Pentagon Creates UFO Task Force (VIDEO)

Pentagon officials on Friday confirmed the existence of a Navy-led “Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force” that will monitor ongoing encounters with strange aerial objects and determine whether these phenomena should be perceived as a threat.

Approved on Aug. 4 by Deputy Secretary of Defense David L. Norquist, the task force was officially launched “to improve its understanding of, and gain insight into, the nature and origins of UAPs,” according to a Friday evening news release. “The mission of the task force is to detect, analyze and catalog UAPs that could potentially pose a threat to U.S. national security.”

Pentagon officials did not immediately respond to questions about the timing of this announcement, what sparked it, or whether the UAP designation pertains directly to alien spacecraft.

“The Department of Defense and the military departments take any incursions by unauthorized aircraft into our training ranges or designated airspace very seriously and examine each report,” the release states. “This includes examinations of incursions that are initially reported as UAP when the observer cannot immediately identify what he or she is observing.” (Read more from “Pentagon Creates UFO Task Force” HERE)

Trump Refuses to Fund U.S. Postal Service (VIDEO)

President Donald Trump told Fox Business’ Maria Bartiromo on Thursday morning that he would block additional funding and election assistance for the US Postal Service[.] . . .

Trump said in a press conference on Wednesday evening that he would not sign off on either the $25 billion in emergency funds for the USPS or the $3.5 billion in election assistance to help states that Democrats have advocated in a federal COVID-19 relief bill.

He said the same thing during the Fox Business interview on Thursday morning.

“They want $25 billion — billion — for the post office. Now they need that money in order to have the post office work so it can take all of these millions and millions of ballots,” Trump said. “Now, in the meantime, they aren’t getting there. By the way, those are just two items. But if they don’t get those two items, that means you can’t have universal mail-in voting … because they’re not equipped.”

CDC Says Recovered COVID-19 Patients Are Protected for up to Three Months; Study: Intense Workouts Heighten Risk for COVID

By Washington Examiner. . .The updated guidance states, “People who have tested positive for COVID-19 do not need to quarantine or get tested again for up to three months as long as they do not develop symptoms again.” It’s the first acknowledgment from the agency that infected people may gain immunity for a period of time.

It is unclear what the CDC based that recommendation on. Only two studies have examined the duration of immunity for people who have recovered from a coronavirus infection. One study, published in Nature Medicine, examined 37 asymptomatic and 37 symptomatic patients in China and found that “antibodies in a high proportion of individuals who recovered from [the coronavirus] infection start to decrease within 2–3 months after infection.” (Read more from “CDC Says Recovered COVID-19 Patients Are Protected for up to Three Months” HERE)

Intense Workouts Can Stress Immune System, Heighten Risk of Respiratory Illnesses, Coronavirus: Study

By Fox News. Extreme exercise routines like marathon running, Crossfit and working out to exhaustion could make some individuals more vulnerable to contracting COVID-19, new research suggests.

Doctors at the American College of Sports Medicine say that some high-intensity forms of fitness can increase a person’s risk of developing the new coronavirus because of increased stress to the immune system that makes it harder to fight off viruses for a short period of time.

“This may not be the time to train for peak performance,” doctors note in the August edition of ACSM’s “Current Sports Medicine Reports,” explaining that this is highly important for those with a heightened risk for coronavirus, who should “refrain from exhaustive exercise,” unusually high exercise workloads” and “overtraining.”

After a high-intensity workout like long-distance running or heavy lifting, ACSM Dr. Thomas Best, a team physician at the University of Miami, tells Fox News the immune system becomes suppressed for a couple of weeks following the exhaustive spurt of exercise, which can increase the risk for viral illnesses like COVID-19.

“High intensity can have short-term detrimental effects — more specific is COVID-19, and the risks to the cardiovascular system,” Best said. (Read more from “Intense Workouts Can Stress Immune System, Heighten Risk of Respiratory Illnesses, Coronavirus: Study” HERE)

Disturbing Music Album Released for Transgender Children

Proponents of children questioning and even changing their biological sex have produced a musical compilation dubbed Trans and Nonbinary Kids Mix to benefit a summer camp in New Hampshire that caters to parents who believe young children can choose their gender.

According to the LGBT Foundation, children understand and should be counted in this category:

Non-binary is used to describe people who feel their gender cannot be defined within the margins of gender binary. Instead, they understand their gender in a way that goes beyond simply identifying as either a man or woman. Some non-binary people may feel comfortable within trans communities and find this is a safe space to be with others who don’t identify as cis, but this isn’t always the case.

. . .“I think people underestimate the ability for younger kids to know about gender,” they say, NPR reported using a confusing pronoun. “There’s a lot of research that shows that kids know what their gender is, even around age 2.”

“You can’t tell a kid to not think about something,” Be says. “I would say in general, if a parent is uncomfortable with talking about anything big like this, like how a kid identifies, you are missing a big opportunity to connect with your child, to love your child and support your child. That’s a big problem, gender aside.” (Read more from “Disturbing Music Album Released for Transgender Children” HERE)

President Trump Accepts Endorsement From New York City Police Union

The New York City Police Benevolent Association endorsed President Donald Trump on Friday – a union representing 24,000 police officers in the city.

Trump welcomed a group of enthusiastic New York City officers to his club in Bedminster, New Jersey, for an event to announce the endorsement.

The police union president, Patrick Lynch, gave a passionate speech thanking the president for standing up for law enforcement at a time when many were afraid to do so. Lynch said:

I cannot remember when we’ve ever endorsed for the president of the United States until now. That’s how important this is. …. Mr. President, we’re fighting for our lives out there we don’t want this to spread to the country, we need your strong voice across the country.

Trump delivered a speech warning of the dangers they were facing if former Vice President Joe Biden and Sen. Kamala Harris won the presidential election. (Read more from “President Trump Accepts Endorsement From New York City Police Union” HERE)

Durham Investigation: Corrupt FBI Attorney Who Falsified Carter Page FISA Warrant, Expected to Plead Guilty

A top FBI lawyer who fabricated evidence in a federal spy warrant against Trump campaign affiliate Carter Page is expected to plead guilty to federal charges brought by U.S. Attorney John Durham. Kevin Clinesmith, who is expected to admit to deliberately fabricating evidence in a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant application, used to spy on a former campaign affiliate of President Donald Trump, was a top attorney in the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Office of General Counsel (OGC) and a key agency attorney under fired former FBI Director James Comey.

Clinesmith is the first individual to be charged as part of U.S. Attorney John Durham’s investigation into the efforts in 2016 and 2017 to spy on the Trump campaign and Trump administration. Both Durham and Attorney General William Barr stated at the conclusion of the OIG investigation of the Page FISA warrants that they had reason to believe the entire investigation of Trump, which allegedly began in late July of 2016, was not legally predicated. Durham was tapped by Barr in May of 2019 to investigate the Russian collusion hoax and determine whether any criminal charges against those who perpetrated it were warranted.

Clinesmith’s deliberate falsification of a federal spy warrant was first revealed last December following a lengthy investigation by the Department of Justice (DOJ) Office of the Inspector General (OIG), headed by Michael Horowitz. Horowitz and his team wrote in a 434-page report that Clinesmith — identified in the report as “OGC Attorney” — altered an email from a separate U.S. federal agency, believed to be the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), to falsely state that Page had never worked with the CIA to investigate suspected Russia agents operating within the U.S. In fact, as Clinesmith was told by the operative, Page had worked with the CIA previously, as well as with the FBI. . .

Clinesmith’s name first made national news after his anti-Trump text messages to another FBI attorney, Sally Moyer, surfaced following a separate OIG investigation of anti-Trump bias from top FBI attorneys and investigators.

Former News Host Uses Racist Term While Condemning Trump Supporters’ Alleged Racism

Former MSNBC host Donny Deutsch apologized on Friday for using the term “yellow man” while criticizing “racist” Americans who trusted information from President Trump about the coronavirus pandemic.

Referring to a recent NPR-PBS-Marist poll, Deutsch said the approximately one-third of Americans who say they trust Trump must be racists. “How do one in three Americans still believe this man about corona[virus] or anything?” Deutsch asked on Friday’s “Morning Joe.”

“And the answer is only one thing,” he went on. “One in three Americans are racists, one in three Americans are terrified that this country, by the year 2040, is not going to be majority White — that the Black man or brown man or the yellow man or woman are going to come and take their jobs and take away their suburbs.”

Later in the program, Deutsch said “yellow man” was a “stupid term” and he apologized if he offended anybody.

“[I] was just trying to make a point and I apologize if I offended anybody. People know me, know that — where my heart is,” he said. (Read more from “Former News Host Uses Racist Term While Condemning Trump Supporters’ Alleged Racism” HERE)

Hillary Clinton Is Eager to Serve in Biden Administration

. . .Speaking at The 19th Represents Summit on Thursday, Clinton was asked if she would accept a job in the Biden administration.

“I’m ready to help in any way I can,” Clinton responded, “because I think this will be a moment where every American — I don’t care what party you are, I don’t care what age, race, gender, I don’t care — every American should want to fix our country… So if you’re asked to serve, you should certainly consider that.”

Clinton previously served alongside Joe Biden in the Obama administration as Secretary of State. Republicans were critical about her tenure at the State Department between her handling of the 2012 Benghazi terrorist attack and the controversy over her private email server, which plagued her 2016 presidential campaign. . .

She also expressed her overwhelming approval of Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., as Biden’s running mate.

“I’m thrilled to welcome @KamalaHarris to a historic Democratic ticket,” Clinton tweeted Tuesday. “She’s already proven herself to be an incredible public servant and leader. And I know she’ll be a strong partner to @JoeBiden. Please join me in having her back and getting her elected.” (Read more from “Hillary Clinton Is Eager to Serve in Biden Administration” HERE)

Kamala Harris Not Eligible for Vice Presidency?; Graham: Biden-Harris Ticket Should Be Great Concern to All Christians

By Raw Story. Newsweek is being attacked after they ran an opinion column by John Eastman, a law professor at Chapman University. “Some Questions for Kamala Harris About Eligibility,” was the headline.

The opening of the story already speculates that Harris is somehow ineligible for the position because she’s also somehow ineligible to be president.

“The fact that Senator Kamala Harris has just been named the vice presidential running mate for presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden has some questioning her eligibility for the position,” said the Chapman University professor. “The 12th Amendment provides that ‘no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States.’ And Article II of the Constitution specifies that ‘[n]o person except a natural born citizen…shall be eligible to the office of President.’ Her father was (and is) a Jamaican national, her mother was from India, and neither was a naturalized U.S. citizen at the time of Harris’ birth in 1964. That, according to these commentators, makes her not a ‘natural born citizen’—and therefore ineligible for the office of the president and, hence, ineligible for the office of the vice president.” (Read more from “Kamala Harris Not Eligible for Vice Presidency?” HERE)

Franklin Graham Warns Biden-Harris Ticket ‘Should Be a Great Concern to All Christians’

By Fox News. Evangelist Franklin Graham, a prominent evangelical supporter of President Trump, is calling on Christians to take note of one issue presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden and his running mate Kamala Harris both adamantly support.

The son of the late Rev. Billy Graham notes, Biden-Harris “are labeled as the most pro-abortion presidential ticket in the history of our nation.”

“This should be a great concern to all Christians,” Graham, the president and CEO of Samaritan’s Purse, tweeted. “As a follower of Jesus Christ, I am pro-life [and] believe every life is precious to God.”

A Gallup poll from May found that almost a quarter of Democrats consider themselves pro-life, but Biden, who is Catholic, and Harris, a Baptist believer, both support abortion rights, in stark contrast to Trump and Vice President Mike Pence.
