A Harvard scientist claims her colleagues were afraid of voicing support for the Wuhan lab leak theory, a possible origin for the coronavirus pandemic, because they were afraid of being “associated with Trump.” The comments tend to indicate that experts were guided more by politics than their allegiance to ‘the Science.’ Alina Chan, a postdoctoral associate at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard University who specializes in genetic engineering, is one of 18 researchers who published a letter in the journal Science last month calling for a more in-depth investigation into the virus’s origin.

Hillary Clinton, who frequently cast doubt on the results of the 2016 election, says doing so regarding the 2020 presidential contest is “doing Putin’s work.” Clinton made the unsurprising remarks in an interview on MSNBC’s ‘Morning Joe.’ “We never thought we had to worry about domestic enemies,” the former First Lady lamented. “We never thought we had to worry about people who didn’t believe in our democracy.” “Sadly, what we’ve seen over the last four years and particularly since the election is that we have people in our own country who are doing Putin’s work,” she claimed.

According to The Daily Mail, a document from a meeting with the European Commission revealed that Facebook Vice President Nick Clegg admitted that his company’s ‘fact-checkers’ could be politically biased. While many on the left have supported steps the social media giant took to try to stamp out “misinformation” and “fake news,” conservatives have warned all along that that the fact-checkers would likely be biased and left-wing. Conservative outlets – like The Political Insider – have been deeply and negatively impacted by Facebook’s biased “fact-checking” partners. Facebook’s reversal of their policy to block content suggesting that COVID came from a...

Texas Governor Greg Abbott announced that his state will push forward and build its own wall at the southern border. Abbott revealed the Lone Star State’s plans to Breitbart shortly before a border summit in Del Rio, Texas on Thursday. Those plans were confirmed at the summit and reported by CBS Dallas-Fort Worth. “I will announce next week the plan for the state of Texas to begin building the border wall in the state of Texas,” he declared at the event.

An Interior Department report published Wednesday shows police never cleared Lafayette Park of protesters last summer so President Trump could stage a Bible photo-op, as was reported by the mainstream media. Protesters, resistance lawmakers, the media, and Joe Biden all used the incident at the time to portray the former President as a dictator, clearing the park of riff-raff so he could assert his authority. The report by the department’s Inspector General indicates federal police officers cleared the park instead so a contractor could install fencing. “That finding … is likely to surprise many critics of Trump, who have long...

The Daily Mail has revealed shocking text messages from Hunter Biden showing him using racial slurs and repeatedly using the n-word with his white lawyer in conversations. The news comes just days after his father, President Joe Biden, gave an emotional speech on the 100th anniversary of the Tulsa Race Massacre, in which he condemned racism. Corporate attorney George Mesires, who is white, is allegedly referred to in the text messages multiple times as being black or referenced as a variation of the n-word.

The release of the Fauci emails has given birth to hundreds of great memes, but maybe none so great as the meme that showed Kermit the Frog sitting on a log, playing a banjo and singing with the words “Here’s a little song I wrote called your conspiracy theorist friend was right and you owe them an apology.” The meme is not only hilarious, it’s true. For much of the last 15 months, the media and the left treated Anthony Fauci as a demi-God. A hero of the pandemic and a man who was beyond reproach. Any criticism of Fauci...

The federal probe into New York Gov. Cuomo’s office allegedly fudging the numbers on nursing homes in the state during the coronavirus pandemic combined with multiple sexual harassment charges reportedly stand at about $2.5 million currently. And, it’s a cost that could be paid for by taxpayers. This is a possibility is according to an Associated Press story on Tuesday. “Taxpayers are set to foot the bill for a $2.5 million contract for lawyers representing Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s office in an ongoing federal investigation over his administration’s handling of COVID-19 data in nursing homes, the governor said Wednesday,” the Associated...

Former President Trump put out a statement Friday in response to former Speaker of the House Paul Ryan‘s speech Thursday night. In the statement, Trump accused Ryan of being a Republican in name only.Trump scoffed Ryan’s advice for conservatives to win elections, saying he “was the single biggest fact, other than Romney himself, for the monumental Romney/Ryan loss in the Presidential race of 2012.” Meanwhile, “I got more votes by far,” Trump wrote, “75M than any other sitting president in history!” “Interestingly, I was in the Great State of Wisconsin when they booed him off the stage,” Trump went on....

Donald Trump is reportedly teaming up with Newt Gingrich on a new ‘MAGA doctrine’ for the Republican Party, using the famed “Contract with America” as a framework. The work is yet another signal that Trump is prepared to drag the Republican Party toward a more America-centric platform with an eye on the 2022 midterms and the 2024 presidential election. Politico is reporting that the former President “has begun crafting a policy agenda outlining a MAGA doctrine for the party,” adding that “his template is the 1994 ‘Contract with America.'”

Fox News published an exclusive report late Wednesday in which Republicans on the House Intelligence Committee said there is “significant circumstantial evidence” that the COVID-19 outbreak emanated from a Wuhan Institute of Virology leak. The committee Republicans pushed for the federal government to put “more pressure on China” to carry out a “full, credible investigation” into the origin of the global coronavirus pandemic. According to Fox News, Committee Republican Ranking Member Devin Nunes said that it is “crucial for health experts and the U.S. government to understand how the COVID-19 virus originated” in order to prevent “or quickly mitigate future...

On Thursday, the Center For Disease Control (CDC) made the announcement nearly every American has been waiting for: people who are fully vaccinated for COVID-19 no longer need to wear a mask either indoors or out, or practice social distancing. CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky said on Thursday afternoon, “We have all longed for this moment when we can get back to some sense of normalcy.” President Joe Biden also seemed happy to announce that one of the most burdensome requirements on Americans due to the Coronavirus pandemic, wearing a face mask, was going away.

The 1957 film, The Three Faces of Eve, was about dissociative personality disorder, then known as multiple personality syndrome. It was a hard film based on an actual case of a woman who suffered from the condition. It is not much of a leap to describe the Republican Party as currently constituted as suffering from the same malady. There are the true small-government, liberty-loving constitutionalists like Devin Nunes, Jim Jordan, Tom Cotton, Matt Gaetz, Ron Johnson, Josh Hawley, Elise Stefanik, Steve Scalise, Rand Paul, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Ted Cruz, Louie Gohmert, and John Kennedy. Then there are the squishes, who...

The other day, I wrote that “woke” was the new conformism. It is, of course, but I undersold it. It’s much more than that and more dangerous. As Tal Bachman notes at Steynonline, it’s now our state religion, a state religion in a country that—constitutionally and for good reason—isn’t supposed to have one. But “Wokism” is yet more than that, too. It’s a mass psychosis similar to many that have arisen throughout history when the masses followed leaders who, in their zeal or self-interest, took them to disastrous ends.

California gubernatorial candidate Caitlyn Jenner supports providing a pathway to citizenship for the state’s roughly two million illegal aliens. The former Olympic athlete turned transgender activist announced the policy position during an interview with CNN’s Dana Bash, which is set to air Monday night.

CNN, New Day, Friday, May 7, 2021, around 8:50am. "Week That Was" Among the CNN talking points wrapped into "events/facts", Brianna Keilar said these words: "Republicans say Biden isn't bipartisan enough." The word "enough" is key. It's a lie. As if GOP say he is bipartisan 'AT ALL.'

Browsing a bit of CNN, just in between other things, for the purpose, to see what they are propogating... Their newest "boogyman/woman" They have a huge problem, trying to make the Liz Cheney affair as "sexist", yet, Stefaik is no male... and they still pushed for the "it's also about sexist" injection narrative. Their contradicting lines was so pathetic. Next, they seek to demonize Stefanik, as if it's not about principles. As if Trump didn't inact certain consrvative policies. Borders-security; not bowing to fascist Islamic Republuc of Iran, and much more.

You gotta watch this.

On Sunday, Former President Trump released a statement criticizing President Biden’s decision to push back the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan.
