* Official figures show offending in women's prisons by criminals born male * Male-born trans prisoners were first allowed to transfer to women's jails in 2016 * Attacks at HMP Low Newton, Foston Hall, Peterborough, Bronzefield, New Hall Transgender prisoners have carried out seven sex attacks on women in jail, it can be revealed today. Official figures show for the first time the true scale of offending by criminals who were born male but were allowed to move into female jails after changing gender. Yet despite the risks, prison governors are still allowing trans inmates to move into the...

The internal memos released from the FBI’s investigation of former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn represent a “smoking gun” against the FBI under James Comey's leadership, former House Oversight Committee Chairman Jason Chaffetz said Monday. “I do think it is the smoking gun,” Chaffetz told “America’s Newsroom's" Ed Henry.

I won't sit back and watch residents who live in counties under Stay at Home orders get sick because local leaders cannot see the risks of #COVID19 and push to reopen prematurely. Today I am announcing consequences for counties that do not abide by the law to remain closed. Non-compliant counties won't be eligible for federal stimulus discretionary funds. Instead, those funds will be allocated to counties working to stop the spread of #COVID19. Businesses should know that opening in counties that don’t abide by the law will potentially jeopardize their business liability insurance or the protections it provides. Dine-in...

This is a good overview about the current State of politics that you would never hear in the Fake Stream News.  Hope you like it. https://banned.video/watch?id=5eb5e08f244ac5001d1d95b9

The Wall Street Journal's editorial board is asking why former President Obama commented on the Justice Department's decision to drop the case against former national security adviser Michael Flynn, asking "what he's really worried about." "Barack Obama is a lawyer, so it was stunning to read that he ventured into the Michael Flynn case in a way that misstated the supposed crime and ignored the history of his own Administration in targeting Mr. Flynn," the editorial board wrote. "Since the former President chose to offer his legal views when he didn’t need to, we wonder what he’s really worried about."...

Welcome, my friends, to Week 7,436,921 of Coronapocalypse shutdown, where the news gods have gifted us with a little change of pace: something to talk about that isn’t the plague. Barack “Scandal-Free” Obama is back in the daily news cycle, and this is probably the first time that the malignant narcissist isn’t happy about it. The Democrats are desperate to be doing a victory lap over their success ruining the economy, but the past is a nagging little thing, and it keeps showing up these days. As evidence mounts that the upper echelons of the Obama administration — include Obama...

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker defended Sunday his cautious economic reopening plan, which leaves schools and many businesses shuttered until the novel coronavirus is all but defeated, saying the state will be unable to return to normal “until we’re able to eradicate it.” “The truth is coronavirus is still out there. It hasn’t gone anywhere,” Mr. Pritzker said on CNN’s “State of the Union.” “So we all are going to have to change the way we do things until we’re able to eradicate it.”

New York's Gov. Andrew Cuomo and his political allies were quick to declare that President Trump had 'blood on his hands' based on the state's failure to prepare supplies for the coronavirus pandemic. It now comes to light that the bloody hands were Cuomo's. It's not just that the subways were continuously running packed, or New York City's schools took a long time to shut, or city officials were busy going to the gym, if not encouraging people to attend those Chinatown parades, the better to Get Trump. The worst of it was from the death toll coming out of New York City's nursing homes, where...

Few have deserved the 60 Plus Association’s Honorary Guardian of Seniors’ Rights Award more than Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.). From his courageous attempts to save Social Security to securing hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of grant money for aging and disability resource services, he has made safeguarding the well-being of senior citizens a hallmark of his long tenure in Washington. That’s why we here at 60 Plus are so encouraged to see his scheduling of a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing to examine the need for liability protections at this time of great need for all Golden Age Americans. Because...

This cop is a must see. He is reaching out to other cops telling them to stop trampling on the rights of Americans.

Govind Persad is assistant professor at the University of Denver Sturm College of Law. Ezekiel J. Emanuel is chairman of the Department of Medical Ethics and Health Policy at the University of Pennsylvania and a member of Joe Biden’s public health advisory committee. Countries and companies are considering certifications that a person has contracted and recovered from covid-19, or received a vaccine. Some call these “immunity passports.” Would such programs divide society and stigmatize disfavored groups, exacerbating the inequalities that covid-19 has laid bare? Or might they help repair the tension between the public health imperative to save lives and...

On March 25, 2020, the NY Department of Health issued an advisory to nursing homes stating: "No resident shall be denied re-admission or admission to the NH solely based on a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of COVID-19." That means cases of COVID-19 will most certainly rise every day. The American Medical Directors Association strongly opposed this advisory, stating yesterday: “Unsafe transfers will increase the risk of transmission in post-acute and long-term care facilities which will ultimately only serve to increase the return flow back to hospitals, overwhelming capacity, endangering more healthcare personnel, and escalating the death rate.”

Why jack up the numbers? Because they are, in reality, much lower? And they need bigger numbers to maintain totalitarian control. This is the biggest, most destructive hoax in world history. Doctors are doing their own research in hopes of getting more accurate information By: JTN, May 8, 2020: Frontline COVID-19 doctors this week have gone public saying they feel pressured to show COVID-19 as cause-of-death on certificates of patients suspected of having the virus when they also have had underlying medical conditions. Dr. Jonathan Fishbein, a clinical researcher, says the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the National Institute...

"NHs are prohibited from requiring a hospitalized resident who is determined medically stable to be tested for COVID-19 prior to admission or readmission."

This week saw two major legal developments: The government withdrew its prosecution of General Michael Flynn and the transcripts of the secret basement depositions by the Schiff House Committee on Intelligence were finally made public. Altogether they show a scandalous miscarriage of justice and media malpractice, which continues to this day, instigated by Barack Obama. 1. The Flynn CaseThis week the Department of Justice announced that it was withdrawing its prosecution case against General Flynn. Former president Obama leaked his talking points to the ever-compliant press flacks and former officials, claiming that there was no precedent for such a dismissal,...

In late April Dr. Tony Fauci made it clear he opposed the decision by Georgia Governor Brian Kemp to lift the lockdown orders in his state. “If I were advising the governor, I would tell him he should be careful. Going ahead and leapfrogging into phases where you should not be … I would advise him not to do that.” But Dr. Fauci was wrong again. In fact, it starting to look like this guy is NEVER right about anything? It must be nice having a government job and not have to worry about getting fired! Fauci and the critics...

Some of President Donald Trump’s top economic advisers emphasized on Sunday the importance of states getting more businesses and offices open even as the pandemic makes its way to the White House complex, forcing three members of the administration’s coronavirus task force into self-quarantine. The president and governors who will decide when to reopen their states are facing competing pressures. More economic activity and travel will likely lead to more people contracting COVID-19. But tight restrictions on which businesses can operate are causing millions of people to join the ranks of the unemployed. Decisions about how fast to reopen come...

Friday’s announcement of a new list of counties soon going to the “yellow” phase of Gov. Tom Wolf’s gradual reopening plan for Pennsylvania’s economy came and went and yet again, Mifflin and Juniata counties found themselves left off it. This latest group of counties is concentrated in the southwestern portion of the state — the closest to us going yellow in this group is Blair — and even includes Allegheny County, which is home to Pittsburgh, the state’s second-largest city. How exactly is a major metropolitan area and population center like Pittsburgh more ready to go yellow than rural Mifflin...

Gov. Andrew Cuomo is asking Samaritan’s Purse to pay state taxes after the Christian humanitarian organization discharged its last patient this week — one of the over 300 COVID-19 patients it treated at a temporary hospital in New York City’s Central Park while facing a backlash due to its statement of faith. “We’re not in a position to provide any subsidies right now because we have a $13 billion deficit,” Cuomo said at a daily press briefing this week, Fox News reported Friday. According to a New York state law, anyone working in the state for more than 14 days...

If Belleville, New Jersey, Mayor Michael Melham had COVID-19 in November of 2019 and the only place he had recently traveled to was Atlantic City, approximately 125 miles south, would that absolve Wuhan, China, of being the center of origin of the coronavirus? The answer depends on the legitimacy of the facts surrounding his illness and if China is or is not propagandizing whatever ailment the mayor claims to have contracted. The best way to get to the bottom of such a dilemma starts with the known facts. Mayor Melham told Fox News on Thursday (May 7) that he fell...
