This commercial started out with people in an getting in an elevator, and it started sprinkling water as they're reading their phones and it starts raining in the elevator, which is now full of water, and they're acting like they're drowning in Misinformation. I realize at that point it was a commie demon rat commercial. Apparently, this place is existed for four years. I've never heard of it till this morning. Below their opening statement when you go to their website, first thing I saw was all the people and what city they were in and I knew exactly what...

Ukrainian forces says they are conducting “effective counterattacks” in the Bakhmut area, in comments that are in line with claims from the leader of the Russian mercenary group Wagner that Kyiv has recaptured some territory. Yevgeny Prigozhin on Wednesday accused a Russian brigade of abandoning its position in front-line Bakhmut, allowing Ukraine to seize territory. He has repeatedly accused the defense ministry of failing to give his forces the supplies they need. Prigozhin also accused Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky of lying, after he remarked that Kyiv still needs “a bit more time” before it launches a much anticipated counteroffensive. “Zelensky...

Ukrainian military commanders said on Wednesday that their troops had broken through Russian positions on the southern flank of the embattled eastern city of Bakhmut, forcing Russian units back from their positions at an important bridgehead of a canal. Ukrainian officials and the head of Russia’s Wagner militia group said that Russian troops had lost an area of roughly three square miles southwest of the city. If confirmed, it would be the first significant gain for Ukraine in the fight for Bakhmut since pushing Russian forces off a key access road two months ago, although it was far from clear...

Uvalde school district police chief Pete Arredondo, one of the first responders to last month's elementary school massacre, said he intentionally left his two radios behind when he ran into the building to try and stop the gunman, making it impossible for him to be in contact with most of the other officers on the scene throughout the entire situation. In a phone interview with the Texas Tribune, Arredondo said he left two radios outside the school because he believed they would have slowed him down and that every second mattered. One radio had a clip that may have fallen...

On Thursday, during MSNBC’s “All In,” former Attorney General Eric Holder predicted “high-level” prosecutions of people close to former President Donald Trump. When asked about the Department of Justice, Holder said, “After the revelations from the January 6 Committee and the great job that journalists have done in revealing a whole variety of things, I think you get a sense of the direction of this, and I think you are going to end up with high-level prosecutions of people close to Donald Trump. I think people at the Justice Department are going to be examined, certainly, people involved in the...

Nearly half 49 percent of people who support QAnon said they agree with an old antisemitic theory that the rise of liberalism has "equipped Jews to destroy institutions, and in turn gain control of the world," according to a survey. A poll conducted by Morning Consult, and published Monday, found that 49 percent of QAnon supporters agreed with the claims in The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, the notorious hoax document created in Russia in the early 20th century which helped spread the falsehood about a Jewish conspiracy to control the world. The survey also found that 78 percent...

A mass grave containing the remains of 215 Indigenous children has been discovered on the grounds of a former residential school in the interior of southern British Columbia. The grim discovery at the former school near the town of Kamloops was announced late on Thursday by the Tk’emlups te Secwépemc people after the site was examined by a team using ground-penetrating radar. “We had a knowing in our community that we were able to verify. To our knowledge, these missing children are undocumented deaths,” said Rosanne Casimir, chief of the Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc, in a statement. Some of the remains...

A grade school in a wealthy Pennsylvania school district is requiring children to study a book called "Not My Idea: A Book About Whiteness," which claims "white people who relate to police officers or decline to watch the news are complicit in racism." The Washington Free Beacon reported Gladwyne Elementary in Lower Merion School District assigned the book for fourth and fifth graders. The curriculum also assigns "A Kid's Book About Racism" to kindergarten and first graders, the report said.

NO ONE KNOWS THE DAY OR THE HOUR? At the Time of the End, the wise shall understand. Dan 12:10 Understanding the expression "No man knows the day or hour" is not possible by simply taking the English translation literally, because in the book of Daniel and the Book of Revelation, we are given EXACT descriptions of timing, relative to KEY events - such as the shutting down of the altar sacrifices in Jerusalem at the MID-POINT of the 70th week. Dan 9:27 Jesus was asked, "When shall these things be?" Matt 24:3 His answer ties us in to a...

Hillary Clinton says Bernie Sanders’s reluctance to concede the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination before the party’s convention was disrespectful, hurtful and stood in stark contrast to the way she handled her primary loss to Barack Obama in 2008. “I had such a different experience in ’08,” Clinton said in an interview with the “Pod Save America” podcast that was posted on Tuesday. “Once it was over, it was over. And I quickly endorsed President Obama. I worked really hard to get him elected. I was still arguing with my supporters at the Denver convention, telling people, ‘Don’t be ridiculous. You’ve...

"In the past, for reasons I can't explain, I've often felt I had to be careful in public, like I was on a wire without a net. Now I'm letting my guard down." -Hillary Clinton

Since the Debbie Wasserman Shultz-Awan connection has come to light I have watched to see if it would be given a fair outing in the mainstream media, and so far, I have heard nary a mention. Are the reported allegations that a United States Congresswoman and former head of the DNC continued to pay the salary of a Pakistani IT expert long after he had been denied access to congressional computers – in fact right up to the point when he was arrested by the FBI at an international airport trying to leave the country – of no interest to...

Quoting the Pointer Sisters song, “I'm so excited!” Black pop icon Snoop Dogg's comments about the remake of the “Roots” TV series, in essence, is what I have been preaching to fellow blacks for decades (without his profanity). Snoop said, “I'm sick of this s---. They are going to just keep beating that s--- into our heads about how they did us, huh?” Snoop spoke against new shows and movies such as “12 Years a Slave” which “keep showing the abuse we took hundreds and hundreds of years ago.” Snoop said, “I ain't watching that s---, and I advise you...

Obama did not grow up in a religious household and became a practicing Christian as an adult. He has written more extensively about his spiritual awakening than almost any other modern president, addressing it in two books before he was elected to the White House and in more than a dozen speeches since. His faith had been central to his identity as a new kind of Democrat who would bring civility to the country's political debates by appealing to Republicans through the shared language of their Judeo-Christian values. With just one year left in his second term, Obama now holds...

Americans are inveterate tinkerers — a trait commented on by observers from de Tocqueville to Winston Churchill. That’s why it’s not surprising that the bureaucrats at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services would want to keep tweaking Obamacare. Mind you, it’s not so much because they think they can perfect the law. Rather, they keep tweaking the law in order to keep the American people from brandishing pitchforks and coming to Washington to tar and feather them and ride them out of town on a rail. Self-preservation can be a marvelous motivating factor. The geniuses who brought us the...

There is no more misleading imagery than the ad run by Democrats in which a Paul Ryan-looking figure throws Granny off a cliff due to Medicare cuts: (Ad at link) The ad has it exactly opposite to reality. Republican proposals would keep Medicare the same for people already in the system or 10 years away from entering the system. Nothing would affect Granny, but restructuring would save Medicare for future generations while easing the national debt burden. **snip**Mediscare is an age-old Democratic tactic, but this time it’s different because left as is Medicare goes bankrupt in Granny’s lifetime and bursts...

Hollywood, CA (AHN) - Writing to an email list of his supporters that his follow-up documentary to "Fahrenheit 9/11," Michael Moore says "Sicko" is about three-quarters done and on target for a 2007 release by the Weinstein Co. Moore writes, "We've spent the better part of the year shooting our next movie, 'Sicko.' As we've done with our other films, we don't discuss them while we are making them," adding that, "If people ask, we tell them 'Sicko' is 'a comedy about the 45 million people with no health care in the richest country on Earth." Adding that he received...

...HANNITY: Because you had made a controversial statement, and you seem to be backing off of it now, and it was that people that are here illegally, that they all ought to be sent back. I'm paraphrasing. And it seems like now you've sort of backed off that position a little bit, because there are million that we estimate that are in this country illegally. Why wouldn't we send them back? CHERTOFF: ...I also recognize we've got, according to some estimates, 10 to 11 million illegals already in this country working. And the cost of identifying all of those people...
