WATCH: Teacher Tells Student Defending ICE, ‘Just Because You’re Alive Doesn’t Mean You’re Intelligent’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Videos emerging online reveal teachers in different states blatantly indoctrinating their students in the anti-ICE narrative after the shooting death of leftist agitator Renee Good by a federal officer in Minneapolis.

One video shows Dr. Heather Abrahamson, a social-studies teacher and Gender and Sexuality Alliance adviser at Becker High School in Becker, Minnesota, getting into a heated discussion with students who were defending the ICE agent’s action as Good’s car appeared to have raced toward him. . .

“It was a split second,” one student asserts.

“No,” the teacher replies, “because watch the video. He was not in danger!”

A student tells her: “Just because you’re yelling does not mean you’re winning.”

The teacher fires back: “Just because you’re alive doesn’t mean you’re intelligent.” (Read more from “WATCH: Teacher Tells Student Defending ICE, ‘Just Because You’re Alive Doesn’t Mean You’re Intelligent’” HERE)

‘Ridiculous’: Lawyers for Bill and Hillary Clinton Make ‘Untenable Offer’ About Testifying on Epstein

/0 Comments/in , /by

The chairman of the House Oversight Committee says lawyers for Bill and Hillary Clinton have made a “ridiculous” and “untenable offer” concerning potential testimony about their connections to Palm Beach pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, seeking no official transcript and no other members of Congress present.

“Facing contempt of Congress, the Clintons’ lawyers made an untenable offer: that I travel to New York for a conversation with President Clinton only,” said U.S. Rep. James Comer, R-Ky. “No official transcript would be recorded and other Members of Congress would be barred from participating. I have rejected the Clintons’ ridiculous offer.”

“The Clintons’ latest demands make clear they believe their last name entitles them to special treatment,” he continued.

“The House Oversight Committee’s bipartisan subpoenas require the Clintons to appear for depositions that are under oath and transcribed. Former President Clinton has a documented history of parsing language to evade questions, responded falsely under oath, and was impeached and suspended from the practice of law as a result.

“The absence of an official transcript is an indefensible demand that is insulting to the American people who demand answers about Epstein’s crimes. As part of our investigation, the House Oversight Committee has released transcripts of interviews with former U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr and former U.S. Secretary of Labor Alex Acosta, which has provided much needed transparency to the public. Without a formal record, Americans would be left to rely on competing accounts of what was said.

Wife Suspects Her Church Deacon Husband of Cheating — Then She Uncovers Secret Bathroom Videos That Trigger Police Search

/0 Comments/in , /by

Tennessee husband and now-former church deacon has been criminally charged after his wife, who was holding his phone during a medical procedure, allegedly discovered videos of an underage babysitter in their bathroom, police said.

Christopher Thomas Collins, 42, was arrested Jan. 14 after police reportedly found explicit content on his cell phone. Collins is being detained on a $50,000 bond, according to Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office records.

Citing the police affidavit, WTVC-TV reported that Collins handed his phone over to his wife while he was undergoing a medical procedure.

Collins’ wife suspected her husband of cheating, so she searched his phone for evidence of infidelity, according to the affidavit.

But the wife found explicit videos and a photo of the couple’s former babysitter inside a hidden folder in the photo gallery, the affidavit said. (Read more from “Wife Suspects Her Church Deacon Husband of Cheating — Then She Uncovers Secret Bathroom Videos That Trigger Police Search” HERE)

Here Are Some of the New Taxes Coming to Virginia Under Democrat Rule. It’s Insane.

/0 Comments/in , /by

I live here because of work, but it’s become a deep-blue hellhole. It’s not the mid-2000s anymore. We have lunatics aplenty in Virginia, who opted to elect Abigail Spanberger, who donned a Dr. Evil-like moon suit during COVID, and Jay Jones, who wishes to see me and my family dead because I’m not a Democrat, as attorney general. They have the trifecta here. And a parade of horribles is coming. If you’re able to move and are a conservative Virginian, it might be time to flee, because this list of new taxes and other public policy nonsense is going to pass.

It goes beyond the redistricting plans, the ending of cooperation with ICE, and ghoulish abortion amendments. Here’s what they have on their docket:

Congressman Urges UFO Disclosures, Whistleblower Protection

/0 Comments/in , /by

Republican Missouri Rep. Eric Burlison joined witnesses and enthusiasts at a conference commemorating the 30th anniversary of a famous alleged extraterrestrial encounter, during which he spoke in favor of disclosure and whistleblower protection.

The UAP (UFO) Press Conference, hosted by investigative filmmaker James Fox, marked the 30th anniversary of an alleged 1996 encounter in Varginha, Brazil, during which some claim the Brazilian government captured two “non-human” entities. Burlison advocated during the conference for two pieces of legislation that he says will improve transparency on the issue and encourage further witnesses to come forward.

“This is once in more compelling first person narratives,” Burlison told the Daily Caller News Foundation during the conference. “I’m looking forward to actually getting my hands on any kind of real physical evidence — whether that’s material evidence or biological samples, maybe from the corpse … at the end of the day, I remain skeptical until I get my hands on physical evidence. But until then, I’m going to take it seriously investigating myself.”

Burlison urged passage of the UAP (Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena) Disclosure Act as well as whistleblower protections in legislation.

“We’ve been given marching orders — we have legislation that we need to pass,” the congressman said. “We’ve heard from a lot of witnesses. It’s time for action. And it’s time to get the receipts. So it’s time to pass the UAP disclosure act. It is time to pass whistleblower protection, within that or a separate act.” (Read more from “Congressman Urges UFO Disclosures, Whistleblower Protection” HERE)

Air Force One Makes U-Turn Over Atlantic, Returns To Andrews AFB

/0 Comments/in , /by

Air Force One turned around while en route to the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland Tuesday night.

The crew reportedly detected a “minor electrical issue” and decided to return to Andrews Air Force Base “out of an abundance of caution,” with President Donald Trump and his team planning to board another aircraft. Trump was en route to the WEF to give a “Special Address” Wednesday afternoon local time when the issue occurred.

Washington Examiner White House reporter Mabinty Quarshie, a member of the “out-of-town” press pool, noted the lights in the Air Force One cabin went out without explanation shortly after takeoff before the aircraft turned back while over the Atlantic Ocean. Air Force One made a safe landing at Andrews Air Force Base, where Trump and those on the VC-25 will take two smaller aircraft, CNN reported.

“[White House Press Secretary Karoline] Leavitt made a joke about the Qatari jet sounding ‘much better’ right now,” Quarshie wrote in the report sent out to reporters. (Read more from “Air Force One Makes U-Turn Over Atlantic, Returns To Andrews AFB” HERE)

Why Dangerous, Bone-Breaking Turbulence Is on the Rise — and How to Sit on a Plane to Avoid Getting Hurt

/0 Comments/in , /by

Soaring levels of turbulence have increasingly turned air travel into a real nightmare at 30,000 feet. Just last month, two people suffered broken ankles after a British Airways flight encountered severe turbulence en route to the UK.

The most infamous recent incident occurred in May 2024 when a 73-year-old British grandfather was killed and more than 30 others were injured after a Singapore Airlines flight hit severe turbulence — plummeting 6,000 feet and sending unfastened travelers crashing into overhead bins. . .

Unfortunately, air passengers likely face more turbulent times ahead. According to a 2023 study out of the University of Reading in the United Kingdom, clear-air turbulence — high altitude bumps that occur in the absence of clouds — has increased in regions around the world.

Between 1979 and 2020, the total annual duration of severe turbulence over the North Atlantic — one of the world’s busiest flyways — soared by 55%. Meanwhile, moderate turbulence skyrocketed by 37%, and light turbulence saw a 17% increase. . .

“Following a decade of research showing that climate change will increase clear-air turbulence in the future, we now have evidence suggesting that the increase has already begun,” said Professor Paul Williams, an atmospheric scientist at the University of Reading who co-authored the study.

Second Lady Usha Vance Pregnant With 4th Child

/0 Comments/in , /by

Vice President JD Vance and his wife Usha shared they are expecting their fourth child in a joyous announcement on social media Tuesday.

“We’re very excited to share the news that Usha is pregnant with our fourth child, a boy. Usha and the baby are doing well, and we are all looking forward to welcoming him in late July,” the couple said in a statement in a joint Instagram post.

“During this exciting and hectic time, we are particularly grateful for the military doctors who take excellent care of our family and for the staff members who do so much to ensure that we can serve the country while enjoying a wonderful life with our children.”

The vice president, 41, and Usha, 40, have been married since 2014. They have three other children, Ewan, 8; Vivek, 5 and Mirabel, 3.

Mirabel became something of an Inauguration Day viral sensation for sporting colorful bandages featuring cartoon characters Bluey and Scooby-Doo on her fingers as her mother held her while her father took the oath of office a year ago Tuesday.

Trump Gives Cryptic 3-Word Response When Asked How Far He’ll Go to Get Greenland

/1 Comment/in , /by

By Fox News. President Donald Trump fueled fresh uncertainty Tuesday, offering a terse “you’ll see” when asked at the White House how far he would go to get Greenland.

Trump dismissed concerns that Greenlanders do not want to join the U.S. and that a move to seize the island would undermine the NATO alliance.

In recent weeks, Trump has zeroed in on Greenland, the world’s largest island and a strategic outpost in the Arctic.

The remote, semi-autonomous Danish territory, a NATO ally, hosts a key U.S. military base and occupies a strategic position in an Arctic region growing more competitive as melting ice opens new shipping lanes and access to critical resources.

Trump has repeatedly framed Greenland as a national security necessity, arguing that Russia and China would gain ground in the region if the U.S. does not acquire it. (Read more from “Trump Gives Cryptic 3-Word Response When Asked How Far He’ll Go to Get Greenland” HERE)

Trump’s Greenland threats spark outrage from EU and test longtime NATO alliance

By KIRO 7. President Donald Trump ‘s pledge to provoke a sweeping tariff fight with Europe to get his way in taking control of Greenland has left many of America’s closest allies warning of a rupture with Washington capable of shattering the NATO alliance that had once seemed unshakable.

The European Union’s top official on Tuesday called Trump’s planned new tariffs over Greenland a “mistake” and questioned Trump’s trustworthiness. French President Emmanuel Macron said the EU could retaliate by deploying one of its most powerful economic tools, known colloquially as a trade “bazooka.”

Trump prides himself on ratcheting up pressure to try to negotiate through a position of strength. He was leaving Tuesday — the anniversary of his inauguration — for the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, a venue that offers Trump the chance to defuse tensions as quickly as he stirred them up.

But European leaders — digging in and vowing to defend Denmark and its control over semiautonomous Greenland — may be seeking just as hard to meet an extraordinary moment with a show of their fierce resolve.

That could hurt the chances of Trump finding a quick way to turn around the crisis. Greenland’s leader insisted on respect for its territorial integrity and said recognition of international law is “not a game.” (Read more from “Trump’s Greenland threats spark outrage from EU and test longtime NATO alliance” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is continuing arrests across Minnesota thanks to Operation Metro Surge, recently nabbing illegal aliens convicted of murder, domestic abuse, and drunk driving, among other crimes.

“As our law enforcement are facing rampant violence against them, they arrested murderers, drug traffickers, and an illegal with 24 criminal convictions in Minneapolis yesterday,” the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement.
