Former Sen. Corker: 'Never ever,
ever allow someone like President
Trump to serve again'

Now is the time, says former U.S. Sen. Bob Corker, for the Republican Party to transform to survive. A day after the House of Representatives voted to impeach President Donald Trump for the second time, Corker told Knox News the party must rid itself of the Trumpism that has taken over the GOP. “Look, there's no one that feels more strongly about the fact that Republicans ought to celebrate some of the policy gains that have occurred,” he said, “but never ever, ever allow someone like President Trump to serve again, certainly to become the Republican nominee or be president of the

immigrants who fled from refrigerated
truck, Texas sheriff says 4 replies
A massive search was underway Friday after more than 100 undocumented immigrants jumped out of a refrigerated truck and fled into the woods in sub-freezing weather, Texas authorities said. The incident happened Thursday evening as Bexar County deputies were investigating a report of people running out of air inside a truck that was smuggling immigrants through the U.S.-Mexico border. When deputies arrived at the San Antonio-area gas station where the vehicle was parked, “a large crowd of people poured out of the truck and ran to the woods,” Sheriff Javier Salazar said. About 50 of them were located and found to be
Cadbury is getting creamed by critics on social media, who say the British candy company is “selling sex to children.” A new commercial to celebrate the iconic Cadbury Creme Egg’s 50th anniversary—happy birthday, you delectable confection!—and promote the chocolatier’s annual Easter lineup, has scandalized fans with its cheeky message. “It’s the Creme Egg Golden Goobilee,” a voiceover proclaims, kicking off a montage of whimsical scenes depicting the many unique ways one can eat a Cadbury Creme Egg.(Snip)“Lickers, let loose … Discreaters, come out of your shell,” the voice continues.
But it’s the money shot at the end of the video
A Minnesota husband and wife accused in connection with setting fire to a St. Paul school during rioting in the Twin Cities last summer have been caught hiding out in Mexico and brought back to the United States, federal authorities say. Jose A. Felan Jr. and Mena Dyaha Yousif, both of Rochester, appeared Wednesday in U.S. District Court in San Diego on charges related to the torching of two stores and Gordon Parks High School on University Avenue on May 28 during the unrest days after the death of George Floyd while in police custody in south Minneapolis. Felan, 34, and Yousif, 22,
Cops on the front lines of a spike in subway crime are taking a beating, NYPD Transit Chief Kathleen O’Reilly said Thursday. The NYPD reported 42 felony assaults in the subway throughout January—and 15 of the victims were police officers. That’s three times the number of subway cops who were assaulted in January 2019, O’Reilly said.(Snip) O’Reilly said the bulk of the recent cop assaults happened while officers attempted to make arrests. She said another attack earlier this week highlighted the problems underground. “On Tuesday, two of my officers were spat on, punched and kicked when they confronted a man smoking
Kamala Harris' stepdaughter Ella Emhoff has appeared in her first designer fashion show, just three weeks after it was announced that she had signed with IMG Models. The 21-year-old—who is the daughter of Harris' husband, Doug Emhoff, and his first wife, Kerstin—had turned the heads of fashion fans at President Joe Biden's inauguration on on January 20, where she wore an embellished Miu Miu coat. (Snip) 'It's not really about shape, size or gender any more,' said Ivan Bart, the president of IMG Models. 'Ella communicates this moment in time. There's a cheekiness and a joy she exudes.'
Mayor de Blasio’s decision to paint “Black Lives Matter” on public streets doesn’t mean a pro-Donald Trump group can post its own message on the pavement, a judge ruled Thursday. Manhattan Federal Judge Lorna Schofield ruled that “Black Lives Matter” painted on Fifth Ave. outside Trump Tower and other streets over the summer constituted speech by government—and that the city’s decision to paint those words did not give others the right to paint messages of their own. That meant that the Virginia-based Women for America First did not have the right to paint: “Engaging, Inspiring and Empowering Women to Make a Difference!”
New York City health officials issued new guidance Thursday to prevent the spread of coronavirus—and its growing number of variants—urging people to wear two masks now, instead of just one. The new recommendations came from both Mayor de Blasio and city Health Commissioner Dr. Dave Chokshi amid growing concerns over more contagious coronavirus mutations. “Of all the things that we’ve learned in this crisis, maybe the most profound is the power of a mask,” de Blasio said at his Thursday morning press briefing.(Snip) The city’s recommendation comes several days after the Centers for Disease and Control issued similar guidelines
Washington—University of California faculty delighted at the death of conservative radio legend Rush Limbaugh hours after his passing Wednesday, calling him a “one-man hate industry” in an email pitching themselves as “Rush Limbaugh experts” for media interviews. Three professors from the University of California, Riverside appeared to celebrate Limbaugh’s death after he lost his battle with lung cancer at age 70, claiming that “America is objectively a better place without Rush in it.” “For decades, Rush Limbaugh made millions trafficking in racism, sexism, and xenophobia,” creative writing professor and former CNN employee Reza Aslan said in the email distributed by the university’s PR department
Texas Senator Ted Cruz sparked a flurry of memes on Thursday after being caught flying to Cancun for a Mexican vacation as his state is suffering through one of the worst winter storms and power outages in years.
The storm has caused a major energy crisis, after as many as 4.4million Texans were left without power thanks to a bungled response from its energy distributor. As of Thursday afternoon, 500,000 are stil without power as stores run out of food.(Snip) Another meme from the Lincoln Project, a Republican political action committee that has targeted Cruz in recent weeks, joked that the senator
Nielsen Media Research has added a new dimension to its systems of tracking TV programming and the viewers who are tuning in. The organization has launched Gracenote Inclusion Analytics, a new division set to deliver “unprecedented visibility into the gender, race, ethnicity and sexual orientation of talent appearing in TV programming and the audiences watching it,” the company said in a statement released Thursday. “The new solution empowers content creators, owners, distributors and advertisers with much-needed data around on-screen diversity and representation to enable more inclusive content,” Nielsen said. The new company will “accelerate diversity transformation in Hollywood,” the company noted.
A British-Nigerian actress who was fired from a U.K. revival of “The Color Purple” over past homophobic comments—and later sued a theater and her former agents—has lost her legal battle. Seyi Omooba was cast to play the leading role in the celebrated musical at the Curve Theatre in Leicester, England, in 2019. Shortly after producers announced her as Celie—an African-American woman living in the South in the early 20th century who develops a romantic and sexual relationship with another woman—anti-LGBTQ comments she had posted on social media in 2014 became public. “I do not believe you can be born gay,
Two suspects sought in the shooting of a movie-goer who shushed them in an Atlanta theater have been arrested, police said. Camyrn King, 20, and Yvonne Crawford, 22, were arrested in Indiana by the US Marshals Service for allegedly shooting a woman in the shoulder after she asked them to quiet down inside an AMC theater in Atlanta in January, police said Wednesday.
The two women, who were charged with aggravated assault and possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime, will be extradited back to Atlanta, department officials said.(Snip) The victim, Rickell Etheridge, 22, told cops she was

Democrats in the House of Representatives have introduced legislation that would prevent former President Donald Trump from having his name displayed on federal projects, buildings, statues, lands, or other type of commemoration.(Snip) The bill specifically prevents federal funds from being used to “create or display any symbol, monument, or statue commemorating any former President that has been twice impeached by the House of Representatives,” including “any highway, park, subway, Federal building, military installation, street, or other Federal property.” The bill also prevents Trump from being buried at Arlington National Cemetery.
On Tuesday night, Joe Biden not only said that white supremacy is the “greatest domestic terror” threat in the US, but he blamed military vets and former police officers for it’s “growth”.Biden’s incredible remarks came in response to one of the carefully selected questions during the event that served as an infomercial for far-left radicalism on CNN.The nation’s 46th president, whose calls for “unity” are little more than hot air, cast an aura of distrust over the veterans and law enforcement by asserting that they were a driving force behind the “white supremacist” growth in America.
At least 30 Taliban members died after an explosive device detonated during a bomb-making tutorial in Afghanistan’s northern Balkh province over the weekend, the Defense Post reported on Tuesday.
A group of Taliban jihadists gathered at a mosque in the village of Qultaq on February 13 to receive training on how to assemble bombs and improvised explosive devices (IED). An explosive device accidentally detonated, killing at least “30 Taliban fighters including six foreign nationals who were expert mine makers,” according to the Afghan Army’s 209th Shaheen Corps, which confirmed the deadly blast in a statement released Saturday.

President Donald Trump turned down his former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley after she requested a meeting at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, according to a report.
Politico’s Playbook reported details of the meeting request, citing a “source familiar” with the incident.
Haley criticized Trump extensively in a Politico magazine article, even suggesting that his political relevance was over.
“I don’t think he’s going to be in the picture. I don’t think he can. He’s fallen so far,” she said. “We need to acknowledge he let us down. He went down a path he shouldn’t have, and we shouldn’t have followed him.”
“I don’t think he’s going to be in the picture. I don’t think he can. He’s fallen so far.” Thus spoke Nikki Haley -- former South Carolina governor, former ambassador to the UN, and now presidential aspirant -- exposing once again her self-serving bona fides. In denigrating Donald Trump, the establishment Republican ended up revealing to Trump’s loyal base of 75-80 million supporters just how much she is motivated by opportunism. Also, just how out of touch she is with the rank and file.
Haley’s betrayal of President Trump took the form of a forceful condemnation: “We need to acknowledge he let us down.

FEMA has delivered only 60 generators to assist Texas residents, even though hundreds of thousands remain without power for the sixth day in a row.
President Joe Biden’s homeland security advisor Liz Sherwood-Randall said Thursday that FEMA had sent 60 generators to assist Texas localities without power.
“Specifically, in Texas [FEMA] has made 60 generators and fuel available to support critical sites like hospitals and water facilities,” Sherwood-Randall said during the White House press briefing, even as she acknowledged that 600,000 people in the state of Texas remain without power.
Earlier in the week, as many as eight million residents in the south-central part of the country

Six Capitol Police officers have been suspended and 29 others are currently under investigation for their conduct during the violent insurrection in Washington DC on January 6, officials have announced. The suspensions and investigations come as part of an internal probe at the Capitol Police Department, under the direction of Acting Chief Yogananda Pittman. Among those suspended is a cop who was filmed posing for selfies with rioters inside the Capitol, Rep. Tim Ryan, a Democrat from Ohio, previously confirmed.
Sen. Ted Cruz acknowledged Thursday that he flew to Mexico with his family even as his state reels from a historic storm that has left hundreds of thousands of people without power and safe drinking water, saying he made the trip to "be a good dad." The Republican lawmaker faced backlash after initial reports emerged on social media that he had jetsetted to Cancun despite the widespread crisis in Texas, but he defended himself in a statement Thursday afternoon saying it was a trip for his two daughters, Caroline and Catherine, and their friends.

Facebook announced Thursday it will now debunk common myths about climate change, further leaning into the “arbiter of truth” role that the company once renounced. The social media giant said it is adding a section to its climate change information hub that will features facts with accurate information about misconceptions and falsehoods. This will include the fact that polar bear populations are declining because of global warming, as well as the fact that too much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere harms plant life. The company said it plans to rely on experts from George Mason University, the Yale Program on
