Under pressure from federal officials and mainstream media to apply a rigid lens to ever-evolving scientific research, Big Tech companies are flailing in their efforts to treat contested claims consistently. Twitter blamed an overactive spam filter for wrongly suspending a U.K. doctor who started a project to audit the country's COVID-19 deaths and was previously censored by YouTube for explaining the results of Pfizer's COVID vaccine trial for young children in layman's terms. The explanation suggests that even as Twitter implements election misinformation rules ahead of the fall midterms, it may be wary of continuing to aggressively police "misleading" COVID...

Babylon Bee logo New Study Shows An Alarming Link Between Being A Conspiracy Theorist And Not Having Myocarditis HEALTH · Aug 22, 2022 · BabylonBee.com Article Image WASHINGTON, D.C. — CDC Director Rochelle Walensky spoke at a press briefing Monday in which she acknowledged an apparent link between those who believe in high-level government shadow conspiracies and not having myocarditis. According to the CDC's findings, "total nutjobs" appear to be immune to the little-known heart condition, leaving experts puzzled. "When the pandemic first hit we knew absolutely everything about the virus and immediately imposed common sense health guidelines that were...

The District of Columbia does not appear to have a contingency plan for unvaccinated students, who are banned from attending schools in person this fall after the first 20 days, according to comments made by Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser Thursday. During a press conference, Bowser, a Democrat, admitted there are no alternative options, including virtual learning, for students who cannot attend school due to the District’s vaccine mandate, meaning unvaccinated children will effectively be left without an education.

Far-right Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Georgia home was “swatted” for the second time in as many days early Thursday after a person allegedly made fake suicide threats, authorities said. Officers responded to Greene’s home just before 3 a.m. after a local 911 call center received a report from someone supposedly threatening to kill his family and himself, according to a police report. The person, who allegedly identified himself as “Wayne Greene,” claimed to have recently come out as transgender, the police report said — an apparent reference to Rep. Greene’s views on trans rights.

Political beliefs warrant varying degrees in the applications of “justice.” In 2019, after years of Mueller and his team of partisan hacks searching for a crime, the Justice Department decided not to charge Trump. However, that did not put to bed the false narrative that Trump skirted justice and committed criminal acts — in fact it fueled the rumors. The American Constitution society released a “Key Findings” report, which said: The Special Counsel investigation uncovered extensive criminal activity[.] And The Mueller report details multiple episodes in which there is evidence that the President obstructed justice. And A statement signed by...

I created a form to ask healthcare workers to speak anonymously about what they are seeing.Here’s what they said in their own words.Here is a quick summary of some of the things they said: They are afraid to come out publicly due to intimidation tactics such as loss of job and/or license to practice medicine. Unvaccinated healthcare workers are extremely upset with the medical community. They feel they have been treated unfairly. It is the vaccinated workers who are getting sick with COVID, but it is the unvaccinated who are punished with constant testing, restrictions, and threats of losing their...

Traditional Europe going the way of the dodo bird thanks to leftism. In 2006, notable Canadian conservative, Mark Steyn, authored a book titled America Alone. He argued that the values and cultures of the Western world were being erased by population booms among third-world Muslim demographics — aptly named Islamic imperialism. From the back cover of the book: Someday soon, you might wake up to the call to prayer from a muezzin. Europeans already are. And liberals will still tell you that ‘diversity is our strength’ – while Talibanic enforcers cruise Greenwich Village burning books and barber shops, the Supreme...

Pray For The Peace of JerusalemExodus 10The Plague of Darkness 21 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward the sky so that darkness spreads over Egypt—darkness that can be felt.” 22 So Moses stretched out his hand toward the sky, and total darkness covered all Egypt for three days. 23 No one could see anyone else or move about for three days. Yet all the Israelites had light in the places where they lived. 24 Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and said, “Go, worship the Lord. Even your women and children may go with you; only leave...

Controlling education is the grand prize in today’s culture wars. Why worry about elections if voters arrive at the polls fully ideologically indoctrinated? The Left has recognized this reality for decades and its long march through the institutions to control schools is now finally paying off. How else can one explain why such views as Critical Race Theory now infuse the curriculum from the earliest grades to graduate seminars in elite universities? While the Left has been conquering education for decades, conservatives have now finally awakened and are fighting back. The recent election for governor in Virginia and legislation in...

The spin heading toward Labor Day is that Republican chances of winning a Senate majority are fading. A GOP takeover of the U.S. House hangs by a thread... Nonsense. Corporate media is at it again, shilling for Democrats. The spin heading toward Labor Day is that Republican chances of winning a Senate majority are fading. A GOP takeover of the U.S. House hangs by a thread. Nonsense. In fact, Republicans are going to win a House majority and have a good shot of doing the same in the Senate. Of course, there are no guarantees -- life is like that...

At the 4th Study Day of the "New Beginning" initiative last Sunday, Cardinal Walter Kasper was extremely critical of the Synodal Process and its procedure. He pulled out all the stops and left no doubt: The Synodal Way has nothing to do with reforms, because Church reform does not make "the Church a mass that can be kneaded and shaped according to the situation", said the Cardinal. The Holy Spirit must be the yardstick, Kasper reminded the audience several times.

LONDON — Jennifer Jones keeps feeding money into her energy meter, but it never seems to be enough. And when she can't pay, she feels the impact immediately.The power in her London home has gone off suddenly three times recently, once when her partner was cooking an egg.The energy increases, together with rapidly rising food costs, are expected to push inflation above the 40-year high of 10.1% recorded in July and trigger a recession later this year, the Bank of England has predicted.

Europe faced the prospect of a radiation disaster on Thursday when a Russian-occupied nuclear plant was disconnected from Ukraine's power grid, President Volodomyr Zelensky has said. It was only due to back-up electricity kicking in that the Zaporizhzhia plant was able to operate safely, he added. Fires had earlier damaged overhead power lines, cutting the plant off. There is growing concern over fighting near the complex, which is the largest nuclear plant in Europe. "If the diesel generators hadn't turned on, if the automation and our staff of the plant had not reacted after the blackout, then we would already...

<p>The reason that’s so insane is two-fold. First, what right did the FBI have to interfere in private companies concerning what political stories they allow to be run? The attempt itself is bad enough considering the bureau had ostensibly pledged to avoid any possibility of affecting the outcome of an election. Secondly, and far more damning is the fact that the FBI knew at the time that the laptop was real, having been in possession of it since 2019.</p>

The motherliness of God has been neglected for far too long, says Martina Bär. For the fundamental theologian from Graz, practising a "Our Father-Mother" prayer therefore makes sense.

She is a Professor of Fundamental Theology in the Catholic Faculty in Graz and herself a mother of a one-year-old child. She explains why practising an "Our Father-Mother" prayer makes sense.

"Over the last few months, many people have been asking the same question: who is Joe Biden's new best friend and why can't we see them? It isn't Casper but it is a ghost...voter. There is a simple irrefutable fact that democRATs refute anyway: when you die you should not be allowed to vote ever again. PERIOD!

The economy shrank by 0.6% in the second quarter compared to the same period last year — the second consecutive quarter that the nation’s gross domestic product contracted, thus signaling the onset of a recession, according to the latest data. The US Commerce Department issued a revised reading of second-quarter figures on Thursday — nearly a month after its initial report measured a 0.9% contraction compared to the year prior, Fox Business reported. In the first quarter of this year, GDP fell by 1.6% — the worst-performing quarter since the spring of 2020. At the time, much of the country...
