The Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine turned negatively effective after five months, according to a new study.Researchers with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) analyzed test results from sites across the United States and determined that the vaccine was 60 percent effective two to four weeks after 12- to 15-year-olds got the second of the two-dose primary regimen.But the effectiveness, measured against symptomatic illness, quickly plummeted, hitting 20 percent around month two and zero around month five.After that, recipients in the age group were more likely to be infected by the disease caused by the CCP (Chinese Communist Party)...

A new study on the COVID-19 vaccines and their administration to children is raising questions about prior mandates, while pointing to longer-term concerns.The results and methodology were published on the JAMA Network, which has a variety of medical journals covering different fields. The three headlining researchers were Katherine E. Fleming-Dutra, MD, Amadea Britton, MD, and Nong Shang, Ph.D. What the study found, in my reading of the material, directly contradicted the COVID hysterics who have been pushing coronavirus vaccination on children (ages 5-11) and adolescents (ages 12-15).Question Does the estimated effectiveness of 2 doses of the BNT162b2 COVID-19 vaccine against...

Just before Easter, the Russians announced that they had accomplished all of their pre-invasion objectives and were beginning a new phase. The new phase required the abandonment of Russia’s attempt to seize control of Kiev and focus the war on gaining control of Donbas and establishing a land bridge from Russia to Crimea (read Ukraine’s Future Depends on These Three Fights That Russia Must Win and 10 Days Into Putin’s ‘New Phase’ of Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine, There Are Minor Advances but the Clock Is Ticking). That goal eventually expanded to creating Russian-owned territory from Russia to Moldova and stripping...

Kathy Barnette, who has taken Republican leaders by surprise with her late break run towards the GOP Senate nomination in Pennsylvania, said she would not support Mitch McConnell to lead her party if she makes it to Washington. “No, I think it’s time,” Barnette said in a recent interview with McClatchyDC. “These people have been in office longer than I’ve been alive. It’s time to move forward, thank you. Turn the page.” She added, “None of these people are going to release power. Power is addictive to them.” The 50-year-old Barnette, a Black conservative woman, poses a real threat to...

Joe Biden has a new explanation for inflation:You want to bring down inflation? Let’s make sure the wealthiest corporations pay their fair share. — Joe Biden (@JoeBiden) May 13, 2022He was massively ratioed on Twitter for being an ignoramus. It was so bad even Jeff Bezos weighed in and it wasn't pretty:The newly created Disinformation Board should review this tweet, or maybe they need to form a new Non Sequitur Board instead. Raising corp taxes is fine to discuss. Taming inflation is critical to discuss. Mushing them together is just misdirection. https://t.co/ye4XiNNc2v — Jeff Bezos (@JeffBezos) May 14, 2022Shortly before...

A super PAC supporting Mehmet Oz, the celebrity surgeon and prominent candidate in Pennsylvania's Republican Senate primary, has released an attack ad that wildly distorts the past remarks and positions of Kathy Barnette, a party rival who is surging in late-campaign polls. The super PAC, American Leadership Action, tries to depict the right-wing Barnette, who ran unsuccessfully for the US House of Representatives in 2020, as a "crazy" advocate of liberal positions. To do so, though, the super PAC misleadingly truncated Barnette's past comments about race and policing and added inaccurate introductions to these shortened clips. The primary takes place...

Democratic Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly on Friday vetoed a bill to limit the power of state health officials to mandate measures for contagious diseases, including face masks and vaccine passports. Kelly said the bill went beyond COVID-19 and would considerably limit government response to any infectious disease outbreak. Senate Bill 34, brought by the Republican-controlled Legislature, sought to curb the power of government agencies as well as state and local health officials in response to COVID-19 mandates imposed during the pandemic. Amendments to the Kansas Emergency Management Act would prohibit the mandating of protective mask requirements (pdf), except for hospitals...

One of Dr. Oz’s opponents in the tightly contested Pennsylvania Republican Senate primary has a history of bigoted comments toward Muslims, a review of tweets and online content by The Post shows. Political commentator Kathy Barnette’s incendiary comments first emerged seven years ago when she likened Muslims to “animals.” “We must stop interacting with them as if they r rational human beings. There is nothing rational about Islam,” Barnette, 50, tweeted in 2015. The same year she shared an article titled “Pedophilia is a Cornerstone of Islam.”

... Thursday night alone was pretty wild, with Sean Hannity pumping up Dr. Mehmet Oz, Trump’s choice for Senate, and talking down Kathy Barnette, a conservative media commentator whose late surge in the May 17 primary has alarmed Republican Party insiders and thrilled the rambunctious G.O.P. grass-roots in Pennsylvania. An hour later, Laura Ingraham was defending Barnette against what she called “smears.” To viewers, it presented the illusion of a real-time debate between warring factions of what remains the nation’s most powerful cable news channel.

THE ZAPPA BAND LAUNCHES FIRST-EVER HEADLINING TOUR One of the most ground-breaking, original, and fearless figures of popular music was undoubtedly the legendary Frank Zappa. And paying tribute to his late icon is The Zappa Band – a group largely comprised of former members of Frank’s bands. And for the first time ever, the group (who had previously opened a string of shows for prog greats King Crimson) will be headlining their own tour for much of June – beginning in New York on the 12th, and then wrapping up in New Hampshire on the 26th. And thus far, the...

One would think that asking such a question is beyond observed, yet if you truly look at all the facts, then one must consider the idea that maybe, just maybe there is no such thing as an original author. After all, unless you can verify that you sat down next to someone writing or typing an artless from start to finish, how can you honestly testify that the one claiming to write something, indeed did? Take this post as an example, I am in my office sitting in front of my computer. My wife is on the other side of...

Call from Austin as Ukraine collapses

A nine year-old white boy was filmed storming over to his black neighbors' house and cracking a whip on their door while trying to find their nine year-old daughter. Shocking footage shows the unnamed child cracking the weapon on Dee and Carissa Nash's front door just outside of Dallas Friday, allegedly in search of the couple's young daughter. The clip shows mom Carissa answering the door to confront the child, who she says was upset with and planned to attack her daughter.

A detailed list of the destroyed and captured vehicles and equipment of both sides can be seen below. This list is constantly updated as additional footage becomes available.
