A tip of the tinfoil hat to my conspiracy theory friends. You’re right again. The president of the United States would NEVER hand over immense power regarding healthcare, travel, and censorship to the World Health Organization (WHO), right? Tucker Carlson broke a story on Thursday that every American needs to understand regarding the “Global Pandemic Treaty.”This January, the Biden administration submitted a series of proposed amendments to something called the International Health Regulations (the IHR). Now, the Biden administration’s amendments, along with those from several other countries, will be combined to create a new global pandemic treaty. “We need a...

More than a few executives appear to be glimpsing the high costs of politicized corporate management… A chief driver of these revelations is surely the rolling market correction that has characterized 2022. At one point last week, the Nasdaq was down 29 percent from its December 31st close. Adam Smith once noted that “there’s a lot of ruin in a nation,” by which he meant that a country can screw up very many things while still trudging along. In good financial times there can be a lot of ruin in a company, too. When profits are high (or speculative backing...

Dr. Sanjay Verma, an adult cardiologist practicing in Coachella Valley, California, sees a few hundred patients a month, and since last summer, he has seen “possibly a dozen” patients whose heart conditions might be connected to the COVID vaccines.“I can only say possibly—not definitively—because we do not yet have any diagnostic test that 100 percent says ‘this caused this.’ What we do is what’s called a process of exclusion. We look for common associations like coronavirus, influenza virus, other infections, atherosclerosis or coronary artery disease, alcohol, recreational drugs, and if everything keeps coming back negative or normal, then by default...

If an administration deliberately wished to cause havoc on the border, to ensure fuel was nearly unaffordable, to create a crime wave, to spark 1970s hyperinflation, and to rekindle racial tensions, what would it have done differently than what President Joe Biden has done? So is Biden malicious, incompetent, or a wannabe left-wing ideologue? When pressed about inflation and fuel price hikes, Biden either blames someone or something else, gets mad at the questioner, or claims former President Donald Trump did it. His administration apparently believes things are going well and according to plan. When polls disagree, his team either...

A public high school's decision to remove the front doors of toilet blocks in order to create 'non-gendered' facilities has been met with fury among parents. In a letter sent to parents and caregivers, Principal of Golden Grove High School in Adelaide, Peter Kuss, advised the changes to the current toilet facilities had been implemented. 'The health, safety and wellbeing of all young people is important to us. We understand that accessing toilet facilities whilst at school can cause anxiety for some students,' Mr Kuss wrote in the letter. 'The guidelines for the provision of student toilets has evolved over...

Large-scale street protests have been raging in Iran since last week, as inflation and the war in Ukraine have driven flour-based food staples to jump by as much as 300% – this also after the government moved to cut food subsidies. Amid the soaring prices, already in an economy devastated by years of US sanctions gong back to the Trump administration’s pullout of the JCPOA nuclear deal, the central government has few options in terms of relief for the populace given assets abroad remain frozen.Illustrative, prior protest: APDemonstrators have been outraged over food prices and lack of urgent supplies such...

Louisiana public schools are closing the door to woke ideologies in social studies curricula and turning instead to American exceptionalism. “If you look throughout the course of American history, you see that we have always been on a quest for freedom, whether it was the signers of the Declaration of Independence or the abolishment of slavery,” Louisiana Superintendent of Education Cade Brumley told The Epoch Times. A detail from the painting “Declaration of Independence” by John Trumbull (1826), depicting the Committee of Five: (L–R) John Adams, Robert Livingston, Roger Sherman, Thomas Jefferson, and Benjamin Franklin. (Public Domain) Brumley oversaw the...

After nearly a month, Indonesia will lift an export ban on palm oil starting Monday, which could ease tight edible oil markets worldwide and reduce some of the pressure on soaring food prices. “Based on the current supply and price of cooking oil and considering that there are 17 million workers in the palm oil industry, both working farmers and other supporting staff, I have decided that the export of cooking oil will reopen on Monday, May 23,” President Joko Widodo said in a statement on Thursday. Indonesia is the world’s biggest shipper of edible oils, accounting for nearly 60%...

A $40 billion Ukraine aid package passed the Senate on Tuesday with relative ease despite opposition from 11 Republicans. The package that passed 86-11 will give Ukraine another round of military and humanitarian assistance as the war with Russia drags on. Despite support from Democratic and GOP leadership, 11 Republicans broke from their party and voted against the aid. The conservative effort to stop the bill first began last week when the House sent the legislation to the Senate, and Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) objected to the measure. Paul delayed the passage of the bill by a week because he...

The president of Princeton University recently recommended that the school fire a tenured professor over sexual misconduct issues, but those issues were already adjudicated in 2018. It appears the real reason they want to get rid of him is for the crime of questioning the university’s new anti-racism policies.Here’s the playbook: person expresses thoughtcrime. The Puritans and the bureaucrats go digging. Then they caricature and smear the person based on their worst moment or mistake. They pretend it’s about that, but the thoughtcrime was always the thing.https://t.co/rhn3gFgfqR— Bari Weiss (@bariweiss) May 20, 2022Here’s the timeline: in 2006, tenured classics Professor...

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention mentioned that two people who traveled to Nigeria in 2021 were diagnosed with monkeypox. You will mostly find the disease in Central and West Africa. However, other cases have been reported in Europe, the UK, and some other parts worldwide. The cases are related to animals that have been imported or on international travel. Spain has already reported 7 Monkeypox cases and is investigating 22 more cases currently. Montreal is seeing 17 cases being investigated, and Italy, too, has confirmed the first case. Dr. Vivek Murthy, US Surgeon General, stated that there is...

When we last left the saga of the GOP Senate Primary in the commonwealth of Pennsylvania Tuesday, there was a hint that late-arriving mail-in ballots would be the deciding factor, and those would for sure be all counted up on Friday. We would have one, definitive Republican nominee in the fall midterms to back against the current Lt. Gov. John Fetterman (D-PA).Sad to say, folks, it’s now Friday evening and it’s not over yet, according to AP.Dr. Mehmet Oz and David McCormick prepared for a recount as vote counting entered a fourth day in Pennsylvania’s Republican primary for an open...

WASHINGTON, D.C.—The Monkeypox pandemic has finally breached the shores of the United States, with the CDC confirming a staggering 1 infections so far. In response, America's favorite, most trusted doctor, Dr. Anthony Fauci, issued a statement recommending people stop the spread of Monkeypox by covering their eyes, ears, and mouth. Fauci accepted 137 TV interviews and a book deal after issuing the guidelines essentially recommending people look the other way rather than investigate the source of this new outbreak. "As I, the Science, have always said, lockdowns don't work. What really works is turning a blind eye to where this...

A great man once said, “It is best I had no learn­ing, for many learned men be great fools.”This great man was Thomas Fuller. He was born in 1710 in Africa. He was known as the Vir­ginia cal­cu­la­tor and Negro Tom.Thomas Fuller arrived on the Unit­ed States’ shores in 1724, when he was just 14 years old. Against his will, he was put on a boat and sent to America.Though he nev­er learned to read or write, Fuller could mul­ti­ply to 9 dig­it num­bers, state the num­ber of sec­onds in a giv­en time, and cal­cu­late the num­ber of grains of...

Pfizer is apparently at it again, conveniently hitting another grand slam with another perfectly timed drug release for the latest viral outbreak sweeping the west – monkeypox. After hitting it out of the park with their experimental mRNA Covid vaccine – typically what would be considered a once-in-a-lifetime development that’s cashing the company out to a tune of $1,000 per second – it seems like a long stretch that Pfizer would be involved in the ‘cure’ for the new outbreak, but hey, they apparently pulled it off. Either way, here comes a Pfizer affiliate with another healthcare ‘solution’ as monkeypox...
