/0 Comments/in , , /by

By The Federalist. The FBI refused to answer questions about the agency’s possible provocative involvement with the Jan. 6 Capitol riots during a Tuesday hearing on Capitol Hill.

“How many FBI agents or confidential informants actively participated in the events of Jan. 6?” Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz asked the Executive Assistant Director for the FBI’s National Security Branch Jill Sanborn.

“I can’t go into the specifics of sources and methods,” Sanborn said.

“Did any FBI agents or confidential informants actively participate in the events of Jan. 6, yes or no?” Cruz pressed.

“I can’t answer that,” Sanborn said, despite The New York Times revealing in September the presence of federal agents within the crowd that stormed the Capitol. Earlier this month, Newsweek revealed in a blockbuster story the presence of secret commandos with “shoot-to-kill” authority.

WATCH: Dr. Fauci Rages at Paul, Accuses Him of Creating ‘Catastrophic Epidemic’ in Tense Showdown; Clash Over Accusations of ‘Cheap Politics’ Regarding Alleged ‘Takedown’ of Other Scientists

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By New York Post. Dr. Anthony Fauci raged at Sen. Rand Paul on Tuesday, accusing the Kentucky Republican of “distorting” everything about him and fueling threats against the White House chief medical adviser and his family.

During their verbal throwdown before the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, Fauci accused Paul of claiming he was “responsible for the death of 4 to 5 million people, which is really irresponsible.”

“What happens when he gets out and accuses me of things that are completely untrue,” the top health official said, “is that kindles the crazies out there, and I have threats upon my life, harassment of my family and my children with obscene phone calls because people are lying about me.”

Fauci then referenced the arrest last month of 25-year-old Kuachua Brillion Xiong, of California, who was found to have a “hit list” with Fauci’s name on it when he was pulled over on Interstate 80 in Iowa.

“They found in his car an AR-15 and multiple magazines of ammunition,” the top doc said, “because he thinks that maybe I’m killing people. (Read more from “Fauci Rages at Paul, Accuses Him of Creating ‘Catastrophic Epidemic’ in Tense Showdown” HERE)

Fauci, Paul Clash Over Accusations of ‘Cheap Politics’ Regarding Alleged ‘Takedown’ of Other Scientists

By Fox News. Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., and Dr. Anthony Fauci got into a heated exchange marked with personal attacks during a Tuesday hearing dealing with the response to COVID-19 variants.

Paul, a fierce critic of the National Institute of Allergy and Infections Diseases director, accused Fauci of playing a role in smearing doctors from Harvard, Oxford and Stanford who had positions different from his own.

“In an email exchange with Dr. [Francis] Collins, you conspire, and I quote here directly from the email, to ‘create a quick and devastating published takedown’ of three prominent epidemiologists from Harvard, Oxford and Stanford,” Paul said, referring to the recently retired National Institutes of Health director.

Paul went on to cite the email exchange, in which Collins was discussing the Great Barrington Declaration, which opposed large-scale lockdowns as a response to the pandemic in favor of “focused protection” and herd immunity.

In response, Fauci sent Collins articles from Wired and The Nation that had already slammed this position. While Fauci himself had not penned those pieces, Paul accused him of going along with Collins’ effort to smear the doctors behind the Great Barrington Declaration.

WATCH: Talk Show Host Has Been Sounding the Alarm on Democrats for Years, Shares What Is Going to Doom the Party’s Chances at Power

/1 Comment/in , /by

Bill Maher sounded the alarm on Democrats once again and shared what he thought could be the party’s “Achilles heel” in its chances of maintaining power.

“I think you can claim the moral high ground if you’re anti,” the host of HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher” told Alabama.com in a piece published Monday.

“I feel like that’s the Achilles heel of the left right now,” he added. “They identify issues mostly by what they can feel superior to another person for.”

The HBO host talked about his recent tour through southern cities and said it was great to have people in the same room together, on both the left and right, having a good laugh.

‘I Felt the Vomit Coming Up’: Founder of Parody Conspiracy Theory Shocks News Anchors Live On-Air (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

The founder of the viral ‘Birds Aren’t Real’ parody conspiracy theory shocked news anchors after he appeared to projectile vomit live on-air in what can only be described as a bizarre interview.

During the viral interview with WGN-TV, 23-year-old Peter McIndoe is seen drinking from a mug when one of the anchors asks him how it isn’t just Gen Z that falls for “conspiracy theories” when suddenly McIndoe appears to projectile vomit.

“Oh my God, I’m so nervous,” McIndoe says, as he appears to then choke. The network then switches to b-roll clips of ‘Birds Aren’t Real’ supporters while McIndoe is heard in the background gagging. . .

In a statement to Newsweek, McIndoe said as soon as he “heard the news anchor use the word ‘Conspiracy Theory’” when referring to his movement “I absolutely retched, couldn’t hold it in.”

“That interview could have deprogrammed so many blind sheeple watching the mainstream media on a Thursday morning. I could have finally exposed the bird drone surveillance plot to the most blind of audience,” he reportedly said. “But I couldn’t keep my stomach beast in my chest.” (Read more from “‘I Felt the Vomit Coming Up’: Founder of Parody Conspiracy Theory Shocks News Anchors Live On-Air (VIDEO)” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , /by

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) on Thursday incorporated the cast of Hamilton as part of the January 6 remembrance, sparking further mockery that the Democrats are “literally” engaging in “theater.”

“To begin the conversation, we’re privileged to have a contribution from one of the great creative talents of our time, Lin-Manuel Miranda,” Pelosi said.

“May his beautiful words be an inspiration to us. Among the words he said in the music, we’ll make it right for you. If we lay a strong enough foundation, we’ll pass it on to you, and we’ll give the world to you,” she continued:

In turn, Miranda introduced other cast members who performed “Dear Theodosia” as part of the January 6 remembrance:

Florida Resident Tells ‘Woke’ New Yorkers to Head Back North in Scathing Letter (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

An angry Floridian has a message for their snowbird neighbors: If you’re woke, go back to New York.

A number of cars with New York license plates parked on Palm Beach streets received notices on their windows over the weekend urging them to leave if they lean left politically, police said.

“If you are one of those ‘woke’ people — leave Florida. You will be happier elsewhere, as will we,” reads the missive, typed in all capital letters.

The threatening letters were found on cars parked along Sunrise Avenue, Bradley Place and Seaview Avenue in the ritzy seaside enclave about an hour north of Fort Lauderdale that’s long been a beloved locale for New Yorkers who head south for the winter.

Concerned citizens reported the letters to the Palm Beach Police Department on Sunday but after a brief investigation, cops determined a crime hadn’t been committed.

Tucker Scolds Ted Cruz for Calling Jan. 6 a ‘Terrorist Attack’ (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Fox News host Tucker Carlson lambasted Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) on Wednesday for the unforgivable sin of calling the Capitol insurrection a “violent terrorist attack,” accusing the ultra-conservative lawmaker of “repeating the talking points that Merrick Garland has written.” . . .

“We are approaching a solemn anniversary this week,” Cruz said in a Senate Rules Committee hearing. “And it is an anniversary of a violent terrorist attack on the Capitol, where we saw the men and women of law enforcement demonstrate incredible courage, incredible bravery, risk their lives for the Capitol.”

Those comments did not sit well with Carlson, who has led the charge in downplaying the Jan. 6 riots while suggesting the Capitol attack is a “false flag” orchestrated by federal agents in an effort to “purge” conservative Americans. . .

Claiming Cruz “doesn’t use a single word by accident,” Carlson noted that Cruz is a “lawyer” and “every word” the senator says is “used intentionally.” He then mocked the notion that anyone could rationally think it’s an insurrection when a seditious mob violently storms the seat of government to overthrow an election.

“He described Jan. 6 as a violent terrorist attack. Of all the things Jan. 6 was, it was definitely not a violent terrorist attack. It wasn’t an insurrection,” Carlson exclaimed. “Was it a riot? Sure. It was not a violent terrorist attack. Sorry! So why are you telling us it was, Ted Cruz?” (Read more from “Tucker Scolds Ted Cruz for Calling Jan. 6 a ‘Terrorist Attack’” HERE)

This Is CNN: ‘Penalize’ Unvaccinated Americans (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

NYU professor of bioethics Arthur Caplan, a guest on CNN Wednesday, said it is time to “shame” and “blame” unvaccinated Americans, adding that society should “penalize” them in a variety of ways, including higher hospital bills and insurance premiums.

“By and large, if you’re vaccinated and boosted, even if you get infected, you’re going to be fine. You’re going to be fine here. It’s the unvaccinated who are going to be hurt so why should anyone who is boosted bother at this point to do anything that makes the unvaccinated more safe?” CNN’s John Berman asked.

“I want us to act as a community. I want us to act as a team. We’re fighting a war and need all hands on deck. I don’t want to reject those who still haven’t done the right thing. I’ll condemn them. I’ll shame them. I’ll blame them, but I don’t want to exclude them,” Caplan replied, before detailing his desire to “penalize” unvaccinated Americans and implement more coercive tactics to corner them into getting the shot.

Caplan continued (emphasis added):

They’ve got to come around. Were not going to win this war — we’re going to be talking about COVID this time next year if we don’t get more people to do the right thing. So we can’t write them off. We can penalize them more. We can say you will have to pay more on your hospital bill. You can’t get life insurance or disability insurance at affordable rates if you aren’t vaccinated. Those companies should not treat us as equals in terms of what the financial burdens are that that disease imposes.

White House: During Jan. 6 Anniversary Remarks, Biden Will Discuss ‘The Role His Predecessor Had’ (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

While marking the one-year anniversary of the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol riot this Thursday, President Joe Biden will attribute blame for the chaotic and violent episode to then-President Donald Trump, according to White House press secretary Jen Psaki.

During a press briefing on Wednesday, Psaki was asked whether the president will discuss Trump’s “role in the riot.”

“Yes,” the press secretary responded.

Psaki said that she expects the president to discuss “the singular responsibility President Trump” bears for the “chaos” as well as the “carnage.” She said that Biden “will forcibly push back on the lies spread by” Trump.

She said that Biden will talk about “the importance in history of the peaceful transfer of power, of what we need to do to protect our own democracy and be forward looking. But he will also reflect on the role his predecessor had.”
