So, who is Governor Brian Kemp and why would he choose a globalist like Kelly Loeffler? Georgians want to know - and so do I Georgia Governor Brian Kemp is poised to select Kelly Loeffler to replace Georgia’s retiring Republican Senator Johnny Isakson. Kemp’s choice has provoked vehement opposition from conservative Georgians and the White House. Why is Kemp’s choice so controversial?

Justice Department Issues Business Review Letter to the GSMA Related to Innovative eSIMs Standard for Mobile Devices The Department of Justice’s Antitrust Division announced today that it completed a nearly two-year long investigation into the standard-setting activities of the GSM Association (GSMA), a trade association for mobile network operators.

TORONTO -- Three motorcyclists received jail sentences for dangerous driving and two-year driving bans after using a head-mounted camera to record themselves performing high-speed stunts. Sussex Police in the U.K. said they’d been looking into reports of dangerous driving and a collision since April. They eventually tracked down motorcyclist Thomas Ettridge and his head-mounted GoPro camera. Police seized his footage, which contained a number of potentially “shocking” disastrous motorcycle stunts, Sussex police said in a written statement. These included one of the motorcyclists popping a wheelie at nearly 130 km/h in a 60 km/h zone.

Adam Schiff is helping the very person he wants to destroy, President Trump, with such a misguided and failed mission Since the beginning of the Ringside Politics TV and radio shows, we have enjoyed an annual Thanksgiving tradition of awarding our “Turkey of the Year” to recognize individuals who distinguished themselves in a particularly foolish way. It seems appropriate since turkeys are commonly regarded as one of the most dim-witted animals on the planet.

he L.A. Fire Department was dispatched to the luxury ship dubbed the “Norwegian Joy” following an initial call to first responders at 5:10 a.m., when the boat had not yet arrived to the port, according to the department.

Last week, four people were hospitalized and two others were evaluated by paramedics following another report of illnesses aboard the same ship. It...

Joe Biden munches wife Jill's finger at Iowa campaign stop

As beloved as they were, Lincoln and Reagan are long gone. But President Trump—the last man standing—is still here fighting to put America and its people first If Ronald Reagan were running in the 2020 presidential election, he’d be swiftly elected, then more than swiftly, impeached. Ditto for Abraham Lincoln, other worthy leaders and anyone—or any thing—standing in the Democrats’ way.

Now that he’s leading in the polls in Iowa and New Hampshire Democratic presidential contender South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg is reported to be mulling over possible running mates. Rumored front runner is former National Football League quarterback Colin Kaepernick. “Kaepernick is a man of unrivaled courage,” Buttigieg said. “His willingness to kneel while thousands of others stood for the National Anthem was beyond brave. It cost him his job and millions of dollars. That’s a far higher price than any other protester has paid. I think voters who believe in justice would relish the opportunity to elect him as...

CUBA is the most sustainably developed country in the world, according to a new report launched today. The socialist island outperforms advanced capitalist countries including Britain and the United States, which has subjected Cuba to a punitive six-decades-long economic blockade. The Sustainable Development Index (SDI), designed by anthropologist and author Dr Jason Hickel, calculates its results by dividing a nation’s “human development” score, obtained by looking at statistics on life expectancy, health and education, by its “ecological overshoot,” the extent to which the per capita carbon footprint exceeds Earth’s natural limits.

The United Nations Works and Relief Agency for Palestinian Refugees (UNWRA) is an anti-Israel organization that is fully captured by its clientele, Palestinian ”refugees” – most of whom have never set foot in Israel and who are one to four generations removed from anyone who lived there, the world’s only hereditary refugee population. UNRWA exists to facilitate the continued existence of a populace that can be used to bludgeon Israel, rather than resettle them in places they and their descendants can call home – like every other group of people displaced from their homes by war – such as the...

“‘And He shall proclaim justice to the Gentiles’” (Matthew 12:18). Contrary to Jewish thinking and expectations, the Messiah would be the Redeemer for all nationalities, not just the Jews. In fact, the Jews were to be the ones to proclaim God’s grace to the rest of the world. God told Abraham, “In you all the families of the earth will be blessed” (Gen. 12:3). It is therefore rather ironic that the Jews would resist the concept that God’s good news was for all peoples. The reality that Jesus’ message would be for all mankind was readily apparent early in His...

Arutz Sheva spoke with Rabbi Pinchas Goldschmidt, President of the Conference of European Rabbis (CER), at a gathering of its Standing Committee in Geneva, Switzerland. How more challenging and scary has being a Jew in Europe become? "It's very challenging, as an individual and as a community." You're referring to fears of anti-Semitism? "Yes. We witnessed an attack on Yom Kippur in eastern Germany, not ISIS - Neo-Nazis. In the last years, no Jews were killed by neo-Nazis in Europe. It's a whole new phenomenon." "We have problems today from the left and the right and the center. This is...

And they should knowThere’s so much out there that I occasionally lose track of some of my favorites, like Daniel Greenfield. This is his latest from Frontpage Magazine: WASHINGTON POST: AMERICANS BELIEVING THE MEDIA IS A “PATRIOTIC”* DUTY: Margaret Sullivan has been melting down for a while. But this meltdown, as the public backs further away from impeachment, is truly glorious.“I don’t know what to believe’ is an unpatriotic cop-out. Do better, Americans.” – Washington PostWe’re in Bertolt Brecht territory here. Time to replace the people with a people the media approve of. Open borders for everyone.More from Sullivan:If every...
