    New York Magazine's Vulture ^ | July 9, 2019 | Josef Adalian
    President Trump’s plan to turn the Fourth of July into a commercial for his reelection campaign paid off spectacularly, if you’re using Nielsen ratings as a metric. According to just-released figures from the audience-measurement company, more than 6 million Americans watched coverage of the Trump propaganda effort between 7 and 8 p.m. EDT last Thursday, the hour during which the former star of The Apprentice read remarks from a teleprompter. Unsurprisingly, Trump-friendly Fox News, which covered the event most exhaustingly, dominated the hour, notching an eye-popping 4.9 million viewers during the hour, about double what the network normally draws in...

    In New York City public schools, students can choose their classes, their sports, and their genders! Starting this fall, Schools Chancellor Richard Carranza is making the Big Apple an even bigger news story by radically changing the city's policy on registered names, dress codes, bathrooms, locker rooms, and athletics. He says this is his way of celebrating Pride month. But "proud" is the last word most parents would use to describe the news. In this new Wild West of gender identity, Carranza is giving the green light to everything from unofficial name changes to unisex school uniforms. "Schools are safe...

    If Amazon wants to sell books, maybe it ought to stop banning them! The company, which doesn't mind profiting from pornography, apparently does mind offering help for sexual confusion. After pressure from a single LGBT activist, the mega-retailer has decided to pull a series of titles from authors who once identified as gay. Now, a growing chorus of Americans is pressuring Amazon to stop the censorship. "These books have been life-saving instruments to some who have been struggling to find hope," Ethan Martin, who used to live as a gay man, told LifeSiteNews. "In taking these resources away, Amazon has...

    Actor Rip Torn, who appeared in over 100 films during a career spanning six decades, has died at 88, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

His role as the father of Mary Steenburgen in 1984 drama “Cross Creek” also earned Torn an Oscar nomination. Torn died peacefully at home in Lakeville, Connecticut, surrounded by his wife, Amy Wright, and their two daughters, the Hollywood Reporter reported.

    President Trump’s nomination of Washington, D.C., attorney Daniel Bress to the Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco was confirmed by the Senate Tuesday on a party-line vote, giving Trump seven appointees to a court he has regularly denounced. On the losing side of the 53-45 vote were California’s Democratic senators, Dianne Feinstein and Kamala Harris, who noted that the seat had been held by a Californian — Alex Kozinski, who retired last December after allegations of sexual misconduct by at least 15 female staffers — and would ordinarily be filled by a Californian. Bress, 40, was born...

    Presidential candidate Julian Castro says there's an easy explanation for Megan Rapinoe's standoff with President Trump, and it won't change until 1600 Penn. gets a new resident. Castro joined us on "TMZ Live" and said there's some pretty clear symbolism to Megan and the U.S. Women's Soccer Team skipping White House photo ops. He says it's simply a byproduct of Trump's "horrendous" and "divisive" policies.

    Jeffrey Epstein has long been known for his involvement in sex trafficking minors. Epstein is a is a wealthy financier who has been a registered sex offender since 2008.

Since then, Epstein has been the center of news stories and internet conspiracies related to sex trafficking. Epstein was arrested once again on Saturday in New York on two charges related to sex trafficking...

    Former Speaker of the California State Assembly and San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown’s former mistress, California Senator and presidential wannabe Kamala Harris, said over the Fourth of July weekend that she knows a sexual predator when she sees one and President Trump is a predator. As the Washington Examiner reported: Sen. Kamala Harris labeled President Trump a "predator" during a campaign event Wednesday in Des Moines, Iowa. “I know predators, and we have a predator living in the White House," the California Democrat stated. She certainly does know predators. I have documented on these pages how Harris used her relationship...

    George Orwell was a brilliant individual. A man of incredible insight – and foresight. In his unfathomably predictive novel 1984, Orwell warns of Big Brother: “(O)stensibly the leader of Oceania, a totalitarian state wherein the ruling party Ingsoc wields total power ‘for its own sake’ over the inhabitants. “In the society that Orwell describes, every citizen is under constant surveillance by the authorities, mainly by telescreens.…The people are constantly reminded of this by the slogan ‘Big Brother is watching you’: a maxim that is ubiquitously on display. “In modern culture, the term ‘Big Brother’ has entered the lexicon as a...

    55 years ago, Capt. Roger H.C. Donlon’s Special Forces Operational Detachment Alpha 726 manned a camp at Nam Dong, situated just east of the Laotian border and 30 miles west of Da Nang. Accompanying them was a few dozen Nung mercenaries, a team of South Vietnamese Special Forces, an Australian advisor, and a civilian anthropologist who was an expert on Vietnamese mountain tribes. For the last month, the team used the post to protect the locals and train fighters. The base was also a thorn in the Viet Cong’s sandals, as it was situated on Ho Chi Minh Trail, the...
