Biden’s Weakness Will Result in Aggression Biden’s rhetoric and proclaimed compassion is meaningless as bad actors pay attention to action. Biden’s incompetence has made the world a more dangerous place. Even before the stunning display of American failure in Afghanistan, Joe Biden appeared slow-witted and spineless on crucial U.S. national security matters. Biden handed Russian President Vladimir Putin gift after gift: extending the START Treaty, lifting Nord Stream 2 pipeline sanctions despite bipartisan legislation, and essentially surrendering Ukraine to Russia. During the Biden-Putin summit in Geneva in June, Biden was tougher with an American journalist than with Putin. After Biden’s...

Today, the FDA approved the Pfizer COVID vaccine. This vaccine is the first of the three vaccines authorized under EUA to achieve this status. In this blog, I’ll highlight what this approval means. Obviously, this is just a first look at the information released by the FDA today. I’ve not studied the Full Prescribing Information in detail. There may be more changes that I have overlooked; I will update you on these as they become apparent. First, let’s talk about what hasn’t changed. The vaccine has not changed. There have been no modifications to the vaccine. The vaccine that was...

According to the New York Times and multiple media outlets, Pfizer is expected to get full FDA approval today. “The move would make it the first Covid vaccine to go from emergency use authorization to full FDA approval.” (read more) With that in mind, it is worth a reminder that both Pfizer and Moderna stopped the clinical trials the FDA was using in their review:The Moderna and Pfizer vaccine tests were conducted, as customary, with a control group; a group within the trial who were given a placebo and not the test vaccine. However, during the trial -and after the...

It’s so refreshing to have a female vice president. You know, someone who really and truly cares. Someone like Kamala Harris: We’d like to know what Kamala Harris thinks constitutes “great emotion,” because based on that performance, we can’t honestly believe that she knows what emotions even are. Maybe that’s why she had to check her notes.

U.S.—100 million Americans who were previously hesitant to get vaccinated are rejoicing today after the FDA approved it, proving that everything is totally safe. According to sources, the Food and Drug Administration is completely trustworthy and has never approved harmful drugs for the public before. Those sources further confirmed that the FDA is a part of the government, which has never lied or been incompetent or corrupt in any way. "Yeah, I've always trusted the government and drug companies, so I guess I'm ok to get the vaccine now," said Bubba Snugglebrugg, who was previously a militant anti-vaxxer. "I can't...

Historic roads led them to the Flight 93...

The usual hysterical fake newsers like Jennifer Rubin and Max Boot celebrating the medical tyranny. The establishment is wasting no time announcing vaccine mandates in the military and in New York and California minutes after the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) approval of the COVID mRNA injection. Just minutes after the FDA’s announcement, Pentagon spokesperson John Kirby announced Monday that the military is now requiring soldiers to get the jab under threat of court martial. “Now that the Pfizer vaccine has been approved, the Defense Department is prepared to issue new guidance requiring all service members to be vaccinated,” Kirby...

The left continues to marginalize those with reservations against the vaccine (largely libertarian and conservatives). The script goes like this: “The same people that were against vaccines are now against shutting the government down to save lives!!!” This is to happen in time for the 2022 midterms (the second shutdown so that democrats can cheat a second time). Lefties on social media are already calling for the death of “ANTI-VAXXERS”

As the leading executioner per capita in the world, it is perhaps appropriate that a notorious killer, known as ‘The Butcher of Tehran,’ has ascended to the presidency. Following his rigged election, Ebrahim Raisi was inaugurated as president on August 5th. Listed as an international terrorist in the USA, Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch have called for his indictment for violations of human rights and crimes against humanity. He has boasted of his role as a member of the ‘Death Commission’ appointed by the then Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khomeini in 1988, which oversaw the massacre of more than 30,000...

A significant number of Joe Biden’s top foreign policy advisors – including his Director of National Intelligence and National Security Advisor – participated in an event advocating against the “containment” of the Chinese Communist Party, with funding coming from various Chinese Communist regime-backed sources, The National Pulse can reveal. The news comes as analysts review Biden’s botched Afghanistan withdrawal, and raise questions as to the intent of the White House in diminishing America’s role in the world. China Forum. Organized by the University of California San Diego’s (UCSD) 21st Century China Center since 2019, the annual “China Forum” has counted...

Major air carriers American and Southwest airlines on Monday joined the Afghan evacuation effort, freeing up parts of their fleets to aid in the US withdrawal from Kabul. American is deploying three wide-body planes to US military bases and other third-country sites to transport Afghan refugees who were flown out of Kabul airport by military aircraft — with Southwest announcing it will dispatch four flights on Monday, Fox Business reported. “This is a challenging time and, like always, we are stronger when we come together around a common purpose and work together for the greater good,” American Airlines CEO Doug...

Australia's New South Wales has gone stark, raving mad. Eleven days ago, it renewed complete lockdowns, including barring people from speaking to each other, thanks to a few hundred new cases and the deaths of two men in their 90s. These new cases were on top of the 12,588 cases and 91 deaths since last February, out of a population of 5.3 million — in other words, numbers that aren't even a statistical blip. That, it turns out, was the beginning. The state shepherded tens of thousands of children into arenas and injected them with vaccines, it's arresting people for...

It seems bad optics is a Democrat brand, as Queen Nancy displays the height of privilege. The visuals alone would be impressively bad, based alone on the years of racial identity politics being played by Democrats. But once you layer in the politicization of the pandemic for over a year, and the way this past month you have heard from Democrats and media figures about how Republicans are actively trying to kill their own citizens, things appear even more outlandish. It is hardly breaking news when Democrats display double standards, but even by their own recidivist standards, the outbreak of...

The US Capitol Police officer who shot and killed pro-Trump rioter Ashli Babbitt on January 6 will not face any disciplinary action, the department said Monday. "USCP's Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) determined the officer's conduct was lawful and within Department policy, which says an officer may use deadly force only when the officer reasonably believes that action is in the defense of human life, including the officer's own life, or in the defense of any person in immediate danger of serious physical injury," the department said in a statement. The officer will not be named, the department said, out...

My Experience with the New MassI do not like to write in an autobiographical vein, but since I am of those Pope Francis has marked for extinction, perhaps public testimony is fitting. An aggressor should tolerate a word even from his victims. The Holy Father may consider this a contribution for an anticipated exhibit on the indigenous people of the Catholic Church. The New Mass and I grew up together, so to speak. The Mass was introduced to my home diocese of Wichita, Kansas, during my second-grade year, 1970-1971, and our Catholic school prepared us to receive First Communion in...
