The Washington, D.C.-based Federal Bureau of Investigation has lost all credibility as a disinterested investigatory agency. Now we learn from a whistleblower that the agency was allegedly investigating moms and dads worried about the teaching of critical race theory in their kids' schools. In truth, since 2015, the FBI has been constantly in the news - and mostly in a negative and constitutionally disturbing light. The fired former Director James Comey injected himself into the 2016 political race by constantly editorializing on his ongoing investigation of candidate Hillary Clinton's email leaks. In a bizarre twist, the public learned later that...

I know he was legally allowed to have a gun that evening but is there still controversy surrounding it’s purchase and sale?

It's important to note that there's a difference between deleting your Facebook account and deactivating it. Deactivating your Facebook account temporarily freezes it... But that does nothing to prevent the company from tracking your online activity. 1. Delete the Facebook app from your phone and tablet ... To fully separate from Facebook, deleting your account is the only answer. Deleting it also severs ties to Facebook Messenger, the platform's chat app. (If you want to also get rid of Instagram and WhatsApp, which are Facebook properties, you'll have to do that separately.) 3. Disconnect your Facebook account from other apps...

Windows 11 started to roll out, but is your laptop ready for the new OS? Find out using the PC Health Check app WhyNotWin11 and other options. _______________________________________________________________________________ Microsoft will phase out Windows 10 support over the next few years, so it's important to make sure your device supports Windows 11. Sarah Tew/CNET Windows 11 arrived Tuesday (here's our full Windows 11 review) and the big question on a lot of PC users' minds since Microsoft unveiled its first major operating system upgrade in six years is, will my computer be compatible? There's been some confusion about device compatibility since...

For countless Americans, the summer and fall are not shaping up as they expected — and small business owners are no exception. Only 235,000 jobs were added to the economy in August, despite economists predicting up to 750,000. It was the worst jobs report since January. The shortage of American workers continues to wreak havoc on the economic recovery. Employers cannot be expected to grow a business and create new jobs when they are struggling to fill the positions it takes to simply get through the day. And it’s not just small businesses that are feeling the strain of the...

There has long been a movement to ditch Google Chrome, but many people end up going back to the browser, simply because it functions well and many apps are optimised for it. But recent moves by Google—such as the delayed but widely believed to be privacy-infringing FLoC update—are pushing people to say it: Enough is enough, it’s time to quit Chrome. *** Firefox is the number one alternative if you want to ditch Chrome, and that’s because of its privacy ethos. Firefox is owned by Mozilla, a non-profit, so it doesn’t need to perform tracking to serve you ads. ***...

The United Nations has called on Western countries around the world to donate $600 million in taxpayer money to help the Taliban settle in after taking over Afghanistan. On Monday, the U.N. opened a high-level donors conference with demands for member states to help fund the terrorist group’s self-declared Islamic Caliphate of Afghanistan over the next three months.

Biden announces six-part plan to tackle COVID-19 pandemic

"I am a Naturopathic Medical Doctor in Arizona, and in this state I have served as expert witness regarding vaccine injury in court cases. I ask that you, the reader, consider the information in the links below, before submitting to the experimental COVID vaccine." 1) Is the COVID vaccine experimental? The FDA granted “emergency use authorization” for these vaccines. Emergency use authorization is required by law to be made only if there are no effective treatments for COVID. a. But are there effective COVID treatments? 100s of studies done around the world have established, and repeatedly confirmed, fast, effective, safe...

Washington, Sept. 5 (CNA) Former United States Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Sunday called on the U.S. to stand with Taiwan after 19 Chinese military aircraft, a majority of them being fighter jets, flew into Taiwan's air defense identification zone (ADIZ) early Sunday. "The United States must always stand with Taiwan and for freedom," Pompeo said in a tweet, which also included a Bloomberg report on the Chinese warplanes' Sunday incursion. In the same vein, former U.S. ambassador to Japan and incumbent senator William Hagerty also shared the same Bloomberg report in his twitter account on Sunday. "Communist China...

There are many troubling aspects to the COVID vaccines and the growing mandates for them. Here I'd like to focus on one that is rarely discussed. To begin with, when these unapproved vaccines were first made available to the public on an emergency basis, many people rushed headlong to get one. They were in a near panic. I saw this myself. This was due, to a large extent, to the panic whipped up in the mainstream media. The COVID virus was reported to be deadly. Its death toll (which we now know was highly inflated) was used to induce fear....

Americans abandoned to their fate by the Biden Regime should not seek safety at the U.S. embassy unless they always wanted to experience the 1979 Iranian hostage situation for themselves. Given the undeniable willful dereliction of duty, dishonesty, and tragicomic incompetence of the Biden Regime, does any sane person truly believe that Biden will protect any Americans who will become trapped in the U.S. embassy? Americans refugees should seek shelter at the Chinese embassy in Kabul because the Chinese communists would love to embarrass Biden and the fools infesting D.C. by protecting Americans sheltering in their Kabul embassy. The ChiComs...

In May, the Supreme Court put abortion on the docket for its upcoming session by agreeing to hear Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization. The high court's decision to hear this case registered on the seismometer of every American that carefully follows the abortion issue. It means that Roe v. Wade, which has defined abortion reality in the country since 1973, is open to review and could be overturned. The Mississippi law in question, which bans abortion after 15 weeks of pregnancy, was struck down by an appeals court in 2019. The state then appealed to the Supreme Court. Last...

President Joe Biden's former coronavirus czar scolded Americans for not sacrificing enough during the past year to stem the pandemic. Andy Slavitt, who resigned as a senior adviser to the White House pandemic response team last week, suggested that Americans were selfish and have only themselves to blame for the tragedies of the past year. He made the snide comments Monday on "CBS This Morning" while shilling his new book “Preventable: The Inside Story of How Leadership Failures, Politics, and Selfishness Doomed the U.S. Coronavirus Response."

Tests of Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine started Monday in Louisiana have started for children ages 5 through 11 NEW ORLEANS -- Seven-year-old Russell Bright squeezed his dad’s hand tightly as tests of Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine started Monday in Louisiana for children ages 5 through 11. Children held stuffed animals, played under chairs and a few cried at Ochsner Medical Center, just outside New Orleans. Their temperature and blood pressure were checked, their noses swabbed and their blood drawn for tests. Finally, they got a shot of either the vaccine or a placebo. Ochsner is among 98 facilities in 26 states, the...

At a stop in New Hampshire on Thursday night, former Vice President Mike Pence defended his actions on January 6 and, in the process, may well have doomed (or at the very least hamstrung) his chances of emerging as the Republican presidential nominee in 2024. "January 6 was a dark day in the history of the US Capitol," Pence said. "That same day we reconvened the Congress and did our duty. ... You know, President Trump and I have spoken many times since we left office and I don't know if we'll ever see eye to eye on that day."...
