Dr. Fauci Says Practicing Catholicism Is a ‘Thing That I Don’t Really Need to Do’ (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Dr. Anthony Fauci is under fire after telling the BBC that practicing the Catholic faith is a “thing that I don’t really need to do.”

During a recent appearance on the channel’s Influential with Katty Kay, President Joe Biden’s former medical adviser said he identifies as Catholic but doesn’t go to church because his “personal ethics” are “enough.” . . .

“You don’t practice [Catholicism] anymore?” she asked him.

“No,” the health official replied. The BBC hostess asked why.

“A number of complicated reasons. First of all, I think my own personal ethics on life are I think enough to keep me going on the right path,” Fauci answered. “And I think there are enough negative aspects about the organizational Church,” he continued, adding that Kay was “very well aware” of those aspects without listing them.

State Launches Black Inclusivity Training for State Park Workers (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

The state of Indiana has launched a $17,500 Black inclusivity training for its state park workers.

The three-section interactive training, run by Black Folks Camp Too (BFCT), aims to educate state park staffers on how to guide people of color through state park camping and other activities. Dan Bortner, director of the Indiana Department of Natural Resources (IDNR), said in a press release that improving the racial diversity of state park-goers would advance IDNR’s mission to “protect, enhance, preserve, and widely use” state resources.

“By actively welcoming more people who may have historically spent less time outdoors, we look forward to furthering our important mission now and for generations to come,” said Bortner.

Indiana entered into the $17,500 contract with BFCT in April of this year. BFCT has partnered with the state parks of North Carolina, South Carolina, and Oregon to offer diversity expertise as well. North Carolina paid BFCT $26,800. Oregon paid BFCT $2,000 for a keynote speech in October.

The training will review a history of outdoor recreational barriers that prevented communities of color from participation, as well as exploring and identifying biases regarding outdoors access for communities of color.

Ramaswamy Absolutely Obliterates DeSantis, Nikki Haley, and Chris Christie in GOP Debate (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

In the fourth GOP presidential debate, Vivek Ramaswamy delivered a performance that not only captivated the audience but also visibly stunned fellow candidate Nikki Haley. Known for his assertive and articulate style, Ramaswamy dominated the stage with a blend of incisive arguments and bold statements on the subjects of climate change, the Ukraine war, and more.

The debate kicked off with a discussion on U.S. involvement in Ukraine. During this segment, Ramaswamy questioned Nikki Haley’s basic geographical knowledge, which nullified her into a blank stare. “Look at that … She has no idea what the hell the names of those [Ukraine] provinces are, but she wants to send our sons and daughters and our troops and our military equipment to go fight it.”

Ramaswamy then shifted his focus to the dynamics of American politics. He exposed what he called the “dirty little secret” of the system, stating, “The people who we elect to run the government are not the ones who are even actually running the government.”

Ramaswamy made an array of statements that go against the GOP establishment rhetoric. “Why am I the only person on this stage at least who can say that January 6 now does look like it was an inside job?” he asked. Ramaswamy added that the Russia collusion narrative surrounding Trump’s presidency was a hoax and that the 2020 election was stolen from him by Big Tech.

Ramaswamy’s debate performance escalated when he directly accused Nikki Haley of corruption. While holding a sign that read, “Nikki = Corrupt,” he charged, “Nikki, I don’t have a woman problem. You have a corruption problem. And I think that that’s what people need to know. Nikki is corrupt. This is a woman who will send your kids to die so she can buy a bigger house.”

Watch: Undercover Video Shows Pornhub Employees Want Porn to Steer Young People’s Sexual Identities

/0 Comments/in , /by

Employees of Pornhub’s parent company were caught on camera touting the benefits of underage kids watching pornography, and even suggesting that making videos of transgender-identifying people engaging in sex could help young people figure out their sexuality, according to a new video released exclusively on The Michael Knowles Show on Wednesday.

Arden Young, the undercover journalist behind the newly released video from Sound Investigations, told Daily Wire host Michael Knowles that the videos indicate that “protecting children is not a concern, maximizing profits is their concern, and they don’t seem to care who they hurt in the process.”

The new video documents employees of Aylo, formerly named Mindgeek, the parent company of Pornhub, admitting to attempting to steer viewers’ sexual proclivities.

Employee Dillon Rice, a senior script writer at the company, is seen arguing that pornography usage could be beneficial for preteens. “Let’s say you’re 12 years old, you’re still figuring out your sexuality, maybe even your gender, wouldn’t it be helpful to see not a celebration but maybe just a … normalization of something that you think is what you want?” Rice is seen saying.

Rice went on to specifically reference a pornography site centered around transgender individuals, remarking, “Let’s say I was 12 and I saw TransAngels … it would help me figure out what I do like and what I don’t like.”

Chris Christie and Nikki Haley Don’t Support Banning Child Sex Changes

/0 Comments/in , /by

Gov. Chris Christie (R) claimed during the fourth Republican presidential debate that outlawing sex-mutilating transgender procedures for minors would take away parents’ rights over their children.

Megyn Kelly, debate moderator and host of The Megyn Kelly Show, asked the former New Jersey governor on Wednesday night if his pro-transgender position, which enables the “cutting off [of] body parts at a time when kids cannot even legally smoke a cigarette” is “too out of step” for him to qualify as the Republican nominee.

“Kids who go from puberty blockers to cross-sex hormones are at a much greater likelihood of winding up sterile,” Kelly noted. “How is it that you think a parent should be able to OK these surgeries, never mind the sterilization of a child, and aren’t you way too out of step on this issue to be the Republican nominee?”

“No, I’m not because Republicans believe in less government, not more, in less involvement with government, not more government involvement in people’s lives,” Christie replied. . .

Christie is not the only Republican presidential candidate to take the position that the government should stay out of the child sex change industry, which has been tirelessly promoted by the Biden administration. Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley has been facing renewed criticism because of a June TV interview in which she said the government should not intervene if parents decide to put their children through irreversible, life-altering “transgender” surgery.

Biden Makes Shocking Comment on Ukraine, Border; Gets Nailed on Fib; Seems to Read Teleprompter Direction

/0 Comments/in , /by

Joe Biden said some shocking things on Wednesday, not the least of which was he again called the fact that he interacted with his son’s business associates “lies.”

Biden also spoke at the White House Tribal Nations Summit. Biden being Biden, he tried to pander to the Native Americans saying he wanted to play lacrosse (a sport invented by Native Americans). Among the things he said was that he wanted to play lacrosse, but it was the same season as football so he couldn’t. But as we noted, those sports don’t run in the same season. But there was another problem with Biden’s claim—they didn’t have lacrosse at his high school until 1993.

So what is he saying here? Again something that sounds like a Biden tale that isn’t possible.

He also spoke about Ukraine and the border during remarks at the White House. This is shocking what he says, but liberal media will ignore that he said it and what it means.

He says Republicans trying to hold up funding for Ukraine until he does something to secure our border is holding Ukrainian funding hostage “with their extreme, partisan border policies.” (Read more from “Biden Makes Shocking Comment on Ukraine, Border; Gets Nailed on Fib; Seems to Read Teleprompter Direction” HERE)

WATCH: Sparks Fly Between Riley Gaines and Dem Rep During Hearing on Biden Proposal to Rewrite Title IX

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Representatives and witnesses highlighted concerns for girls and women during a contentious hearing on Tuesday challenging the Biden administration’s proposed changes to Title IX, which would effectively broaden the definition of sex to include “gender identity.”

The proposed changes would rewrite Title IX in such a way that policies banning biological males who identify as trans from competing with or against females would now be in violation of law. Issuing such sex distinctions to protect girls sports, therefore, could strip a school of its funding. The rule would be applied to public K-12 schools, colleges, universities, and other institutions that receive federal funding.

The hearing opened with a rather fiery interaction between former NCAA swimmer-turned-advocate Riley Gaines and Democratic Rep. Summer Lee (PA), who preemptively suggested Gaines and other witnesses’ testimonies would be “transphobic” and filled with “hateful misinformation.”

“And Ranking Member Lee, if my testimony makes me transphobic, then I believe you’re opening monologue makes you a misogynist,” Gaines said in closing her opening statement.

Lee interrupted the next witness to ask to have Gaines’ words taken down. Gaines chimed in, “Can I just ask, how it’s fair to be called transphobic —” before Lee interjected, “I never called you anything.”

Senator Marsha Blackburn Grills FBI Director Wray Over Epstein Client List (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

In a tense exchange during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on oversight of the FBI, Republican Senator Marsha Blackburn confronted FBI Director Christopher Wray on Monday regarding the Bureau’s failure to release the client list of convicted sex trafficker and abuser Jeffrey Epstein. The questioning also delved into why the FBI seemingly ignored accounts from victims of Epstein’s heinous crimes.

During the hearing, Senator Blackburn pressed Director Wray on the Bureau’s handling of allegations made by survivors, pointing to instances where victims claimed the FBI refused to investigate their claims. In a notable moment, she referenced a survivor who, despite repeatedly bringing forward evidence of Epstein’s conduct, alleged that the FBI turned a blind eye to her claims.

The senator’s scrutiny extended beyond the Epstein case, as evidenced by her tweet challenging Senator Dick Durbin’s awareness of a subpoena request she filed for Jeffrey Epstein’s flight logs. The tweet included a receipt, raising questions about the level of transparency and cooperation within the Senate regarding investigations into Epstein’s extensive network.

The Epstein scandal has been a focal point of criticism against law enforcement agencies, particularly in light of Epstein’s connections to influential individuals. Senator Blackburn’s pointed questions underscore concerns about accountability, transparency, and the Bureau’s response to serious allegations of sexual exploitation and abuse.

Senate Showdown: Sen. Blackburn’s Bid to Subpoena Epstein’s Flight Logs Denied by Dem Senator (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

In a recent development on Capitol Hill, Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) revealed that her request to subpoena Jeffrey Epstein’s flight logs had been denied by Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL). The contentious decision has fueled accusations of partisan maneuvering, with Blackburn asserting that Democrats may be hiding crucial information related to Epstein’s alleged human trafficking activities.

Taking to Twitter, Blackburn expressed her frustration, stating, “@SenatorDurbin BLOCKED my request to subpoena Jeffrey Epstein’s flight logs. What are Democrats trying to hide? I want to know the names of every single person who may have taken Jeffrey Epstein’s private plane and participated in his human trafficking ring. RT if you do too.”

The denial of Blackburn’s request comes at a time when tensions between Republicans and Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee are escalating. The Committee’s Democrats recently made headlines by voting to subpoena private citizens, including Harlan Crow and Leonard Leo, as part of an unprecedented move aimed at Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito. The move has been framed as a strategy in the Democrats’ broader initiative of “reverse court-packing.”

Blackburn’s push to subpoena Epstein’s flight logs adds another layer to the already contentious atmosphere surrounding the Senate Judiciary Committee. Her demand, made in early November, included an investigation into individuals who flew on Epstein’s private plane, commonly referred to as the “Lolita Express.”

In response to Durbin’s denial, Blackburn issued a statement condemning the decision, stating, “This is a sad day in the history of the prestigious Judiciary Committee and further underscores the Left’s two tiers of justice crusade.” She went on to criticize Senate Democrats for allegedly attempting to undermine the Supreme Court and Justice Clarence Thomas while neglecting other issues, such as Justice Sotomayor’s alleged misuse of taxpayer-funded staff.

Fart Fiasco: John Kerry’s Unintended Emission Steals Spotlight at Climate Change Conference (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The United States’ Special Presidential Envoy for Climate, John Kerry, found himself at the center of an unexpected incident during the Climate Change Conference in Dubai on Sunday. While passionately discussing US policy on coal power plants, Kerry inadvertently unleashed a burst of wind energy of a different kind — a momentary flatulence that became the unexpected highlight of the international event.

The incident occurred as Kerry was advocating against permitting more coal-fired power plants worldwide. In the midst of his anti-coal diatribe, a distinct sound of passing gas interrupted his speech. The unexpected noise, commonly known as a Bronx cheer, was captured by microphones, providing an amusing twist to the serious discussions on climate policy.

Kerry’s fellow panelists, Becky Anderson, Managing Editor of CNN Abu Dhabi, and Fatih Birol, Executive Director of the International Energy Agency, maintained their composure as the crowd, seemingly unfazed, broke into applause. Anderson, seated within potential striking distance, subtly jerked her head aside and discreetly placed her hand to her mouth, possibly anticipating any lingering effects of the comical interruption.

Despite the unexpected interruption, Kerry continued with his impassioned speech on the interconnected nature of the climate crisis and health issues. The incident, however, did not go unnoticed, with some critics viewing it as an embarrassment to the United States on the international stage.

Larry O’Connor of Townhall Media emphasized the gravity of the situation, stating, “The biggest problem is, during this entire exchange, representing us, The United States of America, he ripped a fart out.”
