Republican Presidential candidate Nikki Haley said Friday that former President Trump won’t debate her because she will call him out on “lying.” During an appearance on “Fox & Friends” on Friday morning, the former United Nations ambassador was asked about Trump’s claim that she has “no chance” of winning the White House. She answered by touting her legislative track record while governor of South Carolina and calling him out for “lying” about her record. “We’ve got to start telling the truth,” Haley said. “And the problem with Donald Trump and Joe Biden is they think if they tell Americans something,...

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis reportedly gave significant contracts to her alleged lover’s law partner, raising concerns that Willis’s prosecution of former President Donald Trump is deeply rooted in a conflict of interest. snip “It’s not just the issue about Wade being her paramour and the issue of kickbacks, but she also got the funds by misleading the Fulton County Commissioners about what the funds were going to be used for,” John Malcolm, vice president for the Heritage Foundation’s Institute for Constitutional Government, told the Daily Caller. “In addition to that, it would enrich [Wade’s] firm.”

... ...tens of thousands of unbelievably dedicated men, women, and children are gathering for the annual March for Life in the nation's capital. It's too early to know for sure, but I am confident the marchers will be undaunted by the snow and biting cold of this day. After all, Marchers for Life have gathered every year on this day, come rain, snow, sleet, or sunshine, ever since the U.S. Supreme Court's shameful Roe v. Wade decision that legalized the killing of millions of unborn babies across America in 1973. Thankfully, a wiser and humbler High Court ended Roe v....

Now that it's an election year, the media spotlight on the dangers of "misinformation" and "disinformation" is starting to shine bright, and oddly enough this kind of thing comes mostly from outlets that have ironically helped spread misinformation while running cover for the Democrats: Disinformation poses an unprecedented threat to democracy in the U.S. in 2024, according to researchers, technologists and political scientists. https://t.co/oWF8f2ypXD — NBC News (@NBCNews) January 18, 2024 "Disinformation" can of course often be defined as things that are true but aren't helpful to the Left's desired narrative. One of the most glaring recent examples of that...

House Democrats promised to bail out Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) if he were to do the “right thing” and help pass an immigration bill that would do little to combat the border crisis unfolding under President Joe Biden. Johnson has said he opposes an immigration deal struck by Sen. James Lankford (R-OK) and Democrats. Although he faces significant pressure from President Donald Trump and conservatives not to back the deal, Democrats are now offering to help him keep his speakership should he face a motion to vacate over his passing of the immigration bill. No. Deal. https://t.co/9lNJT4fmT2 — Breitbart News...

Sen. John Thune (R-SD) and other pro-establishment Republican senators want former President Donald Trump to butt out of their back-room negotiations with pro-migration Democrats. “It’s not helpful,” Thune, who is the top deputy to Republican leader Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY), told CNN. “There are a number of pieces in there that are good, conservative border policies that we’ve been trying to get done for years,” he told reporters. “There are some folks without question that don’t want to get any solution to a problem because they think that might help the other side,” retiring Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) told CNN....

It is now abundantly clear that Russia has defeated the Western sanctions regime that was intended to cripple its economy and force its withdrawal from Ukraine. Instead of collapsing, the Russian economy is growing rapidly. Russia's GDP grew by an impressive 5.5 percent in the third quarter of 2023. Russian GDP growth for all of 2023 should exceed 3 percent. Ironically, the Russians are doing rather better than those who imposed sanctions on them. In 2023, the U.S. economy grew by 2.4 percent while the German economy shrank, and the EU as a whole grew by less than 1 percent....

Last year, I signed Freedom Conservatism’s “Statement of Principles,” a call to “apply the timeless principles of liberty to the challenges of the 21st century.” I did so primarily because I believe that individual liberty is essential to human flourishing, but also because I believe these principles can inform my work at the Martin Center to renew and fulfill the promise of higher education—in North Carolina and beyond. A commitment to liberty in higher education means a commitment to freedom of expression and conscience, academic freedom, viewpoint diversity, and a curriculum that prepares students to be future guardians of the...

UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak survived a key test of his leadership Wednesday, fending off right-wing rebels to win a crunch parliamentary vote on his contentious plan to send migrants to Rwanda. Sunak, in power since October 2022, has staked his political future on the scheme, as Britain gears up for its next general election later this year. Right-wing Conservatives had threatened to kill the Safety of Rwanda (Asylum and Immigration) Bill, but they ultimately backed down and the government won comfortably by 320 votes to 276. The result means Sunak avoids a serious weakening of his authority, as his...

Twenty years after he was convicted of murdering his pregnant wife, Laci Peterson, Scott Peterson has a new ally in his fight to prove he didn't commit the crime. The Los Angeles Innocence Project is now working with Peterson, according to news outlets in California. It's an important shift in Peterson's case. Up to now, many of his attorneys' efforts have focused on overturning his death sentence — an effort that succeeded in 2020. Peterson, 51, is now seeking exoneration and to free himself from serving a life sentence. The Los Angeles Innocence Project issued a widely cited statement Thursday...

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina is expected to endorse former President Donald Trump ahead of Tuesday’s New Hampshire primary, a blow to his fellow South Carolinian Nikki Haley, the former U.N. ambassador. A person familiar with Scott’s plans confirmed Friday to The Associated Press that Scott was expected to travel from Florida to New Hampshire with the GOP front-runner.

The Arena Group alerted all Sports Illustrated staffers on Friday that their positions were being eliminated. Richard Deitsch, a sports media reporter who left for Sports Illustrated for the Athletic, posted the email that all employees received on X. It noted, in part, that some employees would be “terminated immediately.” The decision comes after the Authentic Brands Group, the licensing group that bought Sports Illustrated for $110 million from Meredith five years ago, terminated the agreement it holds with The Arena Group to publish the magazine in print and digital, per Front Office Sports. “Some employees will be terminated immediately,...

The Department of National Defence says it won’t stand for members of the Canadian Armed Forces removing or vandalizing the feminine hygiene fixtures now required in men’s washrooms. True North has received reports and photos of damaged or removed tampon dispensers and disposal units, which were mandated in all federally regulated male and female washrooms late last year. One photo shared with True North was said to be taken in a men’s washroom at CFB Trenton, a large air base in central Ontario. A spokesperson for the Department of National Defence said there have been no reports of vandalism at...

My latest song. Feel the wind.

Sen. Tim Scott is set to endorse former President Donald Trump on Friday night at a rally in New Hampshire, according to a source familiar with the plans. Scott will be the latest in a string of former Republican presidential rivals to support Trump, following Vivek Ramaswamy's decision Monday to drop out of the 2024 race and back Trump after the Iowa caucuses. North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum also recently gave Trump his support.

Newt Gingrich Goes Scorched Earth on Liz Cheney Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich criticized Liz Cheney, accusing her of dishonesty, manipulation, and destructive behavior. He linked such claims to a lawsuit filed by Stefan Passantino, alleging unethical conduct by Cheney and the January 6 committee. Gingrich highlighted Cheney’s alleged manipulation of a witness and the subsequent changes in testimony, raising concerns regarding her credibility.

The wave of breakdowns started in December and shows no sign of stopping. This week, at least 16 people suffered burns in the city of Nizhny Novgorod when a large-bore heating pipe exploded, spouting boiling water into the street. "They decided to freeze out Europe, but that didn't work. Then they decided to freeze their own to intimidate others,"

VIDEOThere is one name haunting all attendees at the 2024 World Economic Forum. DONALD TRUMP. As they themselves admit, Trump haunts their every thought 24/7. Why? Because as WEF Stooge Boy Yuval Noah Harari admitted, the election of Trump this year means the "deathblow" to their planned global economic order which is actually comes out as an election endorsement. Oh, and KUDOS to Rebel News of Canada for having an INDEPENDENT media on the scene in Davos covering this event and actually asking challenging questions of the attendees in stark contrast to controlled media such as CNN and BBC which...
