A new research report published last Thursday in the journal Current Biology suggests that syphilis, a sexually transmitted disease, may have spread through Europe before Christopher Columbus ever set sail to the Americas in the late 15th century. The most popular hypothesis is that syphilis and other infections caused by varieties of the Treponema pallidum bacterium, including yaws, an infection of the skin, bones and joints, and bejel, a a chronic skin and tissue disease, were brought to Europe from the Americas. However, the recent study, conducted by researchers at the University of Zurich, suggests that Treponema pallidum existed in Europe […]

A London judge has ordered former British spy Christopher Steele to pay thousands of pounds in damages for not verifying the claims he included in his scandalous Russian dossier, which alleged Donald Trump’s ties with Moscow. Steele was taken to court by Mikhail Fridman and Petr Aven, Russian bankers from Alfa Group, who contested one of the key allegations in the paper that they were responsible for delivering “large amounts of illicit cash” to President Vladimir Putin in the 1990s. Justice Mark Warby of the High Court of England and Wales ruled on Wednesday that Steele’s claim against Fridman and Aven was “inaccurate and […]

General Michael Flynn Attorney Sidney Powell joined Lou Dobbs on Wednesday to discuss the stunts by Judge Emmet Sullivan and the crisis of leadership at the FBI. Sidney Powell questioned if FBI Chief Chris Wray is covering up the crimes of his predecessor and the agency. Sidney Powell: Well, he’s been in office an awful long time now, Lou. And he certainly did not produce to the defense the exculpatory evidence regarding General Flynn that’s been in the FBI files for at least three years, or take it to the Attorney General or anything else that we know of. Apparently, it […]

Judge Jeanine went off on FBI Director Chris Wray on Monday accusing him of covering for the deep state which he is a part of. Chris Wray has a lot to hide himself. Wray previously promoted the corrupt DOJ lawyer Andrew Weissmann and pushed to hide exculpatory evidence that exonerated General Michael Flynn. Judge Jeanine Pirro: Well, Sean I have to tell you, you’re actually too good to him when you say he’s basically taking his time. He’s not taking his time, he is resisting. He is no different than the people he is trying to cover for. Sean, I’ve said […]
The denouement of Drive sees Angela White fixed to a cross, her Rubenesque body suspended high above a sea of sweaty, writhing figures. It is an arresting image—one of many comprising this porn epic that, at 3 hours and 29 minutes, clocks in one minute shy of The Irishman. Unlike Scorsese’s decades-spanning crime saga, the film cleaned up at the Oscars (of porn), taking home Best Cinematography and Best Director for its helmer, Kayden Kross. At 34, Kross is the greatest director in porn, having won AVN Director of the Year honors back-to-back. Her oeuvre is marked by its artistry and […]
