Posting for Hawley's SAVAGE opening at about the 2:35 mark. "Thank you to the reporters for being here. You know, it takes a little bit of courage to share a stage with Lucas Kunce after he shot a reporter last week." LOLOLOL!

North Korea will back Russia until it achieves victory in Ukraine, Foreign Minister Choe Son Hui said in Moscow as the United States warned thousands of Pyongyang’s troops were at the Ukrainian border and could soon be deployed into combat. In her meeting on Friday with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, Choe also accused the US and South Korea of plotting a nuclear strike against her country. “Our traditional, historically friendly relations, which have travelled the tested path of history, today … are rising to a new level of relations of invincible military comradeship,” she said, praising the role played...

“Yes, I do. Yes, I do.” No, this wasn’t a response from the vice president to a “marriage proposal.” Rather, such was the refrain of Kamala Harris (the Democratic candidate for president) who has apparently entered the “Trump is a fascist” phase of her wilting campaign. Asked at a CNN town hall whether she thinks Donald Trump is a fascist, Harris was not content with one “Yes, I do;” it took two. She went on to say that while it is true that the American people care about the economy, they “also care about our democracy and not having a...

Daily Readings from the USCCBWhen Jesus saw the crowds, he went up the mountain, and after he had sat down, his disciples came to him. He began to teach them, saying: “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the Kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 5: 1–3Today we celebrate one of the most glorious solemnities within our Church! Every saint, canonized or not, is honored today. Our Gospel passage lays out the path by which these saints entered Heaven. While on earth, these great men and women lived lives that were poor in spirit, filled with a holy mourning, meekness,...

Students Say Trump Quote is “Racist” UNTIL They Realize Obama Said It

Another statue of former President Donald Trump appeared in Philadelphia Thursday — the second in as many days — except larger and more obscene. The detailed 40-foot naked Trump effigy hung by crane on Kensington Avenue to the curiosity, disgust and delight of passersby. The statue looks like one that went up in Madison, which was part of a “Crooked and Obscene Tour,” the Capital Times reported. In the past month, the statue has made appearances in Las Vegas, Detroit and Phoenix. According to the Detroit Free Press, the statue is made of foam and rebar and weighs about 6,000...

MARK DAVIS is one of the most successful radio talk show hosts in America. More than 40 years of hosting, the majority in his native Texas, has established him as a foremost conservative voice both locally and nationally.

On Thursday’s broadcast of WBUR’s “Here and Now,” Managing Director of the Immigration Defense Unit at the San Francisco Public Defender’s Office Francisco Ugarte stated that if 2024 Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump is elected the “idea that Trump could just simply get away with engaging in mass deportation without any semblance of a resistance is really kind of far-fetched.” And cited California’s Supreme Court saying that ICE agents shouldn’t be in courthouses because that deters people from going to court as an example of this.

CLAIM: Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign implied former President Donald Trump called for Liz Cheney to be put before a firing squad. FACT CHECK: False. Trump’s comments on “guns trained on her face” were about Cheney stoking foreign wars without being willing to fight in their front lines. Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign took former President Donald Trump’s words out of context, to suggest that he was calling for Liz Cheney to be put before a firing squad. Her campaign posted a video of Trump speaking to Tucker Carlson on X/Twitter, with a caption that paraphrased him:

U.S. — A special edition of the Amazon Echo was announced today featuring a brand new "Kamalexa" A.I. voice. Based on current Vice President Kamala Harris, the smart device responds to your questions in long, incoherent sentences, and is explicitly programmed to never actually give you any answers. In a new commercial for the device, a woman asks Kamalexa what the weather is like for the day. "Weather," Kamalexa responds. "Weather is big. Weather is exciting. Did you know files are stored in the cloud? Your files, they're all up there, up in the cloud. Hahaha. So, the climate...

Has Francis abandoned Christianity altogether?Young people in Singapore went to listen to a man whom they were told was the pope. They went with open hearts to listen to one whom they believed had God-given authority to teach them. They trusted him, and he betrayed them.Pope Francis gestures to the sky, during a meeting with Scholas Occurrentes in Jakarta.Certainly such attempts can nowise be approved by Catholics, founded as they are on that false opinion which considers all religions to be more or less good and praiseworthy, since they all in different ways manifest and signify that sense which is...

Former President Donald Trump is attracting massive crowds as the election barrels down and he travels coast to coast. Trump has taken no days off, traveling across the country and sometimes holding multiple events a day. He’ll be in more states. On Thursday, he’s literally traveling all over the country, hitting every single battleground state — Pennsylvania, Georgia, again, he’ll be in North Carolina, Nevada, Arizona, Michigan, and Wisconsin — all over the next seven days,” Trump campaign press secretary Karoline Leavitt said during an appearance on Breitbart News Daily earlier this week. “So it’s a busy schedule. We’ve been...

Green politicians from across Europe on Friday called on U.S. Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein to withdraw from the race for the White House and endorse Democrat Kamala Harris instead.“We are clear that Kamala Harris is the only candidate who can block Donald Trump and his anti-democratic, authoritarian policies from the White House,” Green parties from countries including Germany, France, Denmark, Italy, the Netherlands, Ireland, Estonia, Belgium, Spain, Poland and Ukraine said in a statement, which was shared with POLITICO ahead of publication.

An experimental eye implant could be the secret to restoring a patient’s central vision—the part of our eye that lets us see faces, details, and letters more clearly. Many patients now using the implant as part of a clinical trial have reported successful results. The implant was developed by Science Corporation, a competitor to Elon Musk’s Neuralink, which Musk plans to use to merge humans and AI together. The company announced preliminary results for its latest clinical trial this week, reporting that some study participants can now see well enough to read from books, play cards, and more. All of...

VIDEO AT LINK................... The Orlando Police Department has arrested 17-year-old Jaylen Dwayne Edgar as the suspected shooter at a Halloween celebration killing two people and injuring six others. Police released security footage and body cam footage of the terrifying scene showing Edgar walking through a crowd in downtown Orlando in the area of Orange Avenue and Central Boulevard around 1 a.m. Friday morning. "Within minutes, a second shooting was witnessed by officers south of Washington Street on Orange Avenue," the Orlando police said in a news release. Dressed in a yellow T-shirt and jeans and wearing a backpack, Edgar is...

A way to link carbon rings thought impossible for a century has now been done, and could have medical applications. For exactly 100 years, chemists have considered double bonds impossible – or nearly so – in organic chemistry under specific circumstances. Known as Bredt’s rule, this axiom was based not on theory, but decades of previous observations of molecules where such bonds were lacking. Confidence was high enough that it has widely been published in textbooks. New research shows it’s not true, and will encourage chemists to look for molecules they previously thought couldn’t exist. Carbon is such an immensely...

Two people have been killed and six injured after a gunman opened fire in Orlando while thousands of people were out celebrating Halloween. A 17-year-old suspect, Jaylen Dwayne Edgar, has been arrested after gunshots were heard in two different locations and he was tackled by police, according to police Chief Eric Smith. Edgar was previously arrested for grand theft in 2023. 'He pretty much walked into downtown, walked into the street and did what he did,' Chief Smith said, adding that the teen suspect did not walk into any clubs. Horrifying video shows hundreds of people running for their lives...

This election is the most important election of our lifetime. The fate of America depends on this election. A Trump victory is essential to defense of freedom of speech, secure borders, safe cities and sensible spending. 一 Elon Musk

Campaign seasons rarely provide opportunities to discuss issues, but the last week of the 2024 election has yielded a surprisingly enlightened discussion — on the left — about who is to blame for the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The first comments came from Van Jones, the veteran left-wing community organizer who is a strident partisan on cable news panels but also one of the few people who will speak honestly about the Democrats’ weaknesses as well. Jones appeared on Jonah Platt’s new podcast, Being Jewish, to discuss the relationships between blacks and Jews. At one point, he made the rare but...

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) is facing criticism over a campaign mailer featuring a nonsensical Arabic translation of election information, including the last day voters can cast their ballot. The campaign leaflet features Arabic script in which the characters appear in reverse order and are disconnected, deviating from standard Arabic script requirements. The mistake drew attention after Ahmed Shihab-Eldin, a journalist, criticized the gaffe on X (formerly Twitter). He remarked that the disorganized script was emblematic of Ocasio-Cortez’s disconnect with Arab voters. The incorrect Arabic also drew comments from Meir Javedanfar, an Iranian studies professor at Reichman University. He equated the...
