Well, this is what happens when, as a Republican, you protect one of Congress' most notorious Democratic liars while voting against conservative interests in important spots: You get primaried -- and by someone with money to spend. Oklahoma Rep. Tom Cole, chair of the House Appropriations Committee, is facing several primary challengers -- but one sticks out, according to the Oklahoma Voice: Paul L. Bondar, which the outlet called "a newcomer with deep pockets who recently moved into the state."

MSNBC anchor Rachel Maddow said the jury should be thanked and protected during her network’s coverage of former President Donald Trump being found guilty on all counts in a unanimous decision by a Manhattan jury in his business record trial. Maddow said, “Listen, this is unanimous on all counts. This is a definitive and this is an irreversible verdict. He can appeal. I’m sure he will appeal. But this is everything that the prosecution asked for, from a jury that by all counts took this thing very, very seriously. We counted the deliberation hours down here. The test here for...

The Republic of Colombia announced Wednesday in a press release that they designated the wreckage of the San Jose galleon as a “Protected Archaeological Area.“ The Colombian government called the San Jose wreckage “one of the most important of the colonial period in America” and announced they were also launching a multiphase research project around the ship, the press release reads. The San Jose, a ship belonging to the Spanish crown, was sunk by the British navy in 1708 with only a few of its 600-strong crew surviving the incident, CBS News reported. The ship was reportedly believed to be...

Gateway Pundit ^ | May 13, 2024 | Staff
A week ago, news broke that the US State Department knew COVID was leaked from the Wuhan laboratory, and the Communist Chinese leaders knew this and hid this from the global community. The US State Department knew in July 2020 that Xi Jinping was hiding this from the global community. Documents released by the Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic prove that the State Department knew this but hid this from President Trump, the American people, and the global community. This past week, The Gateway Pundit reached out to former Trump insiders for more information. The officials were not able...

A student who defended the American flag at a North Carolina campus Tuesday from an anti-Israel mob, said the protesters would have had to yank the flag from him over his "dead body." Anti-Israel protesters targeted the American flag on The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill's quad — which had been flying at half-mast after four Charlotte officers were killed in the line of duty. At one point, they replaced it with a Palestinian flag – enraging students and inspiring members from the Pi Kappa Phi fraternity to take action. "I don't understand how people can act like...

New document in the Zanchetta case complicate the Church's case The Vatican was aware of the allegations against the ex-bishop before giving him a position, they say, and he is accused of abuse and commercial mismanagement with the Pope's "endorsement". Internal Church documents show that Church authorities, including Pope Francis, were aware of allegations of sexual abuse and economic mismanagement against the now ex-Bishop of Oran, Gustavo Zanchetta, before giving him a high position in the Vatican and transferring him to Rome.

On March 29, 2024, United States District Judge Sam A. Lindsay, for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas, ordered a preliminary injunction, stopping the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) from enforcing the final rule as it applies to pistol braces and NRA members. Once Joe Biden was elected President, the ATF radically changed course, reversed a dozen years of previous administrative measures, and declared once legal pistol braces as re-defined “short-barreled rifles. The “final rule” claimed to be implementing measures approved by Congress in the 1934 National Firearms Act. The court found the ATF had gone to...

According to New York state law, squatters are “classified as tenants and receive temporary rights as such” after occupying a property for 30 days. New York State law dictates that if an owner wants to reclaim property from a squatter after 30 days, they must prove a right to the property and proceed with legal eviction proceedings. The Landas are taking Flores to landlord-tenant court to evict him. But it’s been a long process. ABC 7 reported that the couple already had five hearings in civil court but the process has been repeatedly delayed.

This is sounds like gaslighting by the U.S. Mint while they look to make a tidy little profit too. Maybe the Mint ought to just call it the Lon Horiuchi federal marksmanship award?!? Here’s the description: Bronze miniature replica of the Congressional Gold Medal honoring the U.S. Capitol Police and those who protected the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. 1.5 inches in diameter.

Mexican drug cartels have set up shop on tribal reservations in her state because they know the federal government has jurisdiction over those lands, and that the Biden administration is "letting it happen."

"I've got nine Native American tribes, and the cartels are set up on our tribal grounds.

According to an exclusive Fox News Digital report, a key prosecutor on Special Counsel Jack Smith’s current team protected the Clinton Foundation from federal investigation. According to the report of former Special Counsel John Durham, Ray Hulser, formerly the head of the Department of Justice’s Public Integrity Section (PIN), is the DOJ official who “declined prosecution” of the Clintons in 2016. The Durham report revealed that even after three different FBI field offices opened investigations into the Clinton Foundation, Hulser shut down the probes on behalf of the PIN. However, Hulser claimed during a 2016 interview with Durham that his...
 

Trump asks federal appeals court to toss indictment accusing him of plotting to overturn the 2020 election in late-night filing claiming he was protected under presidential immunity

Daily Mail ^ | 12/24/23 | James Gordon
Donald Trump demanded an appeals court in Washington dismiss a federal indictment accusing him of conspiring to overturn the 2020 election, in his latest attempt to avoid prosecution. The former president's lawyers made a late-night court filing Saturday to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, claiming he is immune to charges because they stem from actions he took while serving in the White House. It is the latest development in an ongoing and pivotal legal dispute between Trump and special counsel Jack Smith over election interference. The 77-year-old Republican argued the case should be dismissed...

What are the odds that pedophiles will be a protected class in California by 2025? Let me put it this way, I wouldn’t bet against it. But one thing at a time. Drug users are first in line. Behind Islamic terrorists, drag queens and just ahead of people who vandalize classical art while screaming that the planet is about to explode. California employees will soon officially have protections from discrimination based on their use of cannabis or marijuana while off the clock and away from the workplace. The new protections come from an amendment to California’s Fair Employment and Housing...

Live Action News ^ | December 7, 2023 | Cassy Fiano-Chesser
A Wisconsin judge has ruled that an 1849 law does not actually protect preborn children from abortion, setting up a potential challenge in the state Supreme Court. Dane County Circuit Judge Diane Schlipper ruled that the 174-year-old law applies to feticide (an act of homicide against a fetus committed by someone other than the child’s mother), but not abortion (initiated by the child’s mother). The statute is worded: Any person, other than the mother, who intentionally destroys the life of an unborn child is guilty of a Class H felony. Yet Schlipper said that this wording referred to someone attacking...
