Democrat Politician Poses Maskless in Room Full of Masked Children

Democratic Georgia gubernatorial candidate is facing backlash after her tweet showing a photo of her sitting maskless amongst a class of masked children went viral Friday.

Abrams visited Glennwood Elementary School as a way to partake in the third annual African-American read in, according to Fox News. Three photos were reportedly taken of Abrams and tweeted by the school’s principal, Dr. Holly Brookins. In a now deleted tweet, Abrams quote tweeted the photo of her and the children from the principal saying that her visit was “spectacular, delightful, and outstanding.”

The incident comes after the Decatur City Commission reinstated its “mandatory mask ordinance” until Feb. 22.

Abrams’ campaign manager issued a statement from the Abrams campaign on Twitter.

“It is shameful that our opponents are using a Black History Month reading event for Georgia children as the impetus for a false political attack,” the statement reads, “and it is pitiful and predictable that our opponents continue to look for opportunities to distract from their failed records when it comes to protecting public health…” (Read more from “Democrat Politician Poses Maskless in Room Full of Masked Children” HERE)

No Fun at These Games: Inside China’s Horror Olympics’ Machine Where Children Are Beaten, Athletes Picked in DNA Selection

By The Sun. From humiliating punishments to invasive DNA testing, China’s prowess on the Olympic stage has come at a hefty price to thousands of children.

Communist Party-backed sports officials ruthlessly select and train competitors from an early age – with children as young as four being enlisted to train for glory at the Olympics.

With a colossal population of 1.4 billion, China has a sprawling state-backed operation that puts young athletes through brutal training regiments to prepare them for the world stage. . .

The state sends out scouts to hunt for tens of thousands of children for full-time training at more than 2,000 government-run sports schools.

Tests for selection see kids being given brutal challenges such as press-ups, endurance running and bench presses that prioritize overall strength over specific skills.

Vladimir Putin ‘Falls Asleep’ at Beijing Olympics as Ukrainian Team Is Introduced

By New York Post. Vladimir Putin’s not losing any sleep over the Ukraine conflict.

The Russian president appeared to doze off during the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics Friday as Ukraine’s national team marched through the stadium.

The world leader was caught on camera slumped in his chair with his eyes closed as the athletes were introduced and their national anthem blared, according to the UK Independent.

Putin’s eyes then flitted open and he was up and at ‘em by the time the Russian Olympic Committee team entered Beijing’s National Stadium, standing to salute them. (Read more from “Vladimir Putin ‘Falls Asleep’ at Beijing Olympics as Ukrainian Team Is Introduced” HERE)

Spotify Appears to Take New Action Against Joe Rogan

Spotify appears to have removed approximately 70 episodes of Joe Rogan’s “The Joe Rogan Experience” as the company faces continued left-wing pressure to boot Rogan, their top performer, from the platform.

“The apparent removal of the episodes, all of which were recorded years before the pandemic began, was spotted by JREMissing,” CNET reported. “The fan-made website uses Spotify’s API to compare available episodes to a database of all episodes recorded.”

Gizmodo reported that it “manually checked” JREMissing’s claim that the episodes had been removed and “confirmed the site’s assessment.”

The move comes after Spotify CEO Daniel Ek reportedly told employees on Wednesday that the platform does not have editorial discretion over Joe Rogan’s #1-rated podcast. The Los Angeles Times reported that the company does not screen his guest list and only takes action after episodes are published.

The article was primarily based off sources who appeared eager to cast the company in a negative light and further put pressure on it to take action against Rogan. (Read more from “Spotify Appears to Take New Action Against Joe Rogan” HERE)

Viewers to Boycott Genocide Games; Record Low Ratings Expected; Should the US Be Boycotting the Olympics?

By Breitbart. A Morning Consult poll is being framed around how viewership for the Winter Olympics in Beijing, China, may attract fewer viewers than the Tokyo Summer Games. But a major reason for the lack of interest is buried: 40 percent of Americans said the reason they aren’t tuning in is that the Communist Chinese Party is in charge of the event.

“Forty percent of those who don’t intend to watch pointed to China hosting the Games as a reason for tuning out, including 31 percent who cited it as a ‘major’ reason,” the polling group said of its survey. “Among Republicans who said they don’t expect to watch, 56 percent pointed to China as a reason, versus 28 percent among Democrats who don’t plan to watch.”

Political affiliation also showed up in the polling even without citing the communist Chinese hosts.

“Data collected during the Tokyo Games suggested that Democrats were significantly more likely to watch the Olympics than independents or Republicans. New data suggests the same partisan split will carry over to Beijing,” Morning Consult reported. “Fifty-seven percent of Democrats said they plan to watch at least some of the Beijing Games, compared with 40 percent of Republicans and 35 percent of independents.” (Read more from “Viewers to Boycott Genocide Games; Record Low Ratings Expected” HERE)

Should the US Be Boycotting the Olympics?

By Fox News. Olympic City USA locals weighed in on whether the United States should be boycotting the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics. . .

Locals in Colorado Springs, also known as Olympic City USA, were mixed as to whether they supported the 2022 Winter games.

“For one thing, I’m not really happy with China,” one man told Fox News. “They’re phony.”

“The Olympics have been pretty meaningless for the last several years,” he continued. “It’s all about politics.” (Read more from “Should the US Be Boycotting the Olympics?” HERE)

Bloomberg Accidentally Reports That Russia Invaded Ukraine

. . .The financial news site accidentally reported that Russia had invaded Ukraine Friday afternoon with a headline on its homepage.

“Live: Russia invades Ukraine,” read a jarring headline on Bloomberg’s homepage at around 4 p.m.

It stayed up for about 30 minutes, according to Olga Lautman, a Russian analyst who posted the message on social media.

Users who clicked on the eye-popping story — which comes as Russian troops mass on the Ukrainian border and US officials warn of a potential invasion — were shown an error page.

“I went on the site and saw the breaking news but knew it wasn’t real because I deal with Ukraine and will be one of the first to know,” Lautman told The Post. “It is bizarre and a pretty big mistake to make considering this is a potential large scale invasion and everyone is on edge.”

Lawsuit Claims Foreign Powers Sought to Interfere in 2016 Election to Help Hillary Clinton

On Feb. 3, long-time Trump associate Felix Sater filed a cross-complaint in a New York federal court. The complaint alleges that Russian and Kazakhstan-connected individuals and entities conducted “a shadow intelligence operation of Sater and Trump for the purpose of manufacturing information to harm Donald Trump politically,” including by providing Christopher Steele a PowerPoint presentation riddled with lies Steele later fed to the FBI.

Sater’s cross suit comes nearly three years after the City of Almaty, Kazakhstan, and BTA Bank filed suit against Sater, two of the companies he owned, a former business associate, and that associate’s LLCs, in City of Almaty, Kazakhstan v. Sater.

In that lawsuit, filed in May 2019, Almaty and BTA Bank alleged that Sater and the other defendants helped Mukhtar Ablyazov, the former chairman of the BTA Bank, and Viktor Khrapunov, the former mayor of the City of Almaty, launder money the duo had stolen from the plaintiffs. In the case, the plaintiffs sought recovery of millions of dollars in stolen funds, based on claims of fraud, conspiracy, unjust enrichment, and conversion.

While that case has been pending in a federal district court in New York since spring 2019, on Thursday Sater filed for the first time counterclaims against Almaty and BTA Bank. In yesterday’s filing, Sater also added the Republic of Kazakhstan and Arcanum (Asia) Ltd. as parties.

Lincoln Project Releases Trump 2024 Campaign Ad

In a hilarious, accidental promotional video for the Trump 2024 campaign, the Lincoln Project showed its talents extend beyond staging fake racism and getting in trouble for sexual harassment.

After the Biden administration announced a raid on an ISIS operative during which the terrorist set off a suicide bomb, killing himself and numerous women and children including members of his own family, the Lincoln Project made a video showing Biden’s announcement of the raid side-by-side with clips of former President Donald Trump making an announcement of a similar nature.

What is apparently lost on the oblivious LP team that mocked up the video, however, is that sane people watching will likely walk away thinking: “Gosh, I miss him.”

Biden’s announcement is rambly and full of insincere politicianese, compounded by the fact that the president has demonstrated on numerous occasions that he often doesn’t know what he’s saying. (Read more from “Lincoln Project Releases Trump 2024 Campaign Ad” HERE)

Man Receives Life Sentence After Killing Friend Over Mayonnaise

An Iowa man received a life sentence Monday after he ran over and killed his friend with his truck following a bar fight that started when he put mayonnaise on his friend’s food.

Kristofer Erlbacher received the life sentence for a deadly incident that started Dec. 17, 2020, while he and the victim, Caleb Solberg, were at a bar with a third person. Erlbacher spread mayonnaise on Solberg’s food, prompting Solberg to punch him and the violence to escalate from there, according to the Des Moines Register. . .

After that fight stopped, Erlbacher left the café, got into his 2001 Chevrolet pickup truck and used it to crash into Pryor’s vehicle while Pryor occupied it, the Des Moines Register reported. He then slammed his truck again into the vehicle when Pryor left the vehicle to survey the damage, according to a criminal complaint.

Erlbacher later crashed his vehicle into Solberg, who did not die in the first collision, according to the Des Moines Register. Erlbacher crashed into Solberg a second time before running over him again. Solberg died of his injuries. (Read more from “Man Receives Life Sentence After Killing Friend Over Mayonnaise” HERE)

Private School Forces 2-Year-Olds To Mask During Nap Time

A private school with two locations in northern Virginia is forcing students 2 years and older to wear masks for the entire school day, including during nap time, a parent with twins in the school told the Daily Caller.

Halston Davis, a father with twin boys enrolled at Karter Schools, told the Daily Caller that his 3-year-old preemies are required to wear face coverings for the duration of the school day, despite an executive order from Republican Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin repealing mask mandates in all schools. Davis alleges the school’s marketing director told his family masks were not required for the entirety of in-classroom learning when initially interviewing with the school.

Davis said he feels his boys are “falling behind” because “seeing other people talk is important for their development.” Davis and his wife attended an in-person meeting with Karter Schools’ leadership and claimed they asked for “flexibility” when masking their children “during instruction.” The school allegedly denied their request.

Karter Schools requires staff, students and parents to wear masks on school property regardless of vaccination status, according to COVID-19 FAQs sent to parents. Children were also required to present a negative test before returning to school if they traveled following winter break, per the FAQ form.

Tucker Carlson Reveals Democratic Lawmaker Accused His Show of Having Ties to Russia (VIDEO)

Democrats sure have a habit of accusing those they disagree with of conspiring with Russia, especially lately. That’s not just the case with lawmakers from the other side of the aisle, though White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki did accuse Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) of “parroting Russian talking points” for his position on Ukraine entering NATO. It extends to journalists as well. A recent and chilling example includes Tucker Carlson, who on his Friday night show of “Tucker Carlson Tonight” revealed that Rep. Jim Cooper (D-TN) accused his program of having ties to Russia.

“At an earlier age, this is the point when Matt Lee would’ve gone to the podium and punched him right in the face beer there was a time in this country when calling a man disloyal was a grave and serious charge. You cannot let that stand,” Carlson pointed out. He was referring to an exchange between the AP reporter and Ned Price, the State Department spokesperson, during which Price was less than forthcoming with his evidence that Russia is conducting a “fabricated attack” against Ukraine.

Carlson then revealed that Cooper on Wednesday asked during a closed-door briefing in Congress if the show has ties to Russia. “We are not tied to Russia, of course. It’s a cable television program. He knows that. But that is not the point. We have criticized the Biden administration’s Ukraine policy. So in retaliation for that, Jim Cooper has asked the Intel agencies to dig up dirt on us,” Carlson alleged.

The host also referenced a scandal involving the National Security Agency (NSA), when a whistleblower came forward last summer to reveal that the agency spied on Carlson, as was later confirmed.

“To be clear, that is not allowed. It is illegal to use the U.S. Government to settle partisan scores or to silent opposition journalists. It is also, by the way, illegal to secretly monitor their electronic communication. We are not speculating about it. The NSA admitted that,” Carlson also reminded.
