VIDEOEnjoy this compilation of dejected liberal utterly demoralized by Jack Smith dropping the Lawfare cases against President Donald Trump. All these liberals with the exception of one have the very depressed sad sads over the fact that a politically weaponized DOJ was unable to stop Trump. Yes, there is one happy liberal who has overdosed on Hopium and now thinks Jack Smith dropping the cases really means something very different from what we all think.

MOSCOW - Discussion in the West about arming Ukraine with nuclear weapons is "absolutely irresponsible", Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday, in response to a report in the New York Times citing unidentified officials who suggested such a possibility.The New York Times reported last week that some unidentified Western officials had suggested U.S. President Joe Biden could give Ukraine nuclear weapons before he leaves office."Several officials even suggested that Mr. Biden could return nuclear weapons to Ukraine that were taken from it after the fall of the Soviet Union. That would be an instant and enormous deterrent. But such...

Armenians, a population in Western Asia historically inhabiting the Armenian highlands, were long believed to be descendants of Phrygian settlers from the Balkans. This theory originated largely from the accounts of the Greek historian Herodotus, who observed that Armenians were armed in Phrygian fashion when serving in the Persian army. Linguists further supported this theory, suggesting that the Armenian language shares ties with the Thraco-Phrygian subgroup of Indo-European languages.But the first whole-genome study challenges this long-held belief, revealing no significant genetic link between Armenians and the populations in the Balkan region. The study compares newly generated modern Armenian genomes and...

Egg prices are rising once more as a lingering outbreak of bird flu coincides with the high demand of the holiday baking season. But prices are still far from the recent peak they reached almost two years ago.

The average price for a dozen eggs in U.S. cities was $3.37 in October, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics....

Walmart, the largest private employer in the United States, will curb some diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) efforts. It’s the latest company to backtrack on diversity initiatives in the face of right-wing pressure, and its decisions will reverberate across corporate America. The company said Monday it is ending racial equity training programs for staff and evaluating programs designed to increase supplier diversity. Walmart has worked to increase the number of suppliers that are at least 51% owned or managed by a woman, minority, veteran or someone who is LGBTQ in recent years. The company is also reviewing all funding of...

Ryan Routh, who is charged in the second assassinate attempt of Donald Trump, tied himself to the President-elect’s other would-be assassin, Thomas Crooks, in a bizarre letter from jail — in which he also ranted about the “two-party system.” Routh 58, sent the letter to Politico reporter Ankush Khardori from a federal detention center in Miami where he is awaiting trial after he allegedly tried to take out Trump at his Florida golf course earlier this year. In the four page letter, in which Routh refers to himself several times as the “Alleged Trump shooter,” he railed against the US’s...

A secret strategy paper clearly outlines the role of the economy should Putin attack in the east. The German army has concrete suggestions on how companies should prepare themselves. A new secret document, reported on by Germany's FAZ newspaper, spells out what this would mean - particularly for German businesses. The 1,000 or so page document lists every location - from bridges to power plants - that could be vulnerable to an attack in the event of a more direct confrontation with Russia. Earlier this year, Defence Minister Boris Pistorius warned that Germany must be ready for the possibility of...

If you thought DC was a totalitarian swamp land, wait till you find out about Sacramento! California, the golden state, the former land of opportunity, is hiring. But only the state itself appears to be hiring. No one's doing business there. UNREAL. Here's more to put that in perspective from the Hoover Institute: Between January 2022 and June 2024, employment in US private businesses increased by about 7.32 million jobs. Of these 7.32 million jobs, about 5,400 were jobs created in California businesses — representing about .07 percent of the US figure. California's total population is about 11-12% of the...

It appears that Elon and Vivek are focused on eliminating unnecessary staff to obtain long-overdue budget cuts. They should not stop there however. There are huge amounts of egregious furnishings in these government departments. They should be confiscating it and sending it to government auction houses, with the proceeds going ONLY to national debt reduction. Here are some examples: Apparently in the DOJ there is a $70k conference table. Seize this and replace it with folding tables and plastic chairs. Seize all leather office chairs and hardwood desks and replace them with the cheapest stuff possible. Except for law enforcement,...

Daily Readings from the USCCBWhile some people were speaking about how the temple was adorned with costly stones and votive offerings, Jesus said, “All that you see here—the days will come when there will not be left a stone upon another stone that will not be thrown down.” Luke 21:5–6In a literal way, this prophecy of our Lord came true.

There will be false prophets, wars and insurrections,...

The pleas for donations sparked outrage on social media, as memories of the massive $1 billion Kamala Harris campaign spending spree were still fresh, including millions of dollars spent to host celebrity filled town halls for the vice president. Two-thirds of DNC staffers were laid off as part of the downsizing on Wednesday, with only one day's notice and no severance, according to the union.
