Why Now? *Everyone* Knew CNN President Had Relationship With Subordinate

Former CNN president Jeff Zucker’s romantic relationship with the network’s chief marketing officer, Allison Gollust, was apparently well-known to some in the media, according to a report.

New York magazine reports:

Zucker and Gollust’s relationship was one of the biggest open secrets in media. CNN staffers awkwardly navigated the pairing, since every time they dealt with her, they were keenly aware that she was involved with the boss. They were rolling their eyes at Gollust’s own statement that said “recently, our relationship changed during Covid.” It had been going on for much longer: Page Six would wink at it from time to time, and the two have known each other since they worked together at NBC decades ago.

Zucker on Wednesday morning announced he was stepping down from CNN after failing to disclose a relationship with a Gollust. (Read more from “Why Now? *Everyone* Knew CNN President Had Relationship With Subordinate” HERE)

Congressman: Preparation for Biden Impeachment Starts Now

Citing the crisis created by Joe Biden at America’s southern border – by his decision to abandon the security measures adopted by President Trump such as the wall construction – one member of Congress said the work preparing to impeach the president should begin now.

It is Breitbart that reported Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz., explained evidence must be collected and preserved for what could happen later.

Republicans are expected to move into the majority in the U.S. House following this fall’s elections, and many expect them to be in the majority in the Senate as well.

A simply majority in the House can vote to impeach a president, but it takes a supermajority in the Senate for a conviction.

Biggs, in an interview with Breitbart, said both Biden and Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas should be impeached for their decisions that opened America’s southern border to millions of illegal aliens.

White House: Do More to Censor Rogan Podcast!; More Musicians Boycott Spotify After Joe Rogan Bends the Knee (VIDEO)

By Breitbart. The White House indicated Tuesday that Spotify’s attempts to address what they described as coronavirus “misinformation” on podcaster Joe Rogan’s interviews was not a strong enough response to the freedom of speech controversy.

Spotify announced a decision Sunday to include content advisory warnings on Rogan’s interviews about the coronavirus pandemic with sources dissenting from the government narrative about the virus.

“It’s a positive step but more can be done,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki said during the daily briefing on Tuesday.

Spotify acted to address the situation after musicians Neil Young and Joni Mitchell asked the company to remove their music from their platform as part of a protest of Rogan’s interviews.

But Psaki called on technology and media platforms to do more to censor what she described as “misinformation” about the virus. (Read more from “White House: Do More to Censor Rogan Podcast!” HERE)

More Musicians Boycott Spotify in Support of Neil Young After Joe Rogan Bends the Knee

By Breitbart. The cancel mob is still baying for Joe Rogan’s head just days after the popular podcaster acquiesced to their demands by agreeing to a “content advisory” warning label and more “balance” on his show.

Musicians Graham Nash, Nils Lofgren, and India Arie are the latest stars to boycott Spotify, following in the path of Neil Young who last week demanded his songs be pulled from the streaming service in what has become a media-fueled effort to censor and deplatform Rogan. . .

On Sunday, Rogan responded to the growing controversy, saying in a video message that “many of the things that we thought of as ‘misinformation’ just a short while ago are now accepted as fact.”

He also pledged to add more “balance” to “controversial viewpoints” presented on “The Joe Rogan Experience.” (Read more from “More Musicians Boycott Spotify in Support of Neil Young After Joe Rogan Bends the Knee” HERE)

George W. Bush Maxes Out Political Donations to Trump Impeachment Supporters Liz Cheney and Lisa Murkowski

Former President George W. Bush gave the maximum allowed political contributions to Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney and Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski, two Republicans who supported impeaching former President Donald Trump over the January 6 Capitol riot.

New disclosures filed with the Federal Election Commission said Bush gave Cheney $5,800 on October 28 for both the general and primary elections. On December 31, he also gave Murkowski $2,900 for her primary. The FEC sets limits on political contributions.

Cheney, the daughter of Bush’s own vice president, Dick Cheney, and an outspoken Trump critic, now serves as the lead Republican on the House Select Committee investigating January 6. She’s set to face off against Harriet Hageman, a former RNC official who has been endorsed by Trump, in an August primary. Cheney has outraised Hageman by more than four to one — $2 million for Cheney versus $440,00 for Hageman — FEC disclosures showed. . .

Cheney was one of 10 House Republicans who voted to impeach Trump over inciting an insurrection on January 6, while Murkowski was one of seven Republican senators who voted to convict him.

FEC records indicated that Bush didn’t make any other political contributions in 2021 before October. (Read more from “George W. Bush Maxes Out Political Donations to Trump Impeachment Supporters Liz Cheney and Lisa Murkowski” HERE)

State Moves to Make Ivermectin Available to Consumers

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has posted pages of detailed information online about “Why you should not use ivermectin to treat or prevent COVID-19.” . . .

That’s even though Dr. Theresa Lawrie, a U.K. medical doctor and research analyst who founded the British Ivermectin Recommendation Development initiative (BiRD International) suggested it has significant benefits against contracting, or dying from, COVID-19.

Now, a report confirms officials in one state are trying to make it easier for consumers to obtain, even though the FDA stands by its dire warnings.

The report said lawmakers in New Hampshire are working on legislation that would give consumers access to the treatment through ordinary procedures at a pharmacy.

House Bill 1022 would allow pharmacists to dispense the drug by means of standing orders, the report said. (Read more from “State Moves to Make Ivermectin Available to Consumers” HERE)

Biden’s Apathy Toward His Drug-Plagued Border Crisis Is Killing People

Drug overdoses in the U.S., many fentanyl-related, reached record highs in 2021 and are on track to cause more deaths in 2022 as President Joe Biden ignores his ongoing crisis at the southern border, which is responsible for a large portion of drug trafficking in the nation.

Biden and his team at the White House are intentionally ignoring the growing border crisis even though since the beginning of the 2021 calendar year, border officials arrested more than 2 million illegal aliens, often aided and funded by the United Nations, at the southern U.S. border. Already, Customs and Border Protection data indicates that apprehensions on the U.S.-Mexico border in the 2022 fiscal year will exceed 2 million.

Not only are illegal aliens pouring across the border in what is arguably the nation’s top humanitarian crisis, but so are lethal drugs such as fentanyl, which plays an increasing role in the number of drug-related deaths in the U.S.

In addition to creating national security problems, Biden’s open border policies have ushered in a public health crisis that is responsible for many of the 100,306 drug overdose deaths in the U.S. from April 2020 to April 2021. In South Texas ports of entry alone, CBP seized 588 pounds of fentanyl in fiscal year 2021, a 1,066 percent increase since FY2020.

Southern states, including states that border Mexico, reported a surging number of fentanyl-related hospital visits and deaths. Even states such as Kansas and Maine, which are hundreds to thousands of miles away from the U.S.-Mexico border, are grappling with record-high drug overdoses and fentanyl deaths as a result of smuggled drugs.

Former Trump Press Secretary Hands Over Texts to Jan. 6 Panel

Former White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany has provided text messages to the House Select Committee investigating last year’s deadly Capitol riot, according to a new report.

ABC News, citing a source familiar with the investigation, reported that the Trump-era spokeswoman turned over the texts to the committee after being subpoenaed for records and her testimony in November.

Some of McEnany’s text messages were quoted in a Jan. 20 letter sent to former President Donald Trump’s daughter Ivanka, asking her to cooperate with the probe. ABC reported that those messages came from documents handed in by the former press secretary.

The letter to the former first daughter from committee chairman Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) quoted a Jan. 7, 2021 exchange between McEnany and Fox News host Sean Hannity in which the latter laid out what Thompson called a “five point approach for conversations with President Trump.”

“1 – no more stolen election talk,” Hannity wrote to McEnany, according to the letter. “2- Yes, impeachment and the 25th amendment are real and many people will quit…” (Read more from “Former Trump Press Secretary Hands Over Texts to Jan. 6 Panel” HERE)

AOC Retires From Twitter Over ’Anxiety’

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) announced Monday evening on Instagram she is taking a break from Twitter after feeling “anxious” upon being caught maskless and catching the coronavirus.

Responding to a comment on social media that noted she had been absent from Twitter, Ocasio-Cortez admitted she turned off social media while she recovered from the Chinese virus.

“That’s so funny that you bring that up,” Ocasio-Cortez said. “Yeah when I got covid I turned off all my devices, which means I wasn’t really on social media that much or anything like that.”

Ocasio-Cortez suggested after she recovered from the Chinese virus, she felt “anxious” about political opinions on Jack Dorsey’s platform.

“And I found that when I went to open Twitter up again, it just like wasn’t really making me…,” she said before the Instagram story frame ended. (Read more from “AOC Retires From Twitter Over ’Anxiety’” HERE)

A Former Playboy Bunny Says She Was Forced to Cover up the Alleged Abductions and Horrific Rapes of Young Women

A former Playboy Bunny said she was forced to cover up the alleged rapes and abductions of two “baby” Playboy Bunnies. . .

According to Masten, the newly-minted Bunnies (who she estimated to be around 20 and 21 years old at the time and did not name in the docuseries) were out dancing one night when they met “Soul Train” host Don Cornelius. (Per Masten, Cornelius was a “Playboy VIP gold member” and a regular at the LA club.) He then invited the young women to sit in his booth and have drinks with him and later invited them go back to his house for a party, she recalled. . .

“They didn’t have any fear at the time,” Masten recalled of the Bunnies’ reaction to Cornelius’ invitation. “Then these two young girls got in his Rolls-Royce and went up to his house. And we didn’t hear from them for three days.”

“These two young Bunnies were at Don Cornelius’ house and they were separated. One was locked in one room, and the other was in another room,” Masten continued, adding that the two sisters were “tied up and bound,” “sodomized” with “wooden objects,” and could hear one another being “brutalized” over the course of several days. . .

She also said that the “Playboy rules” prevented herself and other Playboy employees, with knowledge of the alleged incident, from calling the police after one of the abducted women was finally able to escape and make contact with another Bunny mother. Masten didn’t specify who at Playboy told her not to contact the authorities, or whether it was an actual formal policy at the company.

COVID-19-Infected HIV Patient Developed 21 Mutations: Study

A South African woman suffering from “poorly controlled” HIV who also had COVID-19 for nine months saw the CCP virus develop at least 21 mutations while in her body, a recent preprint study found.

The woman, 22, was able to overcome the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus which causes COVID-19, within six to nine weeks after she started taking anti-retroviral medication that is used to treat HIV, according to researchers at Stellenbosch and the University of KwaZulu-Natal.

They concluded that “increased vigilance is warranted” among HIV patients who contract COVID-19 to “prevent the emergence” of COVID-19 variants. Notably, the Omicron variant was first discovered in South Africa in November 2021, and U.S. health officials say it’s now the dominant strain across the United States.

“This case, like others before, describes a potential pathway for the emergence of novel variants,” the scientists said in the pre-print study, adding that it is still a hypothesis and much more data is needed. “Our experience reinforces previous reports that effective anti-retroviral treatment is the key to controlling such events.”

South Africa has the world’s largest HIV epidemic. About 8.2 million of out its 60 million population is infected with the virus. (Read more from “COVID-19-Infected HIV Patient Developed 21 Mutations: Study” HERE)
