Concerning Admission: Biden Admits Russia ‘Will Be Able to Prevail Over Time’ if It Invades Ukraine

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Biden blundered during his White House news conference Wednesday by saying that Russia’s military “will be able to prevail over time” if it launches an invasion of Ukraine — moments after suggesting that a “minor incursion” by Moscow on Kiev’s territory may see a less severe response from Washington and its NATO allies.

Biden began by vowing that “Russia will be held accountable” if it launches an attack against Ukraine, but then hedged by saying: “It depends on what it does.”

“It’s one thing if it’s a minor incursion, and then we end up having a fight about what to do and what not do, etc.,” the president went on. “But if they actually do what they’re capable of doing with the force they’ve massed on the border, it is going to be a disaster for Russia.”

“I’ve already shipped over $600 million worth of sophisticated equipment, defensive equipment to the Ukrainians,” Biden said moments later. “The cost of going into Ukraine in terms of the physical loss of life for the Russians — and they’ll, they’ll be able to prevail over time, but it’s going to be heavy. It’s going to be real. It’s going to be consequential.” (Read more from “Concerning Admission: Biden Admits Russia ‘Will Be Able to Prevail Over Time’ if It Invades Ukraine” HERE)

GOP Senators: Secret Service Hid Details of Hunter Biden’s Overseas Travel

/3 Comments/in , /by

Two Republican senators are demanding answers after the Secret Service refused to hand over details about Hunter Biden’s trips to Kazakhstan, Russia and China.

Biden, now 51, was granted Secret Service protection while his father was vice president from 2009-17 – although he requested it cease in July 2014.

At the time, he was a globe-trotting businessman, and Senators Ron Johnson of Wisconsin and Chuck Grassley of Iowa are investigating Biden for ‘his use of government-sponsored travel while he conducted private business.’

The senators have requested documents relating to Biden’s travel, and so far have received 259 pages from the Secret Service. But in a letter to director James Murray, they said that they ‘have serious concerns about the production’.

They note that the pages are heavily redacted, which they say is unnecessary for members of Congress, and they complained that they were missing entire years – 2010, 2011 and 2013. (Read more from “GOP Senators: Secret Service Hid Details of Hunter Biden’s Overseas Travel” HERE)

‘Anti-Work’ Threads on Reddit Are Fueling the Great Resignation

/0 Comments/in , /by

They say you have to work hard to get ahead, but some are finding that you can work very little and still do pretty well.

On Reddit, the “antiwork” subreddit is now one of the social network’s most active and engaged pages, after seeing explosive growth during the COVID-19 pandemic. It currently has more than 1.6 million users, up from 180,000 in October 2020. People post epic text and e-mail screenshots of quitting their jobs, but the real heroes are so-called “idlers” — those who stay in jobs doing the absolute minimum to get by while still collecting a paycheck.

“Everyone has hit their limit with COVID, overwork, their mortgages, rent payments and so many things with capitalism. There’s nothing wrong with wanting to take a break from that and do less of it,” said Doreen Ford, the page’s moderator. A 30-year-old living in Boston, Ford once held a job in retail, but for the past five years, she’s been self-employed as a dog walker, working about 25 hours a week.

She noted that the general idea behind the anti-work movement “is to reduce the coercive element of labor as much as possible by subverting capitalism,” and said that those active on the page are mainly far leftists who support Bernie Sanders and AOC, and, often also identify as socialists, communists and/or anarchists.

Among them are users like podcastquestions, who boasted that they make $80,000 a year by answering one to two calls a week “and literally nothing else.” Another user, an anonymous IT professional, bragged about taking things a step further, automating their gig at a law firm with “a simple script that performed [their] entire job” for over a year. Company brass didn’t catch on, and the employee was still paid $90,000 a year. (Read more from “‘Anti-Work’ Threads on Reddit Are Fueling the Great Resignation” HERE)

‘Trust the People’: Country Lifts Vaccine Passports, Mask Mandates

/0 Comments/in , /by

After the models upon which he based his policies proved to be “wildly incorrect,” British Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced Wednesday the lifting of COVID-19 vaccine passports, mask mandates and work-from-home guidance in England.

Regarding masks, the prime minister said the basic policy will be to “trust the judgment of the British people and no longer criminalize anyone who chooses not to wear one.”

“From tomorrow we will no longer require face masks in classrooms, and the Department for Education will shortly remove national guidance on their use in communal areas,” Johnson told the House of Commons.

Sajid Javid told a Downing Street press conference that “we cannot eradicate this virus and its future variants.”

“Instead we must learn to live with Covid in the same way we have to live with flu,” he said. (Read more from “‘Trust the People’: Country Lifts Vaccine Passports, Mask Mandates” HERE)

‘You Are Fighting God’: YouTube Pounces on Bible as ‘Hate Speech’

/0 Comments/in , /by

YouTube this week determined a sermon from popular Christian leader Pastor John MacArthur is “hate speech” for stating both biblical precept and scientific fact.

According to columnist Todd Starnes, YouTube “removed the clip and sent me a message saying the pastor’s sermon was hate speech.”

The Big Tech player said, “Our team has reviewed your content, and, unfortunately, we think it violates our hate speech policy. We’ve removed the following content from YouTube: ‘There is no such thing as transgender. You are either XX or XY. That’s it. – Pastor John MacArthur.'”

Starnes explained MacArthur is pastor of Grace Community Church and his messages are broadcast on hundreds of radio stations, he’s a best-selling author and a “beloved member” of the evangelical community.

His message on Sunday was part of a nationwide campaign to draw attention to Canadian legislation that would silence pastors on LGBT issues. That law, actually, threatens pastors who speak biblical, or even scientific, messages about the LGBT agenda with five years in prison.

LOL: Joe Biden Doesn’t Understand Why Voters Think He’s Unfit for Presidency

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden shrugged off polls showing voters believed he was not mentally fit, during a press conference at the White House on Wednesday.

One reporter asked Biden why only 40 percent of voters in a new Morning Consult survey believe Biden is mentally fit, 37 percent say he is in good health, and 43 percent believe he is stable.

“I have no idea,” Biden replied.

The president appeared aware of recent polling showing his approval ratings at record lows but expressed disbelief that his approval was low even among independents.

“I don’t believe the polls,” he said shortly. (Read more from “LOL: Joe Biden Doesn’t Understand Why Voters Think He’s Unfit for Presidency” HERE)

Vax All You Want, but It Won’t Stop Omicron, New Study Shows; Dr. Hot Mess Admits CDC Messaging Fail

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By New York Post. Even a fourth shot of a COVID-19 vaccine is “not good enough” to prevent Omicron, according to a preliminary study in Israel.

Sheba Hospital last month tested a fourth shot given to more than 270 medical workers, with 154 getting the Pfizer jab and 120 receiving Moderna.

The researchers revealed Monday that both groups showed a “slightly higher” increase in antibodies than after the third shot — but still not enough to prevent Omicron, the latest variant responsible for the vast majority of infections around the world.

“Despite increased antibody levels, the fourth vaccine only offers a partial defense against the virus,” said Dr. Gili Regev-Yochay, director of the hospital’s infection disease unit leading the study.

The study saw “many infected with Omicron who received the fourth dose,” she said. “Granted, a bit less than in the control group, but still a lot of infections.” (Read more from “Vax All You Want, but It Won’t Stop Omicron, New Study Shows” HERE)

Dr. Hot Mess Admits CDC Messaging Fail

By Breitbart. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Rochelle Walensky has promised to improve the agency’s messaging on the coronavirus after taking a wave of criticism from various media outlets.

Speaking with the Wall Street Journal (WSJ), Walensky said the CDC should have been more forthcoming with the public about how rules and regulations could be subject to change depending on the evolution of the virus and the data collected.

“I think what I have not conveyed is the uncertainty in a lot of these situations,” Walensky said.

According to the WSJ, Walensky has been undergoing extensive media prep and has been coached by a media consultant ahead of several public briefings she plans to hold in the coming future.

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) took a wave of criticism when it recently announced that people who test positive for the coronavirus can exit quarantine after just five days without a negative test if they show mild to no symptoms. Health experts believed the decision stemmed from a shortage in tests largely due to the Biden administration’s lack of preparation.

“CDC’s new guidance to drop isolation of positives to 5 days without a negative test is reckless,” tweeted Dr. Michael Mina, an epidemiologist and chief scientific officer at eMed. “I absolutely don’t want to sit next to someone who turned [positive] five days ago and hasn’t tested [negative].” (Read more form “Dr. Hot Mess Admits CDC Messaging Fail” HERE)

Doctor Suspended, Ordered to Undergo Psych Evaluation for Spreading COVID-19 ‘Misinformation’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A doctor in Maine with decades of experience treating patients has had her license suspended and will be forced to undergo a psychological evaluation after allegedly deceptively treating patients with hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin and sharing controversial opinions about COVID-19 online.

Last week, Maine’s Board of Licensure in Medicine voted unanimously to move forward with an investigation into Dr. Meryl Nass of Ellsworth after at least two complaints were lodged against her for spreading misinformation about COVID-19, Maine Public reported.

Nass, a doctor specializing in internal medicine who first obtained a license to practice medicine in Maine in 1997, was issued an immediate 30-day suspension on Jan. 12, according to the state medical board’s suspension order.

In the order, the board accused Nass of “engaging in the practice of fraud, deceit or misrepresentation in connection with services rendered within the scope of the license issued” as well as engaging in “unprofessional conduct” and conduct that “evidences a lack of ability or fitness to discharge” her duties.

The complaints against Nass include evidence that she used her personal blog to engage in “the public dissemination of ‘misinformation’ regarding the SARS CoV2 pandemic.” (Read more from “Doctor Suspended, Ordered to Undergo Psych Evaluation for Spreading COVID-19 ‘Misinformation'” HERE)

Poll: Liberals Make Up Astonishingly Small Chunk of Americans

/0 Comments/in , /by

Liberals may be filling up the offices at the White House right now. And the seats in Congress. And in newly filled judicial posts. And in education and the military. And don’t forget their dominance in social media. . .

The long history of liberals as an also-ran minority comes from Gallup.

Its new polling explains, “The way Americans identify themselves ideologically was unchanged in 2021, continuing the close division that has persisted in recent years between those describing themselves as either conservative or moderate, while a smaller share identifies as liberal. On average last year, 37% of Americans described their political views as moderate, 36% as conservative and 25% as liberal.”

While those defining themselves as liberal have grown from 17% three decades ago, those who are moderate have edged back from 43% to about 37%. Conservatives have gone from 36% to 40% to 36% over that time.

“Long term, Americans’ political ideology hasn’t varied greatly, but moderates were generally the lead group by a slight margin in most years from 1992 to 1998. Between 1999 and 2008, moderates and conservatives were about evenly matched (within two percentage points of each other) – similar to the pattern from 2015 through today. By contrast, in a unique period from 2009 to 2014 – the first six years of Barack Obama’s presidency – conservatives held a slight edge,” the report said.

COVID Patient Flown to Texas After Minnesota Doctors Decided to Pull Plug on Ventilator

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A Minnesota woman whose husband neared death from COVID appealed to the courts to force his hospital to halt their plans to pull the plug on the man’s ventilator.

Scott Quiner, 55, a reportedly unvaccinated man who had been battling COVID in Mercy Hospital’s ICU in Coon Rapids since November, was set to have his ventilator shut off on Jan. 13, according to a petition filed in court one day before the deadline by his wife, Anne Quiner.

Quiner said the decision by the hospital would “end my husband’s life” and appealed to the Anoka County Court for a restraining order against the hospital. “Absent an Order from the court,” she wrote in the petition, “my husband will die.”

On Jan. 13, a district court judge ordered Mercy Hospital not to turn off Quiner’s ventilator.

On Monday morning, Marjorie Holsten, an attorney representing Quiner’s wife, told the Star Tribune that Quiner has now been transferred to a hospital in Texas. (Read more from “COVID Patient Flown to Texas After Minnesota Doctors Decided to Pull Plug on Ventilator” HERE)
