Senators will no doubt yield this one back without objection. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer appeared to break wind on the floor of the chamber this week, even suppressing a light chuckle after the now-viral delivery. The 75-year-old was criticizing President Trump and the war in Iran when he seemed to have lost a war of his own that was brewing in his trousers, letting loose an audible fart that went out live on C-SPAN airwaves Tuesday. “Now on Iran and the NDAA,” Schumer said before seemingly cutting the cheese in a viral clip first isolated and shared by The...

Viewers may have to do a little hunting or channel-surfing if they want to watch tonight’s controversial address to the nation from President Donald Trump. ABC and NBC will opt to stream Trump’s speech at 9 pm EST on their streaming platforms, rather than carry it live on their networks. ABC says that it will broadcast a special report when the speech concludes. “ABC News will run President Trump’s speech on ABC News Live and ABC News Radio with comprehensive, anchored coverage,” an ABC News spokesperson says. “We will also cover the speech in our regular network newscasts and, as...

@ZiaYusufUK Tahir Andrabi, a spokesman for Pakistan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs has told the BBC that Pakistan will not take back the Rochdale Monster, Shabir Ahmed. So why did the Tory Labour uniparty send them £6 billion of your money?

This will leave you sleepless in Seattle. Seattleites are abuzz over sightings of a deformed raccoon whose truncated backbone gives it the appearance of a creature not of this earth. The stubby critter, dubbed “Jimothy” by locals, is being tracked online as excited residents share videos of him traversing backyards and balconies in the Emerald City. “For our 13th anniversary, [we] were graced with the presence of Jimothy the raccoon with short spine syndrome. Praise Jimothy!!” one fan captioned an Instagram video showing him darting along a suburban yard and up a set of stone stairs. Though he hasn’t been...

DOHA — With the U.S. blockade of the important waterway back on amid renewed hostilities in Iran, President Donald Trump announced that he would secure the Strait of Hormuz by posting an old man who asks you three questions before you may pass. The old man, who was reportedly discovered by U.S. military officials as he guarded a rickety bridge over a chasm in rural Britain known as the Gorge of Eternal Peril, will now be stationed on a dinghy in the Strait of Hormuz, where he will bar the passage of any vessel unless its crew can answer...

A 43-year-old Trump-hating American woman named Jamey Carney decided to move to Ireland to escape the Bad Orange Man’s reign of terror, shack up with her Palestinian asylum seeker boyfriend, and… well, that misadventure ended about as well as a sentence that begins “I thought the pitbull looked cute, so I petted it…” or “But I thought I could fly…” Spoiler Alert: Her Muslim dreamboat got mad at the uppity infidel and bludgeoned her to death. Who could’ve seen that coming except anybody with eyes? It’s kind of amazing how Darwinism results in a self-cleaning gene pool. No, I would...

Roy Cooper is in trouble. He was popular and unbeatable, but then a Democratic firm, had him only four points ahead of Republican Michael Whatley. His favorability ratings are nearly underwater. People are learning about his relentless support of illegal aliens who have killed American citizens. Democratic survey takers say there’s a path to victory for Republicans in this race, which was largely seen as a Democratic pickup. Republicans, this race is winnable. Send cash to Whatley now.

@RepThomasMassie Though my amendment to strike $3.3 billion in aid to Israel from the State Dept Approps bill did not pass, 104 House Members voted in favor of it. The tide is changing. Americans want their tax dollars to be spent improving things here at home, not waging war and genocide.

Q: Have you visited Fort Knox? BESSENT: I am happy to say, all gold is present and accounted for! The US has the LARGEST pile of gold in the world, over $1 trillion.

King County (Seattle) decided it needs ONE more Ballot Drop Box. Where did they decide to locate it? Bellevue Community College. Current number of students? More than 20,000. Scroll down a few inches at the link and see what the County Drop Box map looks like. Bellevue (154,000) is an affluent suburb that used to be strongly pro-business, a true outlier in King County. Over the last six years, Bellevue City Council has become 100% Hard Left. Tragic.

ST. JOHNS COUNTY, Fla. – The Department of Homeland Security shared a brief update Wednesday morning after an operation in St. Johns County turned deadly on Tuesday. According to the Florida Highway Patrol, a 28-year-old man who ran from ICE agents around 6:45 a.m. Tuesday crossed into the path of a tractor-trailer on State Road 16 and was killed. A DHS spokesperson released this statement about the incident on Wednesday morning: On July 14, DHS law enforcement conducted an operation near St. Johns, Florida. Florida Highway Patrol and HSI are investigating an incident resulting in the death of a Mexican...

A transgender person who was born a male but now identifies as a woman, fled the United States of America for the Netherlands, apparently believing there would be greater freedom there. This same person was recently interviewed and complained about being harassed by Muslim migrants in the Dutch country. How many times have we seen something like this before? People on the left who flee the United States of America looking for something better, almost never find what they are seeking. In fact, they usually end up learning a hard lesson about how much better life is in the United...

We knew it was coming. Now, it’s finally been announced. In a video shared to social media, Joe Biden issued a statement about his forthcoming presidential memoir, Promise Me, America, and the rollout told you almost everything you need to know before you bother to crack the spine. Biden's voice sounded muffled, as if he were talking with a mouthful of cotton balls. It was hard to watch, but I sat through it. "Since I left the presidency, I've had a lot of people ask me, 'Joe, what have you been doing?'" Biden claimed in the video. "I'm dealing with...

This is not a right-wing parody video Toronto Police actually posted this. Toronto authorities thought this video would make us mad. They trotted out Sgt. Rob Chevalier, their "2SLGBTQ" Liaison Officer, with a "sad" story about how he and a gay black dude with fake breasts got made fun of.

A U.S. Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations hearing has reignited debate over COVID-19 vaccines, cancer risks, and scientific transparency. Among the witnesses was Dr. Aseem Malhotra, a London-based consultant cardiologist, who delivered testimony that has sparked intense discussion online and among policymakers.

A former Arizona congressional candidate and ex-Democratic Party leader was arrested last week on charges of felony burglary at an ex-partner’s home. The suspect, Brianna Westbrook, has run for federal and state offices, including a failed 2018 bid for US Congress and losses in Democratic primaries for the Arizona State Senate and Arizona House of Representatives in 2018 and 2022. According to ballotready.org, Westbrook’s professional experience includes serving as the Southwest Regional Co-Chair of the Democratic Socialists of America Immigrant Rights National Working Group from 2019 to the present, and a past stint as Arizona Democratic Party Vice Chair from...

Did you know that Former Vice President Kamala Harris is a fan of the WNBA? Okay, she probably couldn't name more than a couple of teams if you quizzed her, even if she studied all night, but the takeaway here is that she went to a game on Sunday and was given the opportunity to speak to the Los Angeles Sparks (that's one of the teams) after the game. And it was bad. Following the Sparks' 102-87 win over the Chicago Sky, Kamala made her way to the team's locker room to share a few words with the players. In...

They put a bug on my computer that has a 500GB appetite for free space. My computer is 469GB. By the time I was made aware of what's happening my free space was down to ~5GB. MS released a patch, but it requires ~6GB to install and run. By the time I was made aware of the patch, my free space was down to ~2GB. I tried to download the patch several times but it aborted each time for lack of space. I deleted programs and files but as soon as I did, the bug ate the free space. Now,...
