Before this harebrained and reckless administration is history, the nation will have cause to celebrate the public servants derided by Trumpists as the supposed “deep state.” The term itself is propaganda, intended to cast a sinister light upon men and women whom Trump and his minions find annoyingly knowledgeable and experienced. They are not participants in any kind of dark conspiracy. Rather, they are feared and loathed by the president and his wrecking crew of know-nothings because they have spent years — often decades — mastering the details of foreign and domestic policy. God bless them. With a supine Congress...

A high-contrast, black-and-white image of your bones is an effective tool for spotting fractures or breaks. But after 120+ years, x-ray imaging is getting a remarkable update with 3D, full-color images that reveal far more than just the bones inside you. These images will improve what a doctor can diagnose without cutting you open. The traditional approach to imaging the insides of a patient involves blasting them with x-rays. This electromagnetic radiation has a shorter wavelength than visible light, so it can easily pass through soft tissue, but it has more trouble passing through harder materials like bones. On the...

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Police in Ohio's capital city say the arrest of porn star Stormy Daniels was part of a long-term human trafficking investigation. Columbus police say they learned of illegal activity at city adult clubs last fall.

The Trump administration said it used DNA screenings to identify and rule out five adults who claimed to be parents of children being held at the southern border. The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) said Tuesday that the agency found two adults through DNA swabbing who thought they were biological parents and were not. Another three adults admitted they weren’t parents before the DNA swab was complete. An HHS official said those individuals could have been human traffickers, and said the results show its screening process is working. The Trump administration is using DNA testing to reunite migrant...

YouTube is adding “authoritative” context to search results about conspiracy-prone topics like the Moon landing and the Oklahoma City Bombing, as well as putting $25 million toward news outlets producing videos. Today, the company announced a new step in its Google News Initiative, a program it launched in March. The update is focused on reducing misinformation on YouTube, including the conspiracy theories that have flourished after events like the Parkland shooting. This update includes new features for breaking news updates and long-standing conspiracy theories. YouTube is implementing a change it announced in March, annotating conspiracy-related pages with text from “trusted...

Rush Limbaugh mentioned a news article. The article was written by a Harvard alum and the subject was about how Harvard alumni have screwed up so much of America while benefitting themselves. Does anyone know where I can find this article?

Seeing the rising issue of fake news and its repercussions amongst public, new ways to tackle this problem are being set up. Tech giant Apple has taken the decision to take charge of filtering fake news from real news on itself. The aim of this move is to present reliable news to its readers ahead of the mid-term elections. The Apple News app added a new section which will highlight stories curated by ‘human editors’. These stories will be well-sourced and fact-based.

Are you folks aware that when the weekly Cable TV News viewer numbers are posted, the viewers watching Fox Business Channel are not included. As it stands Fox News Channel alone is destroying both MSNBC and basement dweller, CNN. Add the FBN viewer numbers and fox just about outscores all of cable television. A recent article in Forbes magazine states, FBN crushes CNBC. Maria Bartioromo (Morning) has 260,000 viewers, Charles Payne has 310,000 viewers (Evening) and Lou Dobbs 430,000 viewers (Evening). The Fox pair is nearing the 4-5 million viewers per day on a regular basis...with MSNBC at about 2...

Red State and Federalist contributor Brandon Morse “found” a surprising political bent to the crustaceans he was after when he went crabbing last week in Tampa Bay. One of the crabs he caught had been Sharpie’d on its underside. Its message? Not very kind! Morse side-stepped talking with a reporter from the Tampa Bay Times in favor of lettings crab advocates speak for the anti-Hillary Clinton creature, retweeting statements in an attempt to gain insight into this underserved undersea demographic.

After returning from a tour of some of the war zones in the Middle East — which ended with the Free Iran Gathering 2018 in Paris — I am struck by the realization that America really did have a Manchurian Candidate in The White House for eight years. If you look at the evidence, there really is no other conclusion. The calamitous consequences of the Obama presidency will be felt for the foreseeable future. In the short year and a half that President Trump has been in office, he has put in place policy that has mitigated the damage that...

Last October, an anonymous user, known simply as Q, started posting cryptic messages on the controversial message board 4chan—the common theme being that President Trump is a secret genius and his opponents, namely Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, are evil. Q reportedly claimed to be getting this information directly from the government, thanks to tops-secret, “Q-type” security clearance. There has been little—if any—hard evidence to support Q’s musings. But over time, thousands of people started to believe them—or at least, to acknowledge they might be real. And they became the foundation of a wide-ranging conspiracy theory, known as QAnon, that...

As the hard-hitting questions remain about the Russia probe, and the way the FBI, special counsel, and the DOJ handled the investigation, Rod Rosenstein sits before the House of Representatives. When Trey Gowdy was given his time, Trey Gowdy owns Rod Rosenstein during the latest Congressional hearing. Representative Trey Gowdy (R., S.C.) criticized Justice Department investigators for prolonging their investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election during a tense House Judiciary Committee hearing Thursday.

CNN, meanwhile, trailed far behind both of its news competitors, ranking 13th in primetime and 7th in total day. In primetime, CNN lost to HGTV, Investigation Discovery, the History Channel, the Discovery Channel, and the Food Network. The Anderson Cooper and Chris Cuomo-led lineup earned them just 914,000 average primetime viewers.

While Fox News continues to dominate in the world of cable, CNN’s audience continues to shrink, reports TV Newser. In all of cable last week (not just cable news), Fox News was number one in primetime, averaging an incredible 2.513 million viewers. Fox News even humiliated second place MSNBC, which averaged just 1.78 million primetime viewers. But way, way, way down in 13th place, below even the Food Network, sits far-left CNN at number 13 and an average of just 914,000 viewers — which is about a third of Fox’s numbers. In total day viewers, Fox News is again number...

Highlighted in many of my articles is the blatant hypocrisy of the liberals. Their ideology screams hypocrisy. Their mindset: “we can say and do anything we want, but how dare any conservative have an opposing opinion.” That is a dangerous mindset to have for any political party. So, what are the dangers within the hypocrisy of […]

As I have pointed out in previous articles, fake news in the mainstream media has become a serious issue. Every liberal news platform goes out of their way to bash Trump and his policies. No matter how beneficial the policy is for America, you can count on the media to slam the policy. Now, surprisingly, CNN panel blasts Time for putting out Fake News..

THE FBI DELIBERATELY IGNORED ‘GOLDEN EMAILS,’ CRUCIAL ABEDIN MESSAGES AND MORE 7:52 PM 06/22/2018 Sidney Powell | Former federal prosecutor 2850 The Department of Justice, the Federal Bureau of Investigation and Hillary Clinton have a HUGE Weiner problem that is even bigger than we first realized.

TEGUCIGALPA (Reuters) - The Honduran toddler pictured sobbing in a pink jacket before U.S. President Donald Trump on an upcoming cover of Time magazine was not separated from her mother at the U.S. border, according to a man who says he is the girl's father. The powerful original photograph, taken at the scene of a border detention by Getty Images photographer John Moore, became one of the iconic images in the flurry of media coverage about the separation of families by the Trump administration.
