Job openings in the United States surged to a record high of more than 10 million in June, while hiring lagged behind that figure by over 3 million, painting a picture of an economic recovery held back by a labor shortage as businesses struggle to find workers.The Labor Department’s Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS), released Aug. 9, showed that the number of job vacancies jumped by 590,000 to 10.1 million on the last day of June, led by gains in professional and business services, retail trade, and accommodation and food services.“This is by far the record amount of...

The Sturgis (SD) Motorcycle Rally is underway in ends next Sunday, and the Wuhan fearmongers are hard at work demonizing the event.If you aren’t familiar with the event, every year at this time, some 450,000 motorcyclists, plus or minus, descend upon the town of Sturgis, SD (population 6,700) for a week of consciousness-raising, scholarly conferences, and the presentation of academic papers. Of course, there are also adult beverages, substances legal and illegal, and celebrations of the biker culture…I’m looking forward to Sturgis joining “Juneteenth” on the Pantheon of holidays.There is some mild depravity, like the Bikini Bike Wash, but nothing...

The vast majority of school boards across the nation are embracing the guidance being delivered to them by the CDC, NIH, and state health boards. As we’ve demonstrated with literally hundreds of articles here, the “guidance” is agenda-driven, not science-driven. They are pushing for universal adoption of the Covid-19 injections, embracing totalitarian control over businesses, and herding the people into a dystopian future with ubiquitous face masks and perpetual fear of a disease with a 99.97% recovery rate for those under the age of 45. The Mount Vernon School Board in Indiana is adopting the same vaccine and face masks...

Over the course of the pandemic, federal overspending has exploded even by Congress’s lofty standards. While trillion-dollar deficits were a cause for concern before 2020, spending over just the last two years is set to increase the national debt by over $6 trillion. It’s bizarre, then, that the only thing that members of opposing parties in Congress can seem to work together on is fooling the budgetary scorekeepers with phantom offsets for even more spending.Photo: Bill Clark, Roll CallIn total, the bipartisan infrastructure deal includes around $550 billion in new federal spending on infrastructure to take place over five years....

On the final day of the Tokyo Olympics, the United States' women's volleyball team seized the moment to make history. The Americans swept past Brazil to clinch the nation's first-ever gold in women's volleyball. It's the fourth total medal for the U.S. in the sport after winning silvers in 1984, 2008 and 2012. Michelle Bartsch-Hackley set the tone in the first set with two straight kills, and the U.S. took a 4-0 lead. Strong defensive play from Foluke Akinradewo Gunderson and stellar serves by Kim Hill propelled the Americans to a 25-21 victory despite a missed call gifting Brazil a...

COVID-19 is ravaging China.The Delta variant is spreading across the country fast, and Beijing has no answer to the new strain other than draconian, totalitarian brute-force measures—and blaming foreigners.Millions of Chinese residents are now in various forms of lockdown. The recent infections constitute the most widespread coronavirus outbreak since the disease first hit China, sometime in late 2019.The new flare-up, which quickly slipped beyond the control of the authorities, is undermining core Communist Party propaganda narratives.Chinese authorities trace the latest series of infections to a flight landing at the Nanjing Lukou International Airport from Russia on July 20.

China’s latest COVID outbreak, the fourth wave to hit the country, has officially become the country’s worst outbreak since the virus first emerged, as the delta variant continues to spread despite Beijing’s heavy-handed response, which has involved testing of millions of people, travel restrictions, and, in a few cases, residential or local lockdowns. Worries that Beijing’s response might impact GDP growth led economists at Goldman Sachs to cut their China 2021 growth forecasts due to the fast spread of the variant. Goldman slashed its Q3 real GDP forecast to 2.3% from 5.8% , but raised its Q4 growth forecast to...

ORANGE (CBSLA) — After 15 members of one Orange County family came down with COVID-19 in mid-June — contracted they believe at an indoor birthday party — the youngest of the group is still suffering aftereffects, even after recovering from the virus itself. 14-year-old Daniel Salinas developed COVID-19 psychosis, his family told CBSLA Sunday.

Salinas’ mother, Wilma Singh, said shortly after her son recovered from COVID-19, she began to notice his behavior change. On Aug. 1, her son came down...

..”If the public are bound to yield obedience to laws to which they cannot give their approbation, they are slaves to those who make such laws and enforce them.”.. ~Sam AdamsThe overwhelming majority of dictates around COVID-19 mitigation are not laws, they are rules created by un-elected bureaucrats. There was no debate; no input from representative government; and no option for the public to weigh-in on the decisions. All unilateral rules are arbitrary, and despite many proclamations to the contrary, they rely upon voluntary compliance. As soon as citizens no longer voluntarily comply, the term of the rules has expired....

ATLANTA, GA—CNN has fired three employees for not being vaccinated, and now the laid-off workers are wishing they had just exposed themselves on camera instead so they could have kept their jobs. The three laid-off employees drank away their sorrows at a local bar, expressing their regrets for not getting vaccinated when they could have just Toobined themselves on a Zoom call with coworkers and kept their jobs. "Man, if I'd only have pulled a Toobin on camera, I would have been fine!" lamented one of the laid-off journalists over a few beers. "I should have just, you know, watched...

A Democrat judge out of Travis County, Texas, sided Sunday with Democrat lawmakers, pejoratively called “fleebaggers,” who fled the state in protest of new election integrity laws. State District Judge Brad Urrutia granted a temporary restraining order “blocking the arrest of House Democrats who have broken quorum by leaving the state, paving the way for those who remain outside of Texas to return home without threat of arrest,” KWTX reported. More than 50 House Democrats fled the Lone Star State to Washington, DC, in early July to block the passage of an elections bill they said would restrict voting access....

After analyzing data from a July 2021 Provincetown, Massachusetts COVID-19 outbreak where 74 percent of those infected and diagnosed were fully vaccinated,1 the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced last month that vaccinated individuals can become infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus and transmit it to others.2 Expressing “alarm” at this new information, the government agency in charge of protecting the public health doubled down on imperatives for a return to masking, including for the vaccinated, and more vaccination.3 Had the CDC and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) been more transparent with the public from the beginning about...

Say no more!" said one man, exiting the line to get the vaccine in front...
