Israeli Ministry of Health announces that the "Green Pass" for vaccinated expires when 6 months have passed after the 2nd dose and now also 6 months after the 3rd ("booster") vaccination.

Former President George W. Bush is scheduled to hold a fundraiser for Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) next month, as the three-term congresswoman fights to keep her seat amid a campaign to oust her by former President Trump and his allies. The fundraiser — which will be Bush’s first campaign event for the 2022 midterms — is slated to take place in Dallas on Oct. 18, a source confirmed to The Hill. The event will be co-hosted by Karl Rove, a longtime Bush political adviser and someone who consulted with Trump during his 2020 reelection bid, in addition to former Sen....

Climate activist James Murdoch gave at least $1 million to a group fighting to undermine state oversight of elections. That same group also backed Big Tech censorship against former President Donald Trump. Murdoch — son of News Corporation Executive Chairman Rupert Murdoch, — funded several equally leftist causes during the 2020 election. His philanthropic organization — Quadrivium Foundation — gave at least $1 million to the Protect Democracy Project (PDP) according to its 2019 990. PDP is the sister organization of the left-wing United to Protect Democracy (UPD). In 2020, PDP filed a lawsuit on behalf of leftist organizations over...

Here is a link to an article from last year about a DARPA created product that will monitor your blood for Covid infection. It is a microchip that you will take under your skin to alert you at the first signs of infection. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/last-pandemic-science-military-60-minutes-2021-04-11/ It is not a stretch to believe that after the government mandated vaccines end up failing, the government will decide they need to mandate these implanted sensors "to keep us safe". This is my question for those that took the vaccine not believing they needed it for health reasons but rather for convenience, social pressure, job...

resident Biden’s vaccine mandate not only demonstrates a lack of statesmanship in a time of uncertainty, but also misunderstanding of the economic role and function of American businesses, entrepreneurs, and employees. The president’s mandate is both cynical and divisive. Had his advisors thought it within the letter of the law, he likely would have forced every American to be vaccinated. But even if a president had such power, “may” does not imply “should.” Much like the draft, having power over people doesn’t necessitate exercising it – especially on an issue as important and contentious as this one. Biden’s mandate is...

While Americans know that guns take many innocent lives every year, many don’t know that firearms also save them. On May 15, an attacker at an apartment complex in Fort Smith, Ark., fatally shot a woman and then fired 93 rounds at other people before a man killed him with a bolt-action rifle. Police said he “likely saved a number of lives in the process.” On June 30, a 12-year-old Louisiana boy used a hunting rifle to stop an armed burglar who was threatening his mother’s life during a home invasion. On July 4, a Chicago gunman shot into a...

Six years ago, Dan Price, the founder and CEO of credit-card processing company Gravity Payments. made waves when he announced that he was raising the firm's minimum salary to $70,000 for his 120 employees. To accommodate the change, Price slashed his own $1 million salary. In the following years, revenue soared, and staff had many more babies and bought more homes, Price told Insider. The Seattle-based company's starting wages used to be roughly $35,000, Price said. But for the company to thrive, he felt he needed to make sure all employees were making enough to look after themselves.

The Centers for Disease Control warned that doctors must prepare for a wave of mumps, measles, leishmaniasis, and worse still, polio. Already, 20 people arriving from Afghanistan have been diagnosed with mumps or measles.

Former first lady Michelle Obama is already mobilizing celebrities in preparation for next year’s midterms, recruiting famous faces to push key legislation including the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, which would federalize elections and cancel voter identification requirements. Michelle Obama’s When We All Vote organization has announced a new slate of events featuring Scary Movie actress Regina Hall, TikTok celebrity La’Ron Hines, NBA star Chris Paul, and “The Breakfast Club” host Angela Yee. The events will focus on voter registration drives in local communities while also advancing Democrat-backed legislation.

Electronic cigarettes, which deliver nicotine without tobacco or combustion, are the most important harm-reducing alternative to smoking ever developed -- one that could prevent millions of premature deaths in the United States alone. Yet bureaucrats and politicians seem determined to negate that historic opportunity through regulations and taxes that threaten to cripple the industry. When a court-set deadline for "premarket" approval of vaping products came and went on Sept. 9, the Food and Drug Administration had received millions of applications but had not approved any. As a result, the agency says, every vaping device and nicotine liquid sold in the...

The United States is set to significantly increase the amount of Covid-19 vaccines it will ship to foreign nations beginning in 2022 in an effort to end the pandemic worldwide, the White House announced Wednesday. As part of a virtual Covid-19 summit on the margins of the UN General Assembly, President Joe Biden will announce that the US is purchasing an additional 500 million Pfizer Covid-19 vaccines to donate to low- and lower-middle-income countries around the world, a senior administration official said, previewing the summit. The newly announced 500 million doses are on top of the 500 million the US...

At first they are replaced by autumn’s radiant display of hues. This season of ever shortening days and longer nights requires a sorting down, a retention of bare essentials. Thus all that finery is tossed to the wind, left to crinkle, brown, decay and nourish the barren earth. Their hosts tuck themselves down...

EASTON, Pa. - Classes across the country are looking a lot different with COVID still an issue. But even with masking & mass vaccinations, Lafayette College students are still catching the virus. Nearly ALL of the more than 2,500 Lafayette students are vaccinated, but 145 of them tested positive in just the past week. I was really sick about a day before I got tested," said senior William Chabala. He said he got his vaccinations and still suffered severe symptoms.

President Joe Biden used his one-on-one meeting with British Prime Minister Boris Johnson Tuesday to reprise a story about an Amtrak conductor who supposedly congratulated him for traveling 2 million miles on the rail service — despite having died before the story purportedly took place. After Biden noted that Johnson had traveled from New York to Washington, DC on Amtrak for their White House meeting, he proclaimed to Johnson and the assembled media that “I got to tell you a quick story that has nothing to do with anything.” The president began by recalling that when he was Vice President,...

Skin penetrating nanoparticles made airborne, enhanced with human chimeric spike proteins.Creating new MERS viruses with fatality rate greater than 30 percent.Newly leaked documents reveal researchers led by Peter Daszak applied for $14 million in funding.

Wuhan and US scientists were planning to release enhanced airborne coronavirus particles into Chinese bat populations to inoculate them against diseases that could jump to humans, leaked grant proposals dating from 2018 show. New documents show that just 18 months before the first Covid-19 cases appeared, researchers had submitted plans to release skin-penetrating nanoparticles and aerosols containing “novel chimeric spike proteins” of bat coronaviruses into cave bats in Yunnan, China. They also planned to create chimeric viruses, genetically enhanced to infect humans more easily, and requested $14million from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (Darpa) to fund the work. Papers,...

The top U.S. military officer met with his Russian counterpart Wednesday, against the backdrop of U.S. struggles to get military basing rights and other counterterrorism support in countries bordering Afghanistan — a move Moscow has flatly opposed. The meeting in the Finnish capital, Helsinki, between Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, and Chief of the Russian General Staff Gen. Valery Gerasimov comes at a crucial time in the wake of the military withdrawal from Afghanistan. Without troops on the ground, the U.S. needs to forge more basing, intelligence sharing and other agreements to help monitor...

Beltway raconteur Bob Woodward has a track record for sensationalizing gossip in order to create buzz and sell books. In American high schools and the Washington Beltway -- is there a difference? -- "buzz" is a term for manipulating emotional and social responses to achieve a goal. Woodward? He wants to sell books and demonstrate he matters, years after Watergate made him a Washington Post legend. In the case of high school, the buzz creators are usually Mean Girls decapitating Nice Girl rivals or punishing boys and girls who ignore or abhor Mean Girl deceits, scams and deceptions. Washington? Hey,...

Scientists have created the ultimate GM crop: contraceptive corn. Waiving fields of maize may one day save the world from overpopulation. The pregnancy prevention plants are the handiwork of the San Diego biotechnology company Epicyte, where researchers have discovered a rare class of human antibodies that attack sperm. By isolating the genes that regulate the manufacture of these antibodies, and by putting them in corn plants, the company has created tiny horticultural factories that make contraceptives. 'We have a hothouse filled with corn plants that make anti-sperm antibodies,' said Epicyte president Mitch Hein.
