ILLEGAL FIREARM? Did Tim Walz violate state and/or federal law by using a magazine that was too large? It sure sounded like he loaded five shells into his shotgun. Tim's handmade Italian shotgun can hold 4 shells in the magazine and 1 in the chamber. Bird hunters know that you've got to use a plug to limit the capacity of your shotgun to 2 shells in the magazine and 1 in the chamber. Did Tim forget about this rule or is the truth that he has no idea what he is doing. The press pool on the hunt reported that...

It is a reflection of the great fear by the Arizona Republic that Kari Lake could be elected U.S. Senator from Arizona that their azcentral.com website published an astonishing 15 hit pieces on her in the two day period of October 9-10.Such desperation on the part of the Arizona Republic could have been inspired by Lake's debate performance against her opponent, Congressman Ruben Gallego, on Wednesday. He had already dodged one debate against Lake which was barely mentioned at azcentral and after the favorable reviews of Lake during their one and only debate, it is easy to understand his reluctance...

Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) issued an apology after posting a video appearing to mock the sacrament of the Eucharist, noting that she “would never do something to denigrate someone’s faith.” In a statement provided to Fox2 Detroit by Whitmer’s office, the governor explained that the video, in which she can be seen wearing a Harris-Walz camouflage hat and placing a Dorito chip on the tongue of Canadian author and journalist Liz Plank, was “supposed to be a video about the importance of the CHIPS Act to Michigan jobs.” “Over 25 years in public service, I would never do something...

Former President Barack Obama this week hit the campaign trail for Vice President Kamala Harris, part of a concerted effort to rally support around the Democratic presidential nominee with less than a month remaining before the election. Obama has long been known for his soaring oratory, which helped propel him to the White House in 2008. That year, Obama's diverse voting coalition was headlined by overwhelming support from Black and young voters, two groups that Harris needs to win in November. But Obama's remarks while in Pittsburgh on Thursday sparked a major debate about Black voters and their loyalty to...

Burlington, Vermont, is one of the most beautiful small cities in the country, and the place where I was born. In recent years things have deteriorated dramatically. Find out what's happened and how to prevent this from happening to your hometown.

It’s straight out of a comic book: a shot of liquid silk quickly hardens into a sticky, strong fiber that can lift objects 80 times heavier. Sound familiar? Researchers have described the Spider-Man-inspired tech in a new study. A newly-created web-like material will make many people who read comics as kids (or adults) very happy. Spider-Man is officially a step closer to existing in real life. Sure, we’re not at the swinging-from-building-to-building stage yet, but it feels like it’s not too far off. In a new study, a team of researchers from Tufts University’s Silklab, whose goal is to reimagine...

A food bank in Minneapolis, Minnesota, has come under scrutiny for only providing food to people who are black and indigenous, telling white residents not to take advantage of its resources. Mykela ‘Keiko’ Jackson launched the Food Trap Project using a Minnesota state grant. The project was intended to help poor residents in need of food who live near the Sanctuary Covenant Church in North Minneapolis. According to the Daily Mail, the pantry was open as of July 27 but was forced to close and relocate just months after opening when Jackson tried to prevent white people from obtaining food....

This pro-Tim Walz ad is so horrifically bad that my first thought was, it must be a parody. But it is said to have been produced by the same people who made this one, which is real and to which the Walz ad bears some resemblance. So on balance, I think it is another misguided attempt by the Democrats to make their candidates seem human: Brent Sher on X: If you thought that ad of the men for Kamala was cringe, wait until you see the same group's Tim Walz video

If you want to know the real history of Kamala Harris, Tucker hosts Harmeet Dhillon, a conservative California Indian-American attorney whose career spans the same time and place as Kamala's. Plenty of juicy biographical details which no one else has reported on Highly recommended.

[Catholic Caucus] Bishop Athanasius Schneider : A Catholic Conscience and CredoBorn in Kyrgyzstan under Soviet repression, to intensely devout Catholic parents, the future Auxiliary Bishop Athanasius Schneider was essentially raised in the Catholic underground.

Before getting hauled off to prison for allegedly “tampering with voting machines after the 2020 presidential election,” former Mesa County, Colo., election official Tina Peters backed up the proof she compiled showing that the 2020 election was tampered with and manipulated to produce a “win” for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. January 6 political prisoner John Strand tweeted the goods this week to prove that criminals deleted the audit trail and system logs before replacing real voting files with fake ones. This in effect rendered Donald Trump and other Republicans “losers” in 2020. “Tina Peters backing up the elections data...

WORD POWER!! During the invasion of Salerno, Allied forces employed propaganda on a scale they had never tried before. Artillery was used to fire shells, each containing thousands of leaflets, encouraging the Germans to surrender and promising them humane treatment if they did. The shells would open about 300 feet in the air and rain down the leaflets on German troops. One British Major made no secret of his anger at having to fire leaflets at the enemy instead of high explosives. In a short while, however, he changed his mind. For days his men had been slugging it...
