HONG KONG -- By no means is former President Donald Trump famous for his Zen-like qualities, but that’s exactly how he has been dreamed up by one artist in the southern Chinese city of Xiamen. The 45th president of the United States, casted in ceramic, is as the world has never seen him before -- draped in robes, cross-legged, with his eyes gently closed as if in a deep meditative state.

Trump knows a lot more than the average politician, but the biggest difference between him and the Swamp Corruptocrats is that he is a genuine patriot and not taking bribes to get rich.

Notice that lack of objectivity, no, outright media bias in the wording of the very first paragraph. They don't know or they do. Either way, it's the crux of our problems.

The NCAA is promising to bring better resources to the Women's Division I Basketball Tournament after videos and images of the women's facilities sparked outrage among fans and athletes online. Ahead of March Madness, student-athletes and coaches shared comparisons between the men's training facilities and a single rack of dumbbells and one stationary bike for the women. The NCAA initially blamed the lack of space and vowed to improve the conditions. Lynn Holzman, the NCAA's women's basketball VP, said the plan was to provide more space and equipment to teams that further advanced in the tournament. "We want to be

You might have noticed that you've been shelling out more for things like houses, gas, and cars. And it's been hard to get your hands on things like fitness gear, sofas, and roller skates. That's because America is reopening to a more expensive economy than the one that existed pre-pandemic. For now, it has a lot to do with a shortage of materials that manufacturers need to make these things. When supply is low, prices climb for manufacturers, and consumers end up paying more for the end product. The materials shortage has to do with several factors. The work-from-home economy

Former President George W.

Six of the victims were Asian.Though police said that there was no evidence of a racial motive, advocates have claimed that the event is only the latest in a wave of anti-Asian-American hate crimes.

While the news of the day was Joe Biden tripping and grinding himself into the stairs of Air Force One, a much bigger story happened just prior.Secretary of State Antony Blinken decided to invite the Chinese delegation to Alaska to hold diplomatic talks. Holding a publicly-broadcast meeting is typically something you do when you know exactly how things are going to go. The last thing you want is to see your country humiliated by a tyrannical regime. Yet Blinken, clearly not prepared for the job he holds, ended up making the United States look absolutely pathetic in the face of the communists.Here’s one of the clips of Blinken getting owned.

A new study from a Los Angeles hospital pushes for injecting men with the female sex hormone progesterone to treat COVID-19. The trial, carried out by pulmonologist Sara Ghandehari of the Cedars-Sinai hospital in Los Angeles, recruited 40 male patients hospitalized with COVID-19. “As an ICU doctor, I was struck by the gender disparity among COVID-19 patients who were very sick, remained in the hospital, and needed ventilators,” she emphasized. “One group acted as a control sample, for comparison, and received only the standard medical care given at that time for the disease. The experimental group, meanwhile, also received 100-milligram injections of progesterone twice daily for five days
