Joe Rogan Says He Rejected Offers to Interview
Donald Trump: ‘I’m Not a Trump Supporter’
and ‘Won’t Help Him’
Posted By: Dreadnought, 7/6/2022 12:42:45 AM
Joe Rogan revealed on a recent episode of Lex Fridman’s podcast (via Mediaite) that he has turned down multiple offers to host Donald Trump on his popular Spotify podcast, “The Joe Rogan Experience.” The controversial podcast host said he is not a Trump supporter and refuses to support Trump by having him on the show. “The Trump era is also going to be one of the weirder times,” Rogan said. “When people look back historically about the division in this country, he’s such a polarizing figure that so many people felt like they could abandon their own ethics and morals and principles just to attack him and anybody

James Caan, the Academy Award-nominated and self-described “ultra conservative” actor best known for his roles in The Godfather, Misery, and Elf has died, according to a statement on his official Twitter account. He was 82.
“It is with great sadness that we inform you of the passing of Jimmy on the evening of July 6,” the statement read. It did not note a cause of death. The Bronx-born actor appeared in dozens of films — including Brian’s Song, El Dorado, and A Bridge Too Far — during his career, which began in the early 1960s. But Caan’s career-defining role came when he played Sonny Corleone in Francis Ford Coppola’s
Over the past couple of days, mainstream outlets have hosted a number of headlines that should make the Biden administration at best very nervous. The President, overseeing a terrible economy, crisis after crisis, and an outright exodus from his administration, can add open rebellion to his list of woes. As my colleague Nick Arama pointed out yesterday, the Democrats are getting extremely frustrated and are now blaming the Biden White House for the party’s woes come November.
“‘He’s Missing the Boat Here’: Democrats Slam Biden Over Flailing Leadership, Lack of Fight on Guns and Abortion,” wrote Mediaite. “Frustrated Democrats express alarm over Biden’s powerlessness,” stated The Hill. “‘Be absolutely
On July 5, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed the No Patient Left Alone Act to right some of the most egregious wrongs of the COVID-19 pandemic. During the pandemic, hospitals nationwide denied patients visitation, even at the end of their lives. Nursing homes and other long-term care facilities did the same. Closing healthcare facilities to visitation from family is no longer legal in Florida. During the announcement, DeSantis explained, “It [the law] increases patient protections and ensures Florida families have a fundamental right to visit their loved ones receiving care in Florida hospitals, hospices, and long-term care facilities.” It also prevents the facilities from requiring that family members receive
There has been increasing buzz around Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and California Governor Gavin Newsom facing off in the 2024 Presidential election. These two candidates are the polar opposite of each other, and it seems like as Democrats are attempting to ditch Biden, they might move to Newsom in 2024.Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker and Colorado Governor Jared Polis may have an interest in running for President as well, but Newsom is already setting up to be the nominee by running ads in Florida aimed at taking down DeSantis. Following the Newsom ad shown on Fox News in Florida, the Florida Chief Financial Officer and State Fire Marshal
President Biden is finding himself largely powerless to address a spate of setbacks in recent weeks that have sparked alarm among Democrats about the state of the country.
Biden has been dealt blow after blow in recent weeks: The Supreme Court struck down Roe v. Wade’s constitutional right to an abortion; the country is plagued by gun violence, the latest example falling during an Independence Day parade in suburban Chicago; and rising costs for gasoline, food and other goods have frustrated the public for months. In each case, Biden’s hands are largely tied, frustrating Democrats
So goes the Glorious 2024 Hope of Democrats — from the French Laundry frying pan into the LGBTQIA++ fire. Gavin Newsom just aired an ad in Florida lecturing California’s burgeoning ex-pat population in the Sunshine State how much freedom they’re losing, especially in regard to sexual choices and women’s rights. After launching that salvo in clear anticipation of the 2024 election cycle, California’s governor left for vacation– but his office stalled on answering questions as to where he went.
And for good reason, as CalMatters reporter Emily Hoeven discovered. After griping about Florida’s lack of liberty on such matters, Newsom went to Montana for his time off
There’s a podcast up at the NY Times today which attempts to wrestle with what a post-Roe world looks like. Host Jane Coaston and guests Michelle Goldberg (pro-choice) and Ross Douthat (pro-life) spend half an hour arguing over it and the bottom line is that none of them claim to know where the politics go from here because returning this issue to the states means a lot of different outcomes will be happening all at once.
What does come across though is the general outlook of each side of the debate. Goldberg, not surprisingly, feels the overturning of Roe is a gut punch, one which has left her expecting
One man declared himself “furious.” The other was solemn. One insisted that Americans “be angry.” The other touted recent reforms already done.
Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker and President Joe Biden both watched in horror as a mass shooting left seven people dead and wounded dozens more at an Independence Day parade in Highland Park. But their responses in the hours after the July 4 massacre were diametrically different, reflecting not just a divergence in temperaments but of their political approaches to the issue of gun violence in America.
Whereas Pritzker demanded that people make politics of the moment — as grisly as it may be — the president initially
Democrats are in a desperate state, knowing they’re about to get wiped out in November and they’re looking to cast blame.
Many, including more than two dozen lawmakers and political operatives, are talking and blowing the whistle on how bad they think Joe Biden is. They don’t feel that Biden is doing enough to reflect their anger and concerns about things; they want strength and action. But they’re not seeing it.
“Biden’s response … seemed flat to many Democrats. And there is fear the piecemeal [gun safety] bill didn’t just sap momentum to continue addressing gun violence but was already giving cover to Republicans. Following the shooting, they worried
The heads of UK and US security services have made an unprecedented joint appearance to warn of the threat from China.
FBI director Christopher Wray said China was the "biggest long-term threat to our economic and national security" and had interfered in politics, including recent elections.
MI5 head Ken McCallum said his service had more than doubled its work against Chinese activity in the last three years and would be doubling it again.
MI5 is now running seven times as many investigations related to activities of the Chinese Communist Party compared to 2018, he added.
Pat Cipollone, who served as White House counsel to Donald Trump and opposed the former president’s attempts to fight the results of the 2020 election, will reportedly testify before the January 6 committee on Friday.
The planned testimony, first reported on by the New York Times, comes after the committee issued a subpoena to compel Cipollone to appear before it. He is not expected to testify publicly and will sit down for a recorded, transcribed interview, according to the outlet.
Cipollone was at the White House on January 6, 2021 and advised the president against marching towards the Capitol, per testimony from former White House aide
Regular readers know I’m a fan of popcorn movies in general and Marvel movies in particular. Having grown up reading and collecting comics, I still remember the days before digital effects when my friends and I would imagine a future when someone would finally make a decent movie based on a Marvel property.
The early days of superhero movies, starting with X-Men in 2000 or Blade in 1998 if you prefer, were definitely a mixed bag. If you’ve seen Daredevil, Elektra, any of the Fantastic Four films, the later X-Men films, etc. then you already know that getting the tone right wasn’t easy.

Three raging customers trashed a Manhattan eatery in a caught-on-camera outburst over the weekend that left two employees injured, police said. The wild scene took place at Bel Fries, a fry restaurant on Ludlow Street in the nightlife-centric Lower East Side, on Sunday at 4:10 a.m. and ended with the arrests of three women, according to the NYPD. Shocking video of the mayhem posted to Twitter shows the trio of suspects hurling glass bottles, a metal stool and other items at employees, leaping over the counter, throwing sauce all over the restaurant and destroying a plastic barrier. A crowd of people can be heard cheering
"DOCTOR" Jill is perfectly content to let Joe finish his long career falling apart on television just so she can have everyone in Washington suck up to her while she’s keeping the evil teachers’ unions in bed with the president of the United States.”
It’s important to keep reminding ourselves that we are, in fact, not crazy. After all, we’re living in a time when the seemingly pervasive mainstream media keeps insisting that what we can plainly see with our eyes and hear with our ears isn’t really happening.
Brittney Griner — the WNBA All Star held in Russia on drug charges since February — pleaded guilty in a Moscow-area court Thursday.
“I’d like to plead guilty, your honor,” Griner said, addressing the court in English. “But there was no intent. I didn’t want to break the law.” Griner — who could face up to 10 years in prison under Russian law — said she would like to give further testimony at a later date.
“I need time to prepare,” she said.
She’s not kidding around.
Lorella Palmer, a 22-year-old influencer and style blogger from London, England said she doesn’t want kids for a variety of reasons and she’s tired of people trying to change her mind or call her decision “selfish.” “Kids are just annoying, they annoy me, in every sense of the word. They have no common sense, they can’t drink, they have to go to bed early, they scream, they cry, they annoy me, Palmer told The Mirror this week.
“Every time I see a child, they’ve just got crust round their nose and round their mouth, there’s drool, they’ve got food everywhere and they’ve got sticky fingers.”
Senate Democrats want to pass a $500 billion package that would include major reforms to health care, climate change, and taxes, according to a report.
NBC News reported that Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV), who was primarily responsible for tanking the Build Back Better Act, continues to hold talks with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) on a reconciliation package that would spend $500 billion and raise $1 trillion in revenue.
The package would primarily focus on health care, energy, and taxes. One source told NBC News that the “ceiling” for climate change funding would be capped at $300 billion, making it a significant fixture of the package.
Five weeks ago, shortly after the last mass shooting occurred, I published a two-part series demonstrating the link between taking certain psychiatric medicines and developing violent psychotic behavior, which includes committing mass shootings. Although this idea is commonly viewed as a “conspiracy theory” this label is inappropriate because there is a large amount of evidence showing this does happen, and both the pharmaceutical companies and the FDA know beyond a shadow of a doubt that the link exists. (Snip) As far as I know, Tucker Carlson and Laura Ingraham are the only news hosts on any network who have ever been willing to air content critical of the pharmaceutical industry,
The White House is pushing back against her coach's claim that WNBA player Brittney Griner would be released now from her detainment in Russia if she were a straight man. Asked whether Griner—who is Black, gay and female—is facing a double standard, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre suggested Tuesday that such arguments go against President Joe Biden's many efforts on behalf of minority communities. "This is a president who has put all of the things that you just laid out—the LGBTQ community, women, people of color—he has fought for those communities throughout his career, and
Brace Yourself for the Biden Housing Bust

For many readers, the above title will conjure up memories of the 2008 housing crash caused by the proliferation of subprime mortgages and the subsequent tsunami of defaults. But a better corollary for the coming Biden bust is the Carter crash that occurred three decades earlier. During the final two years of Carter’s term, sales of existing and new homes collapsed because the Fed was forced to raise interest rates sharply to get double-digit inflation under control. This, in turn, produced double-digit mortgage rates that priced millions of potential buyers out of the market.
Kellyanne Conway said former President Donald Trump should drop his son-in-law Jared Kushner if he runs for president again in 2024.
In an interview published Wednesday with The Washington Times, Conway said Kushner was trying to 'wash his hands' of responsibility for the 2020 election loss, while earning billions through his ties to the ex-president.
'There's nobody who's profited more handsomly from Donald Trump's presidency than Jared Kushner,' Conway said.
Conway, who ran Trump's successful 2016 campaign, mocked reports that Kushner was 'done' with politics adding,
Kamala Harris on Tuesday made a ‘surprise’ visit to the scene of the Highland Park, Illinois mass shooting.
22-year-old Bobby Crimo shot 30 people, 7 fatally, at a Highland Park Fourth of July parade on Monday.
Crimo was known to law enforcement before Monday’s mass shooting.
The police were at Crimo’s residence twice – once for a suicide attempt and once to remove knives because of a murder threat to his family.
Americans’ confidence in the Bible’s veracity is at an all-time low, Gallup Inc. reported Wednesday, with just 20% professing a belief that the religious book is the literal word of God. For the first time, more Americans are Scripture doubters than they are believers. Gallup noted that 29% of those surveyed said the Bible is comprised of “fables, legends, history and moral precepts recorded by man.”
Gallup said 49% of those responding took the view that the Bible is “inspired by God” but that not all of the book is “to be taken literally.”(Snip)Lack of confidence in the Bible as God’s word, the polling firm said, could

The World Health Organization on Thursday reported a 77% weekly increase in the number of lab-confirmed monkeypox cases, to more than 6,000 worldwide, and two more deaths in parts of Africa where the virus has circulated for years. Most of the cases were reported in Europe and Africa. The U.N. health agency said the mysterious outbreak continues to mainly affect men who have had sex with men, and that other population groups showed no signs of sustained transmission. WHO said it counted 6,027 laboratory-confirmed cases of monkeypox from 59 countries as of Monday — an increase of 2,614 cases since its
