The victim stepped out of his Uber on Clark Street, just south of Wrigley Field, when a group of two men and two women started chatting him up around 1:30 a.m., according to initial information. As the man walked home, his new friends tagged along, seeming quite friendly at first.

The Population Council, the eugenics organization credited with bringing the abortion pill (RU-486) to the United States, turns 65 this month — but it is nothing to celebrate. In 1952, John D. Rockefeller III founded the Population Council and served as the organization’s first president. According to the Rockefeller Foundation, the Population Council, Inc., was incorporated following Rockefeller’s Conference on Population Problems, “…to stimulate, encourage, promote, conduct and support significant activities in the broad field of population.” Like its founder, the Population Council’s other members were concerned about population issues — and, like other population organizations such as Planned Parenthood,...

The gunman approached the 21-year-old victim inside the residential building on First Avenue near East 124th Street, part of NYCHA’s Wagner Houses in East Harlem, around 11:20 p.m. May 28, cops said as they released video of the violent crime late Wednesday. The suspect, seen with a black face mask and wired headphones dangling from his ears, held a gun in one hand and appeared to grab the victim’s throat with the other, according to...

How do you respond to those who say that taking mifepristone is “safer than taking Tylenol?” Considered in terms of deaths per dose, it simply isn’t so. What you have here is a not-so-clever statistical sleight of hand. Advocates try to get you to compare the number of deaths from a relatively lightly used product with one that is used billions of times by people every year. We are told that about 150 American die from Tylenol use every year, usually by overdose or simply taking too much over an extended period of time. At the same time, the FDA...

For several years, Live Action News has researched and published the facts regarding the abortion pill along with the web of those who fund the manufacturing of the abortion pill as well as its clinical trials and studies. What has been uncovered has been nothing short of shocking: an incestuous funding trail from the investors in U.S. abortion pill manufacturers Danco Laboratories and GenBioPro, whose own dollars have been funneled to various groups behind clinical trials and studies of the abortion pill and its purported safety and effectiveness. Such an arrangement appears to be a possible conflict of interest, which...

CNN — Federal election regulators fined Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee earlier this month for not properly disclosing the money they spent on controversial opposition research that led to the infamous Trump-Russia dossier. The DNC was fined $105,000 and the Clinton campaign was fined $8,000, according to a letter sent by the Federal Election Commission to a conservative group that requested an inquiry. The FEC concluded that the Clinton campaign and DNC misreported the money that funded the dossier, masking it as “legal services” and “legal and compliance consulting” instead of opposition research. A lawyer...

Assembly Member Emily Gallagher (D-Brooklyn) hates cars — except her own. The upstate-transplant socialist and “safe streets” lover has notched at least 46 (!!!) tickets these past 2½ years, for a total of more than $4,000. Turns out the white Buick of this tatted tribune of the people was caught illegally blocking fire hydrants.. Power to the workers! Unless their building’s on fire, in which case: Screw ’em. Far worse, the Rochester-reared revolutionary’s car has ripped through at least one red light — in The Bronx, a borough that’s almost 90% people of color. Guess black lives DON’T matter when...

ARTICLE: Interview with Yana Zinkevich, founder of "Hospitallers" Volunteer Medical Service Yana Zinkevich, founder of "Hospitallers" volunteer medical service: "Our unit has evacuated 23,000 wounded throughout war" Yana is a legend of this war. And this is no exaggeration. Perhaps even this word is not enough to convey the depth of what Yana has done for the country and continues to do for our Victory. Talking and remembering those who went to war from Maidan as children, we noted with great sadness that there are very few of them left. And Yana is one of them. The 10 years of...

Discover the unbelievable bravery of Franz Hasel, a German soldier who risked his life to defy the Nazis during WWII. On a mild Saturday in 1939, a letter arrived at a German farmhouse that changed the family’s world. It was a summons from the draft board for the 40-year-old Franz Hasel to attend the recruitment office in Frankfurt the following Monday. Because he was a pacifist, Hasel was assigned as a private to the Pioneer Company 699, which built roads, bridges and fortifications at the front lines. But Hasel’s story is truly unbelievable. Although he wore the uniform, he disagreed...

Trump was stupid. He should have prosecuted Hillary (unauthorized possession of classified documents on her computer), Strzok and Page (using the Government--FBI--to influence an election, and insurrection), Clapper (perjury, lying under oath to Congress, Comey (unauthorized leaks to the MSM). When campaigning in 2016, Trump hinted at 'locking her up". After the election, when that was chanted at rallies, he would say, "No, she has been through enough". The bottom line is this,,,, he was MUCH, MUCH too nice.

Update: For those who remember, there is news regarding Fulks and Basham. They murdered my sister Alice Donovan from South Carolina,, a girl from West Virginia named Samantha, attempted to kill a policè officer, attempted to carjack a teenager, stole guns, checkbooks, credit cards and much more.
