When American mayors, governors and others wanted their populations to submit to COVID-19 lockdown and other orders, they were faced with what they perceived as an obstacle: those individuals who simply would not follow orders.Now, in the state of New York, a proposal is being prepared for lawmakers to consider that would resolve that dispute.A plan prefiled for the coming legislature would allow authorities to simply determine who they wanted locked up – and then lock them up.The idea, cast as a "public health law," is being prepared for the 2021-2022 legislature.It would allow the governor or his appointee to...

Take your vaccine like they tell you. Do not ask questions. Just follow orders. This one graphic shows everything you need to know. This is one of the reasons why nobody wants to talk to me. ... The graphic is from a paper which was published in April 24, 2017: Pilot comparative study on the health of vaccinated and unvaccinated 6- to 12- year old U.S. children The point of this article is that the COVID vaccines are not the first unsafe vaccine. We’ve been doing this for years. The COVID vaccines are simply the latest manifestation of a problem...

Joe Biden’s presidency is in trouble. This past weekend, it was abruptly torpedoed by Senator Joe Manchin – live on Fox News. The U.S. President’s signature piece of legislation is – was – the so-called Build Back Better bill. It’s been pitched as the most ambitious overhaul of American social policy since Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s New Deal of the 1930s, and Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society of the 1960s. The New Deal’s legacy is programs such as Social Security (more generous than the Canada Pension Plan, and created decades earlier); the Great Society’s legacies include Medicare and Medicaid – health insurance...

Preface: I am not looking for medical advice or help in decision making. Just venting and hoping to get an idea of how other folks in my situation are making out or how they are preparing. So… my job has a strict vaccine mandate that is set to start Jan 4th. Basically, if I don’t load my card into the HR system which collects these, I will be fired from my job on Jan 5th… no severance. My religious exemption, originally approved at first, was ultimately denied, and they are not allowing exemptions for remote workers (like me), nor periodic...

Venables This week we reported on “The Reveal” that was released by Ivy McLemore, a sophomoric website claiming that Bitcoin was started by a man named James Bilal Kahil Caan. We called a PROPAGANDA ALERT and informed our audience that this is just more CIA disinformation...

CNN's New Day Tuesday morning mocked Joe Manchin's statement explaining that as a West Virginian, he couldn't be intimidated into supporting Build Back Better. New Day aired a clip of Manchin saying: "Well, guess what? I'm from West Virginia. I'm not from where they're from. And they can just beat the living crap out of people, and think they'll be submissive." Co-host John Berman led the charge, saying: "You know I always love it when someone says, I'm from West Virginia, we don't back down to anything. People from all 50 states will say that."Get the rest of the story...

The initial handling of allegations by actor Jussie Smollett who staged a fake attack in Chicago was a “major failure” by the local prosecutor’s office, according to a damning investigative report released Monday. The 60-page report by special prosecutor Dan Webb, who was appointed to review the case, detailed several instances when Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx and others in her office made false statements in 2019 when they first prosecuted Smollett and then abruptly dropped the charges weeks later. Foxx lied about having cut off contact with Smollett’s younger sister, Jurnee Smollett, after learning the actor had become...

A dean at San Diego State University has called out the “Right’s agenda” on Twitter, accusing conservatives of supporting racism and standing against equality.

This is a dense book. 450 pages long. Here are some methods for getting the gist of it in minutes. Yup, I know… It’s a long, dense book full of facts and evidence. Methods to get the gist of the book quickly: The first third shows that Fauci is the leader of the largest cabal of organized crime thugs to have ever walked the face of Earth. The middle third goes into more detail about the history of establishment of Fauci's criminal cabal. The final third ties together loose ends with more details and factual history. The overriding theme is...

WASHINGTON, Friday, Dec. 20. If any correspondence has taken place between Lord Lyons and Secretary SEWARD, it has been of an informal and confidential character, as no official communications have passed between them with reference to the Trent affair. LATER. -- Lord LYONS had an interview with our Government to-day, in which the Trent affair was informally talked over. The official dispatches of her Majesty's Government have not yet been presented, but the impression so generally prevails that there is no danger of war with England, that the interest in the subject has in a great degree subsided. The dispatches...

President Joe Biden’s disastrous economic agenda has set the U.S. economy on a collision course, so what does CNN do? The network pinned blame on older Americans. CNN released a ridiculous story headlined, “The data that shows Boomers are to blame for the labor shortage.” The story suggested that “Early retirement — whether forced by the pandemic or made possible otherwise — is having a huge impact on the labor market. And data show that retiring boomers, far more than ‘lazy’ millennials, are the biggest force behind the labor shortage.” But as Washington Post columnist Marc Thiessen pointed out Oct....

In addition to the usual control gate (red) there is also a program gate (blue). Credit: TU Wien Revolutionary new electronic components can be adapted to perform very different tasks – a technology perfectly suited for artificial intelligence. Normally, computer chips consist of electronic components that always do the same thing. In the future, however, more flexibility will be possible: New types of adaptive transistors can be dynamically switched during run-time to perform different logical tasks. This fundamentally changes the possibilities of chip design and opens up completely new opportunities in the field of artificial intelligence, neural networks or even...

Not Lovin' It Fast-food restaurants make some of our favorite guilty pleasures, many of which have reached iconic status. But it takes a lot of experimenting to score a hit the likes of the Big Mac, Whopper, or Frosty. Whether they missed the mark on taste, customer enthusiasm, or something else, here are some of the biggest fast-food flops from the past few decades, including a burger that's getting a second chance to impress math-challenged Americans.

President Joe Biden will announce a plan Tuesday to send out 500 million coronavirus tests to Americans who want them, in his latest attempt to slow the spread of the virus. The plan is a sudden turnaround from just two weeks earlier, when White House press secretary Jen Psaki mocked the idea in a press briefing. “Should we just send one to every American?” she asked a reporter sarcastically who asked if the Biden administration would consider sending out free tests. “Then what — then what happens if you — if every American has one test?” she continued mockingly. “How...
