The Supreme Court this week heard a case that could forever change the future of college sports by deciding if college athletes should be getting paid. In the case NCAA v.

Nearly 60 years after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, Jr., debate about who actually was responsible for the assassination continues to rage. Adding fuel to the fire is a recent new book claiming that the Soviet Union ordered Lee Harvey Oswald to assassinate Kennedy. The book wouldn’t necessarily make waves with that allegation, except that one of its co-authors is former CIA Director James Woolsey. That alone makes the book a must-read for those interested in what really happened on that fateful day in Dallas in 1963. In…

California Bill Would Ban Police Officers That Express Religious Or Conservative Views

The California State Assembly has introduced a new bill that would ban police officers who have made public comments supporting religious or conservative views. Those who proposed the bill say it simply removes officers who have engaged in “hate speech” or are affiliated with a “hate group.” But the strategic way the bill is written would cause many officers to lose their jobs or be prohibited from serving, simply for stating their religious or conservative beliefs. State Rep. Ash Kalra (D-San Jose) introduced the bill. She deceptively named it the…

Fauci: Science Does Not Guide All of the CDC’s Decisions

Anthony Fauci, one of President Joe Biden’s top COVID-19 advisers, admitted that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention does not always use scientific data and evidence to guide its Covid-19 guidelines.
