…by Jonas E. Alexis Paul R.

When his text messages to a woman not his wife leaked last week, Cal Cunningham, the Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate in North Carolina, was immediately thrust into the time-honored cycle of shame, ridicule, evasiveness, and public apology that comes with political scandal.

It was uncomfortable […]

VT: Foxman built the organization, the MEGA billionaires led by gambling boss Shelly Adelson and the Kosher Nostra oligarch/mobsters that rigged the 2000 election, the 2004 election and put Trump in office though he lost the popular vote by not 4 million but closer to 15 million votes. Now he wants to join with VT to damn his own stepchild. OK, this is his chance and […]

A veteran political operative who pioneered an extremely shady electioneering tactic on behalf of some of the nation’s most prominent Republicans is on a new mission—to use that tactic to defeat a Republican president. Steve Goldberg says he’s founded a new super PAC, Express Yourself, that is calling voters in key swing states to ask whether they believe “Jesus Christ would approve or disapprove of the […]
What the fuck did we do to deserve this? Why is our so-called president so entirely batshit crazy? These are questions many, or maybe most Americans try to avoid these days. They shrug, pretend our mad king’s latest excesses and offenses are just an act, or that it will be over soon. They excuse the externalities bearing down on us as fate or bad timing, and […]

Ethereum Classic developers were still licking fresh wounds late last week when yet another 51% attack was launched against their blockchain early Thursday morning.

Five days later, a second 51% attack followed the news that the first had indeed seen […]

The tech billionaire, who has donated massively to vaccine development, has been the subject of conspiracy talk over his role in the coronavirus pandemic. Bill Gates has staunchly denied theories that accused him of being behind the COVID-19 outbreak. The Microsoft founder blamed the spread of the theories on penchant for “titillating” information on social media. Another reason was the sense of uncertainty the virus has […]

Following weeks of nationwide protests over a spate of police killings of Black people, President Donald Trump has claimed that “more white people” actually die at the hands of law enforcement. The president made the comment after appearing to briefly lose it when asked about the hot button topic in a CBS News interview. “Why are African-Americans still dying at the hands of law enforcement in […]

Criticism of the US administration’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic and response to the protests sweeping the country following the death of black man George Floyd in police custody in late May has resulted in President Donald Trump’s poll numbers trending downward lately.

The days of the good old ‘transatlantic partnership’ have passed, Germany’s Foreign Minister Heiko Maas has admitted, adding that even the Democrats returning to power is unlikely to automatically bring those days back. “Anyone, who believes that the transatlantic partnership will once again be what it once was with a Democratic president, underestimates the structural changes,” the minister told German news agency dpa, hinting that relations […]

The Israeli government’s decision to open up the country was way too hasty, believes an expert from the state’s largest healthcare organisation, adding that mistakes could have been avoided if politicians listened to professionals instead of pursuing their own agendas.

The New York Times will seemingly disregard sky-high homicide rates in America’s cities if doing so makes President Donald Trump look bad. To much of the media, the only facts that matter are those that hurt Trump. The US president is known for his bombastic declarations, hyperbole, and generous use of superlatives. In his nearly four years in office, that has provided plenty of material for […]
Health Editor’s Note: With protests, opening up of states and facilities, decreased interest in physical distancing, decrease in mask wearing, increases in coronavirus cases would be expected to be rising. Trump wanting to “slow down testing because too many cases are showing up” is certainly going to keep the U.S. in the running for country with most coronavirus cases and deaths…..Carol WHO reports largest single-day increase […]
