A maskless gunman held up a restaurant in Pasadena, California but rather than emptying the cash register, the suspect demanded chicken that he had been refused because he wasn’t wearing a face covering. Enjoy the rest of 2021. According to staff at Roscoe’s House of Chicken & Waffles, the chicken heist occurred after a man was told to leave the establishment because he refused to wear a mask in accordance with Covid-19 guidelines. The enraged customer reportedly stormed out, before later returning with a gun… and his food order. Robert Gonzalez, who works at the restaurant as a cook, told...

SNIP "Everything" the Biden administration does when it comes to foreign policy will be examined as to whether it makes life "better, safer and easier for working families," National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan told reporters in a briefing to preview the President's remarks. SNIP Biden also announced his intention to increase the number of refugees admitted into the United States after years of historical lows under the Trump administration, and fulfill a campaign promise in doing so, two sources familiar with the plans told CNN. The Trump administration set a refugee cap of 15,000 for this fiscal year, the lowest...

WASHINGTON, DC- Democrats are trying to sneak through an amnesty proposal for illegal aliens into the coronavirus relief package, according to Breitbart News. Around 100 House Democrats are urging Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) to include amnesty for certain subgroups of illegals in the aid package. The Democrats led by the Congressional Hispanic Caucus are pushing for amnesty for at least five million illegal aliens who consider themselves [emphasis added] “essential workers” and who are beneficiaries of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) and Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) programs. The letter states: “As you continue to work on assembling a COVID-19...

Article Dig In Sen. Mitt Romney on Thursday proposed providing monthly payments to families with children to help them weather the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Utah Republican said the proposal would streamline existing family policies to create one universal child benefit, titled the Family Security Act. Under the proposal, the existing child tax credit would be replaced with monthly payments of $350 for children ages...

The ABC, CBS and NBC evening newscasts have now ignored news that makes former President Donald Trump’s economic policies look good even after he’s out of office. Fox Business reported that “The US economy will bounce back to its pre-pandemic size by the middle of the year without any emergency stimulus, the US Congressional Budget Office [CBO] projected Monday [February 1].” The CBO report specifically stated that if “current laws governing federal taxes and spending (as of January 12) generally remain in place and that no significant additional emergency funding or aid is provided,” the economy will continue to strengthen...

The New York Times published an essay on Tuesday detailing a range of recommendations for the Biden administration to adopt to fix the “reality crisis” and “de-radicalize” citizens, including setting up a “reality czar” and “truth commission.” The essay, penned by Times technology columnist Kevin Roose, accuses “millions of Americans” of embracing “hoaxes, lies and collective delusions” before questioning how to unite a country where these millions “have chosen to create their own version of reality.” “I worry that unless the Biden administration treats conspiracy theories and disinformation as the urgent threats they are, our parallel universes will only drift...

Pennsylvania’s top COVID-19 vaccination official on Thursday said the state has begun examining how quickly providers are getting doses into peoples’ arms and will begin to favor those that do better. “We’re narrowing in on a strategy that will allocate this vaccine to providers that really rewards those that can do it efficiently, do it effectively, meaning getting that second dose in there, and then report back to us as quickly as possible so we can get an understanding of the data,” said Alison Beam, Pennsylvania’s acting secretary of health. Beam testified before a Republican-led state Senate committee on Thursday,...

Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro accused Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg of “abusive and dictatorial” behavior after Facebook censored Maduro’s promotion of an unproven coronavirus treatment known as Carvativir, an antiviral drug which Maduro refers to as “miracle drops.” Facebook on January 31 prevented Maduro’s government from uploading videos in which Maduro discusses Carvativir’s alleged ability to treat symptoms of the Chinese coronavirus. No studies have found the “miracle drops” have any significant impact on fighting the Chinese coronavirus and Carvativir is not in use in treating the pathogen anywhere else in the world. “Who is in charge in Venezuela, the owner...

New York’s Democrat Gov. Andrew Cuomo is the poster child for the most macabre chutzpah we have ever seen. He mismanaged his state’s Wuhan China virus pandemic to the point of herding COVID-19 patients into nursing homes where even he admits it spread like a wildfire through dry grass. Yet he blames everyone but himself for his state’s carnage, has written a book bizarrely claiming to be his state’s savior, and he’s even won an Emmy for his daily bloviating press conferences. It should have been for best performance in a horror show. Now we know the carnage and death...

On Wednesday Dr, Anthony Fauci said that fans should avoid Super Bowl parties to prevent spreading the coronavirus. On Thursday, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell says he agrees with him.

Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced Friday that indoor dining can resume in New York City on Valentine’s Day, despite nearly every coronavirus metric being worse than it was when he banned indoor dining in the first place. When Cuomo announced Dec. 11 that indoor dining would be banned in New York City, the 7-day average of coronavirus cases per 100,000 people in the city was 40.2, according to data from the New York Times. When he announced Jan. 29 that indoor dining could resume, that number was 66.1 – 64% higher than the average per-capita case counts in...

Reagan.com email accounts seem to be down. Anyone else having this problem?

Democratic state lawmakers announced new bills Wednesday that would prohibit Confederate monuments across Georgia and put Stone Mountain Park — and its massive carving honoring rebel leaders — directly in the crosshairs.

In November, as fall was fading, Matt Binnicker began to hunker down for a hard winter. The coronavirus had already infected an estimated 13 million people nationwide, and his team at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, was now peering over the precipice of flu season, when every coughing, feverish patient would need not one diagnostic test, but two. Determined to stay one step ahead, Binnicker’s lab had worked furiously to develop its own influenza test in order to amp up capacity. On December 1, the team began screening all patients with respiratory symptoms for both viruses. In the two...

Novavax (NASDAQ: NVAX) shares climbed 2,700% last year as investors bet on the biotech company's investigational coronavirus vaccine. But the share price's story doesn't end there. Last week, the stock soared nearly 65% in just one trading session. What prompted such a jump? Novavax said its vaccine candidate was effective against the U.K. and South African strains of the virus in clinical trials. This was welcome news given one of the biggest worries these days -- that currently available vaccines won't hold up against these new strains. The company also reported phase 3 efficacy data concerning the older version of...
