China Ramps Up U.S. Crude Oil Imports As Elections Near

China has been buying a lot of U.S. crude oil lately, perhaps in a belated attempt to fulfill some of the energy import quotas agreed with Washington last year or perhaps in a bid to take advantage of supercheap U.S. crude. But the buying spree is about to end.

History of U.S. Offshore Oil Drilling

The exploration history of the U.S. offshore oil and natural gas industry began in the Pacific Ocean at the end of the 19th century. In 1896, a 300-foot pier was built off the Santa Barbara Channel in California and a standard cable-tool rig was mounted on it. By 1897, this first offshore well was producing oil, which lasted for 25 years. Another 22 companies joined in, constructing 14 more piers and over 400 wells within the next five years. Early explorers noticed bubbles in the water from natural seeps of oil that gave them clues that oil might lie beneath the ocean. In 1911, Gulf Refining Company abandoned the use of piers, drilling in Caddo Lake, Louisiana, using a fleet of tugboats, barges, and floating pile drivers. The well (Ferry Lake No. 1) was drilled to a depth of 2,185 feet and produced 450 barrels per day.

Who’s a Bigot, a Racist or a Fascist?

Those words are bandied about willy-nilly by mostly liberals (a/k/a Progressives) generally describing their political opponents. First off, what is the definition of a bigot? It is defined as: “A person who has strong, unreasonable ideas, esp. about race or religion, and who thinks anyone who does not have the same beliefs is wrong”. That same definition can be used for the terms racist and Fascist as well.

Communist China Exploits Gaps in US Military

For years, the Chinese Communist Party has aggressively sought to modernize its military, with a focus on anti-satellite weapons, hypersonic missiles, and cyberspace. “What China has been doing, really since the 90s, is invest heavily in the kinds of weapons systems specifically to target where the United States is weakest,” says nuclear deterrence and missile defense specialist Rebeccah Heinrichs.

What a Biden-Harris Fracking Ban Would Mean

Hydraulic fracturing has made the United States the top oil and natural gas producer in the world and it has made the nation energy independent for the first time in 62 years. Yet, during stages in the campaign, potential Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and his running mate Kamala Harris advocated a ban on fracking and a ban on drilling, sometimes entirely and sometimes only on federal lands and waters. A recent study shows that banning federal leasing and fracking on public and private lands would:

NYPD clash with BLM protesters standing among diners in Manhattan

Chaos and vicious clashes between police and BLM protesters erupted in New York City, Portland, Seattle, Los Angeles and Louisville Saturday night, days after it was announced that the officers who shot Breonna Taylor would not be charged in her death. In New York City locals enjoying outdoor dining got caught in scuffles between the NYPD and BLM protesters as officers charged towards demonstrators hiding among restaurant customers.

BLM Co-Founder’s Ties to Pro-Communist China Group

The Chinese Communist Party, or CCP, has long sought to subvert America. While a number of the groups involved in recent riots have ideological ties to Beijing, what are the deeper connections? Heritage Foundation senior fellow Mike Gonzalez discovered that the Black Futures Lab, closely linked to the Black Lives Matter Global Movement, is being funded by an openly pro-CCP group, the Chinese Progressive Association. In this episode, Gonzalez reveals exactly what he found, why recent fact-checks of his work have proven inaccurate, and why he believes identity politics is undermining the very foundations of America.

Arab Muslims are People of Color, Arab Christians are White

Maintaining its proud commitment to printing all the news that will divide Americans by race, sex, and creed, the New York Times published a list of what it claimed were the "922 of the most powerful people in America" while claiming that only 20% of them are people of color. The term “people of color” is already ambiguous enough with white professors, grad students, and NAACP presidents claiming to be black. But the New York Times’ racial list, a thing reeking of Nuremberg and Goebbels, put the paper in charge of deciding who is a person of color by marking them with yellow. It’s a good thing no notorious racist ideology had the same idea.

Wind turbines generate mountains of waste

Environmentalists and wind energy opportunists (entrepreneurs who take advantage of overly generous tax credits and multiple other subsidies) want you to believe wind energy is as pure "green" as newly driven snow is white, and as cheap as Taco Bell. They never tell you about the costs – or the environmental destruction – that they have hidden from you for decades. But neither do most governments, news media or social media.

I’m going to fight this: Man arrested during outdoor church meeting for having NO MASK speaks

A group of churchgoers in Moscow, Idaho, have been attending outdoor services (called a "psalm sing") throughout the coronavirus pandemic -- it gives attendees not only the opportunity to sing hymns together, but to protest outrageous city regulations as well. But last Sunday, things took a turn: Gabriel Rench, and two others, were arrested by police for not wearing a mask or social distancing adequately. Rench tells Glenn the full story, and he details the moment he challenged the arresting officers to "be like Daniel." But, Rench says, he's "going to fight back" against these city standards that clearly are in violation of his First Amendment rights.

Leftist Radiation: Without Propaganda, Trump’s Popularity Would Soar for Certain Reelection

INTRO: Propaganda Cocktails There is a figure in Catholicism, Saint Christopher, Patron Saint of Travels, etc. After many years of veneration, some historians doubt his existence. Entertaining, of course -- but it's no different than the treatment Donald Trump received. His opponents were so sure he would spoil their racket and expose their real identities – and scams, graft and power-grabbing. This included Republicans who also hated Trump. So his foes built an astonishing fake history to poison minds of the credulous before they could find out who Trump was through actions. This was all achieved through propaganda. 

The Football Follies

Over the last few decades, Americans have enjoyed an ever-increasing love affair with the games of college and professional football. Eventually, the National Football League (NFL) surpassed Major League Baseball to become the country’s top sports attraction.

A Conversation With The Neighbor

Many fun-filled-stories have passed over our backyard fence, as my Jewish neighbor and I did the lean-on for many good years, always respective of the conversational taboo topics of religion and politics that is, until now, where nearly every face-cover- breath has become overtly political.

Stop your vote being stolen: Vote in person not by mail

As America continues to sink into an abyss of chaos, arson and looting--the last thing it needs are further protests across America or legal actions by teams representing either Republicans or Democrats challenging the election results on November 3, 2020.

Video Gold: CNN Host Alisyn Camerota’s Face as Voters Explain Why They’re Voting for Tru

I must admit, it’s a lot of fun when CNN gets taken by surprise and they end up having to report real news rather than just their regular 24/7 anti-Trump narrative. Sometimes a little truth does accidentally slip through on their network, though, as it did today during one of their segments on the election.

As Problems with Postal Service Become Apparent, Dems Quietly Pivot on Mail-In Voting

For months, Democrats and the liberal media have been claiming everyone must vote by mail this year to avoid spreading the coronavirus. For just as long, conservatives have responded that this sudden push for mail-in voting opens the door to fraud and might overwhelm the U.S. Postal Service.

Billionaires and millionaires only have one vote

Billionaires and millionaires donating large amounts to the Democratic Party hoping to see Biden beat Trump should be getting very worried.

Democrats Ideologically In Bed With BLM?

There can no longer be any doubt about it: The Democrats are ideologically in bed with Black Lives Matter (BLM). The future belongs to BLM and not to average American citizens, as haughtily decreed yesterday by Sen. Kamala Harris.
