Woke Medical Association Scrubs DEI Info From Website After Brutal Report

/2 Comments/in , /by

The Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) moved to restrict and remove information from its website after a report revealed its full-throated commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion policies.

Last week, Do No Harm, an organization committed to de-politicizing medicine, published an exhaustive report detailing how the AAMC wielded its influence and prestige to push DEI and other leftist policies. The AAMC facilitates much of medical education in the United States and administers the MCAT, the test students take to get into medical school.

After the Do No Harm report dropped, the AAMC this week pulled information from its website on grants it had received, and restricted access to information about a database that tracked the race and sex of medical personnel.

Do No Harm Senior Director of Programs Laura Morgan, who authored the report on the AAMC, told The Daily Wire that it was strange for the organization to remove the information.

“Considering their laser focus on all things DEI, it’s curious that the AAMC would take down a web page that described the federal and private grants it receives, especially when it contains information on programs that are DEI-focused,” Morgan said.

Johnson Attempts Plan C to Avert Government Shutdown

/2 Comments/in , /by

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) on Friday announced yet another plan to avert a government shutdown.

“Yeah, yeah, we have a plan. We’re expecting votes this morning, so you all stay tuned. We’ve got a plan,” Johnson said Friday morning as he entered the Capitol building.

The government will shut down if Congress fails to pass a spending bill by the end of Friday.

The House rejected a short-term spending bill after Republican leadership scrapped a compromise plan with Democrats that was riddled with Democrat carveouts, and benefits to Big Pharma, among other controversial issues. (Read more from “Johnson Attempts Plan C to Avert Government Shutdown” HERE)

Tucker Carlson Says Any GOP Senator Who Votes ‘Against Tulsi Gabbard’s Confirmation’ Is ‘Enemy Of The United States’

/1 Comment/in , /by

Daily Caller News Foundation co-founder Tucker Carlson said Thursday that any Republican Senator who ends up voting against confirming former Democratic Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard as President-elect Donald Trump’s Director of National Intelligence (DNI) is America’s “enemy.”

Trump picked Gabbard to be his DNI on Nov. 13, but the former congresswoman and member of the National Guard has faced backlash from numerous national security officials that are tied to groups targeting “election misinformation,” left-wing organizations, intelligence agencies and defense contractors. Carlson, during his speech at Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest, argued that Republican senators who vote against Gabbard are signalling opposition to meaningful government reform.

“She is the critical appointment because she has the ability to declassify the truth about what your government has been doing in your name with your money for decades. No one doubts that Tulsi Gabbard’s a patriotic person. She’s an army officer,” Carlson said. “She served in the U.S. military for 20 years … By the way, if she was a foreign agent, how exactly is she carrying a gun in the U.S. military? It’s absurd. You will know who’s on which side by the reaction to Tulsi Gabbard.” (Read more from “Tucker Carlson Says Any GOP Senator Who Votes ‘Against Tulsi Gabbard’s Confirmation’ Is ‘Enemy Of The United States'” HERE)

Dear Media, Who Was Driving the Car in the German Christmas Market Attack?

/1 Comment/in , /by

It’s sad, but this event was almost predictable. Europe is awash with radical Muslims who wish death upon infidels, and Germany allowed hordes of these people into their country. At a local Christmas market in Magdeburg, one man, a reported Saudi Arabian, plowed through a crowd, killing at least several people and wounding as many as 60-80 others. We don’t have official numbers yet[.] [WARNING: Some graphic images]:

It’s a terror attack, and the suspect isn’t some “driver.” That’s the shameful part that’s being omitted. The headlines read as if this vehicle got a life of its own, like something out of Stephen King’s Christine. It was a Muslim man who decided he wanted to commit an act of radical Islamic terrorism. It’s not just this incident.

‘They Want to Groom Your Children’: University of Minnesota Fronted Cash to Get 5-Year-Olds to Play With Sex-Change Dolls

/1 Comment/in , , /by

The University of Minnesota is facing criticism over attempts to pay to have little kids play with sex-change dolls.

The National Center for Gender Spectrum Health is a radical initiative of the taxpayer-funded University of Minnesota’s Institute for Sexual and Gender Health. The stated goal of the center, which is run by World Professional Association for Transgender Health members Katherine Spencer and Dianne Berg, is to “promote the well-being of all people across the gender spectrum (including those who are cisgender, transgender, and gender diverse).”

The NCGSH — which boasts of having secured over $87,000 in grant funding — put out a call in February for “transgender and gender diverse children between the ages of 5 and 10 years old and their parents,” asking them to participate in a “hands-on activity to help talk about gender and bodies!”

The flyer noted further that “children and parents will meet a few times in groups with others to play with and give us ideas about the activities” and promised compensation between $20 and $60 per group.

The corresponding UM project page indicated that “MyGender Dolls” are “therapeutic tools intended for licensed therapists to use with patients and their parents or caregivers to help children who find it difficult to express themselves.” (Read more from “‘They Want to Groom Your Children’: University of Minnesota Fronted Cash to Get 5-Year-Olds to Play With Sex-Change Dolls” HERE)

Court Records Blow Holes In The New York Times’ Latest Anti-Hegseth Smear

/2 Comments/in , /by

The New York Times recently dropped its latest “bombshell scandal” involving President-elect Donald Trump’s defense secretary nominee Pete Hegseth — and it’s about as vapid and toothless as one would expect.

“They’re desperately searching for anything to malign Pete,” Hegseth’s lawyer Tim Parlatore told The Federalist.

Published on Monday by Times lackies Dave Philipps and Sharon LaFraniere, the hit piece takes aim at Hegseth’s security guard John Jacob Hasenbein, a former Army Special Forces master sergeant. Specifically, the left-wing propagandists detailed a prior Army training incident involving Hasenbein that they ominously characterize as “a dark episode in his past.”

The matter came about during a March 2019 training simulation the Army conducted with a private contractor before Hasenbein’s unit was set to deploy overseas. The master sergeant and his team were tasked with carrying out “a hostage rescue from a terrorist cell,” and the contractor hired a civilian role player to portray “an ISIS fighter with information about a hostage whom Mr. Hasenbein’s team was supposed to free,” according to the Times.

Philipps and LaFraniere cited claims from witnesses that Hasenbein “beat” the role player — including the role player himself, who told the Times the soldiers “were supposed to ask [him] where the hostage is at … But they didn’t give [him] a chance. They just started hurting [him] bad.” (Read more from “Court Records Blow Holes In The New York Times’ Latest Anti-Hegseth Smear” HERE)

Wisconsin School Shooter Natalie Rupnow Had Only Attended Christian School for Less Than Four Months Before Unleashing Deadly 8-Minute-Long Attack

/2 Comments/in , /by

The 15-year-old Wisconsin school shooter who killed two people and wounded six had attended the Christian academy for less than four months before unleashing an attack that lasted just eight minutes, according to school officials.

Natalie “Samantha” Rupnow — who gunned down student Rubi Patricia Vergara, 14, and teacher Erin West, 42, at Abundant Life Christian School in Madison Monday — was in her first semester and seemed to be settling in, though she struggled with attendance, educators said.

Rupnow’s rampage lasted just eight minutes — shorter than students’ regular snack break, said Barbara Wiers, the school’s director for elementary and communications.

Madison city officials have said a second-grade teacher called 911 to report the the mass shooting at 10:57 a.m. — and that the first police officer arrived at the school four minutes later.

“I pray for [her] family because right now they’ve lost a daughter and they are wounded,” Wiers added. “And they’re dealing with the fact that their daughter did this terrible thing and hurt these other people. It has to be one of the loneliest, bitterest places to be.” (Read more from “Wisconsin School Shooter Natalie Rupnow Had Only Attended Christian School for Less Than Four Months Before Unleashing Deadly 8-Minute-Long Attack” HERE)

Even More Drones in the Sky: Amazon Launches Aerial Delivery Service

/2 Comments/in , /by

Amazon has launched its long-awaited drone delivery service in Arizona, taking a significant step towards fulfilling founder Jeff Bezos’ decade-old vision of autonomous drones delivering packages to customers’ doorsteps in under 30 minutes. The service launches just as millions of Americans have their eyes turned to the skies in search of mystery drones buzzing major cities.

The New York Times reports that Amazon has officially launched its Prime Air drone delivery service in Goodyear, Arizona, a suburb of Phoenix. The service, which has been in development for over a decade, allows customers to receive packages weighing five pounds or less via autonomous drones within an hour of placing their order.

The launch comes after years of regulatory hurdles, technological challenges, and safety concerns that have delayed Amazon’s ambitious plans for drone delivery. However, with the FAA’s approval and significant improvements to its drone technology, the company is now confident that it can provide a safe, efficient, and convenient delivery option to its customers.

Amazon’s new delivery drones, known as the MK-30, are a far cry from the prototypes unveiled by Jeff Bezos on 60 Minutes in 2013. Weighing 80 pounds and roughly the size of a Labrador retriever, these custom-designed drones can fly at speeds of up to 73 miles per hour and carry packages in a special compartment. Equipped with cameras and sensors, the drones can identify a clear spot for dropping packages without the need for customers to place QR codes in their yards, as was the case with earlier trials.

White House Aides Finally Reveal Who Really Ran the Country as Biden Slid Into Mental Incompetence; Damning Report Reveals How He Was Struggling From Beginning

/0 Comments/in , , /by

With President Joe Biden’s time in office winding down, dozens of those close to his operations over the years told the Wall Street Journal how aides insulated the 82-year-old and handled his responsibilities as concerns of his fitness increased.

President-elect Donald Trump’s domination of the news cycle since winning the 2024 election has allowed Biden to fade from the national politics scene. But since the 82-year-old dropped out of the presidential race, questions about his physical state, how long the president had been declining and how it was being handled, have remained unanswered. The WSJ interviewed nearly 50 people who have been close to Biden throughout his administration and they detail how staff handled cabinet officials, presidential responsibilities and campaign events.

Biden, who was often prone to gaffes and having an unsteady gait, was typically trailed by aides, Annie Tomasini and Ashley Williams, while participating in events, according to the WSJ. Those aides tried to stay within ear shot or eye distance of the president over the years, often giving him “basic instructions” like when to leave and exit the stage in an event, the outlet reported.

Aides also adjusted the president’s schedule to start his meetings later in the day as the 82-year-old was typically not his sharpest in the morning, some sources told the WSJ. Sometimes, the meetings were reportedly scrapped all together if Biden was having an “off day.” The White House denied this account to the outlet.

“He has good days and bad days, and today was a bad day so we’re going to address this tomorrow,” a former aide recalled one official saying to them, according to the WSJ. (Read more from “White House Aides Finally Reveal Who Really Ran the Country as Biden Slid Into Mental Incompetence” HERE)

Damning Report on Biden Reveals How He Was Struggling From Beginning

By Yahoo News. . .President Biden, now 82, was 78 years old when he took office, and the Journal reports that administration officials began to notice signs of his age “in just the first few months of his term,” as he would grow “tired if meetings went long and would make mistakes.”

Those who met with the president were reportedly told that “exchanges should be short and focused.” Meetings were strategically scheduled and, sometimes, if Biden “was having an off day,” they were simply canceled. A former aide recalled a national security official saying, regarding one rescheduled meeting, “He has good days and bad days, and today was a bad day so we’re going to address this tomorrow.” . . .

The Journal reported that lawmakers, Cabinet members, and the public all seemed to have less face time with the president than in previous administrations and that senior advisers were “often put into roles that some administration officials and lawmakers thought Biden should occupy.” Namely, administration officials like Jake Sullivan, Steve Ricchetti, and Lael Brainard frequently functioned as intermediaries for the president.

House Armed Services Committee Chair Adam Smith reportedly sought to reach Biden ahead of his withdrawal from Afghanistan “but couldn’t get on the phone with him.” Smith noted that he was more frequently in touch with Barack Obama when he was president, though he wasn’t then the House Armed Services chair. Representative Jim Hines, ranking member on the House Intelligence Committee, similarly told the Journal, “I really had no personal contact with this president. I had more personal contact with Obama, which is sort of strange because I was a lot more junior.”

As for Biden and his Cabinet members, the Journal reports that interactions “were relatively infrequent and often tightly scripted.” One reportedly gave up on trying to request calls with him altogether “because it was clear that such requests wouldn’t be welcome.” The report reveals too that Biden struggled to “recall lines that his team had previously discussed with him” as he prepared for his interview with special counsel Robert Hur—who was investigating whether Biden mishandled classified material and in February determined that a jury would consider him “a sympathetic, well-meaning elderly man with a poor memory.” (Read more from “Damning Report on Biden Reveals How He Was Struggling From Beginning” HERE)

Russia Announces It Has Developed a Revolutionary Cancer Vaccine, Guarantees Free Access for All

/1 Comment/in , /by

By MSN. The announcement was made by Dr. Andrey Kaprin, General Director of the Radiology Medical Research Center under Russia’s Ministry of Health, and was reported by the TASS news agency. This innovation has sparked global interest and raised significant hope within the medical and scientific communities.

According to Professor Alexander Gintsburg, Director of the Gamaleya National Research Center for Epidemiology and Microbiology, the vaccine employs an innovative approach targeting tumors directly. Preclinical trials have shown that the vaccine effectively suppresses tumor growth and inhibits the formation of metastases, addressing one of the most challenging aspects of cancer treatment.

The vaccine leverages mRNA sequences to activate the patient’s immune system. Specifically, it identifies antigens unique to cancer cells and trains the immune system to recognize and destroy them. This cutting-edge method has been made possible through advanced tools like artificial neural networks, developed in collaboration with the Ivannikov Institute in Russia.

Using these algorithms, researchers can tailor the vaccine to individual patients by calculating the precise mRNA modifications needed, drastically reducing production time. “Now it takes quite long to build [personalized vaccines]… But thanks to AI, these procedures can be reduced to about half an hour to an hour,” said Alexander Gintsburg.

Russia Claims It Developed First Cancer Vaccine in Big Breakthrough, Says ‘Will Distribute for Free’

By India TV. The deadly disease, cancer is almost incurable to date and people are terrified of it. But will Russia’s grand claim put an end to cancer? Russia has claimed that it has invented a cancer vaccine that will prevent all types of cancer tumours. According to Russia’s announcement, it has been proved in pre-clinical trials that this vaccine is successful in suppressing cancer tumours. This vaccine makes the body’s immune system so strong that as soon as any cell starts moving towards becoming a cancer cell, the body’s immunity destroys it.

Some time ago, Russian President Vladimir Putin said in a statement on television that we are close to the creation of cancer vaccines and new-generation immunomodulatory drugs. Now the question arises that there is a race to make a cancer vaccine in American and European countries and every day there is some development in it. The third trial of the cancer vaccine of Moderna and Merck company has also been done, but it will take time till 2030 for this vaccine to come. In such a situation, everyone is surprised by this announcement of Russia. Now it is important to know what the doctors of India have to say on this.

When we spoke to Dr Mohammed Taher Mithi, Consultant Surgical Oncologist, Saifee Hospital, Mumbai, he said “The news release by the Russian media mentions the trials as pre-clinical, which means it hasn’t been tested on the population at large. But it is exciting nonetheless and further data and testing would indicate its overall effect on treatment.”

He added, “It works eventually by activating our immune system to eliminate the cancer cells as it would against any foreign antigen. Again it is a vaccine but it is not used to prevent cancers, but rather to treat patients already suffering from cancer.” . . .

According to the News18 report, Dr Shyam Agarwal, Chairman of the Cancer Department at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, said that if Russia’s claim is linked to reality, then it can prove to be a milestone in the history of cancer, but we still have to see many things about this Russian vaccine. He said that Russia has claimed that it has prepared a vaccine for many types of cancer based on messenger RNA. M-RNA are tumour cells that have abnormal proteins on their surface. This is called tumour antigen or tumour-associated antigen -TAA. Every type of cancer cell has a different TAA. Also, understand that the antigen that is formed is made from m-RNA. It is a type of protein. Russian scientists say that they have discovered many antigens for different types of cancer.

Russia To Launch Free Cancer Vaccine in 2025

By Newsweek. . .Newsweek has emailed the Russian Ministry of Health, the Russian National Medical Research Radiological Center and the Gamaleya National Research Center to confirm the announcement and clarify how the vaccine works.

It is currently not clear which cancers the vaccine is supposed to treat, how effective it is or even what the vaccine is called.

It is scientifically feasible that some sort of vaccine may have been developed to target cancer. Other countries are currently working to develop something similar.

For example, in 2023 the U.K. government signed a contract with a German biotechnology company to develop personalized cancer treatments, and pharmaceutical companies Moderna and Merck & Co are currently working on a skin cancer vaccine.

There are even vaccines already on the market that aim to prevent cancer, such as vaccines against human papillomaviruses (HPV), which help prevent cervical cancer. (Read more from “Russia To Launch Free Cancer Vaccine in 2025” HERE)
