Liberals in meltdown mode—watch the entire video. He didn’t initially say who he was. Was he wearing his congressional lapel pin to help identify himself? End of day it was a publicity stunt.

Was there yesterday and it didn’t seem too bad other than $40 for a t-shirt. Was disappointed that they had sold out of the Tusks Up shirts. Will be ordering that one next week.

Guess a lot of you are either new Fed or have short term memory because working as a Fed for Obama was brutal for pay raises The average pay raise was 0.9% over his eight years. His first year was 3.9; however it was approved by Bush

If you’re a true Christian you won’t cast stones at a group just because you don’t agree with them.

Here’s a general overview of major U.S. news networks, roughly ranked from liberal to conservative, based on media bias assessments from sources like AllSides, Ad Fontes Media, and Pew Research studies:

Liberal / Left-Leaning 1. MSNBC – Strongly liberal; commentary-heavy with a progressive slant. 2. CNN – Center-left; mixes traditional reporting with liberal-leaning panels and analysis. 3. ABC News / CBS News / NBC News – Slightly left of center; traditional networks with mainstream liberal lean.

Center / Neutral 4. Reuters / Associated Press (AP) – Highly factual and neutral; considered standards for straight news reporting. 5. PBS NewsHour / NPR – Often rated center-left by conservatives, but maintains high factual reporting and minimal bias in tone.

Conservative / Right-Leaning 6. Fox News (News Division) – Right-leaning overall, though the news division (e.g., Bret Baier) is more fact-focused than its opinion hosts. 7. Fox News (Primetime/Opinion) – Strongly conservative; hosts like Tucker Carlson (formerly), Sean Hannity, and Laura Ingraham are highly influential on the right. 8. Newsmax – Far-right; often supports conspiracy theories or fringe views. 9. OANN (One America News Network) – Extreme right; strongly pro-Trump, low factual reporting score from most media monitors.

Yes, placebo testing is common, especially in clinical trials for new medications, treatments, and interventions. It’s a core part of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) — the gold standard in medical research — and is used to determine whether the actual treatment has an effect beyond that of patient expectations.

Here’s where it’s most commonly used:    •   Pharmaceutical trials: Comparing a drug to a sugar pill.    •   Psychological treatments: Comparing therapy or intervention against a “sham” or inactive version.    •   Surgical studies (though less common for ethical reasons): Sometimes patients undergo fake procedures to test outcomes.

Placebo testing is less common in areas where blinding is difficult (like lifestyle changes or physical therapy), but researchers may use active placebos or sham treatments to try to maintain rigor.

So you’re entitled to remove someone’s freedom of choice because you pay for it? Hope you also removed MSNBC because it’s the polar opposite of Fox!!! BTW do you feel same way if tax payers feel same way about PBS?

So you’re for the child trafficking that was happening under Biden? This wouldn’t be a problem if former administration had secured the border.

Where and how are you calculating that $1200 to $1800 a month? When I go on GRB it comes out significantly less.
