On this date in 1673, Indians named Kaelkompte and Keketamape were sentenced to hanging and gibbeting for the murder of an English soldier near Albany, New York. (The date this sentence was executed, if it was not immediate, has been lost to history.) This place had been known as Beverwijck up until a few years prior, when the English gave it its new and still-current christening* after taking it away New Netherland during the Second Anglo-Dutch War. The transition of its legal organs was a more gradual process — with a long survival of Dutch practices upon which the English...

As the housing crisis deepens, the corrosive impact of Airbnb on communities becomes increasingly evident. With over 1,000 San Diegans falling into homelessness each month, the question arises: How many Airbnb properties sit empty, exacerbating the crisis? Complicating matters further is a colossal loophole in the ordinance meant to regulate short-term rentals (STRs). While cracking down on Airbnb alone may not be a catchall solution, it’s undeniable that taking thousands of residential units offline hampers efforts to meet housing goals.

R&B star Usher delivered a hit-heavy half-time show at Sunday's Super Bowl - with help from will.i.am, Alicia Keys, Ludacris... and a pair of roller skates. A disclaimer shown before the performance jokingly warned viewers it may cause "singing, dancing, sweating, gyrating, and possible relationship issues". It would go on to deliver on all fronts. Dressed in all-white and surrounded by a swarm of energetic dancers, Usher emerged on the stage at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas and launched straight into one of his best-known songs, Caught Up. It kicked off a dynamic performance which took advantage of the...

Vladimir Putin once again appeared to be unable to control a twitchy leg during his lengthy interview with US right-wing journalist Tucker Carlson earlier this week. The Russian president spent half an hour of the sit-down chat on an almost uninterrupted ramble covering 1,200 years of Eastern European history. But some viewers were distracted by his apparent need to physically push down his knee to prevent his leg from moving around. It’s been an odd habit of Putin’s for a while – stretching back at least as far as September 2022, when the appendage started twitching during a speech in...

Texas Can Survive as the Lone Star State Posted Jan 30, 2024 By Martin Armstrong | Oil Production Crude Energy 1 graph Most importantly, Texas has oil, gas, and refining capacity and would continue to produce and refine fossil fuels. Without Texas, the United States would not be able to wage war, lacking the energy to fuel its tanks. Texas could stand on its own, and to ensure energy, other Red States would join hands against Washington.

President Joe Biden said the attack was carried out by "radical Iran-backed militant groups". He added: "We shall respond." -- Why are US troops in Jordan/Syria? Rand Paul is right.

I believe we should rename the Democrat Party, the Bizarro party. Why not? After all, when you compare what the Democrat Party considers normal today compare to what was their normal was in 1999, we can clearly see they created a weird type of Bizarro World. Let us look at the evidence, what was racist yesterday is now acceptable, what was was evil is now righteous, what was illegal is now legal, what was child abuse is now a child's right, what was boy is now girl, and what was a girl is now a boy. An example of...

Former President Donald Trump appeared to confuse his Republican presidential primary opponent former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley with former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., at a rally in New Hampshire on Friday. Speaking in Concord, Trump said that Haley, his former ambassador to the United Nations, had been responsible for the collapse of Capitol Hill security during the January 6, 2021, riot. Trump has previously blamed Pelosi for turning down National Guard support before the riot. During his speech, Trump remarked that Haley's crowd sizes at campaign events in the Granite State were small compared to his, before going...

“Local” news reporters are among the most contemptible; almost all “local” news stations are owned by large conglomerates like Cumulus, Townsquare, iHeart, or are “affiliates” of national networks. They posture as “local” but mostly all report the same nationally-curated crap. If you’ve ever lived in a “red” programming market, you’ll know that any station owned by these companies basically acts as a subversive force on the local culture.

Whatever anyone thought of Gonzalo Lira as a person, we should recognize the obvious reality here: The DC regime left Gonzalo to die in Ukraine because he was on the wrong side of the issue, simple as that. Brittany Griner, a total embarrassment to our country and an outspoken America-hater, was a top priority. We don’t have to “imagine if…” because we saw it with our own eyes. Claims about “war crimes” or “Russian spying” are unfounded; Gonzalo Lira was charged under a Ukrainian statute passed specifically to quell such dissent, and was left to die by the US State...

On January 12, 1949, Margaret Allen was executed by Albert Pierrepoint at Strangeways Gaol. She was the first woman hanged there since Charlotte Bryant in 1936. 41-year-old Margaret had beaten to death an elderly neighbor, Nancy Ellen Chadwick, on August 21, 1948, after Nancy stopped by Margaret’s cottage at 137 Bacup Road, Rawtenstall, Lancashire. Several hours later, she dragged the body outside and left it in the road, almost literally right on her doorstep. The following facts can be gleaned about Margaret Allen’s life: Since her early twenties, she had habitually worn men’s clothing and said she wanted to be...
