New York Supreme Court Hands Down Major Victory on Vaccine Mandates

/0 Comments/in , /by

The New York Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that state government workers, including first responders, fired for refusing to take the COVID-19 vaccine should not only be reinstated to their jobs, but given backpay.

“It is clear that the Health Commissioner has the authority to issue public health mandates. No one is refuting that authority. However, the Health Commissioner cannot create a new condition of employment for City employees. The Health Commissioner cannot prohibit an employee from returning to work. The Health Commissioner cannot terminate employees. The Mayor cannot exempt certain employees from these orders. Executive Order No. 62 renders all of these vaccine mandates arbitrary and capricious,” the ruling states. “Being vaccinated does not prevent an individual from contracting or transmitting Covid-19. As of the day of this Decision, CDC guidelines regarding quarantine and isolation are the same for vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals.”

“We have learned through the course of this pandemic that the vaccine against Covid-19 is not absolute. Breakthrough cases occur, even for those who have been vaccinated and boosted. President Joseph Biden has said the pandemic is over. The State of New York ended the Covid-19 state of emergency over a month ago,” the ruling continues. “As this Court stated in its decision in the Rivicci matter, this is not a commentary on the efficacy of vaccination, but about how we were treating our first responders, the ones who worked day-to-day through the height of the pandemic,” the ruling continues. “They worked without protective gear. They were infected with Covid-19, creating natural immunity. They continued working full duty while their exemption requests were pending. They were terminated and are willing to come back to work for the City that cast them aside.” (Read more from “New York Supreme Court Hands Down Major Victory on Vaccine Mandates” HERE)

Joe Biden Calls for ‘One COVID Shot Each Year’ as He Gets Fifth Vaccine Shot

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden urged Americans to get their coronavirus vaccine boosters, recommending one additional booster shot per year.

“If you’re fully vaccinated, get one more COVID shot. Once a year. That’s it,” Biden said during a speech on his imitation White House video set.

The president got his fifth coronavirus shot live on camera, even though he contracted and recovered from the virus in July.

But he urged all Americans to keep getting their boosters.

“Your old vaccine or your previous COVID infection will not give you maximum protection,” he said. (Read more from “Joe Biden Calls for ‘One COVID Shot Each Year’ as He Gets Fifth Vaccine Shot” HERE)

Democrats: The Only Way to Save Democracy Is One-Party Rule

/0 Comments/in , /by

At this point, it would save everyone time if Democrats could simply point to a policy agenda item that isn’t going to save democracy — if such a thing exists.

If Republicans vote, they are killing democracy. If they don’t vote, they are killing democracy. The only way to “save democracy,” writes The Washington Post’s Max Boot, is to empower one-party rule — a position that probably sounds counterintuitive to anyone with a middle-school education. “Now you need to vote to literally save democracy again,” contends President Joe Biden, or we will lose our “fundamental rights and freedoms like the right to choose, the right to privacy, the right to vote — our very democracy.”

Chilling stuff. But it doesn’t end there. You will remember that by failing to “reform” the filibuster, which would entail authorizing the thinnest of fleeting majorities to shove through massive generational “reforms” without any national consensus or debate, we are also killing democracy. This has been the position not only of left-wing pundits and the New York Times editorial board, but also senators tasked with defending their institution. I wonder if they will support this democracy-saving fix next session, as well?

Then again, if we don’t nationalize the economy to avert a climate crisis, we are also killing democracy. “We’ve got to save democracy in order to save our species,” Jamie Raskin explains. And if we don’t empty the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to temporarily keep gas prices low to help Democrats win in 2022, we are killing democracy. “We find ourselves in a situation, where keeping gas prices low is key to preserving and strengthening the future of our democracy,” MSNBC’s Chris Hayes says.

We must allow the president to unilaterally create trillion-dollar spending bills and break existing private sector contracts by fiat. For democracy. We must pack the court to “save democracy.” We must create a Ministry of Truth to help with “strengthening democratic institutions.” We must vote for a Pennsylvania candidate who can’t cobble two consecutive coherent sentences together because the “fate of our democracy” is at stake, says our former president.

State Bill Would Allow Residents to Manufacture Unlimited Embryos and Destroy Them All

/0 Comments/in , /by

Assisted reproductive technology is marred with ethical and moral controversy, but under a new bill that could be passed by the Illinois House of Representatives as soon as next month, procedures such as the serial manufacturing and destruction of embryos could become “fundamental rights” for residents of the state.

Margaret Croke, the freshman state representative for Illinois’s 12th district, first introduced HB 5779 in August with the intent of debating it in the legislative veto session scheduled for November. Croke wrote in her September newsletter about using the bill to enshrine abortion and assisted reproductive technology (ART), such as serial embryo creation and destruction, as “fundamental rights” for all Illinoisans. . .

The Democrat’s legislation, specifically, seeks to amend the state’s “Reproductive Health Act,” a law granting residents on-demand abortions, to add ART to the list of “fundamental rights” all adults in the state can demand.

That technology, according to the bill text, includes in vitro fertilization, gamete intrafallopian transfer, zygote intrafallopian transfer, embryo biopsy, preimplantation genetic diagnosis (which often yields incorrect results and leads to premature disposal of viable embryos), embryo freezing (which reduces the chance of an embryo surviving), problematic procedures such as supplying egg and sperm (which preys on young adults strapped for cash), and supplying embryos.

Tucker Carlson Reveals Trump Call With Arizona Senate Candidate

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump encouraged Arizona Republican Senate candidate Blake Masters to talk about election fraud in a phone call revealed as part of a new documentary from Fox News host Tucker Carlson.

The conversation, shown in a Tucker Carlson Original streaming on Fox Nation, took place after Masters said in a debate this month against Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly that there was no evidence of the vote count being rigged in favor of President Joe Biden in 2020.

Trump urged Masters to take cues from Kari Lake, a Republican candidate running for governor in Arizona, who has made election integrity a top priority in her campaign.

INSANITY: 101st Deployed for First Time in 80 Years, Miles from Ukraine; Russia Warns of “Uncontrolled” Escalation

‘Ready to Defend Every Inch of NATO Soil:’ U.S. Military Sends Elite Troops to Eastern Europe Amid Russia/Ukraine War: Report

By Daily Wire. U.S. military forces have deployed one of the nation’s most elite groups of airborne division soldiers to Europe for the first time since World War II, vowing to fight alongside Ukrainian troops in the war against Russia, according to a report.

CBS News reported Friday that the U.S. Army’s 101st Airborne Division, a group trained to deploy anywhere in the world and fight within hours, deployed approximately 4,700 soldiers from Fort Campbell, Kentucky, to Romania, where soldiers stand ready to reinforce NATO’s eastern flank on a moment’s notice.

“We’re ready to defend every inch of NATO soil,” the division’s Deputy Commander, Brigadier General John Lubas, told the outlet, adding their presence is necessary because of the group’s unique light infantry force capabilities.

“We bring that mobility to our aircraft and our air assaults,” Lubas said.

Division soldiers, nicknamed the “Screamin’ Eagles,” are now the closest American forces to the ongoing fighting in Ukraine since Russian President Vladimir Putin launched military operations there earlier this year. Since then, Russian troops have advanced on the Crimean Peninsula and scaled the Black Sea coast into the Kherson region, including Mykolaiv and Odesa port cities.

Russia Hits Homes in Ukraine, Warns of “Uncontrolled Escalation”

By NDTV. Under pressure in the south of Ukraine, Russia fired missiles and drones into Ukrainian-held Mykolaiv on Sunday, destroying an apartment block in the ship-building city near the front and said the war was trending towards “uncontrolled escalation”.

Mykolaiv lies roughly 35 km (22 miles) northwest of the front line to occupied Kherson, the southern region where Russia has ordered 60,000 people to flee a Ukrainian counter offensive “to save your lives”.

Russian Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu, who some Russian nationalists have blamed for Moscow’s setbacks since the Feb. 24 invasion, discussed the “rapidly deteriorating situation” in calls with French, British and Turkish counterparts, the ministry said.

He also spoke by phone with U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin for the second time in three days. The Pentagon’s readout of the call said Austin told Shoigu he “rejected any pretext for Russian escalation.”

Without providing evidence, Shoigu said Ukraine could escalate by using a “dirty bomb” – conventional explosives laced with radioactive material. Ukraine does not possess nuclear weapons, while Russia has said it could protect Russian territory with its nuclear arsenal.

Joke About Joe Biden Leads to Extremely Awkward Moment at Gavin Newsom-Brian Dahle Debate

By SF Gate. California gubernatorial candidates Gavin Newsom and Brian Dahle squared off in their one-and-only debate of the election cycle Sunday, and for the most part, there was nothing unexpected.

Dahle made several jokes about Newsom’s presidential aspirations, Newsom put Dahle on blast for his opposition to expanding abortion rights via Proposition 1, and Dahle railed against the state’s gas tax.

One out-of-the-ordinary moment came when Dahle was asked whether Joe Biden legitimately won the 2020 presidential election.

“He did win the election, but the big question is does he know that. That’s what I wonder sometimes,” Dahle said.

Groundbreaking Geomagnetic Study Confirms Numerous Biblical Accounts (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A joint study by TAU and the Hebrew University, involving 20 researchers from different countries and disciplines, has accurately dated 21 destruction layers at 17 archaeological sites in Israel by reconstructing the direction and/or intensity of the earth’s magnetic field recorded in burnt remnants. The new data verify the Biblical accounts of the Egyptian, Aramean, Assyrian, and Babylonian military campaigns against the Kingdoms of Israel and Judah.

Findings indicate, for example, that the army of Hazael, King of Aram-Damascus, was responsible for the destruction of several cities—Tel Rehov, Tel Zayit, and Horvat Tevet, in addition to Gath of the Philistines, whose destruction is noted in the Hebrew Bible. At the same time, the study refutes the prevailing theory that Hazael was the conqueror who destroyed Tel Beth-Shean.

Other geomagnetic findings reveal that the cities in the Negev were destroyed by the Edomites, who took advantage of the destruction of Jerusalem and the Kingdom of Judah by the Babylonians. . .

Thus, in a 2020 study, researchers reconstructed the magnetic field as it was on the 9th of the month of Av, 586 BCE, the Hebrew date of the destruction of the First Temple and the City of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar and his Babylonian army.

Now, using archaeological findings unearthed over several decades at 17 sites throughout Israel, alongside historical information from ancient inscriptions and Biblical accounts, the researchers were able to reconstruct the magnetic fields recorded in 21 destruction layers. They used the data to develop a reliable new scientific tool for archaeological dating. (Read more from “Groundbreaking Geomagnetic Study Confirms Numerous Biblical Accounts” HERE)

Judge Orders Fauci, Psaki Deposed in Social Media Censorship Lawsuit

/0 Comments/in , /by

A federal judge has ordered Dr. Anthony Fauci and former White House press secretary Jen Psaki to be deposed for a lawsuit that claims top officials in the Biden administration colluded with social media companies to censor debate about the COVID pandemic and The Post’s expose on the Hunter Biden laptop.

Fauci, Psaki and other other administration officials — including Surgeon General Vivek Murthy — must testify about their communications with the tech companies as part of the lawsuit brought in May by Republican attorneys general Eric Schmitt of Missouri and Jeff Landry of Louisiana.

The attorneys general sought the testimony of Fauci, the chief medical adviser to President Biden, because of his high profile position and his public comments rejecting the theory that the virus leaked from a lab in Wuhan, China, as well as his claims about the efficacy of mask wearing.

“Plaintiffs urge that his comments on these important issues are relevant to the matter at hand and are further reasons why Dr. Fauci should be deposed,” US District Court Judge Terry Doughty wrote in his 28-page order issued on Friday.
