A government scientist in the Polis administration is accused of intentionally reporting inaccurate testing data pertaining to certain metals in the state’s drinking water since 2020. But not to worry, state officials assure Denver news outlets in a written statement. Only smaller systems in about 3% of Colorado’s drinking water systems were affected. So, if you are in that 3%, it may or may not suck to be you. More on that in a minute. The chemist was busted for manipulating data that impacted thousands of water samples back in December, but a “culture of fear” delayed any response to...

President Biden has given the Pentagon the green light to ship antipersonnel land mines to Ukraine — a policy the commander in chief once called “reckless.” “While we have provided anti-tank mines throughout the conflict, the Biden-Harris Administration will soon provide Ukraine with non-persistent antipersonnel land mines (APLs) as well,” a US official told The Post. The official noted that the explosive devices differ from the ones Russia is using because they become “inert after a pre-set period of time (anywhere from 4 hours to 2 weeks)” and will not detonate when their battery power runs out, theoretically making them...

Remember the names of these Chinese bishopsWhat would John Paul II do?In the annals of historical boorishness, it would be hard to find something more egregious than the Holy See’s timing as it renewed its 2018 agreement with the People’s Republic of China, which allows the Chinese Communist party a significant role in the appointment of Catholic bishops. That renewal took place on October 22: the liturgical memorial of Pope St. John Paul II, whose defense of religious freedom helped bring down European communism, and whose burning desire to visit China was repulsed by a Communist regime that obviously feared...

Nancy Pelosi's daughter said she was 'curing' ballots in a California congressional district where the Republican candidate saw his lead drop by hundreds of votes in recent days. Christine Pelosi, one of the former House speaker's four daughters, posted a video Tuesday saying she was traveling to the Golden State's 13th congressional district, where the race between Republican John Duarte and Democrat Adam Gray has tightened. 'My life, my love is curing ballots with my friends, I can't wait to get on the road the again,' the 58-year-old is heard singing to the tune of Willie Nelson's classic. symbol 00:09...

President-elect Trump on Wednesday tapped former Acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker to become U.S. ambassador to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) in his new administration. Trump described Whitaker, who is from Iowa, as "a strong warrior and loyal Patriot, who will ensure the United States' interests are advanced and defended." "Matt will strengthen relationships with our NATO Allies, and stand firm in the face of threats to Peace and Stability - He will put AMERICA FIRST," Trump said in a statement. "I have full confidence in Matt’s ability to represent the United States with Strength, Integrity, and unwavering Dedication....

It was back in 2021 when the Los Angeles Times reported on how "far-right rage over transgender rights at an L.A. spa led to chaos in the streets." Those transgender rights included the right for a biological male to expose himself to young girls in the women-only section of Wi Spa in Los Angeles, and the chaos in the streets came from Antifa. As it turns out, the "woman" whose rights were being denied was a registered sex offender and was arrested after more than 15 months on the run from five felony counts of indecent exposure. Now, Seattle's Jason...

Laken Riley killer Jose Ibarra found guilty on all 10 counts. Audible cries heard in the courtroom from Laken's family.

A radical environmental group uses millions of dollars from liberal dark money groups to try and teach climate activists how to talk like human beings. The organization, Potential Energy Coalition, a 501(c)(3), says it “creates and executes marketing campaigns grounded in deep analytics and human-centric stories that are proven to persuade.” One of Potential Energy’s projects is the “Talk Like a Human” campaign, an attempt to change messaging on climate change. A slide of this presentation obtained by The Daily Wire shows the group encouraging people not to use words like “climate change” or “warming,” and instead use “extreme weather”...

Daily Readings from the USCCB“A nobleman went off to a distant country to obtain the kingship for himself and then to return. He called ten of his servants and gave them ten gold coins and told them, ‘Engage in trade with these until I return.’ His fellow citizens, however, despised him and sent a delegation after him to announce, ‘We do not want this man to be our king.’” Luke 19:12–14There are three categories of people in this parable. The first includes those who received a gold coin and followed the master’s request to “engage in trade” until he returned....

Sen. Lindsey Graham (S.C.) urged his fellow Republican senators Wednesday not to join what he called the “lynch mob” calling for former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) to withdraw his nomination to serve as attorney general because of allegations of sexual misconduct and illicit drug use. “I fear the process surrounding the Gaetz nomination is turning into an angry mob, and unverified allegations are being treated as if they are true. I have seen this movie before,” Graham, the ranking Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee, said in a statement released after he met with Gaetz and Vice President-elect JD Vance....

Exactly two weeks after Donald J. Trump defeated Kamala Harris in both the popular vote and the electoral college, David Hogg met with “researchers and activists” to figure out how to lure young men back to the Democrat Party. On Tuesday Hogg posted to X: Hogg’s concern comes after numerous minority voters and younger voters moved toward Trump in the 2024 election. Writing at Real Clear Politics, Manhattan Institute Paulson Policy Analyst Neetu Arnold pointed out that Hispanics and Asian Americans “shifted to the right” and voted for Trump. While the percentage that these demographics shifted varied from state t0...

AChicago woman is fighting to keep her home after a government mix-up led officials to sell her house from underneath her on account of supposedly "delinquent taxes." Robin McElroy bought her home in the Morgan Park area of Chicago back in 2012. Since then, she said she has paid the taxes owed on the property and even kept receipts of her payments. "I do not like wasting money. ... I pay my bills," McElroy told CBS News. Despite those consistent payments, in 2019, McElroy began receiving notices that her property taxes were in arrears and that her property was in...

The expansion of China’s amphibious force is nothing short of historic. A decade ago, China had no large amphibious platforms. Now it has four big flat-decked amphibs alongside a force of nine landing platform docks (LPDs), and will soon welcome the biggest amphibious assault ships in the world. This is a rate of increase reminiscent of the great dreadnought races of the early 20th century, when Britain, Japan, Germany, and the United States built up spectacular fleets of large battleships in not much more than a decade. However, it is also one-sided; American shipbuilding has shown no inclination to try...

Prospective car buyers considering an electric vehicle may need to act fast to get a Biden-era EV tax credit worth up to $7,500, due to the likelihood that President-elect Donald Trump and Republicans on Capitol Hill will axe those savings in tax negotiations next year, according to auto and legal experts. “There’s no question there’s real risk in the EV credit going away” in 2025, said Jamie Wickett, a partner at law firm Hogan Lovells who specializes in federal tax policy, energy and the environment. “If you’re a consumer in the market for an EV, I would without a doubt...

The two Jordanian nationals were previously released on bail. The Biden-Harris administration's Department of Justice has quietly and mysteriously dropped the charges against two Jordanian nationals who allegedly attempted to breach a Virginia military base in May.

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) has privately committed to back an effort led by Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) to block biological men from using women’s restrooms in the U.S. Capitol. Mace announced Monday she would introduce a resolution to ban transgender women (biological men) from using biological women’s restrooms at the U.S. Capitol. Johnson, during Tuesday morning’s weekly House Republican Conference meeting, said transgender women won’t be allowed to use women’s restrooms in the Capitol, Politico reported. “He said there’s not going to be any biological men using our restrooms,” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) told Politico. Mace confirmed Greene’s account,...
