Free Republic

A conservative political action committee billed as Fix Jersey Now is looking to do what Republicans have long been loathe to do: Beat the left at its own ballot game. The PAC, affiliated with New Jersey conservative icon Dominick “Mick” Spadea, aims to fund and implement a ballot-gathering initiative to bring back the GOP from the brink of oblivion in the Democrat-dominated Garden State. Third-party collection of ballots has been part of the Democrats’ blueprint to electoral success. Every so often they get caught breaking the law. “We need your support to get boots on the ground,” the organization urges...

A retired merchant marine suspected of using his small plane to stalk a woman for more than four years in Upstate New York denied knowing the victim Tuesday as he was arrested for the third time in a single week for allegedly tormenting her. "I don’t know her, she’s crazy," Michael Arnold, 65, said of 42-year-old Cassie Wilusz on his way into Saratoga Town Court. He said he'd only eaten at her restaurant once and didn't return after coming down with food poisoning. But Wilusz, who owns Revolution Cafe in the small village of Schuylerville, shared videos that allegedly show...

For many years, Pastor Charles Henrickson has posted a good Scriptural sermon here on FR. Please pray for him. He has a health challenge; that's all I can say. Some laudable things about Pastor Henrickson: - he has posted a very good Confessional Lutheran sermon here every week for a long time - he uses his real name - he's openly being a member of Free Republic when so many, even in a conservative church body, would look down upon him for that. I don't know any other MO Synod pastor who does this, and I know quite a few....

The ex-wife of the octogenarian charged with shooting Ralph Yarl said he was prone to violence during their troubled 14-year marriage – and that it “doesn’t surprise” her that he pulled a gun on the teenage boy when the child mistakenly showed up at his address. Mary Clayton, 81, who was married to Andrew Lester when she was young, has not spoken to him in decades and didn’t even recognize him when he appeared in the news for allegedly shooting Yarl, who had shown up at his address instead of one a block over to pick up his siblings, The...

A Kentucky man is accused of using a cattle prod on his own children. Deputies said he did it to “discipline” them, but now defendant Anthony L. Jones, 32, faces four counts of criminal abuse in the third degree of a child 12 or under, and one count of criminal abuse in the third degree. “The perpetrator used an electric cattle prod multiple times on his two children for discipline,” deputies wrote in documents. “Both children were given a forensic interview at the CVAC center and both confirmed this. The perp used the cattle prod to shock the victims and...

President Trump has called on supporters to protest his expected arrest next week by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg on bogus charges arising out of the alleged 2016 Stormy Daniels hush money arrangement. Several so-called influencers are warning supporters to stay home to avoid being entrapped by the feds into another January 6 riot. As one of the most experienced conservative street activists who was active in our Nation’s Capital for over a decade, I want to offer my advice on whether to go out and protest (yes) and how to do it. First, some background. I was active in...

Hello, everyone. This post is for Metmom who cannot post at this time due to the snow and winds having toppled a pole with power transformer near her driveway. She and husband cannot get off their property due to the lines being across their driveway. Her internet is down, to boot, of course. There is a widespread power outage in her area, and there's no idea how long it's going to take to get things going. Metmom is asking for a quick fix to this problem, as we can all understand. It's ok for a while, then it gets to...

The report said he drove back to the resort,...

For several months I had been following my adaptation of Dr Zelenko's prophylaxis protocol. I had NOT been vaccinated and shall not be.This past Tuesday (22 March) I came down with the Fauci Flu. I awoke having flu-like symptoms; headache, malaise, joint ache, & runny nose. Uncomfortable but not miserable, and my temperature was about 1-1/2 degrees F over my morning norm so I went to the nearest Urgent Care. They tested me and declared me positive for Omicron so I came home and took my first dose of Dr Zelenko's treatment protocol. Then I went back to bed and...

Good evening everyone. I haven't been here in a while because I was infected with Covid-19 last month. I had been ill since around Christmas time last year, but every test I took came back negative. I got progressively worse until, finally, on Jan 31st/Feb 1st I tested positive for Covid-19. I tried to ride it out the rest of that week but couldn't and I checked myself into the local hospital on Saturday the 6th of Feb. They admitted me and I spent the next six days being treated. I got the 5 day Remdesivir treatment and was also...

Just a query to those more knowledgeable and savvy, about church denominations. Actually, I mean ANY division of organized Christian religion. I am frustrated by so many churches now, with all the nonsense of the last 2 years. Paying homage to BLM and homos and bowing down to every COVID decree. Everyone says what was our church, Lutheran Church - MO Synod (LCMS), is good for being true. However, after the riots started I saw a bit too much virtue-signaling. The only thing I can say was the website did not seem to specify blacks and BLM, but the statement...
