Does the Impossible by Making Herself
Look Even Worse 10 replies
Katie Hill is a woman who has become so bitter over the self-inflicted “throuple” sex scandal that brought her Congressional career to a screeching halt in 2019 that she seems destined to make pretty much everyone hate her, including her defenders on her own side at the rate she’s going.Not content with taking politically convenient cheap shots on social media at conservatives she doesn’t like including former colleagues, and not content with milking her long-expired 15 minutes of fame for all it is (was) worth, Hill is spending her days updating her supporters on how things are going with her pregnancy.But her most recent update is not one you’d expect

He’s intensely focused on the teleprompter,” reported BBC News journalist Tara Mckelvey, who was in the State Dining Room for the speech. Journalist Josh Kruger wrote on Twitter, “Joe Biden’s voice is so low right now he gives Barry White a run for his money.

This committee’s investigation into the violent assault on our Capitol on January 6 is not a game,” she declared during a committee hearing.“When this committee convenes hearings, witnesses will be called to testify under oath.

Getting rid of dinner guests is a challenge for any host, but it’s even harder when your guest is leader of the free world.Former Chancellor George Osborne has revealed that the Queen once asked him to tell Barack Obama to leave a state banquet at Buckingham Palace.‘The Queen came up to me and said: “Will you tell the President it’s late and I want to go to bed,” ’ Osborne recalled to fellow alumni of St Paul’s school. ‘Barack Obama was having a great time, kind of knocking back vodka martinis with his mates, and I was, like: “Oh, my God, I’m going to be the person
It’s not many fourth-graders who can impress the Wolf of Wall Street.But Jordan Belfort — the trader-turned-felon who inspired the Scorsese film — snapped up a painting this week by 10-year-old painter Andres Valencia.

Though Mike Lindell, outspoken patriot and MyPillow CEO, recently did a long-form, sit-down interview with President Trump, he’s not the only one that’s done a compelling interview with President Trump recently.
In fact, Nigel Farage, an outspoken critic of the EU and promoter of Brexit, recently did an interview with President Trump that’s a must-watch video for those that want to see one of the UK’s greatest conservative politicians speak with the man the reinvigorated the American conservative movement.In the two-part interview, which first covers the 2020 election and then covers current events, President Trump makes a number of notable, interesting remarks

Last night, ABC aired its Alec Baldwin interview regarding Halyna Hutchins’s death. It was already old news that Baldwin claims that, while he cocked the gun, he did not pull the trigger. The surprise was his confession that he feels no guilt whatsoever for what happened because it was everybody else’s fault, not his. (snip) ‘I’m just showing. I go, ‘How ‘bout that? Does that work? You see that? Do you see that?’
‘And then she goes, ‘Yeah, that’s good.’
In other words, it was Halyna’s fault that the gun was aimed in her direction.
Baldwin also claims he had no responsibility for there being a live bullet in the gun.
Whoopi Goldberg has implied men have no right to comment on abortions as she slammed Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito Thursday for a remark he made while debating Roe v Wade. 'The fetus has an interest in having a life,' Alito said Wednesday during oral arguments in the case of Dobbs v Jackson Women's Health - where Mississippi is attempting to strike down a lower court's blocking of its 15-week abortion ban. 'And that doesn't change, does it, from the point before viability to the point after viability? There are those who say that the rights of personhood should be considered
Last week Politico published a story about the moderate Democratic group Third Way, specifically their efforts to figure out what went wrong for Dems in Virginia’s most recent election. You may recall that story because one unnamed Democratic strategist offered a memorable assessment of House Democrats’ efforts to pass the BBB bill after the Virginia election: “Too late. We’re f**ked!”
Today, the NY Times published an interview with the democratic pollster who carried out those Virginia focus groups. His name is Bryan Stryker and his memo summing up what he learned from them has apparently spread far and wide among Democrats. He is still trying to sound the alarm

Either Joe Biden’s faulty memory or his lifelong habit of padding his resume was on display Wednesday during a menorah lighting at the White House in celebration of Hanukkah.
(snip)Biden bragged about “the many times” he’d been to Israel, and then decided to alter history and insert himself as an important player in the Six-Day War.
“I have known every — every prime minister well since Golda Meir, including Golda Meir,” Biden said to applause. “And during the Six-Day War, I had an opportunity to — she invited me to come over because I was going to be the liaison between she and the Egyptians about the Suez,
Eighty House Republicans voted with Democrats on Tuesday to pass the Immunization Infrastructure Modernization Act, which if passed by the Senate and signed into law would fund a federal vaccination database. According to the bill, also called H. R. 550, the government would provide $400 million in taxpayer dollars to fund “immunization system data modernization and expansion,” a system otherwise defined as “a confidential, population-based, computerized database that records immunization doses administered by any health care provider to persons within the geographic area covered by that database.” The text specifically outlines an expansion of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Public Health Department capabilities and the
We’ve all heard the slogan “Guns don’t kill people, people kill people,” and human nature seems to bear out that bit of wisdom. The beginning of the book of Genesis recounts the story of Cain and Abel, two brothers who had a fatal falling out long before guns were invented. The only human remains found in the La Brea Tar Pits of Los Angeles belonged to a young woman who seems to have been a homicide victim 9000 years ago, again, long before guns were invented.
Even after the invention of guns, people continue to kill each other with everything from common household implements to exotic poisons to complicated bombs.
Steven Spielberg’s long-awaited remake of Stephen Sondheim’s hit musical, West Side Story, is raising eyebrows after the director decided to release the film without subtitles to help English-speaking audiences follow along with the Spanish dialog.
Spielberg and writer Tony Kushner decided to hew toward authenticity for the scenes involving the Puerto Rican characters and have them speak in Spanish in many of their scenes. However, Spielberg also decided to forego subtitles to help strictly English-speaking audiences understand what the characters are saying in the Spanish-only and mixed Spanish-English scenes, The Blast reported.
Some Spanish-speaking commenters on Twitter were thrilled that Spielberg was excluding English-speakers from understanding the Spanish scenes.
The National Basketball Association (NBA) flexed its social justice muscles this week when the National Basketball Social Justice Coalition released a new video advertising the various causes that the organization will push.

“Say the word!” speaker after speaker implored the crowd. Reparations!” the audience responded loudly each time. Dozens of faith leaders and advocates gathered outside the Statehouse in Trenton for a rally Thursday to continue a more than two-year push for New Jersey to establish a task force to study the history of slavery in the state and consider possible reparations because of it. The demonstrators, organized by the New Jersey Faith Allies for a Reparations Task Force, urged the Democratic-controlled state Legislature to pass the bill (S322) during the lame-duck voting session the began Thursday and ends Jan. 11. “We come here today to demand
The parents of the 15-year-old charged in this week's deadly shooting at Michigan's Oxford High School have been charged with four counts each of homicide involuntary manslaughter.

It is rare for parents to be charged like this, CNN senior legal analyst Elie Honig said.
"What the prosecutor is saying is: Let's look at the parents' responsibility,” (snip) "This is really a new frontier."
James Crumbley bought the gun four days before it was used in the shooting, prosecutor Karen McDonald said Friday at a news conference. Sophomore Ethan Crumbley was with him and later posted
