The power of the false narrative of COVID continues to wreak havoc on people long after the medical emergency has ended. The Ohio Medical Board, for example, has indefinitely suspended Dr. Sherri Tenpenny’s license and fined her $3,000 after she criticized COVID vaccines in testimony before Ohio lawmakers in June 2021. Specifically, the board alleges that Dr. Tenpenny didn’t properly respond to its investigation of some 350 complaints after her testimony, which raised concerns about mRNA shot side effects such as heart inflammation. Never mind that the government has now admitted that myocarditis, pericarditis, and blood clots are caused by...

Now, why oh why would officials text about deploying a new variant? Hrm. Dr. Jay Bhattacharya shared screenshots of texts between UK Health Secretary Matt Hancock and Damon Poole from December of 2020, and gosh, golly gee, they were about ‘deploying the new variant.’ Yikes. This implies that they were ‘deploying’ other variants, yes? We should note that since these are screenshots we can neither confirm nor deny their authenticity HOWEVER … holy crap, you guys. If these are real? Take a look: Dec. 2020. UK Health Secretary Matt Hancock: "When do we deploy the new variant?" https://t.co/geFtC8wrcp pic.twitter.com/u3lr0EEKOe —...

Cleveland, Ohio, has informed city residents that their water is safe amid growing concerns about the environmental consequences from the derailment of a train hauling chemicals in the northeastern part of the state. In a statement, Cleveland Water notified residents that its drinking water comes from Lake Erie, which is “separate from the Ohio River and its watershed.” “There’s no indication that Lake Erie or its watershed have been impacted by the train derailment in East Palestine,” the department said in its statement. “The testing that we regularly perform would catch any changes to our source water should they arise.”...

Norfolk Southern Railroad and the Environmental Protection Agency released a list of chemicals and hazardous materials on Sunday carried by a train that derailed in East Palestine, Ohio. The derailment, which occurred on February 3, caused a fire that lasted several days. Officials decided to initiate a controlled release of the chemicals to mitigate the risk of an explosion; all residents within one mile of the crash site were told to evacuate, although they were permitted to return to their homes on February 8. Norfolk Southern provided the EPA with a list of cars affected by the crash and the...

Why can’t we get basic information about [the Covid vaccine] safety studies that were relied upon by the government as providing the basis for pushing it on the American people? Asked Tom Fitton, president of Judicial Watch, in his latest weekly update. “If it is as wonderful as they say, if it is as safe as they say, if it is as effective as they say, they will be happy, wouldn’t you think, to release all the studies that show that? But obviously, that’s not happening. “Judicial Watch has had to go to court repeatedly to get basic information about...

Labour has accused the UK government of establishing a “fake taskforce” to address supply chain disruption because it was dissolved weeks after it was announced. The National Economic Recovery Taskforce (Logistics) was announced on 14 September 2021 when supply disruption was peaking due to factors including a lorry driver shortage, but did not survive beyond a reshuffle on 21 October. Michael Gove had been appointed to head the cross-government committee. Labour Party deputy leader Angela Rayner said: “Instead of serious solutions, all they’ve got is gimmicks and fake announcements to grab cheap headlines, with no real plan to solve the...

New UC Riverside research shows soybean oil not only leads to obesity and diabetes, but could also affect neurological conditions like autism, Alzheimer’s disease, anxiety, and depression. Specifically, the scientists found pronounced effects of the oil on the hypothalamus, where a number of critical processes take place. “The hypothalamus regulates body weight via your metabolism, maintains body temperature, is critical for reproduction and physical growth as well as your response to stress,” “The dogma is that saturated fat is bad and unsaturated fat is good. Soybean oil is a polyunsaturated fat, but the idea that it’s good for you is...

One of the chief architects of the Affordable Care Act, known popularly as Obamacare, has on at least three occasions referred to you and me as either stupid or ignorant. Jonathan Gruber, a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has admitted (and even declared) that deceiving the American public, members of Congress and the Congressional Budget Office was necessary to pass the bill into law. Videos of these have surfaced and have been played on Fox News and on CNN. They are easily found by entering his name into a search engine. He is absolutely correct about “ignorant”, and...

AURORA, Colo. – James Holmes, the accused gunman in last Friday's midnight movie massacre in Colorado, mailed a notebook "full of details about how he was going to kill people" to a University of Colorado psychiatrist before the attack, but the parcel sat unopened in a mailroom for as long as a week before its discovery Monday, a law enforcement source told FoxNews.com.

In it President Bill Clinton is featured saying that Mr Obama took 'the harder and the more honourable path' in ordering that bin Laden be killed. The words 'Which path would Mitt Romney have taken?' are then displayed.

RENO, NV - U.S. Senate candidate Sharron Angle today said she is dismayed by the latest unemployment figures for Nevada and said they reflect “the utter failure of the Reid approach to the U.S. economy.” The newest numbers showed Nevada’s unemployment rate at 14 percent, the highest in the nation. During a Senate speech earlier today,Harry Reid stated that the Nevada economy “is getting better but not good.” Angle spokesman Jerry Stacy responded by saying things are not getting better but getting worse. “Reid’s response reflects just how out of touch Harry Reid is with the plight of Nevada families,”...

World Trade Center 7 Report Puts 9/11 Conspiracy Theory to Rest Conspiracy theorists have long claimed that explosives downed World Trade Center 7, north of the Twin Towers. The long-awaited report from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) conclusively rebuts those claims. Fire alone brought down the building, the report concludes, pointing to thermal expansion of key structural members as the culprit. The report also raises concerns that other large buildings might be more vulnerable to fire-induced structural failure than previously thought. (Thelink to article's video located at the botton of original article.) World Trade Center 7 stands...

** EXCERPT ** GAITHERSBURG -- Maryland: Fires in the 47-story office tower at the edge of the World Trade Center site undermined floor beams and critical structural columns, federal investigators concluded Thursday, as they attempted to curb still-rampant speculation that explosives or fuel fires had been responsible for the collapse of the building on Sept. 11, 2001. The long-delayed report by engineers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology in suburban Washington is intended to solve one of the lingering questions about the 2001 attacks: Why did the building at 7 World Trade Center fall, if it was not...

For decades, conventional wisdom has held that daylight-saving time, which begins March 9, reduces energy use. But a unique situation in Indiana provides evidence challenging that view: Springing forward may actually waste energy.(snip) (A University of California-Santa Barbara study of daylight savings time was conducted during the recent change in Indiana) Having the entire state switch to daylight-saving time each year, rather than stay on standard time, costs Indiana households an additional $8.6 million in electricity bills. "I've never had a paper with such a clear and unambiguous finding as this," says Mr. Kotchen, who presented the paper at a...

In the decade since TWA Flight 800 exploded off Long Island's South Shore, flying on commercial airlines has grown so much safer that the risk of dying in a plane crash has plunged to its lowest level in history. Improvements in technology and training -- and an added focus on safety spawned by Flight 800 in July 1996 and the ValuJet crash in Florida two months earlier -- have helped usher in an unprecedented period of air safety, experts say. In the past five years, the accident rate "has been brought to the brink of extinction," said Arnold Barnett, a...
