Dr. Anthony Fauci on Sunday predicted that vaccines for the Chinese coronavirus will be available for babies and toddlers in the first quarter of 2022, adding, “Yeah, we do want to be vaccinating the children

Singapore and Malaysia want "more open borders" even if the new Omicron coronavirus variant disrupts plans to expand the vaccinated travel lane (VTL) between both countries, Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said on Monday (Nov 29). Mr Lee and his Malaysian counterpart Ismail Sabri Yaakob were giving speeches at the Istana on the first day of the land and air VTL between Singapore and Malaysia. Mr Ismail Sabri is on his first official visit to Singapore. Mr Lee said the aim is to expand the land VTL to include general travellers from the middle of December, taking into account...

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — A federal judge on Monday blocked President Joe Biden’s administration from enforcing a coronavirus vaccine mandate on thousands of health care workers in 10 states that had brought the first legal challenge against the requirement. The court order said that the federal Centers for Medicare & Medicaid had no clear authority from Congress to enact the vaccine mandate for providers participating in the two government health care programs for the elderly, disabled and poor. The preliminary injunction by St. Louis-based U.S. District Judge Matthew Schelp applies to a coalition of suing states that includes Alaska,...

President Joe Biden on Monday urged Americans to get vaccinated or get their booster shots amid warnings about the spread of the Omicron variant – but insisted that the infectious new variant was not a cause for 'panic' and said no new restrictions were needed. 'We'll fight this variant with scientific and knowledgeable actions and speed, not chaos and confusion,' Biden said at the White House. But even amid the pressing nature of the new variant, Biden misstated the name of the variant. 'It's called the Omnicron,' he said, inserting an extra 'n' – an error his coronavirus advisor, Dr....

I watched a little of the Kyle Rittenhouse trial last week. There was little to no reporting on the gun-toting terrorists, rioters, looters and arsonists (Antifa, Black Lives Matter, and others) that showed up at Kenosha, WI, two days before Kyle arrived. There was little to no reporting about what some of these people had done to Kenosha in the past, and no law-breakers were being punished. The lies of fake reporters in the mainstream media were drowning out the truth (Kyle didn’t kill even one black person, Kyle is not a white supremacist that went to Kenosha to kill...

Lee Elder, who broke down racial barriers as the first Black golfer to play in the Masters and paved the way for Tiger Woods and others to follow, has died at the age of 87. The PGA Tour announced Elder’s death, which was first reported Monday by Debert Cook of African American Golfers Digest. No cause was given, but the tour confirmed Elder's death with his family. He had been in poor health and wore an oxygen tube beneath his nose when he appeared at the opening of the Masters in April. The tour said he died early Sunday in...

The country’s economic energy, powered by youth since the 1980s, is on the line as birth rates fall to record lows and its population is about to age the fastest in the world. The programme Insight explores whether the one-child family is as good as it gets for China.Zhang Rui and her husband, Qiang Zihe, are an anomaly among their friends in Beijing. The couple, in their late 30s, have two children and want to have a third. “We like children. We rather enjoy raising (them) and watching them grow,” said Zhang, 38. “Having siblings will give them more companionship....

It’s been a little over a week since a career criminal plowed his red Ford Escape SUV through barricades and into the crowd at the Waukesha Christmas Parade, killing six people and injuring dozens. The attack initially seemed like it would be the next major mainstream media storyline – but then Darrell Brooks Jr. was charged with five counts of first-degree intentional homicide and the press has largely lost interest. The tragedy hasn’t resulted in round-the-clock cable news discussion about Brooks’ troubled past or possible motives, and mainstream investigative reporters don’t appear to be searching for clues. "Left-leaning media outlets...

Desperate Democrats are looking at the “nuclear option” to boot Kamala Harris from the White House. This is no surprise. Without question, Her Vice Fraudulency is the biggest failure of a vice presidential pick since Spiro Agnew in 1972. Harris epitomizes an identity hire, the choice of skin color and gender over competence. Harris was such a terrible presidential candidate, she dropped out before even a single vote was taken. She dropped out before Marianne Williamson. Biden only chose her as a cheap and easy way to “make history” with the pick of the first woman and the first black...

Despite the fact that Kyle Rittenhouse was acquitted of all charges, leftist student organizations are working to get him banned from campus. Kyle Rittenhouse was acquitted of all charges in the shootings that left two dead and a third injured in Kenosha, Wisconsin, last year amid the Black Lives Matter (BLM) riots, but those facts are irrelevant to left-wing students who want him banned from Arizona State University campus where he is enrolled. Led by Students for Socialism, four groups plan to rally Wednesday for Rittenhouse’s removal. The 18-year-old enrolled for classes in October and plans to continue his studies...

The media’s blatant lies amount to racial arson. Both Wisconsin towns, Kenosha, and Waukesha, about 50 miles apart by car, were the recent sites of multiple deaths. The violence in both made national news. Yet in contradictory ways both reflected the common themes of America’s current legal, media, and societal corruption. The relevant public prosecutors in both were in the news for alleged ideological bias. Specifically, they habitually calibrated the charging, indicting, and trying (or not) of defendants through ideological lenses and community pressure rather than on the basis of the facts and the law. Kyle Rittenhouse was a...

Many Hoosiers are still dealing with having to repay the state for overpaid COVID relief money. You may recall that the state gave out more COVID relief from the federal government than it was supposed to Hoosiers. In order to make up for the lost funds, the state is requested that Hoosiers pay that money back.

Brian May voiced concerns over the cancel culture movement, saying he believed some changes to society were being made “without thinking of the long-term consequences.” The guitarist illustrated his point by imagining a scenario of Queen trying to find success in the modern world. “I’m sure… we would be forced to have people of different colours and different sexes and a trans person – but life doesn't have to be like that,” May told the U.K.’s ITV network (via multiple sources). “We can be separate and different. Our generation made a lot of mistake, but not everybody in our generation...

Virginia Roberts Giuffre, one of Epstein's victims that was allegedly in his sex trafficking ring, came forward to ABC News about the allegations and was allegedly interviewed by anchor Amy Robach in 2016. The trial of Ghislaine Maxwell, the accomplice of convicted child sex trafficker and pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, is set to begin on Monday, therefore it's worth resurfacing reports that ABC News intentionally killed the story after having details on Epstein for three years before he was ousted. Virginia Roberts Giuffre, one of Epstein's victims that was allegedly in his sex trafficking ring, came forward to ABC News about...

President Biden said Monday that his administration was not recommending further restrictions on businesses or in-person gatherings to combat the coronavirus pandemic amid concerns about the new omicron variant. Speaking from the Roosevelt Room, Biden described vaccinations as the best possible tool to defeat the virus and any emerging variants. He said his administration would outline a strategy to combat COVID-19 during the winter months later this week. “On Thursday, I'll be putting forward a detailed strategy outlining how we're going to fight COVID this winter, not with shutdowns or lockdowns but with more widespread vaccinations, boosters, testing and more,”...

Over the weekend, the British public were lied to once again by the very people they should be able to trust, after they were told by both palliative care doctor Rachel Clarke, and national medical director of NHS England Professor Stephen Powis, that 75% of those in intensive care with Covid-19 are people who have chosen not to be vaccinated.Dr Rachel Clarke, or Doctor Oxford as she also likes to be known, is an NHS palliative care doctor and author of the book ‘Breathtaking’, published in January 2021, which alleges to reveal what life was really like working on NHS...

It's beginning to look a lot like a pandemic-era Christmas at the White House. Officials have been scrambling to determine the best way of handling the typically buzzing party schedule in the executive mansion given the threat from the new omicron variant of the coronavirus, according to sources familiar with the deliberations. White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki acknowledged earlier this month, weeks before the omicron variant made headlines, that the holidays would “look a little bit different,” this year, when asked about whether it had been determined if the usual receptions and galas could be safely held.

The Dallas Cowboys are 7-4, well on their way to a division title and playoff berth. But they’ll need to push forward for at least the next game without their head coach and several other members of the team as they’ve all tested positive for Covid-19 despite being “fully vaccinated.” According to NBC Sports: Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy has tested positive for COVID-19, according to ESPN. He will miss the Cowboys’ Thursday night game against the Saints. The report says there may be up to eight positive cases within the Cowboys organization. Offensive line coach Joe Philbin and assistant line...

The US Defense Department is allegedly threatening to ‘decertify’ the Oklahoma National Guard after its commander, on approval of the state commander-in-chief, Governor Kenny Stitt, issued an order instructing his troops that they will not be required to comply with Biden’s Covid-19 vaccine mandate.On November 12th, The Oklahoman posted some background on the situation. They wrote that the head of the Oklahoma National Guard, new Adjutant General Thomas Mancino, updated the guard’s Covid-19 vaccine policy, stating that no members would be required to get the jab. This information was shared in a memo which was obtained by The Oklahoman, noting...
