House Passes Bill To Prevent Shutdown and Suspend Debt Limit

/0 Comments/in , /by

The House on Tuesday passed legislation that would prevent a government shutdown and suspend the debt limit ahead of looming deadlines with only days to spare, although the measure is set to run into a GOP wall in the Senate.

The bill passed on a party-line vote of 220-211.

It now heads to the Senate, where at least 10 Republicans would need to join with all Democrats for passage.

Nearly every Republican senator has said that they will oppose a debt limit suspension, arguing that Democrats should instead act on their own through the budget reconciliation process that can circumvent a filibuster and is being used for the $3.5 trillion social spending package.

Democrats are nonetheless attaching the debt limit suspension through Dec. 16, 2022, to a must-pass bill to avoid a government shutdown on Oct. 1 in an attempt to pressure Republicans to drop their threats. (Read more from “House Passes Bill To Prevent Shutdown and Suspend Debt Limit” HERE)

Biden Approval Rating Drops to Record Low in Gallup Polling

/1 Comment/in , /by

President Biden’s approval rating after eight months in office has dipped to 43 percent, according to a new Gallup poll released Wednesday, the lowest level of support the firm has recorded for the first-term president.

Gallup’s poll, conducted from Sept. 1 to 17, also marked the first time a majority disapproved of Biden’s job performance, with 53 percent of U.S. adults indicating they had a negative view of his presidency.

Biden’s approval rating has remained high among Democrats, though it reached its lowest this month at 90 percent, with only 6 percent of Republicans this month giving Biden high marks.

Among independent voters, Gallup recorded the lowest approval rating for Biden to date, at 37 percent, a significant drop from his high of 61 percent measured during his first month in office.

The latest Gallup poll was conducted following the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, with Biden’s efforts to completely remove the U.S. military presence from the country overshadowed by the Taliban’s rapid consolidation of power 20 years after the U.S. first toppled the militant group.

Researchers Predict Steady Decline in COVID Cases Through March — Without Any ‘Significant Winter Surge’

/0 Comments/in , /by

A group of researchers that advises the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention predicted this week that the worst of the COVID-19 pandemic could be over — and said that a steady decline in confirmed coronavirus cases through March could very well be on the horizon.

The pandemic, according to a consortium of researchers advising the CDC, appears to have either peaked or be close to peaking, as they predict cases will fall this autumn and into the winter months.

The Delta variant surge also appears to be peaking nationally, according to the group’s predictions, and the country is reportedly not likely to see a “significant winter surge.”

A Wednesday report from NPR noted, “For its latest update, which it will release Wednesday, the COVID-19 Scenario Modeling Hub combined nine different mathematical models from different research groups to get an outlook for the pandemic for the next six months.”

Justin Lessler of the University of North Carolina — who helps to run the hub — told the news organization, “Any of us who have been following this closely, given what happened with Delta, are going to be really cautious about too much optimism. But I do think that the trajectory is towards improvement for most of the country.” (Read more from “Researchers Predict Steady Decline in COVID Cases Through March — Without Any ‘Significant Winter Surge'” HERE)

Biden Admin Promised To Send Back Haitian Migrants, but They’re Being Released Into US on ‘Very, Very Large Scale’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Another day, another lie from the Biden administration.

After promising large-scale repatriation of Haitian migrants who poured into the United States in Del Rio, Texas, over the last several weeks, President Joe Biden’s administration is actually releasing the migrants into the U.S. on a “very, very large scale.”

The Associated Press reported last week that Biden planned the “widescale expulsion” of the Haitian migrants encamped under the Del Rio International Bridge.

“Details are yet to be finalized but will likely involve five to eight flights a day, according to the official with direct knowledge of the plans who was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity. San Antonio, the nearest major city, may be among the departure cities,” the AP reported.

Instead of rapid, widescale repatriation as promised, the Biden administration is releasing the Haitian migrants into the U.S. Officials reportedly told the AP that migrants are being released on a “very, very large scale.” (Read more from “Biden Admin Promised To Send Back Haitian Migrants, but They’re Being Released Into Us on ‘Very, Very Large Scale'” HERE)

Trump Files Lawsuit Against His Niece, New York Times

/1 Comment/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump filed a $100 million lawsuit against The New York Times and his niece Mary Trump on Tuesday, alleging his confidential tax documents were improperly shared.

The lawsuit, which was filed in the New York Supreme Court, alleged that New York Times reporters Susanne Craig, David Barstow and Russell Buettner pressured Mary Trump to share the former president’s tax documents for an article they were working on in 2018, the Associated Press reported.

“The brazenness of the defendants’ actions cannot be understated,” the lawsuit said. “A group of journalists with The New York Times, in the middle of an extensive crusade to obtain Donald J. Trump’s confidential tax records, relentlessly sought out his niece, Mary L. Trump, and convinced her to smuggle the records out of her attorney’s office and turn them over to The Times.”

Trump’s lawsuit stated that the reporters understood their actions were illegal since they used burner phones to communicate about the story and offered Mary Trump anonymity as a source.

Mary Trump participated in the allegedly illegal sharing of documents because she was “motivated by a personal vendetta,” the lawsuit said. She admitted to being the NYT’s anonymous source in a 2020 book highlighting her relationship with her uncle. (Read more from “Trump Files Lawsuit Against His Niece, New York Times” HERE)

Whistleblower: 2019 Wuhan Military Games Were China’s First Intentional COVID Super-Spreader Event

/1 Comment/in , , /by

On July 21, 2021, Lawrence Sellin, Ph.D. broke the news on The Gateway Pundit from a China source that the release of COVID-19 at the 2019 Military World Games in Wuhan was a test of the longer-term effects of that type of bioweapon because foreign visitors to the Games would carry it back to their own countries and the consequences could be observed. . .

The source explained that the subsequent outbreak in Wuhan was entirely unexpected. That is, there was no laboratory leak, but the unintended spread among the Chinese population of Wuhan of a virus for which they had underestimated its transmissibility.

Beijing learned about the silent spreading of COVID-19 by the beginning of December, but kept it quiet and allowed international flights from Wuhan to continue. . .

COVID-19 was meant to hit United States, its allies and the whole western world because of China’s economic problems and the trade war being conducted by President Trump. The effects of a pandemic might cause Trump to lose the election.

On Wednesday The Daily Mail reported on a whistleblower and defector Wei Jingsheng alleging the COVID virus was first spread at the China Military Games in 2019, two months before the global outbreak.

Man and His “Husband” Castrate Another Man, Planned To Cannibalize Testicles, Sentenced to Prison

/0 Comments/in , /by

The man charged with illegally removing a volunteer’s balls and then allegedly announcing his plan to eat them has been sentenced to slightly over 12 years behind bars.

Bob Lee Allen, 54, and his husband Thomas Evans Gates III, 42, were charged last year for castrating the victim, a then-willing 28-year-old who had flown from Virginia to get the procedure after connecting with Allen on the now-defunct castration forum Eunuch Maker, Vice reported.

The victim told investigators that Allen boasted he had 15 years of experience performing gender reassignment surgeries, had six clients lined up for the procedure and kept body parts in his freezer.

The couple then drove the victim to their secluded cabin in the southeast Oklahoma woods where Allen performed the two-hour surgery using only local anesthetic. Following the procedure, Allen reportedly “said that he was going to consume the parts and laughed and said that he was a cannibal” the Oklahoman reported. Allen has denied this claim.

A day following the castration, Allen took the victim to the hospital for bleeding, threatening to dump him in the woods should he pass out on the way. Hospital personnel alerted police, who found “what appeared to be testicles” when they subsequently searched the cabin. The couple was arrested shortly thereafter when they tried to visit the victim at the hospital.

Study: Monoclonal Antibodies Massively Reduced Risk of Hospitalization Among High-Risk COVID-Positive Individuals

/0 Comments/in , /by

Treatment with two monoclonal antibodies lowers the odds of hospitalization for high-risk COVID-19 patients with mild to moderate illness, according to a new study.

“Our conclusion overall at this point is that monoclonal antibodies are an important option in treatment to reduce the impact of COVID-19 in high-risk patients,” said senior author Dr. Raymund Razonable, an infectious diseases specialist at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn.

The combination of casirivimab and imdevimab has emergency use authorization from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

The study included 696 COVID-19 patients treated with the combo at the Mayo Clinic between December 2020 and early April 2021, and an equal number of patients who didn’t receive it. . .

Overall, patients who received the combo therapy had a 60% to 70% lower risk of hospitalization than untreated patients, the findings showed. (Read more from “Study: Monoclonal Antibodies Massively Reduced Risk of Hospitalization Among High-Risk COVID-Positive Individuals” HERE)

BOMBSHELL: Man Arrested at Media-Hyped ‘Justice for J6’ Rally Was Actually Federal Agent; Trump Jr. Mocks ‘Undercover Feds’ at Rally

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By The Blaze. The media-hyped “Justice for J6” rally was promised to be the sequel to the Jan. 6 riot at Capitol Hill. With a massive police presence, many of whom were dressed in full riot gear, and the Capitol barricaded, the rally turned out to be a complete dud.

There was, however, one arrest of a man who was found to be in possession of a firearm. But it turned out that man was a federal agent.

The man who was arrested is a 27-year-old U.S. Customs and Border Protection agent from New Jersey. He was taken into custody after people at the rally reported seeing him with a firearm.

The United States Capitol Police initially said the man was being charged with violating 40 U.S. Code § 5104 for carrying a firearm on federal property where it is illegal to possess a firearm.

However, the U.S. attorney in Washington, D.C., said prosecutors were “not moving forward with charges,” the Associated Press reported. The office did not provide additional details. (Read more from “BOMBSHELL: Man Arrested at Media-Hyped ‘Justice for J6’ Rally Was Actually Federal Agent” HERE)

China Joe Goes Full China Joe for U.N. Speech

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden will use his speech to the United Nations on Tuesday to focus on the importance of working together with China, the White House said.

“There are also areas where we can work together with China and should work together with China, and that includes on climate, it includes on insuring that we do end this pandemic as rapidly as possible,” a senior administration official said during a call previewing Biden’s address to reporters.

The White House was asked about comments from Secretary-General Antonio Guterres urging China and the United States to repair their “completely dysfunctional” relationship to avoid another Cold War.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Monday that Biden would make it “absolutely clear” in his speech Tuesday that he was not looking for a new Cold War with China or any country in the world.

Speaking to reporters, the senior administration official said Biden did not believe in a Cold War approach. (Read more from “China Joe Goes Full China Joe for U.N. Speech” HERE)
