Gold or Gulag? It’s a question on the minds of many anxious athletes and journalists as the Olympics kick off in Beijing — one made more urgent by the physical removal of a reporter by Chinese officials on live television.“Our correspondent @sjoerddendaas was pulled away from the camera by security guards at 12:00 p.m. live in the NOS Journaal,” tweeted Dutch public broadcaster NOS, Friday. “Unfortunately, this is increasingly becoming a daily reality for journalists in China. He is fine and was able to finish his story a few minutes later.”The not-so-subtle move from the Chinese is further proof that the Beijing Organizing Committee (BOC) meant business

Trump has, somewhat surprisingly, remained largely quiet on the issue of John Durham and his investigation into Russiagate and the hoax cooked up by a bunch of Democrat apparatchiks to try to bring down the Trump Presidency.Now, however, in an interview with Kask Patel of the Epoch Times, Trump had a bit to say about the largely secret probe and what it might find as it digs deeper and deeper into the Russia hoax in the taste of what the Epoch Times plans to release on February 7th.Speaking on the probe, Trump said “I hear there’s a lot coming.”Then, continuing that thought, he said “We’re gonna see what happens.

On January 31, 2022, the Orange County NC School Board held a special meeting, reviewing the books Out of Darkness, Gender Queer, and Lawn Boy. The board voted unanimously to keep these books in the public school libraries. The board then waived the procedure stating the status of the material as indefinitely approved, unable to be challenged after two years per the stated policy. Parents needed to be punished for raising concerns!Towards the end of the meeting, board member Sarah Smylie implied that parental concern is a “distraction” from real work. To imply that parents are only doing this for the sake of “distraction” is incorrect.

The Virginia General Assembly has barred state Delegate Aijalon Cordoza — a black Republican– from joining the assembly’s Black Caucus. In an exclusive interview with Fox News, Cordoza called the move an “insult.” “It really did offend me,” Cordoza said. “It was a spit in the face. This says to me that I’m not black enough to be in the Black Caucus, and that’s an insult.” It calls to mind then-candidate Joe Biden’s now-infamous comment to Charlamagne tha God: “If you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black.”

The boss of CNN’s new parent company said on Friday the network was “the leader in news to the left” – but his communications team soon scrambled to walk back the frank admission, insisting he wasn’t talking about politics.Discovery CEO David Zaslav, whose media giant is set to close its merger with CNN’s owner WarnerMedia this spring, made the surprise remark during a discussion about the network’s future – days after the abrupt resignation of the network’s president, Jeff Zucker.“We have this great entertainment menu, which should keep people in the home, from the kids to the grandparents. Why would they go anywhere else?

Tibetan exiles and supporters of Tibetan freedom gathered outside Chinese embassies, Olympic headquarters, and NBC studios to protest the Beijing Winter Olympics, derided by critics as the “Genocide Games” because the event risks validating Communist China’s brutal suppression of minorities like the Tibetans and Uyghur Muslims. Students for a Free Tibet held a demonstration outside an NBC studio in Connecticut early Friday morning: (Tweet/Video)

Former Vice President Mike Pence delivered a speech in Florida Friday and pushed back against claims from former President Trump and his supporters that he had the ability to use his power to contest the 2020 presidential election. "There are those in our party who believe that as the presiding officer over the joint session of Congress, I possessed unilateral authority to reject electoral college votes," Pence said in the speech to the Federalist Society. "And this week, our former president said I had the right to overturn the election. President Trump is wrong…I had no right to overturn the election."Pence continued,

Whoopi Goldberg's suspension from The View this week is the pinnacle of a years-long habit of making off-color remarks about Jewish people that includes a recipe she wrote for a celebrity cookbook in the 1990s called 'Jewish American Princess Fried Chicken', DailyMail.com can reveal.In 1993, Goldberg - whose real name is Caryn Johnson - submitted the recipe to Cooking in The Litchfield Hills, a charity cookbook comprised of recipes from the well-heeled residents of the leafy Connecticut suburb. DailyMail.com exclusively obtained a copy of the long-forgotten cookbook, where Whoopi's recipe mocking Jewish-American women glaringly stands out

In case you haven’t heard, CNN’s Jeff Zucker is out of a job. He resigned (not by choice) on Wednesday, bringing an end to his nine-year tenure as head of the liberal network. Ostensibly, the reason given was that he failed to disclose an affair with his long-time lieutenant, who is still employed by CNN. But there’s plenty of reason to believe that the story goes much further, (Snip) The network was and is collapsing, after all. Rather, it was that he was protecting the right people, within the network and outside the network.And when it comes to the latter group, it sure seems like the January 6th Committee was

Icy conditions and two major truck wrecks on a Texas interstate left hundreds of drivers trapped in their cars for more than 154hours in below-freezing weather - part of a winter storm that will affect millions nationwide. Officials said the accidents happened early Friday morning on Interstate 10 as an 18-wheeler traveling westbound jackknifed across the interstate near Kerrville, blocking the highway on both sides and backing up the road for miles. A second truck also swerved off the highway and lost control on the icy road. The highway already was congested and moving slowly Thursday night due to icy conditions as temperatures dropped to -5F,

The RNC sure has taken its time dealing with Liz Cheney, the anti-Trump RINO from Wyoming. Though the Wyoming GOP censured her for her collaboration with the left, particularly over her voting to impeach Trump, the RNC itself hasn’t done much to reign in the ridiculous RINO.
Until now, that is. Whether to revive its popularity among disillusioned MAGA voters or because it’s actually furious with Cheney, the RNC’s resolutions committee voted on Thursday to censure Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger. The vote to censure both was unanimous and was precipitated by the involvement of those two in the January 6th Committee, a leftist ploy to make Republicans look bad.
