(LifeSiteNews) — Top feminist Gloria Steinem who died this week at age 92 may have been very different from her carefully cultivated public persona. While she earned her reputation as the unrivaled leader of the feminist and pro-abortion movements, the connections that lay behind her public career perhaps tell a more complex tale. There is no question that Steinem was once employed by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). She herself divulged her association with the spy agency in her 2015 memoir. “She knew she was working for the CIA and said so herself,” LifeSite CEO John-Henry Westen noted in a...

I have had RLS for a few years. It is not severe, just annoying. I also have developed neuropathy in my lower legs. While looking for help on neuropathy I found a Youtube video on a possible help if not a cure. I've been on it for a month and have had no change in that. However, I noticed after a couple of weeks that my RLS was 99% gone. The regimen involves red light therapy and a few supplements. Here's the list: 600 mg N-Acetyll L-Cysteine twice a day on empty stomach. 1000 mg Acetyl L-Carnitine twice a day...

This video by Black Conservative Perspective criticizes the public support for Karmelo Anthony, who is involved in a legal case regarding the stabbing of a teenager. The creator argues that many individuals, particularly within the black community, prematurely supported Karmelo based on racial identity rather than the facts of the case (12:23-13:21, 15:36-16:06). Key points covered in the video: Disgust at Alleged Content: The video highlights the emergence of text messages attributed to Karmelo Anthony that contain derogatory and hateful remarks about black women. The creator notes that this revelation has caused many of his previous supporters to withdraw their...

— A self-avowed “radical feminist” is blaming so-called ‘man-made’ climate change on too few women aborting their children. In an interview with Refinery29, 1960’s feminist icon Gloria Steinem began with the debunked population explosion myth. “What causes climate deprivation is population,” she said, echoing the current liberal spin. She then tied her pet issue, unrestricted government-funded abortion and its global coercion, with the standard “Florida-is-sinking-into-the-ocean” fearmongering: “If we had not been systematically forcing women to have children they don’t want or can’t care for over the 500 years of patriarchy, we wouldn’t have the climate problems that we have. That’s...

Multiple Asian governments assert sovereignty over rocks, reefs, and other geographic features in the heavily trafficked South China Sea (SCS), with the People’s Republic of China (PRC or China) arguably making the most assertive claims. Separate from the sovereignty disputes, the governments of the United States, China, and other countries disagree over what rights international law grants foreign militaries to fly, sail, and operate in a country’s territorial sea or exclusive economic zone (EEZ). For more than a decade, some Members have examined China’s efforts to use coercion and intimidation to increase its control over the SCS.An estimated one-fifth to...

# PROLOGUE ## The Last File Thomas Rourke had always liked November in West Virginia. By then the hardwoods had given up most of their color, leaving the mountains stripped down to gray trunks, brown ridgelines and scattered stands of pine that seemed almost unnaturally green against everything around them. The first real snow was usually still a few weeks away, although there had been years when winter arrived early and buried the county before Thanksgiving. On most November nights, however, the temperature simply fell below freezing after dark, woodsmoke settled into the hollows, and the mountains grew quiet in...

PLYMOUTH, Mass. – A judge declared a mistrial in Lindsay Clancy’s murder trial Friday on the seventh day of deliberations — but gave her defiant lawyer one hour to file an emergency appeal against the ruling. The 12-person jury – made up of nine women and three men – told Judge William Sullivan that they could not agree on whether to convict Clancy, 36, of three counts of first-degree murder.

The debate over Flock Safety cameras divides people in a way that almost nothing else does in technology policy. Those who have had a car stolen tend to love them. Those who study constitutional law tend to hate them. Both are reacting to something real. This is an independent analysis of what these systems actually do, what the evidence says about their accuracy and misuse, and why the most important question is not whether cameras can photograph public streets — it is whether the government should build a searchable, warrantless database of everyone’s movements. This topic generated significant public discussion...

Women cheering Lindsay Clancy, a murderer of three little children. Literally cheering a murderer of three little children. And these people vote.

Asking for a little help, maybe someone can give me some information. Does anybody know if the Lancey children victims had toxicology and what Temperature the children were when they arrived in the Emergency room. Was that discussed in the trial? I ask because for two of them it would establish time of death. The husband said he was gone 45 min.

CLEVELAND, Ga. – A privately owned Flock Safety camera positioned to monitor the parking lot of a White County gun store is being removed after growing concerns over automated license plate reader technology left some customers worried about their privacy. Michael Carter, owner of Gun Commanders on U.S. 129 in Cleveland, told Now Georgia the camera was installed roughly two years ago for one purpose: to help protect his employees, customers, and business from crime. Carter privately owns the camera, not the White County Sheriff’s Office. According to Carter, it was configured to send hit-list notifications to the sheriff’s office...

ST. JOHNS COUNTY, Fla. – St. Johns County Sheriff’s Office deputies had an unexpected encounter Aug. 23, when they responded to a home and discovered something far from ordinary in the bathroom — a large buck. The sheriff’s office shared body camera video of the incident, giving a firsthand look at what they called a ‘deer-in-the-headlights’ moment. Armed with a pool brush, deputies managed to guide the buck safely out of the home and back into the woods - but not before the confused creature fell into the backyard pool. He eventually found his way out and back into the...

he Justice Department is being asked to investigate whether sensitive state voter data — including Social Security and driver's license numbers — was transferred to a nonprofit tied to Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg in violation of federal privacy laws, according to a letter from Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin released Friday by the White House. The Department of Homeland Security first brought its concerns to the Justice Department in September 2025, Secretary Mullin wrote to Attorney General Todd Blanche in a letter dated Wednesday. It is unclear what the Justice Department did with the original information. The new letter sent...

Gloria Steinem doesn’t have her facts straight, but don’t expect the media to call her out on it. On Tuesday, feminist activist Gloria Steinem appeared as a guest on PBS’ Tavis Smiley. During the show, Steinem praised abortion for giving her “my life” and bashed the controversy surrounding Planned Parenthood’s practice of aborted baby parts. She blamed the “attack” on Planned Parenthood on everything from the “ultra-right wing” to “patriarchy” and a “long-term racist system.” Host Tavis Smiley hailed Steinem as a “feminist icon” and “renowned social activist” before asking about her newly published book, My Life on the Road....

Gloria Steinem Blames El Rushbo for Feminism's Failure (Rush Limbaugh Clips)

I guess the Lindsay Clancy trial has put an end to that whole thing about a woman being president. Clancy has become a feminist hero for slaughtering her three children, whose names, in case anyone cares, were Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 8 months. For that brave response to “postpartum depression,” she’s attracted hundreds of female admirers, who stand petulantly outside the courthouse in pink T-shirts, demanding her acquittal. When Muslims pull this crap, blaming their gang rapes on the trauma of being asylum seekers, we’re not as understanding. But when women claim mental anguish from giving birth, we’re...

Those who adhere to a strict "don't speak ill of the recently deceased" protocol will want to sit this one out, because your boy here is gonna unload. One of the most execrable figures to emerge from the counterculture movement of the 1960s has passed away. Feminist icon Gloria Steinem died on Wednesday at the age of 92. There is no denying that Steinem was a powerful force in American culture and that her legacy will live on. The perspective on whether any of that is good or bad exists on either side of a very wide ideological divide. The...

When Oklahoma inmate Steve Wilbanks spoke to a reporter by phone in late July, it had been six weeks since he worked in a prison call center, placing calls on behalf of insurance companies attempting to poach business from competitors and making political calls as primary elections were underway across the country. “I had good numbers,” Wilbanks, who is incarcerated at the James Crabtree Correctional Center in Helena, said. “I was a producer.” Wilbanks was one of four inmates who spoke with reporters about the call center work. Contracts obtained via an open records request confirm that a company called...
