    Newly leaked test results prove that Olympic boxer Imane Khelif does have male chromosomes — after the International Olympic Committee dismissed the claims as “not legitimate” and let her compete in the Paris 2024 Games. Khelif – a 26-year-old who has long maintained she is female — was found to have male XY chromosomes in a 2023 test carried out by an accredited Indian doctor, newly obtained test results leaked by 3 Wire Sports show. “Chromosome analysis reveals male karyotype,” read the test results — referring to male chromosomes – which left Khelif barred from the 2023 women’s World Boxing...

    Now in question is the entirety of Special Counsel John Durham’s investigation into the Russia-collusion hoaxers.People familiar with the investigation into the Russia collusion hoax told The Federalist that senior officials did not know the FBI case management database, Sentinel, allowed agents to conceal the existence of evidence. Nor did anyone from Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s office mention that documents related to the investigation into the Trump campaign had been rendered invisible by use of the “Prohibited Access” coding in Sentinel — even though they knew the Department of Justice was investigating the origins and handling of the Crossfire Hurricane...

    I started writing my Imperfect America blog in 2009. It’s my passion, despite the sad fact that it’s never made me a penny. Not even on Twitter, new or old, where my account is constantly throttled! My first post was titled “Racism, America’s Original Sin.” It was a response to the new normal of anyone disagreeing with Barack Obama being called a racist. In it, I talk about the 3/5th Compromise and the fact that it gave Southerners less power in the House than they wanted, but more importantly, it was the key to America being one nation rather than...

    Artificial intelligence companies have been urged to replicate the safety calculations that underpinned Robert Oppenheimer’s first nuclear test before they release all-powerful systems. Max Tegmark, a leading voice in AI safety, said he had carried out calculations akin to those of the US physicist Arthur Compton before the Trinity test and had found a 90% probability that a highly advanced AI would pose an existential threat. In a paper published by Tegmark and three of his students at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), they recommend calculating the “Compton constant” – defined in the paper as the probability that an...

    Can someone help with getting the notification popup window at the bottom right of the screen to show the notifications again? For instance, I used to get the popup window notification to show immediately when a Youtube video was downloaded. Not getting the window anymore. Now, up at the top right on the Youtube page there is a bell that will show the number of new videos since the last time I checked but if I don't constantly check, I never know. Not to mention the bell has when the videos were loaded all messed up - 1 hour ago,...

    Footage from a volunteer on a FBR medical team that also did Good Life Club programs for refugee children (basically a warzone version of a VBS). Some very graphic footage.

    Actor Jonathan Joss — best known for his voice work on the iconic animated TV comedy “King of Hill” — was shot dead by a neighbor in Texas, according to police. Joss, who voiced “John Redcorn” on the long-running cartoon, got into an argument with the neighbor at his home in San Antonio Sunday night when the neighbor pulled out a gun and shot him several times, police said. The unnamed gunman then fled in a vehicle but was arrested just a block away. He was 59 years old. In addition to his character on “King of the Hill,” Joss,...

    Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., said Monday the Senate could begin work this month on a bill imposing stiff sanctions on Russia – and secondary sanctions on countries that trade with Russia – over its war in Ukraine. Thune said President Donald Trump's administration still hopes for an agreement to end the three-year-old conflict, but the Senate is prepared to help put pressure on Moscow. "We also stand ready to provide President Trump with any tools he needs to get Russia to finally come to the table in a real way," Thune said in a speech opening the day's business...

    The news coming from CNN has not been good for Democrats lately. As we reported on Sunday, even Democratic voters don't have any faith in where the party is headed. They don't think they are the party with strong leaders, and a vast majority of Democrats don't think their party is the one that can get things done. That followed a focus group survey that indicated the American public in general viewed them like "sloths" and "tortoises" when comparing them to animals. That's not exactly a sterling take for them. Now CNN's senior data analyst Harry Enten has more bad...

    A 96-year-old Canadian woman was so exasperated with the glacial pace of her nation’s universal healthcare system — she posted a wanted ad in her local newspaper to find a primary care doctor. “I am apparently somewhere in the 80,000’s in the physician waiting list, and so time is increasingly of the essence,” retired fourth-grade teacher Dorothy Lamont wrote in her classified ad titled “Seeking a Physician” in the May 23 edition of the Halifax Chronicle Herald in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. “I am 96 years old, of sound mind and body relative to my advanced age, and have been without...

    The walkers in Boulder, Colorado, had gathered peacefully every Sunday afternoon at 1 o’clock to ensure that the world did not forget hostages Hamas still holds, more than 600 days after the terrorist attacks against Israel on Oct. 7, 2023. The Boulder effort, part of a global initiative called Run for Their Lives, has been profound yet modest: just a few dozen people wearing red, walking along a pedestrian mall and saying the captives’ names.On Sunday, the ritual made global news, for the wrong reasons. Egyptian national Mohamed Sabry Soliman, 45, allegedly used a makeshift flamethrower and tossed molotov cocktails...

    On Jan. 19, Haoxiang Gao boarded a Delta flight from Detroit International Airport to Shanghai, China, using a different Chinese passport than the one he surrendered. A Chinese student at the University of Michigan fled to China after being charged with illegal voting in the 2024 election, according to the FBI.In October, while attending the university as a foreign national student, Haoxiang Gao turned himself in after allegedly being registered to vote and casting a ballot in the general election in Michigan. Gao was charged with two felonies: false swearing to register to vote and trying to vote as an...

    ChatGPT was released two and a half years ago, and we have been in a public panic ever since. Artificial intelligence can write in a way that passes for human, creating a fear that relying too heavily on machine-generated text will diminish our ability to read and write at a high level. We’ve heard that the college essay is dead, and that alarming number of students use A.I. tools to cheat their way through college. This has the potential to undermine the future of jobs, education and art all at once.The Titanic is indeed headed toward the iceberg, but the...

    As RedState reported, major news outlets, including Fox News, CNN, the Associated Press, and the BBC, rushed to publish a fake news story about a supposed "massacre" at an Israeli-allied Gaza aid distribution site. According to the Hamas-run "Gaza Ministry of Health," Israeli "warships, tanks, and drones" randomly opened fire on thousands of people, killing 31 and injuring over 200 more. Why would Israel do that when their entire strategy is to neuter Hamas' power structure by not allowing the terrorist group to control the distribution of aid? The answer is that they wouldn't, which should have been enough for...

    CHICAGO, IL — In an incident that brought swift condemnation from Democrats across the country, a local man was immediately arrested and charged with a hate crime for casting a shadow on a Pride crosswalk. The brazen act was allegedly perpetrated by a man later identified as Leonard Morgan, an electrician who claimed to have simply "walked by" the crosswalk on his way to a customer's house. Witnesses said Morgan's shadow could be clearly seen being cast over the crosswalk for over two seconds, which was a clear violation of the law. "There's no place in this city — or...

    Intensive exercise- and sport changes the heart of an athlete. Research led by Amsterdam UMC shows that the hearts of female athletes have different characteristics than those of male athletes. Whereas a thickening in combination with a dilation of the heart muscle is characteristic in male top athletes, dilation of the heart chambers is mainly seen in female elite athletes. An important observation that can help doctors to better distinguish between normal sports-related changes and possible heart disease in female athletes. These results were published today in European Heart Journal Cardiovascular Imaging. Difference Between Men and Women Despite the growing...
