Majority Disapprove of Biden, Say U.S. Heading in Wrong Direction

/0 Comments/in , /by

More than 50 percent of Americans disapprove of President Biden’s job performance and 71 percent believe the nation is headed in the wrong direction, according to a poll released Sunday.

The president’s job approval ratings have been tanking since April, when 52 percent gave him a thumbs up and 39 percent disapproved, according to an NBC News poll.

The latest survey, which follows the track of other polls, showed Biden underwater, with 54 percent disapproving and 42 percent approving.

The paltry poll numbers come just days before a crucial gubernatorial contest in Virginia pitting Democrat Terry McAuliffe against Republican Glenn Youngkin, a race that’s seen as a bellwether for next year’s midterms. ​

“Democrats face a country whose opinion of President Biden has turned sharply to the negative since April,” said Democratic pollster Jeff Horwitt of Hart Research Associates, who conducted the survey with Republican pollster Bill McInturff of Public Opinion Strategies.

‘This Is Absurd’ MMA Fans Disgusted by ‘Horrific’ Inter-Gender Fight (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in /by

MMA fans were left disgusted after a female fighter was battered by a male opponent during an inter-gender fight in Poland. One viewer described the scene as ‘horrific’ as the ref was forced to stop the bout.

Ula Siekacz is an arm wrestler and fitness instructor who regularly shows off her bulging biceps online.

But they were not enough to defend her against Piotrek Muaboy – who describes himself as ‘185cm of pure sex’.

A video emerged online of the show held at a hotel in the Polish city of Czestochowa.

In it, the pair can be seen trading fairly tame blows before Muaboy lands a couple of solid blows to Siekacz’s face. (Read more from “‘This Is Absurd’ MMA Fans Disgusted by ‘Horrific’ Inter-Gender Fight” HERE)

Fully Vaccinated WH Press Secretary Tests Positive for COVID-19

/0 Comments/in , /by

White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Sunday that she had tested positive for COVID-19, days after pulling out of the president’s overseas trip due to a family emergency. Psaki is vaccinated, and said she is only experiencing mild symptons.

Psaki said in a statement on Sunday that emergency was “members of my household testing positive for COVID-19.”

“Since then, I have quarantined and tested negative (via PCR) for COVID on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday,” Psaki said. “However, today, I tested positive for COVID. While I have not had close contact in person with the president or senior members of the White House staff since Wednesday — and tested negative for four days after that last contact — I am disclosing today’s positive test out of an abundance of transparency. I last saw the president on Tuesday, when we sat outside more than six feet apart, and wore masks.” (Read more from “Fully Vaccinated WH Press Secretary Tests Positive for COVID-19” HERE)

China’s 2021 Five Year Plan Announced – Biotechnology and Information Technology Warfare Dominance

/0 Comments/in , /by

China is preparing for biological warfare and is mobilizing all its military and civilian resources in that effort.

The recently translated Chinese Communist Party’s 2021 14th Five-year Plan National Key Research and Development Program has a subsection “Research on pathogenesis and epidemic prevention technology system,” which states a goal to:

Establish a real-time information analysis and early warning mechanism based on the pathogen database to be able to analyze the variation and evolution of known epidemic pathogens in peacetime, and to be able to respond quickly to emergent pathogens and analyze the variation and evolution of pathogens in wartime.”

The program will identify “8-10 pathogens” and “establish a combination of civilian and combat pathogen data monitoring and analysis application system.”

The 14th Five Year Plan goals are the culmination and extension of the 2016 13th Five-Year Plan’s Science and Technology Military-Civilian Fusion Program, which was launched by the Scientific and Technical Committee affiliated with the Central Military Commission.

That program incorporated all Chinese universities, pharmaceutical companies and “civilian” research centers, like the Wuhan Institute of Virology, into the People’s Liberation Army’s biotechnology warfare effort.

The research and development tasks outlined in the 2021 14th Five Year Plan are:

1. Discovery of pathogenic mechanisms and targets for the transmission of major infectious diseases,

2. Discovery, traceability and early warning prediction of major infectious disease pathogens,

4. Research on novel vaccine design and platform system,

4. Clinical control of major infectious diseases,

5. The establishment of an integrated system for the prevention and control of major emerging and emergent infectious diseases.

A Key Project of the Chinese Communist Party’s The 14th Five Year Plan is “Biotechnology and Information Technology Fusion (BT and IT Fusion),” the target areas being:

1. Development of information storage systems based on DNA principles

2. Construction and development of intelligent biological systems for life-non-life integration

3. Demonstration of the application of BT and IT convergence technology in health medicine scenarios

According to the translated documents, the goals of the Key Project, which incorporates the use of artificial intelligence, are:

build DNA storage, brain-like intelligence and human-computer interaction, biological knowledge mapping, programmable cellular intelligence, intelligent medical and other cross-fertilization technologies, and promote big data-driven life science knowledge discovery and transformation applications; spawn a number of life and health-oriented disruptive new technologies, and promote the development of new economic models.”

All the data-driven research described in China’s 14th Five Year Plan “involves the collection, conservation, utilization and provision of human genetic resources.”

Although China will attempt to “achieve full coverage of pathogenic research including viruses, bacteria, fungi and parasites,” the “core targets are important respiratory viruses such as coronaviruses and influenza viruses,” for which molecular biology will be used “to analyze the key factors affecting the transmission of viruses.”

Clearly, the COVID-19 pandemic has not slowed China’s ambitions in regard to biotechnology-information technology fusion and its applications in biological warfare.

Unfortunately for us, the U.S. government is asleep at the wheel.

Uh-Oh: Biden’s Poll Numbers Are Even Worse Than They Seem

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Washington Examiner. President Joe Biden’s dropping poll numbers are worse than they seem. A deep dive into the data shows two overlooked problems that most news stories haven’t caught: an intensity problem and a national mood problem.

An intensity problem happens when a politician’s “hard” negative ratings rise much higher than his or her “hard” positive ratings. Voters who hold strongly negative views are less likely to shift to the positive side than are voters who hold only somewhat negative views — and that spells trouble in the next election.

Put another way, Biden’s supporters tend to be only so-so in their esteem, while opponents are more passionate in their enmity.

In the recent Quinnipiac University poll , for example, Biden’s overall job approval rating is 40%, with 53% disapproving. That’s not good. But when you look at internal numbers that didn’t make it into the headlines, it gets worse: The number of voters who strongly disapprove of the job the president is doing is more than twice that of those who strongly approve, 45% to 20%.

The same is true for Biden’s personal popularity. Among voters, he’s 46% favorable and 51% unfavorable in an Economist poll . However, the very unfavorable is bigger than the very favorable, 40% to 26%. (Read more from “Uh-Oh: Biden’s Poll Numbers Are Even Worse Than They Seem” HERE)

57% Say Economy Worse Under Biden, 60% Blame Democrats

By Breitbart. A clear majority of Americans say the economy has worsened under His Fraudulency Joe Biden, and 60 percent put the blame squarely on Democrats.

Rasmussen Reports asked 1,000 likely voters, “Has the U.S. economy gotten better or worse since Joe Biden became president, or is the economy about the same?”

A clear majority of 57 percent said the economy is worse, only 21 percent said better, and ten percent said “about the same.”

I’m curious who the 21 percent are who say the economy has improved.

4 Versions of Scathing Anti-Biden Rap ‘Let’s Go Brandon’ Now in Itunes Top 10

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden’s first term is taking a bad rap — times four.

What started as one chart-topping anti-Biden hip-hop anthem has quadrupled into four hit tracks in iTunes’ Top 10 on Friday, as conservatives flock to buy the tunes and prove their purchasing power.

All four songs are titled “Let’s Go Brandon” — a phrase that has become a right-wing rallying cry in recent weeks.

The phrase originated during a NASCAR race in Alabama on Oct. 2. At that event, crowds were caught on camera chanting “F – – k Joe Biden,” but an NBC anchor insisted they were actually chanting “Let’s Go Brandon” — in reference to a win by driver Brandon Brown.

“Let’s Go Brandon” began trending on Twitter, with some right-wingers claiming NBC was involved in a cover-up by refusing to allow any criticism of the president on their network. The phrase has now been co-opted by conservatives, with several rappers creating tracks to troll Democrats.

Turns Out Alexander Vindman Is The Dopey Hack We All Thought He Was

/0 Comments/in , /by

Alexander Vindman, the retired U.S. Army lieutenant colonel who helped plot the botched impeachment of former President Donald Trump in what amounted to a failed coup attempt, thinks Tucker Carlson should be “censured” for saying things Vindman doesn’t like about the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol.

In a tweet Thursday responding to a trailer Carlson posted for his new documentary, “Patriot Purge,” Vindman asked, idiotically, “How is this different than yelling fire in a crowded theater? Carlson is attempting to incite a riotous mob. He should be censured. I’d like to hear the arguments for/against this being protected speech.”

Well since you asked, the argument for Carlson’s documentary being protected speech is right there in the Bill of Rights, on the first page, where it says Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech or of the press. That includes reporting and commentary that some people, even disgraced former Army officers who try to remove duly elected presidents, disagree with.

It’s embarrassing for Vindman that this needs to be spelled out for him, but “protected speech” under the First Amendment includes pretty much everything except a handful of specific situations, none of which remotely have to do with Carlson’s documentary.

For example, you can’t call for imminent lawless action (or incitement). You also can’t issue what’s called a “true threat,” which the U.S. Supreme Court in 2003 defined as “those statements where the speaker means to communicate a serious expression of an intent to commit an act of unlawful violence to a particular individual or group of individuals.” Fighting words is another, quite limited category of unprotected speech that’s restricted to face-to-face interactions meant to provoke a violent reaction from the person being addressed. Not covered in any of these categories is, say, political reporting and commentary that Vindman doesn’t like.

Report: ‘Rust’ Producers Were Warned That Assistant Director Would ‘Kill Someone Someday’

/0 Comments/in , /by

According to a new report in Hollywood trade publication, Variety, producers on the set of “Rust” were warned that assistant director Dave Halls didn’t take safety protocols seriously while working on a previous movie.

Variety spoke to five different crew members who worked on the set of “One Way,” another production Halls worked on in February prior to “Rust.” Both films shared the same production companies — Thomasville Pictures, and Short Porch Pictures. All told the outlet that Halls had created an unsafe working environment on the set.

“That man is a liability,” one crew member on that film told Variety. “He’s going to f***ing kill someone someday, and you’re going to be responsible.”

Another anonymous source said Halls allowed people who were not professional stunt drivers to drive cars in an “open field.” The crew member told Variety that he explicitly warned producers that Halls was putting the safety of the crew “in jeopardy.” (Read more from “Report: ‘Rust’ Producers Were Warned That Assistant Director Would ‘Kill Someone Someday’” HERE)

‘We Got to Take These Motherf–Kers Out’: Professor Calls White People ‘Villains’

/1 Comment/in , /by

A professor at New Jersey’s Rutgers University said she believes that white people are historically “committed to being villains” — and that her unfiltered solution to addressing white supremacy would be to “take them out.”

Brittney Cooper, a professor of women’s and gender studies and Africana studies, addressed the history of colonialism during a discussion last month about critical race theory with the Root Institute.

“I think that white people are committed to being villains in the aggregate,” Cooper said during the online conference.

She said white people don’t trust society to redistribute power to diverse groups of people “because they are so corrupt.” . . .

“The thing I want to say to you is we got to take these motherf–kers out,” she said, though she quickly added that she “doesn’t believe in a project of violence.” (Read more from “‘We Got to Take These Motherf–Kers Out’: Professor Calls White People ‘Villains’” HERE)

Judge Blocks Biden Admin From Firing Unvaccinated Employees Whose Religious Exemptions Are Pending

/0 Comments/in , /by

A Washington, D.C., district court judge temporarily blocked the Biden administration from firing unvaccinated federal employees who sued the government over religious exemptions.

“None of the civilian employee plaintiffs will be subject to discipline while his or her request for a religious exception is pending,” District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly ordered, Fox News reports.

Active duty military personnel whose religious exemptions have been denied also cannot be disciplined while the outcome of their appeals are pending.

Twenty plaintiffs sued President Biden and members of his administration in their official capacity over the president’s Sept. 9 executive order mandating vaccines for federal employees, according to civil action filed Sunday. (Fox News)
