CNN/YoutubeIn no particular order, here are the biggest hoaxes and misinformation campaigns run by corporate media hacktivists this year. Americans who have lived through Donald Trump’s political career are no strangers to legacy media disinformation. From the Russia collusion hoax to the “very fine people” Charlottesville lie, the litany of dishonest info ops from left-wing activists masquerading as journalists is too long to count. And despite Americans’ waning trust in their ability to report news accurately and fairly, these Democrat Party yes-men show no signs of stopping. Like years before it, 2024 saw no shortage of media hijinks. Whether it...

Sigmund Freud had a term for it—the “narcissism of small differences”. In this case, Wikipedia explains it well: “… the more a relationship or community shares commonalities, the more likely the people in it are to engage in interpersonal feuds and ridicule because of hypersensitivity to minor differences.” We all recognize this pattern that manifests in various ways from the bickering of married couples to successful rock bands breaking up. The most minor disputes explode into major ones that no one wanted in the first place with sometimes disastrous results. This fits the internal MAGA dispute over H1-B visas to...

The Articles of association were passed on October 20, 1774, two hundred fifty years ago. While often overlooked, they are both a critical part of the story, and a window into the colonial mind, that would eventually lead into open rebellion.The Forgotten Foundational Document: The Articles of Association. | 15:21The History Guy | 1.47M subscribers | 88,369 views | October 21, 20241774 Articles of Association [PDF] | The Virginia Association

2024 marked the comeback of figures once dismissed, with Elon Musk and Donald Trump reclaiming dominance and Devin Nunes solidifying his role as a stalwart in intelligence oversight. 2024 proved to be the year of the reemergence of many once and unfairly pilloried public figures. SNIP Tesla’s rising stock prices ensured by year’s end that Musk was by far the richest man in the world with a net worth of well over $400 billion. His recyclable SpaceX Super Heavy starship rocket booster mesmerized the nation as it returned to the launch pad to be caught by a huge mechanical arm....

"I just heard of the news about the passing of President Jimmy Carter. Those of us who have been fortunate to have served as President understand this is a very exclusive club, and only we can relate to the enormous responsibility of leading the Greatest Nation in History. The challenges Jimmy faced as President came at a pivotal time for our country and he did everything in his power to improve the lives of all Americans. For that, we all owe him a debt of gratitude. Melania and I are thinking warmly of the Carter Family and their loved ones...

2024 marked the comeback of figures once dismissed, with Elon Musk and Donald Trump reclaiming dominance and Devin Nunes solidifying his role as a stalwart in intelligence oversight. 2024 proved to be the year of the reemergence of many once and unfairly pilloried public figures. Elon Musk weathered nonstop attacks on his X social media platform. Furor escalated over his newfound 2024 Trump advocacy—even as he ended 2024 with his iconic Tesla brand still the best-selling car in six states and the most popular electric vehicle in the entire nation. Tesla’s rising stock prices ensured by year’s end that Musk...

BACON DAY On December 30th each year, bacon lovers celebrate one of nature's favored gifts on Bacon Day! The day reminds us that bacon is not just for breakfast and encourages us to test out various ways to enjoy this culinary marvel. #BaconDay Everything is better with bacon, so someone said once. And our research shows very little to dispute this assertion. The United States and Canada make bacon from the pork belly. Other countries around the world use the side and back cuts of pork. The meat is cured in either a salt brine or a salt pack. It...

18 members of the Congressional Black Caucus, along with Rep. Rashida Tlaib & two other non-black members, signed a letter asking Biden to exonerate America’s first black Klansman. The letter does not mention that Marcus Garvey had allied with the KKK, admired Hitler, told his followers to read Mein Kampf and declared, “what the Negro needs is a Hitler.” It also does not mention that Garvey had himself in mind for the job, that the self-proclaimed “Provisional President of Africa” wore imaginary military uniforms and sent his thugs to beat up black civil rights leaders before being expelled in disgrace...

Shell-shocked Democrats are considering dropping labels like 'progressive' or even ditching the party altogether after they got shellacked by Donald Trump in November. After a left-leaning campaign by Vice President Kamala Harris delivered lackluster results, some Dems believe they should drop polarizing positions and run as independents as the party veers away from working class values. 'The Democratic brand is in the toilet,' Lis Smith, former senior advisor to Pete Buttigieg's 2020 campaign, told the New York Times. 'Many of the Democrats who succeeded this cycle - our best over-performers in House races, for instance - are people who ran...

The economics major is in dire straits. Across the nation, econ curricula aren’t instilling an appreciation for, or even a familiarity with, the economic way of thinking. Theory classes limit the power of economic analysis by reducing markets to sterile exercises in “perfect competition,” or else subordinating social science to social control by obsessing over “market failures.” Empirical classes equip students with sophisticated statistical tools but at the cost of reducing applied economics to data-mongering. The unfortunate result is that econ majors are almost always half-educated and quarter-lettered. They can memorize models and run regressions. They will confidently make pronouncements...

Harris/Biden military officials have denied their addiction to DEI, CRT and wokeness in general has had anything to do with the alarming decline in enlistments. Only the Marine Corps has been largely immune to a dearth of enlistees. It seems they’ve done their best to avoid the worst aspects of woke lunacy, or perhaps their historic focus on destroying American’s enemies has helped convince prospective Marines they might have to put up with some woke nonsense, but it won’t keep them from being Marines. Our service academies, as one would expect of educational institutions, have apparently gone gladly woke, the...

Inside the operation to take Kamal Adwan hospital; IDF soldier killed; Hamas fires 5 rockets into Israel; 17 in Syria killed by Israeli airstrike - report The IDF said on Sunday that - if ordered - it will prolong keeping Jabalya cut-off from Gaza City. While both Jabalya and Gaza City are broadly part of northern Gaza, Jabalya, along with Beit Hanun and Beit Lahiya, are part of the northernmost half of northern Gaza, which has been progressively emptied of most Palestinian terrorists and civilians alike since early October. In early October, tens of thousands of Palestinians were evacuated to...

Sparked by the internal GOP debate over H1B1 visas, Sunday's edition of MSNBC's The Weekend offered a stunning display of idiocy on the topic of immigration. Michal Steele began by insulting Trump's intelligence: "Let's be very clear, Donald Trump doesn't know the difference between H1B1 and a H1B1 bomber." Then Steele took a page from Joy Reid, accusing Trump of wanting to put migrants in "concentration camps." Give it a rest, Michael. Even your buddy Joe Scarborough has admitted that all his Trump/Hitler talk didn't work in November. April Ryan of The Grio predictably racialized the immigration issue, suggesting there's...

President Joe Biden, a medically confirmed non-compos mentis elderly man, has displayed the resolute spitefulness that comes with the Alzheimer’s disease, even while allegedly serving his duties as President of the United States. Coming on the heels of the first world-wide pandemic in a hundred years, the 2020 election provided the perfect environment for the Democrats to try and derail a Trump presidency that had produced several noteworthy economic, political, and social achievements. True to form, the Democrats and the Mainstream Media (MSM) conspired to pull out all the stops to prevent Trump from being re-elected. The Democrats began their...

I’m going out on a limb and say 3, 1 leftist and two Republicans. Sotomayor may be replaced due to death or at least severe health conditions. Thomas is getting to that age, which is a shame since he is a stalwart constitutional conservative vote.

Azeri president says apology isn’t enough, in confrontation that shows Moscow’s waning influence over former Soviet territories. Azerbaijan’s president accused Russia of trying to cover up its role in a plane crash that killed 38 people, delivering a harsh condemnation that signaled a reversal of the power dynamics that long saw Moscow hold sway over its former Soviet republics. President Ilham Aliyev said Sunday that Azerbaijan had laid out for the Kremlin the necessary conditions to satisfy the country, demanding that Russia take responsibility for causing the crash, provide compensation for the country and victims’ families, and bring those guilty...
