Explosive Pennsylvania testimony explains how Leftist money infiltrated election offices in 2020
This evidence should be enough for the Pennsylvania legislature to recognize there is a real problem when private money and private actors collaborate with election officials. The Democrat governor's office in Pennsylvania colluded with left-wing activists to secure millions of dollars in private money to run get-out-the-vote efforts in blue counties in the swing state in 2020, new, explosive testimony revealed. The Pennsylvania legislature heard this testimony, backed up by email evidence, on Tuesday during the first public hearing on two new bills seeking to block private grants. Tuesday's public hearing began with statements by the respective primary sponsors of the bills that seek to ban dark money from elections, with Sen. Lisa Baker speaking in support of Senate Bill 982 and Rep. Eric Nelson encouraging passage of House Bill 2044. Pennsylvania investigative journalist Todd Shepherd then testified at length on the results of his extensive probe into the insertion of private...

George Soros funds 13 radical Democrats running for Congress in 2022
Billionaire Democrat megadonor George Soros and his daughter, Andrea Soros Colombel, are funding candidates that are in favor of defunding the police, such as Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO), according to Fox News. Democrats have attempted to distance themselves from defunding police, but radical Democrats backed by Soros continue to push the Democrat issue. "We should all agree the answer is not to defund the police; it's to fund the police," President Biden controversially stated during the State of the Union. A February poll revealed 75 percent of American voters believe defunding police contributes to soaring crime rates. In October, only 15 percent supported defunding the police, down from 25 percent in 2020.

The Ukrainian conflict is a US/NATO proxy war, but one which Russia is poised to win decisively - Scott Ritter
The West has sown the wind in sanctioning Russia; Russia will not reap the whirlwind, says Scott Ritter in an interview with the Strategic Culture Foundation. Scott Ritter is a former U.S. Marine Corps intelligence officer who has gained international respect for his independence and integrity as a commentator on conflicts and foreign relations. This week, he was banned on the Twitter social media platform for challenging Western claims of a massacre in Bucha, Ukraine, allegedly carried out by Russian troops. Moscow denies the claims, as have other independent analysts who point to evidence that the incident was a false-flag provocation perpetrated by NATO-backed Ukrainian Nazi regiments to undermine Russia internationally and bolster Western objectives. It is a foreboding sign of the times that Ritter should be banned for daring to question dubious narratives. (He was later reinstated following a public outcry against censorship.) In the following interview for Strategic Culture...

Rex Murphy asks 'Will anyone apologize for falsely accusing truckers of attempted arson in Ottawa'
The attempt to burn down an apartment building in Ottawa, which was so widely and wildly heralded during the Freedom Convoy protest, had nothing to do with the truckers This week, we found out that the attempt to burn down an apartment building in Ottawa, which was so widely and wildly heralded during the Freedom Convoy protest, had nothing to do with the truckers. Please let this sink in. At the time, such was the volume of assumption, innuendo and outright allegation that everyone from Nanaimo, B.C., to Nain, N.L., formed the impression that this despicable action, an outrage by any standard, was the work of the truckers. Not true. False. Nothing to do at all with the protesters. It was allegedly the work of two Ottawa miscreants who were working alone.

Ukraine targets & kills civilians, claims Russia did it; US & EU media report the lie
On April 9th, the blazingly brilliant military analyst who blogs anonymously as "Bernhard" at his "Moon of Alabama" site and whose headlines customarily understate what he actually proves, headlined "More Evidence That Ukraine Fired The Missile Which Killed Dozens In Kramatorsk", and he or she supplied there not only ten screen-shots (plus links to many more of them) of the actual weapon that had been used in that bombing against Kramatorsk's train station, but also explained how ridiculously unlikely it is that its trajectory, which he proved had come from an area that definitely was controlled by the Ukrainian government (NOT by Russian forces). However, what is to be provided here will be a historian's take on this very question, which likewise displays manifestly the ridiculousness of the Ukrainian government's accounts of this matter (that it had been an attack by Russia, not by Ukraine). When both the physical evidence and the clearly established historical narrative account...

Space Force releases decades of data on meteor fireballs
An agreement between NASA and the U.S. Space Force recently authorized the public release of decades of data collected by U.S. government sensors on fireball events (large bright meteors also known as bolides) for the benefit of the scientific and planetary defense communities. This action results from collaboration between NASA's Planetary Defense Coordination Office (PDCO) and the U.S. Space Force to continue furthering our nation's efforts in planetary defense, which include finding, tracking, characterizing, and cataloguing near-Earth objects (NEOs). The newly released data is comprised of information on the changing brightness of bolides as they pass through Earth's atmosphere, called light curves, that could enhance the planetary defense community's current ability to model the effects of impacts by larger asteroids that could one day pose a threat to Earth. Bolides, very bright meteors that can even be seen in daylight, are a regular occurrence - on the order of several...

When I asked what my daughter would learn in kindergarten, the Teachers Union sued me
I'm just like any parent — when I enrolled my daughter in kindergarten, I wanted to know what she would learn. In response, our school district bullied, harassed, defamed, evaded, and stonewalled me. Then the teachers union sued me. I left public school because I no longer felt safe but I'm still taking action to get answers. Kindergarten is a precious milestone. Our babies are not babies anymore: They go to school for full days. Parents want to know their children are safe at school, and they want to feel confident that their children are receiving a quality education. I knew many public schools across the country have been politicizing lessons, so I called my principal in the South Kingstown School District in Rhode Island to ask if they teach concepts of Critical Race Theory or gender theory. That question and the events that followed changed my life.

Disney silent on reports it helps employees' kids get 'sex change' procedures through benefits program
The Walt Disney Company is staying silent following reports it helps the children of its employees with sex change procedures through its benefits program. A leaked video shared by Manhattan Institute senior fellow Christopher Rufo Thursday purportedly showed a Disney internal meeting in which a man explained Disney's efforts to help employees "express their gender" at the company. Disney has not publicly addressed its efforts to help employees medically transition their children to the opposite sex following the release of the video, and did not respond to multiple requests for comment from the Daily Caller News Foundation. The man in the video reportedly said employees could work with the company's benefits team to get information about gender transitions for themselves and their children, according to the video.

Microplastics found deep in lungs of living people for first time
Particles discovered in tissue of 11 out of 13 patients undergoing surgery, with polypropylene and PET most common Microplastic pollution has been discovered lodged deep in the lungs of living people for the first time. The particles were found in almost all the samples analysed. The scientists said microplastic pollution was now ubiquitous across the planet, making human exposure unavoidable and meaning "there is an increasing concern regarding the hazards" to health. Samples were taken from tissue removed from 13 patients undergoing surgery and microplastics were found in 11 cases. The most common particles were polypropylene, used in plastic packaging and pipes, and PET, used in bottles. Two previous studies had found microplastics at similarly high rates in lung tissue taken during autopsies.

NJ first-graders to be subjected to gender identity indoctrination in new sex-ed lessons - Governor speaks out against it
Planned sex education lessons for first-graders in New Jersey will include discussions of gender identity — outraging some parents and Republican politicians including potential presidential candidate and former Gov. Chris Christie. A 30-minute lesson called "Pink, Blue and Purple" aims to teach the 6-year-olds to define "gender, gender identity and gender role stereotypes," Fox News reported Friday. It also includes instructions for teachers to tell students that their gender identity is up to them, according to materials reportedly distributed to parents at a Feb. 22 meeting of the Westfield Board of Education and posted online.

Pakistan erupts in protest after US threats lead to ousting of Imran Khan, his party warn they will resign en masse
The political crisis deepens in Pakistan as members of Imran Khan's party threaten to resign en masse a day after he was ousted as prime minister following a vote of no-confidence in parliament. The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), founded by Khan in 1996, nominated former foreign minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi as a prime ministerial candidate on Sunday, saying its members would resign en masse should he lose. "The PTI has decided to resign from the assemblies, (and) this process will start from the National Assembly after the election of the prime minister tomorrow," party spokesman Fawad Chaudhry tweeted in Urdu.

Here's the truth about Russia's so-called 'Filtration Centers'
What CNN is doing amounts to a weaponization of Russia's truly humanitarian policy of providing aid to Ukrainian refugees by misportraying it as something nefarious when it isn't anything of the sort but exactly the complete opposite. Moscow is complying with its international legal responsibilities to such people, which requires money, time, logistics, and personnel. These wouldn't be expended unless Russia truly cared to help those refugees. CNN published a misleading piece on Friday titled "Russia or die: After weeks under Putin's bombs, these Ukrainians were given only one way out" about what it described as that country's so-called "filtration centers" for Ukrainian refugees. The article quotes several people who claim that they were forced to move to that neighboring country against their will. Throughout the process, they were checked for Nazi tattoos and asked various questions to ensure that they aren't undercover agents or posed any other security threat to Russia. After...

Lying Jake Sullivan claims 'intel' indicates plan from 'highest levels' of Russian govt to target civilians
National security advisor Jake Sullivan said U.S. intelligence discovered that "there was a plan from the highest levels of the Russian government to target" civilians in Ukraine. Appearing on ABC's "This Week," Sullivan told host Jon Karl that the "horrifying" images of mass casualties in Ukraine were "downright shocking," but they were "not surprising." He said U.S. intelligence presented the information before the war began. "We, in fact, before the war began, declassified intelligence and presented it indicating that there was a plan from the highest levels of the Russian government to target civilians who oppose the invasion, to cause violence against them," he said. "To organize efforts to brutalize them in order to try to terrorize the population and subjugate it. "So this was something that was planned." Sullivan noted that frustration among Russian soldiers or troops may also contribute to violence against civilians, as they believed they would have a "glorious victory."

Shanghai is flying drones over districts to tell citizens under lockdown to 'curb your soul's desire for freedom' and comply with COVID-19 restrictions
Videos have circulated on Twitter and the Chinese social media platform Weibo of what appears to be a drone hovering in the sky, broadcasting Covid lockdown guidelines to residents under quarantine. One particular clip shows a drone with red, flashing lights hovering above apartment buildings, broadcasting a message loudly. The video's original poster said the clip was taken in a residential district in Shanghai. "Everyone, don't sing songs on your balcony. Songjiang Jiuting Park residents sang a little bit and then there was a drone coming over to say to control the desire for freedom in one's soul," read the poster's caption on the video. In the video, the drone is seen flying over buildings, and a robotic voice broadcasts the message: "Residents of Jiuting. During the pandemic, we request that you strictly abide by COVID-19 restrictions and related guidelines. Control your soul's desire for freedom. Do not open the window or sing.

The war for young minds
The failure to appreciate danger, or the refusal to take seriously the promises of the adversary, are often the result of a deficiency of imagination. We look in shock at the indoctrination - and resulting sexualization - of the young, surprised that a secular progressive movement would go after the softest of minds. We fail to predict the application of evil because we cannot imagine such evil in ourselves. After all, who amongst us would teach students that the family unit is racist and prejudicial, or that religion is homophobic? Or instruct 5 - 7 year olds on "gender identity?" Or provide rainbow flags and buttons to 3rd graders (and instruct those students they must not tell their parents about what was discussed during school pride week)? Or force kids to attend a school-wide pride parade?

Elon Musk will no longer join Twitter Board of Directors
Following Elon Musk's recent acquisition of 9.2% of Twitter and last Tuesday's formal announcement that he would be joining the Board of Directors, Musk has declined the board seat. "Elon Musk has decided not to join our board," wrote CEO Parag Agrawal, adding "We were excited to collaborate and clear about the risks. We also believed that having Elon as a fiduciary of the company where he, like all board members, has to act in the best interests of the company and all our shareholders, was the best path forward." "Elon's appointment to the board was to become officially effective 4/9, but Elon shared that same morning that he will no longer be joining the board. I believe this is for the best. We have and will always value input from our shareholders whether they are on our Board or not."

Elon Musk will no longer join Twitter Board of Directors
Following Elon Musk's recent acquisition of 9.2% of Twitter and last Tuesday's formal announcement that he would be joining the Board of Directors, Musk has declined the board seat. "Elon Musk has decided not to join our board," wrote CEO Parag Agrawal, adding "We were excited to collaborate and clear about the risks. We also believed that having Elon as a fiduciary of the company where he, like all board members, has to act in the best interests of the company and all our shareholders, was the best path forward." "Elon's appointment to the board was to become officially effective 4/9, but Elon shared that same morning that he will no longer be joining the board. I believe this is for the best.

Biden and Modi to hold virtual talks where US will pressure India into taking hardline on Russia over Ukraine
US President Joe Biden is set to hold talks with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday as he presses world leaders to take a hard line against Russia's Ukraine invasion. India's neutral stance in the war has raised concerns in Washington and earned praise from Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, who lauded India this month for judging "the situation in its entirety, not just in a one-sided way." Most recently, India abstained when the UN General Assembly voted on Thursday to suspend Russia from its seat on the 47-member Human Rights Council over allegations that Russian soldiers in Ukraine engaged in rights violations that the US and Ukraine have called war crimes. Comment: Russia requested the opportunity to present evidence that Ukraine was responsible for the Bucha false flag and, in turn, not only was Russia denied, but then a shady resolution was quickly drawn up and Russia was suspended from the UN human rights body; regarding the suspension, China said it had set...

Meteor fireball crosses the sky of Goiás, Brazil causing flash, explosion on April 9
Director of the Southern Pleiades Astronomy Group, Ary Martins, said the meteor moved slowly through the sky at about 80 or 90 km. A video shot in Aparecida de Goiânia by one of the members of the group, Daniel Basile, shows the moment of the phenomenon. "It was an exceptionally bright meteor. It produced two flashes of light, followed by a bang. It is not yet possible to say, but based on the properties, there is a possibility that meteorites, which are smaller parts of it, survived and hit the ground," he said. Goiás was happy about the phenomenon on social networks. "It was the largest and longest fireball I've ever seen. It is very exciting to witness such an event," said a resident of Aparecida de Goiânia. "I was at home. There was lightning in the sky, then a strong explosion like thunder. The phenomenon was very beautiful," said Maycon de Sousa Oliveira, a resident of Anápolis. (Translated by Google)
