Former President Donald Trump arrived in New York City Monday afternoon to face criminal charges in connection to a “hush money” payment to adult actress Stormy Daniels in 2016.
Trump, 76, touched down at LaGuardia Airport in a private jet just before 3:30 p.m. after taking off from West Palm Beach, Florida earlier in the afternoon. He’s set to spend the night at his Trump Tower residence ahead of his arraignment in Manhattan Supreme Court on Tuesday.
The former president is expected to surrender at the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office at around 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday, in order to be fingerprinted and have his mugshot taken prior to his first court appearance.
A grand jury convened by DA Alvin Bragg last week voted to indict Trump — …
“I had two main goals when I began writing this book: to expose the fact-checking industry for the fraud that it is and to provide an archive of their errors extensive enough to discredit them once and for all.” In his new book, Fact-Checking the Fact-Checkers, Matt Palumbo accomplished exactly what he set out to do.
Palumbo’s latest book is to fact-checking what Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn’s Gulag Archipelago was to Soviet Communism. The Gulag Archipelago’s gruesome account of life in Soviet Russia dealt a deathblow to waning intellectual support for Communism by forcing readers to reckon with the chasm between Communism’s lofty promises and realities of Siberian forced-labor camps. Likewise, Fact-Checking the Fact-Checkers demolishes the remaining credibility of the fact-checking industry with page after page of demonstrable fact-checking falsehoods by the industry’s biggest names. Readers can expect to be besieged by re-emerging memories of misleading, and often outright false, fact checks that the “disinformation experts” would prefer them to forget.
The Deep Dark History of “Fact-Checking”
In Part One, Palumb …
Anheuser-Busch — a once-iconic family of American brands now under the banner of the Belgian multinational AB InBev — apparently has not learned its lesson when it comes to financing “woke” advertising that antagonizes customers.
In 2016, the company committed to a series of commercials that involved pairing two of the most grotesque “comedians” on earth — Amy Schumer and Seth Rogen — virtue signaling and pandering with leftist narratives to promote Bud Light beer.
One nauseating ad involved Schumer and Rogen mindlessly lectur …
As former President Donald Trump battles attacks from the left, current President Joe Biden can’t seem to keep his head above water in the polls.
Recent polls again show a drop in America’s confidence in the Biden Administration, even as the 2024 election looms nearer and the Democrat’s frenzy to pin something-anything on Trump is evident.
A March poll indicated a drop in President Biden’s approval rating as Americans walking in the nation’s capital gave their own grades on his performance, Fox …
New York police have begun barricading Trump Tower as they prepare for President Trump’s surrender to authorities this week.
Roads around the Trump Tower and the Manhattan Criminal Courthouse have also been blocked off.
Police say the thorough preparations come following Trump’s call to supporters to “protest” and “take our nation back” in the event of his indictment.
New York Gov. Kathy Hochul offered to deploy the National Guard or other assets during Trump’s court appearance.
“The NYPD ensures thousands of events, including First Amendment activities, are condu …
MSM finally confirmed what most observant Americans suspected, that a Chinese balloon, which the Federal government downplayed, and that flew across the United States in early February, was able to gather intelligence from several U.S. military sites and transmit it back to the Chinese Communist Party in Beijing in “real-time.”
So the scheme was successful against the United States, despite the Biden administration’s efforts to prevent the balloon from doing so, NBC News reported Monday.
Many independent media sources believe that Biden, who has vast pers …
The Rhino-Left axis of evil in the United States, who refuse to respect ‘MAGA’ American’s civil liberties in order to bring about their political utopia of control has been exposed over and over again, and here is just one more example of how immoral, unethical and outright criminal their fantasies of dominating free Americans is really.
The events on Jan. 6th at the US Capitol, which swept up several innocent Americans for punishment as political prisoners in DC prisons at the hands of radical …
The New York Times has lost its official Twitter verification. In the early morning hours of April 2, the Times’ verification badge dropped from their Twitter profile.New rules have come into play under Elon Musk’s stewardship of the media-heavy social media platform. Now media companies, along with individuals, must pay for their verified labels – a move that Musk believes will lead to more accurate information being disseminated on social media. It’s meant to be a corrective to the collusion between government, big tech and corporate media.Musk made the change to hold media outlets accountable and to also generate r …
