This video from Black Conservative Perspective discusses the recent electoral success of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party in the German state of Saxony-Anhalt, where they secured 44% of the vote (0:28-0:32, 9:16-9:20). Key takeaways from the video: Mainstream Media Reaction: The narrator highlights what they describe as a "meltdown" or "panic" within the mainstream liberal media, which labels the AfD as "far-right" or even neo-Nazi.

Stephen Acorn is running as an Independent write-in against longtime Democrat incumbent Debbie Buckner for Georgia House District 137. After signs kept disappearing near Matthews Elementary School and County Line Road, Acorn cut open replacements, slipped AirTags inside, and waited. “I feel like I outsmarted the perpetrator,” Acorn...

If you've got an Apple TV set-top box, that's not enough to protect your privacy if you have an LG television. Unplug Ethernet and tell it to forget your Wi-Fi information. Smart televisions have a history of being a privacy problem for users. Repeated reports have surfaced over the years about them logging how you use the television, as well as misusing sensors intended to monitor the viewers. In a September investigation by Gamers Nexus posted to YouTube, LG's smart TVs still continue to be a privacy nightmare. It's pretty bad, given that some models are capable of eavesdropping on...

A political parody of The Guess Who’s 1970 rock classic “American Woman.” 🎸🇺🇸 “Liberal woman… stay away from me!” 😂 In this parody, I take the attitude and swagger of “American Woman” and aim it squarely at the modern political Left — particularly the liberal woman whose politics I believe are being shaped by partisan media, celebrity culture, social media, and shows like The View. The song takes aim at what I see as foolish voting, political propaganda, “toxic empathy,” and policies that continually remove personal ACCOUNTABILITY. The timing of this parody was also influenced by the highly publicized Lindsay...
