Yesterday the World Health Organization officially declared Covid-19 a pandemic (like we didn’t already know this.) As well, President Trump addressed the nation, closing American borders to all flights from Europe and announcing some ways he intends to help the people of the United States financially. In unofficial terms, this is sh#t getting real. Things are going to get worse – possibly much worse – before they get better. Illness completely aside, this will cause financial problems that many folks will feel for years after the pandemic is over. The biggest question people are asking now is, “When?” When will...

Many of the proposals of those who want a disarmed society are founded in wishful thinking. Hypothetical examples, based on false assumptions about the nature of reality, are put forward as if they are fact. One of the most blatant and one-sided examples of this was recently published in the Los Angeles Times. The title of the piece is How many mass shootings might have been prevented by stronger gun laws?, by Rahul Mukherjee, on 26 February, 2020. The article lists five types of restrictive gun laws and considers how they might have stopped 167 mass killings over the last...

Will Flanders, research director for the Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty, contributed to the study.The Green New Deal — as championed by liberals such as U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez...

This is a question to all Trump supporters and conservatives. We are in the fight for our lives, the socialists and ‘Bernie Bros’ want the rest of us disarmed for their ‘revolution’. Those of us on the right need to band together in stopping the assault. The purpose here is to compile a list of the “Better” 2nd amendment freedom groups such a GOA or VCDL.

Soros wrote an op-ed for The New York Times Jan. 31, fretting that “there appears to be ‘an informal mutual assistance operation or agreement developing between Trump and Facebook’ in which Facebook will help President Trump to get re-elected and Mr. Trump will, in turn, defend Facebook against attacks from regulators and the media.’” [Emphasis added.] His solution: Zuckerberg and Facebook Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg “should not be left in control of Facebook.” [Emphasis added.]

A starved, emaciated lurcher was found by Animal Welfare officers in Blythe, Northumberland. The pup was callously dropped on the street where it was found and had apparently been left for dead. The condition of the poor pooch was appalling: almost literally skin and bones, dried out and an easily-visible ribcage, nearly no hair, and weighing 24 lbs (10,88 kgs), which is half the weight she should weigh. The dog which was named Tiggy by Berwick Animal Rescue Kennels (B-A-R-K for short), who took her in and took care of her, might as well been called Twiggy at the time....

But what doctors can’t show is your baby’s coloring, the color of their eyes, and how much hair they’ll have. When baby Bence was born at a hospital in Hungary, he left his parents shocked and doctors scratching their heads.
