ransomnote: I've seen a few reports now which track a reduction in the immune systems of those who are double vaccinated. None are implying that the virus responsible for AIDS is causing immune defficiency in the 'vaccinated'. Instead they point to something link 'vaccine mediated acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.'The last 7 Public Health England / UK Health Security Agency ‘Vaccine Surveillance’ report figures on Covid-19 cases show that double vaccinated 40-79 year-olds have now lost lost 50% of their immune system capability and are consistently losing a further 5% every week (between 3.9% and 8.8%).Projections therefore suggest that 40-79 year-olds will...

President Joe Biden used a CNN “town hall” where attendance was “by invitation only” to further vent his anger at those Americans “who continue to try my patience. Look, I know I said that I wouldn’t make vaccinations mandatory. But that was nine months ago. I naively thought that Americans would take the advice of their president. I mean, why elect me if you’re going to second guess every zig and zag of my policies. Where’s the trust?” “I gave everyone six months to voluntarily get vaccinated,” Biden said. “I was stunned that there were so many resisters. It’s not...

The latest report from the UK Health Security Agency shows that the Chief Medical Officer (CMO) for England’s decision to recommend all children over the age of 12 should be vaccinated against Covid-19 was a huge mistake because the data shows children are 69% more likely to be hospitalised with Covid-19 if they are fully vaccinated.Chris Whitty; the CMO for England, overruled the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) on the 13th September 2021 and wrote a letter to the UK Government advising them to offer the Pfizer Covid-19 injection to all children over the age of 12 with...

...Late Thursday, the CDC announced that adults who received a Pfizer or Moderna COVID-19 vaccine can get a booster shot at 6 months or more after the initial series, if they are in one of the following groups: -65 years and older -18 years and older who live in long-term care settings -18 years and older who have underlying medical conditions, ranging from asthma to obesity to stroke survivors -18 years and older who live or work in high-risk settings, such as first responders, teachers and grocery store workers -Immunocompromised individuals for whom a third dose of an mRNA vaccine...

Climate change technocrats plan on using same methods that convinced public to obey lockdown. A deleted government report exploring how to make the public alter its behavior to accept the new ‘green economy’ reveals how COVID-19 restrictions have created a population with a “deep set reverence” for authority and a “powerful tendency to conform.” The report was inadvertently published by the British government before being hastily pulled down, but numerous journalists were able to retrieve its contents. The document explored how to weaponize behavioral psychology to ‘nudge’ the public into supporting measures and adopting behavior without them explicitly knowing they’re...

In the late 19th century, John Harvey Kellogg, a eugenicist and celibate vegetarian, became the leading health food nut of the era and along the way accidentally invented corn flakes. Back then Kellogg’s Battle Creek Sanitarium was a spa for the rich where patients got electric baths and enemas (the subject of a scathing parody in the book and movie, The Road to Wellville). These days, Battle Creek, Michigan is in much worse shape and Kellogg’s is the area’s biggest employer. But the corporation, like most of its multinational woke ilk, spends most of its time virtue signaling social justice...

Alec Baldwin failed to follow the No. 1 rule of gun safety before the fatal shooting on the set of “Rust,” a Hollywood weapons expert tells The Post. “Loaded or unloaded, a weapon never gets pointed at another human being,” said Bryan Carpenter, who heads Dark Thirty Film Services. Even on a film or TV set, he said “you never let the muzzle of a weapon cover something you don’t intend to destroy.” The prop gun had misfired twice on Oct. 16 and once the week before, according to the Los Angeles times, and union workers said the “Rust” set...

Yesterday, I delivered an address at Wellesley College in Massachusetts as the first stop on my fall speaking tour entitled, The Future Is Anti Abortion: Preparing For A Post-Roe America.I was eager to speak at Wellesley because I believe it’s crucial to engage with students who don’t understand the pro-life worldview. And ahead of my visit, Wellesley students provided ample evidence that they hate not what we actually believe, but what they think we believe. Students prepared for my visit by disseminating a 30-page document in which they attached every unfounded, trendy label they could to smear my name and...

A section of infectious disease experts in India believes that vaccines have no benefits to such individuals who have naturally recovered from Covid-19. Instead, it might cause some harm to them and lead to Serious Adverse Event Following Immunization (SAEFI). Deaths, blood clotting or other health complications have been reported due to SAEFI from across the world and health experts say that it has nothing to do with any deficiency in the safety aspects of approved Covid-19 vaccines. “Even a good vaccine can cause health complications due to adverse side effects as each human body responds to inoculation differently. But...

Technically speaking, a micrometeoroid is a tiny piece of rock that under normal circumstances (like say after passing through Earth’s atmosphere) would pose no danger. The problem is these things are never to be found in normal circumstances, and are known to travel through space at speeds of over 22,000 mph (35,400 kph). At those speeds, and with virtually no way to detect them in time, they’re like cannon shells for anyone or anything standing in their way. The Glenn Research Center is the place where something called Ballistic Impact Lab resides. That would be a facility that houses a...

The US will “unfortunately” continue to delay the public release of records related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, and officials say the COVID-19 pandemic is to blame. The move was announced in a memo signed by President Joe Biden and released by the White House Friday. “Temporary continued postponement is necessary to protect against identifiable harm to the military defense, intelligence operations, law enforcement, or the conduct of foreign relations that is of such gravity that it outweighs the public interest in immediate disclosure,” Biden wrote. In 1992, Congress ruled that “all Government records concerning the assassination...

Twenty-ninth Week in Ordinary Time Luke 13:1-9 Friends, today’s Gospel includes the parable of a fig tree that bears no fruit. This is a standard trope in the theological literature of Israel: the tree that bears no fruit is evocative of the moral person who bears no spiritual fruit. Every single person has a mission: to be a conduit of the divine grace into the world. Planted in God—think of Jesus’ image of the vine and the branches—they are meant to bring forth the fruits of love, peace, compassion, justice, nonviolence. And notice that this should be effortless. The closer...

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), tangled with two members of the Jan.6 committee on the House floor Thursday, getting into an impromptu shouting match over Black Lives Matter and a wild conspiracy theory about Jewish space lasers starting California wildfires. Greene, a top Trump loyalist, crossed the aisle and approached Reps. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) and Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) as voting began on a resolution holding a former adviser of former President Trump, Stephen Bannon, in contempt for defying panel subpoenas. Greene first pressed Raskin — who led the Democrats’ prosecution of Trump during his impeachment trial after the Jan. 6...

Good news for people who like eating while in motion: Amtrak may be bringing back the beloved dining car. That's right, eating your Whataburger honey butter biscuit behind the wheel is no longer the most glamorous way to eat-on-the-go. Back in the fall of 2019, Amtrak announced that it was getting rid of the classic dining car —the ones with china and flatware on a white tablecloth—in favor of pre-packaged options. This was before the pandemic, so they couldn't use health and safety as an excuse to stave off the inevitable firestorm of criticism. While Amtrak executives may have been...

According to our current Democrat government, all parents who are concerned about their children being indoctrinated by godless Marxist public schools are potential domestic terrorists and must be constantly monitored and surveilled by the FBI and DHS. All taxpayers (personal, business, corporate, etc) who itemize on their tax returns are tax cheats and must be constantly monitored, surveilled and audited by the IRS. All (non-Democrat/socialist) white people are automatically racists and potential domestic terrorists and must be constantly monitored and surveilled by the FBI and DHS and must be re-educated. All veterans and patriots who defend our American founding and...

Hannah Gutierrez has been identified as the armorer or weapons handler on the movie, “Rust.” According to reports, she laid out three guns on the Santa Fe set. One of them wound up killing Halyna Hutchins and wounding director Joel Souza, fired by an unwitting Alec Baldwin. Gutierrez’s LinkedIn page includes a resume note from this past spring and summer working at Yellowstone Film Ranch in Montana from March through June. She described her job there: “Loading firearms with appropriately sized blanks. Ensuring gun safety on set along with instructing actors on how to use their guns.” She is young...

California’s cannabis market is booming nearly five years after voters legalized recreational weed. But there’s a catch: the vast majority of pot sales are still underground. Rather than make cannabis a Main Street fixture, California’s strict regulations have led most industry operators to close shop, flee the state or sell in the state’s illegal market that approaches $8 billion annually, twice the volume of legal sales. Local government opposition, high taxes and competition from unlicensed businesses are complicating California’s push to build a thriving legal market. Many of those factors are baked into California law, including rules allowing city leaders...

The Loudoun County Public Schools superintendent sent an email on May 28 alerting school board members that a sexual assault had been reported. The email came on the same day as the alleged sexual assault that captured the attention of national media earlier this month. "The purpose of this email is to provide you with information regarding an incident that occurred at Stone Bridge HS," Superintendent Scott Ziegler said in the email. "This afternoon a female student alleged that a male student sexually assaulted her in the restroom."

The woman responsible for handling weapons on the set of Alec Baldwin's "Rust" had only recently taken on a gig as a head armorer, and shared she had real doubts about doing the job. Hannah Reed -- daughter of Hollywood armorer Thell Reed -- appeared on the "Voices of the West" podcast last month to talk about her new experiences in the biz. Reed told the hosts she had just wrapped a western movie with Nic Cage called "The Old Way" ... and it was her first time as head armorer on a movie. In a now-eerie confession, Reed says...
