Two hundred forty-one million people, 97,000 villages. Everybody tested positive was treated with Ivermectin, the household members were given Ivermectin to prevent spread, and all of the health care workers on Ivermectin. And by doing that, over the many months after that surge in May, they found that in September, they started to report they’d effectively eradicated disease.

The apoplectic response to Joe Manchin’s rebuke of Biden’s Build Back Better deal in general, and specifically, their reaction to losing the climate change agenda within it, points toward the original intent of COVID-19 in the first place. In this tweet, communist stenographer and narrative engineer Sam Stein (Politico/MSNBC) says the quiet part out loud: Point One – The “Build Back Better” agenda was never about anything except radical climate change legislation. Once you accept that, now admitted, baseline, things start to become much clearer. Point Two – The “Build Back Better” phrase came from the World Economic Forum and...

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Cori Bush, and other members of the progressive squad assailed Sen. Joe Manchin after the centrist Democrat from West Virginia said he would not support President Biden's Build Back Better plan. 'Our entire democracy is on the line,' Ocasio-Cortez tweeted on Sunday. 'We, as always, are here to fight for this agenda. What matters most to us is that it gets done. But we cannot just shrug our shoulders and accept this as some Charlie Brown moment. So we need to get back in there and get this s*** done. Period.' She then called on Majority Leader Chuck...

A photo of Boris Johnson, his wife and 17 staff members in the Downing Street garden with bottles of wine and a cheese board shows them having a "work meeting", No 10 has said. The Guardian, which published the image, says the gathering took place in May 2020, after a press conference held during the first lockdown. At the time, there were strict restrictions on mixing. No 10 said work meetings often took place outside during summer months. Deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab told BBC Breakfast: "If you think how hard [people in Downing Street] are working under the pressure...

Elections matter. It shows in the sometimes not so subtle changes that surface unintended consequences. The shift to the left with President Joe Biden taking office and both houses of Congress narrowly in control by the Democrats is impacting our country in a profoundly negative way. The takers in our society are emboldened and are grabbing at all they can get. In metropolitan areas, we are seeing well organized mobs storming high-end stores, grabbing merchandise, fleeing, and openly selling their stolen goods. In Washington and state capitols, the progressive takers are demanding more and more free services and subsidies. All...

Stock futures tumbled Monday and global shares dropped amid a surge in Covid-19 cases and as President Joe Biden’s $2 trillion tax-and-spending package looked dead after Sen. Joe Manchin said he wouldn’t support the plan. Contracts linked to the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 350 points, or 1%, S&P 500 futures declined 1.1% and Nasdaq futures were down 1.23%. Futures came off earlier lows after Moderna (ticker: MRNA) said a booster dose of its Covid-19 vaccine increased neutralizing antibody levels against the Omicron variant. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note was at 1.385% after falling Friday to 1.401%, the...

It is absolutely clear to me now, with the idiotic and groundless fake panic over “omicron,” which is killing no one, that this is the “crisis” our ruling elites have been waiting for. The insanity of Americam and the Western world is the great sadness of my old age. It is absolutely clear to me now, with the idiotic and groundless fake panic over “omicron,” which is killing no one, that this is the “crisis” our ruling elites have been waiting for; and they will not let go of it. The disproportionality between the enormous and incalculable economic, psychological, educational,...

Two elected officials—from different parts of America—emerged this weekend as the kind of patriots which are in too short supply these days…but both offered a ray of hope for our future.First, Senator Joe Manchin of West Virginia just earned the thanks of every right-thinking man, woman, and child in America. Because on Sunday, Manchin essentially killed the ridiculous, bloated and unnecessary $2-trillion grab-bag of ultraLeftist spending scams called Joe Biden’s “Build Back Better” plan.(By the way, like so much of Biden’s past career…he plagiarized the “Build Back Better” terminology from British prime minister Boris Johnson…who early in 2020 unveiled a...

In a just and sensible America, Victor Davis Hanson would be chair of the history department at Harvard, teaching a mandatory and beloved course in the history of Western Civilization, to be followed in undergraduates’ sophomore year by his equally popular year-long course in American history, both of which would be emulated nationwide by most if not all American colleges and universities. These courses would be fact intensive, and unlike the rather hagiographic picture students like this writer received during the 50’s, would not only emphasize the achievements of America and the West, but would honestly and rationally confront their...

Pecan trees can grow as tall as 100 feet with a productive life of 40 years. But 40 is average. In 2017, Fort Leavenworth, Kansas became home to a “champion” pecan tree – one of the nation’s tallest and oldest. Recorded by Lewis and Clark as a “tall tree” in 1804 during their explorations along a river near the present site of Fort Leavenworth, this tree is over 200 years old and towers to 130 feet. My grandmother’s pecan tree in Charlotte, N.C. stood about 40 feet tall when I was growing up in the ’60s. When she bought the...

Ohio HB227 passed the Ohio House, 60 to 32, on November 23, 2021. Now, less than a month later, on December 15, the Senate passed a very similar bill. SB 215. From cleveland.com: COLUMBUS, Ohio — The Ohio Senate could vote as soon as Wednesday on legislation to allow people to carry a concealed handgun without a permit and no longer require them to notify law enforcement during proactively traffic stops that they’re armed.Senate Bill 215 cleared a Senate committee on Tuesday after hours of testimony, mostly in opposition to the measure. The Republican-sponsored bill comes after the Ohio House...

If there’s one thing leftists are good at, it’s projection and their focus on January 6 perfectly illustrates that fact. Why do the Elite harbor this fevered obsession with Jan 6? For two reasons: (1) It is their magic fetish waved about in the desperate hope of warding off the return of Trumpism (with or without Trump) to the Casa Alba. (2) It reflects their habitual projection of their own evil onto the seething mass of deplorables. Precisely what is this evil they are projecting? In a word: treason. The US Constitution defines treason in Article III, Section 3, Clause...

The annual get-together of world leaders, billionaires and influential executives in the Swiss Alpine town of Davos will be postponed due to health and safety concerns over Covid-19.

Our country needs a Savior and our country has a Savior...that's NOT ME, that's somebody much higher up than me! President Donald J. Trump joined Pastor Robert Jeffress at First Baptist Dallas today.

Despite abundant evidence showing Epps and others enticing people into the Capitol, the FBI, DOJ, and January 6 committee are disinterested in them. The House’s Soviet-style January 6 committee continues its unsuccessful efforts to tie Donald Trump, people in his administration, Republican congresspeople, and Fox News personalities to the events on that day. What they’re ignoring as they try to destroy their political enemies is those people caught on tape actively encouraging the crowd to breach the Capitol. The most notable of these people is one Ray Epps but he’s not the only one. The Revolver has an extensive exposé...

In a July tweet poll that - given its mere 5,248 respondents - was almost certainly massively suppressed by Twitter, Republican Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie asked the following question: “Legalities aside, which is more immoral? (1) Subjugating people to second-class status because they haven’t been vaccinated, or (2) carrying a fake vaccine card to subvert the subjugation? Which is more unethical?” Given Massie’s conservative and libertarian audience, it’s no surprise that 91.5% of those respondents felt that the first option was more unethical than the second. However, several who disagreed with Massie’s premise were quick to express their thoughts in...

Leftist candidate Gabriel Boric has won Chile's presidential election to become the country's youngest ever leader. In what was expected to be a tight race, the 35-year-old former protest leader defeated his far-right rival José Antonio Kast by 10 points. Mr Boric told supporters he would look after democracy, promising curbs on Chile's neoliberal economic model. He will lead a country that has been rocked in recent years by mass protests against inequality and corruption. Mr Boric's victory prompted celebrations on the streets of the capital Santiago, with his supporters waving flags and honking car horns. In his speech, Mr...
