Porn star Stormy Daniels is on the stand at former President Donald Trump’s “hush money” trial in New York today — a pivotal moment in the case. Daniels is describing their alleged sexual encounter, at times in so much detail that Judge Juan Merchan scolded the prosecution, saying the nitty gritty was “unnecessary.” *** “In fairness to the people, I think the witness was a little bit difficult to control the witness," Justice Merchan said*** Trump attorney Todd Blanche moved Tuesday for a mistrial, citing what he called Stormy Daniels' "prejudicial" and salacious testimony about an alleged sexual encounter with...

South Korean researchers have developed a new technique for creating synthetic diamonds — and they think they’ve only scratched the surface of its potential. Synthetic diamonds: Aside from jewelry, diamonds are used in drilling, manufacturing, healthcare, quantum computing, and more. The cost and uncertainty of finding the right kind of diamonds in nature inspired scientists to see if they could make them in the lab. In the 1950s, a team at General Electric pulled it off using a process called “high-pressure high-temperature” (HPHT), which mimics the conditions that create diamonds in nature. This process is still used to make 99%...

VIDEO Former Congressman Joe Walsh has been in a nosedive ever since his infamous 2011 Town Hall meltdown in which he attacked his own constituents. Of course, he lost his next election and proceeded to dive further into the depths of economic desperation and mental depravity until he discovered that if only he sold his soiled soul and embraced the TDS left he could earn a few pieces of silver they tossed his way for performing anti-Trump propaganda tricks for them. Look for more and more broadcast appearances by PATHETIC Joe Walsh the closer to Election Day we get. Oh,...

Elon Musk is chiding Boeing on social media for employing "too many" non-technical managers amid a wave of ongoing layoffs at his own company, Tesla. Musk fired off his thoughts on X this week, responding to reporting on Boeing's Starliner spacecraft, which is set to make a launch attempt on Monday evening after years of delays and setbacks. In 2014, NASA granted Boeing $4.2 billion and Musk's SpaceX $2.6 billion to develop a commercial crew system that could transport astronauts to the International Space Station. Despite working with a little more than half of the money that Boeing received, SpaceX...

The intelligence institutions, in collaboration with the weaponized justice institutions, created the fourth branch of government. It was this system that was fine-tuned by Barack Obama and Eric Holder to target their political opposition. Representative Henry Cuellar is a warning to the other compromised people in Washington DC not to challenge the administrative state. The “six ways to Sunday” groups will focus on anyone who threatens the system or breaks the code of Omerta.

"I'd love to tell you, friend, but I'm afraid news about my assassination attempt is exclusive...

In September 1943, as the tide of the Second World War was turning in the Soviet Union’s favour, the Soviet leader Joseph Stalin called a meeting at the Kremlin. Alongside the foreign minister Vyacheslav Molotov and the head of the secret police Vsevolod Merkulov were three men in Stalin’s office for the first time: Metropolitan Sergius, Metropolitan Aleksey, and Metropolitan Nikolay, three of the few Orthodox Church hierarchs left in the Soviet Union. The fact of such a meeting taking place is naturally surprising. Even those who know little about the Soviet Union are familiar with its anti-religious policies, especially...

It’s been said that when we talk to God, we’re ‘praying’, but when he talks to us, we’re crazy. Personally, I think it’s far crazier for us to pray without expecting God to speak back. Since the beginning of time, God has been a communicating being. When we choose to follow him, God gives us the Holy Spirit who speaks to us wherever we are. The challenge is learning to discern God’s voice above the others we hear. Although he longs to reveal himself in a personal way, human frailty means we can get it wrong. The good news is...

Maddow also said, based on events...

They want Trump dead. Former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki fantasized about Trump dying before the 2024 election on a Tuesday morning appearance on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” Joe Biden and the Democrat-media complex are terrified of Trump. They know Trump is ahead in the polls. They know Joe Biden is unpopular. This is why Biden’s DOJ is trying to jail Trump. Biden can’t win unless he cheats – or jails his main political rival. Psaki fantasized about all the ways Trump can be eliminated this election season. “Maybe Donald Trump will go away. Maybe he’ll go to jail. Maybe...

To those who seek to annihilate Israel and its Jews, there is no one as valuable as a Jew who sides with them and many young Jews know this. By aligning themselves with today's Nazis they go from being hated by Israel-haters to being loved by them (for now). "Jewish Voice for Peace" and "If NotNow" willingly serve as useful idiots for those who wish to exterminate the Jewish state and the Jewish people-including them.
