Experts are warning that the greatest threat to the pandemic recovery in the United States are the large swaths of Americans who remain unvaccinated. Over the past few weeks, the U.S. has seen a surge of coronavirus cases across the country in the wake of the highly infectious delta variant. The new strain has particularly wreaked havoc in states with low vaccination rates. The state of Missouri has recently become a U.S. hot spot, averaging more than 2,100 cases per day over the last seven-day period, according to data from The New York Times. About 41 percent of the state...

Former President Donald Trump calls Sen. Lisa Murkowski “disloyal.” State party leaders want her to quit identifying herself as a Republican candidate. But Murkowski’s campaign finance reports show outside Alaska, she still has a comfortable spot in the Republican fold. Murkowski’s most recent report shows a pair of $5,000 contributions this spring from Bluegrass PAC. That’s a political action committee affiliated with the Senate’s top Republican, Minority Leader Mitch McConnell. Murkowski has crossed Republicans on a host of issues, and McConnell had another Republican candidate in Alaska he could have supported: Kelly Tshibaka. Tshibaka is pitching herself as the rightful...

Here is what the CDC says: After December 31, 2021, CDC will withdraw the request to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) of the CDC 2019-Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Real-Time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel, the assay first introduced in February 2020 for detection of SARS-CoV-2 only. CDC is providing this advance notice for clinical laboratories to have adequate time to select and implement one of the many FDA-authorized alternatives. A source from Gov. Newsom’s $100 million lab explained to the Globe in February about the high number of false positive PCR tests: “Results from a positive...

Big Tech companies including Facebook, Google, Microsoft, Twitter, Reddit, Verizon, Airbnb, and Mailchimp will expand a project of collusion on “counterterrorism” efforts that target domestic right-wing organizations. The organization, which initially focused on building a database on content shared by Islamic extremists linked to Al Qaeda, ISIS, and the Taliban, will now shift focus to right-wing groups including the Proud Boys. Via Reuters: A counterterrorism organization formed by some of the biggest U.S. tech companies including Facebook (FB.O) and Microsoft (MSFT.O) is significantly expanding the types of extremist content shared between firms in a key database, aiming to crack down...

Pronouns are often attributed to a person at birth, when newborns can be labelled ‘he/him’ or ‘she/her’ depending on their biological sex. Despite a wealth of progress on the matter, many people still have a habit of assuming a person’s gender and pronouns. To highlight these issues, Instagram partnered with Mermaids, one of the UK’s leading LGBTQ+ charities, to conduct a study of 2,000 UK adults and find out how many people are open and accepting to acknowledging a person’s pronouns. Of the 2,000 participants, 61% said they never ask someone their pronouns when meeting for the first time, paving...

California Governor Gavin Newsom (D) on Monday compared law-abiding, unvaccinated Americans to dangerous, murderous drunk drivers. CNN on Monday asked Newsom if it’s time to bring back the universal mask mandate regardless of vaccination status because of rising Covid cases. Newsom immediately blamed unvaccinated people for the rise in Covid cases “We don’t even have to have that debate if we could just get everybody vaccinated…living vaccine free is impacting the rest of us like drunk drivers,” Newsom said. “You don’t have the right to go out and drink and drive and put everybody else at risk including your own...

An article from Politico reads as one long whiny diatribe but it does make clear what troubles the GA democrat party. They're upset that they can't cheat and the authors are entirely sympathetic. The state’s new voter I.D. requirement for mail-in ballots could affect the more than 270,000 Georgians lacking identification. The provision cutting the number of ballot drop boxes could affect hundreds of thousands of voters who cast absentee ballots that way in 2020 — and that’s just in the populous Atlanta suburbs alone. It didn’t take long before the implications became clear to party officials and voting rights...

FORT WORTH, Texas - A group of people in Fort Worth stoned a gunman to death after a shooting killed one and injured three others. The incident happened about 1 a.m. Monday in Fort Worth's Como neighborhood on the southwest side in the 5600 block of Shiloh Drive, near Bryant Irvin Road and the Chisholm Trail Parkway. Police said "small gathering" was happening in someone's backyard when a person became upset and left. He shortly returned, with another person, and got into an argument with multiple people. At that point he shot at least one person, non-fatally police said. After...

Tucker Carlson told a man at a fly fishing shop to “settle down” after calling the Fox News host “the worst human being known to mankind.” The man, named Dan Bailey, added, “I don’t care that your daughter’s here.” After laughing, Carlson told Bailey, “Settle down, son.” Bailey responded, “Don’t call me ‘son.'”

The establishment media has consistently attempted to paint the ongoing audit of the 2020 presidential election in Maricopa County, Arizona, as a partisan hit job. On the contrary, Arizona state Senate President Karen Fann said in an exclusive interview with The Western Journal last week that the audit has uncovered questionable practices that need to be addressed. One of the issues Fann discussed was the haphazard nature in which the ballots had been placed into boxes and presented to the auditors.

(CNN)These two paragraphs from The Washington Post are both unsurprising and deeply troubling: "Former president Donald Trump's political PAC raised about $75 million in the first half of this year as he trumpeted the false notion that the 2020 election was stolen from him, but the group has not devoted funds to help finance the ongoing ballot review in Arizona or to push for similar endeavors in other states, according to people familiar with the finances. "Instead, the Save America leadership PAC — which has few limits on how it can spend its money — has paid for some of...

Playing Fair with CheatersIt’s time to end the era of shared house leadership in Texas.How does a voter in Texas elect a legislature controlled solely by Republicans? The simple answer should be, as it is in other states, to elect a Republican majority. Unfortunately, in Texas right now, they can’t.As the eyes of the nation fix on Texas House Democrats who have fled the state to prevent a vote on election integrity legislation, many of those same Democrats preening daily as underdog civil rights protestors before the CNN cameras actually have powerful leadership positions in a legislature under Republican control.This...

The [Catholic] Church raises a wall against non-vaccinated personsAccess to Masses celebrated by the Pope in Slovakia is prohibited to those who are not vaccinated. And in Italy, the bishop’s daily newspaper launches a crusade against those who oppose mandatory vaccination. Fully espousing the pro-vaccination cause and the adoption of the Green pass, the Church of mercy that advocates tearing down all walls, is building one around the Mass.The Green pass party has also found a high profile sponsor: the Catholic Church. In fact, it is easy to imagine the impact the news regarding the pope’s upcoming visit to Hungary...

“We are exhausted, respectfully, exhausted by the ideological prism that too many Americans are living under. We’re exhausted by the (Wisconsin Sen.) Ron Johnsons and the Tucker Carlsons. We’re exhausted by the (Georgia Rep.) Marjorie Taylor Greenes, we’re exhausted by the right-wing echo chamber that has been perpetuating misinformation around the vaccine and its efficacy and safety,” Newsom said. “We’re exhausted by the politicalization of this pandemic, and that includes mask-wearing that has been equated to the Holocaust. It’s disgraceful, it’s unconscionable, and it needs to be called out.” “It’s a choice to live with this virus, and with all...

(CNN)President Joe Biden's presidency is now six months old. You'd be forgiven if you didn't realize how long Biden has been in office because Biden doesn't generate anywhere near the same news interest (see Google searches) as his predecessor, former President Donald Trump, did. The lack of a topsy turvy first few months has translated to Biden's approval rating. It's been the most stable for any president since the end of World War II. This, indeed, has been the story of the Biden presidency from a popularity standpoint. At every point at which I've checked in to see how Biden...
