By Mike LaChance  Washington, DC Mayor Muriel Bowser is lifting the ban on indoor dining for restaurants. Isn’t that great news? It’s probably just a coincidence that she is doing this two days after Joe Biden was sworn in as president. Democrats would never have shut down our economy for purely political reasons, right? FOX Business  reports: DC Mayor Bowser confirms indoor bar and restaurant service to resume at 25% capacity starting Jan. 22 Washington, D.C., will roll back its COVID-19 restrictions on indoor dining beginning Friday, Jan. 22 at 5 a.m., allowing restaurants and bars to return to 25% capacity, or no more than 250 people. The move, first announced on Wednesday in a tweet by D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser’s chief of staff, John Falcicchio, aligns with the end of an “Inauguration Pause” on city’s Phase 2 reopening activities. The “Inauguration Pause” was an extension of a Dec. 23 order implemented to flatten the curve amid a surge in coronavirus cases, which was set to

Skip to Comments There’s something vaguely familiar about how the coronavirus has unfolded. Watching the narrative play out over the past year, I can’t help but be reminded of the virus story in the graphic novel and 2004 dystopia film “V for Vendetta.” By AMY MASTRINE The Pathogen Path to Power In  V for Vendetta , the United Kingdom has fallen into a totalitarian police state under the rule of a political party called Norsefire, which rules by force and exerts total control over its citizens. One man, known only as V, was the victim of government imprisonment and experimentation and swears vengeance against the ruling party. The movie chronicles his efforts to reveal the corruption and evilness of the government to the people of the United Kingdom. (The ethics of how he goes about this would require another essay!) Norsefire’s main weapons o

Skip to Comments By Reuters in Washington The Texas Republican senator John Cornyn warned on Saturday that Donald Trump’s second impeachment could lead to the prosecution of former Democratic presidents if Republicans retake Congress in two years’ time. Trump this month became the first US president to be impeached twice, after the Democratic-controlled House, with the support of 10 Republicans, voted to charge him with incitement of insurrection over the assault on the Capitol by his supporters on 6 January which left five people dead. Trump failed to overturn his election defeat and Joe Biden was sworn in as president this week. After a brief moment of bipartisan sentiment in which members from both parties condemned the unprecedented attack on Congress as it met to formalize Biden’s victory, a number of Senate Republicans are opposing Trump’s trial, which could lead to a vote blocking him from future office. “If it is a good idea to impeach and try former presidents, wh

Happy Sunday everyone. Often, conservatives and those with political intelligence, recall George Orwell's 1984, and Animal Farm. Recently many pundits have referenced AF, in regard to our current situation. I read it and can see how the allegory applies day. For those who haven't read it, or perhaps would like to read it again, or in this case hear it, I present it for your consideration.

Skip to Comments By Beth Baumann One of Joe Biden's first acts as president was to sign a 60-day moratorium on new oil and natural gas leases and drilling permits. It's one way the administration plans to tackle the "climate change crisis." But Americans are already feeling the negative effects of the decision. New Mexico, one of the most productive oil and gas areas in the country, is worried about the moratorium. The natural energy industry's success impacts everything, down to education and government-funded programs. Industry insiders have said this regulation means the entire regulatory process shuts down, including normal day-to-day activities "routine requests that arise during the normal course of business to requests for rights of way for new pipelines designed to gather more natural gas as part of efforts to reduce venting and flaring," the  Associated Press  reported. The majority of New Mexico's production takes place on federal land

Skip to Comments By ProTrumpNews Staff Biden voters are realizing they have been conned. Text message conversations shared on Twitter show their feelings of betrayal. From Mike Cernovich: In a group text with some Biden voters.

He said everyone on the job site are freaking out thinking they are going to lose their jobs.  He’s blaming me for voting for Biden. You know I hated the way Trump acted. Is it true that Jeremy could lose his job?” Stunning and sad. These voters were promised a “moderate” Pres

Skip to Comments By ZACHARY STIEBER At least 5,000 National Guard members will remain in Washington through mid-March, a spokesman for the agency confirmed to The Epoch Times. “As we continue to work to meet the final post-inauguration requirements, the National Guard has been requested to continue supporting federal law enforcement agencies with 7,000 members and will draw down to 5,000 through mid-March,” Maj. Matt Murphy told The Epoch Times via email. “We are providing assistance such as security, communications, medical evacuation, logistics, and safety support to state, district, and federal agencies,” he added. The U.S. Army didn’t respond to a request for comment. Tens of thousands of National Guard personnel poured into the nation’s capital for the inauguration of President Joe Biden. Over 26,000 were on duty on Jan. 20, as part of a heavy militarization of Washington. Guardsmen experienced no security incidents and only three people were arrested in Washington on Ina

By Joe Hoft  What is going on in Arizona?  After finally obtaining the right to audit the ballots in Maricopa County, those in power refuse to move forward and allow an audit by a legitimate forensic auditor.  Their actions show their desire to hide invalid ballots rather than identify any issues with the 2020 election in Arizona. We reported on December 30th that concerned citizens in Maricopa County in Arizona got together to look into the election fraud in their state.  They performed data analysis and found between 160,000 to 400,000 ‘Phantom’ Ballots and performed door to door canvasing and found up to 30% of the addresses they looked at were fraudulent.  Their results were shocking.  Liz Harris introduced the project : The Arizona legislature held a hearing in December to discuss the various findings and accusations related to the election in Maricopa County and soon after the hearing the Senate  subpoenaed the county .  The County Board of Supervisors, who oversee the electio

By Duncan Johnson U.S.A.  – -(AmmoLand.com)-  Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) and Firearms Policy Foundation (FPF) announced the filing of an amicus brief with the United States Supreme Court in the case of NYSRPA v. Corlett, a case involving the right to bear arms in public. The brief is available at  FPCLegal.org . New York State forbids ordinary law-abiding citizens to carry a firearm outside the home without a license. To acquire a license, an applicant must demonstrate a “proper cause.” This requires more than just a desire to exercise the right protected by the Second Amendment. It requires more than a desire to protect one’s self or family, more than good moral character and the want to carry a weapon, and more than living or working in a high-crime area. Instead, “proper cause” requires an applicant to demonstrate “a special need for self-protection distinguishable from that of the general community or of persons engaged in the same profession.” So by its very definition, ordin

By MATT MARGOLIS  On his first day in office, Joe Biden signed an executive order mandating masks be worn on federal property at all times, declaring: “Wearing masks isn’t a partisan issue — it’s a patriotic act that can save countless lives.” Two days later, Biden is saying “There’s nothing we can do to change the trajectory of the pandemic in the next several months.” Biden: “There’s nothing we can do to change the trajectory of the pandemic in the next several months.” Excuse me? pic.twitter.com/vrd90tWNVt — Matt Margolis (Parler/Gab/MeWe: @MattMargolis) (@mattmargolis) January 22, 2021 I’m sorry, but haven’t we been told for months that lockdowns and mask mandates were crucial to stopping this virus? How does Biden explain mandating masks on federal grounds and property only to now say that there’s nothing that can be done to change the trajectory of the pandemic? Joe Biden spent months blaming Trump for the pandemic, blaming him for the deaths caused by the virus, but now there’s

By Cristina Laila Joe Biden was all doom and gloom Friday after he destroyed tens of thousands of jobs his first day in office. After his bizarre inaugural behind fences and 20,000 military troops, Biden hobbled to the Oval Officer were he signed several executive orders including the end of construction of the Keystone XL Pipeline and the end of construction of the Trump border wall. Canceling the Keystone Pipeline costs over 11,000 construction jobs and 42,100 jobs throughout the US during the construction process according to the US State Department. Canceling the Trump border wall will cost 10,000 jobs. That’s a total of 52,100 jobs lost in his first 8 hours in office. Biden also suspended new oil/gas leasing on federal lands and water. According to Congressman Kevin Brady (T-TX) if Biden’s war on gas and oil is permanent, 120,000 Texas jobs will be lost. 120,000 more jobs lost in Texas! UPDATE: Killing more Texas jobs. 2 days, 2 attacks on TX energy jobs. A
