    Robert Gates, who served as Secretary of Defense under Presidents Bush and Obama from 2006-2011, appeared on “Face the Nation” Sunday and told moderator Margaret Brennan that he thinks the biggest threat to the nation isn’t white supremacy, it’s not China or Russia or climate change—it’s the political polarization of our country. It’s not the first time we’ve been so divided, he says, but there’s something new about our latest rifts :MARGARET BRENNAN: What do you think the biggest threat to United States is right now?FORMER SEC.

    The home of the Republican state senator has been vandalized over his bill banning sex changes for minors — which the governor has signed into law. The vandalism took place at the home of Sen. Mike Kennedy on the evening of April 21. The vandal left messages in red spray paint across Sen. Kennedy’s garage, including “Fash,” presumably meaning Fascist, and “these trannies bash back.”

    A Democratic delegate to Congress appears to have threatened “Twitter Files” journalist Matt Taibbi with up to five years in prison for purportedly lying under oath when he testified before Congress last month. Stacey Plaskett (D-USVI) made the threat in an April 13 letter to Taibbi, accusing the Racket News journalist of contradicting his congressional testimony about Twitter in a subsequent interview with MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan, according to a copy of the letter obtained by The Intercept reporter Lee Fang. Hasan invited Taibbi onto his show after his March 9 testimony before the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of...

    An Orange County man has been sentenced to one year in prison for threatening the ultra-woke Merriam-Webster dictionary online. Jeremy Hanson, 35, was angrily responding to definition changes for words like “girl,” “woman,” and “female.”Prosecutors had argued that Hanson has a history of “threatening communications, nearly all of which were motivated by … biases based upon race, gender, gender identity, and/or sexual orientation.”Hanson also allegedly sent angry messages to the American Civil Liberties Union, Amnesty International, Land O’ Lakes Inc., Hasbro, a nonbinary rabbi and others.Prosecutors also argued that they wanted to make an example of him and use his...
  • Rep. Matt Gaetz Recounts Death Threat From Activist, Says It’s Time To “Reopen The Asylums”

    Rep. Matt Gaetz said this week that he received a death threat following remarks he made about the school shooting last month in Nashville, and argued that leftists are driving their own side to violence with end-times rhetoric. Speaking on Monday on his podcast “Firebrand,” the Fort Walton Beach Republican said, “Innocent people are forced to share a country with dangerous people,” and that violence is a natural consequence when Democrats repeatedly tell their followers that “Republicans are evil, and racist and fascist, and must be stopped at all costs.”

    BOGOTA, Colombia – Experts say a volcano responsible for causing one of the largest disasters in the Western Hemisphere is showing signs of increased activity, which has forced the Colombian government to issue evacuations in the potential impact zone. The Nevado del Ruiz volcano sits about 80 miles west of Bogotá, and according to Colombia’s Geological Survey, an earthquake swarm has increased to levels not seen since a disastrous eruption in the 1980s killed at least 25,000 people. Authorities have raised the alert level to orange – the second-highest on a four-stage scale. A recent update posted by the Global...

    Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen on Wednesday pushed back against a GOP congressman who voiced skepticism about the threat of climate change, suggesting the issue was being used by the Biden administration to secure funding and was not a serious concern. “Can you provide to me, or do you know any research on your own to justify this drastic climate change that we have to do today or the next four or five years this world’s going to come to an end?” Rep Jerry Carl (R-Ala.) asked Yellen at a hearing on the banking system.

    Richard Quest, senior international business correspondent at CNN, warned on Monday of the economic consequences of the judicial reform being promoted by the Israeli government. Speaking to Channel 12 News, Quest said, “Let’s be quite clear about this: If these measures go forward as planned, there will be an effect. It will be felt. You cannot tinker around, undermine the foundations of a country’s unwritten constitution, based on practice and history, and not expect to have a result. It’s as simple as that.” He said that the effect will not be immediate but rather take place over time. “Over the...

    Leftist Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, also known as AMLO, threatened the Republican Party during a press conference on Thursday for wanting to use the U.S. military to destroy the nation’s powerful multi-billion dollar drug cartels. Obrador’s remarks come as Republican lawmakers and top former officials, like former Attorney General William Barr, have called for using the U.S. military in recent weeks to put an end to the billions of dollars worth of drugs pouring into the U.S., which are responsible for tens of thousands of deaths per year. The cartels made $13 billion last year from human smuggling...
  • Our democracy’s greatest threat isn’t Trump — it’s the Electoral College

    A simplistic 18th century math formula, not the latest complex Big Tech algorithm, is the greatest growing threat to our democracy. This formula got scratched out using a quill pen in 1787. Then it was used in 1789 to elect George Washington as our first president. This enduring presidential algo is found in Article II, Section I, of the U.S. Constitution. The term “Electoral College” doesn’t appear there. But the basic math does. Each state has two senators. This equals two electoral votes, regardless of population. In addition, a state gets representatives in Congress based on population. Each representative equals...

    House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) said during a speech Monday that the national debt is the “greatest threat” to America’s future and called on President Joe Biden to negotiate with Republicans on the debt ceiling. McCarthy said during the press conference, addressing the looming debt ceiling deadline: Americans are getting hammered by higher prices. Today, nearly two-thirds of all Americans are living paycheck-to-paycheck, struggling to make ends meet. Meanwhile, China is infiltrating our culture, our farmland, and our skies because they see us as weak. This is not sustainable. But of all the dangers we face, the greatest threat to...

China responded to the military action threatening to “take further actions” and said it would be responding to “an obvious overreaction and a serious violation of international practice,” Associated Press reported.

    In a ruling this past June, the U.S. Supreme Court said the Constitution does not confer a right to abortion; and it said the authority to regulate abortion resides with “the people and their elected representatives” — with the states, in other words. But as state legislatures begin their sessions in this new year, U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland issued a warning on Monday: Any attempt by the states to ban or restrict abortion may be met with federal intervention of some kind, including lawsuits. “On the day Roe was overturned, I said the Justice Department would use every tool...

    Democracy, like the polar bears, the bald eagle and the 99-cent pizza slice, is threatened. We know that’s true because the media, the least democratic body outside of North Korea, tells us this all the time. And we know that it must be true because apart from its daily panics over some political, medical, environmental or economic crisis that will later turn out to be imaginary or overblown, the media has an unbroken track record of honesty and truth that almost equals that of Bill Clinton. So who better to warn us about the threat to democracy than an undemocratic...

    When Trump raised alarms about TikTok in 2020, he was criticized in the media. CNN actually ran a story declaring that the action set a “dangerous precedent for democracy.” Late-night comics also brutally mocked the 45th president, and Trump was also challenged in court. The concern over TikTok and its China-based owner ByteDance stems from the realities of Beijing’s legal system. China’s national security laws can force foreign and domestic firms operating inside its borders to share their data with the government, raising fears of industrial or personal espionage from apps like TikTok. ByteDance has denied that the Chinese communist...

    The World Health Organization and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced on Wednesday that measles is rapidly spreading in multiple regions across the world. They agencies blamed the resurgence of measles on a decrease in childhood vaccination during COVID-19 and less monitoring of the illness, Reuters reported. Measles is considered extremely contagious and only preventable among a population if there is a 95 percent vaccination rate. There were around 40 million children who did not get a measles vaccine in 2021 because of increased difficulties in accessing medical treatments during COVID, the WHO and the CDC said...
