Delaware County, [Pennsylvania] prosecutors announced charges Thursday against a Collingdale woman who they say repeatedly tried to submit voter registration forms for dead people and against an elderly man who cast ballots in both Florida and Pennsylvania last month. The charges are the first to come from the county’s investigations into alleged voter fraud and irregularities in the 2024 election. Despite President-elect Donald Trump’s loud and persistent claims of Philadelphia-area voter fraud before the election, few charges have been filed more than a month after ballots were counted. Delaware County officials said that the election was safe and secure, and...

The Washington Commanders’ plan for a new stadium in Washington, D.C., needs a recalibration. The U.S. House of Representatives avoided a government shutdown by passing legislation that will extend funding into mid-March. However, the bill no longer includes language that would transfer control of the RFK campus in the nation’s capital from the federal government to the District. The initial terms in a continuing resolution announced on Tuesday did include language that previously passed House and Senate committees, and would grant the District administrative control of the 174-acre campus for 99 years and allow D.C. to build a stadium along...

A top aide on Vice President Harris’ failed presidential campaign recently called for more cultural voices like the vocal anti-America and anti-Israel Twitch star, Hasan Piker, who previously faced backlash for saying that “America deserved 9/11.” Harris’ former deputy campaign manager, Rob Flaherty, said during a recent interview that Democrats are “losing hold of culture” and laid out a strategy for them to develop a “whole thriving system” ahead of future elections. “We need a whole thriving ecosystem,” Flaherty told Semafor. “It’s not just Pod Save America, though I think we should have more of them. It’s not just Hasan...

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton claimed that Republicans were “taking orders from the world’s richest man,” Elon Musk, regarding a failed continuing resolution (CR). In a post on X, Clinton accused Republicans of being “on course to shut down the government over the holidays.” “If you’re just catching up: the Republican Party, taking orders from the world’s richest man, is on course to shut down the government over the holidays, stopping paychecks for our troops and nutrition benefits for low-income families just in time for Christmas,” Clinton wrote in her post.

• Last-minute deal: The House has passed a stopgap funding bill just hours before a midnight deadline to avert a federal government shutdown. It now heads to the Senate for approval. • What’s in the deal: The latest plan would extend government funding into March and includes disaster relief and farming provisions, but does not include a suspension of the debt limit, which President-elect Donald Trump has been demanding that Republicans address. The House voted 366 to 34 to approve the measure. More Democrats than Republicans supported the stopgap bill, which required a two-thirds majority. All the "No" votes came...

[H/T Grey_whiskers]The spike proteins shouldn't be there. It's possible that vaccine genetic material has integrated with human DNA, causing long-term spike production. The Yale team will publish its findings soon.Yale University scientists have found Covid spike protein in the blood of people who received Covid mRNA shots - up to two years after they received the jabs.The people were never infected with Covid, antibody tests show, and our immune systems rapidly destroy newly produced spike proteins. The finding suggests some people who took the shots may be making the proteins on their own. SNIP SOURCE—Some vaccine-skeptical researchers have previously suggested...

A Virginia college student is accused of plotting a "mass casualty attack" on the Consulate General of Israel in New York, according to court records. The FBI arrested Abdullah Ezzeldin Taha Mohamed Hassan, 18, a student at George Mason University, this week in connection with the alleged plot targeting Jews, court records show. The case began in May, when the Fairfax County Police Department informed the agency of an anonymous tip reporting an X account that engaged in "radical and terrorist-leaning behavior," according to an affidavit in support of the criminal complaint and arrest warrant filed against Hassan in U.S....

Intel's (INTC) fall from grace seemed to happen all at once. Shares of the once iconic chipmaker plummeted 60% in 2024. The company posted the biggest loss in its 56-year history in its latest quarterly earnings report. Its market cap has dropped 80% since 2000 — when it was one of the most valuable companies in the world. Company insiders and industry analysts tell Yahoo Finance that Intel's dramatic crash is the result of a slow deterioration spanning more than two decades. “They had a God complex; they were super arrogant,” a former high-level executive who worked at Intel for...

“The rewriting of the history of Jan. 6, 2021, is incredibly disturbing,” Judge Beryl Howell said U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan says she has often reassured police officers traumatized by the violence of Jan. 6, 2021, that “the rule of law still applies.” But as President-elect Donald Trump — once a defendant in Chutkan’s very court — prepares to retake the White House and pardon many Jan. 6 perpetrators, Chutkan now says, “I’m not sure I can do that very convincingly these days.” Chutkan’s comments, delivered this week as she sentenced another member of the Jan. 6 mob to eight...

President Trump has filed an amicus brief in a lawsuit by Texas and Missouri to stop the Biden Regime’s auctioning of border wall materials. As The Gateway Pundit reported, the Biden Regime is using its final weeks in power to auction off massive amounts of unused border wall materials that have been left sitting in the Arizona desert since Biden took office. Every day, an amount of materials that could build up to half a mile of wall are being transported north to be sold starting at $5 for each “32.91’ X 7.91’ Steel Bollard Wall Sections w/Grout,” according to...

Researchers find that pandemic policies sparked a wave of violent crime.Restrictive policies in response to COVID-19 did a huge amount of damage to our liberty, prosperity, kids' education, and even our sanity. But now there's evidence supporting what many of us suspected: Lockdowns also contributed to a surge in crime that temporarily reversed a decades-long decline in homicides. According to a new Brookings Institution report, forcing young men out of work and out of school fueled a surge in violence. Worse, this outcome was predicted.

Jagmeet Singh, leader of Canada's New Democratic Party (NDP), says he will introduce a motion to topple Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's government in the new year. It marks a turn for the NDP leader, whose centre-left party helped prop up Trudeau's minority government in exchange for support on their shared political priorities. He is the last of Canada's three main opposition parties to turn on Trudeau, meaning the prime minister is now unlikely to survive a non-confidence vote. Singh's announcement comes at the end of a difficult week for Trudeau, who is facing growing calls to resign from his own...

The bill would fund government until mid-March and includes $110 billion for disaster relief, $30 billion in farm aid, and a 1-year extension to the farm bill. President Joe Biden will not stand in the way of a funding package passed by the House on Dec. 20, the White House announced. “President Biden supports moving this legislation forward and ensuring that the vital services the government provides for hardworking Americans—from issuing Social Security checks to processing benefits for veterans—can continue as well as to grant assistance for communities that were impacted by devastating hurricanes,” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre...

I just heard about a horrible event coming up in a couple of weeks, and I wanted you to know right away. A Satanic circus known as the Paranormal Cirque is scheduled to perform at the Barton Creek Square shopping mall in Austin, Texas, from January 3rd thru January 12th, 2025; just 3-weeks from now. Why is it so bad? Because men dress as nuns and simulate immoral acts, it contains demonic imagery and features lewd and macabre scenes. And the worst part? Children as young as thirteen are allowed to attend! Hearing this makes me sick, so I launched...

House Speaker Mike Johnson’s best chance to keep the gavel is to allow House Democrats to vote for him, Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) told reporters Friday. If Democrats, along with some establishment Republicans, enable Johnson to retain the Speakership, he would be in a power sharing agreement with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, who would demand something of Johnson in return for Democrat votes.
