  • Trump Rips Alaska GOP Senator Up For Reelection

    Trump Rips Alaska GOP Senator Up For Reelection

    Donald Trump’s time in Mar-a-Lago appears to be one of contemplation. Specifically, the contemplation of a revenge saga that starts deep in the heart of the Republican Party.

    Trump has thoroughly corralled a large portion of the GOP base into his pen, and he’s given them a voice that they hadn’t exercised previously. This enthusiasm has establishment Republicans nervous, as it means they’ll have to court the far-right if they’re seeking national office.

    Also, this means that an ornery Don could cold wreak havoc on the party as a whole anytime between now and 2024…and it appears that he’s chosen now.

    Former President Donald Trump said he would campaign against Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, and blasted her as a “disloyal and very bad Senator” in a statement this weekend.

    “I will not be endorsing, under any circumstances, the failed candidate from the great State of Alaska, Lisa Murkowski,” Trump said in a statement. “She represents her state badly and her country even worse. I do not know where other people will be next year, but I know where I will be – in Alaska campaigning against a disloyal and very bad Senator.”

    “Her vote to advance radical left Democrat Deb Haaland for Secretary of the Interior is yet another example of Murkowski not standing up for Alaska,” he continued.

    Trump’s statement isn’t exactly shocking – he said the same thing in June after Murkowski told reporters she was “struggling” to support the president in his reelection because of how he handled the George Floyd protests.

    If there was any doubt about Trump’s continued influence in the party, it should be put to bed.

  • Fact Checkers Are Struggling To Keep Up With All Of Biden’s Gaffes

    Fact Checkers Are Struggling To Keep Up With All Of Biden’s Gaffes

    Biden has been a disappointment since taking office, dissatisfaction with him is growing on the left and now “fact-checkers” are doing everything to change history.

    The fact-checking website snopes.com is trying to cover Biden for not issuing $2,000 COVID-19 relief checks after he promised to do so. The site used a word salad to claim Biden didn’t mislead voters.

    We all remember in December 2020 when President-elect Joe Biden was campaigning during the Georgia run-off. Biden declared that if voters elected Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock to the Senate he would cut $2,000 relief checks and “put an end to the block in Washington.”

    Below is Snopes rationale to explain Biden didn’t mislead voters about $2,000 checks:

    What’s False

    However, these promises were always made in the context of legislation blocked by the Senate in late December that attempted to raise the per person payment from $600 to $2,000. Because $600 checks were already being distributed by the time Biden and the others entered office, the addition of $1,400 would fulfill the campaign promise of $2,000 per person COVID-19 stimulus payments.

    Next up, the fact-checkers are claiming that frozen windmills had nothing to do with Texas electrical grid issues during a severe winter storm.

    The fact-checking website PolitiFact claims that Fox News host, Tucker Carlson is lying.

    “Unbeknownst to most people, the Green New Deal came to Texas, the power grid in the state became totally reliant on windmills. Then it got cold and the windmills broke because that’s what happens in the Green New Deal,” said Carlson during his show.

    Before we go any further, below is a statement from the Electric Reliability Council of Texas to the Austin American Statesman citing frozen wind farms as the catalyst that started the state’s problems during the storm. The statement was published in a report from the Statesman titled, “Frozen Wind Turbines Hamper Texas Power Output, State’s Electric Grid Operator Says.”

    Wind farms across the state generate up to a combined 25,100 megawatts of energy. But unusually moist winter conditions in West Texas brought on by the weekend’s freezing rain and historically low temperatures have iced many of those wind turbines to a halt.

    As of Sunday morning, those iced turbines comprise 12,000 megawatts of Texas’ installed wind generation capacity.

    Politifact bent over backward claiming that only 10% of the winter energy supply in Texas powers the grid thereby absolving green energy.

    What the left-leaning site left out is that 19% of the city of Austin is powered off wind farms so when the wind turbines failed it was catastrophic for the area and stressed out other energy sources leading to a debacle.

    Twenty-three percent of the State of Texas is powered by wind farms.

  • Microsoft Wants To Do Something Disturbing With Your Dead Relatives

    Microsoft Wants To Do Something Disturbing With Your Dead Relatives

    Sure, we all love the ease and convenience of this new, digital dimension that exists right beside our literal, real-life world.

    This is the parallel universe where we’ve shoved all of our fiscal errands and our shopping. We do our research there. We read reviews of movies and books from a device that lives in our pockets.

    And while it’s certainly nice to not have to ever step foot into a bank again, there are certainly some worrisome possibilities developing within this algorithmically-driven world…and Microsoft appears to be pushing the envelope on creepy.

    Microsoft has been granted a patent that would allow the company to make a chatbot using the personal information of deceased people.

    The patent describes creating a bot based on the “images, voice data, social media posts, electronic messages”, and more personal information.

    “The specific person [who the chat bot represents] may correspond to a past or present entity (or a version thereof), such as a friend, a relative, an acquaintance, a celebrity, a fictional character, a historical figure, a random entity etc”, it goes on to say.

    “The specific person may also correspond to oneself (e.g., the user creating/training the chat bot,” Microsoft also describes – implying that living users could train a digital replacement in the event of their death.

    What’s truly scary to think about is the possibility that social media companies, who likely own every bit of dialogue that you’ve ever had online, could, perhaps without your consent, create chatbots out of your personality in the not-so-distant future.

  • Testing Has Begun On Pill That Will Fight Coronavirus Symptoms

    Testing Has Begun On Pill That Will Fight Coronavirus Symptoms

    A new medication could possibly treat patients who have tested positive for the coronavirus which could mean the beginning of the end of the pandemic, as revealed by Fox News medical contributor Dr. Marc Siegal.

    First-stage testing has already begun on the experimental COVID-19 pill called Molnupiravir, by Merck and Ridgeback Biotherapeutics, and tests are showing some promising signs of effectiveness in reducing symptoms of the virus in patients.

    “It may be the holy grail on this because it was just studied in phase two trials and it literally stopped the virus in its tracks,” he explained. “And there wasn’t any virus found in the patients that were studied.”

    The drug would function as an at-home, five-day treatment, similar to Tamiflu, to stop the virus from reproducing before causing major damage. Siegel said the therapeutic could come to market in as little as four to five months.

    The doctor said even though only 182 patients were studied during testing so far, the pill could still be “very promising” for thousands of people.

    “This might be the future once the vaccine really gets control over the pandemic and we just start seeing isolated cases,” he said. “By then, this drug might be ready and this might be the drug for over the next several months.”

    Siegel predicts the U.S. will be coronavirus-free by the summer, making the Molnupiravir treatment “very helpful” for managing isolated cases. He believes this is the first pill that we can use against COVID as a therapeutic.

  • Donald Trump Is Making A Comeback But Not As President

    Donald Trump Is Making A Comeback But Not As President

    Former President Trump blasted Senator Lisa Murkowski by calling her a “disloyal and very bad Senator” and announced he would be campaigning against her.

    “I will not be endorsing, under any circumstances, the failed candidate from the great State of Alaska, Lisa Murkowski,” said Trump over the weekend. “She represents her state badly and her country even worse. I do not know where other people will be next year, but I know where I will be – in Alaska campaigning against a disloyal and very bad Senator.”

    “Her vote to advance radical left Democrat Deb Haaland for Secretary of the Interior is yet another example of Murkowski not standing up for Alaska,” he said.

    Trump’s statement comes as no surprise as he had said the very same thing last summer after Murkowski admitted she was “struggling” to support the president in his reelection because of how he handled the protests following the death of George Floyd.

    Murkowski was one of seven Republican senators who recently voted to convict Trump on the charge of inciting the riot that shook the capitol on January 6.

    The senator has had some close calls before despite the fact that the Cook Political Report rates Murkowski’s seat as solidly Republican. In 2010 she lost the Republican primary to a Tea Party challenger but would later beat him as a write-in candidate in the general election.

    Trump’s announcement could put him at odds with the National Republican Senatorial Committee. Committee chair Sen. Rick Scott, told “Fox News Sunday” that he will support any incumbent Republican senator against primary challengers, even if that challenge is supported by Donald Trump.

  • These States Are Lifting COVID Restrictions As Cases Continue To Drop

    These States Are Lifting COVID Restrictions As Cases Continue To Drop

    Mississippi and Texas are the latest states to join in announcing that all businesses will be allowed to resume regular operations unrestricted nearly one year after former President Trump declared the pandemic a national emergency.

    Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves called the restrictions put in place for public health were “unprecedented” and should be reversed as soon as possible.

    Starting Wednesday businesses in Mississippi will be allowed to resume full service without any state restrictions and citizens will no longer be subjected to county mask mandates.

    Previously Texas Governor Greg Abbott announced that all businesses will be allowed to fully reopen as of next Wednesday, March 10, as well as repeal the statewide mask mandate on the same day.

    California Governor Gavin Newsom bashed the announcement on Tuesday, calling it “absolutely reckless” in a Twitter post. Newsom has implemented stricter guidance in California’s pandemic response.

    President Biden said that he expects the country will have enough doses of the coronavirus vaccine to distribute to all American adults by the end of May after the FDA granted authorization to Johnson & Johnson for its vaccine.

  • New Poll Shows Devastating Changes To Biden’s Approval Rating

    New Poll Shows Devastating Changes To Biden’s Approval Rating

    A new national poll shows that President Joe Biden’s approval rating has dropped during his first month in the White House.

    A Monmouth University was released showing Biden holding a 51% approval rating, that three points down from America’s approval just one month ago.

    What really hurts the president is his growing disapproval rating of 42%, up from 30% in late January. This rise comes from people’s newly formed opinion of Biden.

    Monmouth University Polling Institute Director Patrick Murry pointed out, “It’s probably not a surprise that Biden’s honeymoon period closed quickly.”

    From Fox News:

    An average of all of the latest national polls that measured Biden’s approval rating – compiled by Real Clear Politics – put’s the president’s numbers at 55% approval and 40% disapproval.

    Ninety-one percent of Democrats questioned in the Monmouth survey approve of Biden’s performance – basically unchanged since January. Eight in 10 Republicans disapprove, a jump of 10 points from a month ago. Independents are divided – with 43% approving and 48% disapproving. That’s a switch from January, when Biden held a 47%-30% approval/disapproval rating with independents.

    The Monmouth survey also points to a drop in approval for Congress.

    Three in 10 surveyed give approve of the job Congress is doing, down from 35% a month ago. Disapproval jumped from 51% in January to 59% now. But Monmouth notes that the January “results were a historical high in eight years of national polling by Monmouth. While the current ratings have declined, they remain on the higher end of the range across which they have fluctuated since 2013.”

    According to the poll, more than 6 out of 10 Americans support the massive $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief bill being considered by Congress.

  • WATCH: Biden Makes No Sense At All As His Mental Health Worsens

    WATCH: Biden Makes No Sense At All As His Mental Health Worsens

    Over the weekend President Biden was in Houston to visit the area severely affected by the recent winter storms.

    Biden struggled during his speech and his verbal mistakes were incredibly disturbing.

    “… and Representatives Shir-Shirley Jackson Lee, Al Greene, Sylvia Garcia, Lizzie Penelley, ugh, uh, excuse me, Pannill, and, ugh, what am I doing here? I’m gonna lose track here,” Biden wondered aloud. Her name is Sheila Jackson Lee… and she’s hardly forgettable. But his remark, “What am I doing here?” was very telling. Of course, we’ve all been wondering that for weeks. What is Joe Biden doing there in the most powerful position in the world?

    As Bonchie over at RedState noted, “there’s a reason his wife has to do joint interviews with him at an unheard-of rate.”

    On Thursday, Vice President Kamala Harris had to remind Biden to pick up his mask after he left it on the podium.

    After receiving a thumbs-up from a double-masked Dr. Anthony Fauci, Harris asked Biden, “Where’s your mask?”

    “My mask!” he said before returning to the podium to retrieve it.

    Biden fought back against questions about his mental abilities from the Trump campaign. “Look, all you gotta do is watch me, and I can hardly wait to compare my cognitive capability to the cognitive capability of the man I’m running against,” he said back in June.

    Meanwhile, at CPAC former President Trump didn’t miss a beat and called out the Biden administration and committed to helping Republicans retake the House.

  • The President’s Virtual Event Feed Is Mysteriously Cut Just Before He Begins Taking Questions

    The President’s Virtual Event Feed Is Mysteriously Cut Just Before He Begins Taking Questions

    The White House raised some concerns when the feed to a virtual event was suddenly cut after President Biden said he would be “happy to take questions” from Democratic lawmakers.

    House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the House Democratic Caucus accompanied Biden as he spoke to lawmakers about COVID relief and the current vaccine rollout. He closed his speech by urging Democrats to help “restore faith” in government.

    Biden then said, “I’d be happy to take questions if that’s what I’m supposed to do, Nance. Whatever you want me to do.”

    Biden appeared to be ready to take questions from lawmakers then there was a short pause from the president before the feed was abruptly cut.

     

    President Biden is facing growing criticism for failing to hold a formal press conference in the six weeks since he took office. On the rare occasion he does take questions they appear to be scripted from pre-selected reporters.

    Watch As Biden’s Mental State Seems To Slip Away

    President Biden’s response to a question from the press after receiving a briefing on the border raised even more questions about his mental state and cognitive decline.

    Biden has come under fire from both sides of the aisle over his controversial immigration plan.

    One reporter asked, “Did you receive a briefing about the border today?”

    Biden responded with just a “Yes.”

    “What did you learn?” the reporter pressed.

    All Biden would say before being rushed away quickly by an aide was, “A lot.”

    https://twitter.com/disclosetv/status/1366866974135975941?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1366866974135975941%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fredrightdaily.com%2Fbiden-response-border-briefing%2F

    Not exactly the confidence you would expect from the leader of the free world.

    Recently during a visit to Texas Biden struggled to get through a speech botching the names of Democrat members of Congress.

    “Representatives, uh, Sheryl— Shirley Jackson Lee,” Biden said, flubbing the name of Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX).
    He continued, “Al Green, Sylvia Garcia, Lizzie Pinneli— excuse me, Pinell, and, uh, what am I doing here?” before looking down at the podium.
    “I’m going to lose track here, and, uh, um— Mayor [Sylvester] Turner, Judge [Lina] Hidalgo, uh, thank you all for welcoming us,” Biden said.

    Even Democrats agree that Biden’s immigration policy is going to cause a crisis at the border.

    Watch this clip from CNN and Rep. Vicente Gonzalez admits Biden’s policy is an accident waiting to happen.

    During a press conference DHS head, Sec. Mayorkas said, “We are not saying don’t come, we’re saying don’t come now because we will be able to deliver a safe and orderly process to them as quickly as possible”
