Extension of the vaccine passport in France was approved 158-106 in the French Senate late Thursday. The date for the pass to end is February 28th of next year just six weeks before the Presidential Election's first round in April. The polling continues in that race with incumbent Emmanuel Macron in first place according to polling data published by BFM-TV. He would win the first round at 23 percent of the vote with Marine Le Pen at 19 percent. They would move onto a second round. But the third place candidate turns out to be Eric Zemmour the controversial Jewish...

The Venezuelan government recently lopped off six zeros from its hyperinflating currency, the bolivar. The highest denomination currency note of 1 million bolivars, worth less than $0.25, was replaced by a one-bolivar note. At the same time, a 100-bolivar note, worth about $25.00, was introduced as the new highest denomination of the bolivar. The currency conversion was designed to spare the government the embarrassment of having to issue a 100-million bolivar note to enable people to purchases everyday items without having to carry around bundles of notes, given that the price of a loaf of bread had risen to 7...

The deadline for New York City firefighters to get vaccinated was yesterday. Enforcement of the vaccine mandate is anticipated to begin Monday. Today, the New York Post is reporting that 26 FDNY firehouses are currently closed due to short staffing directly related to the vaccine mandate.

New York – The FDNY shut down 26 firehouses across the Big Apple as of 7:30 a.m. Saturday because of staff shortages caused by the vaccination mandate, The Post has learned. […] “Twenty six companies out of service is an unconscionable number,” said...

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said he expects to see a rise in vaccinations among municipal workers in line with his mandate, telling reporters that the “human reality” is city employees will decide to get the shot rather than face unpaid leave. De Blasio made the remarks during an Oct. 28 press conference, on the eve of a looming Oct. 29 deadline for municipal workers to receive at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, with no testing opt-out, or face being sent home without pay starting Monday, Nov. 1.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention just announced new coronavirus guidelines that said some people, some people with vulnerabilities, some people with compromised immunities, may indeed, should indeed, may very well mightily should indeed get — get this — a fourth shot. ... First came the “two weeks to flatten the curve” argument, the one that turned into, “oh, oops, we meant two years.” ... Then came the “if one face mask is good, two face masks are better” lines of science... Then came U.S. Surgeon General Jerome Adams and his videotaped instructional on how to fabricate a face...

There are times in life when you made a decision, they after announcing it to the world, realized it was a terrible idea. As a politician who is running for office again, who just caused his lead to evaporate overnight, showing up where voters can ask you what you were thinking, might not be a good idea. Former Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe (D), who is running for the job again, has fallen rapidly in the polls due to self-inflicted political wounds. McAuliffe who has stumbled repeatedly on the topic of education — long considered a winning issue for Democrats —...

The CDC hits a new low Alex Berenson 10 hr ago 1,080 (I didn’t think it was possible either.) But yesterday the Centers for Disease Control, America’s not-at-all-politicized public health agency, released a new study purporting to show that vaccination protects against Covid infection better than natural immunity. Of course, a wave of stories about the benefits of mRNA vaccination followed. To do this, the CDC used some magic statistical analysis to turn inside raw data that actually showed almost four times as many fully vaccinated people being hospitalized with Covid as those with natural immunity - and FIFTEEN TIMES...

Cordileone: Rosaries, Roses, & Reptiles“O young Lochinvar is come out of the west”—West Coast, that is.You have likely read the media pas de deux between Nancy Pelosi and her ordinary, Archbishop Cordileone. Forgive me if I am unsympathetic to His Excellency’s current “Rose and Rosary for Nancy” gambit. The sell-by date for talk about killing innocent life in the womb expired in September with passage of the Women’s Health Protection Act of 2021. Once the clock ran out on the utility of words, it was time for canonical action.But the archbishop apparently has no stomach for consequential action, or any...

Los Angeles, CA — Medical professionals who support medical freedom are getting the pink slip across the country for not taking the experimental COVID-19 jabs. One of the most authoritarian hospitals appears to be the UCLA Medical Hospital in California. As Vaccine Impact reported, a person “in a position of high authority at UCLA Medical Hospital in Los Angeles has sent a memo to supervisors instructing them to not only fire all personnel who have not taken a COVID-19 experimental shot, but to wait until they show up for work and are working with their patients, and then to physically...

While attending the World Series, Donald and Melania Trump participated in the Tomahawk Chop. According to Todd Starnes: And there’s no doubt that leftists have been triggered from coast to coast like Phil Newberry, a columnist for Associated Press. “Simply put, the Braves and their co-conspirator are on the wrong side of history, not unlike those who continue to defend the Confederate flag and statues as nothing more than peaceful symbols of Southern heritage,” Newberry wrote. ESPN’s Jeff Passan is one of the far-left sports writers who. has called on MLB to “stop the chop.” “The best part of writing...

“Eleutherios: Free Indeed!” (John 8:31-36) Today, October 31, along with millions of other Christians around the world, we are celebrating Reformation Day. Why? What’s so special about this day? Well, 504 years ago today, on October 31, 1517, Dr. Martin Luther posted his Ninety-five Theses against the sale of indulgences on the door of a church in Wittenberg, Germany. And what Luther did that day started the movement known as the Reformation, which corrected many bad practices that crept into the church. Ever since, we observe the last Sunday in October as Reformation Day, and we thank God for using...

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — From the moment Kyle Rittenhouse shot three people on the streets of Kenosha during protests over the police shooting of a Black man, he’s personified America’s polarization. The 17-year-old from Illinois who carried an AR-style rifle and idolized police was cheered by those who despised the Black Lives Matter movement and the sometimes destructive protests that followed George Floyd’s death. He was championed by pro-gun conservatives who said he was exercising his Second Amendment rights and defending cities from “antifa,” an umbrella term for leftist militants. Others saw him as the most worrisome example yet of...

On February 14, 2020, General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party and Chairman of the Central Military Commission, Xi Jinping, emphasized the need to incorporate biosecurity into China’s national security system. In China, biosecurity is a euphemism for “bio-based war” because so much of Chinese military doctrine is devoted to the offensive use of biotechnology. he 2011 version of “Chinese People’s Liberation Army Military Language” provides the following definition: Biological warfare refers to the use of biological weapons to injure humans and animals and destroy crops. It was formerly called germ warfare. In combat, biological warfare agents are used in...

US intelligence agencies say they may never be able to identify the origins of Covid-19, but they have concluded it was not created as a biological weapon. In an updated assessment of where the virus began, the Office of the US Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) said an animal-to-human transmission and a lab leak were both plausible hypotheses for how it spread. But there was not enough information to reach a definitive conclusion. China has criticized the report. The findings were published in a declassified report which is an update of a 90-day review that President Joe Biden's administration released...
