    This is a useful article because it includes 5 links to areas that are seeing reduced demand for vaxes. ...longer-term U.S. supply — which could include up to 200 million Johnson & Johnson doses once this week’s issues are ironed out — will soon start to exceed demand. In many places, it already has. Last week, the New York Times reported that a “pileup of unclaimed appointments in Mississippi” — 73,000 open slots at the time of publication — “reflects … mounting supplies” but also “exposes something more worrisome: the large number of people who are reluctant to get vaccinated.”

    Former President Trump endorsed Wyoming GOP chairman Frank Eathorne's bid for reelection in a statement Thursday, pointing to Eathorne's role in censuring Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.). Why it matters: Cheney, the 3rd ranking Republican in the House, has been a fierce critic of Trump and was one of the few Republicans who voted to impeach Trump for "incitement of insurrection" following the events of Jan. 6. Trump has said he wants to "get rid" of Republicans who backed impeachment. What they're saying: "Perhaps, most importantly, Frank has Censured the incompetent Liz Cheney, who couldn’t care less about our brave soldiers...

    This isn’t the first time serious doubts have been raised about the story. Last September, the commander of U.S. Central Command, Gen. Frank McKenzie, told NBC News, “It just has not been proved to a level of certainty that satisfies me.” He added, “I want to know, because I won’t hesitate to take action if that’s the case. I just haven’t seen it.” But despite the Trump administration’s denials (Trump called it a hoax), Democrats and the media jumped on this with both feet. MSNBC’s Maddowblog published a piece headlined “On Russian bounties, what did Trump know and when did...

    Asking someone to wear a mask is so 2020. The new tough conversation is finding out about someone's COVID-19 vaccination status. Experts say the way you ask matters, including your tone, sincerity and choice of words. But for starters, it shouldn't be a random question, says Elaine Swann, an etiquette expert and founder of the Swann School of Protocol. After all, it is personal information that usually isn't any of your business — unless you plan on letting the person into your personal space. And even then, a more private person still may not want to disclose their status. So...

    Video showing Chicago police fatally shooting 13-year-old Adam Toledo was released today, along with other materials related to the investigation.

Prosecutors had described the events in the video over the weekend as a judge set bond at...

    Through my professional career and volunteer work in prisons and anti-sex trafficking efforts, I have seen first-hand the trauma that results from homelessness, addictions, broken families, sexual assault/exploitation, pornography, and abortion. The purpose of this article is to implore the readers to explore the cultural complexities surrounding abortion, such as sex-trafficking and pornography, and how these issues enable traffickers to further exploit their victims. I also hope to encourage you to address sex-trafficking as you advocate for life and human dignity. It is critical that those of us in the pro-life community understand the multifaceted cultural contributors, both upstream and...

    An 18-second video shows what is described as three pyramid-shaped UFOs hovering over the warship USS Russell at night in July of 2019 off the San Diego coast. At one point, the pyramid-shaped crafts reportedly hovered 700 feet over the tail of the Russell. *snip* Months earlier, an FA-18 pilot reportedly used his cellphone to snap photos of three different unidentified aircrafts off the coast of Oceana in March including two UFOs dubbed the "Metalic Blimp" and "The Sphere." The unidentified aircrafts captured by the pilot in March 2019 were able to remain stationary in high winds, with no movement,...

    CONCORD, N.H. — New Hampshire's mask mandate will expire Friday and not be renewed, Gov. Chris Sununu said Thursday. Sununu said private businesses, cities and towns can still require that masks be worn, but the state will no longer mandate it. He urged Granite Staters to continue to wear masks while out in public because the virus is continuing to spread and hospitalizations are rising. "The pandemic is not over, and we are not claiming victory by any means," Sununu said. Sununu said the decision to let the mandate end was based on looking at certain data points, including deaths,...

    More than 100,000 Russian troops in assault vehicles painted with "invasion stripes" were headed to Ukraine’s border Wednesday, intensifying fears of war between the neighboring nations. The advancing force includes 1,300 battle tanks, 3,700 drones, 1,300 artillery and mortar units and 380 multiple launch rocket systems, according to documents leaked to the Daily Mirror. Tensions between the countries have been escalating following Russia’s annexation of Ukraine’s Crimea territory in 2014, an attempt by Moscow to keep NATO away from its borders. Ukraine is not a member of NATO, but support for the organization has risen in recent years, and the...

Daunte Wright was killed by a police officer while reportedly resisting arrest on an outstanding warrant for attempted robbery. That officer has been charged with manslaughter. Ashlii Babbit was killed by a police officer while illegally in the Capitol building. Tha tpolice officer not only faces no consequences, but we are not allowed to know the officer's name.

    Russian President Vladimir Putin took advantage of the Biden administration’s decision to abandon plans to send two destroyers to the Black Sea by closing off the Kerch Strait, connecting Crimea to Russia, to foreign warships until next fall. The action comes as Russia warned the US on Tuesday to stay away from the area “for their own good” after the Biden administration said it was going to send two destroyers – the USS Roosevelt and the USS Donald Cook – to the Black Sea in response to Moscow’s increasing its military presence near Ukraine. Putin will close the Kerch Strait...

    The New York Times and The Washington Post appeared to be tickled pink about the opportunity to advertise a statement signed by woke corporate America aiming to block voter ID laws across the country. The Post’s owner Jeff Bezos, who is also Amazon's CEO, also signed the statement. The leftist organization behind the statement that pretends to “stand for democracy” — Black Economic Alliance (BEA) — cheered how “over 500 companies and CEOs have united to oppose the 360+ state bills pending in 47 states that contain discriminatory voting measures.” The BEA, along with several other business figures, paid for...

    Women can do it all We can bring home the bacon and fry it up too! This is what I remember hearing as a kid growing up in the 80s. Television programs were overrun with career women working long hours who were still able to have a wonderful home made dinner ready, an impeccably clean home, and well-groomed children. Ahhh… The perfect picture of a well-balanced career and family life. This is what we women should strive for, right? But is that an accurate evaluation, or a lie sold to us by the TV and movie studios? I’m going to...
