NATIONAL CHEESE CURD DAY On October 15, National Cheese Curd Day celebrates the velvety goodness of cheese curds. #NationalCheeseCurdDay Cheese Curds are unique, funky, snackable little pieces of yellow or white Wisconsin cheddar cheese. Many restaurants coat and deep-fry them to a golden brown. When you bite into one, first expect a warm buttery crunch on the outside. The next delicious taste will be an ooey-gooey burst of dairyland delicacy on the inside. What are they? Well, cheesemaking naturally creates cheese curds. Fresh ones squeak when you bite into them. Cheesemakers create different flavors to appease the growing number of...

An anti-sex trafficking activist claims that the trafficking of migrant girls has exploded since the beginning of the Biden-Harris administration, according to a Monday report from the Free Press. A woman who identified herself as “Lisa” and runs a non-profit organization dedicated to dismantling sex trafficking rings said that the number of girls being trafficked has drastically changed in just the past few years as open border policies have made it easier for criminals to operate in the U.S., according to a report by the Free Press. The claims follow hundreds of thousands of unaccompanied alien children (UAC) from Latin...

The Biden administration has warned Israel that it must increase the amount of humanitarian aid it is allowing into Gaza within the next 30 days or it could risk losing access to U.S. weapons funding. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin warned their Israeli counterparts in a letter dated Sunday that the changes must occur. The letter, which restates U.S. policy toward humanitarian aid and arms transfers, was sent amid deteriorating conditions in northern Gaza and an Israeli airstrike on a hospital tent site in central Gaza that killed at least four people and burned others....

Robert Adolph Boehm, in accordance with his lifelong dedication to his own personal brand of decorum, muttered his last unintelligible and likely unnecessary curse on October 6, 2024, shortly before tripping backward over "some stupid mother****ing thing" and hitting his head on the floor. Robert was born in Winters, TX, to the late Walter Boehm and Betty Smith on May 6, 1950, after which God immediately and thankfully broke the mold and attempted to cover up the evidence. Raised Catholic, Robert managed to get his wife Dianne pregnant (three times) fast enough to just barely miss getting drafted into the...

Florida’s public universities are purging the list of general education courses they will offer next year to fall in line with a state law pushed for by Gov. Ron DeSantis targeting “woke ideologies” in higher education. These decisions, in many cases being driven by the university system’s Board of Governors, have the potential to affect faculty and thousands of students across the state. Hundreds of courses are slated to become electives after previously counting toward graduation requirements. The state’s involvement in a curriculum process — which has historically been left to universities — is riling academics and students who oppose...

Biden’s border policies have led to an explosion in the forced prostitution of migrants in the U.S. ‘If I wanted to, I could order a girl within 15 minutes.’ DALLAS, TEXAS — Lisa slides a Hellcat pistol into her backpack, slinging it over her shoulder. She jumps out of the driver’s seat of her massive Ford F-250 as we head into a barbecue joint for lunch. Steel brass knuckles glint in the console beside a pencil-shaped, pronged object. She sees me looking at it. “That’s my stabby-stick,” Lisa says before I even ask. “In case I can’t bring my gun...

Kamala Harris questioned Donald Trump's mental state Tuesday after the 78-year-old Republican's latest televised town hall veered into a surreal, impromptu music session. "Hope he's okay," the Democratic candidate posted on X. Harris's campaign, which has begun to aggressively challenge Trump on his health and mental stability, said that during the late Monday event he appeared "lost, confused, and frozen on stage." Former president Trump defended the event in the critical swing state of Pennsylvania, saying it was "so different". "It was amazing! The Q and A was almost finished when people began fainting from the excitement and heat," Trump...

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton went on CNN to make the case for giving government total control over information. "Right now, there are too many websites that allow users to post anything that's on their mind," she complained. "This is because federal law permits Internet platforms to pretend that they are, like the Post Office, just passing along communications without taking any responsibility for inspecting the content. It's bad enough that the Post Office passes along malicious and erroneous content, but it's limited to one recipient per envelope. A messaged placed on Facebook or X can reach millions in...

"The View" co-host Whoopi Goldberg incorrectly fact-checked a guest about a famous moment when President Ronald Reagan challenged the Soviet Union. Actress Rosie Perez was comparing former President Trump’s years in office to the Biden-Harris administration, arguing that Trump was a national embarrassment during his tenure in the White House and the crises he faced. "Biden and Harris got us out of a pandemic. Our world was crumbling around us. What did Trump do on the pandemic? He sent COVID tests that we desperately needed over to our adversary, to Russia. What happened?" she asked. "Even if you are a...

Hurricanes Helene and Milton hit Florida's west coast back-to-back in the span of weeks, with families barely able to rebuild in the time between them. Representative Greg Steube (R-FL) discussed the impact of the hurricanes in a recent appearance on Fox Business's Cavuto Coast to Coast, describing how "people on the coastline just got hammered" and offered insight into the prevailing homeowners' insurance crisis in the Sunshine State. Rep. Steube noted that Helene brought a 5—to 7-foot storm surge, a record high, while Milton's eye passed over his congressional district, so the people on the coastline just got hammered." I...

Sitting on death row in 2009, John Jacobson Jr., known as the "Yacht Killer," talked about murdering married couple Thomas and Jackie Hawks to obtain the money for a sex-change surgery. Five years earlier, Jacobson lured the Hawkses onto their boat off the California coast, tied them to the vessel's anchor, and threw them overboard before grabbing a beer from the fridge and starting to fish. "I wanted the surgery, and I knew I 100 percent wanted the surgery," Jacobson told ABC News. Last year, Jacobson’s dreams came true when California taxpayers footed the bill for his gender transition surgery,...

Former President Donald Trump's interview with the Bloomberg News and The Economic Club of Chicago.

As the 2024 presidential campaign edges to a close, the arrogance of the left, especially those in the media, is escalating to a fever pitch. The best example of their tone-deaf hysteria is Martha Raddatz’s attempt to humiliate J.D.Vance over what she called lies about FEMA and Tren de Aragua. People like Raddatz never learn from their egregious, foolish mistakes. She tried to assert that the reports of FEMA failures were false when everyone with a pulse has heard the hundreds of horror stories from the victims on the ground. She tried to stop Vance from speaking, so determined was...

Conservative pundit Meghan McCain blasted Martha Raddatz of ABC News for the way she handled an interview with Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) on the network’s Sunday public affairs program “This Week.” “It’s really insane Martha and her producers didn’t see how awful her line of questioning sounds to a normal person,” McCain wrote Sunday on the social platform X. “I’m sure she would have different feelings if she lived next to an apartment complex filled w/ Venezuelan gangs.” McCain, a leading media personality on the right, was referencing a question Raddatz asked Vance, former President Trump’s running mate, about whether...

Americans’ trust in the establishment media to report current events “fully, accurately and fairly” plummeted to a record low in 2024, Gallup polling found Monday. The decline in trust indicates the media lost credibility due to pushing false narratives, such as Hunter Biden’s laptop story, Russian collusion, the source of the 2020 pandemic, the January 6 investigation, and numerous hoaxes: As a result, only 31 percent of Americans have a “great deal” or “fair amount” of confidence in the media to tell the truth, one point below its low watermark of 32 percent in 2016 and 2023.

VIDEOOn October 15, exactly one month after the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump at his Palm Beach golf club, FBI lead investigator Jeffrey Veltri gave us an update on the progress of his investigation into this case. Since he gave the update from the Humorverse where everybody is forced to tell the absolute truth, his revelations were quite interesting.

Democrats are trying to cancel or at the very least spoil President Donald Trump's upcoming campaign event at Madison Square Garden in New York City, further evidencing their desperation in the final weeks before the election and their hostility toward American freedoms. New York state Sen. Brad Hoylman-Sigal, for instance, demanded last week that the arena dishonor its contract and cancel the Oct. 27 event, which he equated to a Nazi rally. Hoylman-Sigal failed in depriving his fellow New Yorkers of an opportunity to engage in the democratic process and hear live from their candidate; however, Lincoln Project co-founder George...
