I wanted to get folks opinion on this. I've seen this product advertised many places, but I wondered if it really works. I've taken some supplements, off and on, for Covid since mid 2021. None of them kept me from contracting Covid, and none of them stopped me from developing Long Covid, which I still suffer from and probably will for months/years to come. I had to retire because of it. The ad goes as follows: Spike Support Formula contains all-natural, non-GMO, scientifically-supported ingredients: Nattokinase is a proteolytic enzyme with fibrinolytic (anti-clotting) effects, that may maintain a healthy immune system....

Former CIA Director John Brennan said Tuesday on MSNBC’s “Deadline” that the terrorist organization Hamas would not survive the war it ignited with Isreal after its attacks. Brennan said, “I’ve been involved in counterterrorism for the better part of 40 years, and I must say, this is the most horrific series of attacks that I’ve ever had to witness or to talk about. Unspeakable, unadulterated evil, as President Biden said. What they did to babies, murdered them, elderly, women, children, I can’t get over it. It’s sickening, absolutely sickening. This was purposed by Hamas.”

Carlson's opposition to GOP support for Israel to fight back in self-defense against Hamas marks him as an outlier. But his outsized influence may move some Republicans towards a more skeptical position on Israel. Tucker Carlson, the far-right U.S. pundit who has been among the most high-profile skeptics of providing military aid and diplomatic support to Ukraine, used his Twitter talk show to decry Republicans advocating for Israel to use all of its capabilities to fight back against Hamas in Gaza, as well as its regional backers in Iran, after the terror group's assault on southern Israel.

Sara Foster, the Democrat daughter of music mogul David Foster tore into those who haven’t come out in support of Israel after the Jewish nation was attacked by Islamic savages who massacred hundreds of innocent people. In a post to Instagram, the politically active actress strongly condemned the violence and those who committed the barbaric acts while also expressing support for the ordinary Palestinian people who now find themselves facing a “mighty vengeance” which was vowed by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in retaliation for the butchery of Hamas. “I do not support the killing of innocent people. The people...

Gigi Hadid is denouncing “the terrorizing of innocent people” following the Hamas attacks on Israel, which have since prompted the latter to declare war. The half-Palestinian supermodel, 28, took to Instagram Tuesday to share her thoughts on the “unjustifiable tragedy” that began unfolding Saturday after the Palestinian terrorist organization launched a surprise assault by air, sea and land on Israeli towns near the Gaza Strip. Hadid told her followers that her “thoughts,” “condolences,” “love & strength” are with “all” those who have been affected by the conflict, especially the “innocent” — “too many of which are children.” Hadid explained that...

A major Black Lives Matter group has thrown its support behind "the resistance in Palestine" following the deadly terrorist attack on Israel by Hamas over the weekend. Rather than express sympathy for the more than 1,000 Israelis murdered by Hamas terrorists, Black Lives Matter Grassroots put out a statement declaring its support for Palestinians, saying, "[W]e must stand unwaveringly on the side of the oppressed." The post proclaimed that because the Palestinians "have been subject to decades of apartheid and unimaginable violence, their resistance must not be condemned, but understood as a desperate act of self-defense." The group, which was...

Humans tend to be creatures of habit. Even if you think you’re not, you really are. After all, what happens if you go to bed without brushing your teeth? If you brush right before bed every night, you probably feel a little weird skipping it. [snip] When it comes to your guns, you have habits there as well. You lock your guns up every night. You put your holster on every morning. You do things with your guns just like you would with anything else. And according to one study, there’s supposedly a problem. "In terms of firearm use, Mississippi...

Forced into playing defense following the deadly attacks perpetrated by Hamas, the White House aggressively denied the $6 billion it sent to Iran had anything at all to do with the $6 billion worth of rockets launched into Israel. "Two completely unrelated amounts of money," said Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre. "While it may be tempting to believe these wild, unsubstantiated conspiracies that we are somehow financing these attacks, the fact is it is entirely coincidental that Hamas fired exactly $6 billion in rockets at Israel immediately after we sent $6 billion to the Iranian government. Those are just two...
