Terrifying body camera video showed the moment US Marshals arrested an innocent Arizona grandmother under the barrel of a gun after mistaking her for a completely different person. The two-minute video, obtained by ABC15 after six months of hounding the federal government, showed rifle-wielding officers shouting commands at 66-year-old Penny McCarthy. McCarthy was confused and frightened during the March 5 incident, not even aware at first that she was being pursued by US Marshals. 'We have an arrest warrant,' a federal agent is heard saying on the video. 'For me?' McCarthy responded. 'Yes. For you,' the officer said. 'Who am...

Crossing the Grand Canyon (Lake V Gallego) I really haven’t spoken about Kari Lake and her bid to become the Senator for AZ this cycle, largely because the polling has consistently shown her opponent holding a fairly sizable lead. Polling has fairly consistently shown Gallego ahead by 4-5 points on average. I have always fount this to be a bit curious, given how close she came in 2022 to winning the AZ governorship, but I am not intimately familiar with AZ politics and have no contacts on the ground there to provide first hand accounts about the situation. Lake ran...

As Phoenix police deal with the fallout of the violent beating of a deaf man and face the threat of federal oversight, the department is now set to face a lawsuit after a man suffered third-degree burns across much of his body during a detainment. Michael Kenyon, who has not been charged with a crime for the incident, spent more than a month hospitalized with burns on his face, arms, chest, and legs. Some chunks of flesh are now missing from above his knees. Michael Kenyon 2.png Michael Kenyon “Phoenix police are demonstrating an utter disregard for human life over...

The program is being run using commercial airlines and is intended to be kept secret from the American people. (The information in this essay comes from first-hand interviews.) Last April, the Republican-led House Committee on Homeland Security caught the Harris-Biden administration spending your taxpayer dollars to fly military-age Hattian men into America. Charter flights would land in the middle of the night and discharge tens of thousands of illegals. Once caught, it stopped for a while. Now, Mumbles and Giggles have resumed the program in a way that costs you more, and all the illegal passengers are approved by the...

Two women were reportedly removed from a plane at Heathrow Airport when a fight broke out over a Make America Great Again (MAGA) cap. According to The Sun, the American passengers started arguing when one asked the other to remove the red hat - worn by supporters of Donald Trump - as they waited to board the British Airways (BA) flight in Terminal 5. The woman wearing the cap refused, at which point punches were exchanged and the pair were later escorted off the flight, the newspaper said. The Metropolitan Police told Sky News that officers at the airport were...

Meghan McCain ripped President Joe Biden Tuesday night after his off-the-cuff comments calling Donald Trump’s supporters “garbage.” Biden’s comments came in the final week of a tense campaign in which Vice President Kamala Harris has slowly but steadily fallen in the polls – and overshadowed a rally in which she made her final appeal to voters. The departing president in a Zoom call with the organization Voto Latino said “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters,” referencing Trump. The comment met quick condemnation from Republicans and a mixture of horror and denial from Democrats.

Since September 2022 – while Newsom had the state on full lockdown – California has lost a net 154,000 jobs in the private sector and gained 361,000 jobs in the public sector, according to California’s non-partisan Legislative Analyst’s Office.

A Catholic hospital in rural California agreed to provide emergency abortions after the state sued it, alleging it denied care to a woman who miscarried.

The Federalist uncovered a “coordinated astroturfing” campaign on Reddit by the dishonest Harris people. She’s desperate. She has volunteers posting and upvoting her content. The team appears to use a Discord server to coordinate posts, comments, and upvotes across various communities, which suggests organic support for the campaign. Volunteers send messages across Reddit, targeting young women, swing state voters and other key groups. The Federalist investigators say Harris volunteers posted 2,551 times in 15 days, earning 5.7 million upvotes and 418,000 comments. According to a report on The Federalist’s investigation, the Harris campaign has been executing a calculated “astroturfing” operation...

Kamala spoke at The Ellipse yesterday in D.C. Reports came out that dozens of buses brought in attendees. MSM said 75,000 people were there. This clear shot of the crowd looks to be under 10,000 to me. There any way (computer program?) to calculate the crowd size? I see maybe 15 porta-potties to the size. I'd imagine they have to have one per x number of people for permits.

A study from Tufts University found that daily consumption of pistachios can enhance eye health by increasing macular pigment optical density (MPOD), which helps protect against blue light and age-related eye damage. This benefit is attributed to pistachios’ unique content of lutein, a plant pigment essential for eye health and potentially useful in preventing age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Daily pistachios boost eye health by raising lutein, protecting against age-related damage, and supporting brain function. A recent study by researchers at Tufts University’s Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy suggests that eating pistachios daily may greatly benefit eye health. This...

CBS: You compared Trump supporters to Nazis. Biden called them "garbage." Hillary called them "deplorables." Doesn't that undercut your fake "unity" message? TIM WALZ: "No, certainly not."

The White House released a transcript of President Joe Biden’s remarks in which he called Trump supporters “garbage,” but added an apostrophe to “supporters” and two em-dashes to make it sound like he did not mean all Trump supporters but just one. The transcript read: And just the other day, a speaker at his rally called Puerto Rico a ‘floating island of garbage.’ Well, let me tell you something. I don’t — I — I don’t know the Puerto Rican that — that I know — or a Puerto Rico, where I’m fr- — in my home state of Delaware,...

A new species of amphipod with a unique panda pattern was found in the intertidal zone of the Japanese coast. Credit: Ko Tomikawa/Hiroshima University ========================================================================================= The Melita panda, a newly classified amphipod species found in Japan, illustrates the critical role of taxonomy in biodiversity conservation. Identified by unique panda-like coloring and confirmed through molecular and morphological analyses, this species contributes to our understanding of coastal biodiversity. A crustacean species with distinctive black-and-white markings, reminiscent of a panda, has been confirmed as new to science decades after its initial discovery in Japan. Known as Melitid amphipods, these shrimp-like crustaceans are found...

Joe Biden has landed on his closing argument for why Americans should elect Kamala Harris as the next president. That is, anyone who supports Donald Trump is human scum. The moment came during remarks the president gave on Tuesday while discussing the Hispanic community in America. In a video posted to X by NBC News Senior White House Correspondent Gabe Gutierrez on Tuesday night, Biden claimed Trump “has no character and “doesn’t give a damn about the Latino community.” The president referenced a joke told at Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally this past weekend, wherein comedian Tony Hinchcliffe poked fun...
