I hadn't heard the press conference. It's disappointing both Trump and Vance would go there.

Oh Crump is the attorney? He's had some success in civil rights cases, but this truly is weak sauce. This is throwing a bunch of shit at a wall and hoping something sticks.

If there is anyone who owes anyone anything regarding slavery, I would say the entire planet owes the UK. Prior to the early 19th century, slavery was an accepted universal practice.

Harvard 'owns' the remains of people Wait. I thought this was about photos. Harvard has possession of their bodies? If that is the case, I still suspect that legally, Harvard is entitled to keep the bodies. Or maybe not. Legally, it doesn't matter to me. Because regardless of the law, if the descen...

As for the moon landing, Candace Owens interviewed Bart Sibrel last month or so. He's a prick, with a point. He shouldn't bumrush astronauts like that, they owe him nothing -- but the questions he raises about the moon landing are legitimate.
