Covid skeptics across the country are speaking out about many irregularities with the so-called “Omicron Variant.” It came out of nowhere at a very convenient time with Big Pharma apparently already prepared to use it to print more money and force more jabs onto people. It’s being touted as potentially more infectious and virulent than previous variants. All the while, we still have nothing but authoritarian responses to its sudden emergence. U.S. Representative Ronnie Jackson (R-TX) has a better name for it than “Omicron”: “Here comes the MEV – the Midterm Election Variant! They NEED a reason to push unsolicited...

Democrats now assert their bailout of multiemployer union pension plans in March's American Rescue Plan Act was deeply flawed and are demanding the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) rescue multiemployer union pension plans from the act's botched rescue. Democrats' admission this bailout will cost much more than advertised should raise concerns about the real costs of the third massive bill they are rushing to enact this year with new social spending schemes. The American Rescue Plan Act provided an $86 billion "taxpayer bailout" to some multiemployer union pension plans, according to the Congressional Budget Office, but not enough to make...

(CNSNews.com) - President and Mrs. Biden attended a "friendsgiving" celebration at Fort Bragg on Monday evening, giving brief remarks before the meal was served. First lady Jill Biden spoke first, then introduced her husband, who joked, "I'm Jill Biden's husband Joe Biden, as you can see. I continue to follow her." (Indeed he does follow her. At the conclusion of Joe's remarks, he wondered "where am I supposed to go?" looking to his wife for direction. More on that below.) Evidently at a loss without prepared remarks, Biden told the troops about his wife -- and Valentine's Day. The anecdote...

All Israelis required to quarantine for at least 3 days, undergo 2 PCR tests after return to Israel. Those returning from "red" countries will be quarantined in hotels. Israel's Coronavirus Cabinet on Saturday night approved the restrictions recommended by Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett and Health Minister Nitzan Horowitz (Meretz). During the meeting, the staff of experts presented its position, according to which the COVID-19 vaccinations are more important than ever, in order to prevent severe illness. In accordance with this, the Cabinet members call on Israeli citizens who have not yet received their booster dose to do so as...

Just a heads up on a new (to me) scam. Got a robo-call today allegedly from Amazon. Something about suspicious activity on my account. Ok, I pushed the button to talk to a real person. A guy comes on the line and asks if I was purchasing an iPhone 11. I of course said no. (I'm an Android guy) He said fine, the purchase would be denied. (this is a key part of the scam) I had him on speaker phone and went to my Amazon account. There was no record of an iPhone purchase. Now he claimed they had...

The Ukrainian president called on Vladimir Putin to publicly deny that he was preparing an invasion yesterday, saying Russia was sending “very dangerous signals”. President Zelensky, 43, also made the extraordinary claim that he believed a coup attempt was being planned for December 1 in Ukraine, with the involvement of Russian citizens and the country’s richest man. The remarks came amid continuing concerns in the West over the alleged build-up of almost 100,000 Russian troops on Ukraine’s borders. Moscow warned that suggestions of an invasion plan were “a provocation”. President Zelensky told journalists in Kiev: “We believe that very dangerous...

And Elijah said unto all the people, Come near unto me. And all the people came near unto him. And he repaired the altar of the Lord that was broken down. And Elijah took twelve stones, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Jacob, unto whom the word of the Lord came, saying, Israel shall be thy name: And with the stones he built an altar in the name of the Lord: and he made a trench about the altar, as great as would contain two measures of seed. And he put the wood in order,...

Sam Nunberg, former aide to President Trump, said the former president is “certainly, certainly considering” a presidential run and said he personally believes he will, telling Breitbart News Saturday that Trump must “look forward” despite everything that occurred in the last presidential election.

Thirty-fourth Week in Ordinary Time Luke 21:34-36 Friends, in today’s Gospel, Jesus urges us to watch and pray as we await his coming again. In one sense, Christianity is a religion of fulfillment (the Lord has come), but in another sense, it is a religion of waiting, for we expect the Second Coming of Jesus in the fullness of his power. We wait and watch and keep vigil. And this is difficult. But what we all know is that great things take time. For example, when a woman becomes pregnant, she has to wait nine long months before the baby...

A recent poll shows that nine out of ten most popular governors in the United States are Republicans while President Biden’s approval rating is lower than the country’s least popular governor. Vermont Republican Phil Scott is the most popular governor in America and holds a 71% approval rating, according to a recent Morning Consult poll that shows Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont as the only Democrat to register in the top 10.

"All lives matter."We live in such a bizarro world that such a statement is now considered absolutely taboo to express. That was probably the reason why when the father of Ahmaud Arbery, following the jury verdicts in his son's murder, stated "all lives matter" with Al Sharpton hovering over his shoulder as witness, it had to be quickly dealt with. And the way Newsweek handled the "heresy" of Marcus Arbery was to absurdly claim that we really didn't hear him say what we plainly heard him say.

It has been a rough season — COVID, political fights, racial protests, increased violent crime — and no one is immune. Not even a superstar celebrity like Denzel Washington. So, what has he been during these trying times? Praying. Now he's sharing what he has been praying about, what God is revealing to him, and what he believes others should be doing if they want to find true success and peace. What did Denzel say? At "The Better Man Event," a Christian convention for men, in Orlando, Florida, last weekend, Washington spoke to tens of thousands of attendees. In a...

The new COVID-19 omicron variant is posing new risks for the American people as President Biden and his administration attempt to control the spread of a virus he vowed to "shut down" during the 2020 campaign. The omicron variant, according to World Health Organization (WHO) officials, has a large number of mutations, "some of which are concerning."

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott promised residents in the Lone Star state that the "lights will stay on" this winter following a near collapse of the state's electrical system last February.

A New Jersey couple mysteriously vanished after venturing into the Pine Barrens. Gary Parker, 67, and his wife Lorraine, 60, of Warren Grove, N.J., drove into the protected wilderness reserve that covers more than a million acres — but didn’t return, according to reports

Dr. Peter McCullough, a cardiologist, internist, and epidemiologist, has been a steadfast advocate for alternative Covid treatments like hydroxychloroquine. He joined Stew Peters to discuss natural immunity, the spike protein in Covid injections, the harm and deaths caused by Covid injections and called for an immediate halt to the Covid injection programme.“If [someone] has already had Covid-19 the illness, and it is a well-documented case that, their immunity is robust, complete and durable” Dr. Peter McCullough said, meaning it is robust against all the variants and it is complete. The Covid injections only give antibodies to one protein. Natural immunity...
