We reported earlier about the problems at Joe Biden’s bill signing earlier today.As we noted, he started the event 40 minutes late.

This was despite him demanding yesterday that everyone wear masks to help fight the Omicron variant, saying if everyone wore masks and got vaccinated, he wouldn’t have to talk about lockdowns.Maybe he needs to have a conversation with himself? Not only did he keep taking the mask down when he wanted to speak to people, but he also kept adjusting it and touching his face....

A Temple City-based COVID-19 testing firm that contracts with Los Angeles County vehemently denied allegations Tuesday by Sheriff Alex Villanueva that the company shares patient DNA data with the Chinese government, a concern that prompted the sheriff to announce his department will no longer use the county’s chosen testing provider. “Fulgent is an American company, and its founder, board of directors and leadership team is made up of United States citizens,” Fulgent Genetics Chief Commercial Officer Brandon Perthuis said in a statement Tuesday. “Fulgent Genetics operates privately and independently in the People’s Republic of China and does not share personal...

Sometimes, it is good to be Pfizer — especially when there is a pandemic they can leverage to their advantage to create a monopolistic market-share of a vaccine that government literally buys from them and markets to patients, or when they can manipulate the government into protecting their data for another half-century. Other times, it isn’t so good to be Pfizer, as was the case with Project Veritas’ story which showed Pfizer employees contradicting the government’s vaccine narrative.And yet other times, Pfizer runs into a situation so dire, it could destroy their business for a decade to come. In pharmaceuticals,...

The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania on Tuesday reinstated the Gov. Tom Wolf administration mandate requiring students, teachers and staff to wear face masks. The action is temporary, with the court scheduled to hear arguments on the matter on Dec. 8 and decides its fate. The court noted it has taken no position; one justice disagreed with reinstating the mandate. Acting state Secretary of Health Alison Beam, at the direction of the governor, had imposed the state-wide mandate at the start of the school year after most school districts failed to adopt policies mandating masks at the start of the school...

Nov 30 (Reuters) – The Biden administration was blocked from enforcing two mandates requiring millions of American workers to get vaccinated against COVID. U.S. District Judge Terry Doughty in Monroe, Louisiana, temporarily blocked the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) from enforcing its vaccine mandate for healthcare workers until the court can resolve legal challenges. Doughty’s ruling applied nationwide, except in 10 states where the CMS was already prevented from enforcing the rule due to a prior order from a federal judge in St. Louis. Doughty said the CMS lacked the authority to issue a vaccine mandate that would...

A man saw something out of a nightmare when a deep sea monster washed up on a San Diego beach. According to KGTV, Jay Beiler was walking on Black's Beach on Nov. 13 when he spotted a scary-looking fish he thought was a jellyfish. A closer look revealed it was a Pacific footballfish – a fish that lives in the Pacific Ocean at depths of 2,000 to 3,300 feet where sunlight doesn't penetrate, according to the California Academy of Sciences. They have needle-sharp teeth that point inward, and some male footballfish attach themselves to females as "sexual parasites," losing all...

One video, which you can watch below, shows students locked inside a classroom — when suddenly someone knocks on the door. “Sheriff’s office,” the voice said. “It’s safe to come out.” Someone inside the classroom wisely told the officer they were not willing to take that risk. The “officer” then told students, “Okay, well open the door and look at my badge,...

New guidance from the government, states that from the 29th November (2021), children in year 7 and above should wear face coverings in all communal areas in all education settings, unless they are exempt. Students in year 7 or above should also continue to wear face coverings on public and school transport, again, unless they are exempt.Many teachers may have been more interested in watching their colleagues, dressed to the nines, minus face coverings, enjoying their activity, and missed the talk of plans to disrupt the education, wellbeing, and activities of the children they teach.Teachers across the UK celebrated each...

There’s nothing that screams potential conflict of interest like a major newspaper’s owner getting millions in subsidies from the federal government it's supposed to be objectively covering. The New York Times reported that part of President Joe Biden’s “Build Back Better” (BBB) catastrophe includes funneling nearly $1.7 billion into local news outlets. Guess what? One of the recipients listed in The Times report was none other than Gannett, the publishing company that owns liberal newspaper USA Today. The Times said that Gannett, “the largest newspaper chain in the country, could receive $37.5 million the first year and tens of millions...
