A Columbia University study has found that teens who use cannabis recreationally are two to four times as likely to develop psychiatric disorders, such as depression and suicidality, than teens who don’t use cannabis at all. The research, published in JAMA Open Network(link is external and opens in a new window) May 3, also finds that casual cannabis use puts teens at risk for problem behaviors, including poor grades, truancy, and trouble with the law, which can have long-term negative consequences that may keep youth from developing their full potential in adulthood. "Perceptions exist among youth, parents, and educators that...

BREAKING: Special prosecutor John Durham concluded that “neither U.S. nor the Intelligence Community appears to have possessed any actual evidence of collusion in their holdings at the commencement of the Crossfire Hurricane investigation.” FBI records prepared by [Peter] Strzok in February and March 2017 show that at the time of the opening of Crossfire Hurricane, the FBI had no information in its holdings indicating that at any time during the campaign anyone in the Trump had been in contact with any Russian intelligence officials.” According to the 306-page Durham report, the Obama FBI tried and failed to obtain a FISA...

Clinical data increasingly has shown that patients with low vitamin D levels have a greater chance of COVID-19 infection—and severe disease and death. Now, research points to an explanation for the link and provides evidence that higher vitamin D intake can help fight off the disease. The study indicates the vitamin strengthens the lung lining and possibly also reducing fluid leakage into the airways, which causes pneumonia. "Your body is mostly sacs and tubes," said James Mullin, Ph.D. "If their linings are in good shape, you're in good shape. If they're leaking and fail to provide a proper barrier, it's...

There’s a growing divide between the rank-and-file officers of the FBI and upper management, according to FBI agent-turned-whistleblower Steve Friend, and it’s those at the top who are pushing a political agenda.“I spent close to nine years in the FBI, spent a good chunk of my time just keeping my head down and working the cases in front of me,” Friend noted in a March 14 interview with NTD News, The Epoch Times’ sister outlet.“There are a lot of agents that sort of share that sentiment and just want to drive the mission forward. Unfortunately, there’s a big disconnect between...

It may be better to let a mild fever run its course instead of automatically reaching for medication, new research suggests. Researchers found that untreated moderate fever helped fish clear their bodies of infection rapidly, controlled inflammation and repaired damaged tissue. "We let nature do what nature does, and in this case it was very much a positive thing," says immunologist Daniel Barreda. Moderate fever is self-resolving, meaning that the body can both induce it and shut it down naturally without medication, Barreda explains. That suggests we should resist reaching for over-the-counter fever medications, also known as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs...

Dr. Paul R. McHugh, the former psychiatrist-in-chief for Johns Hopkins Hospital and its current Distinguished Service Professor of Psychiatry, said that transgenderism is a “mental disorder” that merits treatment, that sex change is “biologically impossible,” and that people who promote sexual reassignment surgery are collaborating with and promoting a mental disorder. Dr. McHugh, the author of six books and at least 125 peer-reviewed medical articles, made his remarks in a recent commentary in the Wall Street Journal, where he explained that transgender surgery is not the solution for people who suffer a “disorder of ‘assumption’” – the notion that their...

The liberal Poynter Institute for Media Studies seems to have an obsession with conservative media outlets getting put on blacklists. The Washington Examiner exposed how the State Department and liberal Big Tech giant Microsoft actively bankrolled the leftist British group Global Disinformation Index (GDI). GDI was reportedly “feeding blacklists to ad companies with the intent of defunding and shutting down” conservative websites “peddling alleged ‘disinformation.”’ GDI's blacklist included news sites like The Daily Wire, RealClear Politics, Breitbart, Newsmax, One America News, The Daily Caller, The Washington Times, the Examiner and Blaze Media. The former associate director for Poynter’s George Soros-funded...

It’s an annual ritual. One that the media enables because it enjoys clickbait and lies. And the doomsday clock has lots of both.Every year, Rachel Bronson, President and CEO of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, who has a degree in political science from Columbia, gets up in front of a fake clock to announce that the world is doomed.And now it’s time for the Doomsday Clock to be set for 90 seconds to midnight. Or whatever gets media attention.If you don’t believe Rachel, maybe you’ll listen to Jerry Brown, former California governor and executive chair of the Bulletin of...

Experts today cast doubts over the authenticity of a series of videos that claim to show patients violently shaking after a reaction to the Covid vaccine. In one clip, an elderly female patient struggles to walk from the bathroom to her hospital bed while experiencing tremors. Other videos show patients convulsing and struggling to move. But experts told DailyMail.com the shaking was 'not characteristic' of the seizures patients claimed to be suffering. It has been suggested that the shakes may be an effect of fears over getting the vaccine. They added that the videos were a reminder of the 'dangerous'...

According to former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich, the Biden administration rates as “the most corrupt and dangerous” in the history of the country. During an appearance on FNC’s “Hannity” on Thursday, Gingrich made the declaration and warned of a “constitutional crisis” stemming from the Biden administration’s desire to wage war on its own people. “Oh, look, I think they’ll do a lot, and I think this is just a childish game by the Biden team,” he said. “The fact is on the third or the fourth, the Republicans who will run the committees no matter who the speaker...

Inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon, as Milton Friedman, the economist and intellectual author of the Reagan Revolution used to explain. Which means that when Federal Reserve prints out more cash to shell out for bigger and bigger government programs, look out. Inflation is on the way. Don't take this from me, this time. It's now what one of President Obama's top economic advisors is now warning as Joe Biden gets ready to sign the $1.7 trillion Omnibus bill passed by Congress, including 18 skeevy Republicans: On Friday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” Steve Rattner, who served as...

Cassidy Hutchinson, a former aide in the Trump administration and a key witness in the House select committee hearings on the January 6, 2021, Capitol attack, said she initially lied to the panel in a deposition about whether she'd heard that President Donald Trump lunged at a Secret Service agent in the presidential SUV on the day of the riot. In her newly released depositions, Hutchinson said she was coerced by Stefan Passantino, her Trump-aligned attorney, to mislead it on how much information she knew.

Twitter CEO Elon Musk tweeted on Tuesday that the United States has “definitely” been harmed by having Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) serve in the Senate. Musk made the comment in response to a tweet from former Tesla program manager Farzad Mesbahi, who is now a content-creator, according to his LinkedIn profile. Mesbahi retweeted a post about a letter that Warren sent to the chairman of the board of Tesla, which Musk also owns, asking if shareholders have been hurt financially by Musk’s time running Twitter. “Elizabeth Warren is the last person I would ever want anywhere close to Tesla,” Mesbahi...

WASHINGTON — President Biden wrongly claimed Tuesday that he lowered the national debt by $1.7 trillion — when in fact the debt grew by nearly $3.7 trillion during his first 23 months in office. Biden made the error while using the terms “deficit” and “debt” interchangeably during remarks touting the slight decline in the annual inflation rate to 7.1% in November. “We’ve done all of this while lowering the federal deficit in the two years we’ve been in office $1.7 trillion,” Biden said before incorrectly adding, “Let me say that again — $1.7 trillion we’ve lowered the federal debt.” The...

VIDEOSteve Kane Radio Show co-host Brian Craig made the convincing case that the Democrats will attempt to PRE-STEAL the 2024 election by the process of attempting to keep President Donald Trump off the ballots of key states with the excuse that he has been charged with insurrection. Even though this attempt will lose in court, it will still have succeeded according to Brian because by the time the states are required to print Trump's name on the ballots, it will be too late to do so.This is yet another reason that the new Congress should keep the J6 Committee in...

Democrats tried to frame the 2022 midterms as a referendum on Republicans, whom they’ve branded a “threat to democracy,” but the real threat to our nation is how little Americans can trust elections that drag on for days or weeks.Many Americans already have a hard time believing that although nearly 75 percent of voters think the country is on the wrong track, they chose to keep many of the same crises-causing candidates. But assuming that discrepancy can be explained by the Democrats’ get-out-the-vote machine and other factors, Americans have bigger doubts — namely that three days after polls closed, voters...

My wife and I were taking our usual evening walk with our dog on Friday. We walk about 8 miles a day---combined before/after work and at lunch. We were walking Friday evening before meeting with friends and while coming up a hill we noticed a guy blowing leaves---he appeared to be finishing up as he walked down the driveway, then started to walk back up. His house is on the left side of the road and we walk on the left side (toward traffic). There's no sidewalks. As we approached him he kept walking towards us, stopped blowing leaves, then...

Former Attorney General Bill Barr said Wednesday on FNC’s “America Reports” that New York State Attorney General Letitia James’s lawsuit against former President Donald Trump and his adult children was a “political hit job.” Barr said, “It’s hard for me not to conclude it’s a political hit job. This is a woman who campaigned for office promising she was going to go after Trump, which I think is a tremendous abuse of office to go headhunting and targeting individuals. So I think she was targeting Trump.”
