Vaccine Less Effective Against New COVID Variant

/0 Comments/in , /by

A study conducted in Israel found that the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine is somewhat less effective against the more infectious delta variant, though it was still found to be effective at preventing severe illness.

As The Wall Street Journal reports, the Pfizer vaccine protected 64 percent of immunized people during an outbreak of the delta variant, a sharp drop when compared to the 94 percent of people it had previously been shown to protect. However, the shot was still 94 percent effective at preventing severe illness, a slight decrease from the 97 percent that were kept from experiencing severe illness previously.

The data for the study was collected from June 6 through early July, according to officials from Israel’s Health Ministry. The data and the methodology of the study was not released, according to the Journal.

Some health experts expressed skepticism about the Israel study, saying mRNA vaccines like Pfizer have been shown to offer strong protection against COVID-19 infection.

Hunter Biden’s Texts Reveal His ‘Genius’ Plan for Prostitutes

/0 Comments/in , /by

We’re all aware of Hunter Biden’s proclivity for prostitutes. But, until now, we didn’t know that he had a genius plan for the industry.

According to text messages found on his laptop, Joe Biden’s distinguished son came up with a plan to unionize prostitutes.

“You organize without even organizing in any traditional way,” Biden theorized in a March 2019 text conversation with an employee of Los Angeles’s Chateau Marmont. “If you want to advertise legally you go through the unions [of which] you’re a member. Your dues are the fees that you pay for advertising. Whomever does this first will be running the largest union in the country.”

“Haha, that’s actually pretty genius,” the Chateau Marmont employee replied. . .

“In various other transactions with pimps and prostitutes, Biden’s alleged texts show a highly organized procedure in which he visits a website, agrees to certain parameters, and pays electronically,” explains the Washington Examiner. “Biden’s unionizing idea appears to be geared more toward better working conditions for prostitutes because this was his theme in the tape recording about strippers.” (Read more from “Hunter Biden’s Texts Reveal His ‘Genius’ Plan for Prostitutes” HERE)

Nearly 200 Die over July 4 Weekend Due to Skyrocketing Crime

/0 Comments/in , /by

Gun violence over the Fourth of July weekend resulted in 184 people killed and 464 injured across the United States, according to data from Gun Violence Archive.

The data shows injuries and homicides caused by gun violence during a 72-hour period, from the evening of Friday, July 2 to the evening of Monday, July 5, according to Gun Violence Archive data.

In Chicago, 13 people were killed and 64 people were injured, data from the Gun Violence Archives shows. The most shooting attempts occurred in Chicago – 51 of the 490 incidents.

In Baltimore, three people died and six people were injured, while in New York, seven people died and 40 people were injured due to gun violence. . .

Declining morale among police officers and a dramatic plummet in recruitment have left law enforcement agencies across the country under-staffed and unable to keep up with the rise in violence. Officers leaving the force most often cite anti-police sentiment and political turmoil as the reason for their resignations.

People Injured by Coronavirus Vaccine Turn to GoFundMe for Support

/1 Comment/in , /by

Amidst the new warning issued by the CDC regarding the risk of myocarditis from the Chinese coronavirus vaccine, and in light of other recognized side effects such as neural functional disorder, Human Events News thought it would be interesting to visit the pages of the popular crowd funding site GoFundMe.com to see if there were stories to be found from vaccine reaction sufferers.

According to research compiled by a group in Colorado’s Mesa County, as of June 25 there were 180 GoFundMe accounts seeking assistance for people who have suffered from the aftereffects of the Chinese coronavirus vaccine. Without any representation as to the underlying veracity of the claims, here is a small sampling of some of the stories.

For a person identified only as a nurse by the name of “Kelli,” here is an excerpt from a post on her behalf:

Kelli has been fighting hard with a very tough battle of Guillain Barre Syndrome (GBS), a rare autoimmune disease which attacks the nerves and causes paralysis. Kelli has been battling this disease for over 7 weeks now and was first admitted to the hospital on 3/30/21. Her doctors believe it was brought on by the 2nd Pfizer COVID vaccine. Kelli was healthy before the vaccine and got it to protect her patients.

“One of the real issues that is not being discussed enough is the degree of what is happening in these cases involving adverse vaccine responses,” Dr.[Janelle] Routhier [former executive within the pharmaceutical and medical device industries] said. “We typically think of vaccine reactions as being things like rashes, fevers, or other symptoms that eventually recede. What we are seeing now are what can be more properly described as being vaccine injuries. People are being physically harmed by vaccines and that is to some degree atypical.” (Read more from “People Injured by Coronavirus Vaccine Turn to GoFundMe for Support” HERE)

Trump: ‘Biden Is Perhaps The Most Unpatriotic President In American History’

/1 Comment/in , , /by

By Washington Examiner. Former President Donald Trump questioned his successor’s patriotism during an Independence Day celebration in Florida.

Trump said President Joe Biden “is perhaps the most unpatriotic president in American history” because his administration canceled a planned Fourth of July fireworks celebration at Mount Rushmore in South Dakota due to concerns about the transmission of COVID-19.

“We had fireworks at Mount Rushmore that were so incredible … and it was wonderful, and then, I saw the other day that they refuse to allow it to happen again. I think they do it in spite,” he told a Sarasota crowd Saturday night. “It’s so ridiculous. It’s so sad.” . . .

Trump alleged that the Left wants “to cancel the heroes on Mount Rushmore,” jokingly saying they want to replace the likeness of President Thomas Jefferson at the Jefferson Memorial in Washington, D.C., with that of Al Sharpton or Biden.

“[It’s] not acceptable. We stopped that. That was going to — they were heading that way, and I signed the bill [saying], ‘If you touch it, you go to jail for 10 years,’ and everyone turned around, and they went back home,” he said in an apparent reference to a June 2020 executive order designed to protect monuments and statues from vandalism.

Rep. Matt Gaetz Promises A Crowd He’ll Nominate Donald Trump For House Speaker

By Business Insider. Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz on Saturday told a crowd of Trump supporters that he’ll nominate the former president to the House Speaker role.

“After the next election cycle when we take back the House of Representatives, when we send [current Speaker] Nancy Pelosi back to the filth of San Francisco, my commitment to you is that my vote for Speaker of the US House of Representatives will go to Donald J. Trump,” Gaetz, a Republican representative from Florida, promised at a Trump rally in Sarasota, Florida.

Thousands of Trump supporters gathered on Saturday for the “Save America” rally to celebrate Independence Day.

Trump last month said he would be interested in running for a House seat in 2022, with the goal of becoming Speaker and launching an impeachment inquiry into now President Joe Biden. (Read more from “Rep. Matt Gaetz Promises A Crowd He’ll Nominate Donald Trump For House Speaker” HERE)

Hunter Biden Paid Joe’s Bills While He Was VP

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Hunter Biden complained that ‘half’ of his salary went to paying his father’s bills while he was Vice President, casting doubt on the Joe’s previous claims that he’s never benefited from his son’s business dealings.

The bills included a $190-a-month AT&T phone bill and thousands in repairs on Joe’s lakeside home in Wilmington. . .

Hunter, according to emails, had to foot a $190-a-month AT&T phone bill for his father, and pay for repairs to his lakeside property in Wilmington, Delaware. At the time, Hunter was working as the interim CEO of Paradigm Global Advisors and he’d also founded the investment firm Rosemont Seneca Partners. . .

But in emails between Hunter and Eric Schwerin, his business partner at Rosemont Seneca, in 2010, they discussed how much they needed to spend paying Joe’s bills.

The subject was ‘JRB bills’ – which match Joe’s initials – and described how $2,600 was to be paid to a contractor for a ‘stone retaining wall’ at Joe’s home, along with $1,475 to be paid to a painter for the ‘back wall and columns’ of the property and $1,239 to a builder who’d fixed the AC at Joe’s late mother’s home. He rented that house to the Secret Service for $2,200 a month. (Read more from “Hunter Biden Paid Joe’s Bills While He Was VP” HERE)

Tbilisi Pride March Cancelled After Protestors Storm Activists’ Headquarters

/0 Comments/in , /by

Organisers have cancelled a Pride march in Georgia after far-right demonstrators stormed LGBTQ activists’ headquarters and attacked journalists in violence that the country’s prime minister appeared to blame on the event itself.

Video and photographs showed anti-gay protesters scaling a three-storey building to break into the headquarters of the Tbilisi Pride march in the Georgian capital, while elsewhere men with long beards in priests’ clothing punched and kicked journalists, with as many as 20 injured.

One journalist said he was beaten with a stick while others reported having their cameras and other equipment broken.

Irakli Garibashvili, the prime minister, on Monday appeared to claim the Pride organisers had provoked the violence, saying it was “unreasonable” to hold the demonstration in a public place that could lead to “civil confrontation”. Meanwhile, a member of parliament accused the “radical opposition” of sponsoring the pride events.

Over 1,000 Afghan Troops Flee Taliban As U.S. Embarks On Final Withdrawal

/0 Comments/in , /by

Over 1000 Afghan security personnel were reportedly forced to retreat into Tajikistan over the weekend after Taliban fighters advanced in Northern Afghanistan.

The escalation comes as the United States has been drawing down troops from Afghanistan, where the U.S. has been fighting for nearly two decades following the September 11 terrorist attacks.

“The Taliban cut off all the roads and these people had nowhere to go but to cross the border,” a senior Afghan official told Reuters on Monday.

The United States vacated Bagram Airfield, its biggest airbase in Afghanistan, late last week—a move toward the complete withdrawal of all foreign forces. NATO also has withdrawn forces, and is expected to complete the process before the U.S. has completely left Afghanistan.

Communist Party Official’s Brutal Assault On Two Scientists Overshadows Chinese Space Walk

/0 Comments/in , /by

As China celebrated the success of its first spacewalk outside the new Tiangong space station on Sunday, the country’s main aerospace company was drawing attention online for a very different reason.

The state-owned China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC) has faced a backlash after news emerged that a Communist Party official at its subsidiary had allegedly attacked two prominent space scientists — including an 85-year-old woman.

The alleged brutal assault, which took place in early June, was brought to wider public attention on Saturday by a report from the state-run magazine China News Weekly. Chinese leaders have repeatedly stressed the importance of scientific and technological innovation, seeing it as a “main battleground” for competition with the West. Chinese President Xi Jinping himself has hailed the country’s top scientists as “the national treasure, the pride of the people and the glory of the nation.”

But the jarring fact that Chinese scientists can allegedly still be trampled — in this case seemingly quite literally — by an unscrupulous Communist Party official who apparently went unpunished for weeks has sparked a mixture of anger, disappointment and shame.
