It was also described as “cocaine hydrochloride,” with suggestions it could be an anesthetic.Then came the report that it was in the White House library, which is on the ground floor of the executive mansion, according to the Washington Post.But now the Secret Service is contradicting that report...

As more and more parents and communities have begun paying attention to the “grooming” nature of LGBTQ books and other materials available to minors in school and public libraries, many of those parents and communities have pushed back against such grooming. In fact in towns, cities, counties, and states across America, policies, ordinances, and laws are being passed to protect children. But in contrast to good pushing back in those places, evil appears to be pushing forward in other places. And Illinois — famous for liberal policies that seem to constantly bring cities such as Chicago to the brink of...

Kudos to the LBJ Presidential Library in Austin for posting to the web copies of tapes that prove that Lyndon Baines Johnson stole his seat in the Senate when first running for it. Johnson went on to absolutely dominate the Senate as Majority Leader, and from there he managed to become president when JFK was assassinated in his home state of Texas while he was VP. The stolen election was the Democrat primary, which back then was tantamount to election because Democrats dominated the segregated South of the era. Johnson defeated former Texas Governor Coke Stevenson by 87 votes, after...

It is reported that the library staff at the Hendersonville library...

As a general rule, it’s a good idea to leave the parenting to the parents. Odds are that a stranger online won’t know someone’s kid as well as the kid’s parent and should mind their own business. That’s certainly the thought behind legislation that seeks to prevent the public school system from usurping the rights of parents. But sometimes, what looks like bad parenting is, in fact, bad parenting. And this, friends, is, without a doubt, unequivocally bad parenting: Absolute undeniable narcissism. This lady claims to have a TEN YEAR OLD pansexual and that she would not have taken her...
