LONDON (Reuters) - Britain’s government will not force people to have vaccinations against COVID-19, Prime Minister Boris Johnson said on Monday. “There will be no compulsory vaccination. That’s not the way we do things in this country,” Johnson told a news conference. “We think it (vaccination) is a good idea, and you know I totally reject the propaganda of the anti-vaxxers, they are wrong,” he said. “Everybody should get a vaccine as soon as it is available.”

After weeks of delay, the head of the General Services Administration informed President-elect Joe Biden on Monday that the official governmental transition process has been approved. GSA Administrator Emily Murphy said in a letter that Biden, whom she referred to as "the apparent president-elect," is now able to access millions of dollars in federal funds and other resources to begin his transition to power. In her letter, Murphy also denied that she had been under pressure from the White House to delay the process. “I have dedicated much of my adult life to public service, and I have always strived...

Chicago, IL – An overly-perky employee of Family Planning Associates Medical Group in Chicago, Illinois, called 911 for help with a woman who was suffering from heavy bleeding after an abortion on July 8, 2020. The audio recording and Computer Aided Dispatch printout, which was provided to Operation Rescue by the Pro-Life Action League, showed that the caller attempted to downplay the potentially life-threatening emergency by indicating that the woman needed to be hospitalized for “observation” only. What seemed like a routine call for a common, but serious, abortion complication took on a bizarre tone due to the over-the-top cheerfulness...

For Americans, the crux of gun control laws has been how to disarm dangerous individuals without disarming the public at large. Ever-present in this quest is the question of how the perception of danger should impact guaranteed freedoms protected within the Bill of Rights. Not only is such a balancing act difficult as-is, but there are also two additional factors that make it even more challenging: America’s federal government is constitutionally bound by the Second Amendment, and politicians notoriously take advantage of tragedies to pass irrational laws when emotions are at their highest. As President Obama’s former Chief of Staff,...

A mere 3% of voters for President Donald Trump think President-elect Joe Biden won the 2020 election, while 73% think the incumbent was the victor, according to a CNBC/Change Research poll.

Today marks 8 years since Jordan Davis, a 17-year-old high school student was murdered by Michael David Dunn, a 45-year-old software developer, following an argument over loud music played by Davis and his three friends. Dunn shot and killed Jordan on November 23, 2012, at a Gate Petroleum gas station in Jacksonville, Florida.

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) came to the defense of Georgia Senate candidate Raphael Warnock following resurfaced comments in which he said, “nobody can serve God and the military.” Omar said in a Twitter post that Warnock was quoting biblical Scripture from “Mathews 6:24.” “The lies and smears of the GOP have no boundaries, but this is a disgrace and shameful,” she wrote. The Washington Free Beacon reported that in 2011, Warnock preached that Americans cannot serve God while also serving in the U.S. military. “America, nobody can serve God and the military,” the video shows the Georgia Democrat saying. “You...

Fox News’ favorability has tumbled among Republicans since Election Day, as the cable news network has faced a steady drumbeat of criticism from President Donald Trump. From late December 2019 through Nov. 2, 67 percent of U.S. adults who identify as Republican viewed Fox News favorably, according to Morning Consult’s Brand Intelligence, which tracks consumer attitudes of thousands of brands, while roughly 16 percent had an unfavorable view of the cable channel. Then came election night, when Fox News was the first news organization to project a Trump loss in the battleground state of Arizona. The announcement reportedly enraged the...

A Nebraska bill banning dismemberment abortions was passed by the legislature earlier this year. Now, with no legal challenges against it, it has officially taken effect. The Omaha World-Herald reported that the law took effect last week. This means that dilation and evacuation, or D&E, abortions are now illegal in the state of Nebraska. Often committed in the second trimester, a D&E is a violent procedure that takes several days to complete, and results in the dismemberment of a child who is often still alive. On the first day, the abortionist inserts laminaria into the mother’s cervix to begin dilation....

by Laurie AzgardAfter pressure given to the clerk’s office, they have finally filed the “notice of appeal” for Brian D. Hill [USWGO alternative news] to challenge U.S. district court Judge Thomas David Schroeder also called Adolf Schroeder, his decision to throw out all frauds upon the court as “meritless” and “frivolous”. If that were even the case here, Brian would have and should have faced contempt of court and be sanctioned for defrauding the court if that were even the case. That is not the case here, they just simply don’t want to hold any evidentiary hearings over Brian’s fraud...

...To begin with, as a nation, we have decided to treat this virus in the hospital much more than any other virus. Congress has thrown billions of dollars at the hospitals, and they receive higher reimbursement rates for treating COVID-19 patients. However, many of the cases are not necessarily clinical level. Undoubtedly, in the worst cases, patients are critically ill, but the panic surrounding this virus creates a self-fulfilling prophecy of more people coming to the ER and being admitted. The financial incentives for hospitals certainly exacerbate this trend. One particular change in policy that might be responsible for some...

Here are nine reasons why Congress should remove the authorization to acquire the F-15EX from the 2021 National Defense Authorization Act. 1. Acquisition cost. In fiscal year 2022, the Air Force will pay $77.9 million for each fully equipped and ready-for-combat F-35A it acquires. Each F-15EX, on the other hand, will cost $87.7 million — but that’s for an airshow capability. If the Air Force wants to fly it in combat, then each jet needs a $12.2 million electronic countermeasures system known as the Eagle Passive Active Warning Survivability system, or EPAWSS, and a $900,000 targeting pod. This brings the...

Although we don’t yet know the winners of some House races, we can already look ahead to the 2022 midterms and see a fairly straightforward path for the GOP to capture the House. Midterm elections historically go well for the party that’s not in the White House, and the out-of-power party is especially likely to do well in the House, since every seat is up for election (the Senate is a more complicated story). Since the end of World War II, the presidential party has lost an average of 27 House seats in midterm elections, as the chart below shows....
