Tucker Carlson And Thomas Massie Accuse Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Of COVID Vaccine Bait And Switch

/4 Comments/in , , /by

After a succession of puzzling decisions by Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s Department of Health and Human Services on mRNA vaccines, erstwhile supporters are going public with their objections.

In an open letter to Kennedy and President Donald Trump, Tucker Carlson, former Republican Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, Republican Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie, and over 100 other journalists, activists, physicians and nurses expressed a sense of disillusionment with the alliance between the Make America Great Again (MAGA) and Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movements that help clinch the 2024 presidential election. Messenger RNA (mRNA) is the main technology platform behind Pfizer and Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccines.

The letter provides the clearest signal yet that support of the Trump administration from the MAHA grassroots has frayed — but represents the culmination of months of quiet grumbling and speculation about whether Kennedy truly has control of his own health department. Prominent critics of the handling of the COVID-19 pandemic under the Biden administration like Robert Malone and Bret Weinstein also signed on.

“Millions of concerned citizens set aside partisan differences and identities to support the historic MAGA/MAHA alliance,” the letter reads. “Instead of decisive policy actions on these core issues, we see distractions, linguistic misdirections, and watered-down announcements that avoid serious action on the deadly mRNA injections.”

The letter explicitly refutes the argument of some senior administration officials that nutrition issues provide a more winning argument in the midterm elections. (Read more from “Tucker Carlson And Thomas Massie Accuse Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Of COVID Vaccine Bait And Switch” HERE)

/1 Comment/in , , /by

President Trump launched his counter assault to a decision by the major TV networks to boycott his White House events — Trump TV.

Labeling it as “essential” television, the presidential network launched Monday evening.

“TRUMP TV IS STREAMING NOW. 24/7, updated in real time, with top past moments, announcements, and the latest and greatest from the administration all in one place. Not every big moment has made it on your tv, now it can,” the administration wrote.

Its first broadcast was a speech Trump gave on July 3rd at Mount Rushmore.

The Trump TV rollout topped a long day of escalating fights with the media — a battle that has no end in sight. (Read more from “Trump Strikes Back at TV Boycott with a Dramatic Move of His Own” HERE)

The ‘Unprofessional’ Item Gen Z Brings to Interviews Could be Costing Them Jobs

/1 Comment/in , , , /by

In today’s brutal job market, Gen Z is bringing their absolute A-game to interviews.

But they’re also bringing their emotional support iced lattes.

A generational debate has erupted online over a dead-simple question: Is waltzing into a job interview clutching an iced coffee completely unprofessional, or totally fine?

The clash kicked off when TikTok corporate recruiter @caitlinrecruiter called out Gen Z candidates for arriving to interviews with iced lattes in hand. Drawing on her 16 years of experience placing candidates at Fortune 500 companies, she warned job seekers against the casual habit.

“When you show up with an iced coffee or an iced latte, it is perceived — from my opinion and a hiring standpoint—that this interview is just a stop on your list of errands for the day,” she alleged in the viral clip. “It looks like you went to Target, went to Starbucks, and now you’re stopping by your interview before moving on to the next thing.” (Read more from “The ‘Unprofessional’ Item Gen Z Brings to Interviews Could be Costing Them Jobs” HERE)

Rep. Lauren Boebert has Simple Response to Claim She had Sex with 3 Staffers, Including 2 Women

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Rep. Lauren Boebert gave a simple response to a viral claim that she had affairs with three staff members — including two women: she’s straight.

Boebert (R-Col.), who famously pondered in April, “why is everybody so horny” in Congress after a slew of sex scandals, faces a sworn ethics complaint from a political action committee that has targeted her for years and is led by a political activist who has peddled dubious claims about her in the past.

“Well, I’m not a lesbian or bisexual, and I have never, ever been in any inappropriate relationship, nor have I ever been sexually involved with any staff,” Boebert, 39, told Sources Say News after the bombshell accusations emerged.

Her office called the claims “utterly false.” Boebert has had a restraining order against the man behind the complaint, American Muckrakers’ leader David Wheeler, since 2022.

“They come from an activist who has long recycled sensational claims, including numerous baseless accusations previously fact-checked as false.”

Members of Congress are prohibited from having sex with their staffers under House rules enacted in the wake of #MeToo. Over the past year, there has been a push to extend that ban to other staffers as well. (Read more from “Rep.

Routine Airport Screening Takes Unexpected Turn After TSA Officer Spots Unusual Detail

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A passenger’s attempt to bring an unusual item through airport security in Florida quickly caught the attention of highly trained Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officers.

At Tampa International Airport recently, TSA officers discovered a 4-inch, double-edged knife concealed inside a baseball bat-shaped flashlight, according to an employee story published on the agency’s website.

TSA Officer Andrew Carter was screening the passenger’s carry-on bag with an X-ray machine when he noticed something unusual about the flashlight — and flagged the bag for a closer look.

“The makeup and composition of the flashlight appeared unusual and outside what I typically expect, so I determined it required further examination,” Carter said in the published note.

Supervisory TSA Officer Michael Slaughter then searched the bag — and felt a mass beneath its lining. (Read more from “Routine Airport Screening Takes Unexpected Turn After TSA Officer Spots Unusual Detail” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

An elderly Walmart customer was beaten to death by the parents of a teen employee who he had argued with after accusing her of nearly ramming his wife with a shopping cart, according to his grieving widow.

Bert Atienza died of blunt head trauma at a hospital on June 8, a day after two people attacked him inside a Walmart in Norfolk, Va., WTKR reported on Monday.

“My husband was still able to speak, he said, ‘Help me, get up,’ but I told him, ‘no you’re bleeding. Your mouth is bleeding. Ambulance is coming,” Atienza’s wife Josephine said.

“I look at him again. He has no more consciousness.”

The 77-year-old was grocery shopping with his wife of 42 years after a morning at church when a 17-year-old employee tore down the aisle the couple was in, almost clipping Josephine with a cart.

Surveillance Patent Shows Flock Spying Way Worse Than Advertised

/9 Comments/in , , /by

Flock Safety’s own patent reveals that its spying capabilities are far worse than advertised, undercutting the company’s and its defenders’ claims that Flock cameras are simply license plate readers.

The backlash against the Flock surveillance system has been swift and, in many cases, highly effective, with activists and citizens forcing states, counties, and law enforcement agencies to end their contracts with the company. As more and more counties cut ties, Flock has been forced to defend its technology on the grounds that it is a useful tool, not as intrusive as its critics make it out to be, and with new “safeguards” in place, they can crack down on police officers who abuse the system.

But Flock’s patent reveals a system more powerful than the company lets on in public statements.

The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) granted Flock’s patent, “System and method for object based query of video content captured by a dynamic surveillance network,” in Aug. 2022. The patent names Flock’s current CEO, Garrett Langley, and Flock co-founder Matt Feury as the inventors.

Although Flock’s Frequently Asked Questions claim its technology is “not a live-tracking system” and that each image captured by cameras is a “standalone vehicle event,” the patent shows the system was built to do the opposite.

Foreign Government Slaps Special Forces Legend With Injunction During Podcast

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Former Special Air Service operator Christian Craighead was hit with an injunction by the British government during an interview on the “Shawn Ryan Show” released Wednesday.

Craighead, who was awarded the Conspicuous Gallantry Cross for his actions in a 2019 terrorist attack on a hotel in Nairobi, Kenya, wrote a book about his experience with the elite special-operations unit, the Daily Mail reported. During an interview with podcaster Shawn Ryan, Craighead revealed just how expensive the legal battle over his book, “One Man In,” had become as Ryan mentioned Craighead received an email regarding an injunction.

During the interview, Ryan noted that the British government was seeking to serve Craighead with an injunction in the United States. Ryan recommended that Craighead talk with attorney Tim Parliatore, who previously represented Ryan and whose past clients included President Donald Trump.

“There is nobody better for this shit and that dude will fuck these people up,” Ryan told Craighead, recounting past legal clashes, including one with Republican Texas Rep. Dan Crenshaw.

“They just don’t want me to tell the story. It’s a story that most of the world saw. It was on all the newspapers,” Craighead told Ryan. “This does not break the Official Secrets Act. They’re just desperate for me not to tell the story. Why? Why would you want to try and stop this?” (Read more from “Foreign Government Slaps Special Forces Legend With Injunction During Podcast” HERE)

Holdout Juror in Lindsay Clancy Mistrial, Michael P. Desronvil, Speaks out for First Time after Intense Backlash

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The holdout juror who sparked a mistrial in Lindsay Clancy’s Massachusetts murder trial has spoken out publicly for the first time to defend himself amid an online frenzy — as his lawyer dubbed him “an American Hero and Champion of Justice” who loves the USA and President Trump.

Michael P. Desronvil, 48, clapped back at accusations from fellow jurors that he refused to budge on his belief Clancy was guilty of murdering her three kids despite expressing doubts.

“I didn’t have any doubts. As I tried to explain different possible theories during deliberation, I kept getting cut off as if I had doubts based on the evidence present,” Desronvil said in a statement to News Nation on Thursday. “Based on all the physical evidence, key witnesses, and what the prosecution presents, I thought it was enough proof that she [Clancy] knew exactly what she was doing and planned.”

Desronvil — a father from a Haitian immigrant family and a devout Christian with a history of abuse allegations — was the lone juror who refused to find Clancy not guilty of murder by reason of insanity, a decision which turned the six-week trial on its head and dragged him to the center of the explosive case.

The Bridgewater resident comes from a large family of Haitian immigrants who moved to the US and settled in Massachusetts in 1982, meaning he would have been about 4 years old when he arrived in America.

Common Drug Millions Already Take Could Slash Dementia Chances, Study Suggests

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Commonly used osteoporosis drugs were linked to a lower risk of Alzheimer’s disease and other types of dementia in a large study of older adults.

Among a group of 121,492 adults age 60 or older, the use of nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates (NBP) was associated with a 16% lower risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias compared to those who did not take osteoporosis medications.

The risk was 24% less compared to people taking other types of osteoporosis medications.

A nitrogen-containing bisphosphonate is a type of medication used to slow bone loss and reduce fracture risk, mainly in people with osteoporosis. Some common types include alendronate, ibandronate, risedronate and zoledronate.

Osteoporosis occurs when the bones become weaker and more likely to break due to a loss of bone mass, according to the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS). The condition is especially common among older adults. (Read more from “Common Drug Millions Already Take Could Slash Dementia Chances, Study Suggests” HERE)
