A sign of change? Feelings of frustration? Ulterior motives? These are all ideas that have been coming to the mind of those who have been well aware of the factual reality that UFOs are in fact real, verifiable for at least the last 3 or 4 decades. Without issuing any sort of official proclamation, the United States government in general and the Pentagon in particular began speaking openly of not one, not two, but dozens and dozens of verified sightings of UFOs. It’s the strangest thing, really, but that’s exactly what happened. In 2019, our government casually mentions UFO encounters...

Canada’s oil sands industry just can’t catch a break. Enbridge’s Line 3 pipeline is facing the prospect of more delays as it was hit with a legal setback in a Minnesota court. On Monday, a court ruled that the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission’s decision to approve the Line 3 replacement, based on an environmental impact statement, was not supported with “substantial evidence” that it would not harm the environment. Specifically, the court cited the inadequate assessment of how an oil spill would affect Lake Superior and its watershed. The case was brought by a coalition of environmental groups and native...

The mythical Palestinian people are on an never-ending crusade to steal the land that rightfully belongs to the Jews, and if Liberal Socialist and avowed anti-semite Bernie Sanders gets elected president, things are going to change radically. First thing that will happen is that he as president will order the US Embassy moved back to Tel Aviv, the second thing that will happen is that he will overturn President Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. Bernie Sanders, protests to the contrary notwithstanding, hates the regathered nation of Israel, and is working as hard as he can to...

First, I start with setting a virtual environment and install pipenv on my terminal...

Lila Rose ‏Verified account @LilaGraceRose Jun 1 What a role reversal. The Southern states, that once supported slavery, are now the vanguards fighting the greatest human rights abuse our nation faces. Meanwhile, Northern states like New York and Illinois are fighting to entrench it. 177 replies 1,326 retweets 5,237 likes BREAKING: Illinois lawmakers just passed a law even more extreme than New York’s that includes repealing a ban on partial-birth abortion, where an infant is delivered feet first, her neck is punctured with surgical scissors and her brain is suctioned out.

Miffed that his operation to thwart Trump's election and undermine his presidency has come unraveled, former President Obama tried to sway Brazil's voters to oppose President Jair Bolsonaro's loosening of gun controls by falsely stating that "in the United States anyone can buy firearms, including machine guns, at any time—even over the Internet—without having to get government approval beforehand. Don't let your president lead you down this same dangerous path." Early indications that Bolsonaro's January directive seems to have reduced crimes committed with guns contradicts Obama's premise that keeping guns out of the hands of law-abiding citizens would improve public...

VIDEO Jeff Daniels appeared on MSNBC recently to channel the Atticus Finch role he is playing in the Broadway play "To Kill A Mockingbird" in order to obsess like Captain Ahab over his White Whale which in reality is the Big Bad Orange Whale known as Donald Trump. From his apocalyptic vision of the future if Trump is either re-elected or not removed from office via the impeachment process, it is obvious that Dumber than Dumb Daniels might go the Heaven's Gate route to the Mother Ship.

Those among us who actively support and champion the tenets of communism for the masses all have one thing in common, they all assume they will be one of the commissars. Take Elizabeth Warren for starters, on The View: “Two-cent wealth tax on the top one-tenth of 1 percent, your 50-millionth and first dollar, and with that we can cancel student loan debt for about 95 percent of the people who have it,” Warren said. Her fans cheering, Warren added, “Oh, but we can do so much more…” And here it is, more! 1) Universal tuition-free technical school, two-year college, and...

Many gun magazines have their flavor of gun bunnies showcasing inside the calendars, AR girls, etc.. Here's our short list of close-call gun accidents in the hot girl gun category. Sure, real gun folks often have better videos, but the hot girls sometimes wear bikinis. These girls simply can't handle a weapon, making them probably not the safest hands for a firearm to be in. There are many gun bunny FAILs out there in the wild internet. The girls on this list probably wish they didn't have someone posting these mishaps on social media, or probably hoped that they'd be...

My policies: 1. Jail time for women who have abortions - This includes young women who are confused. 2. Unrestricted free trade - We need to stop supporting middle aged men in industries that don’t want to compete. Note that trade restrictions related to weapons and to ensure base domestic food supply are ok, but it is not Ok to protect our general industrial capacity. 3. Regulation elimination - I would like a 25 reduction in federal regulations for each of the next 10 years. 4. Reduction in taxes, especially on high income earners 5. Stop passing laws to help...

WASHINGTON — In rare public remarks, Justice Clarence Thomas on Monday dismissed what he called “this rumor that I was retiring.” “I have no idea where this stuff comes from,” he said. Justice Thomas, in a relaxed and reflective mood, was interviewed by David Rubenstein, a financier and philanthropist, in the Supreme Court’s courtroom as part of a series of lectures sponsored by the Supreme Court Historical Society.

House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn on Monday walked back remarks suggesting that Democrats will impeach President Donald Trump, reversing course to say he’s “farther” from backing impeachment than most of his caucus. Clyburn’s comments came after a private leadership meeting Monday evening in which Speaker Nancy Pelosi reiterated that she didn’t support launching impeachment proceedings right now despite a growing push within the caucus. “I’m probably farther away from impeachment than anybody in our caucus,” Clyburn (D-S.C.) told reporters Monday night. “We will not get out in front of our committees. We’ll see what the committees come up with. I’ve...

If you are a country music fan, you might want to consider naming your child in a way that is conducive to being a country music singer. It could very well enhance the chances of your child growing up to be a big country star in Nashville someday. Yes, your child could have an average 5-7 year country music career with a dozen top 10 hits and 3-4 solid albums that achieve gold or platinum status with the RIAA. Not to mention sold out crowds in stadiums and arenas in which your child may actually be the headlining act! It's...

Some thoughts on the European election results and what it portends for the future of the United Kingdom and the European Union.

Democratic Party candidates for President in 2020 have been claiming that Trump’s economic successes are really the result of Obama administration policies. A while back, the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis created a summary report that measured the American economy while President Obama and the Democrats were in control. It’s a trip down memory lane, and shows that Democrat claims about the “Obama Economy” are nothing but smoke and mirrors designed to fool the American people. While Democrats were in charge everything that should have been up, is down, and everything that should have been down, is up. Take...
