    VIDEOThe wealthy liberal wife of failed Biden Regime National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan, Maggie Goodlander, walked confidently into a debate with her Republican opponent Lily Tang Williams for the Second Congressional District seat of New Hampshire. What she didn't know is that she would be facing a Tiger Lady and the results as you can see were BRUTAL. Yes, Goodlander has the advantage of overwhelming amounts of campaign money but what she didn't count on was the Tiger Lady's full on GUMPTION. And you can see the pain on her face from the ROASTING she got.

    Donald Trump and Kamala Harris are each offering a closing argument for securing your vote. I too have a closing argument. Kamala Harris is not particularly intelligent. She went to mediocre schools, both undergrad and law. She was accepted into law school under a hardship program: Vice President Kamala Harris was admitted to law school through University of California-San Francisco’s Legal Education Opportunity Program for students with “educational disadvantage, economic hardship, or disability,” according to the law school’s magazine. Despite both parents being tenured professors. She failed the bar on her first attempt. The UCSF Law School did not respond...

    Daily Readings from the USCCB“For this is the will of my Father, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in him may have eternal life, and I shall raise him on the last day.” John 6:40Yesterday’s Solemnity of All Saints gave us an opportunity to celebrate and rejoice in the fact that there are countless people who have gone before us who are now enjoying the glories of Heaven. These faithful souls lived lives that were grounded in God’s grace and have been fully purified of all sin. They now gaze at our good God face-to-face. Today, we commemorate...

    In the annual public surveys about trust and reputation, journalists and the media have regularly fallen near the very bottom, often just above Congress. But in this year’s Gallup poll, we have managed to fall below Congress. Our profession is now the least trusted of all. Something we are doing is clearly not working. Let me give an analogy. Voting machines must meet two requirements. They must count the vote accurately, and people must believe they count the vote accurately. The second requirement is distinct from and just as important as the first. Likewise with newspapers. We must be accurate,...
  • Bass Pro Shops vs. Patagonia: Choosing a side in the camping store divide

    There's nothing particularly political about camping. People across the ideological spectrum enjoy overnighting under the stars. But buying camping gear is a whole different story. Before you pitch your tent, you have to declare where you pitch your tent. Nowhere is this divide more pronounced than in the rivalry between retail behemoths Bass Pro Shops and Patagonia. troll into a Bass Pro Shops location, and you’re greeted with a rustic, log-cabin feel, stuffed bears, shotguns and rifles, and camo gear lining the shelves, soundtracked by the giant waterfall in the middle of the store. Head over to Patagonia, and you’re...
  • All Souls Day -- The Catholic Side of "Selling Indulgences" as Motive for the Reformation -- Pretext for a Looting Operation

    The dominant historical account of the issues and reasons behind the Protestant Reformation frequently features the sale of indulgences, relating to the now nearly-forgotten belief in the Catholic teaching on Purgatory. (Dominant narrative interpretation, by the victors in the change from medieval to modern world view, is that the fact that, in a minority of cases, indulgences were once sold, supposing to invalidate the Catholic belief in purgatory.) A minority view of these issues, presenting facts and situations generally, fully excluded from the dominant narrative, were presented by English Protestant, political dissenter against the majority, elite Whig account of history,...

    While digging to find an ancient settlement in southern Sweden, archaeologists made a completely unexpected discovery: an enormous Viking Age cemetery with more than 100 graves and several ship-shaped mounds...The cemetery was initially found in 2017 in the village of Tvååker, in southwestern Sweden, ahead of planned road construction. Although Tvååker is mentioned in historical sagas, the aboveground remains of this particular cemetery were lost to time until recently."The problem is that the land has been plowed and leveled to create pastures," Nordin said, "so all the occupation levels, above-ground remains, and burials have been plowed to pieces."During excavations carried...

    This time around, Hillary Clinton is not lamenting Republican ‘deplorables’. She has chosen instead, along with Kamala Harris, to label Donald Trump and his supporters as out-and-out fascists. Different words but the same meaning: anyone who backs the GOP candidate in next week’s US presidential election is an enabler for modern-day blackshirts or stormtroopers. But for many Americans, the real ‘deplorables’ are to be found among Harris’s backers, such as the tech oligarchs who dominate the economy, the financiers of Wall Street or the moguls of mainstream media. Think of the likes of Bill Gates, who just forked in $50million...

    Japan has been inhabited by people since about 35,000 years ago. Roughly 16,500 years ago a group of Neolithic hunter-gatherers, referred to as the "Jomon" culture, developed a complex society including the production of pottery and jewellery.About 3,000 years ago, rice cultivation in paddy fields was introduced to Japan. This saw the beginning of the Yayoi period which ended around the year 300 CE. After the Yayoi came the Kofun period (300–538 CE)...The authors note that the current consensus based on DNA evidence from modern Japanese people is that there was 2 or 3-way mixing between the indigenous Jomon people...

    A linchpin of the argument of those who favor a disarmed population is the assumption that “More Guns = More Crime.” It was succinctly stated as an assumption in a recent paper. Psychopathy, Gun Carrying, and Firearm Violence: Carrying guns increases the risk of injury and death…This is a hotly disputed assumption. Several papers dispute the premise. If carrying guns does not increase the risk of injury and death, the pragmatic argument for strict restrictions on gun ownership and use collapses. There is some evidence that if guns are restricted in a draconian manner, homicides with guns may be reduced....

    A 4,000-year-old copper dagger has been unearthed in northeastern Italy's Tina Jama Cave, according to a SciNews report. Federico Bernardini of Ca' Foscari University said that the dagger is similar to copper daggers uncovered in Slovenia. "The findings are essential for understanding the technological, cultural, and social transformations in Europe during that period," added Elena Leghissa of the Slovenian Academy of Sciences. "The discovery of the copper dagger is an exceptional event that raises questions about the cave's use," she added. A structure made of stone slabs and blocks between about 2000 and 1500 B.C. was also excavated near the...

    Barack Obama understands why Malia Obama wanted a stage name. When debuting her film The Heart at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival in February, the 26-year-old daughter of the former president and Michelle Obama opted to drop the last name Obama, instead using her middle name and going by Malia Ann. And according to Barack—who is also dad to Sasha Obama, 23—her choice didn't surprise him. "The challenge for us is letting us give them any help at all," Barack confessed on the Oct. 29 episode of The Pivot Podcast. "I mean they're very sensitive about this stuff. They're very...

    How many cases has Kamala Harris actually prosecuted in a courtroom? Despite her profile on the California Attorney General website stating she spent her “entire career in the trenches as a courtroom prosecutor,” the only available evidence shows her trying between seven and 15 felonies. They include a domestic violence scalping, one murder, armed robbery and two child sex crimes – though she claims to have taken hundreds of cases to court. No records are available from any of those cases, and the only one to have made the news was the 1996 scalping case. Harris started her career in...

    Just Stating the Obvious: Kamala and the Democrats purpose is to Replace Citizens Votes with Illegal Ones to Gain Control over America. And once Achieved, to implement their "Democracy" under their control alone. If you haven't noticed or paid attention, "IE the Democrats Press", you've seen the massive invasion of the Border Hoppers in the last two years. Each year it is described as "unprecedented". I call it OVERWHELMING. And along with that Kamala and her Democratic elites have been demanding they be given the right to vote in our national elections immediately. In fact, this is happening in Arizona...

    Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), a member of the progressive faction in the House referred to as the “Squad,” refused to back Vice President Kamala Harris during a Michigan United Auto Workers rally just days ahead of the election. With union workers forming a critical component of the Democratic base, Tlaib joined Reps. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) in rallying supporters in Detroit on Friday evening in a bid to shore up blue party support in the battleground state. Yet while Jayapal and Ocasio-Cortez urged workers to vote for Harris, Tlaib never mentioned her name. Tlaib has been a...
