Government-Backed Censors Who Rigged The 2020 Election Are Now Stealing 2024Tucker Carlson’s interview with Mike Benz should be a wake-up call for all Americans that our government is waging war on us.If you didn’t see Tucker Carlson’s interview last week with Mike Benz, you need to take an hour and watch the whole thing. In a mind-bending narrative about the emergence of what Benz calls “military rule” through an online censorship industry in the U.S., he lays out in startling detail just how corrupt and tyrannical the U.S. defense and foreign policy establishment has become. Most importantly, Benz, the executive...

Mercedes-Benz says the owners of nearly 300,000 of its SUVs should park them until further notice due to a potential problem that can result in loss of braking power. NHTSA has issued a "do not drive" notice for the 2006-2012 ML-Class, GL-Class and R-Class vehicles until their brake boosters can be inspected. According to Mercedes, these SUVs shipped with brake boosters that may become corroded after prolonged exposure to moisture. If corrosion occurs, the structure of internal components of the brake booster can crack, allowing air into the baking system and reducing braking effectiveness. If enough physical stress is placed...

MONTMELO, Spain -- After 64 hours of track time spread over eight days at the Circuit de Catalunya, Ferrari and Mercedes were split by just 0.003 seconds on the final day of preseason testing. That is a remarkably small margin when you consider there has been a significant regulation change and a full winter of development since the two rivals last met on track, but look beyond the headline-grabbing times and the evidence suggests it is last year's runner up Ferrari that has moved ahead. EDITOR'S PICKS Lewis fears Ferrari's advantage over Mercedes is 0.5s a lap With just two...

In 1886, Dr Carl Benz invented the automobile in Mannheim (Reich Patent No. 37435) - but nobody wanted to buy it. But when Bertha Benz, his wife, went with her 13- and 15-year-old sons on a long-distance trip in 1888 from Mannheim to Pforzheim and back - without her husband's knowledge - to prove that the horseless coach was absolutely suitable for daily use, it became a huge success with almost a billion drivers worldwide today!

Let’s face it, NBC’s “Heroes” isn’t what it used to be, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t room for another show about a family of superheroes on TV. (Remember, “Heroes” basically had that — the Petrellis.) The latest to take a shot at the premise is ABC, who is gearing up “No Ordinary Family” which is set to star “The Shield’s” Michael Chiklis (left, also The Thing in the “Fantastic Four” movies) and former “Dexter” star Julie Benz (she was also in “Punisher War Zone” and “Rambo”). THR lists the show as a “drama”, but the premise sure sounds pretty...

Anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan holds a sign while demonstrating for the end of U.S. military involvement and peace in Iraq in front of the White House in Washington November 6, 2006.

For months, Iryna Singerman concealed her double life from her newlywed husband -- her shiny gold Mercedes, her illicit affair with a Woodland Hills playboy and the house she and her lover purchased together. Ronald Singerman learned of her secrets last week, when his 21-year-old wife failed to come home and financial documents belonging to the aspiring model were among the blood-soaked items found in garbage bags dumped in a trash bin behind a Woodland Hills strip mall. A decomposing body believed to be that of Iryna Singerman was found Tuesday, and police have intensified the search for her lover...

Clara Harris, a Texas woman who was convicted of murdering her husband in March, was just granted joint custody of her twin five year-old boys. The ruling validates what fathers' and children's advocates have been saying for years -- when it comes to children, many courts believe that mothers can do no wrong. While Clara Harris' murder conviction was not enough to deprive her of equal rights to her children, hundreds of thousands of fathers have been thrown out of their homes and driven out of their children's lives by unfounded accusations of domestic violence. According to Washington family law...
