Posted By: Beardo, 1/25/2024 7:38:35 PM
NBCUniversal’s Peacock lost a mind-boggling $2.7 billion in 2023 as the left-wing legacy studio continues to burn through cash at an alarming rate in the Hollywood streaming arms race. Peacock’s subscriber base currently stands at around 30 million — still far behind Netflix, which counts around 80 million domestic subscribers. The 2023 losses are worse than the previous year when Peacock lost $2.5 billion.

Fani Willis may have fired the employee who warned her about mishandling federal funds. But she didn't deny her allegations.
Less than a year into her tenure as Fulton County district attorney, in 2021, Willis met with Amanda Timpson, an employee in the district attorney's office responsible for giving nonviolent juvenile offenders "alternatives to the juvenile court system." During their conversation, a recording of which was reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon, Timpson claimed to Willis that she had been demoted after attempting to stop a top Willis campaign aide from misusing federal grant money meant for a youth gang prevention initiative.

Republican Congresswoman Claudia Tenney nominated Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, citing Trump's role in brokering the 2020 Abraham Accords between Israel, Bahrain and the UAE which aimed to normalize relations. Morocco and Sudan later also signed similar agreements through Trump's efforts. Tenney argued the Accords have not received the recognition they deserve, unlike past Middle East peace deals. Trump has previously received three Nobel Peace Prize nominations for his Middle East work. The winner will be announced in October.
US Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY), who represents the Bronx and Westchester County, espoused conspiracy theories about the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks while serving as a public high school principal, it was revealed this week.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) — kept a blog that claimed World Trade Center building Number 7 was destroyed in a controlled demolition and that hijacked Flight 93 and Flight 77 caused minimal damage and left behind little debris.

Posters featuring a “wheel of power/privilege” were hung in employee spaces in Disneyland, instructing employees that being white, “cisgender male,” and even speaking English means you have “unearned” privilege that your “marginalized” coworkers do not, according to images obtained by The Daily Wire. (snip) The Daily Wire reached out to the Walt Disney Company to ask about the poster and why they are posted. Within hours of reaching out, our source said a manager removed the poster, and sent a photo of the now-empty display cabinet,
A series of sonar images released on Saturday appear to show the wreckage of Amelia Earhart’s plane, which disappeared on July 2, 1937. (snip) Neither her body nor her Lockheed 10-E Electra has ever been found, but a series of sonar images may finally shed light on this mystery.
The team behind Deep Sea Vision said they’ve scanned more than 5,200 miles of seabed in and around the area where Earhart is thought to have disappeared. Now, they claim to have found what appears to be the wreckage of Earhart’s plane.

Brown, is trying to unseat fellow Democrat Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton, (snip) When Brown was on the D.C. council, he was charged with bribery for taking $55,000 in cash payments from undercover FBI investigators who were posed as representatives of a company that attempted to do business with the District.

A sizable majority of the public supports Texas’s construction of a wall along its border with Mexico and feels that President Joe Biden’s efforts to stop it are the first step toward civil war.
In a sobering analysis of the escalating topic, 69% of likely 2024 voters said that they support the border wall and razor-wire fence that Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) has ordered. Among those, a majority, 51%, said they “strongly” back Texas in its fight to stop illegal immigration and the surge of “gotaways” getting past federal border agents.
Someday in the not too distant future, it might no longer be possible to drive a brand-new car faster than 80 mph in California. That's because state senator Scott Wiener earlier this week proposed a new bill that aims to prevent certain new vehicles from going more than 10 mph over the speed limit. (snip) SB 961 that was published Tuesday, (snip) essentially calls for speed governors on new cars and trucks built or sold in California starting with the 2027 model year. These vehicles would be required to have an "intelligent speed limiter system" that electronically prevents the driver from speeding above the aforementioned threshold.
Independent urban legend tracking and fact-checking website Snopes took a huge amount of fire on Saturday after marking a true story about President Joe Biden wearing a hard hat backwards “false” — so much heat that eventually they reversed their own ruling and the story is now marked “true” on the site.
At issue was a photo of Joe Biden wearing a hard hat backwards, which went viral on the right leaning side of social media before garnering enough attention to warrant a Snopes check.
The photo, which shows Biden wearing (a) hard hat backwards, was included in the Snopes article that first called the story false.

Dr. Roy Spencer, a top scientist specializing in climate, wrote a report for Heritage which he summarized on his own web site.
Spencer compared observed warming in the U.S. corn belt during the summer, between 1973 and 2022–a 50-year period–with the warming that was predicted by the major climate models. He found that all of the models yielded more warming than actually occurred, most to an absurd degree.
“An estimated 2,681 news industry jobs were lost through the end of November,” reports the far-left Associated Press.
That’s what you call a good start, reports the far-right John Nolte.
I’ll bet good money that over 90 percent of those who lost their jobs voted for His Fraudulency Joe Biden. So what we have here is another case of people getting what they voted for. Boo hoo.

Things are going to roll out exactly the way they are easily predicted to roll out, as long as people stop pretending. An NBC article highlights South Carolina Congressman James Clyburn as one of the central players in the game of Biden. As the article notes, Clyburn heads into the AME Church network, worried that young black voters might not support the game. The emphasis within the article is essentially correct, but the narrative framework is fraught with pretending.

An anonymous letter reportedly sent to Harvard University this week alleges that the school’s DEI head committed multiple instances of plagiarism throughout her academic career, even plagiarizing from one of her husband’s academic works.
The letter, sent anonymously to Harvard, the University of Michigan and University of Wisconsin-Madison, alleged that chief diversity and inclusion officer Sherri Ann Charleston committed 40 instances of plagiarism over the years, according to the Washington Free Beacon.
The Free Beacon first reported on the complaint, describing the details of how Charleston allegedly committed these counts of plagiarism, including not properly attributing sources or quotes almost a dozen times in her 2009 dissertation at Michigan.
Over the past seven years, many Democratic politicians have been elevated as liberal heroes of “the Resistance.” Perhaps none may have been more overrated by a loving liberal media than Stacey Abrams. Abrams rose to stardom during the 2018 election cycle, hailed as the Democrat who could flip Georgia blue while running for governor. She ended up losing in a Democratic-wave year and claiming that the election was stolen from her. She refused to concede, and yet she was not given the election-denier treatment as Republicans were after 2020. Instead, she was humored all the way to her 2022 campaign
For days we’ve been waiting to hear what Joe Biden and the Bidenites are planning to do after three of our service members were killed in a drone strike at Tower 22, an American outpost on the border of Syria and Jordan—are we getting into another war or not? We’re already involved in Ukraine’s conflict… we’re buckling under the military invasion at our southern border… we’re being pulled into war with the Houthis… we’re entangled in Israel’s campaign against Hamas… and now this? Let me preface this with a profane language warning, but it seems like everyone is getting pretty fed up with multiple warfronts… even leftist MSNBC pundits:
French President Emmanuel Macron is reminding the European leaders of their responsibility to fund the multinational corporate war machine, especially if the United States doesn’t find a way to send $60 billion more in funding for the effort.
(Via Politico) – European countries must make bold and “innovative” decisions to help Ukraine even if the U.S. backs off from supporting Kyiv in the coming months, French President Emmanuel Macron said Tuesday.
[…] Europe must not delegate its security “to big powers, even if they are very good allies, because they live on the other side of the ocean,” he said.
A 54-year-old branch of Denny's has closed its doors in Oakland amid threats to 'the safety and wellbeing' of staff and customers, as the Bay Area city struggles to contain soaring crime.

Poor communication and a refusal to adapt to evolving scientific evidence led to unnecessary school closures and the restriction of outdoor activity during the Covid outbreak, contributing to the “pandemic chaos” that plagued the country for more than two years, a scathing report published Monday revealed.
The report, “Pandemic lessons for the 2024 presidential election,” was published in the British Medical Journal and draws on a breadth of scientific studies to assess the policy failures that led to significantly higher death rates in the U.S. than in other developed countries.
“During the devastating global covid-19 pandemic, one nation stood out: the United States saw ‘eye wateringly high’ death rates compared with
