Trump Goes Public With Decision About Martial Law to Hold Another Election; Trump Promises ‘Wild’ Protest in Washington DC on Jan. 6

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By WND. On Sunday, President Donald Trump put the rumors to rest that he would declare martial law. . .

Although the Electoral College has declared presumptive President-elect Joe Biden the winner of the Nov. 3 presidential election, the Trump campaign has insisted that there has been voter fraud in states that include Arizona, Nevada, Georgia, Michigan and Wisconsin, as well as Pennsylvania.

Despite multiple anecdotal claims of voting irregularities, proof has yet to surface that there was a widespread effort to distort the voting process in such a way that would have impacted the final results of the presidential election. Numerous affidavits testifying to various types of election fraud have been filed in courts in several swing states.

Zoom Executive Exposed as Chinese Communist Spy

/1 Comment/in , , /by

A former executive at Zoom, who shut down video conferences that were not flattering to China, was exposed as a spy for the Chinese Communist Party, according to the Department of Justice.

Xinjiang Jin, aka Julien Jin, was an employee of the American video conferencing company. The 39-year-old, who was based in China’s Zhejiang Province, worked as a “security technical leader” for tech company headquartered in San Jose, California. Jin served as a liaison between Zoom and the Chinese government after Beijing blocked the company’s service in China in September 2019.

Jin provided the Chinese Communist Party with information about users and meetings, even supplying the CCP with IP addresses from anyone who held anti-China sentiments, say federal prosecutors in Brooklyn, New York.

According to the complaint filed in United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, Jin reportedly participated in a plot to disrupt a series of meetings in May and June that commemorated the Tiananmen Square massacre, where at least 280 pro-democracy demonstrators were shot dead.

In the CCP’s bidding, it is reported that at least four video meetings commemorating the 31st anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre were infiltrated and terminated. Jin and his co-conspirators reportedly contrived false accusations, including child porn and terrorism, against Zoom users in the United States.

WATCH: Here’s What America’s Largest Ammo Manufacturer Has to Say About the Shortage

/0 Comments/in , , /by

. . .Rumors have swirled through the Second Amendment community, particularly online, about Vista Outdoors, the parent company of Federal, Remington, CCI, and Speer Ammunition. Some have said that Vista Outdoors has ceased manufacturing ammo all together while others have insisted the company is picking and choosing who to sell ammo to.

Vista Outdoors’ President of Ammunition, Jason Vanderbrink, decided to address – and squash – the rumors once and for all.

“I am tired of all the hate mail. I am tired of people showing up at our factories. I’m tired of reading the misinformation out on the Internet right now about us not trying to service the demand that we’re experiencing,” Vanderbrink explained. “… After a year like right now, when we’ve hired hundreds of employees to support American manufacturing jobs, all I hear is that we’re not making ammunition.”

The company president broke down the realities of the shortage, something he calls “basic economics.”

“Seven million new shooters since March, times two boxes [50 rounds per box], which is a conservative estimate, is 700 million new rounds of ammunition our factories have to help produce,” he explained. “That is impossible to do in nine months.” (Read more from “Here’s What America’s Largest Ammo Manufacturer Has to Say About the Shortage” HERE)

Marine Corps Vet Faces Decades in Prison for Standing up to COVID Fascism

/0 Comments/in , , /by

In yet another sad example of the COVID insanity gripping the nation, the owner of the Self Made Training Facility franchises in Arizona, Jeff Mahaffey – a decorated Marine Corps veteran – has received daily fines and criminal charges for operating his gym outside of the government mandates and CDC guidelines. In early spring when the original shutdowns began, Jeff did close in adherence with the statewide stay at home orders. However, due to lack of statistics and scientific backing for the closures, his doors were reopened in May when that original order expired. But on June 30th, a second round of closures was announced.

This second closure edict specifically targeted restaurants, bars, movie theaters, and gyms. Nevertheless, Jeff made the courageous decision to keep his facilities open for the countless independent contractors and their clients who utilize his buildings. Soon thereafter, he started receiving daily class 1 misdemeanor charges issued by Scottsdale Police Department. These charges carry a max penalty of $2,500 and 6 months in prison – each.

Not only this, the city of Scottsdale also began using intimidation tactics to try and keep Jeff’s doors closed. The local government began placing squad cars in the parking lot of the Scottsdale facility and even followed members who were leaving the facility. Invariably, these members would be stopped for minor traffic infractions. When confronted, the conversation always immediately turned to the gym in place of the reason for traffic stop.

Come early August, gyms were given the opportunity to reapply to reopen. However, in doing so, the owners had to agree to enforce a set of rules and restrictions set forth by the state. The restrictions and penalties were vague and seemed to allow the state to permanently shut down businesses if found in violation of the ambiguous guidelines. Given this, and coupled with the fact that the Self Made Training Facility had not closed back down to begin with, Jeff did not submit an application.

A few months went by with little to no issues. However, on November 25th, the Arizona Department of Health entered the facility without permission and, without any inspections, left a notice of immediate closure on the front desk and taped one to the front door. The state inspector then left without saying much of anything.
On the state’s notice, it stated the reason for closure was that the business had failed to submit an application to reopen. In other words, Jeff would essentially have to ask permission from the government to operate his business. Following this notice, multiple new charges were filed against Jeff. Local courts issued a court date but failed to provide any notice to Jeff. Once the unserved court date was predictably missed, the court then issued a warrant for his arrest.

But instead of arresting Jeff, local authorities attempted to mediate. In mediation it was stated that if Jeff wanted his contempt of court charge (for missing the hearing he didn’t know about) dropped, he would have to waive all rights to trespass local and state government officials from his businesses. In other words, he would have to grant an unlimited license to government agents to come and go as they pleased from his property. Of course, this “solution” was quickly turned down. An agreement was met to keep Jeff out of jail for the time being, however. In this agreement, local authorities filed a permanent injunction stating that as long as Jeff enforced CDC mask guidelines and was willing to work with the Arizona Department of Health Services, they would not pursue the contempt of court charge at this given time. So, the fight wages on.

Obviously, this fight is much more than just one man trying to keep his business open. It is a fight for the soul of our nation and the Constitution on which it was founded. There are small businesses nationwide standing up to this tyranny, but they cannot stand alone.

Patriot Jeff Mahaffey will keep fighting, but he needs support to stand up in the courts. If you would like to help, please visit Fundraiser by Bruno Dominianni : Jeff Mahaffey Self Made Family Legal Fund (gofundme.com) to donate.

Michael Flynn Pitches a Very Radical Way of Re-Running the 2020 Election; ‘Fraud Happened’: Senator Says the Election in ‘Many Ways Was Stolen’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Townhall. There should be a military coup in order to re-do the 2020 election. That’s the pitch former Gen. Michael Flynn offered on Newsmax recently, which should send liberals into a stage 10 meltdown…(via The Hill):

Former Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn on Thursday said that President Trump could deploy the military to “rerun” the 2020 election.

During an appearance on Newsmax’s “Greg Kelly Reports,” Flynn was asked about the actions the president could take to undo the results of the election.

After Flynn suggested that the president could seize every voting machine across the country, he then suggested deploying the military in swing states that the president lost to President-elect Joe Biden.

“He could order, within the swing states if he wanted to, he could take military capabilities and basically rerun an election each in those states,” Flynn said.

‘Fraud Happened’: Sen. Rand Paul Says the Election in ‘Many Ways Was Stolen’

By Breitbart. Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) on Wednesday, during a Senate hearing on election integrity, said he believed that the 2020 presidential election “in many ways was stolen” and that “fraud happened.”

“We can’t just say it didn’t happen. We can’t just say 4,000 people voted in Nevada that were noncitizens and we’re just going to ignore it, we’re going to sweep it under the rug and say oh, the courts have decided the facts. The courts have not decided the facts. The courts never looked at the facts,” he said.

“The courts don’t like elections. They’ve stayed out of it by finding an excuse, standing or otherwise, to stay out of it. But the fraud happened. The election in many ways was stolen. And the only way it will be fixed is by, in the future, reinforcing the laws,” he said.

Paul said courts have been historically reticent to get involved with elections and look at fraud, but he hoped they would look at the question of whether non-legislators, such as secretaries of state, can change state election laws without the approval of the legislature.

“This happened in many, many states. Probably two dozen states decided to accept ballots after the election. Two dozen states decided they could mail out applications or mail out ballots, all without the will of the legislature,” he said. (Read more from “‘Fraud Happened’: Sen. Rand Paul Says the Election in ‘Many Ways Was Stolen’” HERE)

COVID Vaccine Warning: No Breastfeeding, Avoid Pregnancy for 2 Months, Unknown Fertility Impacts; You Can’t Sue if You Have Severe COVID Vaccine Side Effects

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Life Site News. Government produced safety instructions for a new coronavirus vaccine indicate that it should not be used by pregnant or breast-feeding mothers and children. In addition, they state that it is unknown what effect the COVID-19 mRNA vaccine will have on fertility.

The ten-page “Reg 174 Information for UK Healthcare Professionals” describes the vaccine, how it is to be stored, diluted, and administered, and the trial studies carried out to test it. To be effective, the vaccine is supposed to be administered twice. In a section called “Fertility, pregnancy and lactation,” the guide says there is “no or limited data” on the vaccine. Therefore, it is not recommending its use for pregnant women. . .

The guide also advises that women should avoid becoming pregnant for the first two months after their Covid-19 shots. . .

Because it is still unknown whether or not the vaccine can be transmitted to a breast-feeding infant through his or her mother’s milk, the instructions state that “a risk to the newborns/infants cannot be excluded.” Therefore, the guide specifies that the vaccine “should not be used during breast-feeding.” (Read more from “COVID Vaccine Warning: No Breastfeeding, Avoid Pregnancy for 2 Months, Unknown Fertility Impacts” HERE)

You Can’t Sue if You Have Severe COVID Vaccine Side Effects

By CNBC. If you experience severe side effects after getting a Covid vaccine, lawyers tell CNBC there is basically no one to blame in a U.S. court of law.

The federal government has granted companies like Pfizer and Moderna immunity from liability if something unintentionally goes wrong with their vaccines.

“It is very rare for a blanket immunity law to be passed,” said Rogge Dunn, a Dallas labor and employment attorney. “Pharmaceutical companies typically aren’t offered much liability protection under the law.“

You also can’t sue the Food and Drug Administration for authorizing a vaccine for emergency use, nor can you hold your employer accountable if they mandate inoculation as a condition of employment. (Read more from “You Can’t Sue if You Have Severe COVID Vaccine Side Effects” HERE)

Congress to Receive First Batch of COVID-19 Vaccines, but Uncertainty Lingers

By Politico. Top congressional leaders will receive the coronavirus vaccine in the coming days with dozens of lawmakers planning to quickly follow suit — an effort designed to maintain a continuity of government while also instilling public confidence in the shot.

The limited batch of doses, which is expected to soon arrive in the House and Senate and was first reported by POLITICO, marks a major development for lawmakers and frontline workers in a Capitol complex that has battled dozens of cases this year.

But the sudden announcement of vaccines stunned many lawmakers who had been kept in the dark about whether they would get doses at all. Now, members are preparing for their first doses in what’s expected to be the final week in session of the 116th Congress.

WATCH: Trump Thanks God for Sending Jesus to ‘Redeem the World’ in Powerful Christmas Message That’s Gone Viral

/1 Comment/in , , /by

While U.S. President Donald Trump’s Christmas message this year made during the Dec. 3 National Christmas Tree lighting ceremony at the White House did not capture mainstream media attention, it continues to reverberate with Christians around the world.

At a time when some politicians would deem it politically incorrect to say “Merry Christmas” in public and would certainly not dare to speak about Jesus in the public square, Trump not only boldly wished Americans a “very, very Merry Christmas,” he went on to speak about the true meaning of Christmas in eloquent words that many Christians would be hard-pressed to hear from the pulpit.

Here’s what Trump said:

Alaska Health Care Worker Hospitalized After Receiving COVID-19 Vaccine; State to Consider ‘Historical Injustice’ in Setting Vaccine Distribution Order

/1 Comment/in , , /by

By NY Times. A health care worker in Alaska had a serious allergic reaction after getting Pfizer’s coronavirus vaccine on Tuesday, symptoms that emerged within minutes and required an overnight hospital stay.

The middle-aged worker had no history of allergies, but had an anaphylactic reaction that began 10 minutes after receiving the vaccine at Bartlett Regional Hospital in Juneau, Alaska, a hospital official said. She experienced a rash over her face and torso, shortness of breath and an elevated heart rate.

Dr. Lindy Jones, the hospital’s emergency department medical director, said the worker was first given a shot of epinephrine, a standard treatment for severe allergic reactions. Her symptoms subsided but then re-emerged, and she was treated with steroids and an epinephrine drip. (Read more from “Alaska Health Care Worker Hospitalized After Receiving COVID-19 Vaccine” HERE)

State to Consider ‘Historical Injustice’ in Setting Vaccine Distribution Order

By Washington Examiner. California may include “historical injustice” as a factor in determining the distribution of coronavirus vaccines, a sign of social justice considerations entering the public health effort.

The idea was first introduced to California’s Community Vaccine Advisory Committee on Nov. 25 by Virginia Hedrick, according to NPR.

Hedrick is executive director of the California Consortium for Urban Indian Health. A member of the Yurok Tribe, she pointed out that Native Americans are 4 times more likely to be hospitalized for COVID-19 and twice as likely to die from it than white people.

She said it is important to consider that Native Americans suffered high rates of illness and death from diseases such as measles and smallpox when the first European settlers arrived here. (Read more from “State to Consider ‘Historical Injustice’ in Setting Vaccine Distribution Order” HERE)

New COVID Study Reveals When Wearing a Mask Is Actually a Bad Idea

/1 Comment/in , , /by

Wearing a used mask could be more dangerous than not wearing one at all when it comes to warding off COVID-19, a new study has found.

A new three-layer surgical mask is 65 percent efficient in filtering particles in the air — but when used, that number drops to 25 percent, according to the study published Tuesday in the Physics of Fluids.

Researchers from the University of Massachusetts Lowell and California Baptist University say that masks slow down airflow, making people more susceptible to breathing in particles — and a dirty face mask can’t effectively filter out the tiniest of droplets.

“It is natural to think that wearing a mask, no matter new or old, should always be better than nothing,” said author Jinxiang Xi.

“Our results show that this belief is only true for particles larger than 5 micrometers, but not for fine particles smaller than 2.5 micrometers.” (Read more from “New COVID Study Reveals When Wearing a Mask Is Actually a Bad Idea” HERE)
