A lawsuit that claims hospital employees caring for a 19-year-old woman with Down syndrome deliberately killed her by implementing blatantly deadly protocols is set for trial. Despite multiple attempts by the hospital’s legal team to have the case thrown out, the judge recently ruled the case can move forward. In this episode, Scott Schara, the determined father of the deceased girl, discusses the case itself, why he believes his daughter was intentionally killed, and how he came to see her death as part of the larger, sinister, depopulation agenda.@ 8:10 | “When they couldn’t put Grace on a ventilator, she...

Daily Readings from the USCCB“I am the voice of one crying out in the desert, ‘make straight the way of the Lord,’” as Isaiah the prophet said.” John 1:23In the passage above, Saint John the Baptist quotes Isaiah 40:3: “A voice proclaims: In the wilderness prepare the way of the LORD! Make straight in the wasteland a highway for our God!” This was a prophecy of Isaiah who was speaking about the return of the Jewish exiles from Babylon back to Jerusalem. Normally, people would travel along the well-watered routes from Mesopotamia to Israel. Those routes were safer than the...

[Arthur]Burns, former Fed Chair, was infamously literally assaulted, being shoved up against the wall, by Nixon because he was not sufficiently "nice" in his decision-making at the time. "Nice", of course, meant lower rates. What followed was the second and extremely destructive run of inflation that defined Carter's Presidential term after Ford lost to him and, I might add, which was not his fault. Such is the nature of all economies; they take time to process what happens at a policy level whether intentional or not, simply because producing things doesn't happen instantly and thus when you change something on...

A large number of Israeli citizens are stocking up on firearms and ammunition in the aftermath of the Hamas Oct. 7 attacks, The New York Times reported on Friday. Hamas killed over 1,200 civilians and kidnapped hundreds of others as part of a mass terrorist attack against Israel on Oct. 7. Hundreds of thousands of Israelis who previously did not own weapons are now buying up firearms to protect themselves against possible future attacks, according to the Times. “God forbid, if something similar happens here, I want to know that I have a firearm,” Zvika Arran, an Israeli citizen living...

To My Friends on the Left: You’ve told me countless times over many years that antisemitism is almost exclusively a right-wing phenomenon, but events since October 7 indicate strongly that a far greater threat to the happiness, health, and safety of Jews comes from your left-wing allies. While Hamas was still live-streaming acts of rape, torture, mutilation, murder, kidnapping, and necrophilia on innocents; before Israel lifted a finger in response; throngs of your allies flooded streets, campuses, airwaves, and social media to rejoice. Still more of your friends hung their heads low to avoid offending the celebrants, who are vital...

In a video statement released on Friday, Letitia James admitted that Judge Engoron had already determined Trump engaged in “significant financial fraud” prior to the commencement of the current trial. “Before this trial even began, the judge ruled in our favor and found that Donald Trump did engage in years of significant financial fraud,” the “corrupt” Attorney General admitted. “We uncovered throughout this trial, we revealed the full extent of that fraud. We introduced extensive evidence and questioned more than two dozen witnesses.” WATCH:

Ukrainian soldiers and marines told The New York Times that the Dnipro river front is brutal. They contradicted official reports that they have gained a foothold on the eastern bank. They said that Ukrainian soldiers are dying in huge numbers and that it is a "suicide mission." In recent months, the banks of the Dnipro river have taken center stage in the war in Ukraine, with Ukrainian officials claiming that their forces have gained a foothold on the eastern bank. However, marines and soldiers on the ground told The New York Times that these claims are overstated and that Ukrainians...

Japanese Researchers Uncover Conclusive Proof That All COVID Variants Originated from Human-Made Sources A stunning Japanese study that has evolved from preprint to peer-reviewed publication suggests that all COVID-19 variants were engineered in biolabs and intentionally released upon humanity. First released in August 2023, the study, conducted by renowned Japanese virologists Professors Atsushi Tanaka and Takayuki Miyazawa of Osaka Medical University and Kyoto University, affirms that the push to keep COVID around is part of a nefarious deep state scheme to remove our individual freedoms and control us. If true then there can be no other conclusion that Globalists who...

It's hard not to become dispirited when following the news out of dear old Ireland lately. The land of this writer's ancestors was once known the world over for its stubborn, centuries' long refusal to submit to the religion and laws of the global empire next door. Nowadays it's better known for its enthusiasm, its desperation even, for submitting to the religion and laws of another empire just a little further east, namely the European Union. Perhaps you heard about the riots that took place in Dublin last month, which began as an expression of rage after an Algerian-born man...

Russia said today that the European Union's decision to open membership talks with Ukraine and Moldova was a politicised decision that could destabilise the bloc. 'Negotiations to join the EU can last for years or decades. The EU has always had strict criteria for accession and it is obvious that at the moment neither Ukraine nor Moldova meets these criteria,' Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters. 'It is clear that this is an absolutely politicised decision, the EU's desire to demonstrate support for these countries. But such new members could destabilise the EU.'

We are told – weekly, daily, even hourly – we must have a ceasefire in Israel. The press, the academics, the politicians of the world, the United Nations, all scream at Israel to stop shooting, stop fighting, give the Hamas terrorists a chance to recover, to regroup, to rebuild their terror network. They don’t say it in those words, of course, but that would be the result. Israel has finally had to place Gaza under siege, maybe years and years too late. Israel is finally committed to wipe out one of their worst, most vicious, most malevolent enemies, the bloodthirsty...

This comes from the Harvard-Harris poll that everyone is talking about. Polls in general should be taken with a grain of salt and the HH polls have had horrific numbers lately. Still, this is reflective of a generational trend. The numbers may not be this bad in real life, but they’re bad. 73% of voters agreed that the Hamas attacks of Oct 7 were “genocidal” and that they could not be justified. The numbers get worse though as you go down generationally. 40% of 35-44 year olds believed that the attacks could be justified and 60% of 18-24 year olds...

This list only includes destroyed vehicles and equipment of which photo or videographic evidence is available. Therefore, the amount of equipment destroyed is significantly higher than recorded here. Loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles and derelict equipment are not included in this list. All possible effort has gone into avoiding duplicate entries and discerning the status of equipment between captured or abandoned. Many of the entries listed as 'abandoned' will likely end up captured or destroyed. Similarly, some of the captured equipment might be destroyed if it can't be recovered. When a vehicle is captured and then...

A U.S. appeals court on Friday revived a lawsuit by female former high school track team members challenging a Connecticut policy that allows transgender girls to compete on girls' teams. The full 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan said the four women could pursue claims that the policy deprived them of wins and athletic opportunities by requiring them to compete with two transgender sprinters. The court did not review the merits of those claims, but only whether the plaintiffs had standing to bring them.

A 50-year-old transgender swimmer competed against teen girls and used the same locker room as girls as young as eight years old. Once competing under the name Nicholas Cepeda, Melody Wiseheart competed in Barrie, Ontario, at the Trojan Cup, sharing a locker room with many young girls. According to some of the parents present, family members were building makeshift tents out of towels to shield the young girls. “The girls were terrified,” an unidentified parent of one of the teenagers told the press.

One set of laws for Donald Trump and his supporters, and another set for the harassersThroughout history, the tyrannical abuse of governmental power has been a fearsome thing to behold. Wise men instituted laws in an effort to tame that abuse. The Constitution of the United States, for example, was framed in large part as a prophylactic against the coercive power of the state. The Framers witnessed the “long train of abuses and usurpations” perpetrated by the British crown and resolved to respond. The Constitution dealt with many other things, to be sure, but concern about tyrannical abuse of power...

It’s hard to be too surprised here. Everything in the educational system, popular culture and social media influencers have been pushing this idea. What’s striking is how extreme the generational difference reflected in the Harvard-Harris poll is. 65% to 35% overall oppose the “ideology that white people are oppressors and nonwhite people and people of certain groups have been oppressed and as a result should be favored today at universities and for employment.” A bare majority, 51% to 49% oppose the idea that white people are “oppressors” and “non-white people” should be favored. 79% of 18-24 year olds support it....
