Show me your AIDS card. It proves that you don't have the HIV virus. Before you enter any business, fly on any airliner, enter any country, go to any school, you must prove you don't have HIV. HIV has been the most contagious and deadly virus of the last 40 years. And there is no vaccine or experimental shot. Full body suits with closed recirculating breathing systems are required if you don't have an AIDS card. 20 feet of social distancing is required as well. To get an AIDS card, you must have 3 consecutive negative HIV tests in a...

Traveled through the Navajo 'Nation' today. They're still on complete lockdown. Can't even eat without masks , hand goo. I said I'm not forcing my son to wear a mask. And I definitely want going for the filthy hand for that's advertised as cleaner. I said the rest of the state is open. All I got was 'Navajo nation!'. As a reminder, these folks vote 90% democrat and have done so since they got on the res and started taking welfare. They want those rules? Ok, I said no and walked out. It's been over a year. Look at the...

Recalls of Maricopa County Supervisors (all 5) are being organized by 'We the People AZ Alliance'. https://wethepeopleazalliance.com/recalls or at the bottom of this link: https://wethepeopleazalliance.com/events

In this edition of Arizona Today, Dr. Lyle discusses what has been happening with the forensic audit of the Maricopa County ballots (the actual paper ballots, not copies) and voting machines, the recall of the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, and reads some of the letters he has been getting from viewers.

Young Kim has flipped the 39th Congressional District back to red, defeating Democratic incumbent Gil Cisneros in a nail-biter of a rematch. The Associated Press called the race on Friday. The two first faced off during the midterm elections of 2018 in a race so close that it was not called for Cisneros until more than a week later.

Krebs, who has been overseeing the largest-ever operation to secure a U.S. election, has been presiding over a 24/7 war room with state and local election officials that launched on Election Day and is still operating. The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency director is widely credited with helping states dramatically improve their defenses against hacking and keeping the election free of foreign cyberattacks. But Krebs, who scrupulously avoided partisan politics in an effort to gain confidence and cooperation from both Republican and Democratic election security officials, apparently drew the ire of White House officials with a rumor control page that...

Rae Chornenky, the Maricopa County GOP Chair, has been forced to resign following her failure to sign the Certificate of Accuracy for the voting machines. Maricopa County in Arizona, which contains the state capitol Phoenix, has been at the center of attention following the election, being judged as crucial to President Trump’s chances of winning the state. At the time of writing, Arizona is still counting its votes, and a winner has not been declared by most media organizations, bar Fox and the AP. A number of allegations of voter irregularities have also arisen in Arizona. However, the Certificate of...

Georgia will undergo a recount in the presidential election, the Georgia secretary of state announced on Wednesday. The decision to perform a recount is a win for President Trump and his campaign as they rely on legal challenges and recounts in several battleground states to stay in the race. Joe Biden, who is ahead in Georgia by approximately 14,000 votes, was projected to win the election over the weekend. “With the margin being so close, it will require a full, by-hand recount in each county,” Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said during a news conference on Wednesday morning. “This will...

Maricopa County Public Health recommends that the mask requirements be kept in place until one of two situations occur: Until there is no community spread of COVID-19 documented in Maricopa County as defined by a 28-day period during which no new COVID-19 cases are reported to public health Until a COVID-19 vaccine is widely available with at least 40% of the population vaccinated. If there is no COVID-19 circulating, then masks are not required to prevent spread. If there’s a vaccine and approximately 40% of the population vaccinated (about the same percentage that gets the flu vaccine every year), there...

It is easy to confuse a surgical mask, a surgical N95 respirator, and an industrial N95 disposable respirator with one another. They look similar, and the words "respirator" and "mask" are often used interchangeably when discussing respiratory protection. However, in fact there are many differences between them. This article is intended to educate the reader on the differences between surgical masks, surgical N95 respirators, and industrial N95 respirators. Purpose or Intended Use ***** Surgical masks ***** May include masks labeled as surgical, laser, isolation, dental, or medical procedure masks Are primarily intended to protect the patient, not the wearer, from...

I found this commentary on citizenship interesting, specifically the third paragraph topic of 'subject to the jurisdiction thereof'. ---- “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.” Amendment XIV, Section 1 Teacher's Companion Lesson (PDF) Before the adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment, citizens of the states were automatically considered citizens of the United States. In 1857, the Dred Scott v. Sanford decision had held that no black of African descent (even a freed black) could be a citizen of the...

Ste Kinney-Fields created the maps below. They’re all based on data from from fivethirtyeight and 270towin. The maps show the 2016 presidential outcomes based on select voter outcomes.

The High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle — the HMMWV, or Humvee — is a stalwart of the battleground. If you asked someone to draw a military truck, they'd almost certainly draw this classic machine, which is almost older than a millennial (1984!) and gained such a pop culture following at one point that civilians started buying them. Arnold Schwarzenegger, in particular, is famous for his undying love of the "Hummer." But seriously, they're old. The US military has been keen on retiring Humvees for some time, and it has finally awarded the $6.7 billion contract to replace them to Wisconsin-based...

When emergency apparatus roll out of fire houses across the state, lights flashing and sirens blaring, odds are the first responders on board aren't on their way to battle a blaze. Instead, more often than not they are called to medical emergencies, a trend fire officials say is mirrored across the country. "There was a time when fighting fires was all we did," said Goffstown Fire Chief Richard O'Brien, President of the New Hampshire Association of Fire Chiefs. "Now we are more along the lines of all-hazard response systems." "It seems more people are calling 911 for medical needs," said...

Once upon a time, Radio Shack was saved from bankruptcy — in the 1960s. The British Tandy corporation, at that time a leather goods retailer, bought the company in a resulting merger called Tandy Radio Shack & Leather. In 1977, Radio Shack's 3,000 stores started selling the TRS-80 (Tandy/Radio Shack, Z-80 microprocessor). Largely forgotten by the general public, the TRS-80 was, with Apple and Commodore's products, one of the pioneering personal computers of the late 1970s, and a key machine in the personal computer revolution. Byte magazine described the "1977 Trinity" of computers: Apple, Commodore and Tandy. In 1981, the...

Ian Ziering, Tara Reid Returning for 'Sharknado 3' Third 'Sharknado' Will Target the "Feast Coast" Mark Cuban and Ann Coulter have joined the growing list of guest stars for the third TV movie in the phenomenon, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.

Here’s your proof that sometimes being just a little bit crazy results in something amazing. This is a working fire truck. It is made from a WWII-era Russian T34 tank. Strapped to that tank’s roof are the engines from a MiG-21 fighter jet. They call this Frankenstein creation Big Wind, and it’s a wonder to see it in action. According to MPORA, the fire truck was built by Hungarian engineers and was first used in 1991. That was back when Saddam Hussein’s army was laying waste to Kuwait as they retreated from the country. One of their destructive tactics was...

Dumping Beretta Last month, the Army announced plans for an "industry day" at which gun manufacturers such as Smith & Wesson , Sturm, Ruger , Colt, and Glock would be invited to show their wares and compete for a new contract. Its objective: to replace the M9 Beretta semiautomatic pistol. The U.S. Army holds more than 200,000 M9 Berettas in its inventory. If it proceeds with plans to use a new handgun, tentatively monikered the "Modular Handgun System," all of these M9s could soon be replaced. In fact, Military.com reported that if other armed services follow the Army's lead, one...

I should start by saying that if you are looking for a “Pajama party Barbie Jeep” you my friend, should keep looking. If you are looking for a short description of to the beast before you, I can offer you two words “MEAT & POTATOES”. This is the All American chariot of the free world. You are not dealing with any ordinary, cookie cutter Jeep son. This thing was forged from a single block of all American Tungsten Steel. Real sturdy! From that day forward my life has never been the same. Winch yourself off that couch and see if...

My wife is about 2 weeks away from giving birth. The hospital contacted her today and told her that they would not release the baby until we have given them a pediatrician's name. I don't know if this is policy or law in Arizona. I have started making calls, but am not getting anywhere yet. Anyone heard of this? I have other children and was never told anything like this. It ticks me off because I see it as a threat and a loss of control of my child. I can try another hospital, but I don't know yet if...
