Tiny snippet of a long interview We're administering the largest application of a biological product with the greatest amount of morbidity and mortality in the history of our country. We are at over 5,000 deaths as you know. I think 15,000 hospitalizations. In the EU it's over 10,000 deaths. We are working with the Center for Medicade Services, the CMS data, and we have a pretty good lead that the real number is 10 fold. We knew from data from Harvard in 2016 that the Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting system only reports about 10% of what's really going on so...

A Missouri middle school teacher is no longer employed by Springfield Public Schools after a video surfaced showing her berating a male student as a "straight jerk," "butthead," and "weasel," apparently over his LBGTQ objection, the Springfield News-Leader reported. Cellphone video of the May 27 incident begins with the unnamed teacher angrily addressing the student, apparently after he interpreted the unicorn cupcakes she brought to the Pershing Middle School classroom for the last day of class as pro-LBGTQ, the paper said. Indeed, the LGBTQ community has adopted the mythical animal as a symbol of sorts in recent years. The clip...

Gas was deliberately released from a nuclear power plant in southern China as operators work to fix an issue at the facility, its French part-owner said Monday following a US media report of a potential leak. CNN said the US government is assessing a report of a leak at the Taishan Nuclear Power Plant in populous Guangdong province after Framatome, a French firm that partly owns it, warned of an "imminent radiological threat". EDF, the majority owner of Framatome, said the plant's number one reactor experienced a build-up of noble gases in its primary circuit, which is part of the...

Until now men who have sex with men had to wait three months before donating. From Monday, gay men in sexually active, monogamous relationships can donate for the first time. Anyone who has had anal sex with a new or multiple partners in the past three months will have to wait three months to donate - regardless of their gender. It follows a review by the Fair (For the Assessment of Individualised Risk) steering group, which concluded switching to an individualised, gender-neutral approach was fairer and maintained the safety of the blood supply. The review's recommendations are to be implemented...

President Joe Biden attended a NATO Summit on Monday, praising the historic alliance with European nations as “essential” for the United States of America. “It’s very good for America. It’s essential for America,” said Biden during a meeting with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg in Brussels.

There were more hugs than usual Friday morning at the Wyoming State Capitol. But these weren’t just any old hugs; they were hand-delivered by 11-year-old and Louisiana native Rosalyn Baldwin, who is traveling across the county to show her support for local law enforcement agencies. Her goal is simple – to spread love through hugs with law enforcement in all 50 states – but it clearly meant a lot to the Laramie County Sheriff’s Office, the Cheyenne Police Department, the Pine Bluffs Police Department, Wyoming Highway Patrol and the Wyoming State Parks law enforcement officers Friday morning.

In a discovery that challenges long-held dogma in biology, researchers show that mammalian cells can convert RNA sequences back into DNA, a feat more common in viruses than eukaryotic cells. Cells contain machinery that duplicates DNA into a new set that goes into a newly formed cell. That same class of machines, called polymerases, also build RNA messages, which are like notes copied from the central DNA repository of recipes, so they can be read more efficiently into proteins. But polymerases were thought to only work in one direction DNA into DNA or RNA. This prevents RNA messages from being...

The news about a potential link between the Covid-19 vaccine and a cardiac ailment in young people may be striking fear in the hearts of some parents. But pediatric cardiologists have a message for these parents: Covid-19 should scare you more — a whole lot more — than the vaccine. And these doctors should know. They’ve treated young patients who’ve contracted this heart ailment after vaccination — it’s called myocarditis, or inflammation of the heart muscle — and they’ve also treated young patients who’ve had Covid-19. There simply is no comparison between the two, they say.

Plaque with iron (l) and copper (r, in pink) (Everett, et al., Science Advances, 2021) ================================================================================ Set aside every scrap of iron inside a human body and you might have enough to fashion a nail or two. As for copper, you'd be lucky to extract just enough to make a small earring. Scarce as they are, these two metals are necessary for our survival, playing essential roles in human growth and metabolism. But one place we wouldn't expect to find either is clumped inside our brain cells. However, for people with the neurodegenerative disorder Alzheimer's disease, something seems to be...

Last Christmas morning, I patted my bed, inviting my newly adopted beagle, Bonnie, to jump up and cuddle. My boyfriend, still under the covers, reached out to pet her soft little head, which was now wedged between us. I turned away to grab my phone, and it happened: a guttural bark, followed by a human scream. I whipped around to see my boyfriend’s hand covered in blood. Before I could figure out how to help him, he was out the door on his way to urgent care. It was Bonnie’s second bite in the week since I’d adopted her. Like...

You no doubt spent your weekend detached from the news. Beers may have been crushed. Meat may have been grilled. Little League playoffs may have taught your kid that it really DOES matter who wins or loses. Sounds like a relaxing time. Besides, all you really missed in the news was President Joe Biden looking like a doddering old coot on the world stage. The G7 was this weekend. Our top seven world leaders (and idiots dressed as Pikachu) met in England to discuss a year's worth of globalist goals. Joe Biden, a man who got more votes for president...

One cannot be certain what in the heck it is that's in Joe Biden's head, but it sure isn't a brain. Over the last few weeks or so Biden has identified several things as the single biggest threat to the United States and they're all different. Now you might think it's Russia, but you'd be wrong. You might think that it's China, but you'd be wrong. According to Biden the single greatest threat to the country is - envelope please- voter integrity laws! Democracy is literally in "peril." Seriously. President Joe Biden warned Americans on Memorial Day Monday that democracy...

American farmers are asleep as a thief strips machinery, barn, bins, and fields of all valuables—and then returns for more. China has breached the inner walls of the U.S. agriculture industry in what has arguably been the most expansive heist in farming history, and is currently attempting to steal or hack every conceivable facet of U.S. agriculture technology. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) openly has declared its intent to dominate high-tech industries across the world, including agriculture, by 2025. Undergirding its technological superiority effort, China has unabashed plans for a solo climb to the top rung of the global power...

Novavax (NASDAQ:NVAX) shares rose more than 6% in Monday’s premarket trading after the company said a phase-three trial had found its two-dose COVID-19 vaccine to be 90.4% effective.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is urging former Attorneys General William Barr and Jeff Sessions to testify before Congress on reports that former President Donald Trump’s Justice Department seized records from at least two Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee. “What the administration did, the Justice Department, under the leadership of the former president goes even beyond Richard Nixon,” Pelosi said during an appearance on CNN’s “State of the Union” Sunday. She added, “Richard Nixon had an enemies list. This is about undermining the rule of law and for this attorneys general … to say that they didn’t know anything...

During an interview with former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Fox News host Chris Wallace attempted to excuse the inaction of the Biden administration over the Wuhan lab leak by suggesting Trump and Pompeo did nothing for a year.“You also criticized President [Joe] Biden for not pushing hard enough on China to look for the origins of the coronavirus,” Wallace charged, adding “But I want to again go back to your administration and the record there.”Wallace continued, “President Trump and his team, including you, had almost a year after the COVID-19 first came on the scene to really press Beijing...

The New York Times appeared to celebrate a liberal think tank tied to leftist billionaire George Soros for spreading its influence in Washington, D.C. The Times propagated how Data for Progress, a pro-Green New Deal and Medicare-for-All group, “has grown comfortable with mainstream influence.” The group is a project of the dark money group Tides Advocacy, The story, headlined “Born on the Left, Data for Progress Comes of Age in Biden’s Washington,” championed how “President Biden mentions it in private calls. The White House reads its work. And Senator Chuck Schumer, the majority leader, teams up with its leaders for...

Good Morning/ Afternoon, WELCOME TO THE NEXT GENERATION of conservative talk radio!

To say Kamala Harris’ avoidance of the southern border of the United States is awkward is as obvious as Joe Biden’s embarrassing representation of the United States at the G7 Summit. World leaders and journalists literally laughed at Biden on multiple occasions just as surely as people cringe whenever Harris tries to deflect about her border avoidance.There seems to be a simple solution. She can go to the border. She’s the Vice President of the United States of America, which means she has time to do whatever she wants and the resources to make it happen. At this point it’s...
