Los Angeles County health officials found out Tuesday that the federal government slashed the county’s requested and expected monkeypox vaccine allotment by 60%. This story is part of a partnership that includes KPCC/LAist, NPR and KHN. It can be republished for free. Last week, the FDA told health care providers to split a one-dose vial of the monkeypox vaccine into five doses. The shift was good news for vaccine-strapped cities throughout the country because it meant what little supply is available could be stretched much further. But then L.A. County and other cities and states were told that they would...

Zombie ice from the massive Greenland ice sheet will eventually raise global sea level by at least 10 inches (27 centimeters) on its own, according to a study released Monday. Zombie or doomed ice is ice that is still attached to thicker areas of ice, but is no longer getting fed by those larger glaciers. That’s because the parent glaciers are getting less replenishing snow. Meanwhile the doomed ice is melting from climate change, said study co-author William Colgan, a glaciologist at the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland. “It’s dead ice. It’s just going to melt and disappear from...

Joe Rogan finally did it He urged voters to vote Republican in November during his interview of Aaron Rogers. Just 12 minutes. Worth watching.

No matter how many times the country sees that its Democrat party, the media, the FBI, and the intelligence services are corrupt as hell, it’s always all about Trump. He’s been a target since he emerged on the escalator in 2015. But most importantly, he has the legal right to access any and all of the documents created during his presidency, classified or otherwise. Period.

The “sexes and the vocations pertaining thereto are not interchangeable,” wrote late Catholic priest Vincent P. Miceli in his 1981 book, The Antichrist: The Final Campaign Against the Savior. Recently republished by Sophia Institute Press, Miceli’s analysis of man and woman and their critical roles in the family remain as relevant today as his previously examined insights into secularism and the leftist cult leader Jim Jones. Miceli noted that “sex is not an accidental characteristic of man and woman. A human person without sex is a monstrous abstraction. Sex entails the very identity of each person; sex plunges to...

People from low-income households are told going to college is the primary route for getting a piece of the American Dream,* Perry says. *White people categorically ... have more wealth. They have their own higher-ed plans to make college more affordable.*

The Food and Drug Administration is expected to authorize new Covid-19 booster shots this week without a staple of its normal decision-making process: data from a study showing whether the shots were safe and worked in humans.The shots, modified to target the latest versions of the Omicron variant, won’t have finished testing in humans when the FDA makes its decisions.

Troy University students this fall will have an opportunity to learn about moral and anti-woke business practices thanks to a free market center on campus. “The Free Enterprise Scholars program seeks to educate undergraduates about the morals and values of good and ethical business,” Professor Alan Mendenhall told The College Fix. The program will be hosted through the Manuel H. Johnson Center for Political Economy where Mendenhall is the executive director. The business professor explained the problem with corporations pushing liberal policies: When businesses advocate ‘woke’ policies and leftist social justice initiatives they seem to be responding to criticisms, real...

Ask anyone who has endured an abusive relationship, one of the worst forms of psychological manipulation that narcissistic abusers employ is gaslighting, wherein the abuser makes the abused party think they’re crazy. The corporate media has mastered this tactic with so-called “gender-affirming care,” refining it to a T. Legacy press outlets have insisted, in lockstep with a seemingly predetermined narrative, that “gender-affirming surgeries” are most assuredly not being performed on minors or they are minimizing them if they are. Those now scrutinizing the policies and practices at children’s hospitals nationwide are delusional right-wing lunatics threatening the hospital staff, they maintain....

Russian defence minister Sergei Shoigu is being 'side-lined' by Vladimir Putin and is constantly mocked by his own soldiers, the British ministry of defence has revealed. In its daily briefing, the MoD said the veteran politician who has held the defence post for 10 years is no longer the confidant and ally he previously was to the leader. Russia's failures in Ukraine after sustaining huge losses to personnel and equipment without making major inroads into the country have led to his ousting from Putin's inner circle. The head of the Russian military is no longer briefing Putin directly, with the...

Protesters breached Iraq’s presidential palace on Monday after an influential Shiite cleric announced his resignation from politics. A video released on Monday showed U.S. Embassy employees in Baghdad being evacuated by military helicopter for safety. Concerns of unrest have grown recently, with the U.S. Embassy in Iraq releasing a statement last week urging calm among all parties. “We are closely monitoring reports of unrest in Baghdad today at the Supreme Judicial Council,” the embassy said. “We urge all parties to remain calm, abstain from violence, and resolve any political differences through a peaceful process guided by the Iraqi constitution. We...

Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk spoke at a conference in Norway on Monday, and amid his announcement that he plans to have self-driving Teslas on the market by the end of the year, he made the admission to reporters that the transition away from fossil fuels is happening too quickly. Reuters reports that Musk told reporters he thinks “we need to use oil and gas in the short term, because otherwise civilization will crumble.” “One of the biggest challenges the world has ever faced is the transition to sustainable energy and to a sustainable economy,” he added. “That will...

Ukraine’s campaign to retake Russian-held territory in the south appeared to take a major step forward as officials on Monday announced the start of a long-awaited counter-offensive against Moscow’s forces. As explosions were reported across the southern frontline, multiple officials confirmed Ukraine’s armed forces had “breached” Russia’s first line of defences around occupied Kherson in social media posts. "The first line of Russian defences on the Kherson front has been breached,” Sergey Khlan, an aide to the ousted Ukrainian head of the Kherson region, said on the Telegram messaging app. "Today there was a powerful artillery attack on enemy positions...

Ms. Jay Langadinos can offer Hollywood celebrities a more realistic view of the horrific realities of the medical procedures associated with the popular cause of “transgenderism.” She, admittedly, got swept up with the romanticized image of “gender transitioning” and claims she was left “disfigured” and “disabled” having attempted to change from female to male, according to a lawsuit filed by Ms. Langadinos in Australia. Her anger is directed at a medical system, and more specifically, her psychiatrist, Dr. Patrick Toohey, with whom she met with for an alarmingly short period of time -- one session. He was to set in...

Thousands of years of civilizations (of all sorts) have demonstrated that there are certain foundations a society must have in order for humans to flourish and prosper generally. Human life must be valued. Property rights need to be respected. The nuclear family -- father, mother and children -- must be protected. People should -- for the most part -- keep their promises, including the payment of their debts. Laws and the legal system must respect these structures, enforce and protect them. America is in the process of dismantling the foundations of our society as quickly as our pandering politicians can...

Scientific 'Integrity'?The inevitable end result of "trusting the science."Mon Aug 29, 2022John Stossel "Trust the science," say the media. Polls show that fewer Americans do. There's good reason for that. "They don't trust science because science is increasingly untrustworthy," says science writer Andrew Follet in my new video. "The only group that trusts science right now is Democrats."Sixty-four percent of Democrats have "a great deal" of confidence in the scientific community, compared to 34% of Republicans. Of course, true science — using the scientific method — is important. But that's not what much of "science" is these days. Instead, today...

Paul Sperry is an independent journalist who pays attention to facts rather than following the mindless herd that is the mainstream media. That’s why he closely examined the Mar-a-Lago affidavit—or, at least, the parts that remained after DOJ was done with redacting it. That examination was fruitful because Sperry discovered all sorts of problems and inconsistencies on the document’s face (what little of it we can see). Also, I’ll use this post to remind everyone again that nothing in Trump’s possession is classified or can ever be considered classified (or top secret or anything else). Twitter booted Sperry from the...
