If it were me, and I’d just won a large judgment based on my claim that I experienced forceful sexual assault in a department store dressing room by an aggressive and powerful man who towers over me, an experience that caused me severe trauma after the event, I wouldn’t write a book capitalizing on one of my attackers most iconic catchprases, and I certainly wouldn’t be tweeting about him nonstop, nearly thirty years after the act at the center of my lawsuit. I would want to block that man out of my life as much as possible lest his name,...

(See also, “The Jeffrey Epstein Case Is Far Bigger Than Jeffrey Epstein” by Vince Coyner.)It’s fairly rare that I agree with Glenn Beck on a political issue (he’s too much of a neocon for me), but he recently posted a brilliant thread on X detailing “five conclusions…for anyone who still cares about truth” on the latest chapter of the Jeffrey Epstein cover-up, this development unfolding under the Trump administration. (For brevity’s sake I won’t include the whole thread, but the beginning of it can be found here.)Now, I’ve seen a number of Republicans and conservatives declare that to some degree...

What radicalized me? Oh gee I don’t know, maybe stories like this one? Per a report at Fox News, township officials in the unincorporated community of Cranbury, NJ are in the process of seizing a historic family farm that has been under the family’s ownership for 175 years—that means since 1850—because they want to use it for a welfare housing project. Benji Farraro reports that in April, Andy and Christopher Henry, the two brothers who currently own the farm, received a letter that informed them that Cranbury would be seizing all 21 acres, but government officials have now decided that...

Congressional Republicans are the absolute worst, for many reasons, but this time, it has to do with the “big” and “beautiful” tax bill that’s working its way toward Donald Trump’s desk—Republicans, despite holding both houses, as well as the Oval Office, are set to retain hundreds of billions of dollars in Green New Deal provisions, if they get their way.##According to Michel and Loucks, “conservative estimates” of the costs of the Green New Deal subsidies, provided by “government scorekeepers,” come with an $852 billion price tag for taxpayers—but that’s just between 2026 and 2035. As they note, “That’s up dramatically...

A reformed Chicago gangster sounds the alarm on what’s brewing in the Windy City: a metropolis “up in flames” and a bloody turf war of “blacks” versus “migrants.” Tyrone Muhammad was once a Chiraq gangbanger whose life changed after he spent twenty years in a state prison for a murder conviction. Since his release, he’s devoted his energy to street patrols and violence prevention, starting a group known as Ex-Cons for Community and Social Change, and he’s warning the public about what he sees as a very real possibility if the Biden-Harris illegal aliens continue to be given the free...

According to the data, five percent of the global Syrian population now live in Germany alone, accounting for a “16-fold” increase in just a decade, which works out to be a staggering 1,520% jump in the numbers; here’s the story from a new report by the editorial staff at Remix News:Ever since the 2015/16 migrant crisis, Syrians have arrived in Germany in ever-increasing numbers, and now number at least 972,000 at the end of 2023, according to Statista. There are 22 million Syrians living in Syria itself, meaning those in Germany represent nearly 1 for every 20 in their native...

In a completely predictable turn of events, one of the Ponzi schemes that the federal government has been running is set to collapse in just a few short years. Here’s this, from an item out at FOX Business today:The head actuaries for Social Security and Medicare testified before a House panel on Thursday about the two safety net programs’ looming financial woes that could see key trust funds depleted in roughly a decade, which would leave beneficiaries facing a benefit cut if the funding gap isn’t resolved by Congress.Trustees for Social Security and Medicare recently released a report that looked...

Laura Loomer On Why Ronna McDaniel May Step Down In The Near Future: “She Knows That She’s Done” (2 minute audio in the link below)https://twitter.com/gc22gc/status/1752181358431281366

Peace breeds prosperity, and prosperity gives way to indulgence and decadence; there’s no greater display of that reality than the one seen when you observe the antics and behaviors of the Self-Imagined Elites of the American political class running our country into the ground.The idea that you live within your means and exercise fiscal responsibility, especially when you’re dealing with other people’s money, should not be controversial. And, it’s certainly not a lot to ask of people who masquerade as our representatives, ostensibly in service to the public, and claim to be looking out for the general welfare of the...

There’s a funny idiosyncrasy among conservative-thinking or “s–t-posting” social media users, and that is they’ll often use alternating upper-case and lower-case letters in succession to mock a leftist position. See a few examples below: “No CuLtUrE iS sUpErIoR oVeR aNoThEr” “DiVeRsItY iS oUr StReNgTh” “MuLtIcUlTuRaLiSm Is GoOd” Well two separate Halloween incidents, captured by doorbell cameras, prove all those leftist assertions completely and utterly false. Here’s the first: [video at link] Now, here’s the second: [video at link] The contrast couldn’t be more stark, and frankly, farcical. Naturally, I assume the people in the first video are… transplants to America…...

In December of 1776, General Washington and his small army were retreating back across New York, New Jersey, and into Pennsylvania. They were hungry, cold, and so lacking in necessities that many men were barefoot in freezing temperatures. Why were they there? Because just five and a half months earlier, the Declaration of Independence had been signed. These men believed in those self-evident truths so much, they were willing to die for them — as Nathan Hale said, his only regret was that he had “but one life to lose for his country.” As much as we might want to,...

Remember when President Trump was running the show, and the U.S. had a real “red line” in the sand, and he sent tier one military units to track down Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, who promptly detonated a suicide vest killing himself and several of his own children? And then The Washington Post referred to the dead terrorist as an “austere religious scholar”? Well, the History Channel has taken it up a notch. In the leftwing media’s latest display of perverse obsession with figures of mass slaughter, Che Guevara is once again painted as a chic and charming hero.

More frightening than the speech, is the willingness of Americans to gorge on the rhetoric. I actually missed Biden’s Thursday-night speech in real-time, but when I woke up yesterday morning, I discovered that what I thought were memes, were actually soundbites and unmanipulated images. Staging by Leni Riefenstahl. pic.twitter.com/IGRFT11jA1 — Erick Erickson (@EWErickson) September 2, 2022 (Leni Riefenstahl was a German cinema star who aided in the production of Nazi propaganda.) The lighting and staging of Biden’s speech evoked pure dystopia — all I could see was the wicked High Chancellor Adam Sutler from the film V for Vendetta. No...

Newt Gingrich and Sen Tom Cotton join Mark Levin on Life, Liberty & Levin tonight, August 28 at 8pm eastern on Fox News.

Founded in 2006, the Institute for Strategic Dialogue is a London-based nonprofit with a stated purpose of "safeguarding human rights and reversing the rising tide of polarisation [sic], extremism, and disinformation worldwide." The group previously worked with the Obama administration, combating "violent extremism," and their website lists critical topics most vulnerable to fake news and hate speech, which include:Electoral, climate, and public health disinformationConspiracy networksFar-right extremismLGBTQIslamophobiaA recent blog posted to the ISD website discussed a "hate-riddled public health disinformation campaign" where social media users identified monkeypox as almost exclusively (if not entirely) spread by homosexual male relations and questioned how...
