But the FDA is not conceding that ivermectin is a safe and effective treatment for Covid. To do so would invalidate the emergency use authorization for the mRNA drug..

The Ukraine “special military operation” is a “de facto” war, Russia admitted for the first time, while blaming the West for the escalation and accusing Ukraine of occupying Russian territory. Vladimir Putin’s chief spokesman Dmitry Peskov is the first senior Russian figure to acknowledge the country is at war, saying the conflict changed in nature after Western states began to arm Ukraine. Responding to internal comments about his comments on Friday, Peskov later clarified his position, saying that while the government acknowledged it is “de facto” at war, that did not change the state’s legal position that the invasion of...

On Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time,” host Bill Maher stated that while food prices have gone up significantly under President Joe Biden, 2024 Republican presidential candidate former President Trump is doing better among younger voters because he lies and “when you don’t know anything, you can’t compare it to what’s said.” And “we were just kind of lucky for 20 years, and there wasn’t much inflation. So, maybe you’ve never lived in a time when there was inflation. So, you think, oh, Trump, no inflation, Biden, inflation, me vote Trump.”

Let’s say you’re talking to somebody you don’t know very well, or somebody you know so well that you’ve run out of things to say. Where does the discussion usually go? That’s right: the weather! It’s a safe topic because everybody experiences it, it’s different from one day to the next, and it’s pretty easy to agree on it. “Nice day, huh?” “Yep.” “Hot enough for ya?” “You can say that again!” “Weatherman said rain tomorrow.” “Well, you know how often he gets it right.” Etc. But did you know that talking about the weather can actually help save the...

Peter Robinson, Uncommon Knowledge: After growing up in Harlem, Thomas Sowell served in the United States Marine Corps during the Korean War, then received an undergraduate degree from Harvard, a master’s degree from Columbia, and a doctorate from the University of Chicago. After teaching at universities that included Cornell, Brandeis, and UCLA, Dr. Sowell became a fellow at the Hoover Institution in 1977. Thomas Sowell is the author of some forty books, including his newest volume, Social Justice Fallacies. And this past spring, he turned ninety-three. Tom, welcome back. Thomas Sowell: Oh, good being here. Robinson: Dr. Martin Luther King...

Office of Public Affairs The Justice Department launched the National Extreme Risk Protection Order (ERPO) Resource Center (the Center) which will provide training and technical assistance to law enforcement officials, prosecutors, attorneys, judges, clinicians, victim service and social service providers, community organizations, and behavioral health professionals responsible for implementing laws designed to keep guns out of the hands of people who pose a threat to themselves or others.

During portions of an interview with Fox News Senior Congressional Correspondent Chad Pergram on Friday that were aired on Friday’s broadcast of “Fox News @ Night,” Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-MI) stated that the push by Republicans to have votes on amendments to the government funding bill on the Laken Riley Act and banning charter flights for illegal immigrants “is all politics,” and “a waste of time, it’s a waste of money, and I think it’s really irresponsible.” Pergram said the amendments involve “the Laken Riley Act and the plan to bar charter flights for illegal immigrants, but Democrats said no....

Stock have notched a string of record highs this year, driven by a tech frenzy and high federal spending that have blotted out all else, Bill Gross wrote in his latest investment outlook.It's these factors that have spurred the S&P 500 up over 20% since mid-2022, even as interest rates tightened aggressively in the same timeframe, sending Treasury yields higher.And the trend isn't going away anytime soon, he asserted: "Buckle up for excessive exuberance."Typically, bond yields will decline ahead of stock euphoria. For instance, the Nasdaq 100 increased twelvefold after the 10-year real rate fell from 2% to negative 1%...

I heard a new song last weekend called “Soul Of The Machine.” It’s a simple, old-timey number in E minor with a standard blues chord progression (musicians in the know would call it a 1-4-5 progression). In it, a voice sings about being a trapped soul with a heart that once beat but is now cold and weak. “Soul Of The Machine” is not a real song at all. Or is it? It’s getting harder to say. Whatever it is, it’s the creation of Suno, an AI tool from a startup of the same name focused on music generation. Rolling...

Russia has announced the arrest of eleven individuals, including four who are suspected of carrying out a deadly shooting at a concert hall near Moscow, marking the most lethal incident of its kind in the country in two decades. -snip- The Federal Security Service (FSB) of Russia has reported the apprehension of the “four terrorists” as they were allegedly attempting to cross into Ukraine, repeatedly mentioning that the suspects had connections within Ukraine. They are currently being transported to Moscow for further investigation. Maria Zakharova, a spokeswoman for the Russian Foreign Ministry, expressed on Telegram that the suspects had intended...

Says a ‘window’ was prepared for them to cross the northern border of Ukraine

WASHINGTON, Tuesday, March 22. The prospect of a speedy return of the people of Arkansas to loyalty and submission daily brightens. Through recent intelligence received here, it is known that two Judges of State Courts under the Confederate rule have voluntarily come forward and taken the oath of allegiance, and a third was on his way to do likewise. ALBERT PIKE writes a pertinent epistle to his wife, hinting in quite strong terms his desire to return to ABRAHAM's bosom, but expresses his doubts if he can do so under the Amnesty Proclamation. Gen. STEELE has informed Mrs. PIKE that...

“Reserved for a King” (Mark 11:1-10) Our story today starts out with “a colt tied.” As our text says, “You will find a colt tied.” But no, I’m not talking about finding Peyton Manning tied with Brett Favre at 186 regular-season wins. This is not about an Indianapolis Colt. This is about a different colt, in a different town, tied in a different way. The colt I’m talking about is the one that Jesus uses to ride into Jerusalem on. Jesus sends two of his disciples ahead to get it: “Go into the village in front of you, and immediately...

One of my mentors was a cousin by marriage who was a biophysicist, prominent too - he was terraforming Mars with NASA when he died. He and his wife Jane were founding professors at York University. Jane had travelled by bus to Idi Amin’s Uganda to research her doctorate from the London School of Economics, proceeded to a law degree, and he ended his career as head of the Royal Society. God gave me my terrifying parents, but he also gave me Bob and Jane and I would fall on them periodically, sleep in his basement study, lined with tribal...

What the hell is this evil? A Federal Red Flag center; We did not authorize this. Announced, of course, just hours after the omnibus passes.

That number of ER visits is up 50% from 2016 through 2022, the Los Angeles Times reports. However, during that same period, the number of skiers and snowboarders hitting the slopes remained mostly the same in California. “It’s a wonderful sport, but if you ask me, I notice a bit of a difference in courtesy,” said Joann Shimizu Wood, a Southern California resident who has been skiing since 1976. “We used to say, as we were coming downhill to whoever was downhill from us, ‘On your right! On your left!’ as we’re passing them.” Wood said she now hardly ever...

Former CNN CEO Chris Licht was spotted during Oscars week seemingly without a care in the world at the San Vicente Bungalows, Hollywood’s starriest private club. The ousted news exec was seen solo in the corner of the Los Angeles club’s private open air library, texting away on his phone with his feet up. Maybe Licht’s had the last laugh after all? The self-proclaimed “most trusted name in news” is fighting an uphill battle to remain relevant two years after Discovery took it over, sources tell us. Anderson Cooper remains as the network’s only primetime star after CNN axed Chris...

8.6 million people in England were prescribed antidepressants in 2022 to 2023. This is the double the number since 2011. Can you explain this increase, the motivations driving the overprescription of psychiatric drugs and the problems attached to them? Are human emotions being misdiagnosed as mental illness? We are witnessing the effects of mass conditioning amongst western societies to medicalise the human condition in efforts to increase the customer base for psychiatric drugs. Financially, it’s a numbers game for the pharmaceutical executives. The more people identifying with “mental illness”, the more pills they can sell. It's a profit-driven initiative, and...

Kremlin propagandist Margarita Simonyan has accused Western intelligence of "direct participation" in a massacre at a Moscow concert hall that has killed at least 115 people and left hundreds injured. The Islamic State group has claimed responsibility for Friday night's attack on Crocus City Hall in which armed men entered and opened fire. The U.S., which had warned of an imminent terrorist attack this month, said that theory is credible. However, in a post on Telegram and X, Simonyan, who is editor-in-chief of the RT channel and an ally of Vladimir Putin wrote: "Western intelligence agencies knew yesterday that the...
