Reports of More American Troops Entering Syria – What Is Biden Doing and Does He Know He’s Doing It?

A US convoy of trucks is entering Northern Syria per reports from that country. Why is senile old Biden doing this and why is he keeping it a secret? Does he even know it’s happening?

During President Trump’s time in office, ISIS was obliterated in the Middle East. That evil group was annihilated in a matter of months after festering and growing during the Obama years. ISIS’s leader was killed in an operation named after an American girl whom he raped repeatedly and daily for months.

Iran was then put in a box and prevented from pushing terrorism in the region. Iran’s evil military and terrorist leader, Qasem Soleimani, was killed.

Joe Biden backing ‘Putin is a killer’ claim is ‘tantrum of powerlessness’ & attack on whole of Russia, country’s top MP declares

Explosive comments made by US President Joe Biden, in which he suggested his Russian counterpart is “a killer,” have ignited a diplomatic row, as Moscow’s chief parliamentarian said the remarks constitute an attack on the country.

In a statement posted to Telegram, the speaker of the State Duma, Vyacheslav Volodin, said that “Biden has insulted the citizens of our country with his statement” about Vladimir Putin. “This is a tantrum that comes from powerlessness. Putin is our president, attacking him is an attack on our country,” he added.

Volodin contrasted the tone of the criticism to that of previous US presidents, who, despite often overseeing tense relations with Russia, and the USSR before it, maintained mutual respect. Even former president Donald Trump, he claimed, “despite the decisions that were being made on sanctions, maintained rhetoric appropriate to the level of head of state.”

However, he argued, “Biden’s statement today is beyond common sense. This is no way for the leader of a country that claims to be a bearer of democratic principles and morality to behave.“

The American president made the remarks in an interview on Wednesday with the ABC news channel. He was asked by chief anchor George Stephanopoulos whether he believed Russian President Vladimir Putin was “a killer.”“Mmm-hmm, I do,” Biden replied.

Biden said he had warned Putin earlier this year that he would take action if evidence was found of Russian interference in the 2020 US election. “He will pay a price,” Biden said. “We had a long talk, he and I … I know him relatively well. And the conversation started off, and I said, ‘I know you and you know me. If I establish this occurred, then be prepared.’”

Earlier this week, a joint report by Washington’s spy agencies declared that Russia had attempted to influence the 2020 vote with the aim of “denigrating President Biden’s candidacy and the Democratic Party, supporting former President Trump, undermining public confidence in the electoral process, and exacerbating sociopolitical divisions in the US.”

The Kremlin has denied the claims, with Putin’s spokesman, Dmitry Peskov, insisting that “Russia did not interfere in previous elections and did not interfere with the elections mentioned in the 2020 report.” “Russia had nothing to do with any campaigns against any of the candidates. In this regard, we consider this report to be incorrect.”

Netflix's 'Paradise PD' under fire after airing graphic, anti-NRA episode of Jesus carrying out mass killing, having a threesome with 2 women

As highlighted by Newsbusters, season three episode "Trigger Warning" features a "gun-wielding Jesus" and "turns into a porno."

The season's fourth episode addressed gun control and legislation by "ridiculing white male gun owners for using guns as a replacement for testosterone."

"Paradise's police chief confesses to needing a gun to get an erection and the head of the NRA says the initials stand for 'Nards Removed Association,'" the outlet notes. "The script is off-the-wall, even for this totally unrealistic series."

In the episode, one of the cartoon police officers is concerned over gun violence and tries to effect "sensible gun control" reform in the department through his father, the police chief.

One officer responds, "Give it a rest. I'm sick of you liberals acting like guns are the only dangerous thing in society. Mayonnaise kills people."

The officer tells his mother, the mayor, that she should do something to enact gun control across the city.

"The chief says before she turns Paradise into 'Communist Canada,' he'll take them on a tour of the NRA," Newsbusters reports. "Kevin agrees to go in exchange for his father watching the Moore video."

The tour, according to the outlet, "includes a gun pit with a dead kid buried in it" as well as the corpse of the late actor and Second Amendment activist Charlton Heston as a statue with the quote, "Pry this gun from my cold, dead hands and win a Republican Senate seat."

During the tour, a faux NRA head — named in the cartoon "Mr. Chip F***-Yeah" — then goes on to show the chief and his son a disturbing video portraying what the world would have looked like if guns existed in Jesus' day.

The video, according to the outlet, features "Jesus as a prop to show how 'guns make a better world.'"

"The video is horrifically offensive, with Jesus coming down from the cross to kill his persecutors with machine guns and then have sex with two women," the report continues.

It continues in a similar vein from there.

GOP Senators Accuse Biden Of Breaking Law, Sparking 'Humanitarian Crisis' With Border Wall Halt

Forty Senate Republicans have accused President Joe Biden of breaking federal budget law when he suspended the construction of a southern border wall, and say the halt contributed to the current crisis involving illegal border crossings, according to Bloomberg.

On Wednesday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) ad 39 other Senate Republicans demanded that the Government Accountability Office (GAO) investigate Biden for a potential violation of a 1974 act forbidding the executive branch from refusing to spend Congressionally-appropriated funds.

"On Jan. 20, in one of the first official acts of his presidency, Joseph Biden suspended border wall construction and ordered a freeze of funds provided by Congress for that purpose. In the weeks that followed, operational control of our southern border was compromised and a humanitarian and national security crisis has ensued," states the letter. "The President’s actions directly contributed to this unfortunate, yet entirely avoidable scenario. They are also a blatant violation of federal law and infringe on Congress’s constitutional power of the purse."

The letter, organized by Sen. Shelly Moore Capito (R-WV) who sits on the Homeland Security spending panel, asks GAO head Gene Dodaro to render a legal opinion on whether Biden violated the Impoundment Control Act.

"We have to recognize that words have consequences and actions have consequences," said Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY). "When the Biden Administration refuses to enforce our immigration laws, when they refuse to build the wall, when they pass legislation like the bill that we passed yesterday that includes money for illegal immigrants, this is what happens."

Former Missouri Governor Eric Greitens says Biden's border policy has created a 'national security crisis' and a 'public health crisis.'

Sen. Joni Ernst: U.S. Funded Wuhan Institute of Virology Coronavirus Research with NIH Grants

“Through our research and some great researchers out there working in various levels of the press, they have discovered that through the NIH, we did have grant dollars that went to the Wuhan Institute of Virology,” Ernst said in an interview with Breitbart News Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow on SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Daily.

She continued, “This project that they had at Wuhan was being subsidized by U.S. taxpayers … I am going to the Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General to investigate and get to the bottom of this. I also have a bill which would require every project from all of our federal agencies that are supported with federal funds to include a price tag with the cost so that it is easily found by taxpayers.”

“So yes, we have actually subsidized research at the Wuhan lab — how scary — and for a number of years we actually had U.S. diplomats that were warning us about the dangers associated with this lab, and yet we were subsidizing it,” Ernst stated.

Marlow identified the Wuhan virology lab as a possible origin of the novel coronavirus outbreak.

“We don’t really know whether or not the the lab is [connected] to the virus, because China destroyed all this evidence,” Marlow remarked.

Ernst replied, “We can’t connect the dots. We haven’t been able to do that for certain, but the implication is out there, and regardless of the coronavirus, we do know that our dollars were pouring into communist China to support [this] research being done at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. How disappointing that we are sending our dollars to communist China when we should be using those dollars right here in our own country to do our own research with our own resources. … It is truly an outrage. I don’t care if it’s ten cents; it’s still an outrage whatever the number.”

The National Institute of Health (NIH) sent at least $600,000 to China’s state-run virology laboratory in Wuhan via EcoHealth Alliance (EHA), a left-wing nonprofit based in New York City that alleges a link between “climate change” and pandemics. EcoHealth Alliance failed to disclose the money it sent to the Chinese government’s Wuhan laboratory came from an NIH grant, the Daily Caller reported.

Virtually all of EcoHealth’s revenue comes from government contracts and grants.

DHS Chief Mayorkas Refuses To Call Border Surge A ‘Crisis’

Alejandro Mayorkas, the secretary for homeland security, refused to call the situation at the southern U.S. border a “crisis” during a House hearing on Wednesday, even though he acknowledged earlier this week that border apprehensions are on pace to reach levels not seen in 20 years.

“Mr. Ranking Member, I’m not spending any time on the language that we use,” Mayorkas told Republican Rep. John Katko during a House Homeland Security Committee hearing when asked if the surge should be characterized as a crisis.

Katko stated that border patrol officials have referred to the recent influx of migrants “a crisis.”

“I am spending time on operational response to the situation at the border,” Mayorkas told Katko. “That’s what I’m focused on.”

On Sunday, Mayorkas directed the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to set up shelters near the border to house unaccompanied children.

West Point Hosted Chair Of Top Chinese Influence Org, Ran Exchange Programs With CCP-Run Colleges.

The United States Military Academy at West Point hosted the Chairman of the Chinese Communist Party’s top propaganda effort that seeks to “influence foreign governments and other actors to take actions or adopt positions supportive of Beijing’s preferred policies” as a speaker, The National Pulse can reveal.

The United States Military Academy (USMA) has also partnered with state-run Chinese universities – including institutions accused of doubling as espionage and cyberattack training grounds and Xi Jinping’s alma mater – on exchange programs.

What’s more, West Point leadership has visited the China-based schools to call for increased collaboration, including a former superintendent “inviting national defense students at Peking University to attend the annual military training and competition at USMA.”

West (CC)Point.

The group – the China United States-Exchange Foundation (CUSEF) – saw founder Tung Chee-hwa speak at the West Point campus in 2012.

CUSEF brochures reveal that West Point was one of several American institutions Tung spoke

Jebb also visited Tsinghua University to “engage in dialogue with Chen Xu, Chairperson of the University Council, to facilitate further education cooperation and exchanges between the two institutions.”

“During the meeting, both sides showed great respect and admiration for the institutions that each represents,” an event summary notes before adding Jebb “hoped that the two institutions will conduct more collaboration in various areas in the future.”

Former West Point superintendent Robert Caslen also visited Peking University, praising the fact that “nearly 60 students of USMA had studied Chinese at PKU as exchange students since a Chinese language project was initiated in 2007.”

Caslen “gave sincere compliments to this exchange program,” according to an event summary which also revealed he “invited national defense students at Peking University to attend the annual military training and competition at USMA.”

Later on, both sides suggested that the current cooperation should be deepened and a multi-level exchange program should be established, so that students from both schools can benefit more. For example, to provide Peking University students with the opportunities to study as short-term exchange students at USMA, and USMA students to participate in a variety of majors besides Chinese language. In the end, superintendent Caslen invited national defense students at Peking University to attend the annual military training and competition at USMA.

Texas AG Ken Paxton Expands Scope of Google Antitrust Lawsuit

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is expanding the scope of his multi-state antitrust lawsuit against Google to include the tech giant’s planned overhaul of its use of website usage tracking technology known as “cookies.”

Four additional states and Puerto Rico have also joined Paxton’s lawsuit against the tech giant, which alleges Google maintains a monopoly in the digital ads market.

Via Politico:

Google’s plan to remove advertisers’ ability to track users across the web in its Chrome browser will entrench the search giant’s power over the ad buying market, state antitrust prosecutors led by Texas said Tuesday.

In an update to an existing antitrust suit, Texas and 14 other states and territories accused Google of using its browser to try to “wall off” the open internet.

“Google’s new scheme limits competitors’ ability to compete with Google and the massive amount of user data that it has accumulated,” the states said in the new complaint. “Google’s upcoming cookie changes in the name of privacy are a ruse to further Google’s longstanding plan to advantage itself by creating a closed ecosystem out of the open web.”

As Breitbart News previously reported, Google’s decision to phase out cookies from its Chrome browser doesn’t mean the company will stop tracking users or collecting their data:

Google is banning third-party cookies in its Chrome browser, meaning companies other than the Internet giant will not be able to plant cookies on internet users through Chrome. However, the proposed policy does not eliminate cookies altogether — Google itself will still be able to use them, effectively giving itself total control over its users’ data.

Google has branded its new system the “Privacy Sandbox,” but in reality, nothing will change about the vast amount of browsing data collected through Chrome. It will simply be data that is held by Google rather than its competitors, supplementing the vast amount of personal data that it collects through other products and services, including Chromebooks, Android phones and tablets, Gmail, Google Docs, Google Maps, YouTube, and of course Google Search.

Yesterday, four new states and the territory of Puerto Rico joined Paxton’s lawsuit, bringing the total number of plaintiffs to 15 states and territories. The new states joining the lawsuit are Alaska, Florida, Montana, and Nevada.

‘Marxists’ Hijacking Sarah Everard Death, Says Farage After WW2 Memorial Defaced

Brexit leader Nigel Farage has condemned “Marxists” for “hijacking” the protests related to the killing of London woman Sarah Everard, after a memorial to the Second World War was defaced with graffiti declaring “ACAB” (“all cops are bastards”) and branding Sir Winston Churchill a “racist”.

Hundreds of people had gathered in Westminster, London, for the third day to demonstrate alleged heavy-handed policing at the vigil for 33-year-old marketing executive Sarah Everard, whose remains were found in an Ashford woodland last week. A serving London police officer has been charged with her murder and appeared in court this week.

The Sun reported that some protesters had defaced the memorial on the Victoria Embankment honouring the dead airmen who fought in the Battle of Britain, scrawling “ACAB” above the plaques bearing the names of the men who gave their lives to defeat fascism.

Far-left activists also scratched out the name under a quote of wartime prime minister Winston Churchill, writing underneath with arrows pointing above, “racist” — the same allegation branded twice on Churchill’s Parliament Square statue plinth, once by Black Lives Matter (BLM) and then by Extinction Rebellion activists in the summer of 2020.

The tabloid also reported scuffles between police and protesters, with demonstrators throwing objects at officers.

Commenting on the report, Nigel Farage said on Wednesday: “More desecration of war monuments and the Churchill statue in London overnight. The Marxists among us are now playing the anti-police card after hijacking Sarah Everard’s murder.”

Police Told Mother of Rape Gang Victim, 12, That She Was ‘Prostituting Herself’

West Midlands Police officers are accused of telling an alleged rape gang victim, aged 12, that she was “lying” about her abuse, and told her mother she was “prostituting herself”.

“I was 12 or 13 when I went with my mum to the police to report the first rape. But a female police officer accused me of lying and that just broke me. I went off the rails after that,” said the alleged victim, given the pseudonym ‘Karen’ by BirmingahLive, who was targeted by a so-called grooming gang operating in Walsall.

Her mother told the local media outlet that she would “have to pick her up at the police station after she was found by them, sometimes at hotels” and that officers told her “we think your daughter is prostituting herself”.

“I could have dropped to my knees at that point because we were talking about a young girl,” she lamented.

The allegations echo many other findings of failure by the police, social services, and other authorities on the vexed question of so-called grooming gangs, which are comprised predominantly of Mulsim, South Asian heritage predators who target mostly white, working-class victims.

Police long feared tackling the issue, which is ongoing, due to fears of being branded racist, and refused to intervene when underage girls and young women were pimped out and raped by dozens of men on the grounds that they were making “lifestyle choices” — despite the fact that sexual relations with minors and in particular under-13s is in all circumstances very much a criminal matter.

California Bill Seeks To Ban Police Offers Who Have Expressed Religious Or Conservative Views

A new bill introduced in the California State Assembly seeks to root out police officers who have made public comments supporting religious or conservative views.

The Federalist reported that the bill purports to simply remove officers who have engaged in “hate speech” or are affiliated with a “hate group.” The way the bill is written, however, many officers would lose their jobs or be prohibited from serving merely for stating their religious or conservative beliefs.The bill, deceptively called the California Law Enforcement Accountability Reform Act or CLEAR Act, was introduced by State Rep. Ash Kalra (D-San Jose) and claims that it would stop “the infiltration of extremists in our law enforcement agencies” and mandate a background check for any officer who has “exchanged racist and homophobic messages.”

Kalra, the Federalist reported, insisted the bill was necessary to combat “the apparent cooperation, participation, and support of some law enforcement” in the January 6 Capitol riot in Washington, D.C.

But as the Federalist reported, the bill broadly defines hate speech as “as advocating or supporting the denial of constitutional rights of, the genocide of, or violence towards, any group of persons based upon race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, or disability.”Pacific Justice Institute Senior Staff Attorney Matthew McReynolds wrote earlier this month in opposition of the bill, insisting that it would label Christians, Muslims, and conservatives as “hateful” due to certain beliefs.

“Under the guise of addressing police gangs, the bill at the same time launches an inexplicable, unwarranted, and unprecedented attack on peaceable, conscientious officers who happen to hold conservative political and religious views,” McReynolds wrote. “Indeed, this is one of the most undisguised and appalling attempts we have ever seen, in more than 20 years of monitoring such legislation, on the freedom of association and freedom to choose minority viewpoints.”

More from the Federalist:

The California GOP currently states in its platform that it believes in traditional marriage and does not believe that Obergefell v. Hodges, the landmark Supreme Court case on same-sex marriage decided in 2015, can “coerce a church or religious institution into performing marriages that their faith does not recognize.”

According to this new Democratic bill, disagreeing on moral or religious grounds with homosexuality would technically mean the state GOP is espousing hate speech.

Greg Burt, Director of Capitol Engagement with the California Family Council told the Federalist that the bill would keep qualified people from serving based on political beliefs.

“Should the state now ban from public service qualified, fair-minded people who happen to hold religious or political views that conflict with controversial Supreme Court decisions on marriage and abortion?” Burt asked. “This is a blatantly unconstitutional violation of religious liberty and freedom of speech. It is also a tyrannical abuse of power from a politician seeking to ruin the lives of those he disagrees with.”

Biden signals he may break Trump's deal to withdraw from Afghanistan by May 1

President Joe Biden said Monday that it will be "tough" to meet a deadline to withdraw the remaining U.S. forces in Afghanistan by a deadline agreed to by the Trump administration.

In an interview with ABC host George Stephanopoulos on "Good Morning America," Biden was asked if the U.S. will keep its commitment to withdraw U.S. troops by May 1. Biden said he is "in the process" of determining when the troops will come home.

"The fact is that that was not a very solidly negotiated deal that the president — the former president — worked out. And so we're in consultation with our allies as well as the government, and that decision's going to be — it's in process now," Biden said.

Last year, former President Donald Trump negotiated a peace deal with the Taliban to end the 19-year U.S. war in Afghanistan. Trump agreed to pull U.S. forces from the region in exchange for commitments on peace talks.

When the deal was struck, the U.S. had more than 12,000 troops stationed in Afghanistan. Over the course of last year, President Trump began withdrawing troops. Today, about 2,500 troops were thought to remain in the country, but the New York Times reported on Sunday that there are also 1,000 special operations forces stationed there.

When asked how much longer the troops will stay, Biden said, "I don't think a lot longer," adding that the May 1 deadline "could happen, but it is tough."

The president laid blame for the delay on the previous administration. "The failure to have an orderly transition from the Trump presidency to my presidency … has cost me time and consequences," he said.

The agreement Trump reached with the Taliban did not include the Afghani government, and U.S. intelligence later reported that the Taliban had "no intention of abiding by their agreement."

eBron James blasts 'coward a**' massage parlor shooter accused of killing eight and joins Jeremy Lin in supporting Asian Americans: 'You're loved, seen and IMPORTANT'

Calling accused Georgia massage parlor shooter Robert Aaron Long a 'coward a** young man,' LeBron James offered support to America's Asian community on Wednesday following the tragic killing of eight people, including six Asian women, in the Atlanta area on Tuesday night.

'My condolences goes out to the families of all the victims and the entire Asian community tonight on what transpired in Atlanta at the Aromatherapy Spa,' James wrote in a social media post, adding, 'Just senseless and tragic!!.'

Long, a 21-year-old Georgia man, has been arrested following three separate shootings at Atlanta-area massage parlors. Police do not currently believe the attacks were racially motivated, although six of the victims were Asian and there has been a reported increase in anti-Asian violence and harassment during the pandemic.

Jeremy Lin, a Taiwanese-American former NBA star and an outspoken advocate for the Asian community, also reacted on social media.

Microchips are getting under the skin of thousands in Sweden

Thousands of people in Sweden are inserting tiny microchips under their skin — making their lives much easier as they no longer have to carry IDs, gym passes, and keycards to get into work.

But it’s not without data risks.

Will microchip implants be the next big thing in Europe?

About 3,000 Swedes have inserted the tiny chips into their bodies over the past three years, according to AFP.

The electronic tags are about the size of a grain of rice and are implanted in the back of the hand via a syringe.

“The technology is incredibly convenient,” said Ben Libberton, a microbiologist working for MAX IV Laboratory, to Euronews.

Many employees use them to get into their office buildings, as a gym pass, to buy food from vending machines, and even instead of using train tickets.

In a year, some 130 passengers signed up for Sweden’s SJ national railway microchip reservation service.

Twitter coming in with that quick ‘fact-check’ on the AstraZeneca vaccine

AstraZeneca was paused today in a handful of countries, more pausing it by the hour, on reports on increased blood clots and blood-related problems post-AstraZeneca jab. Twitter, doing their part, have already put a statement at the top that there is no link. Twitter, a social media site that has been able to influence things of late with their ‘fact checks,’ quickly knows better than Germany, Indonesia, the Netherlands, and health ministers around the globe.

Data Leak Shows Regulators Had Major Concerns About Pfizer’s mRNA Vaccine

Leaked documents show that some early commercial batches of Pfizer-BioNTech’s COVID-19 vaccine had lower than expected levels of intact mRNA, prompting wider questions about how to assess this novel vaccine platform.

As it conducted its analysis of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine in December, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) was the victim of a cyberattack. More than 40 megabytes of classified information from the agency’s review were published on the dark web, and several journalists — including from The BMJ — and academics worldwide were sent copies of the leaks. They came from anonymous email accounts and most efforts to interact with the senders were unsuccessful. None of the senders revealed their identity, and the EMA says it is pursuing a criminal investigation.

The BMJ has reviewed the documents, which show that regulators had major concerns over unexpectedly low quantities of intact mRNA in batches of the vaccine developed for commercial production.

EMA scientists tasked with ensuring manufacturing quality — the chemistry, manufacturing and control aspects of Pfizer’s submission to the EMA — worried about “truncated and modified mRNA species present in the finished product.” Among the many files leaked to The BMJ, an email dated Nov. 23 by a high ranking EMA official outlined a raft of issues. In short, commercial manufacturing was not producing vaccines to the specifications expected, and regulators were unsure of the implications. EMA responded by filing two “major objections” with Pfizer, along with a host of other questions it wanted addressed.

The email identified “a significant difference in % RNA integrity/truncated species” between the clinical batches and proposed commercial batches — from around 78% to 55%. The root cause was unknown and the impact of this loss of RNA integrity on safety and efficacy of the vaccine was “yet to be defined,” the email said.

Ultimately, on Dec. 21, EMA authorized Pfizer-BioNTech’s vaccine. The agency’s public assessment report, a technical document published on its website, noted, “the quality of this medicinal product, submitted in the emergency context of the current (COVID-19) pandemic, is considered to be sufficiently consistent and acceptable.

It’s unclear how the agency’s concerns were satisfied. According to one of the leaked emails dated Nov. 25, positive news had come from an undisclosed source in the US: “The latest lots indicate that % intact RNA are back at around 70 – 75%, which leaves us cautiously optimistic that additional data could address the issue,” the email said.

Destruction of the middle class

I know you guys are noticing the growing rise in unemployment, inflation, and policies biden and his administration are putting out. We are in the beginning of the end and if you don’t see what’s coming in the next few years idk what to tell you. The middle class is being destroyed and they are doing it in a way almost nobody is noticing. Gas prices are predicted to be around 4 dollars by summer. The price of food and houses are rising as well. Making those with no job or people on low paying jobs struggle even more. The government has been pumping money into the economy and people are praising them but they seem to have no concept about where it’s coming from. News flash our country is in major debt and we give money to so many other countries it’s ridiculous and the fact that the printing of more money for these relief bills do nothing but make it harder for the working class pushing them out of security and into poverty. Anybody else who has been effected by this or wants to elaborate is appreciated.

20+ Countries Suspend Use of AstraZeneca Vaccine, But Regulators Insist ‘Benefits Outweigh Risks’

WHO and the EMA are investigating reports of blood clot-related injuries and deaths after the AstraZeneca COVID vaccine, but both say there’s no reason to stop using the vaccines.

More than 20 countries have either suspended or said they will delay Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccinations based on reports of deaths or injuries — in most cases related to blood clots — in healthy people who received the vaccine.

Prosecutors in Northern Italy announced Monday they had seized a batch of 393,600 shots of the AstraZeneca COVID vaccine following the death of a 57-year-old man hours after he was vaccinated, reported Reuters.

Meanwhile the World Health Organization (WHO) is standing firm in its support of the vaccine. In a press conference today, WHO Director General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said, “This does not necessarily mean these events [deaths and injuries] are linked to the vaccine, but it’s routine practice to investigate them, and it shows that the surveillance system works and effective controls are in place.”

According to news reports, WHO’s vaccine safety experts were meeting today to discuss the vaccine. WHO had previously said that an ongoing analysis by its vaccines advisory committee has not established a causal link between the vaccine and blood clots and countries should keep using it, reported The Telegraph.

Regulators in Europe also defended the vaccine telling news outlets that the “benefits outweigh the risks.” Still, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) is investigating reports of blood clots in vaccine recipients and will release its findings Thursday, according to Nasdaq.com.

EMA Executive Director Emer Cooke said today during a news conference that there was no indication the incidents, which she called “very rare,” had been caused by the vaccine, but experts were assessing that possibility.

The AstraZeneca vaccine, not yet approved for emergency use in the U.S., is being distributed under WHO’s COVAX program, funded by Bill Gates. The company plans to file for Emergency Use Authorization with the U.S Food and Drug Administration in the upcoming weeks.

In Italy, Piedmont’s regional government suspended use of AstraZeneca’s batch ABV5811, which is different than the batch of AstraZeneca vaccine seized last week in Sicily after the sudden deaths of two men who had recently been vaccinated.

The Italian government had previously said there was no evidence of a connection between the deaths and the vaccine, and had allowed the AstraZeneca vaccine to continue to be administered even after other countries had suspended use of the vaccine.

In addition to Italy, France, Iceland, Denmark, Cyprus, Luxembourg, Latvia, Estonia and The Netherlands have suspended or delayed the AstraZeneca vaccine.

Audio That Debunked Fraudulent Trump Quotes Found On GA State Government Device: Report

An audio recording that forced multiple major news outlets to issue corrections to stories that attributed fraudulent quotes to former President Donald Trump was reportedly found on the device of the chief investigator of the Georgia secretary of state’s office.

Trump made a call to the chief investigator, Frances Watson, on Dec. 23 to discuss alleged fraud in the 2020 election, asking her to look into votes cast in Fulton County, Georgia, especially. Reports of the call published the next month by The Washington Post, CNN, and others quoted Trump as telling Watson to “find the fraud” and claiming she would be a “national hero” if she did.An audio recording of the call published last week showed that Trump made neither statement, debunking news outlets’ claims that were sourced back to a single anonymous source.

The recording of the call was obtained through an open records request to the Georgia secretary of state’s office. Officials reportedly located the file in a trash folder on Watson’s device, according to CNN. As the outlet reported on Monday:

Officials in the Georgia Secretary of State’s Office located a recently released recording of former President Donald Trump’s call to a state investigator in a trash folder on her device, a state official familiar with the situation confirmed to CNN.

The discovery of the call comes after state officials originally told CNN that they did not think audio of the call existed. The call added to the examples of Trump’s extraordinary efforts to push false claims of widespread voter fraud and influence Georgia election officials as they certified the state’s election results.

The audio file of the December 23 call between the former President and investigator Frances Watson was discovered as the Georgia Secretary of State’s Office responded to a public records request. The personal familiar spoke with CNN on the condition of anonymity to describe the internal process.Trump responded to the media scandal in a statement on Monday. The former president thanked the Post, the first outlet to publish the fraudulent quotes, for correcting the story while accusing the larger media of having bias that against Republicans.

“You will notice that establishment media errors, omissions, mistakes, and outright lies always slant one way — against me and against Republicans. Meanwhile, stories that hurt Democrats or undermine their narratives are buried, ignored, or delayed until they can do the least harm — for example, after an election is over,” Trump said.

“Look no further than the negative coverage of the vaccine that preceded the election and the overdue celebration of the vaccine once the election had concluded. A strong democracy requires a fair and honest press,” he added. “This latest media travesty underscores that legacy media outlets should be regarded as political entities — not journalistic enterprises. In any event, I thank the Washington Post for the correction.”

'We are completely in the dark': Arizona mayor says Biden admin refuses to give info about illegal aliens it plans to drop off in his town

Gila Bend, Arizona, Mayor Chris Riggs has had it with the Biden administration's handling of the ongoing border crisis (which the White House still refuses to admit is a crisis).

According to Riggs, there's a deluge of illegal aliens coming to his town, courtesy of the federal government, and the administration is keeping him and his fellow residents in the dark about what it has planned.

What's going on?

Riggs told Fox News' "Your World" Monday that Gila Bend is being made into what the outlet called "a waypoint for illegal immigrants captured by federal authorities."

The mayor said his community is "very economically depressed" and cannot handle a massive influx of illegals.

But the feds don't appear to care, as the Border Patrol prepares to drop people off in Gila Bend and force the town to fend for itself, Riggs said.

"We can barely afford to take care of the people that we have here in our community now, and as of the second [of March], the Border Patrol advised us that they're going to drop people off here and [say], 'They're your problem,'" he said. "We just do not have the ability to care for these people. Quite frankly, it's going to cost us tens of thousands of dollars a year to be able just to provide them with a bottle of water and a sandwich when they get dropped off."

According to Riggs, President Joe Biden's border officials are refusing to give him any information about the plan or the people who are reportedly going to be shipped there — including the number of illegals and their COVID infection rates.

"We are completely in the dark," Riggs said.

"I have a lot of seniors and elders here … that are susceptible to COVID," he added, "and now you're going to drop people off here?"

The mayor said he has asked the government for crime and health information to keep his people safe — especially considering Gila Bend has not seen the same COVID outbreaks that the rest of Arizona has — but that the feds have given him nothing.

"We've asked [for] documentation, some kind of documentation. Give us something. We're still not getting anything," Riggs said. "We're really frustrated with how we're being treated for a crisis that [the federal government] started."

Riggs said Gila Bend has seen a massive increase in foot traffic and a surge in "drug mules like I've never seen before."

"It needs to stop. And the federal government has to step up and do their job," he said. "They're the ones who created this problem; they need to fix it."

Over $200 billion in unemployment may have been paid to fraudulent claims

They just keep lying. To be fair, it’s not like they face any actual consequences.

Biden’s fake claims about coronavirus vaccine unseemly.

President Biden’s blatant attempt to steal the credit for the so far successful coronavirus vaccine rollout is unseemly and inaccurate — revealing just how insecure Biden is when it comes to the political optics of his new administration.

The White House is so desperate to wipe away any vestige of Donald Trump’s administration that it’s resorting to fake claims about the vaccine and pumping up Biden’s alleged heroics.

In his address to the nation last week, Biden made several totally “misleading” claims that even the liberal New York Times and CNN were able to uncover.

The Democratic president said the beginning stages of the virus in 2020 were “met with silence and spread unchecked, denials for days, weeks, then months.”

Excuse me, Trump silent?

Not even the most sycophantic Biden booster would say that the former president was quiet.

In fact he put together the coronavirus task force in early 2020 and gave a March speech to the nation from the Oval Office on the virus.

Trump surely tried to downplay the severity of the virus for months, but he held near daily briefings, subjecting himself to harsh questions from the media.

Here’s another whopper — Biden’s statement that “two months ago this country didn’t have enough vaccine supply to vaccinate all or anywhere near all of the American public. But soon we will.”
