Former President Trump urged all Americans to get the coronavirus vaccine in a Fox News exclusive interview on Tuesday, touting its efficacy as both "a safe vaccine" and "something that works."

(CNN) - Arizona's Senate held a Thursday briefing on the ongoing Republican-initiated "audit" of the 2020 election in Maricopa County, where Joe Biden outperformed Donald Trump by enough of a margin to win the state. The review is being conducted by Cyber Ninjas, a cybersecurity firm that has no experience in election auditing. And the company's chief executive officer, Doug Logan, made some Thursday claims that were immediately called into question by the county and independent experts. Logan said that door-to-door questioning of Maricopa County voters is the "one way" the auditors could determine whether what they are seeing in...

So now @Marvel's latest attempt to sell comic books makes Captain America turn against US forces and side with the communists during the Vietnam War? In Fantastic Four: Life Story #2, written by Mark Russell with art by Sean Izaakse and colors by Nolan Woodard, Captain America attacks American soldiers in an effort to free communist prisoners held by the US.

Bill Burr slammed CNN and Joe Biden on his recent podcast. The comedian, who is never concerned with being politically correct, said the network is a “f–king treasonous un-American pieces of s–t” that can’t stop talking about President Trump because Joe Biden is a “bore.” Burr has a weekly podcast on Thursdays. He doesn’t hold back his feelings on the topics of the day and last Thursday, he aimed his fire at CNN.

Opinions expressed in this article don't necessarily reflect the views of ScienceAlert editorial staff. ================================================================================== Haruko Obokata published two papers in January 2014 that described how regular blood cells could be turned into pluripotent stem cells. At the time, this was a coup – it dramatically simplified a previously complicated process and opened up new vistas of medical and biological research, while neatly sidestepping the bioethical considerations of using human embryos to harvest stem cells. Moreover, the process for this was straightforward, and involved applying a weak acid solution or mechanical pressure – oddly similar to how you'd clean a...

MSNBC “Morning Joe” co-host Mika Brzezinski on Monday tore into former President Donald Trump and his “evil” media allies for having created a deadly cult regarding the coronavirus. Brzezinski pushed back against allowing disinformation about vaccines to spread on the “Wild West” that is Facebook. She emphasized the importance of not allowing the likes of Trump and his allies to sow doubt about vaccines and weaponizing opposition to the vaccine.

VIDEOThe mainstream media has gone into a frenzy reporting on General Mark Milley's claims about a supposed "coup" in the wake of the 2020 election. One of Milley's claims was a conversation he supposedly had on the topic with White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows during the Army-Navy game. So why didn't all these meeting outlets slobbering over the Milley story check with Meadows about Milley's claim? Probably because they feared that Meadows would inconveniently contradict the narrative they are trying to promote. If that was their fear they were right because Meadows did indeed call BS on Milley's...

What better time to push through amnesty for potentially millions of illegal immigrants than during the Biden border crisis? As tone-deaf as the plan is, that is exactly what Senate Democrats are planning to do in the $3.5T infrastructure bill. A decision has not been made on the numbers yet but Senator Dick Durbin, the Senate Democratic Whip, confirmed this week that it will happen. Democrats will try to push through immigration reform in the budget process.

A comprehensive analysis of adverse events during clinical trials and over the course of mass vaccinations with the Sputnik V vaccine coronavirus showed that there were no cases of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST). All vaccines based on adenoviral vector platform are different and not directly comparable. In particular, AstraZeneca’s ChAdOx1-S vaccine uses chimpanzee adenovirus to deliver the antigen, consisting of S-protein combined with leader sequence of tissue-type plasminogen activator. The vaccine from Johnson&Johnson uses human adenovirus serotype Ad26 and full-length S-protein stabilized by mutations. In addition, it is produced using the PER.C6 cell line (embryonic retinal cells), which is...

Georgia's Speaker of the House David Ralston is demanding an investigation to "determine if any irregularities or willful fraud occurred" in the state's largest metropolis last November, saying recent revelations about problems with vote counting in Fulton County merit an independent probe.Ralston sent a letter late last week to Fulton County election officials requesting that the Georgia Bureau of Investigation be allowed to conduct the investigation.The request comes after Just the News reported last month that an independent observer for Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger noted two dozen pages of irregularities in the Atlanta vote counting center last Nov....

Making fun of Coke's virtue signaling, sanctimony and raw hypocrisy

Young North Koreans have been warned they must follow traditional lifestyles and adhere to the country's dialect. The secluded state's official newspaper made the demand in a column as Pyongyang tries to eradicate cultural influences from South Korea. Kim Jong Un's regime is particularly focused on the speaking habits of millennials, with some mimicking their neighbours by referring to their husbands as "oppa" - a term that means "older brother". The Rodong Sinmun newspaper said North Korea's standard language is superior and young people must use it correctly - all while ensuring their clothes, hairstyle, music preferences and dancing styles...

During the 2016 presidential campaign, Donald Trump accused Sen. Ted Cruz of election fraud, described him as “very unstable,” accused his father of aiding in the assassination of John F. Kennedy, and his insulted his wife. For all his embarrassment, Cruz (and the rest of the GOP field) got crushed by Trump in the primary, and then he shamelessly groveled and worked to get the man who called his wife ugly elected to the presidency. That, apparently, is Ted Cruz’s idea of “fun.” Cruz was asked in a Thursday interview whether he was thinking about another run for president and...

WASHINGTON, Thursday, July 18. Twenty-four army wagons, loaded heavily with boxes of muskets, left the arsenal at 5 o'clock P. M., and proceeded to the railroad station, where they were transferred to a freight train, and taken off on the Washington Branch Railroad, probably for Col. H.W. LAMON's Martinsburgh Regiment. The gun-boat Freeborn, which has been thoroughly overhauled and repaired at the Navy-yard, was launched from the ways this evening. She will receive her armament and provisions, and immediately rejoin the Potomac River police. The steam-propeller Jersey Blue came up to the Navy-yard this afternoon, to be inspected, the owners...

Big Machine Label Group has taken criticism for releasing singer Aaron Lewis’ recent number-one country song bashing liberals, but the company’s CEO, Scott Borchetta, says he is standing by his artist. Left-wing music blogger Bob Lefsetz recently wrote that Lewis’ song is “heinous” and slammed Big Machine for releasing the hit “Am I the Only One.” But Borchetta wrote an open letter defending his label’s actions in reply to the criticism launched by liberals such as Lefsetz. ... Lewis’ song, “Am I the Only One,” soared to number one on the country charts despite getting no radio airtime. The song...

The FDA perspective If you need to get up to speed on the controversy, look here. The approval was based on three studies. 197 patients in a double-blind cohort study looking at increasing doses of aducanumab (Aduhlem). There was a dose-related improvement in both patients’ clinical improvement and reduction in visible Aβplaque (the anatomic biomarker of Alzheimer’s Disease found within the brain). These findings were statistically significant only at the highest dose, 10mg/kg monthly. Two Phase III studies, involving roughly 1650 patients each, both double-blind, placebo-controlled. The first of these showed the same clinical improvement as the previous smaller study...

Former President Donald Trump declared his opposition to a high-ranking Georgia Republican’s bid for lieutenant governor. Trump invited other Republicans to run against Senate President Pro Tem Butch Miller in the statement released late Wednesday. “I will not be supporting or endorsing Sen. Butch Miller, running for lieutenant governor of Georgia, because of his refusal to work with other Republican senators on voter fraud and irregularities in the state,” Trump said. “Hopefully there will be strong and effective primary challengers for the very important lieutenant governor position!” This statement comes after a series of allegations of voter fraud in Georgia...

President Donald Trump supporters and American patriots nationwide are emboldened after an Arizona state Senate hearing on the Maricopa County election audit proved massive fraud. Among the audit’s findings so far: 11,326 people in the county who voted in the November 3 election were NOT on the voter rolls on November 7, but were added to the voter rolls by December 4. This number is higher than Joe Biden’s supposed statewide “lead” in Arizona of 10,457 votes. Additionally, more than 74,000 mail-in ballots were counted in the county even though there is no recorded evidence of the ballots being sent...

“Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God; and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God; and this is the spirit of the antichrist, of which you have heard that it is coming, and now it is already in the world” (1 John 4:1-3). God’s children are able to discern false doctrine. A sure...
