So what’s up? A pangolin gets mated with a bat gets mated with a furin cleavage site of a human being? How does that happen? It’s not probable,” David Asher, who worked for the department during the Trump administration, said on Fox News’s “The Story.”

Something is clearly wrong with Joe Biden. While speaking at a roundtable hurricane briefing from FEMA, Biden began by pushing talking points about how he "insists on nothing less than readiness" and that he plans to double the money the U.S. government will spend to help communities prepare for extreme weather events. When he attempted to give his thoughts at the FEMA meeting, that's when things got a little jumbled. “But, uh, there’s, you know, there’s to be, you know, beginning, uh, this effort for 2021 is, uh…” Biden stumbled. "I think we've learned a few lessons from last year,...

The U.S. Supreme Court issued a unanimous decision on Monday that gives new life into a lawsuit Guam brought against the United States over a massive waste site leaking toxic chemicals into the Pacific Ocean. Guam closed the Ordot Landfill in 2011 as part of a $160 million settlement with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

The ruling, written by Justice...

Kennedy pressed Walensky to look into “other possibilities” after he declared that most coronaviruses are of “animal origin.” [video] This comes after a Chinese professor with strong ties to China’s Communist government proclaimed that COVID-19 pandemic was a biological weapon created by China.

Numerous staff of the New York Times, it’s been discovered, have previously working for the Chinese Communist Party’s state-run media outlet China Daily. One of them, the publication’s current Director of Cinematography, also admitted to “working for the Communist Party of China” while another boasted of being a “China apologist”. The news comes as the New York Times breathlessly backs big corporates opposed to Georgia’s new voting laws. The New York Times, however, seems less concerned with employing genocidal Chinese Communist Party apparatchiks. Jonah Kessel – the current Director of Cinematography at The New York Times – served as the...

Welcome to the weekend. You currently sober drunk host with you again. I worked myself to exhaustion Friday night and crashed in bed rather than continue with normal activities including completion of the Newsdump Friday post. I had to draw the line. This week Charlotte Bennett said that Andrew Cuomo told her that he was "tired" and "lonely" and then went on to make other comments indicating his sexual intentions. "Tired" is not a good place to be and I made the right decision I apologize for the inconvenience to you all who read my blog and enjoy it and...

Boehner reportedly went off-script in recording his memoir saying, “Oh, and Ted Cruz, go (expletive) yourself.” ... Cruz began by joking that Boehner’s suggestion was, in fact, not a request he could fulfill. “You know yesterday, John Boehner made some news,” he said. “He suggested that I do something that was anatomically impossible.”

Forbes is reporting that the House version of a $1.9 trillion COVID relief package contains “an extra perk for federal workers” that involves paid time off to stay at home with children not taking part in in-classroom instruction. The “perk” tucked inside a bill dubbed the “American Rescue Plan Act of 2021,” is defined by critics as “a personal bailout for bureaucrats.” While most of us wait for a one-time $1,400 stimulus payment as we struggle with employment and tending to kids which we now teach from home, federal workers dealing with the same conditions will be privy to a...

That is the greatest threat to terror in America: domestic terror.” The President continued by alleging there are certain groups of people helping white supremacy spread in America. “You see what’s happening — and the studies that are beginning to be done … about the impact of former military, former police officers, on the growth of white supremacy in some of these groups,” he said.
