Actor Dennis Quaid has accused Facebook of censoring promotional content for the upcoming movie Reagan, claiming the social media giant has refused to allow ads with inspirational quotes from Ronald Reagan. He also claimed Facebook suspended the movie’s official page for posting clips of Quaid speaking to Fox News, Jordan Peterson’s podcast, and other outlets, though the page is currently active. “Facebook is once again censoring the free flow of ideas, deciding what’s best for us to see and hear; only this time it’s throttling advertising and promotion for my movie about Ronald Reagan,” the actor said via an email...

Explanation: This was an unusual night. For one thing, the night sky of August 11 and 12, earlier this week, occurred near the peak of the annual Perseid Meteor Shower. Therefore, meteors streaked across the dark night as small bits cast off from Comet Swift-Tuttle came crashing into the Earth's atmosphere. Even more unusually, for central Germany at least, the night sky glowed purple. The red-blue hue was due to aurora caused by an explosion of particles from the Sun a few days before. This auroral storm was so intense that it was seen as far south as Texas and...

political action committee has filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission against Donald Trump over his recent two-hour live interview with Elon Musk. End Citizens United, a Democrat-aligned PAC, claims that the interview "amounted to a virtual campaign event" for Trump financed by X, formerly Twitter, which would be in violation of federal law. The complaint names Trump, his campaign treasurer Bradley T. Crate and X as the respondents. "Such a brazen corporate contribution undermines the anti-corruption aims of the Act, and the Commission should immediately investigate these violations and take appropriate remedial action," the complaint said, referring to...

Presidential hopeful Kamala Harris and her husband Doug Emhoff have refinanced their luxury properties on the east and west coast ten times with loans totaling $13M. The second couple, both 59, have borrowed way in excess of what they’re worth – their joint fortune estimated at $8 million by Forbes. And, surprisingly, their various home loans and lines of credit are all with Wells Fargo Bank, the lending giant Kamala battled when she was Attorney General of California. Harris was in litigation for years with Wells Fargo just as she and Emhoff were living in a luxury property in the...

The World Health Organization (WHO) declared mpox to be a public health emergency of international concern (PHEIC) on Wednesday "Today, the Emergency Committee met and advised me that in its view, the situation constitutes a public health emergency of international concern. I have accepted that advice," said WHO Director-General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus during a media briefing on Wednesday. In the U.S, there have been 1,634 cases of mpox reported so far this year, according to data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). That's more than double the number of national cases seen at the same...

A woman found dead on a trail in Northern California was killed in a domestic dog attack, and authorities say that a pack of 25 Great Danes were seen "running loose in the area" at the time. An autopsy found numerous dog bites on Corbin, and a subsequent DNA test confirmed that she was the victim of a domestic dog attack. The sheriff's department said it believes Corbin was walking the trail when she was attacked. DNA analysis of Corbin's clothing is seeking to determine which dog, or dogs, bit her, and KCRA reports that none of the animals have...

The vast majority of President Joe Biden’s 2020 supporters who are independents or Democrats are unaware of the “radical” policy positions Vice President Kamala Harris has held, according to a Media Research Center (MRC)/McLaughlin & Associates poll. A review by the MRC finds that legacy media outlets have largely failed to illuminate these issues as Harris hopes to cobble together Biden’s 2020 coalition. The poll, first revealed by MCR’s NewsBusters, found that anywhere from 71 percent to 86 percent of the 400 independents and 800 Democrats polled are unaware of Harris’s “radical” record on particular issues. The following are ten...

This is part two of a series on how to ensure a fair election. The way to win the 2024 Election includes guarding, validating and reconciling all ballots counted in the election (Part II). Last week, we revealed how to win the 2024 election. We all win if the election results are fair, legitimate and certifiable. After the 2020 Election many Americans believed that the results were stolen because they never should have been certified and they never want to see that happen again. Ballots were inserted into the election in drop boxes, through the mail, and on election day....

FIRST ON FOX: Google admitted that autocomplete search results regarding the assassination attempt against former President Trump last month were prohibited by design and part of the company's policy for "hypothetical political violence against current figures." FOX Business reported exclusively in July that Sen. Roger Marshall, R-Kan., was launching an investigation into Google after its autocomplete search results did not register the assassination attempt against Trump on July 13, which was dominating the news. He questioned the company in a letter over the search function, asking about its algorithm and what decisions were made in the aftermath of the attack...

Former President Clinton’s White House strategist Paul Begala says former President Trump’s stream of insults against Vice President Harris is “nutty at best and racist at worst” as a campaign strategy, as the vice president closes the polling gap, seizing on momentum. “He’s an insult comic,” Begala said Tuesday in a CNN interview. “That’s what he does.” Begala lauded Trump allies, including former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, for attempting to keep Trump on message and focus on campaign issues, but he noted Trump’s current strategy isn’t as effective against Harris as it was against President Biden. “The problem is he’s...

President Trump is still under a partial gag order in this case. CBS News reported: Former President Donald Trump’s latest attempt to get the judge presiding over his New York criminal case to recuse himself has been denied. It was the third time Justice Juan Merchan has rejected Trump’s demands that he step aside from the case. Each effort revolved around claims that the judge was compromised because his daughter works as a Democratic consultant. Trump’s lawyers first made the request in May 2023, before the case went to trial, arguing that Merchan should step aside because of work Merchan’s...

Los Angeles County Deputy District Attorney Shea Sanna is filing a lawsuit against George Soros-funded District Attorney George Gascón, alleging he was subjected to a “retaliation campaign” after he misgendered a transgender child predator, who was later found guilty of molesting a 10-year-old girl. Sanna repeatedly referred to Hannah Tubbs, a transgender woman, as a man while prosecuting him for sexually assaulting a child.

You know it’s bad when CNN is starting to ask questions about Kamala Harris’s refusal to engage with the media. Kamala Harris has not done one interview or press conference since she forced Joe Biden off the 2024 ballot 25 days ago. All she has done is repeat the same teleprompter speech over and over again. Harris doesn’t even have any policies on her campaign website because Americans are unhappy with the Biden-Harris inflation crisis and open borders nightmare. This is why Harris stole President Trump’s ‘no tax on tips’ idea. Kamala Harris is hiding from the media again as...

A fight by Joe Biden allies to keep Robert F. Kennedy Jr. off the ballot could backfire on the Democratic presidential campaign by delivering more votes for Republican Donald Trump than Kamala Harris, according to some poll indications. On Monday, a New York judge removed Kennedy from the New York ballot, saying this New York address is "a scam." The lawsuit was organized by Clear Choice, a Democrat-aligned political action committee formed by supporters of President Biden's bid for a second term in the White House. Similar rulings to oust RFK could be won in 18 states including multiple battleground...

Francis’s Angelus Message About the Evils of Holding to Our Catholic Religious ConvictionsIt is somewhat surprising that people still show up in St. Peter’s Square to hear Francis’s Angelus messages, but the Vatican reported that approximately twelve thousand pilgrims gathered for the August 11, 2024 message. As is usually the case, those who hoped to find Catholic wisdom, or at least avoid scandal, likely would have been disappointed by Francis’s message.Francis based his message on the Novus Ordo Gospel reading for the Sunday, which reads as follows:“The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, ‘I am the bread which...

This strain had previously been contained to the Democratic Republic of Congo.Independent experts on the committee met virtually Wednesday to advise WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus on the severity of the outbreak. After that consultation, he announced Wednesday that he had declared a public health emergency of international concern — the highest level of alarm under...
