With a highly contentious election just around the corner, Democrats are continuing to use dire rhetoric against Americans for voting red. Late last week, New York’s Democratic governor Kathy Hochul, an ally of Vice President and Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris, told Republican voters, “You’re anti-woman, you’re anti-abortion, and basically you’re anti-American because you have just trashed American values and what our country is all about over and over and over.” Republican Rep. Elise Stefanik (N.Y.) responded to Hochul, “First, they called us ‘Deplorables.’ Then, they called us ‘Nazis.’ Then, Joe Biden called us ‘garbage.’ Then, they said no ‘strong...

CNN — Voters in Dixville Notch have cast the first votes in the New Hampshire primary, with all six voters choosing former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley. “A great start to a great day in New Hampshire,” Haley said in a statement reacting to the vote minutes after it was recorded. “Thank you Dixville Notch!” The tiny town in northern New Hampshire opened and closed its poll just after midnight ET on the morning of the state’s primary. Four registered Republican voters and two independents participated in the vote, in which former President Donald Trump, the front-runner for the GOP...

Pro-life experts have sent out their final warnings to the 10 states that have abortion-related initiatives on the ballot. Family Research Council has put together a Life on the Ballot resource to help educate voters about what these measures entail in Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New York, and South Dakota. “[W]hat’s so critical about these,” guest host and former Congressman Jody Hice stated, is that they “are constitutional referendums” that enshrine abortion as a fundamental right in these state’s constitutions. “[C]ertainly,” he added, “all Bible-believing Christ followers in those states [need] to go out and vote...

The imminent US election has been a constant source of anxiety for me. The prospect of a literal fascist returning to the White House has triggered my self-diagnosed PTSD. I haven’t been this distressed since my niece spat out the puberty blockers I smuggled into her rusks. Donald Trump has consistently sown division and hatred. In this election campaign there have been three assassination attempts against Trump, thereby proving irrefutably that he is guilty of inciting violence. If Trump continues to speak in public, no doubt more innocent people will be goaded into attempting to shoot him, thereby putting themselves...

The Harris-Walz campaign has not been shy in its push for abortion. It has been a major emphasis for the ticket this election cycle, with both Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris and her running mate and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz openly supporting abortion with no limits. According to Family Research Council President Tony Perkins, the Left, including the Harris-Walz campaign, have continuously told “deceptive, incomplete, [and] sometimes flat-out false narratives to give lift to Kamala Harris’s talking point on what she calls ‘Trump’s abortion bans,’ which are the pro-life laws of states.” On Thursday’s episode of “Washington Watch,” Dr. Donna...

I have discovered a route that will take me from New York State to Kansas City without driving a single mile on either I-70 or I-80. I make this trip twice a year now, most recently in the first week of October. This trip was particularly invigorating, as my side trip to the William McKinley boyhood home in Niles, Ohio, allowed me to avoid the interstate loop around Cleveland. Enhancing the splendid natural scenery of eastern Ohio, at least in my eyes, was the astonishing array of Trump signs posted in front of homes both regal and humble.These signs outnumbered...

A Denver cardiologist has been sentenced to 158 years in prison for drugging and raping several Colorado women he met on dating apps. The sentencing judge castigated 36-year-old “narcissistic monster” and former doctor Stephen Matthews at his Friday hearing for luring 10 women to his west Denver townhouse, spiking their drinks and then raping eight of them between 2019 and 2023, according to CBS News. “Evidence in this case is overwhelming,” Judge Eric Johnson said, addressing the convicted creep directly. “You have diminished this world.” Former cardiologist-turned-serial rapist Stephen Matthews has landed life behind bars. Matthews’ victims and their families...

Lead exposure is a risk to any human, but children are most vulnerable to the element's neurotoxicity, which can lead to developmental delays, learning difficulties and mood changes among other symptoms. There has been some progress in reducing exposure and preventing neurotoxicity, but hundreds of thousands of American children are still affected. A new study by neuroscientist Jay Schneider, Ph.D., suggests that the toxic effects of lead can be mitigated by attentive maternal care and an enriched environment in an animal model. Dr. Schneider had previously shown that rats living in an enriched environment—larger cages with toys and climbing structures—experienced...

As former President Donald Trump kicked off his four-rally tour across three states on Monday in Raleigh, North Carolina, many seats sat empty in the 5,000-seat J.S. Dorton Arena, marking the start of his final campaign push. Trump addressed his supporters in a 90-minute speech, covering familiar topics like his proposed tough immigration policies. He mentioned potential tariffs on Mexico if it doesn't assist with border control and aired grievances against his Democratic opponents. Empty seats were evident at the rally, with social media users and Vice President Kamala Harris' Rapid Response team highlighting them despite Trump's frequent boasts about...

Topically applied products containing human platelet extract or vitamin C provide similar improvements in age spots (photoaging) of the hands, as reported in a clinical trial. Brown spots on the hands, sometimes referred to as age spots or liver spots, are a common cosmetic issue caused by sun damage to the skin. Treatments for skin rejuvenation and resurfacing—such as chemical peels, injectables, and intense pulsed light or laser treatments—have primarily focused on the face. The study included 60 patients, average age 52.5 years, with moderate photoaging on the back (dorsum) of the hand. Each patient followed a standardized skincare routine,...

X owner Elon Musk predicted that former President Donald Trump would emerge victorious this week against Vice President Kamala Harris. The prediction comes as Musk has given significant resources to help boost Trump in the election, has spoken at rallies with the former president, and has campaigned for him in swing states. “ Last election, I didn’t know a single independent/swing voter who was voting for Trump,” Musk began. “This time, I don’t know anyone who isn’t,” he said. “And one person after another has confided in me that they’re voting for Trump, but they’re afraid to say so publicly,...

In 2017, Leaders McConnell and Schumer received a letter pleading for the protection of the filibuster, the sixty-vote threshold needed to end debate and advance legislation. The letter noted the preservation of the filibuster would ensure the Senate could continue “to serve as the world’s greatest deliberative body.” It was signed by then-Senator Kamala Harris. Presidential candidate Harris is of a different mind. Last week, in an interview with Wisconsin Public Radio, Harris declared that she wants to “eliminate the filibuster for Roe and get us to the point where fifty-one votes would be what we need to actually put...

KAPOLEI (Hawaii News Now) -- The race for the White House is reaching local classrooms and one lesson has some parents raising their eyebrows. The controversy is over a two-page document that was handed out to classrooms at Kapolei Middle School. It broke down where the U.S. presidential candidates — Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris and Republican former President Donald Trump — stand on the issues. The state Department of Education confirms the document was put together by a group of teachers at the school who simplified the information in a candidate comparison article in the New York Times. The...

On Monday’s broadcast of CNN’s “AC360,” House Speaker Emerita Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) responded to questions about why 2024 Democratic presidential candidate Vice President Kamala Harris didn’t do what she promises to do if elected during her tenure as Vice President by stating that “She did.” But also said that Harris has “a message of hope for the future, a new way forward.”

Sam's Club offers members an embarrassment of riches regarding food options. From prepared meals to baked goods like fall pies, members can complete their weekly grocery runs at their local warehouse, stocking up their refrigerators and pantries with many items sold in bulk. Equally as impressive is Sam's Club's array of frozen foods, including appetizers, entrées, desserts, and everything in between.

OPINION If Kamala Harris wins the presidency this November, America will see its most radical pro-abortion rights administration yet. Abortion has been Harris' most passionately fought issue — from her days as a U.S. senator to vice president and now as a pillar of her campaign. But this agenda is bigger than Harris and her running mate; it's a nationwide push backed by the Biden-Harris administration, pro-abortion rights lawmakers, and powerful lobbying forces aiming to bring elective abortion up to birth into every corner of the country — even the most conservative, rural communities. The abortion industry’s mission? Reinstate Roe...

A man in the UK has been found guilty after causing a “forced abortion” upon a woman at 15 weeks gestation, by drugging her with the abortion pill. Stuart Worby, 40, reportedly obtained and then crushed the abortion drug mifepristone into her orange juice. He also sexually assaulted the woman and forced more mifepristone into her without her knowledge. The woman was 15 weeks pregnant when her preborn child died as a result of the assault. After the victim suffered significant cramping and heavy bleeding, she checked herself into a hospital, where it appeared she had suffered a miscarriage. However,...
