During an appearance on this week’s “Fox News Sunday broadcast,” Sen. James Lankford (R-OK) pushed back against critics of his efforts to secure a deal on a border security package. The Oklahoma Senator said the language of the bill had not been finalized and attributed speculation to “Internet rumors.” “The challenge that Senator Cruz has and a bunch of other folks is they’re so waiting to be able to read the bill on this and this has been our great challenge of being able to fight through the final words to be able to get the bill text out so...

Former Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan (R) targets both major parties on foreign policy in a new ad amid rumors he could mount a third-party White House bid. “Our allies question whether they should still trust us, and our enemies question whether they should still fear us,” the former governor says in one clip in the ad, posted by Hogan’s PAC, An America United. The video takes aim at Republicans who want to pull back on funding for Ukraine amid Kyiv’s war with Russia, and knocks progressives who are against U.S. support for Israel after Hamas attacked last month. Hogan is...

Jessica Watkins, an American political prisoner who was sentenced to 8½ years in federal prison for protesting the stolen election at the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, is being harassed and mentally tortured by correctional officers in the female maximum security jail of the DC Central Detention Facility, to the point where transgender Oath Keeper and military veteran is inflicting self-harm. During the Capitol riot, Watkins did not threaten anyone, did not vandalize anything, encouraged others not to vandalize, spoke with several police officers inside the Capitol, and followed their orders. Wicked U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta sentenced Watkins’...

Most salvage yards will NOT accept electric vehicles. The media is not reporting on many negative EV concepts having been compromised by the present administration and big money. This is huge news and the media is turning a blind eye. Where are they going to put these cars/batteries when they wear out. Huh???

Among the many plot lines in the Dianne Feinstein saga is Gov. Gavin Newsom's pledge to appoint a Black woman to replace the 89-year-old should a vacancy arise before her term expires in January 2025. He made that promise during his 2021 anti-recall campaign, and a new article from the Associated Press' Michael R. Blood conveys the extent to which the governor may have boxed himself in. While many Black Democrats expect the governor to follow through on his pledge, the two candidates who seemed the most likely at the time of the pledge — Reps. Barbara Lee and Karen...

@paulsperry_ DEVELOPING: The Bushes are running against Trump through "proxy" candidate DeSantis, according to GOP insiders in Texas and Florida. The entire "Bush machine" is behind his campaign, even helping run it

Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley have been attacked by a number of Trump loyalists for failing to comment on rumors the former president will be arrested on Tuesday. MAGA Republicans have criticized DeSantis and Haley for not speaking out against the Manhattan DA's office for what they claim is a weaponization of the justice system. DeSantis is widely rumored to be preparing to run against Trump for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination. Haley was the first to enter the race after Trump. Jason Miller, a Trump adviser and the former CEO of right-wing free speech app Gettr noted a 'radio...

Investigative reporter John Cardillo hears that Senator John Fetterman is essentially brain-dead. If so, there is a reason for Democrats to hide it. Until the next special election, he remains as senator. It wouldn’t surprise anyone if true, and it needs an immediate investigation. With HIPAA laws, they could keep it secret for a long time. As Mr. Cardillo said, “18 hours later and still no comment from PA Dems or Senate Dems on whether or not a sitting United States Senator is able to continue on in office.” While Mr. Cardillo believes a special election would have to be...

...Speculation was rampant on Friday night after Twitter user @MMtTreasures shared a video taken from a window in Billings that was said to show "a jet go by so fast and then [an] explosion in the sky." The video, which appears to show a jet contrail in the sky above a residential neighborhood, includes a brief and silent flash of light that is claimed to be an explosion.... A short time later, the City of Billings said on Twitter that there had been no "massive explosion" in the area.... Twitter user @Chase7601 seemingly attempted to stoke the flames of conspiracy...

(More on an earlier post) It began with a rumor. Sir Maejor, an ethnically black actor and model with a fair complexion due to albinism, tweeted Monday that “I am being told that Tyre Nichols was in a relationship with and worked at a Memphis @FedEx with #MemphisPolice Demetrius Halys’s ex-girlfriend & baby mama.” Not only that, but “After the beating Officer Halys took a pictures of #TyreNichols face and sent it to his babymama.” The following day, Maejor added a disclaimer in all caps: “THIS IS MERELY SPECULATIONS AND OR A RUMOR AT THIS POINT — THIS INFORMATION HAS...

Poetic Justice may be in the nation’s future, as the name of Republican Kari Lake emerges in discussions about potential running mates for President Donald J. Trump to be on the presidential ticket for the 2024 general election. Trump is a Populist-Nationalist and the definitive leader of the America First movement; he faces a bold Globalist agenda that has its grasp on power and wealth and are unafraid of showing its corrupt dominance over the ‘free’ people of the nation. So he will need a fearless and bold partner to stand with him.

The good news just keeps coming. Cuomo, Lemon etc. President Trump is still laughing at these jokers.

Social media is abuzz with claims of a coup in China, but the credibility of these claims is doubtful, claim experts. Speculations that Chinese President Xi Jinping had lost control ran wild on the internet after he was found missing from the public eye following his return from SCO summit in Uzbekistan. With no official confirmation from the Chinese Communist Party or the state media and with all these updates from anonymous users, who are neither verified nor credible, experts are confident these rumours are just rumours and false speculations. So, here’s what we know so far: Is Xi Jinping...

LYSYCHANSK, Ukraine (Tribune News Service) — The first shell was the worst, mostly because it came as a surprise. But then the soldiers thought it was OK to get up, dust themselves off. That's when the second one landed, and it was the worst. The third one is when they understood they were being hunted and somehow that shelling was now the worst. Their commander, a breezily confident 31-year-old named Levan, gathered his squad and waited for the bang of outgoing artillery. He made a dash around the corner to the next block, taking cover beneath the trees before sprinting...

White House Press Secretary wouldn’t directly confirm that Biden was selecting Vice President Kamala Harris to fill the Supreme Court vacancy soon-to-be-left by retiring Justice Stephen Breyer.But what Psaki did is narrow down the field to one that would include Kamala Harris. Watch:https://rumble.com/vtck10-peter-doocy-grills-psaki-on-harris-as-next-scotus-pick.html “When you were asked about the Vice President, possibly being selected as a Supreme Court nominee, you say you’re not going to speak to any considerations. Does that means she is being considered?” Fox News’s Peter Doocy asked.Psaki declined to address the question, because she said the retirement “hasn’t been announced.”She did, however, confirm that he would...

Gizzi writes that a “secretary of one of the most powerful Vatican Cardinals” told him straightfowardly: “Pope Francis is dying.” Furthermore, Gizzi asserts that sources inside the Vatican do not expect Francis (Jorge Bergoglio) to see the end of next year, 2022, and are in “pre-Conclave mode”. Without more details, one can only speculate as to what exactly the situation is, but apparently Francis is said to be terminally ill and not expected to live another 13 months for that reason. A diagnosis has not been revealed or rumored, but colon cancer would be a possibility, considering Bergoglio’s colon surgery...

#PoopyPantsBiden #1 on Twitter, and "Let's Go Brandon" is #1 in Hip Hop. Are people starting to get the word?

(Posting as vanity as it is not an official news source.) The word around Rome is that Biden’s meeting with the Pope was unusually long because Biden had a bit of an “bathroom accident” at the Vatican & it had to be addressed prior to him leaving. I know we joke often about this, but this is the actual rumor going around Rome now. Its going around in Switzerland too, so perhaps the Swiss Guard is leaking. They said he soiled his pants.

Mrs. Chandler received a panicky email from her conspiracy-minded friend. Her friend said that Fox News told her we are going to experience devastating supermarket shortages lasting for two years. I suspect that this could be Fox News creating fear to attract viewers. I am now being pressured to purchase a crapload of non-perishables.
