Free Republic

The gubernatorial election landscape in 2022 is shaping up to be competitive as Republicans look to flip a number of governors' mansions across the country. Republicans are feeling momentum after Virginia Gov.-elect Glenn Youngkin's victory in November, when he became the first Republican to win a statewide race in the blue-leaning state since 2009. The party says the political environment is prime for Republicans to oust a number of vulnerable Democratic governors this year, including Gov. Laura Kelly in Kansas and Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in Michigan. However, Democrats say they see opportunities in states with contentious GOP primaries, particularly in...

‘If He Wants It,’ Graham Says, Donald Trump Is The GOP’s Presidential Nominee In 2024. Former President Donald Trump might win Republican Party support if he decides to run for president again in 2024, according to a Republican senator. Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., claimed during an appearance on “Hannity” that if Trump runs for president in 2024, he will most certainly receive the Republican nomination. “Unless something unexpected happens, it’ll be his nomination if he wants it. He was well-liked by the Republican grassroots.” Pete Hegseth, the guest host, was instructed by Graham. “If [Trump] runs a disciplined campaign, he...

"Nascar is reviewing the ‘Let’s Go Brandon Crypto Coin’sponsorship of driver Brandon Brown. The Wokes in the Nascar executive suite already approved it but they are now responding to pressure. Brandon Brown’s publicist said the car design is up in the air. Brown announced on Thursday that he had come to a deal with LGBcoin.io to sponsor his Xfinity Series car in 2022, unveiling a “red, white and blue livery with the logo and wordmark” of the company. “Let’s go Brandon” became a national euphemism for “F— Joe Biden” after a reporter in October mistakenly assumed a NASCAR crowd was...

""...our governments and media have waged a psychological campaign against the people to pressure, coerce, and "incentivize" an action many would have otherwise not taken. You're only allowed to be treated as an equal, you're only capable of rising to the highest tier of society, you're only permitted to maintain your employment, friendships, and family if you take the vaccine, once, twice--no, thrice, maybe more." A man in Melbourne has set himself on fire in front of horrified onlookers over oppressive Covid restrictions and vaccination mandates. The incident, which occurred around 8pm on Saturday near Church St in Richmond, was...

"A report from the New York Times says the White House in considering incorporating COVID-19 booster shots in their 2022 fully-vaccinated messaging. According to a new report, top health officials are afraid of changing the definition of what it means to be "fully vaccinated" given the fragile nature of science, politics, and the status of American life. With the onset of the Omicron variant in the United States, the country has topped the leaderboard with record amounts of COVID-19 cases being reported. According to The New York Times, the Biden administration is weighing redefining what it means to be "fully...

The January 6 insurrection may be a year behind Rep. Jason Crow, but the Colorado Democrat -- and many of his colleagues -- insist it would be a grievous error for his party to downplay the attack. "I just disagree with this notion that we shouldn't talk about this and that we shouldn't talk about what is at stake here and that this isn't important to people in their everyday lives," said Crow, a United States Army veteran who consoled his congressional colleagues as pro-Donald Trump rioters attempted to break into the House chamber. "It would be a massive mistake...

National Institutes of Health is alleged to have engaged in a $1.2 million contract to purchase approximately 5,000 beagle dogs and puppies over the past decade for use in brutal and unnecessary lab experiments, according to Fox News’ Will Cain, who hosted the Tuesday night edition of “Tucker Carlson Tonight.” This was discovered during an investigation into Indianapolis-based firm Envigo. The Washington Post reports this company “breeds dogs and sells them as research animals to the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries.”

What do FReepers think of 9mm carbines as a mid-power varmint rifle? My requirements are relatively cheap ammo, typical range is < 100 yards (usually 50 yards or less, really), only moderate penetration, with stopping power similar to a .357 handgun / somewhere between a .22lr hollow point and a 12 ga. deer slug. More...

We are witnessing history being repeated.Between September 1935 and the outbreak of World War II in September 1939 more than 120 laws, decrees and regulations, imposing over 400 legal restrictions, were enacted by the Third Reich on the justification of protecting the health of the German people. During the first six years of Hitler’s dictatorship, from 1933 until the outbreak of war in 1939, Jews felt the effects of more than 400 decrees and regulations that restricted all aspects of their public and private lives. Many of these were national laws but state, regional, and municipal officials, acting on their...

On 30 December 2020, QIAGEN issued an Urgent Field Safety Notice regarding a batch of their Covid tests: “In some cartridges, the reaction chamber that should hold the reaction mix for the SARS-CoV-2 target falsely contains the mix for atypical bacteria targets Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Legionella pneumophila, and Bordetella pertussis, and vice versa.”It is the first on a rolling list of field safety notices (“FSNs”) from medical device manufacturers published since January 2020. The list of FSNs is maintained by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”). In the document below we filtered MHRA’s full list as of 31 December...

A private meeting among the vaccinated mutated into a super-spreader event demonstrating how Covid vaccines do not protect against infection.It is a small island state in the North Atlantic with around 50 000 inhabitants: the Faroe Islands. At the beginning of December, no Omicron infections were recorded there. That changed when 33 caregivers got together for a private meeting. All of them had been boosted.“In the following days, many of the participants developed clear Covid symptoms,” reported Report24. Despite having had the triple vaccination, the participants fell ill: “In the end, there was a total of 21 infected people. That...

Let’s face it, everything Joe Biden and the Democrats do is about holding onto their power. So, they’re looking at polling when it comes to the midterms and they know they’re in deep, deep trouble.All the polls indicate they are going to lose the House and the large number of Democratic retirements in the House are likely to add to that wave.So, they have to be desperate for how to improve their polling and their chances.A new Zogby poll is going to make their chances look even worse. It shows that likely voters have turned overwhelmingly against government mandates: 53...

Three things are certain in life: Death, taxes, and Democrats governing like far-left, dictatorial loons.Case in point? New York City got the first taste of its new boss today, and not shockingly at all, he’s pretty much the same as the old boss. After being sworn in shortly after midnight, Eric Adams opened up his term by signing two executive orders and taking to social media to brag about them.The first granted himself emergency powers to essentially do whatever he wants. The other re-upped the beleaguered city’s vaccine passport system.The first Executive Order will continue the existing state of emergency...

I’ll be completely straight with you. I don’t just oppose vaccine mandates, though of course I do. I oppose the COVID vaccines themselves, because every one of them is intimately and proximately linked to the gravest evil imaginable: the ongoing murder of the innocent. Without such murders, and the abuse of human remains, these vaccines wouldn’t exist. Our own NIH is paying doctors to perform more abortions, on intact babies with beating hearts, to harvest still more organs for COVID research. Today. See The Stream’s five-part expose revealing all this, with links to the medical articles and lab catalogs selling...
