"Getting your Horse-Faced Horse-Paste Democrat Friends to swallow this truth bomb is going to be like feeding a pill to a cat. It is a peer-reviewed research study on Ivermectin from Brazil. We analyzed data from a prospective, observational study of the citywide COVID-19 prevention with ivermectin program, which was conducted between July 2020 and December 2020 in Itajaí, Brazil.

According to rumours, David Tennant, who played the Tenth Doctor between 2005 and 2010, has been cast as the next Doctor. And if the circulating rumours are to be believed it would make the Scottish actor the first and only actor to play two incarnations of the Timelord. The tip off was spotted on a Facebook fan page, in which a user suggested a credible BBC source had leaked the information.

"If you’ve been wondering about the extent of voter fraud in America, we may be seeing a staggering amount of either fraud or grotesque negligence in Wisconsin voter rolls. A review of the state’s voter roles showed that 569,277 voters registered on January 1, 1918. Of that number, 20% of these people, all of whom must be at least 124 years old, voted last November. Biden “won” in Wisconsin by 20,682 votes.... For regular American Thinker readers, this shouldn’t come as a surprise. Roughly two weeks ago, Jay Valentine wrote about the extent of fraud he and his team have...

We learned this weekend that the White House has offered yet another summit between Joe Biden and Vladimir Putin in an effort to lower tensions around the situation in Ukraine. But if the intelligence agencies in Great Britain are correct, Russia may be cooking up a plan to avoid their expected invasion in a very different way. The UK is claiming that Putin plans to summarily replace Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky with a puppet president from an obscure pro-Russian political party. While such a plan seems unlikely at first glance, it would probably accomplish the same goals that Putin clearly...

VIDEOWhen liberals are confronted with inconvenient FACTS that counter their narrative about supposed voter "suppression" in Red states, they often squawk loudly to change the direction of the conversation as ABC's Martha Raddatz desperately tried to do when Senator Joni Ernst presented her with the FACTS that the Iowa voting laws in fact allow for MORE voting time than either such Blue states as Delaware or New York.

While several studies, including a final report from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), have concluded that remdesivir in coronavirus patients can speed the recovery process, a new study published in JAMA says it may not shorten hospital stays for all. The study, which focused on U.S. veterans who were hospitalized for COVID-19, concluded that remdesivir was not associated with improved survival, but was associated with longer hospital stays. The drug was granted emergency use authorization by the FDA for the treatment of hospitalized COVID-19 patients in May 2020, and the Infectious Diseases Society of America and NIH currently recommend...
