    One of the state's first harm reduction community centers has abruptly closed, leaving extreme filth so severe that the building is condemned. Fecal matter, thousands of used needles and people sleeping in the basement were all found inside a commercial building now locked up and slapped with a condemned notice. One of the doors had been broken into and from there, you have access through the rest of the building,” Lewiston City Building Inspector Travis Tardiff said. “Several other doors had been unlocked to allow other people in.” Most of the building is empty, but the Church of Safe Injection...

  • Trump hits ABC, NBC as ‘FAKE NEWS,’ says he’d support FCC revoking licenses

    President Trump went on a late-night attack against NBC and ABC News on Sunday, deriding them for what, in his view, was "biased" coverage and said he would be in favor of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) revoking their licenses. The Republican president said the news outlets had given him negative coverage on "97%" of stories. It wasn’t clear from where Trump was citing the "97%" figure. A study released earlier this year by the conservative media watchdog group, Media Research Center (MRC), found that coverage of the president’s first 100 days in office was "92% negative." "IF THAT IS...
  • REPORT: Muslim Student Was Exempted From Suspension in Loudoun County Locker Room Case Where Boys Objected to Presence of Female

    A group of boys at a grade school in Loudoun County in Virginia were recently suspended from school because they objected to a female student in their locker room who identifies as male. The female student even took pictures in the locker room but the boys were suspended for objecting. The case is outrageous. The Gateway Pundit reported on this story: The radical madness in Loudoun County, Virginia, just hit a new low. Loudoun County Public Schools (LCPS) has decided to SUSPEND two boys at Stone Bridge High School, not because they misbehaved, not because they broke the law, but...

    The German welfare state is no longer financially sustainable, Friedrich Merz said on Saturday. The chancellor argued for a fundamental reassessment of the benefits system as spending continues to soar past last year’s record of €47bn (£40bn). In a state-level party conference meeting on Saturday, Mr Merz said: “The welfare state as we have it today can no longer be financed with what we can economically afford.” Once the export champion of Europe, Germany’s economy has slowed dramatically since 2017, with GDP growing by only 1.6 per cent since then versus 9.5 per cent for the rest of the eurozone....

    According to letter to Bondi, emails show seminars were conducted by experts who were ideologically motivated in favor of the plaintiffs in these cases. An energy advocacy group is asking Attorney General Pam Bondi to examine the involvement of the Federal Judiciary Center, a research and education agency of the judicial branch of the U.S. government, in educating judges involved in climate litigation. According to a letter to Bondi from Power the Future, the Federal Judiciary Center (FJC) is engaged in a secretive effort to bias judges as part of a “coordinated, national lawfare campaign” against oil companies and...

    Appeals court says NLRB structure unconstitutional, in a win for SpaceX Aria Alamalhodaei 11:42 AM PDT · August 19, 2025 A federal appeals court handed SpaceX a win on Tuesday, in a ruling that prevents the National Labor Relations Board from prosecuting unfair labor practices against the company. The ruling by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, which suggests the structure of the NLRB is likely unconstitutional, could have far-reaching effects. The ruling keeps unfair labor practice cases against SpaceX and two other companies, Energy Transfer and Findhelp, on hold while the companies pursue their claim that...

    A deranged woman was hit with federal charges Monday after threatening to kill President Trump in a disturbing social media post and subsequent interview with the Secret Service. Nathalie Rose Jones, 50, was arrested on Saturday after she made the threats on Facebook and Instagram and then traveled from New York to Washington, DC, with the goal of having Trump “eliminated” if the opportunity presented itself, DC US Attorney Jeanine Pirro said Monday. “I am willing to sacrificially kill this POTUS by disemboweling him and cutting out his trachea with Liz Cheney and all The Affirmation present,” Jones allegedly wrote...

    LOS ANGELES — Downtown in the City of Angels is looking more and more like a ghost town. The famed Los Angeles neighborhood has become a shadow of its former glory — with rows of boarded up shops, chain stores leaving in droves and hoards of drug-using vagrants sparking major safety concerns for shoppers and business owners alike. The Post can reveal that there are more than 100 vacant storefronts in the area’s Historic Core, which was the rip-roaring heart of the downtown shopping and entertainment district. A map of business closures in the Historic Core of LA / Donald...

    Blackfeet Chief Two Guns White Calf was my great uncle and a great American icon. Americans know his face: he was the face of the Washington Redskins for 48 years, until he was cancelled in 2020. Americans once knew his story. White Calf defended tribal traditions in our Blackfeet homeland in Montana, where many of us still live today. He went to Washington D.C. where he forced the U.S. government to honor Indian treaties. He served as a model for the U.S. Mint’s famous 1913 “Indian head” nickel. White Calf’s face is still a collector’s item. ... White Calf became...

    For mentally ill leftists, fake is real, and real is fake. Social media sherpa “The Chief Nerd” posted a video clip of “entertainers” Jimmy Kimmel and Sarah Silverman discussing their anxiety over President Trump’s return to the White House. Kimmel says he obtained citizenship in Italy so he can escape America. Silverman thinks that is “amazing” and describes how she searches online for “Trump regrets or MAGA regrets” in the hopes that Americans’ shared misery “will bring people together.” They both agree: “As bad as you thought it was gonna be, it’s so much worse.” Celebrity therapy sessions such as...

    They didn’t just lie. They hid the paper trail—until now. They didn’t just bury the truth. They sealed it in burn bags and locked it away inside FBI headquarters—marked for destruction before detection. But one man asked the right questions, found the right room, and uncovered the evidence before it went up in smoke. That’s right. The most consequential political scandal of a generation—the Russia Hoax—consumed the Democrat party, Never Trumpers, and the legacy media. Its narrative became a creed for the political left, even after it was debunked and discredited. Yet it lingers still, a scaffold upon which they...

    While most of the country has erupted in outrage after an angry mob savagely assaulted two white people in downtown Cincinnati over the weekend, one prominent local politician has the exact opposite reaction to the story. As The Gateway Pundit reported, a group of black individuals smacked around a bald white guy at the intersection of West Fourth Street and Elm Street in downtown Cincy and beat him so bad that he could not get up. Then, a white woman got slugged by one of the cowards. Her head slammed down onto the concrete, and she lost consciousness. Blood was...

    Six years ago, I described Donald Trump as “our first Jewish President” because his enemies subjected him to the types of attacks that antisemites reserve for Jews. The case grows stronger with each passing year. The attacks against Trump – constant lies, exaggerated hysterics, lawfare, betrayals from within, cultural defamation, the hopes for his suffering, the murder attempts, etc. – are far too familiar from history’s war against the Jews. To choose only last week’s antisemitic salvo, a Turkish state-run news agency published a grim, pieta-like photo of a healthy mother holding a frail, emaciated child as proof that Israel...

    Preface. This is my book review of Chris Mooney’s 2012 “The Republican Brain. The Science of Why They Deny Science—and Reality”. This has grown from a review of this book (far below) to more recent science and writing on the conservative mind. People who want certainty and do not like change or changing their mind have been with us since humans evolved. That is discussed in another post: Garcia, H. 2019. Sex, Power, and Partisanship. How evolutionary science makes sense of our political divide. Lately with all the division and even talk of civil war, there have been many broadcasts...
