Sputnik International https://sputniknews.com/science/202010171080803468-asteroid-the-size-of-big-ben-approaching-earth-says-nasa/ At the end of the 20th century NASA launched the Near-Earth Object Programme, aimed at finding and tracking the movement of celestial objects whose orbits could bring them into close proximity to our planet. The space agency so far has found an estimated 25,000 NEOs to date. Ladies and Gentlemen, don’t get too comfortable, because 2020 isn’t […]
This week, the Filecoin mainnet finally went live. This is huge news, not only because of the anticipation following Filecoin’s large token offering in 2017, but because creating a vibrant ecosystem of decentralized cloud offerings is an important step in the maturation of the cloud. I suspect my feelings on this development may surprise a few people, given that it means a high-profile organization is entering […]

Earlier in the day, Netanyahu announced a new three-week […]
It’s clear enough that Ben Shapiro and Republican candidate James P. Bradley’s puritanical pearl clutching over Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion’s (censored!) music video “WAP,” which stands for Wet-Ass Pussy, is largely irrelevant. Shapiro’s and Bradley’s statements decrying the explicit message of the song and the (un)dress in the video constitute the kind of performative moral panics that are so baldly opportunistic as to render […]
Pro-Trump cartoonist Ben Garrison is suing the Anti-Defamation League for… defamation. Garrison alleges in his suit that when the famed Jewish non-governmental organization called one of his cartoons about wealthy Democratic financier George Soros anti-Semitic, it cost him “embarrassment, humiliation, mental suffering, anguish, injury to his name and professional reputation,” as well as an invitation to a Trump White House event. The lawsuit is the latest […]
“They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.” – Benjamin Franklin July 4th is around the corner and you may be wondering why Canada is not a part of this celebration. If you were living in the time of Benjamin Franklin, it would have appeared in all likelihood that Canada was most certainly going to be […]
Ben Stiller had no idea he was casting a future president when he grabbed Donald Trump and Melania for a quick cameo in Zoolander. But Trump apparently never forgot about it, Stiller tells Molly Jong-Fast, Rick Wilson, and Matt Wilstein in the latest episode of The New Abnormal. Stiller recalls how Trump even derailed an interview during the last campaign to talk about Zoolander 2. Trump […]
Ben & Jerry’s ice cream jumped on the Black Lives Matter bandwagon in 2016 and has lashed out at the Trump Administration over the years. In 2018, Ben & Jerry’s launched a “Pecan Resist” campaign and released a limited edition ice cream flavor to ‘resist oppression and fight injustice.’ “Ben & Jerry’s feels that it cannot be silent in the face of President Trump’s policies that […]
Helen Buyniski is an American journalist and political commentator at RT. Follow her on Twitter @velocirapture23 B&G Foods has retired the black ‘chef’ mascot who once graced its Cream of Wheat packaging, the latest character to get the axe as corporations realize they can score easy social-justice points by axing images of nonwhite people. Announcing the packaging change in the kind of self-flagellating press release that has […]
During an appearance with Martha MacCallum on Fox News Wednesday night, Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson accidentally made the exact opposite argument of the one he was trying to make. After once again defending the police officers who have now been charged with the killing of Rayshard Brooks, saying there was “wrong on both sides,” Carson addressed the larger debate over “systemic racism” in […]
In the weeks since the Minneapolis police killed George Floyd—an unarmed, restrained Black man—in broad daylight, as he begged for his life, there has been a sort of cultural atonement for the myriad ways white power structures have routinely exploited people of color. Some white folks have resigned; other have joined book clubs; and Hollywood, never to be outdone in the performative allyship department, recorded a […]
Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace opened his interview this weekend with Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson by asking about the “terrible incident” in Atlanta that ended with the fatal police shooting of 27-year-old Rayshard Brooks after he was found sleeping in his car. As Wallace put it, Brooks was “clearly resisting arrest” when he apparently grabbed one of the officer’s Tasers and ran […]
Another slew of documents were released last Friday by the FBI related to corrupt activities in the Obama Administration. Emails between former Obama Deputy National Security Advisor, Ben Rhodes, and Obama’s former Deputy Assistant to the President and National Security Advisor to U.S. Vice President Joe Biden, Jake Sullivan, show the two bragging about how corrupt and dishonest they were. The FBI released more documents related […]
The nationwide demonstrations for racial justice in the wake of George Floyd’s death have attracted hundreds of thousands of people to the streets—including some surprises, like Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT), who joined a march in Washington last Sunday. But don’t expect to see Ben Carson out there anytime soon. In an interview with The Daily Beast on Monday, the Secretary for the Department of Housing and […]
CNN anchor Jake Tapper repeatedly pressed Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson on Sunday over his boss President Donald Trump amplifying right-wing attacks on George Floyd’s character while the nation is gripped in social unrest over racism and police brutality. As large protests continued to take place across the country over Floyd’s death at the hands of Minneapolis police, the president retweeted a clip on […]
What inspired you to create this cocktail? “The inspiration came from wanting to create something that highlighted the smooth texture and fresh vegetal notes of Jose Cuervo® Tradicional® Plata Tequila, while keeping the cocktail simple and refreshing like a Margarita, but without the use of citrus.” When would you serve this drink? “I would serve this cocktail on a beautiful sunny day with nothing but relaxation […]
Jerry Stiller had already built a career to be proud of before he joined Seinfeld as Frank Costanza, father to Jason Alexander’s George Costanza. But for most comedy fans, that grumpy dad character has become his greatest legacy. And Stiller’s son, Ben Stiller, is pretty sure he’d be fine with that. In a heartwarming interview with The New Yorker, days after the senior Stiller’s death at […]
Ben and Tina Garrison are the creators of both commercial info-graphics that explain very complex topics in clear illustrated form, and of the greatest set of cartoons on the Deep State and its ways and means that we have ever seen. President Donald Trump is a fan. They have been ruthlessly attacked by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), including actions that are criminally and civilly liable […]
