Trigger-happy Russian President Vladimir Putin stoked concerns Friday when he reportedly took his “nuclear football” to a funeral at a Moscow cathedral. The strongman showed up at the Christ the Savior Cathedral to pay his respects to firebrand ultra-nationalist Vladimir Zhirinovsky, who is said have died of COVID-19. Putin walked in clutching red roses, but what caught the attention of viewers was the apparent “secret nuclear briefcase” in the hands of a man wearing a suit and walking directly behind the Russian leader, the Sun reported.

Fake News! It's a closely guarded secret that the Russian President has two nuclear triggers, and they are hidden away in secret compartments in each of his shoes. If Putin starts taking off his shoes be very concerned. If someone was able to steal Putin's shoes, he would be lost without them! Remember when Khrushchev banged a shoe on the podium at the UN back in the sixties? It scared the living daylites out of other Russian leaders, and that's why Khrushchev was removed. There was only one nuclear trigger back then. The Russians added the second as a failsafe after that.

Vladimir, are you proud of yourself. Firing artillery into civilian apartments, blowing up children, why? Well, I guess that is what great statesmen that want to recover historic empires do.

If he were sane he would be tooling around the Mediterranian Sea on his $900 million dollar super yacht, eating caviar and having fun. His thyroid cancer has driven him crazy, just like it did my mother years ago.

A new record for border encounters was set last month, new data shows, as the Biden administration readies to end the Trump-era pandemic restrictions in a move critics say will result in a surge in illegal crossings from Mexico.Former acting ICE director Tom Homan on Friday night accused Joe Biden of doing 'nothing' to deal with the issue, and pointed out that more people had died making the journey under Biden than any president he could recall.

In addition to being one of the most elite schools in America, Harvard’s apparently also one of the most transgender-friendly.That’s set to become even more effectively true, thanks to a student group called The Harvard Women’s Cabinet.As stated by The Harvard Crimson, the Cabinet is “dedicated to addressing gender issues on campus.”And partnering with the Undergraduate Council, it plans to give student healthcare resources a real boost.Particularly, the bunch aims to assist attendees from “gender minority backgrounds.”That would be, presumably: not men; not women.

In the United States, we have the right to remain silent. That is, unless you are a celebrity, a major corporation, a professional sports league or almost any other public entity when a social-justice panic occurs. Any time the national spotlight lands on alleged racism or sexism or any ism, “silence is violence” and everyone with a platform must say all the right things, even if those things are ridiculous.This is how Disney wound up in a cultural firestorm after a small group of employees demanded the company commit a hair-on-fire attack against Florida’s popular parental-rights legislation.

The Biden administration announced Friday that it would resume selling new oil and gas leases on federal lands – while hiking royalties that go the public when selling leases for extracting fossil fuel reserves in nine states.The Interior Department announced the news Friday afternoon – Good Friday and the start of Passover while Biden is away at Camp David, in a sign of the political sensitivity of the issue. It comes amid successive reports of soaring inflation, although the administration has stressed repeatedly that decisions on leasing primarily impact long-term, rather than short-term supply, and has called on companies to explore for oil and gas on existing leases.

Conservative commentator and former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich, appearing on Just the News’ John Solomon Reports podcast, had some harsh words for Mitch McConnell, who he sees as being too weak and his agenda as being about as bad as that pushed by Pelosi and the Democrats. Speaking on that, Gingrich first sided with a few conservative legislators who have put forth positive visions of America, saying:“I am totally with Kevin McCarthy and with Rick Scott, both of whom have come up with positive ideas.“McCarthy wants to develop a commitment to America. And he’s got, I think, seven different working groups. I was honored to be invited

Twitter’s desperate gambit on Friday to stave off Elon Musk’s bid for a hostile takeover is technically known as a shareholder rights’ plan, but investors call it a “poison pill.” Here’s how it works, and what might happen next:A poison pill allows other shareholders – but not the would-be buyer – to scoop up newly minted shares at a discount, boosting their investments while forcing the target to swallow “economic poison” by having his shares diluted. The move is an unmistakable signal that the board is not interested in the prospective hostile acquiror, despite a potential profit for shareholders. If the maneuver succeeds, shareholders are certain to

New York Times Op-ed on Holy Weekend:
Let’s Get Rid of God

The New York Times published an op-ed Friday that proposes eliminating belief in God — as one of the holiest weekends of the year begins. Titled “In This Time of War, I Propose We Give Up God,” the article claims that God is responsible for “war and violence” and for “oppression and suffering,” and suggests that people stop teaching children about Him. Author Shalom Auslander, who is disillusioned about his upbringing in a religious Jewish community in New York, argues (original emphasis): God, it seems, paints with a wide brush. He paints with a roller. In Egypt, said our rabbi, he even killed first-born cattle.

New York Times columnist and – we’re constantly reminded – Nobel Laureate Paul Krugman says that inflation, which hit another new high this month, will soon abate. Why? Because, he wrote on Tuesday, “Lumber prices have plunged in recent weeks. Prices of industrial metals such as copper are coming down. Prices of used cars are still very high, but their surge has stalled and they may have peaked.” Oh, wait. That was from a column that Krugman wrote in June 2021. [snip] What Krugman actually wrote this Tuesday was that “inflation will probably fall significantly over the next few months.” Why? Because, he now says, oil prices have moderated and retailers are

If so, you would be wrong.
