The father of Georgia school shooter Colt Gray was arrested on charges including murder after it was revealed that he purchased the AR-15-style rifle the 14-year-old used to shoot dead four people on campus. Gray, 54, has been taken into custody by local authorities and charged with two felony counts of murder, four felony counts of involuntary manslaughter, and eight felony counts of cruelty to children. His mugshot was released by the Barrow County Sheriff's Office Thursday night. Officials confirmed in a press conference that the charges stem from Colin 'knowingly allowing' his son to have access to the firearm...

Alphabet’s YouTube said on Thursday, September 5, it was terminating the Tenet Media channel and four channels operated by Tenet owner Lauren Chen, following an indictment from the US Department of Justice. The Justice Department on Wednesday filed money-laundering charges against two employees of Russian state media network RT for what officials said was a scheme to hire an American company to produce online content to influence the 2024 presidential election.

I couldn’t help but notice on Labor Day that President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris went and spoke to members of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW). While not unusual – Democrats have always pandered to unions and are in bed with union bosses, getting almost all of the campaign cash unions spend – something occurred to me while watching: How many non-union, non-Democratic Party crowds has Kamala Harris addressed in the last month. Turns out, not many. While not every Harris event has been a union event, every Harris event is dominated by union members. It...

24 hours after a deadly school shooting in Georgia, local parents are speaking out, worried about strict cell phone policies. Many Apalachee High School students said that they used phones to tell their parents about the shooting. This comes as school districts in Ohio and many other states, including Georgia, are adopting stricter policies on mobile devices. … In the Cincinnati Public School District (CPS), seventh through twelfth grade students are required to lock their phones in a pouch during the school day. It's supposed to limit distractions in the classroom, but not all parents are on board, especially after...

The First Baptist Church in America in Providence, RI, is America’s oldest Baptist church. Established in 1638 by Puritan Minister Roger Williams, it has since shed its long history of faithful teaching and tradition and is now being led by Pastrix Dr. Jamie Washam, where they regularly share progressive LGBTQ Propaganda and put out church signs about how Jesus has two dads and God the Father’s imagined personal pronouns. This year, they helped host NecronomiCon, a three-day event named after horror writer H. P. Lovecraft’s famed magical grimoire, also known as the Book of the Dead. NecronomiCon is a “biennial...

Colt Gray was given the gun he used to shoot dead four people at his Georgia high school as a Christmas present from his father months after they were questioned by the FBI over alleged threats. The 14-year-old was arrested on Wednesday at Apalachee High School in Winder, minutes after authorities say he opened fire on students and teachers. Law enforcement sources told CNN Thursday that the teenage shooter received the gun for the holidays this past December. His father Colin Gray has told authorities that he bought the gun for the boy himself as a Christmas gift. Colin Gray...

Judge Tanya Chutkan acknowledged Thursday that appeals are certain no matter how she rules on pending immunity issues in former President Donald Trump’s Jan. 6 case. During the first hearing since the federal case was paused in December, attorneys argued about the timeline for handling a range of issues that must be resolved before moving forward... Trump’s attorney John Lauro emphasized there is no need to rush to judgement, but Chutkan responded that everybody knows her ruling will be appealed. “We’re hardly sprinting to a finish line here,” Chutkan said, noting it’s difficult to even contemplate a trial date with...

Colin Gray gave his son an AR-15 style rifle as a gift, two law enforcement sources said. It's unclear when he gave the gift, but it was after authorities interviewed the father and son last year in connection with threats to carry out a school shooting.

Will the U.S. economy be able to beat inflation without going into a recession? That may be the question investors are asking themselves as more economic data is pointing to a softening economy. Recession fears started to percolate in early August, when July jobs data showed the unemployment rate growing to 4.3%. The increase in unemployment triggered the recession-indicating Sahm rule and a deep stock-market selloff over the next two trading days. “The unemployment rate is increasingly more of a watch point for investors,” Matt Stucky, chief portfolio manager of equities at Northwestern Mutual Wealth Management, told MarketWatch. Although the...

Su-35: Russia’s High-Tech Fighter Struggles in Ukraine Conflict The Su-35 “Flanker-E” was Russia’s attempt to keep pace with their American and Chinese great power rivals. On paper, it’s a powerhouse. In practice, the Su-35 has had a mixed record. This is not because the Russians are incapable of building competitive warplanes. They’ve got those. It is more likely because the Su-35 is a Russian warbird that incorporates many Western military components, making the production of these birds difficult as well as the fact the Russians have had to use the Su-35 in ways the plane was not designed to be...

Julie Kelly 🇺🇸 @julie_kelly2 Guys, it’s not a win that the J6 case against Donald Trump is not going to trial before the election. What Chutkan did today by taking the rare—unprecedented?—step of allowing DOJ to file an “opening brief” on additional immunity questions is a way to put Trump on trial without a jury and little recourse. Tom Windom, Smith’s prosecutor, told Chutkan the brief would be “comprehensive.” The document will include grand jury transcripts, 302s (FBI) and other cherry picked “evidence” to salvage the “Big Lie” narrative as people start to vote. You can GUARANTEE DOJ will release...

A teenage bodybuilder has been found dead in his home following an apparent cardiac incident, according to Globo and multiple other outlets. Matheus Pavlak, 19, was found on Sunday at his home in Blumenau, Brazil, after suffering a heart attack, according to the Military Fire Department.

Matheus Hennings, 20, told Globo that his late friend “beat his own mind” in regard to his weight...

Facebook is once again at the center of a censorship storm after being accused of blocking the circulation of a video exposing harsh criticisms by a official regarding the prosecution of former President Donald Trump. The video, also published on Rumble features undercover footage showing Nicholas Biase, the chief spokesman for the Manhattan US Attorney’s Office, which brought cases against President Trump, slamming Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s Trump case as a “perversion of justice.” “Honestly, I think the case is nonsense,” Biase says in the video. Users who went to share the video on Facebook were hit with the...

As we reported, that honeymoon for Kamala Harris is looking like it might be over as the American people take a better look at her and her running mate, Tim Walz.

New Michigan Poll and Latest Nate Silver Forecast Are Going to Cause Dem Meltdowns Now Silver's numbers just got better for Trump and worse for Harris, from what I wrote on Wednesday.
