Trump Reportedly Had a Large Influence in Securing the Gavel for McCarthy

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former President Trump may have played a crucial role in helping now-House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif) to secure the required votes needed to take over the position.

According to Breitbart, the 45th President was responsible for bringing about a compromise among House Republicans who initially opposed McCarthy to electing him.

After nearly a week of voting, McCarthy took the gavel after 15 rounds.

Several GOP members of Congress claimed that Trump was the honey that sweetened the tea, urging Republican holdouts to vote in favor of McCarthy.

“This doesn’t get done without the support and leadership of President Trump,” Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) said, applauding the former president’s help. (Read more from “Trump Reportedly Had a Large Influence in Securing the Gavel for McCarthy” HERE)

Ex-FBI Agent Says Idaho Murder Suspect May Have Used Anonymous Online Account to Talk About Crimes

/0 Comments/in , /by

A former FBI agent says an anonymous Facebook account’s eerily accurate speculations about the Idaho slayings may have been posted by murder suspect Bryan Kohberger.

An account named “Pappa Rodger” made predictions about the murder investigation in a public Facebook group well in advance of those details becoming public, said retired FBI agent Jennifer Coffindaffer, prompting her to consider that Mr. Kohberger could have been the account owner.

The comment in question was posted Nov. 30, when Pappa Rodger wrote: “Of the evidence released, the murder weapon has been consistent as a large fixed-blade knife. This leads me to believe they found the sheath. This evidence was released prior to autopsies.” (Read more from “Ex-FBI Agent Says Idaho Murder Suspect May Have Used Anonymous Online Account to Talk About Crimes” HERE)

Texas Governor Hand-Delivers Biden a Letter on El Paso Tarmac Denouncing His Border ‘Failure’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Gov. Greg Abbott made a surprise visit to El Paso to deliver a note to President Joe Biden as he stepped off Air Force One for his brief visit to the U.S.-Mexico border.

Abbott made the appearance on the tarmac as the plane taxied in from the runway and was the first person to greet Biden and three Democratic members of Congress as they deplaned Sunday afternoon.

Abbott handed Biden a one-page letter with a list of actions the Biden administration ought to take to reduce the number of immigrants attempting to cross the southern border after another record-high year. The letter criticized Biden’s first presidential border trip as “$20 billion too little and two years too late.”

“This chaos is the direct result of your failure to enforce the immigration laws that Congress enacted,” Abbott wrote in the letter. “Your open-border policies have emboldened the cartels, who grow wealthy by trafficking deadly fentanyl and even human beings. Texans are paying an especially high price for your failure, sometimes with their very lives, as local leaders from your own party will tell you if given the chance.” (Read more from “Texas Governor Hand-Delivers Biden a Letter on El Paso Tarmac Denouncing His Border ‘Failure'” HERE)

Ilhan Omar Reacts to Kevin McCarthy Pulling Her From Committees

/0 Comments/in , /by

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) on Sunday condemned House Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s (R-CA) plans to kick her off the House Foreign Affairs Committee as hypocritical.

Omar was asked about McCarthy’s repeated promises to yank her committee assignments during an appearance on MSNBC’s Yasmin Vossoughian Reports. The progressive lawmaker was specifically questioned about if there were any developments on the matter in the days since McCarthy had secured the speaker’s gavel.

“I have not [received any updates],” Omar said. “It’s my understanding that we obviously have to get the rules package done. Hopefully, Monday when we reconvene, that is on top of the agenda, and then the different caucuses, our caucus and their conference, will make appointments to committees and we will go from there.”

Taking aim at McCarthy specifically, Omar then remarked on McCarthy’s difficult path to the speakership before referencing her Somali background as reason to keep her on the Foreign Affairs Committee. (Read more from “Ilhan Omar Reacts to Kevin McCarthy Pulling Her From Committees” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Recovering Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin shared a game day message for his team — just hours before they were set to play the New England Patriots in their first game since his terrifying injury.

Hamlin suffered a cardiac arrest after a tackle during last Monday’s game at the Cincinnati Bengals, scaring players and fans alike when first responders performed CPR on the field before rushing Hamlin to a nearby hospital. . .

The Buffalo Bills changed its Twitter photo to a number three in Hamlin’s honor. The team shared video of quarterback Josh Allen sporting Hamlin’s number on a blue baseball cap and a white sweatshirt as he walked by, giving a thumbs-up to the camera.

“That’s my quarterback,” Hamlin tweeted, sharing the video.

White House Pressed Facebook To Censor Tucker Carlson, Document Reveals

/1 Comment/in , , /by

By Daily Caller. The White House pressed Facebook to censor Fox News host Tucker Carlson for saying “vaccines” “don’t work,” according to a document released by Republican Attorney General Jeff Landry of Louisiana.

“Since we’ve been on the phone – the top post about vaccines today is [T]ucker Carlson saying they don’t work. Yesterday it was Tomi Lehren [sic] saying she won’t take one,” White House Director of Digital Strategy Rob Flaherty reportedly said in an April 14, 2021 email to an unidentified Facebook employee, which was posted on Twitter by Landry.

Landry along with Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt sued the Biden administration in federal court on May 5, claiming that members of the administration colluded with social media companies to suppress debate on the 2020 presidential election, the COVID-19 pandemic and other issues. The court ordered the Biden administration to turn over communications between officials and the tech companies in July.

Rumble CEO Says Something ‘Really Nefarious’ Was Going On With YouTube Censoring Conservatives Around Election

By Fox News. Rumble CEO Chris Pavlovski is taking on Big Tech censorship with his rapidly expanding video platform which has emerged as a popular alternative to YouTube since going public last Fall.

In the latest episode of “Tucker Carlson Today,” Pavlovski sat down with the Fox News host to discuss his commitment to protecting free speech and why he believes that mission has driven his company toward success as creators continue to upload their content to the fast-growing platform.

In a preview of the interview that aired on Fox News Channel Thursday, Pavlovski, a Canadian who described himself as not particularly political, recalled getting a phone call from then-ranking Member of the House Intelligence Committee Devin Nunes, who inquired about the features of little-known website. After learning about the details of Rumble, Nunes decided to upload his video podcast to the platform.

“Next thing you know, within a couple of months, he gets a couple of hundred thousand subscribers on his Rumble channel. Meanwhile, on YouTube and he’s been on there for four years…he only has 10,000,” Pavlovski said. . .

“You can call it whatever you want. Censorship, shadow-banning…the fact that an elected official could get significantly more subscribers on a platform that no one’s ever heard of in two months, and he can’t get more than 12,000 in four years on YouTube, that’s a problem,” the Rumble CEO observed.

Pro-Football Player Who Called For COVID Jab Resisters to Be Jailed Found Dead

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Another young man, a pro football player who denounced opponents of the experimental COVID-19 shots during the pandemic, has been found dead.

Hundreds of young athletes, mostly men, have reported heart malfunctions, sometimes fatal, during their sports activities. Many, many more have simply died.

Such appears to be the case for Uche Nwaneri, 38, who played for the Jacksonville Jaguars in the National Football League.

He had adopted an extreme position on the COVID shots, demanding “jail” for anyone who refused corporate or government mandates to be part of the experiments.

Now LifeSiteNews reports he was found “unresponsive” in his home Dec. 30 in Indianapolis, Indiana, by his wife, and an autopsy report said there were “no signs of foul play.”

Preliminary results suggest “a possible heart attack, pending toxicology results,” the report said. (Read more from “Pro-Football Player Who Called For COVID Jab Resisters to Be Jailed Found Dead” HERE)

Chinese Turn to Street Cremations as Coronavirus Deaths Mount

/0 Comments/in , /by

The dishonest Chinese government claims fewer than two dozen people have died nationwide during the massive coronavirus outbreak sweeping the country, but the true number is believed to be in the thousands and could be heading into the millions.

Funeral parlors and crematoriums are overwhelmed by the dead, so some families are resorting to amateur cremations in the streets.

The New York Post (NYP) on Wednesday described unverified images circulating on social media of Chinese burning their loved ones in parking lots and roadside pyres as “horrifying”:

A woman in Shanghai explained her decision to cremate her own father on social media and dared the authorities to stop her.

“I’ve tried multiple paths to cremate my father but none have worked. The funeral services hotline told me that all cremation slots are full until after the new year. Since national law doesn’t allow patients who die of infectious diseases to be stored at home, I shall find an empty patch in our neighborhood to cremate my father. If you have problems with this, please call the police,” she wrote. (Read more from “Chinese Turn to Street Cremations as Coronavirus Deaths Mount” HERE)

Son of George Soros Has Made Repeated Trips to White House

/0 Comments/in , /by

A son of left-wing billionaire and philanthropist George Soros has made repeated visits to President Joe Biden’s White House as he boosts Democrats with campaign donations and has promoted his frequent meetings with Democratic politicians, records show.

George Soros, founder of the major liberal grant-making Open Society Foundations network, has often kept a low profile while influencing Democratic politics through the bankrolling of myriad causes. Alexander Soros, his 37-year-old son who has been more public on social media about his cozy relationships with lawmakers, has made six separate trips to the White House since Biden assumed office and gained influence with Democrats in the last several years.

The younger Soros’s visits to the White House have been between October 2021 and December 2022, according to a Washington Examiner review of White House visitor logs. Two of these meetings were with White House chief of staff Ron Klain. Alexander visited with Hazel Castillo, a staff assistant for the National Security Council, and Madeline Strasser, a former White House adviser, visitor logs show.

On April 8, 2022, Alexander was in attendance at a White House celebration on the confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, visitor logs show. Alexander also scored an invite to a ritzy December state dinner in honor of French President Emmanuel Macron, according to the guest list.

New Study Reveals Loneliest City in the US

/0 Comments/in , /by

The capital of the United States is the nation’s loneliest city, according to a new study that listed Fontana, California as the least lonely city.

The new study, which examined Census Bureau data from 170 cities across the country, revealed that almost half of the 319,565 households in Washington D.C. had only one occupant. The study was published by Chamber of Commerce and determined loneliness based on how many households in a city had just one occupant.

The study also revealed that more than one in 10 people in the U.S. live alone. In Washington D.C., the loneliness number has increased by six percent in the past six years. The other four in the top five loneliest cities are: St. Louis, Alexandria and Richmond, Virginia and Cincinnati, Ohio.

St. Louis’s numbers come despite a drop in loneliness by 3,000 households between 2021 and 2022. (Read more from “New Study Reveals Loneliest City in the US” HERE)
