Pro-Palestinian groups in America have won a famous victory after a three-year legal battle against a lawsuit holding them responsible for an act of terrorism carried out in 1996. A federal court ruled that American Muslims for Palestine (AMP) and Americans for Justice in Palestine (AJP) are not liable for the $156 million in damages sought by Stanley and Joyce Boim. The husband and wife, whose teenage son David Boim was fatally shot in 1996 at a bus stop near Jerusalem, was awarded $156 million in damages in a 2004 legal case under the Anti-Terrorism Act. The Boims attempted to collect […]

Congregants of churches in Colorado can breathe a little easier after a federal court ruled COVID-19 mask mandates and capacity limits unconstitutional. The lawsuit, brought against the state of Colorado by pastors of two Colorado churches, asserted the mandates violated religious freedom, enshrined in the First Amendment of the US Constitution. “The lawsuit calls both the federal government and Colorado leaders into account for their violations of the right to free exercise of religion, among other abuses of power, primarily resulting from Gov. Jared Polis’ COVID-19 related Executive Orders,” said one of the pastors’ attorneys Rebecca Messall. The US district court […]
Late Tuesday night chaos broke out in the Nigerian capital of Lagos as demonstrators calling for an end to police brutality were reportedly fired upon by national soldiers or police attempting to clear the streets. At least one person was killed and one or more others were severely wounded, while dozens more were reported injured as the crowd of about 1,000 fled, according international reports. Amnesty International initially reported fatalities among the protesters while citing “credible but disturbing evidence” that security forces were responsible. The standoff with security forces came during a curfew and as protesters attempted to erect a blockade. It further […]

As the war gets fiercer between Azerbaijan and Armenia over Nagorno-Karabakh, the mountainous region of just 150,000 people in the South Caucasus, Armenia has lost control of territories it regarded as the buffer zone between the land in question and Azerbaijan. The decades-long conflict re-erupted on 27 September and has so far killed more than 700 people, including 13 civilians in an Armenian attack on the city of Ganja. This came only one week after another attack on the city which killed 10 civilians. “Armenia still commits war crimes and massacres civilians,” commented Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu on Twitter. Criticising […]
The French government, which is a part owner of Engie, stepped in to tell Engie’s board of directors to delay, if not outright cancel, any deal because of concerns that U.S. natural gas producers emit too much methane at the West Texas oil and gas fields that will supply gas to the NextDecade plant, said Lorette Philippot, head of private finance campaigns for French environmental group Les Amis de la Terre, a French affiliate of the green group Friends of the Earth that met with French government officials to oppose the deal. “It could still be signed in the coming weeks,” […]
CNN media reporter Brian Stelter lost his temper during a BBC Radio 4 roundtable at the suggestion that mainstream media newsrooms had shown poor ethics and a double standard in their breathless reporting of the “Russia collusion” hoax.

WASHINGTON ― Even an ongoing pandemic can’t stop the U.S. Army’s largest annual conference. The Association of the United States Army held its annual summit virtually this year from Oct. 13-16. Pentagon officials, service leaders and defense industry representatives gathered online to discuss the state of the Army. This included updates for industry, changes for personnel, ideas for future warfare and plans for tech acquisition. As the service ― really, the military as a whole ― pivots from its counterterror mission to great power competition against advanced adversaries, it’s seeking to take a technological leap that will prepare war fighters for […]

Democrats once again blocked the $500 billion Covid-19 relief proposal put forth by the GOP, as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi seeks to have President Donald Trump override his party and accept the $2.2 trillion Democratic bill. In a 51-44 strict party-line vote, the Republican amendment 2652 failed to get the 60 votes required to overcome the filibuster on Wednesday. It would have provided $300 in weekly federal unemployment benefits through the end of the year, $100 billion for reopening schools and funding for more testing and vaccine development. “If this relief does not pass, it will be because Senate Democrats chose […]
(Natural News) The American government was originally intended to be of, by, and for the American people, but under the eight grueling years of the Obama-Biden Presidency, the American government was bastardized by well-connected politicians and their crooked family dealings with foreign governments. The Bidens exchanged favors with Chinese elites, and gave them red carpet treatment at the White House, selling America out as competing nations continued to take advantage of corrupt government officials. In September 2020, Joe Biden appointed Jeff Zients to co-chair the presidential transition task force, which will be responsible for staffing a potential Biden White House. Under […]

When Sen. David Perdue (R-GA) theatrically mocked Democratic vice presidential nominee Kamala Harris’ first name at a rally in front of President Donald Trump and a fired-up crowd last week, it reminded a national audience that there is, in fact, another heated U.S. Senate contest in the battleground state of Georgia. And that race might be just as intense as the Shakespearean blood feud unfolding between Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R-GA) and Rep. Doug Collins (R-GA)—and, at the very least, just as pivotal to the larger battle over control of the U.S. Senate next year. The contest between Perdue, a first-term Republican, […]

(Natural News) Another election cycle, another set of left-wing narratives are being shattered. In 2016, Americans were told that Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton was going to wipe the floor with then-GOP nominee Donald Trump. All of the polling showed that.

Since the outbreak of the coronavirus, the United States has experienced one of the most unprecedented economic interventions in all of its history.

If adopted, the “Secure F-35 Exports Act of 2020” could have far-reaching impact on future sales of the Lockheed Martin fighter jet to other nations in the Middle East. The bill would require the White House to provide a report detailing the technical risks of selling the F-35 to any country that is not a NATO […]

Clad in soft brown cedar, the dome comes complete with a stage designed to host open-air performances with the structure acting as a natural, sculptural backdrop.

Threatening emails. Weird recruitment text messages. A website with an “assault weapon” raffle. In the weeks immediately preceding and following President Donald Trump’s debate-night nod to the Proud Boys, voters have reported a slew of spam messages that claim to come from the far-right paramilitary group. But many or all of those messages are hoaxes, some of which originate from a serial prankster who has previously posed as anti-fascists. The result is a murky, threat-ridden state of affairs with some voters more worried than ever about election security amid Trump’s calls for supporters—including the Proud Boys in particular—to monitor polls. “We […]

Talks between the speaker and White House over a coronavirus relief package have remained at an impasse for months, though Pelosi said Tuesday that she and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin are “on a path” to a deal. But a larger relief agreement has met resistance in the GOP-controlled Senate, where some Republicans have blanched at a multi-trillion dollar price tag. The California Democrat said she has been buoyed by recent progress made between House Democrats and the White House, but several issues remain outstanding with less than two weeks until Election Day. “We’re in a better place than we have been,” […]

Submitted by Chris Argyrople, of Pivot Analytics Paper money is going away in the very near future. Sooner than you realize, paper money will be replaced by a “digital-USD”. Money is already digital. Your bank and brokerage accounts are book entries in a digital database. These book entries are claims that can be exchanged for paper money or paper stock certificates. Governments, including the US government, will be mandating the exchange of all paper money for its digital “upgrade.” Why and when will this happen?

McConnell and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer traded jabs ahead of the vote, with McConnell accusing Democrats of doing Pelosi’s bidding, and Schumer arguing that Republicans only care about confirming Barrett. “If this relief does not pass, it will be because Senate Democrats chose to do Speaker Pelosi’s political dirty work rather than stand up for struggling people,” McConnell said.

A common retort defending Joe Biden after he bragged on camera about bullying Ukraine into firing its top prosecutor or the United States would withhold $1 billion in loan guarantees is that there was an ‘international consensus’ that the prosecutor, Victor Shokin, was corrupt and ‘had to go.’ Biden defenders go further to claim that there was no active investigation into Burisma, the Ukrainian natural gas company which hired Hunter Biden to sit on its board (because his last name is Biden, according to board member Aleksander Kwasniewski). Therefore, Joe Biden was simply carrying out the will of the international community, […]
…by Jonas E. Alexis, VT Editor If you don’t think that Benjamin Netanyahu is worst than a terrorist by now, then think again. He was one of the key exponents behind the Iraq War; in fact, America destroyed Iraq for Israel.[1] The interesting thing is that both Iraq and Afghanistan veterans have been tired of perpetual wars since the beginning of time.[2] One army sergeant, “who was about to be sent to Iraq for his second tour,” declared, “We’re getting maimed for bullshit.”[3] The sad part is that when the maimed are done fighting Zionist wars and then come back home, […]

(Natural News) While it may be argued that continuing to use fluoridate toothpaste and mouthwash is beneficial in helping to prevent dental caries, lacing entire water supplies with the stuff is overtly anti-science, no matter how one dices it.

Democrats and the Biden campaign have been relentless in attacking President Donald Trump and his campaign for continuing to hold large rallies during the coronavirus pandemic.
