WATCH: Raskin Explains Why Dems Are Pursing Impeachment 2.0

“The Constitution talks about conviction, and removal, and disqualification from holding further public office. I don’t think anybody would seriously argue that we should establish a precedent where every president on the way out the door, has two weeks, or three weeks, or four weeks, to try to incite an armed insurrection against the union or organize a coup against the union and, if it succeeds, he becomes a dictator, and if he fails, he’s not subject to impeachment or conviction because we just want to let bygones be bygones,” Raskin explained to CNN’s Jake Tapper.

Adam Schiff throws out rules, again, says Trump should be cut from intel briefings immediately

Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., is so unhinged in his hatred for President Donald Trump that he’d apparently leave the United States vulnerable to attack for several days just to exact the ultimate revenge.

Appearing Sunday on CBS’s “Face the Nation,” Schiff said Trump should no longer receive daily intelligence briefings and be prohibited from receiving these briefings after he leaves office — ex-presidents are entitled to classified briefings.

“There’s no circumstance in which this president should get another intelligence briefing, not now, not in the future,” Schiff said, suggesting the current commander in chief should be kept in the dark about national threats, adding. “I don’t think he can be trusted with it now, and in the future he certainly can’t be trusted.”

No place for ‘far right’ in Conservative Party: O’Toole

The comments come as O’Toole has faced questions from the Liberals about allegedly Trump-style politics within his ranks, which has resulted in fingerpointing between the two parties.

Nearly half of adult Canadians struggle with literacy — and that’s bad for the economy

Poor reading, writing and numeracy skills in adults make up a literacy gap in Canada with consequences for both democracy and the economy. Experts say the gap is due in part to an abundance of jobs in the past that do not require the daily use of reading comprehension and information synthesis skills.

CBS’ Catherine Herridge Drops Some Troubling Previously Unknown Info About Coronavirus

There has been a lot of speculation over time about the origin of the Wuhan coronavirus.

Obviously, it originated out of Wuhan and China was responsible for hiding from the world its true nature and spreading it to the rest of the world.

But now CBS’ Catherine Herridge is dropping some intriguing information from the U.S. State Department. They’ve come out with a fact sheet with previously unknown facts about the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

The left’s ‘urge to purge’ response to the Capitol assault

Once again refusing to let a crisis “go to waste,” the left is looking to use the Capitol assault to purge anyone who doesn’t agree with it.

The feds have charged more than 70 people and opened nearly 200 files. That’s all to the good: Rioters should face arrest and even prison time. (That should hold for Antifa rioters too, of course, and for thugs who took advantage of Black Lives Matter protests to become violent, destroying businesses and even lives. Too bad the left doesn’t see that.)

Gripping ’09 Documentary Featuring Fauci, Redfield, & Other Now-Familiar Faces Inadvertently Sheds Some Very Interesting Light on COVID-19

Sometime in the early 2000s, a young Canadian filmmaker by the name of Brent Leung found himself struck by a number of facts:

The media and education establishment had instilled an obsessive fear of HIV and AIDS—not just in him—but in his entire generation.

He didn’t have a clue about the difference between HIV and AIDS or even whether there was one or, for that matter, what either is even precisely supposed to be.

Neither did virtually anyone else.

It is, of course, very unlikely that Monsieur Leung was the first to recognize this all-too-common gap between the general public’s certainty about some topic and their paucity of any actual knowledge that might warrant it.

Be that as it may, Leung’s proactive response to his befuddlement certainly was unique.

He went to the trouble of contacting all the major experts on HIV and AIDS and somehow got every single one of them to appear on camera as he asked the most basic questions about what those two acronyms represent and the relation between them.

The result of Leung’s dogged determination to get to the bottom of this disease he’d been taught to obsessively fear is about the most fascinating, can’t-stop-watching-even-if-you-want-to, 90-minutes of video that you’re likely to encounter.

That would be so even if the massive worldwide upheaval we experienced in 2020 had been nothing more than an awful bad dream.

But, of course, it was, sadly, all too real.

As such, Brett Lueng’s documentary—though released way back in 2009— winds up inadvertently shining a very different and interesting light on the obsessive fear of COVID-19 that overcame the world in 2020.

‘White lives matter’ banner taken down in California suburb, calling it ‘a despicable act of vandalism’

Bill Gates Is About To Change The Way America Farms

One of my favorite Clint Eastwood movies is the 1999 mystery/thriller True Crime. In it, the four-time Academy Award winner plays an over-the-hill journalist who has “a nose” for a story. I am quite confident that Eastwood’s character, Steve Everett, would have picked up the stench from this setup a mile off: a $171 million acquisition by an LLC with two employees in a metal-sided building down a dirt road off the Bayou Teche?

I forwarded the lead to our Land Report 100 Research Team. Minutes later, a terse response arrived:

“Ever hear of Bill Gates?”

Stop Quebec’s ineffective lockdown now

In Quebec, our government has issued orders shutting down the province for a month, complete with an 8 pm curfew and a ban on religious services, in response to an entirely predictable seasonal surge of the coronavirus, which emerged from Wuhan, China, about one year ago. Premier Legault has offered no cost/benefit analysis and no moral justification that can stand the least scrutiny. He merely repeats the refrain of equally irresponsible medical experts who claim that this will somehow rescue us from an impending disaster by stemming the winter wave of COVID transmissions. It will do no such thing. What it will do is cause still more serious harm to people deprived of their incomes and of their support communities, to say nothing of their constitutional rights and freedoms.
