The world first started to hear about a novel coronavirus in early January 2020, with reports of an alleged new pneumonia like illness spreading across Wuhan, China. However, the world did not actually know of Covid-19 until February 2020, because it was not until the 11th of that month that the World Health Organisation officially named the novel coronavirus disease as Covid-19. So with this being the official truth, why does United States Government data show that the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) awarded a contract on the 12th November 2019 to Labyrinth Global Health INC. for ‘COVID-19 Research’, at...

Kentucky Republican wants to redirect proposed Afghanistan aid to finance Israel's missile defense system In the latest hurdle to Israel receiving $1 billion in funding to replenish its Iron Dome missile defense system after May's Gaza conflict, Republican Senator Rand Paul from Kentucky has blocked swift passage of the bill, Politico reports. The lawmaker is an opponent of US foreign aid and is insisting that the Iron Dome money be offset by redirecting financial assistance for Afghanistan. “He proposed that we pay for the House bill with money that is going to go to the Taliban,” a spokeswoman for the...

At a campaign rally in Prescott, Arizona on Monday, President Trump attacked one of his favorite media targets, calling CNN “dumb bastards” for focusing coverage on the coronavirus pandemic that the president insisted people were “getting tired of.” “You turn on CNN, that’s all they cover,” the president said. “Covid, Covid, pandemic, Covid, Covid. You know why? They’re trying to talk people out of voting. People aren’t buying it, CNN, you dumb bastards.” Of the coronavirus, the president said “if you have it, you have it, you get better.”

Fox News host Mark Levin will interview Attorney General William Barr on Sunday during “Life, Liberty & Levin,” the network announced on Thursday. The hourlong interview, which will air Sunday at 8 p.m. EDT, is expected to include a candid conversation about the government’s response to the coronavirus pandemic, civil unrest across the nation and a variety of other topics. Levin recently appeared on "Watters' World" and criticized Democrats for their treatment of Barr during a House Judiciary Committee hearing last month, calling it a "disgrace." "I've never seen a senior official of any administration ever treated like that," Levin...

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) on Monday said he believed many of President Trump’s tweets have “coarsened discussion,” but praised the president for having “a backbone." “So many of us are so sick and tired of Republicans that roll over and whimper when encountering the slightest resistance. And I think probably the best characteristic about the president is he’s got a backbone. And he will fight,” Cruz told conservative talk radio host Hugh Hewitt, when asked how the president has changed the Republican Party. “Now I will say ... I wish his tone and some of the things he said were...

“Spygate” — the revelation that the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) used at least one informant to infiltrate Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign — provides further vindication of the contention made in March 2017 by conservative radio host Mark Levin, Breitbart News, and President Trump (in that order) that the Obama administration conducted surveillance of the opposition in an attempt to monitor, defeat, and delegitimize it. As Breitbart News recalled earlier this year: On March 2, 2017, Levin noted mainstream media reports that suggested that law enforcement and intelligence agencies had conducted surveillance of Trump associates during the last months...

The Department of Justice has caved to pressure from the White House and is reportedly reopening the investigation into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server. According to the Daily Beast, there is a new effort in the department to get new details on how Clinton and her aides — including former top aide Huma Abedin — handled classified material. The effort will look at how much classified information was on her private email server, and how that information got there. President Trump has continually questioned if and when the Justice Department would reopen its...

This is a rush transcript from "Your World," January 3, 2018. This copy may not be in its final form and may be updated. NEIL CAVUTO, "YOUR WORLD" HOST: You know, this whole day seems to have been like this internal war back and forth, the Bannonites, the Trumpites, whether it's the establishment, which is hard to say, because neither of those guys are establishment going against the renegade groups. [snip] CAVUTO: It wasn't just a tweet. It was a very clear, delineated statement. What is going on? GINGRICH: Well, look, I think, Neil, first of all, Bannon has an...

After eight long years of a lawless Obama Department of Justice, it is fitting--and sad--that the very last act of the Obama DOJ is for the Acting AG to defy the newly elected President, refuse to enforce the law, and force the President to fire her. Sally Yates now joins the ignominious succession, from Eric Holder to Loretta Lynch, of Attorneys General who put brazen partisan interests above fidelity to law. President Trump was exactly right to fire an acting Attorney General who refused to carry out her constitutional duty to enforce and defend the law. Yates’ lawless partisanship highlights...

Between six and eight weeks ago I became aware of a man who seemed to share my political thoughts and goals.  I was assured he did by a number of people on this forum.  His name was Tom McClintock, California State Senator and candidate for Governor of California.  I was glad to share those forum participant's views of Tom.  I looked forward to supporting him thinking he would make a great governor. My political beliefs don't just touch on ideology, and I don't just say so, I actually care what type of person I'm going to vote for.  Unlike others,...

I would like to take a few moments to reflect upon the reasons why I have become involded with organiziations that promote conservative values. Any questions? Wihtout conservatism, there is no future. First it was my children.  Now it is their children that drive me to promote conservative values.
