Fox Corporation Loses $1 Billion in Stock Value after Tucker Carlson Exit

/0 Comments/in , /by

Fox Corporation took a major financial hit upon Monday’s sudden announcement that Fox News and primetime host Tucker Carlson had “parted ways.”

The parent company of Fox News, which also owns branded entertainment and sports entities, saw its stock drop more than 5% in value in the minutes after the unexpected announcement.

According to the Washington Examiner, that decline in stock value is worth more than $1 billion.

Mr. Carlson had been the network’s most popular individual host — only “The Five” bested “Tucker Carlson Tonight” in the ratings last year and sometimes Mr. Carlson’s 8 p.m. show would edge out the 5 p.m. panel program.

There had been no public inkling in recent days that Mr. Carlson would soon be leaving Fox News, and neither the network nor Mr. Carlson had specified the reason for their parting by late Monday afternoon.

/0 Comments/in , /by

A transgender, a man who presents himself as a woman, has posted online a threat to anyone who might get in the way when he wants to go into a women’s facility.

The Gateway Pundit explained he goes by the name “Tara” and he warns he’ll be a “dangerous animal” if confronted.

He also called on trans people to “arm up” and buy guns.

“You back a wild animal into a corner, they’re gonna become a dangerous animal. So if you want to die on that hill of yours, of righteousness and moral majority, then you go right ahead,” he said.

“I dare you to try and stop me from going into a women’s bathroom. It will be the last mistake you ever make.” (Read more from “Transgender Threatens to Kill All Who Try to Keep Him Out of Women’s Facilities” HERE)

Parents Given Permission to Euthanize Children If They Have Certain Diseases

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Children between the ages of 1 and 12 now can be euthanized in one European nation after officials there extended their voluntary death laws to cover them.

The only qualification appears to be that they have a terminal illness and be suffering.

The Telegraph reported the Dutch government has tweaked its Euthanasia Act so that children are covered for the first time.

“Under the change, euthanasia – legal, voluntary death carried out by a doctor – will only be an option for children who are suffering unbearably with no hope of improvement and for whom palliative care cannot bring relief,” the report explained.

Health minister Ernst Kuipers said the death procedure now is available for “children who are so ill that death is unavoidable and they are expected to die soon.” (Read more from “Parents Given Permission to Euthanize Children If They Have Certain Diseases” HERE)

Hunter Biden Lawyers Demand Action against MTG in Letter to House Ethics Committee

/0 Comments/in , /by

Lawyers representing President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, sent a letter to the House Ethics Committee on Monday, requesting action be taken against Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) for her comments and posts about the president’s son.

The letter alleges that Hunter Biden has been the victim of “continuous verbal attacks, defamatory statements, publication of personal photos and data, and promotion of conspiracy theories” from Greene, per Politico.

“As outlined below, her public statements and related efforts on Twitter, Truth Social, Facebook, and during public appearances attacking Mr. Biden sound and read like school-yard insults rather than the work of a Member of Congress, and they fail to uphold the integrity and dignity expected of members of the House of Representatives,” the letter said.

The letter references tweets from Greene in which she alleged that Hunter Biden is participating in human trafficking and the solicitation of prostitutes.

“Not only are these statements false, defamatory, and malicious, but they are undignified from a Member of Congress and far beyond anything close to genuine legislative activities or political advocacy,” the letter said.

Alleged Pentagon Leaks Say ISIS Regrouping in Afghanistan, Angering Taliban

/0 Comments/in , /by

Documents allegedly procured from a trove of Department of Defense leaks suggest the Islamic State’s Afghanistan operation, ISIS-Khorasan, has strengthened markedly under Taliban rule and is consistently plotting attacks around the world, the Washington Post claimed this weekend.

ISIS-Khorasan, or ISIS-K, has taken responsibility for multiple terrorist attacks in Afghanistan since leftist President Joe Biden abandoned the country to the Taliban, another jihadist terror outfit, in August 2021. Several of those attacks have targeted Chinese interests in the country, which have expanded as the Taliban seeks investment from the Communist Party, disregarding China’s ongoing genocide against Muslim people on the countries’ mutual border. Taliban officials enthusiastically reject all indications that the Islamic State is a threat to the stability of Afghanistan, however, and have repeatedly claimed that ISIS simply does not have a presence in the country.

Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid condemned the Washington Post’s reporting as based on a “fake document” in an extensive statement posted to Twitter on Sunday, declaring that ISIS “has been severely defeated and is in the process of being eliminated.”

The Post claimed that the ominous warnings of the Islamic State rebuilding from the destruction of its “caliphate” in Iraq and Syria using Afghan territory came from documents initially surfacing on the video game chat platform Discord. That set of allegedly classified intelligence and defense documents includes information regarding a wide variety of national security topics, from the status of the war in Ukraine to sensitive conversations attributed to South Korean officials.

FBI agents arrested 21-year-old Jack Teixeira, an Airman First Class in the Massachusetts Air National Guard, in mid-April in relation to the alleged leaks. Multiple corporate media outlets have accused Teixeira of stealing the documents and sharing them on Discord with online friends in an attempt to impress them. Pentagon officials said this month that they are not sure exactly how many documents are now in the public domain as a result of this one incident.

Transgender-Identified Montana Lawmaker Censured for ‘Hate-Filled’ Comments

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A Montana Democrat was censured by the state assembly Thursday after hate-filled comments that accused Republicans of having “blood on your hands” over transgender legislation.

Rep. Zooey Zephyr, the state’s first transgender-identified lawmaker in the Montana legislature, mocked Republican prayers in a floor speech this week as the House debated a bill to codify the sex binary of male and female. Senate Bill 99, which ultimately cleared the lower chamber, bans transgender medical interventions for minors with gender dysphoria.

“The only thing I will say is if you vote yes on this bill, and yes on these amendments, I hope the next time there’s an invocation when you bow your heads in prayer, you see the blood on your hands,” Zephyr said.

The Montana House Freedom Caucus responded to the remarks with a demand to censure the Missoula-area representative. Zephyr was banned from engaging in further floor debate on Thursday and is not allowed to speak on bills in the chamber without an apology.

“It is up to me to maintain decorum here on the House floor, to protect the dignity and integrity,” said House Speaker Matt Regier, according to the Associated Press. “Any representative that I don’t feel can do that will not be recognized.” (Read more from “Transgender-Identified Montana Lawmaker Censured for ‘Hate-Filled’ Comments” HERE)

Biden Appears to Confuse Congresswoman for Man in ‘Teacher of the Year’ Speech

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Biden committed another gaffe on Monday, this time appearing to confuse a congresswoman’s name with a man’s name.

At the beginning of his National and State Teacher of the Year Celebration remarks on Monday, Biden appeared to confuse Democrat Connecticut Rep. Jahana Hayes’ name, referring to her as “Jonah.”

Biden appeared aware of Hayes’ gender, referring to the congresswoman as such while getting her to stand up.

“Thank you for the members of Congress here today, including two outstanding educating congresswomen: Jonah,” Biden said. “And by the way, Jonah Hayes is — Jonah, where are you? There you are, Jonah, right in front of me!”

“Stand up, Jonah!” the president continued, gesturing for Hayes to stand up. “Jonah happened to be the 2016 national teacher of the year.”

Hidin’ Biden: POTUS Holds Fewest Press Conferences of Any President in 40 Years

/0 Comments/in , /by

Despite a pledge to “bring transparency and truth back to the government,” President Joe Biden has held the fewest press conferences since Ronald Reagan and just half as many as his predecessor.

Biden averaged just 10 news conferences per year during his first two years in office, including 11 solo sessions and nine with foreign leaders, According to The New York Times, which cited the American Presidency Project at the University of California, Santa Barbara.

In contrast, former President Donald Trump averaged 19.5 during his first two years in office, while Barack Obama averaged 23 and Bill Clinton averaged 41.5.

Biden has also taken to avoiding foreign press. Last week in Ireland, Biden skipped the longtime habit of presidents holding press conferences with foreign leaders while abroad. Then this last Thursday, when Biden met with Columbia President Gustavo Petro, there was no press conference.
