We've said it before: the '70s was a vibe—a very amber-ish brown, dark orange, and avocado green vibe. We even recently took a fun trip down memory lane with our list of some of the most iconic objects from the '70s. It's funny, we often think of the '70s as a light-filled, super hippy, peace-love-and-understanding time in history. But at home, when it came to color, things were pretty clunky, dark, and, well, dull. Nothing had more of a '70s vibe than the heart of the home: the kitchen. Technology and gadgets really came in hot during this decade, with...

Parties opposing Catalonia’s independence from Spain have garnered the support of a majority of voters in the region. Recent elections saw approximately 54% of the electorate elect candidates from non-separatist parties across the political spectrum, making a significant shift in Catalonia’s political landscape. This vote may have drawn a line under a tumultuous decade marked by a push for independence. The 2017 call for independence included an unofficial referendum, a unilateral declaration of independence, mass protests and arguably the country’s most severe constitutional crisis since the transition to democracy in 1975. Separatism had been waning before this vote, but this...

An Ohio sex worker allegedly had contact with more than 200 clients despite knowing she was HIV-positive — and state officials are now warning anybody who engaged in “risky business” with her to come forward and get tested. Linda Leccesse, 30, had contact with at least 211 clients from multiple states in the two years since Jan. 1 2022, which is around when she took an HIV test and learned she was positive for the potentially deadly virus, authorities said. Leccesse solicited most of those clients on Market Street in Marietta — a small city in southeast Ohio on the...

@DiedSuddenly_ This is huge: The former director of the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) admits Covid shots caused ‘significant side effects’ among young healthy people. He also admitted that the vaccine wasn’t really “necessary” for people under 50 years old. He THEN admitted that many young and healthy people have suffered “significant side effects” from Covid mRNA shots. Although this is a significant admission, it’s a little too late. DO NOT forget that 2 years ago, the same CDC signed off on forced vaccinations for workers, mandatory vaccines for pregnant women, and many people lost their livelihoods...

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has secured a temporary restraining order from a federal judge that prevents an unlawful rule promulgated by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (“ATF”) from taking effect while the case is litigated. On May 1, Attorney General Paxton led a coalition suing the ATF to prevent a new regulatory restriction that unlawfully attempted to abridge Americans’ constitutional right to privately buy and sell firearms. The Final Rule was arbitrary and capricious and flagrantly violated the Second Amendment. Despite Congress having recognized the legality of private firearms sales by non-dealers, the Biden Administration issued...

Joe Biden held a campaign even in Atlanta Saturday and literally dozens of people showed up. The event, which entailed more pandering to black people, took place at Mary Mac’s Tea Room in downtown Atlanta, where Biden looked completely out of it. He looked around totally confused and began saluting as people laughed at him before he was introduced: Just look at the size of the crowd: Earlier, Biden’s motorcade drove through Atlanta and practically no one cared: Compare this energy to the Trump Rally in New Jersey last weekend where almost 100,000 people turned up: Biden is probably on...

Paul Revere used to summer every year in Canton, but he wouldn’t recognize the place today. One thing, though, hasn’t changed since the 18th of April in ’75 — the locals still love their midnight rides, but with one big difference. Paul Revere wasn’t hammered out of his mind when he was on horseback, spreading the alarm to every Middlesex village and farm. Through the first 14 days of the Karen Read murder trial in Dedham, we have learned much about life in the Town of Canton, post-Paul Revere. As you know, Read is accused of murdering her boyfriend, BPD...

And it has its own plane, a $430,000 four-seater, supposedly to be used for missionary work, but which flight records show has only made two trips all year.

Last Sunday the congregation was only around 30 people including children The...

You’d think a guy who lies as much as Michael Cohen would be better at it.On Thursday, under relentless cross-examination from defense lawyer Todd Blanche, Cohen drove the effort to make Donald Trump a felon for the “crime” of misclassifying accounting records over a cliff.To recap: in October 2016, Cohen paid the adult-film actress Stormy Daniels $130,000 to buy her silence over her alleged affair with Trump. In 2017, Trump and his company paid Cohen $420,000, partly to reimburse Cohen for that payment. Trump is now on trial in Manhattan for 34 felony charges of “falsifying business records” because -...

Critics on social media dragged President Biden over video footage showing what appeared to be a small showing of supporters greeting the president’s motorcade in the deep blue city of Atlanta, where he held a fundraising event and delivered Morehouse College’s commencement speech. “Crooked Joe Biden – dazed and confused, as usual – shuffles down the short stairs in Atlanta ahead of his day of pandering. He ignores questions,” RNC research posted Saturday as Biden landed in the city. “If a presidential motorcade passes through town but absolutely nobody cares – did it really pass through town?” RNC Research asked...

Today’s gun control politicians are making it clear. It’s not just guns they despise. There are two other primary obstacles to civil disarmament that they loathe.One is the Second Amendment itself. The other, well, it’s you – the gun owner.It wasn’t that long ago when President Barack Obama lambasted gun owners who refused to roll over to his gun control agenda. Stumping for his first election to The White House, he told fundraisers at a San Francisco event of smalltown Pennsylvania voters that were left behind, especially by the political elites.“And it’s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling...
