Judicial Watch Obtains Records Showing Contact Between Peter Strzok, Bruce Ohr That DOJ Claimed It Couldn’t Find

(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today it received through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit 13 pages out of 42 responsive pages of communications between former FBI official Peter Strzok and DOJ official Bruce Ohr that the DOJ claimed previously it could not find.

To unify a divided country, start by scrapping the federal carbon tax

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau held on to his office, but his victory came with a serious downside: outside of a few ridings in Winnipeg, you can now drive all the way from Thunder Bay to the suburbs of Vancouver without crossing a Liberal-held constituency.

There is simply no way to interpret the result as anything other than a country deeply divided.

‘Have-not’ provinces received $2.1 billion more in equalization payments due to program

Why is Equalization Still Growing?CALGARY—Canada’s equalization program has cost taxpayers—including taxpayers in “have” provinces such as Alberta—$2.1 billion more in equalization payments since 2017 due to a program design flaw, finds a new study released today by the Fraser Institute, an independent, non-partisan Canadian public policy think-tank. “Most Canadians likely assume that if the fiscal disparity between richer and poorer provinces shrinks, equalization payments also shrink—but currently, that’s not how the program works,” said Ben Eisen, Fraser Institute senior fellow and co-author of Why is Equalization Still Growing?

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez Returns to The Place She Cost Thousands of Jobs

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez Returns to The Place She Cost Thousands of Jobs“I am back,” Senator Bernie Sanders declared in Queensbridge Park: under the shadow of Queensbridge Houses, the country’s biggest housing project and its biggest failed experiments in government housing. Cabrini–Green, Pruitt–Igoe, and other mammoth projects have been demolished. Queensbridge or 'the Bridge' lingers on as the nation's worst socialist housing eyesore where nothing works except the guns. Aides and proxies for the socialist politician insisted that the location was sending a message.

Devin Nunes: Spygate is Greatest Political Scandal in Modern US HistoryWhen did the FBI investigation into the Trump presidential campaign begin? Was Congress properly briefed at the time? Just what exactly are the “protodossiers,” and how did they contribute to the development of the now-infamous Steele dossier? What parallels are there between the Spygate scandal and the current Trump impeachment inquiry, and what is the role of the media in all this?

A stretchable stopwatch lights up human skin

A stretchable stopwatch lights up human skinImagine a runner who doesn’t need to carry a stopwatch or cell phone to check her time: She could just gaze at the glowing stopwatch display on the back of her hand. Such human-machine interfaces are no longer science fiction, but they still have a way to go before becoming mainstream. Now, researchers reporting in ACS Materials Letters have developed a stretchable light-emitting device that operates at low voltages and is safe for human skin.

New device can sniff out deadly food allergens in 30 secondsIn a horrific story of terror at 10,000 feet, an 8-year-old girl with severe food allergies was exposed to pistachio shells that had been left, unbeknownst to her and her usually vigilant parents, in the seatback pocket of the row in front of her during a harrowing 2014 airplane ride home. The girl’s throat swelled – she was going into anaphylactic shock – and, despite her parents immediately injecting her with an emergency shot of epinephrine, she remained highly agitated during the remaining three hours of the flight.

Why Desperate Democrats MUST Impeach Trump

Why Desperate Democrats MUST Impeach TrumpDesperate Democrats NEED to Impeach President Donald Trump for this reason: Living the Dream of the official return of Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden to the White House. Unofficially, Obama, Clinton and Biden are already there, where they sincerely believe they are still running the show. Ever since Election Night 2016, the overriding intent of the delirious Democrats has been to steamroll a president who loves his country into oblivion with one failed lie after another.

We Are At War And The Mainstream Media Is The Enemy

We Are At War And The Mainstream Media Is The EnemyBe honest, did you continue on with ...the world ‘cause I just want to get off? If you did, you would not be alone in your effort to jump off this out-of-control-crazy-train we Americans find ourselves on as hapless passengers. No, you can be assured of millions of friends, neighbors and fellow-countrymen joining that jump with you. Or better yet, when will it all STOP? Do we ever go back to being a peace-loving-nation again, or in the end, will hate have triumphed consuming the culture and very soul of our Nation.

Eco-imperialists impose a  biomess on Africa

China, India, Vietnam and other nations are using more and more oil, natural gas and coal every year to electrify and modernize their nations, create jobs, and improve their people’s health, living standards and life spans. Why in this day and age are the World Bank and other international institutions demanding widespread use of charcoal for heating and cooking in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA)?

Another impeachment inquiry, or not

Another impeachment inquiry, or notPlease news media, stop calling them impeachment hearings and “official impeachment inquiry.” There is nothing official or legitimate about it! The whole House of Representatives is required to vote on it to make it official. Carrying on the smokescreen, on Monday the Speaker announced there will be a full House vote Thursday on a resolution relating to impeachment, but, according to what Speaker Pelosi told the press on Monday is “not an impeachment resolution.”

Importing Middle East Terrorism

Importing Middle East Terrorism

Obama bureaucrats in the CIA are still stinging over President Trump’s dramatic decision to both withdraw U.S. forces from northern Syria and take down the leader of ISIS. The decision was a win-win, as the communist terrorist PKK/YPG Kurds in northern Syria were dealt a military defeat by Turkey, and the ISIS terrorist leader was sent to Judgment, as a result of U.S. military might and canine expertise.
