It’s just the flu, bro. https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMp2020926 The above link shows medical industrial complex is beginning their work to make the Coronavirus vaccine mandatory. The thought of a mandatory Coronavirus vaccine makes me want to use very foul language. I would even rather economy killing tax increases than a mandatory Coronavirus vaccine. I come from a socialized medicine country. It was a year wait for an MRI for humans but for animals, which have a private system, it was same day. A government that works hard to protect and care for its citizen’s health, as it is doing with Coronavirus lockdowns,...

A third-party candidate in South Carolina’s Senate race is dropping out and endorsing Sen. Lindsey Graham, providing the Republican incumbent with a boost as he faces an unexpectedly strong Democratic challenger. Bill Bledsoe, who was the Constitution Party’s candidate in the Palmetto State, said Thursday he is dropping out to back Graham, specifically citing the senator’s efforts as chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee to usher President Trump's judicial nominees to federal courts across the country. “This is the most important election in my lifetime. I appreciate Senator Graham’s work helping President Trump confirm over 200 conservative judges to lifetime...

Mississippi has become the first state to lift a mask mandate. Gov. Tate Reeves announced the reversal at a news conference Wednesday, where he detailed a new executive order that also eased some social distancing restrictions on public gatherings. Masks are still required to be worn in schools and “close contact” businesses like salons and barbershops. “For the heavy hand of government to tell you that you must do something, then the underlying conditions should justify it. When we were at our peak and we were making those decisions, the numbers absolutely justified it,” Reeves said. “But because of the...

As if the Academy Awards wasn’t enough, ABC Entertainment recently announced a new set of “inclusion standards” regarding their primetime programs. It’s yet another installment of the left trying to ruin everything it touches. On September 30, ABC Executive Vice President of Development and Content Strategy Simran Sethi released a new list of standards regarding on-screen talent, creative leadership, set workers, and industry representation. She wrote broadly, “[W]e want to take this moment to evaluate systems and habits in an effort to remove barriers to access and opportunity. It’s important for us to look around the room, see who’s not...

The Louisville Metro Police Department swore in its second interim chief Thursday since protests erupted months ago in the city over the fatal shooting of Breonna Taylor during a botched drug raid. Yvette Gentry, the first woman and the third African American to lead the LMPD, took the stage and was sworn in as the new interim police chief, Louisville Courier-Journal reported. Stating what’s required under oath, she swore she'd never participated in a duel and would prosecute all gamblers in violation of state gaming laws, according to the newspaper.

Hu Xijin, editor-in-chief of China's state-run Global Times newspaper, stated today that US President Donald Trump and the First Lady have "paid the price for his gamble to play down" the coronavirus pandemic and that this may also "negatively affect" his campaign. "President Trump and the first lady have paid the price for his gamble to play down the COVID-19. The news shows the severity of the US' pandemic situation. It will impose a negative impact on the image of Trump and the US, and may also negatively affect his re-election," ...

After months of avoiding direct contact with voters because of the pandemic, Joe Biden's campaign is about to launch door-to-door canvassing across battleground states. The sudden change in tactics comes as the campaign prepared to announce a stunning cash haul that exceeds the $364.5 million the campaign and the Democratic National Committee raised in August. That amount includes an eye-popping $24 million raised on a single day, Sept. 30 – the day after the first presidential debate, the New York Times reported. Another $10 million came during prime time the night of the debate.

After midnight on Friday, President Donald Trump announced that he and First Lady Melania have tested positive for the coronavirus. In what will likely come as a surprise to absolutely no one, Democrats showed their vile true colors as they could not contain their absolute glee over the situation. Countless verified accounts immediately began wishing death upon the president ...

Q is the result of the sacrifices and commitment of countless patriots to win back our captured country from the Deep State and achieve the transformation President Trump promised in this campaign video. President Trump has said the awakening of the public is key to this transformation.Q describes this awakening as follows: "The Great Awakening ('Freedom of Thought’), was designed and created not only as a backchannel to the public (away from the longstanding 'mind’ control of the corrupt & heavily biased media) to endure future events through transparency and regeneration of individual thought (breaking the chains of ‘group-think’), but,...

Some New Jersey residents have received ballots meant for people who have moved out of the state and for deceased voters, but some election officials say they're confident that anti-fraud measures will take care of it, according to local reports. Under federal law, anyone convicted of attempting to vote more than once could face up to 5 years in prison and a $10,000 fine. The issue arose due to a combination of factors, including the state’s distribution of unsolicited ballots and an effort to protect residents from wrongfully being purged from the voter rolls, NJ.com reported.

CNN's coverage of Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo's nursing home controversy appears to be shifting after months of virtually ignoring the subject. Cuomo has faced intense scrutiny over an order he made back in late March that forced nursing homes to accept patients who tested positive for coronavirus, despite testing deficiencies for both residents and staff. Cuomo signed an executive order on May 11 reversing the policy, stopping hospitals from sending infected patients back to nursing homes and ramping up testing for staff. During that period, roughly 6,326 coronavirus patients were admitted in New York nursing homes, according to...

President Trump’s campaign sued the city of Philadelphia on Thursday night, escalating a battle with city commissioners who have barred campaign representatives from overseeing the voter registration process ahead of the 2020 election. The Trump 2020 Campaign is asking the court to compel city officials to allow its representatives inside satellite offices to observe people as they register to vote or fill out mail-in ballots. City and state officials have argued there is no legal basis for campaign representatives to oversee procedures prior to Election Day. “Bad things are happening in Philadelphia,” the campaign’s lawsuit said. “While transparency and accountability...

Joe Biden has come out with several "bigoted, racist" remarks over his nearly five decades in public office that should dog his presidential campaign at every step, Fox News host Mark Levin said on “Hannity” on Thursday night. The "Life, Liberty & Levin" host began by stating that the mainstream media repeatedly presses President Trump over whether he supports White supremacist groups. However, Levin said, the more important question is whether Biden is "still a White supremacist?” In 1975, according to Levin, then-Sen. Biden told The Philadelphia Inquirer that the Democratic Party could “stand a liberal George Wallace. Someone who’s...

The U.S. House of Representatives passed a revised coronavirus relief bill in a largely symbolic vote on Thursday, as discussions between House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin continue. The bill has little chance of becoming law since Republicans are unlikely to bite on the $2.2 trillion price tag even though it is nearly $1 trillion less than what Democrats originally proposed in May. Pelosi acknowledged on Thursday night that she had reached no agreement in her discussions with Mnuchin, but indicated that negotiations would continue.

Tom Arnold shared Hope Hicks' personal cell phone on Twitter just hours after news broke that she'd tested positive for coronavirus. Hicks, a counselor to President Trump, tested positive for COVID-19 on Thursday, according to an administration official, and she had traveled with the president a number of times within the last few days. In a since-deleted tweet, Arnold offered fans an opportunity to speak with Hicks directly.

The news tonight of our God-blessed President and lovely First Lady testing positive for COVID (by their own admission!) is distressing. Let us draw strength, first, from these words of the warrior poet and King David: God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change, though the mountains shake in the heart of the sea; though its waters roar and foam, though the mountains tremble with its tumult. Selah There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy habitation of the Most...
