    ...Noah already highlighted the Harvard/Harris poll showing a slight majority of younger Americans siding with Hamas, but I wanted to flag another eye-opening finding in the survey: A statistically significant group of them who describe the October 7 attacks as “genocidal” nonetheless support them. Specifically, when asked, “Do you think that the attacks on Jews were genocidal in nature or not genocidal?” 62 percent of respondents aged 18 to 24 said yes. However, when asked, “Do you think the Hamas killing of 1200 Israeli civilians in Israel can be justified by the grievances of Palestinians or is it not justified?”...

The firm envisions the car driving itself back to the showroom – or to a scrapyard if the value of the car is low. But a security expert warns that the proposed system could instead be used to steal cars remotely. The patent, which was...

    They’re not revolutionaries if they’ve had the path of least resistance cleared for them and allowed to set up shop where they have. They were “cleared in hot” and it’s been burning ever since. They are always going to have their patented delusions of grandeur that they’re something really special. They think way too much of themselves and they need to come to that realization. These are still “the children”, who’ve been under the impression since they could walk, that they are the world and future, god’s gift to man and the genius offspring of the least appreciative generation of...

    How many times have you heard this: "It's time..." Well, it IS time for a change and... I really do believe that the Michigan triumvirate of Whitmer (D), Nessel (D) and Benson (D) conspired, coordinated and engaged in systemic election fraud with the cooperation of local (D) election officials and individuals who took it upon themselves to vote illegally. Not only that, they were aware of the plan's involvement of foreign bad actors and communist governments well in advance of the COVID-19 pandemic's appearance on the global stage of events. Supported by members of the Michigan (D) legisla- ture, these...

    DETROIT – One of the great tragedies of COVID-19 is the disproportionate impact it’s had on the Black or African American community. According to state officials, despite being only 14% of Michigan’s population, Black people make up 30% of all coronavirus cases and 40% of COVID-19 related deaths. Gov. Gretchen Whitmer said she believes those numbers are because of uneven health care delivery and signed an Executive Directive to develop rules to require implicit bias training for health professionals to address racial disparities. The governor’s task force said people of color suffer in medical settings from the unconscious bias by...

  • Okay Hand Gesture- Racist Hand Signs

    Note: For reasons explained below, particular caution must be used when evaluating this symbol. The “okay” hand gesture—in which the thumb and index finger touch while the other fingers of the hand are held outstretched—is an obvious and ancient gesture that has arisen in many cultures over the years with different meanings. Today, in a usage that dates to at least as early as 17th century Great Britain, it most commonly signals understanding, consent, approval or well-being. Since the early 1800s, the gesture increasingly became associated with the word “okay” and its abbreviation “ok.” In 2017, the “okay” hand gesture...

    Some Michigan communities are already prohibiting adult-use marijuana businesses, a little more than a week after voters in the state approved legalization of recreational cannabis. According to various newspaper reports, Niles City in southwestern Michigan and Pinckney village in the southeastern part of the state have decided to opt out, at least for now. St. Joseph in southwestern Michigan is expected to do the same. Meanwhile, the Detroit Free Press reported Tuesday that officials at colleges across the state say marijuana won’t be allowed on campuses. That’s because they don’t want to jeopardize federal funding since marijuana is still illegal...

    Dear news media outlet stations and networks, The time is at hand. The majority of Americans must humor you and your impotence. You have given your profession(s) have a bad name and blaming the competition, however adversarial, only exacerbates the already dire situation. You've had your believers but those numbers are dwindling and that is a most welcome sign of America's becoming great again. Rev. Jim Jones and Marshall Applewhite had their believers too, and we know what happened there. However, some were able to break free and stage an escape from the madness and that's pretty much the same...

    Today, GM unveiled the first image of its upcoming autonomous fourth-generation Bolt EV-based vehicle – the “first without a steering wheel or pedal.” The automaker also says that it filed a petition asking the DOT permission to deploy the vehicle as soon as next year. The move represents an accelerated self-driving timeline for the company, which could potentially leapfrog most other companies working on the technology since the most common timeline is a commercial launch in 2020-2022. The vehicle would represent the next generation of Cruise AV autonomous car based on the Bolt EV. In June, GM announced the completion...

    Macomb County’s Selfridge Air National Guard base has lost its bid to house a fleet of next-generation warplanes. Selfridge was one of five U.S. bases competing to host the new F-35 fighter jets. But the Air Force announced Thursday it chose bases in Wisconsin and Alabama as winners in this round. A bipartisan group of Michigan political leaders lobbied hard in Washington to land the F-35 and boost Selfridge’s long-term prospects. Despite this setback, those leaders now say Selfridge proved itself a top contender for future opportunities. “Although we are disappointed Selfridge was not selected to house the F-35 fighter...
