As small businesses complain that it has never been harder for them to hire workers according to a recent NFIB survey, many are facing growing pressure to survive. As the American economy continues to reopen, some fear it might not happen soon enough to save thousands of small businesses. Data from Alignable’s June Revenue Poll shows that 35% of all small business owners are still at risk of closing permanently by the end of the summer.

The issuance of an arrest warrant against Tunisian blogger Salim Al-Jabali by the military prosecution after he criticised President Kais Saied has triggered a wave of condemnation among political parties and civil society activists, who categorically reject the referral of civilians to military courts. Bloggers have warned Saied of the possibility of facing lawsuits accusing him of abusing his powers when his mandate ends in 2024. They reminded him of his late predecessor, Beji Caid Essebsi, who did not dare to try his critics before military courts and lost a lawsuit against blogger and political activist Imad Deghaij, which had great […]

Surging construction costs to build a new home is not sustainable and is becoming a pain in the arse for homebuilders and prospective homebuyers. From concrete to lumber to copper pipes to paint and even appliances, costs have surged over the past year. Source: Bloomberg The housing boom sparked by the Federal Reserve during the virus pandemic was built on historically low mortgage rates (thanks to Powell) and accelerated by a combination of record-low inventory as city-dwellers moved to rural areas amid the remote-work phenomenon.

(Natural News) Texas Rep. Michael McCaul, a top Republican on the House Committee on Foreign Affairs, on Sunday, May 30, said it is “more likely than not” that SARS-CoV-2 escaped from a laboratory in Wuhan, China. In an interview with Jake Tapper on “State of the Union,” McCaul said the COVID-19 pandemic was the “worst cover-up in human history,” adding that the United States should pull its supply chains out of China as retaliation for Beijing withholding crucial information about the coronavirus pandemic. According to McCaul, pulling supply chains out of China will hurt them economically. “And that would be very punitive in nature.” The […]

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) imposed a three-year pause on funding for “gain-of-function (GOF) experiments involving influenza, SARS, and MERS viruses” from 2014 to 2017, in part to prevent accidental releases of deadly new viruses from laboratories — a pause with potential relevance for understanding today’s ongoing coronavirus outbreak. Suspicions are growing that the virus may have escaped a lab in Wuhan, China, though the scientific consensus last year was that its emergence was “most likely the result of natural selection,” and that “[i]t is improbable that SARS-CoV-2 emerged through laboratory manipulation.” However, scientists have developed the ability to create […]
Authored by Zachary Stieber via The Epoch Times, The Georgia Republican Party on Saturday approved a resolution censuring Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, local media reported. The Georgia GOP during a convention approved a resolution that says Raffensperger, a Republican, failed to perform his duties in “accordance with the laws of the Constitution of the State of Georgia,” WSB-TV reported. The document says the failure stemmed from Raffensperger entering into a settlement agreement with the Democratic Party of Georgia, the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. The agreement saw Raffensperger agree to promote and enforce regulations regarding prompt notification if a mail-in ballot was rejected […]

It doesn't take a genius to see that the failing Zionist project called Israel is coming apart at the seams. It was a genius, though, who predicted the demise of the fledgling state when he was asked to help raise funds for its terrorist cells. Ten years before the state declared its "independence" in 1948 on land stolen from the people of Palestine, Albert Einstein described the proposed creation of Israel as something which conflicted with "the essential nature of Judaism." Having fled Hitler's Germany and eventually becoming a US citizen, Einstein needed no lessons in what fascism looked like. One […]
As has become clear in recent weeks, the establishment media and Silicon Valley Masters of the Universe were never particularly interested in doing accurate reporting on the COVID-19 pandemic. As I document in my new bestselling book, Breaking the News: Exposing the Establishment Media’s Hidden Deals and Secret Corruption, the press sought to turn the virus into “God’s gift to the left” (that’s Jane Fonda’s terminology, not mine), pushing a narrative that we are all victims of the Trump Virus and the former president’s supposed incompetence. The only solution, we were told, was a massive expansion of government and more corporate […]

At the time of writing, there is still uncertainty about a new government being formed in Israel. Current and perhaps soon-to-be former Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is panicking. The Biden administration has told the Israeli defence minister to make sure that he doesn't launch missile strikes against Iran's nuclear programme in an effort to block a Lapid-Bennett coalition government.

MANCHIN: Yes. WALLACE: Which would be a major voting reform bill. You say it’s too broad and too partisan. And, instead, you support basically […]

The Anonymous movement – famous for taking on such “untouchable” targets at the Church of Scientology – may now be directing its ire toward Elon Musk. In what could be a PR nightmare on steroids, the collective of anonymous activists have officially “called for war” against Musk for “manipulating cryptocurrencies, among other alleged sins,” RT reported on Sunday. On a Twitter feed with over 5.8 million followers, the @YourAnonCentral account, which has been used for Anonymous news in the past, told Elon Musk in a video: “You may think you are the smartest person in the room, but now you have met […]
Things didn’t go Ariane Lipski’s way in the UFC’s latest event in Las Vegas on Saturday night, but the stunning Brazilian MMA star certainly isn’t letting defeat wipe the smile off her bloodstained face. Lipski came up short in a quite literally bruising encounter with De La Rosa, after the Texan fighter found success in repeatedly taking Lipski to the mat before unleashing fierce barrages of elbows and punches which opened several streaking gashes on her face. After some prolonged punishment, referee Keith Peterson stepped in to call off the fight with around 30 seconds left in the second round, handing ‘The […]
(Natural News) A recent report produced by non-governmental organizations (NGOs) Somo and Arisa has implicated international retailers Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Ikea and Next for allegedly benefiting from forced labor at spinning mills in India. “In some cases, Somo and Arisa found links between the investigated mills and these international companies.

Both the mother and the child are healthy and are settling in at home, a spokesperson for the royal couple said in a statement on Sunday. Source link
The announcement of the birth of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s second child today is, of course, primarily an intensely private moment of celebration for Harry, Meghan and their son, Archie. However, royal births always have many layers of meaning, symbolism and opportunity. This birth is no different. Most obviously, the safe delivery of Meghan and Harry’s daughter Lilibet “Lili” Diana Mountbatten-Windsor (named after her great-grandmother, the queen, as well as her late grandmother Diana, the Princess of Wales)—which will be all the more of a joyful relief to them after Meghan suffered a miscarriage last year—represents an absolutely pivotal opportunity […]

Elections are generally meant to be competitive affairs, with candidates and political parties vying for the public's attention over the weeks and months prior to voting. Whilst not all elections are close run affairs, there should be a sense of competition, uncertainty even. When an election is, however, like a football match where the referees are biased; most of your players are banned from playing and in any case can't train before the match; the opposing team starts with a 5-0 advantage; and the playing field is literally tilted towards your opponents, this is a serious issue. It is fair to […]
Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” the administration will continue to push for a bipartisan deal on infrastructure, but “the clock is ticking.” Granholm said, “You know, Jake, this has got to be done soon. Without putting a specific date on it. You noted they talked on Friday. They’re going to talk on Monday. The thing is, it’s just a bit perplexing why the Republicans haven’t moved further on critical pieces. And I’ll just say this. In my world, in the energy space, Republicans have pushed for pieces of the energy infrastructure that the president […]
President Donald Trump issued a strong message against China during his speech in North Carolina on Saturday, stating the country is directly responsible for the COVID pandemic. “We should all declare with one unified voice that China must pay. They must pay,” Trump said to the cheering crowd of Republicans. Trump called for China to pay the world $10 trillion to compensate for the economic devastation and wipe out any debts other countries may owe. “All nations should work together to present China a bill for a minimum of $10 trillion to compensate for the damage,” Trump said. “As a first […]
We have written extensively in the past few months (here, here, here, and here) discussing the costs (both fiscally and to freedom) and consequences (both intended and unintended) of the so-called “For The People” Act, it appears at least one Democrat politician has decided that the power grab is too much. In a sweeping op-ed in the Charleston Gazette-Mail, Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) explained why he will vote against the sweeping election reform overhaul bill, putting the fate of the legislation in jeopardy in the evenly split Senate. “I believe that partisan voting legislation will destroy the already weakening binds of […]
Tennis sensation Naomi Osaka has broken her silence after leaving the French Open in a row over her media boycott, taking to her favored platform of Instagram after winning support from high-profile backers including Will Smith. World number two Osaka abruptly fled the tournament on Friday amid a whirlwind of highly public debate, including a fine and threats of bans from future tournaments in a lengthy letter co-signed by all four Grand Slam showpieces on the tennis calendar. Just as the accusations of attention-seeking, bullying, sexism and even racism seemed to escalate, Osaka issued a statement on social media apologizing for […]
(Natural News) The United States Mint delayed pre-sales of its non-circulating silver coins amid a global silver shortage. In a statement on May 27, the bureau said that its supply of silver blanks is not able to keep up with the demand for its coins. “The Mint is being impacted by silver blank shortages among its suppliers. The demand for many of our bullion and numismatic products is at record heights and increasingly outpacing the supply of silver blanks available through our suppliers,” the Mint said in a Facebook post. Silver demand has been rising over the past several months after a decline last year during the height of the […]

Israeli police said yesterday that they had arrested 2,142 Palestinian citizens of Israel filing indictments against 285 of them following protests against Israeli attacks in Jerusalem and the aggression on the besieged Gaza Strip, Anadolu reported. In a statement the police said 614 people were "still behind bars", while the rest had been released. Illegal weapons were seized during search and arrest campaigns, they added. Palestinian citizens of Israel, often called Arab Israelis, constitute about 20 per cent of the number of the country's population. On 24 May, the Legal centre for Arab minority rights in Israel, Adalah, said that the Israeli police […]
COLLEVILLE-SUR-MER, France (AP) – When the sun rises over Omaha Beach, revealing vast stretches of wet sand extending toward distant cliffs, one starts to grasp the immensity of the task faced by Allied soldiers on June 6, 1944, landing on the Nazi-occupied Normandy shore. Several ceremonies were being held Sunday to commemorate the 77th anniversary of the D-Day assault that led to the liberation of France and western Europe from Nazi control, and honour those who fell. “These are the men who enabled liberty to regain a foothold on the European continent, and who in the days and weeks that followed […]
As we move further down the rabbit hole of exactly what in the devil has been going on in China’s ‘bat labs,’ we now turn our attention to one Zhou Yusen – a Chinese military scientist specializing in coronaviruses who collaborated with the Wuhan Institute of Virology’s “Bat Woman,” Zhengli Shi – with at least one project to geneticially manipulate coronaviruses having been funded by three grants from the National Institutes of Heath (NIH) – home to Dr. Anthony Fauci – via US universities, according to documents obtained by The Weekend Australian (ostensibly leaked by Aussie intelligence). The previously undisclosed NIH funding […]

You may have to wait in longer lines to get into that amusement park with the ride that makes you want to vomit. That tiki bar that builds your drinks just the way you like it may have shorter hours this summer. And that restaurant you love in town might have their wait staff serving more than their fair share of irritable customers. That shortage in the service and hospitality world may affect when places are open and what they have to offer—throwing some post-pandemic shade on that hot-vaxxed summer you’ve been planning.

Hundreds of Yemenis in Taiz yesterday protested against corruption and the high cost of living, Anadolu reported. Human rights activist Wafaa Al-Silwi said: "We went out to demonstrate because of the hunger, corruption and suffering we are experiencing in Taiz Governorate," adding: "Enough with corruption. We are dying of hunger, high prices, poverty and disease." Al-Silwi called on the Yemeni government to reform the living conditions in Taiz, curb the deteriorating value of the currency and hold the corrupt accountable. "We will continue our demonstrations until our demands are met. We don't want seats or positions, we just want to live," she added. […]
HBO’s Real Time With Bill Maher host Bill Maher slammed higher education as a “grift” and a “luxury daycare center” staffed with “overpaid babysitters,” on the latest episode broadcast Friday. Maher began his “New Rule” monologue segment by saying that President Joe Biden’s “American Families Plan” is an endorsement of the idea “that the more time humans spend in classrooms, staring at blackboards, the better.” “Liberals see more school the way Republicans see tax cuts — as the answer to everything,” he continued. “We imagine going to college as the way to fight income inequality, but actually, it does the reverse.” “If […]
The Texas legislature has approved a bill that would ban the teaching of concepts associated with Critical Race Theory and “action civics.” The bill has now been sent to Gov. Greg Abbott (R). In an interview with Yahoo News published Friday, Texas state Rep. Steve Toth (R), the primary author of House Bill 3979, said the bill is in keeping with the message of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. “This bill is a direct reflection of the 1964 Civil Rights Act,” Toth said. “It echoes Dr. King’s wish that we should judge people on the content of their character, not their […]
A large fire broke out Saturday night at a steel factory in the southeast city of Zarand in Iran. It’s the latest in a mysterious string of blasts and ‘accidental’ blazes at sensitive sites to beset the Islamic Republic, raising questions of possible Israel sabotage akin to what happened a year ago in the summer of 2020. “The governor of Zarand told the Iranian Fars News Agency that no injuries were caused in the incident and that the incident was under control,” The Jerusalem Post reports. “The incident was reportedly caused by the sudden overflow of molten material in the blast furnace, […]
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has spoken out against hate speech after his political opponents were given extra security detail. A ‘unity’ coalition to oust the PM was met with online hate and protests. “I condemn all kinds of incitement and violence from any side,” Netanyahu said at a meeting of his party, Likud, as quoted by Haaretz newspaper. The PM added that incitement should be distinguished from free speech. Netanyahu’s comment came a day after the head of Israel’s domestic security service Shin Bet warned about the rise of “violent and inciting discourse” on social media in the wake of […]
Amid a second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, Delhi chief Arvind Kejriwal of the Aam Aadmi Party came up with a “ration at home” scheme to ensure people get their essentials delivered to their doorstep instead of going to shops.

Why does the US advocate a free market while doing its utmost to stifle it? The current US-China economic war is a perfect example of this perplexing question. The legacy of Milton Friedman, the founder of America's modern political economy, was a representation of this very dichotomy: the use, misuse and manipulation of the concept of the free market. Through the Chicago School of Economics, whose disciples have proved most consequential in the formation of the US approach to foreign policy, especially in South America, Milton constantly championed the virtues of the free market, emphasising a supposed link between freedom and […]
Over 4o people were shot, five fatally, Friday into Sunday morning across Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s (D) Chicago. The Chicago Sun-Times reports the first shooting fatality occurred just before 7:30 p.m. Friday when a 23-year-old was shot while in a backyard.
