America's population growing AWAY from major cities | WND | by Around the Web:
There are 124 cities with a population over 200,000 in the U.S. According to the U.S. Census Bureau’s population estimates for last year, over 90% of the U.S. population growth last year took place outside of its 124 largest cities. About a third of those cities lost population last year. The total growth in the population of cities with over 200,000 residents grew by .23%, less than half of what the U.S. grew last year.

Judge Says New York City Jury Doesn't Need to Agree on Predicate Crime to Convict Trump of Guilt - The Last Refuge
Judge Says New York City Jury Doesn't Need to Agree on Predicate Crime to Convict Trump of Guilt - The Last Refuge
"At this point in time finding Donald Trump guilty of anything, any crime at all, is just a matter of Judge Juan Merchan following through on expectations.
"At this point in time finding Donald Trump guilty of anything, any crime at all, is just a matter of Judge Juan Merchan following through on expectations.
- The entire world is watching what happens in New York City through the prism of ridiculous lawfare and politics. No intellectually honest observers believe this is a trial about substance, guilt, criminal activity or innocence therein. The illusion of a nonprejudicial justice system has long past and everyone can see the extreme politicization taking place in Judge Merchan’s courtroom.
- Finding President Trump guilty of a crime is seemingly a foregone conclusion. Even the White House is saying Joe Biden will deliver remarks to the nation from the official executive office as soon as the guilty verdict is delivered {SEE HERE}.
- Judge Merchan has yet to release the public version of jury instructions, however he previously decided last week that the jurors do not need to agree on a predicate crime in order to fund President Trump guilty of trying to hide one.
{SOURCE}
- Yes, you read that correctly…. The jurors do not need to believe a crime was committed in order to convict Trump of unlawfully hiding a crime he never committed. Let that insufferable Lawfare logic sink in.

'Aladdin' director John Musker rips Disney for focusing too much on political messaging instead of entertaining | Blaze Media
'Aladdin' director John Musker rips Disney for focusing too much on political messaging instead of entertaining | Blaze Media:
"The classic Disney films didn’t start out trying to have a message. They wanted you to get involved in the characters and the story and the world, and I think that’s still the heart of it," the filmmaker added. "You don’t have to exclude agendas, but you have to first create characters who you sympathize with and who are compelling."
World of Reel reported that Musker's suggestion falls in line with what Disney CEO Bob Iger said would be happening within the company. He said that the company would focus more on entertaining rather than expressing political messages.

"Facebook is deploying so-called “fact-checkers” to run interference for the FBI after it was revealed the agency authorized the use of “deadly force” against former President Trump during its 2022 raid on his Mar-a-Lago estate.
- On Thursday, the Big Tech platform slapped an “independent fact-check” on The Federalist’s May 21 report detailing the contents of unsealed court documents that revealed the FBI gave agents raiding Trump’s Florida residence the green-light to use “deadly force” against the former president “when necessary.”
- The raid — which took place on Aug. 8, 2022 — was approved by Attorney General Merrick Garland and reportedly aimed at retrieving “any document Trump ever saw, read, or created for the entirety of his four years as commander-in-chief.”...

Tide turning in police hiring and departures, report explains | WND | by WND Staff:
It might seem strange to read that Democrats are preparing to investigate a Supreme Court justice. The legislature’s authority over the top court, after all, is seriously limited. Justices’ lifetime appointments are designed precisely to shield them from the kinds of political pressures Congress or the president might bring to bear post-confirmation.
It might seem even stranger to see Justice Samuel Alito splashed across the top of Politico’s Playbook and the New York Times morning newsletters for the high crime and misdemeanor of flying a nerdy Revolutionary War flag.

Republicans fight back against central bank digital currencies | Blaze Media:
For example, with a CBDC, a government could issue a stimulus payment that had to be used in a certain amount of time or could only be used on certain items to reduce the chances of inflation.
The flip side is that governments could use a CBDC to track all economic activity and even control it. For instance, if a government wanted to effectively ban tobacco products without legislation, it could simply exclude them from being purchased with CBDC.
This may sound like a conspiratorial sci-fi fever dream, but it is very real, and high-level individuals at Bank of America, the International Monetary Fund, and the World Economic Forum have publicly gushed about the control CBDCs would give them. It wouldn’t be unfair to liken a CBDC to a “One Ring” of a nation’s economy.

CNN Reporter Admits the Truth About Trump's Bronx Rally, and It's Not What Democrats Want to See:
After dim predictions from the establishment media, and mocking social media posts from certain New York Congresswomen, Donald Trump’s South Bronx rally was, by most metrics, a smashing success.
Despite the dreary rainstorms in the morning portending a muddy rally, the sky cleared in time for Trump’s arrival, and a crowd estimated to number in the thousands, far exceeding expectations, congregated to support the former president.

"When I served as a certified Poll Challenger at the Detroit Absentee Vote Counting Board (AVCB) located at the TCF Center during the 2020 general election, I had one singular mission – monitor the tallying of the votes.
Of course, in order to effectively execute that mission, I needed to know how votes were supposed to be tallied in the City of Detroit.
As it turns out, this process was not only a mystery to me, it was also a mystery to the election officials tasked with overseeing the election.

A major bank in America has dropped its agenda to punish members of the Christian faith by "debanking" them.
That's a process where a financial institution simply closes the accounts of a customer, sometimes a customer with years of established payment records with the bank.
