“The mind cannot be seen under the microscope, but the microscope is just a tool we use. Tools are man-made; today with a microscope, you can see molecules, and tomorrow it may be an atomic microscope, or even a super microscope, and you can see smaller things.“Therefore, the fundamental reason why these people are not infected with the coronavirus is that at the macroscopic level, the body’s immune system—spleen, bone marrow, lymph nodes and other organs or tissues—function normally.“At the molecular level, it’s about immune cells, related molecules (interferons, etc) and other substances. But at a more microscopic level, there...

It was not supposed to be this way. Not in the mind of Russian dictator Vladimir Putin, anyway.With Russia’s invasion of Ukraine entering its fourth week, as my colleague Steiff reported on Thursday, Putin delivered a speech to the Russian people that at times sounded confident and reassuring, other times desperate and suspicious of his own people — even to the extent of threatening the “scum and traitors,” and a “self-cleansing to purge the bastards and traitors.” (“Uncle Joe” Stalin come to mind?)The bottom line? Putin knows he’s in a spot.So what’s a guy in a spot to do? For...

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — ​​South Carolina has given the greenlight to firing-squad executions, a method codified into state law last year after a decade-long pause in carrying out death sentences because of the state’s inability to procure lethal injection drugs... ...Lawmakers set about tweaking state law to get around the lethal injection drug situation.

As a man wins the women’s NCAA championship, two fans disagree with one another. Wait for this line: “I’m not a vet but I know what a dog is.”

With the start of the NCAA women's tournament on Friday, two ESPN announcers used the platform to take a stand against Florida House Bill 1557, dubbed by critics as the "Don't Say Gay" bill. To start the second half of Friday's game between South Carolina and Howard, ESPN's Carolyn Peck and Courtney Lyle spoke about the bill in solidarity with their Disney colleagues. Disney owns ESPN. "Normally at this time we would take a look back at the first half," Courtney Lyle said while introducing the second half. "But there are things bigger than basketball that need to be addressed...

A lawyer for the mother of Hunter Biden’s 3-year-old daughter expects the president’s son “to be indicted” for tax fraud, a report said. Attorney Clint Lancaster made the stunning prediction while confirming in an interview with CNBC that his client Lunden Roberts recently testified in Delaware before a federal grand jury in the criminal investigation into the 52-year-old presidential scion. “I expect him to be indicted,” Lancaster told the outlet, referring to Hunter Biden. “Just based on what I saw in his financial records, I would be surprised if he’s not indicted.” Lancaster said Roberts, the 31-year-old mother of Hunter...

Sports reporter and commentator John Clayton has died. There is speculation across social media claiming that he may have died from a recent booster shot of Covid-19 “vaccines” as the family and those close to him announced he died of an unspecified “short illness.” Adverse reactions from Covid-19 jabs often manifest suddenly and unpredictably. It all depends on where the spike proteins accumulate in the body. When they hit the heart, they can cause myocarditis or pericarditis. When they create clots in the blood stream, they can hit anywhere and cause a wide array of complications, including death. ... Having...

In case you needed a reminder, there were a bunch of supposed experts in national intelligence who all got together and signed a special little letter right before the 2020 election claiming the emails published from Hunter’s laptop had ‘all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.’ Remember that? We all remember social media doing it’s part to block the real story, but yup, these dbags all signed a letter that should have removed all doubt because they were the EXPERTS. Such dirty pool, you guys.

Is Putin going to launch a nuclear war? March 18, 2022 6:55 pm by Oleg Sukhov Days after launching a full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Russian dictator Vladimir Putin ordered to put his country’s nuclear deterrent forces on alert, effectively threatening the world with a nuclear war. With the ongoing military invasion proving to be extremely costly for Russia, the key question now is whether Putin is bluffing. When starting the invasion, Putin said that any outside country trying to interfere in the war in Ukraine would face “consequences that they have never seen in their history,” which can be interpreted...

We are learning March 18 something that apparently slipped under the radar for a few days. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) “quietly” made some changes to its data tracker website on March 15, removing tens of thousands of deaths from COVID-19, nearly a quarter of which were those for young people under 18. They tell us this occurred because of a “coding logic error.” I wonder how many they would have had to remove if they included those who were registered by hospitals—for profit or otherwise—as having died from the virus when they had multiple other of...
