COVID Super Spreaders: Maskless Democrats Who Fled Texas Test Positive for Virus; Hypocrite: Texas Dem Tweets About Making the Rest of Us Suffer With a Mask Mandate

/1 Comment/in , , , /by

By USA Today. Three Texas House Democrats have tested positive for the coronavirus in Washington, D.C., according to Texas House Democratic Caucus leadership.

They’re among nearly 60 lawmakers who fled the state last week to break quorum in the House, part of an effort to block the passage of a GOP-led elections bill. Most members are staying in the same hotel.

One member found out about their positive test result late Friday evening, but they did not have symptoms, caucus officials said. All House lawmakers were alerted and received a rapid test immediately after the member’s positive result.

Two additional members tested positive in a rapid test Saturday morning, and one has mild symptoms, the caucus said. . .

The three members are vaccinated. The caucus did not release their names. (Read more from “COVID Super Spreaders: Maskless Dems Who Fled Texas Test Positive for Virus” HERE)

Texas Democrat Who Fled to DC Tweets About Making the Rest of Us Suffer With a Mask Mandate

By Townhall. One of the Texan Democrats who traveled was Rep. Gene Wu (D-Houston), who, as Katie highlighted, has some pretty insufferable tweets.

In his one of his more recent tweets, Wu quipped he is going to ask to ask President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris to institute a mask policy, as he mockingly responded to a tweet.

While this article was being written, the tweet Wu was responding to became unavailable, as the owner deleted the account. It was of Vice President Kamala Harris speaking to the members in an indoor room, while she and others were without masks. . .

Despite CDC guidelines and federal mandating all passengers, regardless of vaccination status wear a mask while at the airport, on the airplane, and using other methods of travel, Wu and his colleagues all appeared without masks on their charter bus and private plan to D.C.

In First Felony Sentence, Capitol Protester Receives Prison Time

/1 Comment/in , /by

A Florida man who breached the Senate floor on Jan. 6 while carrying a Trump flag was the first Capitol rioter sentenced with a felony offense.

Prosecutors are seeking a minimum 18-month sentence for Paul Allard Hodgkins. In a July 14 court filing, they alleged that he, “like each rioter, contributed to the collective threat to democracy” as they forced lawmakers, reporters, staff and Vice President Mike Pence into hiding as they convened to certify President Joe Biden’s victory.

He was sentenced to eight months in prison.

Video footage described in the report shows Hodgkins, 38, sporting a Trump T-shirt and flag on the Senate floor. At one point he took a selfie with the self-described shaman, who is also awaiting trial for participating in the riot. . .

Though Hodgkins was never accused of assaulting anyone or damaging property, prosecutors noted that when he boarded a bus from Tampa, Florida, to D.C. he had rope, protective goggles and latex gloves, and said that demonstrated that he was prepared for violence.

WATCH: Massive Meteor Fireball Visible for Nearly 30 Seconds Over Puerto Rico

/0 Comments/in , /by

A large meteor was visible at 4.55 local time this Friday from almost all of Puerto Rico as reported by the Caribbean Astronomy Society (SAC).

“Although most meteors are only visible for a few seconds, this event was significant since images that we managed to capture show that it was visible for 27 seconds, that is almost half a minute,” said Eddie Irizarry, vice president of the SAC.

“It looked bigger and bigger, it didn’t look like a common meteor,” said Idaly Correa, who witnessed the spectacular sighting from the municipality of Guayanilla.

The SAC director clarified that despite the long duration of the meteor, it was not space debris, but a natural meteor, that is, a space rock disintegrating through the atmosphere.

Despite Building Success Through Conservative Support, Black Rifle Coffee Wants To Flush ‘Repugnant’ Americans

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A feature in The New York Times Magazine paints top executives of the Black Rifle Coffee Company as saying that some elements of America’s conservative political spectrum are not anyone with whom the company wants to be affiliated.

“You can’t let sections of your customers hijack your brand and say, ‘This is who you are,’” said Mat Best the company’s executive vice president. “It’s like, no, no, we define that.” . . .

Company CEO Evan Hafer said that last year, when the company said it was not an active supporter of Kyle Rittenhouse, who has been charged with murder over the shooting of rioters in Kenosha, Wisconsin, last year, it was a watershed moment because it separated the company from customers he was happy to be rid of.

After Meeting with COVID-Infected Texas Dems, Kamala Harris Goes to Walter Reed

/0 Comments/in , /by

In the wake of her meeting with Texas Democrats, Kamala Harris is visiting Walter Reed Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland.

Three of the Texas lawmakers have tested positive for COVID-19, causing speculation that Kamala Harris’s visit is related to her being exposed to the virus. However, the White House claims she’s going for a “routine doctor’s appointment.”

The White House also claims that Harris was not in close contact with the infected Texas lawmakers.

“Based on the timeline of these positive tests, it was determined that the vice president and her staff present at the meeting were not at risk of exposure because they were not in close contact with those who tested positive and therefore do not need to be tested or quarantined,” Harris’s spokeswoman Symone Sanders said in a statement.

The Beautiful Secret to a Long Life by the World’s Oldest Living Man

/0 Comments/in , , /by

At the tender age of 112, Puerto Rican Emilio Flores Márquez has shared the secret to his longevity — and it’s not what you might expect.

The great-grandfather, who is a month shy of 113, was recently acknowledged as the world’s oldest living male by Guinness World Records. And the great-grandfather puts his impressive age down to the simple lesson he learned from his father as a young child: to love everyone.

“My father raised me with love, loving every one … He always told me and my siblings to do good, to share everything with others. Besides, Christ lives in me,” Márquez explained to the Guinness World Records, as reported in the Daily Mail. . .

Although he had a pacemaker fitted at the age of 101, and is suffering from hearing loss, the centenarian is in good health. With his birthday approaching on August 8, he can hopefully continue to spread this message of love to his five grandchildren, five great-grandchildren, and all those who have the blessing of hearing his inspiring story.

Wikipedia Co-Founder BLASTS Site for Left-Wing Bias: ‘The Word for It Is Propaganda’ (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Fox News. Wikipedia co-founder Larry Sanger continued his criticism this week of the online encyclopedia that he helped create, citing the page on President Biden as an example of its leftist bias.

“You can trust it to give a reliably establishment point of view on pretty much everything. Can you trust it always to give you the truth? Well, it depends on what you think the truth is,” Sanger said Wednesday on LockdownTV with Freddie Sayers.

Sanger feels Wikipedia has changed considerably since he founded it alongside Jimmy Wales in 2001 and has been a critic for more than a decade. He said the site is no longer committed to neutrality and doesn’t feature different points of view.

“Wikipedia is known, now, by everyone to have a lot of influence in the world … so there is a very big, nasty, complex game being played behind the scenes to make the articles say what somebody wants them to say,” Sanger said, adding the site has a liberal bias.

“The Biden article, if you look at it, has very little by way of the concerns that Republicans have had about him,” Sanger said. “So if you want to have anything remotely resembling the Republican point of view about Biden, you’re not going to get it from the article.” (Read more from “Wikipedia Co-Founder BLASTS Site for Left-Wing Bias: ‘The Word for It Is Propaganda’ (VIDEO)” HERE)

Wikipedia Co-Founder Says Site Is Now ‘Propaganda’ for Left-Leaning ‘Establishment’

By New York Post. Wikipedia co-founder Larry Sanger has warned that the website can no longer be trusted — insisting it is now just “propaganda” for the left-leaning “establishment.” . . .

Now, he insisted, conservative voices are “sternly warned if not kicked out” if they try to add a different take on establishment views — which Sanger deemed “propaganda.”

“You can’t cite Fox News on socio-political issues. It’s just banned now,” he insisted of the apparent clampdown on respected conservative voices.

“It means that if a controversy does not appear in the mainstream centre-left media, then it’s not going to appear on Wikipedia,” he said. . .

“If only one version of the facts is allowed then that gives a huge incentive to wealthy and powerful people to seize control of things like Wikipedia in order to shore up their power,” he said.

UFC’s Jorge Masvidal Slams ‘Coward’ Colin Kaepernick for Wearing Fidel Castro T-Shirt (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

UFC fighter Jorge Masvidal took a swing at former NFL player and anthem protester Colin Kaepernick for parading around in a Fidel Castro t-shirt while claiming to protest oppression.

In a July 12 tweet, the Cuban-American UFC fighter slammed Kaepernick for his hypocrisy even as protests rise against the communist regime in Cuba.

“My father escaped Cuba when he was 14 years old,” Masvidal said in the video attached to his tweet. “And I’ve only heard the horror stories since I could process thoughts of how shitty this communist regime, killing machine is. So, I just want to shed some light on Cuba — big SOS signal for them.”

“This oppression has been going on for 61 years,” Masvidal continued. “This is not just because of the pandemic, or it’s not just because they ran out of medicine — they’ve been out of medicine and they’ve been out of resources and food because of the corrupt government and the extreme corruption over there where only a few at the top eat and everyone has to suffer. Those days have to end.”

Later, in an Instagram post, Madvidal recalled how Colin Kaepernick wore a t-shirt praising Cuba’s communist dictator, Fidel Castro, and added that “cowards” like Kaepernick should be sent to live in Cuba so they can experience real oppression.

Trump: People Are Refusing Vaccine Because They ‘Don’t Trust the Election Results’

/1 Comment/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump claimed on Sunday that one of the reasons some people are unwilling to take the COVID-19 vaccine is because they “don’t trust the Election results” from November 2020.

The former president’s comments come after President Joe Biden’s administration failed to meet its vaccination goal to ensure 70% of the nation’s adults receive at least one shot by July 4. Still, 161 million people are fully vaccinated and 68% of adults have received at least one dose, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Trump has touted his administration did a “great job” in regard to handling the coronavirus pandemic through programs like Operation Warp Speed, which saw vaccine development and disbursement happen in record time. While he has encouraged people to get vaccinated, a large group of his supporters has erred on the side of caution surrounding the COVID-19 jabs.

“Joe Biden kept talking about how good of a job he’s doing on the distribution of the Vaccine … He’s not doing well at all,” Trump wrote in a tweemail, adding, “He’s way behind schedule, and people are refusing to take the Vaccine because they don’t trust his Administration, they don’t trust the Election results and they certainly don’t trust the Fake News, which is refusing to tell the Truth.” (Read more from “Trump: People Are Refusing Vaccine Because They ‘Don’t Trust the Election Results'” HERE)
