By Cristina Laila Joe Biden will name Clintonite John Podesta as the new Climate Envoy to replace John Kerry, according to the  Washington Post . Last summer the Biden Regime  trotted out Podesta , a current Biden advisor and former Chief of Staff to Bill Clinton, to lecture us on ‘climate change.’ Podesta admitted Joe Biden’s so-called ‘Inflation Reduction Act’ is actually the Marxist green new deal repackaged with a different name. “We have to cut the carbon pollution that’s driving the climate crisis and that’s what the ‘Inflation Reduction Act’ is all about!” Podesta said last August. Podesta also absurdly claimed Americans across the political spectrum support climate change mandates. “Across the political spectrum, they support the movement to cleaner forms of energy, cleaner forms of transportation!” Podesta said.

By Mike Miller In this episode of "Try to Control Your Shock and Amazement"... Police departments in sanctuary cities and their suburbs are reporting crime waves tied to illegal aliens who are summarily released into the country by the Biden administration after crossing the southern border. In particular, Chicago and New York City are suffering significant increases in crimes committed by illegals. Raise your hand if you're surprised. Oak Brook, Illinois, Police Chief Brian Strockis reported six illegal alien felonies in a recent single day. The chief  told  Fox News his department has arrested 47 illegals since October 23.  While on the air with Fox on Tuesday, Strockis said he had just been informed of the arrest of two more Venezuelan illegals for alleged theft. Strockis said there have been at least 175 illegal arrests in Oak Brook during the past year — mostly for property crimes.  Strockis also said in a Jan. 24  statement : I believe that six felony arrests in

By Bonchie Gov. Ron DeSantis earned a victory lap on Wednesday after Disney's last-gasp lawsuit against him failed in federal court.  The judge in the case dismissed the much-ballyhooed move against the governor based on a lack of standing and the plaintiff's failure to state a claim. With that, total victory against "The Mouse" has been secured. Another victory for DeSantis and Florida!! 👏👏👏 — Chris Nelson 🇺🇸 🏝 (@ReOpenChris) January 31, 2024 Every step of the way, DeSantis has bested Disney, though some of his critics on the right boasted that this particular lawsuit proved the governor had "lost to Mickey Mouse." That was always ludicrous, and there was always a good chance it would not prevail.

By Tom Knighton No company makes insurance specifically for “gun liability” or anything like that. They do, however, make homeowners and renters insurance that covers things like accidents. None of those policies will cover what happens outside of your property and none of them cover the criminal actions of another, but that hasn’t stopped some anti-gunners from hoping no one will notice. You see, there’s been a push for a while to require some kind of insurance in order to own a firearm. And now it seems  Washington state is joining in the fun . A Washington Senate bill requiring liability insurance for gun owners is providing a new twist on the argument that citizens have the right to bear arms in the state. Senate Bill 5963  would mandate all firearm owners in Washington to acquire and consistently maintain a residential dwelling policy and/or insurance policy that covers losses and damages resulting from the accidental discharge of a firearm. (The bill can be viewed  here .) Re

By Cristina Laila Conservative watchdog group America First Legal unearthed a secret Obama memo that could torpedo Jack Smith’s claims that President Trump didn’t have the authority to possess or retain classified documents. In June Jack Smith  indicted  Trump on 37 federal counts for storing classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago residence. Trump was charged in a federal court in Florida with 31 counts of willful retention of national defense information and 6 other process crimes stemming from his conversations with his lawyer. In July Jack Smith hit Trump with 3 additional charges in a  superseding indictment  in the investigation into classified documents stored at Mar-a-Lago. Last week AFL  filed a FOIA request  against the Defense Department for more information on a secretive committee created by Barack Obama In 2014 Obama created the secretive Presidential Information Technology Committee (PITC) after Russian hackers breached the Executive Office of the Presi

By Joseph Mackinnon Hundreds of statues of historical and religious significance have been toppled throughout the United States in recent years. Rather than stop the iconoclasts responsible, government officials have in many cases  rewarded them  — at least when they were not themselves  directly responsible . However, it became clear this week that the powers that be still hold some things sacred: abortion clinics and satanic idols. Within hours of a federal court finding six  more  pro-life activists guilty of peacefully demonstrating inside an infamous late-term abortion clinic, Christian Navy veteran Michael Cassidy was charged with a hate crime Tuesday for  toppling a satanic statute last year at the Iowa Capitol . The Polk County Attorney's Office  indicated  that Cassidy's admission that he "destroyed the property because of the victim's religion" prompted the decision to increase Cassidy's previous misdemeanor charge to a class D felony. What's

By Frank Bergman Democrat Rep. Shiela Jackson Lee (D-TX) has provoked a backlash after she blasted Republicans for impeaching a member of President Joe Biden’s administration. Jackson Lee was standing up for Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on Tuesday. She scolded the GOP, saying on social media that impeachment should not be “used for revenge.” The House Homeland Security Committee met Tuesday to  advance  two articles of impeachment against Mayorkas. They accuse the DHS chief of refusing to follow immigration law and of breaching the public’s trust. A vote is expected to take place later in the day, and will likely fall on party lines, moving the articles to a House vote at a future date. While Republican committee members continued their assault against Mayorkas, Jackson Lee turned to social media to express her stance on the matter. “Impeachment is not meant as a tool to be used for revenge. #RevengeImpeachment,” Jac

By Nick Arama How do you know that it's election time?  Joe Biden is finally doing something about the border crisis. Not anything substantive to fix the issues, mind you, not that. He claims he doesn't have the power to do that. He's trying to shift the blame for the problem he created and has denied for three years until this month, to the Republicans, now that the election is upon us and his handlers realize it's an important issue to the American people. But he's also discovered something else with election time. He's discovered how important Ohio is and how he's losing in the polls to former President Donald Trump there, with the last RCP average  having him up by 10 points . So now, we're finally hearing Joe Biden make an announcement about getting around to going to East Palestine, Ohio to visit the residents there. February 3 would be a year since the train derailment there and concerns about any environmental damage to the area and illnesses

By Tyler Durden Russell Brand flew too close to the sun, it would seem. Just as the popular British comedian was gaining massive attention for confronting global authoritarianism, he was hit with an onslaught of sexual allegations by anonymous accusers, which were amplified throughout the mainstream media. Brand, known for his left-leaning ideology, articulate critique of the war in Ukraine, and the history of NATO leading up to said war, drew a  clandestine 'shadow campaign'  against him, which according to Tucker Carlson, "began with governments, not private organizations, but governments, their Intel services and their policy makers."  Brand was even attacked "as a Chinese propagandist"  for his views on Ukraine. " I've never been to China . I don't purport to understand China, certainly don't advocate for Chinese policy," Brand told Carlson, who suggested that the 'Chinese propagandist' allegations were nothing more than
