...On 10/20, the White House, in anticipation of FDA approval, released details of its plans to have kids vaccinated through pediatricians' offices, hospitals and other locations. Previously, the White House had told governors to start preparing to vaccinate children as young as 5 by early November. Administration officials said they had purchased 65 million pediatric doses of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, enough to vaccinate all 28 million children who would become eligible if the FDA approves the shots for children between the ages of 5 and 11 when it meets to consider the issue. An FDA advisory committee endorsed giving kids...

The Facebook CEO planted left-wing activists into local election administration offices, Hemingway tells Tucker Fox News contributor Mollie Hemingway sat down with Tucker Carlson to discuss how Big Tech swung the 2020 election for the Democrats, and why her new book "Rigged" exposes Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg as the mastermind behind it all. In the latest episode of "Tucker Carlson Today," Hemingway describes a strategic effort by the tech billionaire, who she says bought left-wing activists access to local government administration election offices, enabling partisan staffers to organize massive get-out-the-vote efforts in largely blue cities from the inside.... ...

Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wy.) is one of several Republicans blasting Fox News Media for a promotional video teasing an upcoming episode of leading host Tucker Carlson's mini-series "Tucker Carlson originals." The episode, which will only be broadcast on Fox Nation, the company's paid streaming service, is set to be published in three parts next month and examines the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol and purports to tell "the true story behind 1/6." "The helicopters have left Afghanistan and now they've landed here at home," Carlson is seen saying on the promotional video. "They've begun to fight a new...

NOAA issued a G3, or "strong" geomagnetic storm watch, for Saturday and Sunday ahead of the flare slamming into the Earth. The scale for geomagnetic storms runs from G1, or minor storm, to G5, an extreme storm. This geomagnetic storm could cause voltage irregularities and false alarms on some protection devices, NOAA warns. It also could cause high frequency radio blackouts and loss of radio contact on the sunlit side of the earth. The most visible effect from the impending geomagnetic storm is it will likely supercharge the aurora borealis, making it visible across large parts of the US and...

On this date in 1651, three days after the Irish city Limerick surrendered to a withering five-month Parliamentarian siege, the victors hanged Bishop Terence Albert O’Brien on Gallows Green. Limerick was the southern stronghold of the Catholic and anti-Parliamentarian Confederate Ireland. It was this polity, which allied itself to English Royalists, that Cromwell assailed in his bloody conquest of Ireland. Though Cromwell lives forever as an oath in Irish memory, the man himself left Ireland in 1650 to smash an awkward Royalist alliance with Scottish Presbyterians. That left the Irish campaign in the hands of Cromwell’s capable fellow-general (and by...

Republican Senator Rand Paul has questions about the federal government, more specifically Dr. Anthony Fauci, funding grants to torture beagles to death. "We write to express deep concern about recent reports of inhumane experiments on league puppies conducted by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) at a cost to taxpayers of $1.68 million," Paul and a number of other Senators wrote in a letter to Fauci Friday afternoon. "One article reported that in addition to 'force-feeding or injecting 44 beagle puppies aged 6-8 months old with an experiments drug before killing and dissecting them,' the research also...

@newsmax "To me, it sounds more like torture than research," Sen. @RandPaul on the taxpayer-funded Beagle experiment headed by Dr. Fauci. Clip...

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. It’s “almost” like Clueless Joe™ Biden and his equally clueless administration are trying to destroy everything from the demographics of America — that’s a given — to parents’ faith in their kids’ schools to the entire U.S. economy. Only this time it could not be more clear. Amid soaring gas prices, White House National Climate Advisor Gina McCarthy on Thursday announced that the Biden administration is going to increase regulations on the oil industry: “There’s a place for” regulation and “We’re going to use it,” McCarthy said during an appearance on...

Nearly half the nation believes that COVID-19 czar Anthony Fauci lied about funding virus testing in China, and almost as many want him dumped from the post he’s held for 37 years. In the latest Rasmussen Reports survey, 49% said he has not told the truth about U.S. funding for “gain-of-function” research. When asked if he should be forced to resign as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, 46% said yes and 40% said no. The survey followed the recent release of a memo suggesting the United States supported and funded virus testing in China, where...

With President Biden succumbing to the CIA’s demand to continue keeping the CIA’s records relating to the Kennedy assassination secret, the question naturally arises: What is the CIA still hiding? (See my blog post of yesterday entitled “Surprise! Biden Continues the CIA’s JFK Assassination Cover-Up.”) To understand what they are still hiding and why they are still hiding it, it’s necessary to go back to the 1990s during the era of the Assassination Records Review Board — and even further back than that to November 22, 1963 — the day that Kennedy was assassinated. People often say that if the...

Britain was last night preparing to retaliate after a UK trawler was detained by France amid fears the fishing row could spark a full-blown trade war. The Government accused the French of breaking international law and France's ambassador to London will be hauled in today to face questioning. Foreign Secretary Liz Truss said French ambassador Catherine Colonna would be expected to attend the Foreign Office 'to explain the disappointing and disproportionate threats made against the UK and Channel Islands'.... ...French ministers warned this week they will block British boats from some French ports and tighten checks on vessels travelling between...

Police are set to take prosecution action against 'a number of individuals' following another anti-lockdown protest staged at the Auckland Domain on Saturday. According to police around 5000 people gathered in the Domain in breach of Alert Level 3 restrictions. The group then marched to Newmarket and back "causing significant disruption to traffic in the area". Auckland City District Commander Superintendent Shanan Gray said police were "extremely disappointed" with the actions of the group. "While those in attendance generally conducted themselves in a calm manner, the gathering was a significant breach of COVID-19 Alert Level 3 requirements" "We recognize that...

Some politicians speak about the “pandemic of the unvaccinated.” But fully vaccinated individuals can harbour high viral loads, spread SARS-CoV-2 and cause severe and fatal Covid-19, also among other fully vaccinated individuals. Social cohesion should not be jeopardized because of an erroneous and narrow view of the epidemiological situation.At the beginning of the pandemic, large numbers of Covid-19 patients in China (79.8%) felt discriminated against. They were seen as a threat to others. Once the vaccination became available, they were less frequently seen as a threat presumably because the vaccinated felt safe (1).Currently, however, unvaccinated people are increasingly being blamed...

This cat’s got nine lives. Feline-friendly GOP mayoral candidate Curtis Sliwa — who once survived a botched alleged mob takedown — was hit by a cab Friday, breaking his left arm, but still proceeded on his way to a radio show before going for treatment at Lenox Hill Hospital, the pol and his wife said. “As I was running here to fulfill the hour that I had purchased for this expose on Eric Adams, I was hit by the cab driver, thrust about 6 feet in the air right outside Rockefeller Center, where the Rockettes perform,” Sliwa said on WABC...

When the test showed that Mariah Armonta was pregnant, she immediately knew she couldn't go through with it. The Abilene, Texas-based mom already has three children at home that she takes care of by herself, and she had only just gone back to work as an in-home senior caregiver in April after her now-9-month-old daughter's arrival. "My first thought is, I can't have this baby. I can't have another baby. I have three already and I do it by myself, and it's hard. I don't want to keep doing this by myself," Armonta, 25, tells PEOPLE. "And I barely started...

During the first Virginia gubernatorial debate in mid-September, Democratic nominee Terry McAuliffe assured voters he would not question the election results if he lost. He may not have meant it, though. On Thursday, five days before the Virginia elections, it was reported that McAuliffe has hired election attorney and liberal activist Marc Elias. As law professor Jonathan Turley pointed out, this suggests McAuliffe may be preparing to challenge the election results should his Republican opponent, Glenn Youngkin, win. As I referred to Elias in April, he's "the gift that keeps on giving." At the time he was mocked over a...

COVID-19 vaccines are better in terms of protection than so-called natural immunity, according to a new Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) study.Researchers with the health agency used data from a CDC-funded network of hospitals and attempted to estimate the odds of contracting COVID-19.They formed two groups: one with people who had been fully vaccinated with no documentation of previous COVID-19 infection and one with people who had not received a vaccine but had recovered from the disease. Both groups met the criteria if they tested positive for COVID-19, were hospitalized with a COVID-19-like illness between January and September,...

News AnalysisTo read the headlines, you’d think the verdict was in.On Oct. 26, the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA’s) Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee recommended the approval of Pfizer-BioNTech’s RNA COVID-19 vaccine for children 5-11, under an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA).On Oct. 29, the FDA issued an emergency authorization based on the committee’s recommendation.Still, a few small steps remain before vaccines reach a kindergarten near you.A Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) advisory panel needs to carry out their own vote on giving kids the vaccine for COVID-19, the disease caused by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)...

The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday rejected an emergency request by health care workers seeking a religious exemption to the state of Maine’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate. The court’s decision not to grant the immediate relief for the health care workers until it decides to review the case, means the state’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate will take effect while litigation continues in lower courts. The Supreme Court did not explain its action—typical in emergency appeals. But three conservative-leaning justices provided a dissenting opinion saying they would have granted the emergency request. Maine is not offering a religious exemption to its COVID-19 mandate...
