The grieving wife of a leading Florida doctor has told DailyMail.com how her ‘perfect’ husband died from a mystery blood disorder - just days after getting the Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine. Heidi Neckelmann says obstetrician Gregory Michael, 56 - her ‘best friend’ and partner of 28 years – was active, healthy and had no pre-existing conditions before getting the jab on December 18.

Distraught Heidi, 58, thinks the groundbreaking...

Business Insider first reported that Pence would not back the move, citing advisers to the vice president. Following the violent riots at the Capitol building Wednesday, a number of Republican and Democratic lawmakers urged Pence to invoke the 25th Amendment.

To dream the impossible dream To fight the unbeatable foe To bear with unbearable sorrow To run where the brave dare not go

Forgive me for not remembering where I heard it today but it’s being said that when all the totals are added up the Democrats and their outside affiliates spent nearly 11 billion dollars to “defeat” Donald in November add to that the 90 plus percent negative media coverage since he’s been in office Russia,Ukraine,the riots last summer, half his party openly working against him for China interests....and considering he “lost” by less then 44,000 votes in three states that is amazing no wonder despite saying he wanted peaceful protests they want this guy tarred and feathered....If I where him Id...

Linked is my video of a portion of the hundreds of thousands of America-loving Patriots moving from the Whitehouse to the Capitol on 1/6/2021. They are not a violent mob! I recorded for about an hour from this one location on Constitution Ave near 15th NW. This is shown at double speed. As you can see from the video, my shirt caught some attention. It said: "God is on His throne. Jesus is Lord!"

The Infowars viral video, 4 MILLION views, hasn’t aged well. It was never even plausible, now it’s laughable. But also show the disinformation & grifting underlying the Jan 6 events Video...

Texas Senator Ted Cruz is one of the few politicians willing to directly take on New York Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and it happened again on Thursday morning.It began when Cruz released a statement about the riot at the Capitol early Thursday morning. Cruz once again made his position clear that the destruction that happened was a major criminal act and that the transition of power from Trump to Biden will be peaceful.“The attack at the Capitol was a despicable act of terrorism and a shocking assault on our democratic system,” he tweeted while posting his full statement in images below....

Since Trump won the convention, The Establishment for the last 4 plus years as been eyeing winning the GOP Chair more than any and all elections combined. Losing the Convention is bigger than losing any election. The winner of the DNC or RNC Convention gets to pick the chair of their political party and that person get to pick the people at the top... This is the power struggle the Establishment is actually fighting for. If Trump does not stay in power I believe there will be an election for that chair. We do not need the Establishment capturing the...

Former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley on Thursday hailed the "extraordinary gains" for the United States during President Trump’s time in office and warned Republicans not to "shy away" from them -- while at the same time calling his post-Election Day conduct "deeply disappointing.""President Trump has not always chosen the right words. He was wrong with his words in Charlottesville, and I told him so at the time," she told a Republican National Committee dinner in Florida. "He was badly wrong with his words yesterday. And it wasn’t just his words. His actions since Election Day will be judged harshly by...

Cardinal Gregory Suggests Trump Bears ‘Some Responsibility’ for Inciting D.C. ViolenceThe archbishop of Washington, DC, Cardinal Wilton Gregory, issued a statement Wednesday suggesting that some of the blame for the violence in the nation’s Capitol falls on the shoulders of President Trump.“The divisive tone that has recently so dominated our national conversations must change,” Cardinal Gregory said, in apparent reference to Trump. “Those who resort to inflammatory rhetoric must accept some responsibility for inciting the increasing violence in our nation.”Cardinal Gregory, the first black American cardinal, has been an outspoken critic of Trump, accusing him of racism and divisiveness.“I fear...

A planned book by Sen. Josh Hawley, who objected to President-elect Joe Biden’s win and backed baseless claims that the election was stolen, has been canceled by its publisher in the wake of the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol by a mob of pro-Trump supporters, a decision the Missouri Republican called “Orwellian” and vowed to fight in court. In a statement Thursday, Simon & Schuster announced that “After witnessing the disturbing, deadly insurrection that took place on Wednesday in Washington, D.C, Simon & Schuster has decided to cancel publication of Senator Josh Hawley’s forthcoming book, ‘The Tyranny of Big Tech.’...

The family of Elaine Chao, the transportation secretary and wife of Mitch McConnell, the Senate majority leader, has high-level political connections not only in the United States but also in China. That gives the family unusual status in the world’s two largest economies. Through interviews, industry filings and government documents from both countries, The New York Times found that the Chaos, and by extension Mr. McConnell, prospered as the family’s shipping company developed deeper business ties in China. Along the way, one of the company’s boosters was Ms. Chao, who now oversees efforts to promote America’s own maritime industry, which...

Given recent events showing the people that our own congress has failed to serve the people and illegally ratified electors who in seven states were illegally certified. This has placed the nation under great danger and created a situation that is not tenable. The left and globalists are intent on ruling with an iron fist that appears will equal that of the Soviet Union, Nazi Germany, Mao China, etc. Some have suggested a violent overthrow. However, there are several problems with that. First and foremost the cost in human life will be great. Hundreds of thousands if not millions will...

COLLEGE PARK, Md. (AP) - The storming of the U.S. Capitol is a jarring but natural product of years of violence and hateful rhetoric stoked by disinformation and conspiracy theories, experts on far-right extremism said as they pored over images of Wednesday’s riot. Members of far-right groups, including the violent Proud Boys, joined the crowds that formed in Washington to cheer on President Donald Trump as he urged them to protest Congress’ counting of Electoral College votes confirming President-elect Joe Biden’s win. Then they headed to the Capitol. Members of smaller white supremacist and neo-Nazi groups also were spotted in...

And so they did it. With mounds and mounds of evidence in plain sight that the 2020 election was stolen, Congress went ahead and certified it anyway. Hey, what’s a little election thievery between friends. Eight Pennsylvania Republican Congressman outlined the problems with the Pennsylvania election. The problems, they said, were these: Accepting ballots past 8:00 p.m. on Election Day.Not properly requiring signatures to match those on mail-in ballots or requiring dates.Meanwhile, the matching of signatures was required at a polling site.Authorizing the curing of mail-in ballots with less than a 24-hour notice.Only some counties were informed and adhered to...

Michigan drivers and taxpayers have been complaining about road and highway conditions for years. But the solutions policymakers have recently proposed ranged from the politically impossible, like raising the gas tax 45 cents per gallon, to financially-risky short-term fixes like borrowing billions in bonds to pay for teacher pension contributions so that money could be shifted to funding for roads. But it seems like Michigan lawmakers may be warming up to a long-term, sustainable, users-pay solution to achieving better roads: tolling. Lansing's interest in tolling has gone back decades but this year the state Legislature and Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's administration...

An attorney representing President Trump in one of his dozens of lawsuits challenging the 2020 election moved to withdraw from the case on Thursday, telling a federal court that the president used him to "perpetrate a crime." Philadelphia-based attorney Jerome Marcus asked the court to allow him to withdraw, citing concerns over Pennsylvania's professional conduct standards for lawyers. Marcus wrote that "the client has used the lawyer's services to perpetrate a crime and the client insists upon taking action that the lawyer considers repugnant and with which the lawyer has a fundamental disagreement."

I want to get this down while it is still fresh in my mind so no responses tonight. I'll answer any questions, as I can, tomorrow. People need to hear what happened to keep abreast of the media narrative that is being formulated. Drove into D. C. and got into town around 4:30 PM. Since I have never been to DC I did the usual tourist thing of walking around and taking pictures of various historical monuments. I even scouted out the are around the National Christmas Tree where the main event was supposed to take place. I waved at...
