FIRST ON FOX: The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is funding $27 million in studies marked for use of fetal tissue, according to a new analysis.The White Coat Waste Project (WCW), which opposes animal experimentation, looked through NIH data to uncover the scope of funding, which includes support for things like transplanting fetal lungs, liver and thymus into mice. The majority of the reported funding – 79.6% – comes from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), which is run by White House Chief Medical Adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci. Overall, NIH expects to spend $88 million on this...

Young adults in the United States can add more than a decade to their life expectancy by changing from a typical Western diet to one that includes more legumes, whole grains and nuts, and less red and processed meat, an analysis published Tuesday by PLOS Medicine found. For older people, the anticipated gains to life expectancy from such dietary changes would be smaller, but still substantial, the researchers said. Young women who changed to an "optimal" diet high in fruit and vegetables and low in red and processed meats beginning at age 20 -- and stuck to it -- would...

Democrats were caught off guard by Donald Trump’s numbers in South Texas in 2020. The Hispanic Republican women who live there were not. Many of them have played a leading role in urging their neighbors in majority-Hispanic South Texas to question their traditional loyalty to the Democratic Party. Hispanic women now serve as party chairs in the state’s four southernmost border counties, spanning a distance from Brownsville almost to Laredo — places where Trump made some of his biggest inroads with Latino voters. A half-dozen of them are running for Congress across the state’s four House districts that border Mexico,...

Kurt Zouma was named in West Ham’s starting line-up against Watford despite his cat-kicking shame. The French defender was condemned by his club, the RSPCA and other animal welfare groups after a video emerged of him dropping, kicking and slapping his pet cat. Zouma has apologised for his actions while Essex Police have confirmed they are liaising with the RSPCA as part of their “urgent enquiries”. Yet despite the widespread revulsion towards the video, Hammers manager David Moyes has controversially stuck with the 27-year-old. In the video, Zouma is seen kicking and slapping the cat, while laughter can be heard...

OTTAWA—After emerging from his top-secret underground hiding hole, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau gave a fiery speech before the House of Commons. In it, he demanded truckers stop shutting down the city, in order to give the government room to shut down the city instead. "Let me be clear," said the frail little socialist girl claiming to be Trudeau. "Shutting down roads, limiting people's movement, restricting people's freedom, and shutting down the city is unacceptable. It's the government's job to do that. We must break the back of this fascist blockade so that I may freely shut down roads, limit...

YouTuber King Cid, who has 2 million subscribers on the platform, was last week arrested after he and his friends in January misused 911 as part of a YouTube "coke" prank, according to police. Cid, whose legal name is Jason Cid, in a video uploaded to his YouTube channel showed the January 27 incident. In the video, Cid told a friend call local police about "weird, suspicious activities" at a gas station in Southern Florida. But the car the friend reported to the dispatcher was the one occupied by Cid and his friends. Cid was charged with the third-degree felony...

Four Kansas state Senate Republicans on Monday night voted with Democrats to protect Gov. Laura Kelly’s (D) veto on the state’s redistricted maps. While the Senate necessitates a two-thirds majority to override the governor’s veto, three of the four Republican senators that voted “no” on Monday changed their votes from the original vote on the map last month. The chaotic vote ended at 25-14, with Senate President Ty Masterson (R) switching his vote to allow another opportunity for a vote on Tuesday. Republicans need two of the four Republican senators to reverse course and vote to override the veto. Those...

Surveillance video caught a family of 8 at a frozen yogurt shop in San Francisco helping themselves without paying. Betty Yu tells us the youngest child even stole the shop's tip jar.

One of the odder aspects of it all was accentuated during the State of the Union was watching Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi‘s protracted, animated lip contortions. As for all that teeth sucking and like angst, “I try not to watch her mouth,” Sutherland says. “It could be a nervous habit – I don’t know.”

California Republican state Sen. Brian Dahle will announce his candidacy for governor on Tuesday, one of the first Republicans to publicly challenge Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom since his decisive victory in a recall election just five months ago. The announcement poses little risk for Dahle, a relatively unknown lawmaker representing the rural, conservative northeast corner of the state far from the liberal power centers of Los Angeles and the San Francisco Bay area. He's not on the ballot in this year's elections, and he can't run for reelection in 2024 because of term limits. But it ensures Republicans will have...

In a February 1, 2022 letter addressed to DOD leader Lloyd Austin, Senator Ron Johnson cites the “dramatic increases in medical diagnoses among military personnel,” as well as evidence that the “diagnoses of myocarditis had been removed from the database.”Senator Ron Johnson has been fighting for answers from Secretary Lloyd Austin of the Department of Defense (DoD) after three whistleblower doctors represented by attorney Thomas Renz came forward under penalty of perjury.The whistleblowers provided devastating information about likely “vaccine” injuries in the military, as well as a cover up of rampant myocarditis diagnoses that were scrubbed from the Defense Medical...

He is not alone in seeing this. All his other embalmer friends see it too. All of them. The only possible explanation: the COVID vaccines are killing massive numbers of previously healthy people.Steve Kirsch20 hr ago SummaryFifteen embalmers are all seeing odd fatal clotting in people that first started in 2021. As many as 65% of cases are affected. Just like the DMED data, this evidence is being totally ignored by the mainstream press and medical community as well as the CDC and other HHS agencies. The only explanation that fits all the facts is that the vaccines are killing...

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot is suggesting that her city’s dramatic rise in carjackings since the start of the coronavirus pandemic is linked to students being kept away from classrooms with remote learning.

[Please pray for their success]Dr. Byram W. Bridle13 hr ago I am absolutely thrilled to let you now that a public invitation has been issued to three of the top public health officials that have been driving the COVID-19 narrative in Canada. They are being asked to meet with me and two of my colleagues at Parliament Hill this Friday. We are travelling to our nation’s capital to demonstrate our willingness to engage in a respectful discussion of the science and medicine underpinning COVID-19. This is to be a live-streamed event with an open invitation having been issued to all...

FIRST ON FOX: Several Republicans signed a letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and Committee on House Administration Chairwoman Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif., calling on them to investigate the reports of Capitol Police "monitoring" lawmakers and citizens. Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz., led the letter exclusively obtained by Fox News Digital with 33 of his GOP colleagues to Pelosi and Lofgren regarding reports that Capitol Police have dug into the backgrounds of people who meet with lawmakers. "Recent reports state that the Capitol Police are surveilling Members of Congress, Congressional staff, and their Capitol visitors," Biggs told Fox News Digital in...

After some dusty weather delays, it’s time to celebrate the #MarsHelicopter’s first flight of 2022! The rotorcraft flew for the 19th time on the Red Planet, soaring for 99.98 seconds over ~62 meters.

Ana Navarro told her co-hosts Tuesday on ABC’s “The View” that both former Governor Andrew Cuomo (D-NY) and his brother ex-CNN host Chris Cuomo are toxic and all about “wrath and a vendetta.” While discussing a possible Andrew Cuomo political comeback, Navarro said, “He told Bloomberg, ‘Too many people run for office because it’s about them. It’s about their ego and need.’ Frankly, it feels like a lot of self-reflection there.”

Time has not be kind to the concoction of measures Dr. Anthony Fauci recommended and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) approved for dealing with the covid pandemic. Experience and research has shown that masks don't work, the lockdowns did more harm than good, and the vaccines have failed to prevent their recipients from becoming infected and transmitting the virus to others. When questioned at a Senate hearing, Fauci declared himself free of any blame, saying "I was only following the CDC guidelines." Challenged by Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ken) who contended that "I don't see how following guidelines you had...

FIFTH WEEK IN ORDINARY TIME MARK 7:1-13 Friends, in today’s Gospel, Jesus exposes the hypocrisy of the Pharisees who have imposed their interpretation of the Law on the Israelites. Keep in mind that the first Christians and the writers of the first Christian documents were all Jews, or at least people formed by a Jewish thought world. They made sense of Jesus in terms of what were, to them, the Scriptures. Jesus himself was an observant Jew, and the themes and images of the Holy Scriptures were elemental for him. He presented himself as the one who would not undermine...

As the Pentagon begins processing immediate discharges for those who object to the Covid-19 ‘vaccines’ to leave the U.S. military, there is new data to support extraordinary concern for the shots’ safety.Disturbing new data from the Defense Medical Epidemiology Database shows a startling increase in numerous medical health conditions year-over-year for all age-cohorts — some of these conditions being chronic and life-threatening.It was first brought to public light in a February 1, 2022 letter to Pentagon chief Lloyd Austin from the U.S. Senate. Senator Ron Johnson cited the “dramatic increases in medical diagnoses among military personnel,” as well as evidence...
