Friday on “Democracy Now!,” leftist political activist Noam Chomsky said President Donald Trump’s supporters at his rallies remind him of listening to the crowds at Hitler’s Nuremberg rallies. Host Amy Goodman asked, “Can you talk about what he’s threatening to do right now? First, they reject the WHO tests, that would have been critical, and now saying they’re going to defund the World Health Organization.” Chomsky said, “Well, this is typical behavior of autocrats and dictators. When you make colossal errors, which are killing thousands of people, find somebody else to blame. And in the United States, it’s, unfortunately, the...

“It was very uncomfortable for me when he would… [invoke] magical elixirs like hydroxychloroquine, because somebody told him it works. So when the press asked me, as painful as it was, I had to say, ‘No, that’s not true. Hydroxychloroquine doesn’t work. In fact, it can harm you. And, no, it [COVID] is not going to disappear like magic. So you’ve got to be careful and wear a mask.’” This is a complete lie by Fauci. He knew in 2005 that chloroquine (and hydroxychloroquine) was a "wonder drug" for SARS-CoV, according to his own NIH. Then he lied to demonize...

'The mandate negatively affected tens of thousands of service members – hundreds of thousands including spouses and children'.. A former Space Force officer's objection to the military's Biden-era COVID-19 vaccine mandate still haunts him over three years later... Joshua Zermeno, a former officer who dedicated part of his career to space superiority, having served in the U.S. military for 13 years. In August 2021, Zermeno objected to then-Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin's military COVID-19 shot mandate, questioning both its "efficacy and legality." For this, he received two Letters of Reprimand (LORs) and a "Do Not Promote" recommendation that blocked his...

Former President Joe Biden only signed one pardon by hand during his final weeks in office, and it was his most controversial one. The Justice Department is reviewing the list of people granted pardons by Biden amid new concerns about his use of an autopen to automatically sign documents and concerns about his state of mind and mental acuity in his final months in office. Biden used his final weeks as commander in chief to grant clemency and pardon more than 1,500 people in what his White House described as the largest single-day act of clemency by a U.S. president....

Our politicians are incapable of recognizing an obvious threat to the nation and addressing it, regardless of politics. This is despite an incident reported to have occurred last year, providing yet one more “dot” to be connected to substantiate the game plan China masterminded in 2003 to achieve the destruction of America. Congress fails to connect these dots, blinded by political motivations rather than our best interests. While the incident occurred in 2024, charges against those involved were just recently filed. Two Chinese nationals, Yunqing Jian, 33, and Zunyong Liu, 34, were caught smuggling a “dangerous biological pathogen” into the...

Everything is a cover-up. Nothing you hear is true. At least if it comes out of the mouths of Democrats and their mainstream media sycophants … or flows from their pens or keyboards. Turns out the Biden administration and the CDC knew the COVID-19 vaccines were dangerous but covered up that knowledge rather than properly inform the public. Big shock? Not to most of us. It also turns out the Biden administration knew cancer-causing chemicals were released into the local environment after the train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio. And it turns out again that they covered that little bit...

Dr. Lakshmi Panagiotakopoulos, a pediatric infectious disease expert and top CDC official, resigned on Tuesday as co-leader of the agency’s group that oversees updates to COVID-19 jab recommendations. Reuters first reported her resignation. This is the start to a great Birthday!!🎂 CDC official overseeing COVID-19 vaccine recommendations resigns – CBS News https://t.co/bNn66H01Cg — Brian Tyson, MD 🇺🇸 (@btysonmd) June 4, 2025 Per Reuters: Panagiotakopoulos said in an email to work group colleagues that her decision to step down was based on the belief she is “no longer able to help the most vulnerable members” of the U.S. population. In her...

On May 29, 2025, President Donald J. Trump issued a full and unconditional pardon to First Lieutenant Mark Bashaw -- the only service member in U.S. military history court-martialed for refusing to comply with unlawful COVID-19 mandates. It was a long-overdue act of justice, but a pardon, while powerful, doesn’t come close to honoring the enormity of what this man endured -- or what he represents. Mark Bashaw was never a criminal. He was never disloyal. He was a principled officer who stood on the Constitution, federal law, and his faith, and for that, the U.S. Army tried to destroy...

Democratic socialist mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani is surging, cutting ex-Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s frontrunner status in the Democratic primary to just a single digit lead, according to a new poll released Wednesday. The latest PIX 11/ Emerson College poll has the Queens state Assemblyman holding his own with Cuomo for 10 rounds of ranked-choice voting before being eliminated with a nine-point spread, 54.4% to 45.6%. But with less than a month to the June 24 Democratic mayoral primary, only a small fraction of voters appear to be up for grabs, with 3.5% of voters still undecided, according to the survey conducted...

Millions of Americans are set to no longer be routinely offered the Covid vaccine. HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Junior revealed today the the shot would not be recommended for healthy children and healthy pregnant women. RFK Jr said he 'couldn't be more pleased' to make the announcement, adding that it was 'common sense' and 'good science.' The move reverses previous guidance which recommended the Covid vaccine to everyone aged six months old and over. In a video on X revealing the announcement, RFK Jr said: 'Last year, the Biden administration urged healthy children to get another Covid shot despite...

Scott Adams, the influential author, cartoonist, and pundit, revealed Monday that he is suffering from metastasized prostate cancer — the same diagnosis President Joe Biden reported the day before. “I have the same cancer that Joe Biden has,” Adams said. “I also have prostate cancer that has also spread to my bones.” “My life expectancy is maybe this summer,” he said. He said that he was considering ending his own life, as California law allows, using self-administered drugs. “I’m in pain,” he said, “I’m always in pain.” He said he had come to terms with his condition. “It’s kind of...

One of the country’s top infectious disease experts, Dr. Anthony Fauci, called out anti-science sentiments and conspiracy theories during his commencement speech at the University of San Francisco.

"Those who perpetrated the greatest ruse in American presidential history by staging the Biden presidency will never tell us what their ultimate agenda was" — Victor Davis Hanson. One baseline truth in current American life is that our bodily well-being gets worse as the so-called health care industry gets ever-larger — it is now 17.6-percent of the economy (GDP). This is clearly the basis of the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) campaign that attached itself to the Trump 2.0 program. You hear almost no arguments against MAHA itself, even from the Party of Hustles and Hoaxes, but plenty of calumny...

It’s been a continuing mystery for three years, at least to me but many others too. In October 2020, in the midst of a genuine crisis, three scientists made a very short statement of highly public health wisdom, a summary of what everyone in the profession, apart from a few oddballs, believed only a year earlier. The astonishing frenzy of denunciation following that document’s release was on a level I’ve never seen before, reaching to the highest levels of government and flowing through the whole of media and tech. It was mind-boggling. For proof that nothing in the document was...

Though the week began with exciting news of a scientific breakthrough in reviving a long-gone species of animal, the brand-new dire wolves were reported to be extinct once again after being used as test subjects in new experiments performed by Dr. Anthony Fauci. Scientists at Colossal Biosciences held a somber press conference on Tuesday, only a day after their announcement that they had successfully brought back the extinct breed of wolves, to bring the unfortunate news to the public that Fauci's latest round of experiments had once again rendered the dire wolf extinct. "In hindsight, we probably shouldn't have given...

At least four times now Justice John Roberts has betrayed the conservatives. Further he has twisted the law and written decisions that were legal contortions inconsistent with his legal ability and history. What has been going on? What could have motivated him to betray his country and his legal integrity like that? It has been suggested that Roberts is secretly homosexual, and he did pro-bono work for gay activists back in 1996, but the stigma attached to that has effectively been removed by societal changes over the decades. He appears to be happily married in the normal sense. It has...

"They tried to kill us... They tried to sterilise us." Dr. Naomi Wolf exposes Pfizer's "intentional attack" on women and babies. "They killed the babies, and they knew it. They poisoned the breast milk, and they knew it... They lowered the sperm count, and they knew it." "This is satanic on a massive level... the fact that they knew they were doing this, which—if you read the Pfizer papers—you cannot conclude otherwise."

Chancellors Merkel and Scholz are said to have kept secret an explosive intelligence assessment of how the pandemic beganGerman spies were almost certain that the Covid pandemic originated in a Wuhan laboratory, only for successive chancellors to bury the potentially explosive intelligence assessment, according to reports. Investigations by the newspapers Zeit and Süddeutsche Zeitung found that the chancellery of Angela Merkel commissioned the foreign intelligence agency, the Federal Intelligence Service (BND), to assess the origins of the virus in 2020. The BND analysed public data and material obtained as part of an intelligence operation codenamed Saaremaa. This included scientific data...

The American media is doing its best to ignore the biggest news this week. Nope, not Covid’s fifth anniversary. You may have noticed that every legacy media outlet is reminding you it’s been exactly five years since the Little Epidemic That Could started its long chug into your lungs, or at least your upper respiratory tract. In reality, they’re as wrong about the date as everything else Covid. People started getting sick in Wuhan in December 2019. Or was it November? Maybe even October? Whatever, the Chinese have made sure we’ll never know. But it was March 11, 2020 when...

A pair of Republican senators are asking the Trump administration to investigate Planned Parenthood for potential financial fraud stemming from the COVID era, as Congress moves to allow continued prosecutions for COVID-related fraud. Senators Joni Ernst (R-Iowa) and Rand Paul (R-Ky.) recently sent a letter to Kelly Loeffler, head of the Small Business Administration (SBA), asking her to look into Planned Parenthood’s “unlawful” collection of over $100 million in Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) funds and to provide Congress with related documents which the Biden administration previously withheld. According to the senators, Planned Parenthood affiliates were alerted in the first half...
