TOP STORIES

HOUSE JUDICIARY TO INVESTIGATE CORRUPTION ALLEGATION AGAINST LAWFARE ASSASSIN FANI WILLIS – The GOP-lead House Judiciary Committee has announced plans to hold hearings investigating the reckless and unconstitutional actions of Fulton County Georgia DA and DNC-CCP Lawfare Assassin Fani Willis. She is the “lawyer” charging 19 high-ranking Republicans, including Donald Trump, with overreaching RICO charges that defy constitutional law.
In the tepid letter, the GOP House leadership wrote, “Your indictment and prosecution implicate substantial federal interests, and the circumstances surrounding your actions raise serious concerns about whether they are politically motivated.”

VIDEO SHOWS LAHAINA DRIVER PREDICTING COPS WOULD BLOCK RESIDENTS FROM ESCAPING FIRE – A viral video shows a driver escaping the Lahaina fire when he is passed by a police car that he predicts will be blocking residents from leaving the doomed town. The man, known as “Fish,” can be heard on the video saying, “We’re all trapped down in here. They’re blocking off all exits and everyone is just stuck going in a circle in a fire pit……they’re going to f#$king barbecue all these people down in Lahaina.”
In an interview after the fire, Fish said, “So I went around back to Front Street and all the cars were lined up but none of them were moving. And I walked all the way from Safeway to the Chart House – not one car has moved, and I was wondering what was stopping the traffic. Well, it was a policeman. And I got to the end and I looked up north. There were no obstructions. There was no reason to keep those cars there.”

NICARAGUA OUTLAWS JESUIT ORDER – The Nicaraguan government has declared the Catholic Jesuit Order to be illegal in their country. They have also moved to seize all their assets. Earlier, they had seized the Jesuit-run University of Central America. They claimed the order was not complying with tax reporting and also that they are a “center of terrorism.” The Society of Jesuits of Central America responded to the move, saying “This is a government policy that systematically violates human rights and appears to be aimed at consolidating a totalitarian state.”
ANOTHER REBEL GROUP THREATENS CHAD JUNTA – After 30 plus rebel groups signed a cease fire with Chad’s so-called “transitional authority” in Doha last year, more and more are ending the ceasefire, causing Mahamat Idriss Deby to have to go to the front to fight them. His father, Idriss Deby, was killed in 2021 while fighting rebels. His son seized power but has been unable to consolidate that power. Now, another rebel group has announced plans to end the ceasefire agreement.

BIOLOGISTS ARE RAISING ALARM THAT “LEFTISM” IS DESTROYING SCIENCE – Ecologist Jerry Coyne of the University of Chicago and Biologist Professor Luana Maroja penned a piece in Skeptical Inquirer that warns scientists the increasing injection of leftist, or “woke,” ideology into science departments is killing science as an institution. They wrote on one of six examples of how leftist policies are destroying science, “Your biological sex is determined simply by whether your body is designed to make large, immobile gametes (eggs, for females) or small and mobile gametes (sperm, characterizing males).”
BIDEN ADMIN SUDDENLY REMOVES 27 CCP-OWNED COMPANIES FROM TRADE RESTRICTION LIST – The Mass Mailer President Joe Biden Committee has decided 27 CCP-owned companies are no longer worthy of being on a trade restriction list. The decision was made just as he sent his commerce secretary to Beijing to coordinate their shared efforts to destroy the American republic, though the administration did not word it in that way. However, his “coincidental” actions on the day the commerce secretary is set to leave Beijing tells you more than any statement coming out of the White House ever will.

EDITOR’S CHOICE
AMERICAN BAR ASSOCIATION LOOKS TO PROTECT SPEECH? – The American Bar Association has issued a decree that it is considering cracking down on efforts by law schools to infringe on free speech rights and limit “healthy” debate. They said they are looking for actions that are a “disruptive conduct that hinders free expression.” They stated, “The development of the law and effective legal education require free and robust inquiry, exposition, and the exchange of ideas. Proposed Standard 208 seeks to ensure that law schools properly protect academic freedom for teachers and freedom of expression more broadly.”
CANADA ORDERS JORDAN PETERSON TO RE-EDUCATION CAMP TO HOLD ON TO PSYCHOLOGIST LICENCE – A Canadian Court has ruled that the College of Psychologists of Ontario can order Dr. Jordan Peterson to receive re-education training as a result of his resolute claim that men are men and women are women. The infested far-left organization has determined that no one can be a psychologist if they don’t deny basic human biological reality, making everyone in Canada feeling much “safer” about the quality of care they will receive from the medical industry.

MANAGING HOLES COULD REVOLUTIONIZE WEARABLE MEDICAL TECH – Researchers from the University of Cambridge have discovered a way to create a new material for making wearable medical tech devices that can be integrated and responsive to your body.
From scitechdaily.com: “Our findings challenge the conventional understanding of the charging process in electrochemical devices,” said first author Scott Keene, from Cambridge’s Cavendish Laboratory and the Electrical Engineering Division. “The movement of holes, which act as empty spaces for electrons to move into, can be surprisingly inefficient during low levels of charging, causing unexpected slowdowns.”
RESEARCHERS HAVE 3D-PRINTED HUMAN “FLESH” THAT FUNCTIONS LIKE THE REAL THING – Researchers from the University of Sydney and the Children’s Medical Research Institute have developed a technique that allows them to 3D print material that functions like human tissue. The researchers use photolithographic printing to recreate human-like tissue that functions like an organ’s architecture.
