This link to the Internet Archive proves that MSNBC chose to give one of its news articles the heading, “Laken Riley’s killer never stood a chance.”https://web.archive.org/web/20241122002957/https://www.msnbc.com/opinion/analysis/nursing-student-laken-riley-murder-guilty-jose-ibarra-rcna181256I also took this screenshot from that same link:

On the 19th, the group of 35 Cristeros retreated to El Moral, a cave where they sought refuge after two of their men – Jesus Zambrano and Juan...

President-elect Trump’s nomination for labor secretary is a “toxic” anti-conservative RINO with cozy ties to unions, outraged critics told The Post Saturday. During her single term on the Hill, Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer (R-Ore.) has backed a laundry list of boiler-plate liberal policies at odds with longstanding Republican orthodoxies, including strengthening unions’ efforts to organize the private sector, amnesty for illegal immigrants, and championing expanding government employee unions. “The signaling effect alone from this nomination would be that the Trump administration is not serious about deregulation or economic growth,” Ken Girardin, labor expert at the conservative Empire Center for Public Policy,...

So I get a call from my son at about 7:30 am. He’s freaking out wondering of something happened here since (according to him) I made 2 calls at approximately 1:28 am. He assumed something must have been wrong for me to be calling so late, but we chalked it up to an infamous ‘butt dial’. But wait: I was pretty sure I was in bed before then, and made that pretty clear. I then after checking my phone history I said, “can you check the number that actually called you, since I have no record of it on my...

Stock trading is such a huge part of congress. It shouldn’t be. I can’t wait to tell all these stories of corruption, treason and betrayal. Coming soon.

MSNBC claimed that “Laken Riley’s killer never stood a chance” in the murder trial, sparking immediate backlash. It has since revised its headline to cushion the language — though it is equally twisted. “Laken Riley’s killer never stood a chance,” reads the original headline.“The guilt of Laken Riley’s killer was never in doubt,” reads the new headline. Apparently, MSNBC hopes readers will give the outlet a pass for repeatedly defending Riley’s savage murderer, Jose Ibarra.Ibarra attacked Riley, a 22-year-old student at the Augusta University College of Nursing, while she was jogging in February. He tried to rape her, but she...

1) My windows 10 or now 11 did a windows update last night and somehow it completely lost Realtek audio so I no longer have sound. Tried downloading Realtek but no luck myself or a computer guy. Any suggestions, please. 2) Bought a new windows 11 and can't remember how to do anything. How do I put links to my favorite sites in a bar across the top of the screen so I don't have to search for them every time. There is no bar currently on the new computer. 3) I understand there is a way to get the...

Let us first look at Sacred Scripture to get a view of the Heavenly War: And a great sign appeared in heaven: A woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars:

~ GIVING THANKS ~ Psalm 92:1 - 5 1 It is a good thing to give thanks unto the LORD, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High: 2 To shew forth thy loving kindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night, 3 Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the harp with a solemn sound. 4 For thou, LORD, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands. 5 O LORD, how great are thy works! and thy thoughts are very deep." Psalm 95:1 -...

This New York Times “gotcha” is about as sharp as a soggy bowl of breakfast cereal. The Times was relentlessly mocked over the weekend for appearing to unintentionally make Robert F. Kennedy Jr.‘s case in a recent article that tried to poke holes in his anti-processed-food crusade. Kennedy, President-elect Donald Trump’s pick to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, has long pushed for purging artificial ingredients from the food supply, routinely calling such additives “poison.” The Times on Friday ran a story positing that the Kennedy scion’s stance while potentially leading the agency could put him on a...

The heartless crook accused of stealing a gold-plated rose from a 9/11 memorial at a Midtown Catholic church was arrested Friday for the unholy crime, according to the NYPD. Deikel Alcantara, 21, was turned over to police by his father and charged with grand larceny for allegedly pilfering a $3,000 rose — forged of metal from Ground Zero and plated in gold — from a shrine inside the Church of St. Francis of Assisi on Wednesday, police and sources said. The memorial at the West 31st Street house of worship honors all the lives lost in the terrorist attacks on...

Ireland is set to become the next country to face a major threat to its power grid due to the rapid expansion of artificial intelligence. Dublin has emerged as the heart of Europe’s data center hub, and hyperscale cloud providers have quickly become a pillar of the country’s economy. But powering the data centers that house the cloud has become a monumental task with the runaway growth of AI.Artificial intelligence requires a stunning amount of energy to train and power its complex computation systems. Currently, the approximate amount of energy needed to sustain the sector’s growth is doubling every 100...

The Pentagon is facing a difficult decision regarding the F-35’s chronic, crippling problems with overheating brought on by its insufficient cooling capacity.Should the U.S. taxpayers pay for a costly upgrade to the stealth fighter’s cooling that will handle its immediate needs, or should U.S. taxpayers pay for a far more expensive upgrade that theoretically could handle increased future cooling needs?Before we briefly address the two options facing the Pentagon, let’s look at why cooling capacity is so important for the F-35 and why the most expensive weapons system program in world history produced a plane that was destined to have...

President-elect Donald Trump has said he intends to cut government spending by reasserting the presidential power of impoundment, a move certain to spark a court battle and one that could redefine presidential power for decades to come. Impoundment occurs when the president chooses not to disburse funds authorized by Congress; instead leaving them unspent in the U.S. Treasury.This power is not mentioned in the Constitution but has been employed by presidents since Thomas Jefferson. Congress enacted limits on the practice 50 years ago.Now, Trump intends to challenge the Impoundment Control Act of 1974 (ICA), which he believes is unconstitutional.“I will...

Gov. Josh Shapiro was almost selected as Kamala Harris’s running mate, and he wants to be president more than Phillies fans want to win the World Series. As he reflects on the 2024 election, what does he see? How will the lessons he draws affect his governorship, his budget, and how he leads the state?Donald Trump carried Pennsylvania, all of the “blue wall” states, and a majority of the popular vote. Incumbent Vice President Kamala Harris – with over $1 billion in campaign cash and the open support of most of legacy media and Hollywood – got less votes than...

Illegal immigration activists are already panicked that Donald Trump will keep one of his biggest campaign promises. Trump recently announced that Tom Homan will be his "border czar." Homan isn't a household name, but he's had a long career in government. Homan was the acting head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement during Trump's first term. He was also ICE's executive associate director of enforcement and removal operations under President Barack Obama. Trump wants him to put those skills to use. "Tom Homan will be in charge of all Deportation of Illegal Aliens back to their Country of Origin," Trump wrote...

Popular podcaster Joe Rogan joined the fun Friday evening, telling Elon Musk whose timeslot he wants should he pull the trigger and purchase MSNBC.As our colleague Nick Arama reported, the network has been enduring considerable upheaval.
