sevens Report Research, said it was “not very clear exactly how the data will be affected.” It appears that previous data collection processes had “‘loopholes’ that allowed certain condensates and ‘other oils’ to not be reported in inventories, but now will be required to be reported...

Another suspected voter fraud operation is being investigated by Massachusetts election officials after two voters in the city of Lawrence reported that someone had illegally voted in their names. One of the voters, who chose to remain anonymous, said he was denied when he went to the polls to vote in the city’s municipal election. The voter said an official informed him he had already voted with an absentee mail ballot. Meanwhile, a second voter, Rosalis Gonzalez, claimed that an absentee ballot was mailed in her name and contained a forged signature. During an investigation, explosive evidence shows a woman...

In 1901, when the American League was founded, the Philadelphia Athletics were one of the eight charter franchises. The A’s moved to Kansas City in 1955 and to Oakland in 1968, and they are on the move again. No major league team has called four cities home, but the A’s are about to write a new and bittersweet page in baseball’s history book. Major league owners voted unanimously Thursday morning to approve the A’s move to Las Vegas, meaning a city that celebrated four World Series championships and nurtured Hall of Famers Reggie Jackson, Rickey Henderson, Catfish Hunter, Rollie Fingers...

Thousands of vials of biological substances — including some labeled “HIV” — and a freezer marked “Ebola” were found inside a secret Chinese-owned biolab in California which the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and FBI initially refused to investigate, according to a House committee report released Wednesday. The illegal lab was operated in the city of Reedley, Calif., and the potential public safety risk it posed only came to light in December 2022 when Jesalyn Harper, an observant code enforcement officer, noticed a green garden hose sticking out of a hole in the side of a warehouse that was...

French cheesemakers are furious over an EU packaging rule that could see the round wooden boxes used to contain camembert outlawed. A fierce debate has erupted following the proposal to sync packaging across the bloc with a requirement for it to be recyclable by 2030. Critics have highlighted what they argue would be the prohibitive cost of recycling the wood boxes, which they say are less harmful for the environment than the plastic alternative.

Daily Caller co-founder Tucker Carlson talked with stand-up comedian and podcaster Theo Von about everything ranging from Big Pharma and shower etiquette to the ********-inducing properties of oral nicotine pouch brand Zyn. Within the first few minutes, Carlson asked Von to identify the fattest person with whom he has ever showered. The topic came up as the two discussed things they’d rather not see on Twitter. “You don’t want to see fat people in the shower, you don’t want to see people on the john, there’s a lot of things that happen that you don’t want to necessarily take a...

American cities and college campuses are being overrun by radical leftists protesting in favor of Hamas. These protests are not organic. They are being funded and organized and you’ll never guess who is helping to do it.It’s not George Soros, although no one would be surprised if he was involved in some way.No, this is being done by Code Pink activist Jodie Evans and her Marxist multi-millionaire husband.

Harrowing images released by a Florida teacher show the brutal facial injuries that she suffered at the hands of 270 pound teenage student at the school where she worked as an aide. Joan Naydich was violently attacked by Brendan Depa, then 17 years old, at Matanzas High School in Palm Coast, 60 miles south of Jacksonville, in February after she told him to stop playing on his Nintendo Switch. The autistic 6-foot 6-inch teen, now 18, was seen punching and kicking the educator in the back and head until she lay on the ground unconscious. He pleaded no contest as...

I have to hand it to the Left Wing Extremists - they do a phenomenal job of coordinating their messaging and blasting it across every possible media outlet. I can honestly say with *zero* sarcasm that I genuinely wish that we Normals could get our our messages half as well as they do their angry, anti-American and anti-human rhetoric. So when I started seeing in my feeds numerous hard left media outlets suggesting that President Trump is a fan of Hitler, my BS detectors started blaring. Luckily when it comes to The Radical Left, it's never difficult to see their...

If you like the Prius's new face, you'll probably dig the Camry's, and the interior also receives a comprehensive update. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The 2025 Toyota Camry marks the mid-size sedan's ninth generation. For the first time, the Camry will be offered only in hybrid guise. A revamped cabin borrows much of its new look from the Crown sedan. While SUVs dominate the automotive landscape like some sort of fender-cladded solar eclipse, mid-size sedans soldier on as family-friendly alternatives that are a little more down to earth (literally). The Hyundai Sonata has been given a recent refresh, and Honda released a new...
