Fox 26 Reporter Who Announced She Went to Project Veritas Live on Air Has Been Suspended — Posts Audio of the Call

The Fox 26 reporter who went mega viral on Monday night for announcing that she went to Project Veritas about the company live on air has been suspended — and posted audio of the call online.

Ivory Hecker started off her segment about air conditioning with an announcement that she has been “muzzled” by Fox Corp.

“I want to let you the viewers know that Fox Corp has been muzzling me to keep certain information from you, the viewer. And from what I’m gathering I’m not the only reporter being subjected to this. I am going to be releasing some recordings about what goes on behind the scenes at Fox because it applies to you the viewer. I found a non-profit journalism group called Project Veritas who is going to help put that out TOMORROW, so tune into them.”

On Tuesday morning, Project Veritas released audio of a phone call from the station’s assistant news director Lee Meier telling her that she is suspended, effective immediately, but that they would “be in touch.”

Unindicted Co-Conspirators in 1/6 Cases Raise Disturbing Questions of Federal Foreknowledge

Of all the questions asked, words spoken, and ink spilled on the so-called “Capitol Siege” of January 6, 2021, none hold the key to the entire event quite like what Sen. Amy Klobuchar asked of Christopher Wray.

The Democrat from Minnesota asked the Trump-appointed FBI Director: Did the federal government infiltrate any of the so-called “militia” organizations claimed to be responsible for planning and executing the Capitol Siege?

The full segment is available on YouTube.

Christopher Wray is able to uncomfortably weasel his way out of answering the question directly, partially because Klobuchar does him the courtesy of not asking him the question directly. Klobuchar instead asks the FBI director if he wishes he had infiltrated the militia organizations allegedly involved in 1/6 — assuming from the outset that there was in fact no infiltration, thereby providing the FBI director an easy way to avoid addressing the question one way or another.

Revolver News is willing to address the matter directly in the following three questions:

In the year leading up to 1/6 and during 1/6 itself, to what extent were the three primary militia groups (the Oath Keepers, the Proud Boys, and the Three Percenters) that the FBI, DOJ, Pentagon and network news have labeled most responsible for planning and executing a Capitol attack on 1/6 infiltrated by agencies of the federal government, or informants of said agencies?

Exactly how many federal undercover agents or confidential informants were present at the Capitol or in the Capitol during the infamous “siege” and what roles did they play (merely passive informants or active instigators)?

Finally, of all of the unindicted co-conspirators referenced in the charging documents of those indicted for crimes on 1/6, how many worked as a confidential informant or as an undercover operative for the federal government (FBI, Army Counterintelligence, etc.)?

Marjorie Taylor Greene on Georgia Election Official’s Shocking Claims – “It’s a Big Deal. I Think It’s Going to EXPLODE!”

The corrupt Republican leadership in Georgia continues to pretend that they are what they’re not and that no one sees their true colors.

The most corrupt Secretary of State in recent history, Brad Raffensperger in Georgia, continues to pretend that he is a good man working for the people of Georgia. This he is not.

Despite piles of evidence of a corrupted election and fraudulent acts, this crooked Secretary of State pretended that he was working for the people of Georgia and he certified the election. He was not. We really don’t know who he was working for, but a free and fair 2020 Election was not his goal.

When the President finally attempted to talk some sense into Raffensperger, he lied about what was said, leaked it to the most untrustworthy publication in the US – the Washington Post, and then deleted the evidence that he conjured up. Unfortunately for him, he got caught.

Raffensperger is not a good man or an honest man and his actions show it. He handed the Georgia election to Joe Biden knowing there were hundreds of thousands of invalid votes for Joe Biden included in the results he certified. Now crooked Raffensperger is pretending that he didn’t know and he’s expressing anger towards the Fulton County election team because they got caught.

Unhinged Liar Katie Hobbs Comes Unglued! Demands Senate Take Action In Wild WaPo Hit Piece

Unhinged liar Katie Hobbs submitted a junk opinion piece to the Washington Post on Tuesday.

The oped is littered with lies and conspiracies. There is not one single fact about the audit included in the hit piece. NOT ONE!

In fact, there really are no facts about anything in the opinion piece. It is full of the same old stale arguments and racist rants against minorities not being capable of getting a voter ID. There is not a single fact about anything. It is just one long piece of narrative and propaganda.

Even for fake-news WaPo this was a sad display.

Here’s one direct quote, “My office won a court order to send impartial observers to the audit”.

Well first off, you were invited to the audit yourself, you chose not to go and you didn’t have to win anything in court to get the invite. Secondly, the “observers” you sent were top-level national activists, they were hardly impartial.

“It’s an absurd spectacle. The proliferation of conspiracy theories is staggering: ballots are being disqualified because of Sharpies; ballots were shipped in from China; ballots were burned in a chicken-farm fire.”

Those wild and exaggerated claims have NOTHING to do with the Arizona Audit.

You would expect journalists to ask, what in the world do any of those claims have to do with an Arizona audit of machines and ballots? But no.

Katie Hobbs is losing her touch and losing her mind. This latest oped is pure garbage.

They must really be panicked.

“Did You Order Assassination of Woman Who Walked Into Congress?” – Vlad Putin Calls Out US for Political Persecution of Jan. 6 Protesters

Russian President Putin was interviewed by NBC on June 11 in Russia. Putin makes more sense in some of his responses than do the knuckleheads who run US politics, media, and social media.

At one point in the interview, Putin shamed his interviewer for not allowing him to finish what he was saying:

Putin also asks – “Did you order assassination of woman who walked into Congress?

The full transcript of the interview with Putin can be found here.

It is really sad that this senile old man is planning on meeting with Putin tomorrow. This will not go well. No wonder Biden will hold a separate press conference without Putin:

Pfizer, Moderna Jabs Cause Heart Inflammation In Some Young Men, CDC Finds

As American public health officials and political leaders struggle to entice more young adults to accept the COVID-19 vaccine, researchers have just discovered a disturbing side effect of the Pfizer and Moderna jabs, which rely on new mRNA technology to program the body to fight the virus. While the adenovirus-vector jabs like the AstraZeneca shot have been tied to dozens of fatal cerebral blood clots, the mRNA vaccines have now been found to cause heart inflammation in some patients.

We first caught wind of this late last week when the CDC announced it would hold an "emergency meeting" about the rising number of heart inflammation cases in the US VAERs database.

YOU STUPID, STUPID STUPIDS.

This was so predictable. pic.twitter.com/oHKFgR9vF4

— Alex Berenson (@AlexBerenson) June 10, 2021

According to Reuters, the CDC started investigating after Israel's Health Ministry reported that it had discovered a likely link to the condition in young men who received the Pfizer jab. Although some patients were hospitalized, most recovered on their own and (most importantly) nobody died.

The CDC told Reuters that it's still assessing the risk from the condition and has not yet concluded that there was a causal relationship between the vaccines and cases of myocarditis or pericarditis. Still, there are some lingering signs that the potential side effects from the vaccines is higher for young people. More than 50% of the cases reported to the US Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System - better known as VAERS - after people had received their second dose of the jab were in people between the ages of 12 and 24, the CDC said. Those age groups accounted for under 9% of doses administered.

"We clearly have an imbalance there," said Dr. Tom Shimabukuro, deputy director of the CDC's Immunization Safety Office, during a presentation to an advisory committee to the agency on Thursday. The bulk of these cases have emerged within a week of vaccination. Shimabukuro added that doctors saw a "preponderance" of young white men. This contrasts with the AstraZeneca brain clots, which overwhelmingly afflicted women. Just under 80% of all of these cases were found in men.

Georgia To Investigate After Fulton County Official Says Election Forms Are 'Missing'

Georgia’s secretary of state said Monday that his office will probe Fulton County after an election official there said forms verifying the chain of custody for some mail-in ballots went missing.

“New revelations that Fulton County is unable to produce all ballot drop box transfer documents will be investigated thoroughly, as we have with other counties that failed to follow Georgia rules and regulations regarding drop boxes. This cannot continue,” Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, a Republican, said in a statement.

Raffensperger previously announced similar probes in Coffee, Grady, and Taylor counties. In doing so, he alleged that the state’s other 120 counties had properly completed absentee ballot transfer forms.

Earlier Monday, Mariska Bodison with the county’s Board of Registration and Elections told the Georgia Star News that “a few forms are missing” when asked for documentation on approximately 19,000 absentee ballots that were said to have been placed in drop boxes.

The forms that are not available at this time would detail the chain of custody for the ballots. They are required by law.

A Fulton County spokeswoman told The Epoch Times in an email that the county “followed procedures for the collection of absentee ballots from Fulton County drop boxes.”

“We maintain a large quantity of documents and researching our files from last year to produce the ballot transfer forms. We have been in communication with the Secretary of State’s office to update them of our progress on this matter,” she said.

Democrat Joe Biden won Georgia by under 12,000 votes. Biden typically received more mail-in ballots in each state, and Georgia was no exception. While former President Donald Trump received over 254,000 more Election Day votes than Biden, Biden received over 848,000 absentee ballots compared to Trump’s 450,522.

28 Chinese military planes enter Taiwan’s air defense zone in largest fly-over to date, Taipei says

Taiwan’s government has reported that 28 Chinese planes, including fighter jets and nuclear-capable bombers, entered its air defense identification zone (ADIZ) in the largest ‘incursion’ to date.

In a statement released on the Taiwan Ministry of National Defense website, the nation outlined the alleged violation of its ADIZ by the Chinese Communist People’s Liberation Army, which reportedly included fourteen J-16 and 6 J-11 jet fighters, as well as anti-submarine aircraft and nuclear-capable bombers.

Taiwan, which China considers an integral part of the country, has reported an increase in China’s fly-overs in recent months, including 25 PLA planes entering the ADIZ in April, days after 10 jets had entered the island’s defense area.

Beijing has not yet acknowledged the reported activity, but it comes days after the G7 group of leaders released a joint statement “calling on China to respect human rights and fundamental freedoms.” The G7’s remarks were seen as directly referring to China’s behavior around the South China Sea and Taiwan.

China responded to the G7’s statement on Monday, expressing its “strong dissatisfaction” with the criticism, which Beijing claimed was a “serious violation of the basic norms of international relations.” Addressing the concerns raised by the G7, China defended its actions, claiming it “will resolutely defend national sovereignty, security and development interests.”

Earlier in June, China and the United States clashed over a visit to Taipei by three American senators on a military transport plane. The two Democrats and one Republican met with Taiwanese officials during a three-hour trip to the island, in what the Chinese Defense Ministry described as a “political show” and “vile political provocation.”

‘Government stole our water’: US farmers ready for standoff with feds in drought irrigation crisis, expect right-wing militia help

Outraged farmers threatened to disrupt a federal order to stop the flow of irrigation water from a lake amid a severe drought in the US state of Oregon. They warned that right-wing militias will back them in case of confrontation.

Farmers are protesting because they own the water in the Upper Klamath Lake, farmer Dan Nielsen told RT’s Ruptly video agency. He stood outside an American flag-colored tent that was set up next to the canal headgates, which control the flow of irrigation water from the lake.

“It’s ours and the federal government actually just stole it. No due process of law, no compensation,” Nielsen said, adding that federal officials had violated the locals’ property rights guaranteed by the US Constitution.

Protesters brought signs saying “Water for Farms” and “Open the Gates. No Water. No Food. No Life.”

They spoke about releasing the water themselves if the government does not back down. “If they don't budge… I think we’re just going to end up taking it,” Nielsen said. “It's the only way the government gets it.” In order to avoid confrontation, officials must let farmers use the water for their crops or purchase the land from the farmers, he said.

The US Bureau of Reclamation closed the canal last month, saying that due to the extreme drought there was not enough water left for it to operate properly. The bureau also said that releasing the water will threaten the endangered species of salmon that inhabit the lake. The fish have agricultural and spiritual significance to the Native American tribes who live upstream.

According to local media, thousands of farmers on the Oregon-California border were left without a steady water supply after the closure of the canal. Klamath Irrigation District president Ty Kliewer said that “the impacts to our family farms and these rural communities will be off the scale.”

An outraged Nielsen and another farmer, Grant Knoll, purchased a vacant lot near the federal waterway, where they set up a tent dubbed ‘Water Crisis Info Center’. Protesters told Jefferson Public Radio (JPR) that they had teamed up with People’s Rights, a group founded by well-known conservative militia leader Ammon Bundy.

They showed JPR a text conversation with Bundy and said the militiamen will get a heads-up when the farmers make their move. “I’m planning on getting DC’s attention,” Knoll told JPR this month. “We’re going to turn on the water and have a standoff.”

The Bundy family first became famous for their 2014 armed standoff with the US government in a dispute over grazing fees. Two years later Ammon Bundy led a group of militiamen that seized the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge office in Harney County, Oregon.

MacKenzie Scott donates $2.7 billion to 286 organizations

MacKenzie Scott, the billionaire philanthropist known for her impromptu multibillion-dollar donations to charities and racial equity issues, announced Tuesday that she has given $2.7 billion to 286 organizations.

Scott, the ex-wife of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, wrote in a Medium post that she made the gifts to enable the organizations to continue their work, and as a “signal of trust and encouragement” to them and others.

It is the third round of announcements Scott has made regarding her philanthropy, which values quick response and unrestricted donations that as an individual rivals the largest of foundations. In 2020, she made two similar surprise announcements — when she donated about $6 billion to COVID relief, gender equality and historically black colleges and universities and other schools.

Scott made clear in her announcement Tuesday that she is troubled by the increasing concentration of wealth among a small proportion of individuals. She said she worked with a team of researchers and philanthropy advisers “to give away a fortune that was enabled by systems in need of change.”

“In this effort, we are governed by a humbling belief that it would be better if disproportionate wealth were not concentrated in a small number of hands, and that the solutions are best designed and implemented by others,” she continued.

“Though we still have a lot to learn about how to act on these beliefs without contradicting and subverting them, we can begin by acknowledging that people working to build power from within communities are the agents of change.”

The list of her recipients varied, including universities, refugee resettlement groups and arts and culture organizations that have suffered from a drop in giving as donors focused on more urgent needs brought on by the coronavirus pandemic.

Fulton County Election Official Admits Chain of Custody Documents Missing for 2020 Election Drop Box Absentee Ballots

Documentation accounting for over 18,000 votes is missing in Georgia. Biden won the state by less than 12,000 votes.

A Fulton County election official admitted that chain of custody documentation is missing for 2020 absentee ballots deposited into drop boxes according to a report by the Georgia Star News.

According to the report, the official admitted that “a few forms are missing” and that “some procedural paperwork may have been misplaced.” The admission drew scrutiny due to the fact that “a few forms” actually meant 385 transfer forms out of an estimated 1,565 upon further analysis.

A Star News analysis of drop box ballot transfer forms for absentee ballots deposited in drop boxes provided by Fulton County in response to an Open Records Request showed that 385 transfer forms out of an estimated 1,565 transfer forms Fulton County said should have been provided are missing – a number that is significantly greater than “a few” by any objective standard.

The most shocking takeaway from the report would be that the “total number of absentee ballots whose chain of custody was purportedly documented in these 385 missing Fulton County absentee ballot transfer forms was 18,901” votes.

Joe Biden was certified as the winner in Georgia after narrowly defeating President Donald Trump by less than 12,000 votes.

The admission attributes to growing concerns over the security and legitimacy of the 2020 election results in the state of Georgia, as calls for nationwide forensic audits continue to mount all across the United States. Various states, including Georgia, have sent delegates to visit the audit facility in Arizona, suggesting that the audit process will be duplicated in their own states, as National File reported.

National File reported that veteran election officials in Georgia have alleged that 30,000 fake ballots were found after a judge ordered 145,000 absentee ballots to be unsealed. “Six affidavits now, we had four, now it’s six. Six affidavits of veteran election officials are alleging that up to 30,000 of these 147 [thousand] ballots are fake,” said Fredericks. “Somebody printed them up on a machine and ran them through the vote counting machines. They’re not real. They’re not attached to anybody.”

Facebook’s CCP-Linked ‘Fact-Checker’ is Now Censoring Stories Critical Of Zuckerberg-Funded Wuhan Lab Partners.

Lead Stories – a so-called “fact-checking” outlet partnered with both Facebook and the Chinese Communist Party-linked TikTok app – has launched a campaign to defend Wuhan Institute of Virology collaborator Ralph Baric after The National Pulse unearthed his 2018 remarks outlining how to “make money” from pandemics.

Representing yet another conflict of interest, Lead Stories is funded in large part by Facebook, whose founder Mark Zuckerberg’s personal charity has sent six-figure grants to Baric.

As revealed by The National Pulse, the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative awarded a $433,000 grant to Baric’s University of North Carolina Chapel Hill lab for coronavirus research.

One day after The National Pulse published the article revealing Baric’s how “to be prepared and make money in the next pandemic” slide, Lead Stories had the article removed from Facebook.

Despite The National Pulse article linking to the full video of Baric’s 2018 presentation, Lead Stories promptly issued a spurious “fact check” with the following rationale:

The full video confirmed that Dr. Ralph Baric, a professor of epidemiology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, was giving an academic presentation on the history and future of pandemics. It was clearly not “scheming.”

“Ironically, Dr. Baric’s prediction of profiteering through misinformation about a pandemic came true just two years later. But it was not Baric and his audience doing it,” the article, authored by Editor-in-Chief Alan Duke who has previously threatened National Pulse reporters, adds without any evidence.

Despite the evidence-free “fact check” from Lead Stories – an outlet that exclusively employs Democrat Party donors – the story is now veiled with a banner marking the story as “false.”

Former CDC Director Redfield ‘Disappointed’ In Fauci’s Refusal To Investigate Evidence-Backed ‘Lab Leak’ Theory.

Former Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Robert Redfield doubled down on his hypothesis that COVID-19 came from a Wuhan lab while expressing “disappointment” in scientists such as Dr. Anthony Fauci for their “lack of openness” to investigating the theory.

Redfield made the comments during a 2-hour long interview with Fox News Medical Contributor Marc Siegel. “A year and a half ago Dr. Robert Redfield, then-CDC Director, had a hypothesis about the emerging virus. So did Dr. Anthony Fauci. Redfield felt that evidence pointed to a lab manipulation and a leak, and Fauci didn’t,” Siegel summarized.

Clips from the interview reveal Redfield backing the hypothesis that COVID-19 originated in a Wuhan lab, as he similarly claimed during a CNN interview in March. “There’s an alternative hypothesis that it went from a bat virus, got into a laboratory where, in the laboratory, it was taught, educated, it evolved, so that it became a virus that could efficiently transmit human-to-human,” he reiterates in the Fox interview.

“In my professional opinion as a virologist, that’s the hypothesis that I support,” he adds before singling out Fauci for subscribing to the COVID-19 “natural origins” theory:

Other individuals, Tony Fauci, for example, would say that he prefers to support that it evolved from nature.

During the interview, where Redfield reveals he had a “higher-level security clearance” than other members on the COVID-19 task force, he asserts that “Tony is holding onto this hypothesis tightly.”

“Now, why would that be?” he asks before noting that “sometimes scientists when they bite into a bone on a hypothesis, it’s hard for them to move on.” “I guess if I’m disappointed about anything about the early scientific community it’s that there seemed to be lack of openness to pursue both hypotheses,” he concludes before slamming the World Health Organization’s COVID-19 investigation as “compromised.”

‘They Are Going To Kill Us All’: Jon Stewart Puts Stephen Colbert On His Heels With Unmitigated Rant About COVID-19 Leaking Out Of Lab

Comedian and actor Jon Stewart relentlessly mocked anyone who doesn’t believe the coronavirus was created in a lab during “The Late Show” with Stephen Colbert on Monday night.

“Science has, in many ways, helped ease the suffering of this pandemic, which was more than likely caused by science,” Stewart said as the audience burst into laughter.

Colbert pushed back, noting there is a “chance” the virus was created in a lab.

“A chance?” a shocked Stewart retorted. “Oh my God! There’s a novel respiratory coronavirus overtaking Wuhan China. What do we do? You know who we could ask, the Wuhan Novel Respiratory Coronavirus Lab. The disease is the same name as the lab.”

Biden Admin Unveils Strategy To Combat ‘Domestic Terrorism,’ Labels White Supremacy As ‘Lethal’ Threat

President Joe Biden’s administration announced a new “National Strategy for Countering Domestic Terrorism” that focuses in part on white supremacy, declared to be a “lethal threat” Tuesday.

The initiative follows a review, directed by Biden to his national security team, of how the government addresses domestic terrorism. The “National Strategy for Countering Domestic Terrorism” aims to bolster the government’s response to such incidents, according to a White House press release.

“The review was rooted in an expert assessment of the domestic terrorism threat provided by the intelligence and law enforcement communities,” the White House noted. “An unclassified summary of that assessment was released in March so the public could see the key findings. It found that the two most lethal elements of today’s domestic terrorism threat are (1) racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists who advocate for the superiority of the white race and (2) anti-government or anti-authority violent extremists, such as militia violent extremists.”

Biden, in a statement regarding news of the initiative, called domestic terrorism “a stain on the soul of America.” He referred to the plan as “a comprehensive approach” to protecting America and pushed his common idea of unity.

“This is a project that should unite all Americans. Together we must affirm that domestic terrorism has no place in our society,” Biden said. “We must work to root out the hatreds that can too often drive violence. And we must recommit to defending and protecting our basic freedoms, which belong to all Americans in equal measure, and which are not only the foundation of our democracy – they are our enduring advantage in the world.”

Amid developing ways to counter domestic terrorism, the Biden administration “embraced the protection of civil rights and civil liberties as a national security imperative,” the White House wrote. Biden highlighted this protection in his statement, as well.

The initiative has four pillars, “with the first aiming to understand and share information related to domestic terrorism.” In part, the government plans to tackle this pillar by enhancing “domestic terrorism analysis” and improving “information sharing” through various law enforcement groups.

The second pillar focuses on preventing future recruitment and mobilization to violence. To do so, the initiative looks to address online recruitment and “has revamped support to community partners who can help to prevent individuals from ever reaching the point of committing terrorist violence.”

Pillar three offers plans on disrupting and discouraging domestic terrorism, and pillar four explains ways to “confront long-term contributors to domestic terrorism.” The last pillar notes that the government will look towards ensuring that law enforcement doesn’t operate with bias and will counter polarization due to “disinformation, misinformation” and conspiracy theories.

The White House didn’t specify how, exactly, the administration will implement some of the changes detailed in pillar four.

Hunter Biden’s Father Says Ukraine Too Corrupt to Join NATO

President Joe Biden dismissed the possibility of an early entry for Ukraine into NATO on Monday, claiming the nation has to “clean up corruption” for the military alliance to trust it.

Biden himself, and his son Hunter, have been the focus of years of investigation into the younger Biden’s affiliations with Ukrainian oligarchs, particularly his hiring by the Ukrainian energy firm Burisma that leaked emails appeared to indicate was directly the result of those oligarchs seeking influence with then-Vice President Biden.

Burisma hired Hunter Biden in 2014 — an extremely tumultuous time for Ukraine as Russia invaded and colonized Crimea and aided separatists with launching a still-ongoing war in its eastern Donbass region. Anti-Russian protests resulted in the nation having three presidents that year: the incumbent Viktor Yanukovych, interim President Oleksandr Turchynov, and successor Petro Poroshenko, who became president on a vow to take a hard line against Russia. Ukrainians removed Poroshenko from power in 2019, replacing him with sitcom star Volodymyr Zelensky in response to mounting corruption allegations against Poroshenko.

Zelensky, the current incumbent, baffled the world Monday with a post on Twitter claiming that NATO had agreed to accept Ukraine as a member.

“NATO leaders confirmed that [Ukraine] will become a member of the Alliance,” the president alleged. Leaders at the ongoing NATO summit, confronted by the message, appeared confused.

The post prompted a reporter to ask Biden for a “clear ‘yes’ or ‘no'” on Ukrainian entry into NATO.

“It depends on whether they meet the criteria. The fact is they still have to clean up corruption,” Biden replied. “The fact is they have to meet other criteria to get into the Action Plan.”

“They have to convince, and it’s not easy,” he continued. “I made a speech, years ago, to the Rada saying that — that Ukraine had an opportunity to do something that’s never occurred in the history of Ukraine: actually generate a democratically elected and not corrupt — led by oligarchies in any of the regions — nation.”

Elsewhere in the same press conference, Biden went on to praise Russian leader Vladimir Putin, responsible for the colonization of Crimea and fueling the Donbass war, as “bright” and “tough” and refused to repeat his description of Putin as a “killer” made in an interview in March.

Biden is set to meet with Putin on Wednesday and rejected a request from Zelensky for an in-person meeting with him prior to engaging Putin. Zelensky has previously described himself as “confused” and “disappointed” by Biden’s Russia policy.

Zelensky nonetheless appeared to receive the message on Tuesday, starting the day by vetoing a bill that would have allowed Ukrainian lawmakers to avoid disclosing their relatives’ financial assets, allowing them to hide their wealth. Zelensky addressed the danger of oligarchs and corrupt business interests influencing the country in a speech later that day.

UK Expands Trials on ‘Third Jab’ Coronavirus Vax Booster Shots

A new UK hospital has joined the ongoing clinical trials investigating the impact of a third coronavirus jab, which the British public, the government has indicated, will likely be asked to take come the autumn or winter.

Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge has become the latest in the UK of a growing number of NHS sites giving volunteers a third dose of the coronavirus vaccine in an effort to understand which shot would be best to administer if, and when, the re-vaccination campaign begins, the BBC reports. In all, 3,000 people are to receive extra doses from one of the seven coronavirus vaccines.

The Cov-Boost research programme’s statement notes: “Millions of people have now received their first 2 vaccinations, which we call a “prime-boost” course… Whilst these have been shown to be highly effective at preventing severe disease due to COVID-19, we don’t know how long the immune protection from vaccination will last.

“In addition, variants of the virus which causes COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) have emerged with mutations which might make the immune response from vaccination less effective. It is therefore likely that additional, “booster” vaccinations might be needed for high risk groups after a period of time to provide added protection.”

Associate professor of paediatrics and vaccinology at the University of Oxford Dr Matthew Snape said at the time of the programme’s launch in May that it was the first research project of its kind in the world.

At the moment the UK government has proclaimed its goal — and has even tied the end of lockdown to — getting a significant proportion of the adult population “fully vaccinated” with two jabs. But in tandem with that widely-publicised goal, the government has also made clear that is believes a third shot and possibly more in future could be required.

Britain’s vaccine minister Nadim Zahawi made this point as long ago as February, when he said there would “very much probably” be a coronavirus vaccine booster push in Autumn and then another jab annually, tailored to new variants as they become prevalent. In this regard, the minister likened the coronavirus vaccination programme to the flu boosters older people in Britain have every year before the winter.

That the government was preparing for a third wave of shots was underlined in May when the UK authorised the Johnson & Johnson ‘Jansen’ vaccine, which it has 20 million doses of on order. At the time of the authorisation, British health secretary Matt Hancock said the new order was “potentially” going to be used for third dose jabs later in the year.

Children May Need Vaccinations to Prevent Disrupting Education, Suggests UK Chief Medical Officer

England’s chief medical officer has suggested that in future, children could be offered vaccination against the Chinese coronavirus to prevent “disruptions” to their schooling.

Professor Chris Whitty made the remarks after Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced on Monday night that the end of all lockdown restrictions would be delayed a further four weeks, until July 19th, and pledged to accelerate plans to offer vaccinations to everyone over 18.

When asked during last night’s press conference if the government were considering vaccinating children, Professor Whitty said in comments reported by the Manchester Evening News: “There are two possible reasons you would want to vaccinate children potentially, but with caution, and this is the point I’m trying to stress.

“The first would be those groups who are actually at high risk of Covid, and the JCVI [the government’s Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation] will be bringing forward advice on this.

“Those children specifically should be vaccinated to reduce the risk of them having severe disease, and in a very, very small number of cases it does happen, mortality.”

He added that the second reason related to the effects of “disruptions” to children’s education, saying: “But the wider question is around the effects on children’s education, and are the multiple disruptions that might happen going to have a negative impact on their life chances, including the effect it will have on long term risk of physical and mental ill health.

“And this is going to be a decision that will have to be based on the data we have available at the moment.”

Whitty implied that vaccinating children was not the priority at present, adding: “This big priority the Prime Minister has said is getting through all the adults down to 18 making sure they’re vaccinated and then double vaccinated.”

A Department of Health spokesman told The Telegraph: “No decisions have yet been made on whether people aged 12 to 17 should be routinely offered Covid-19 vaccines. We will be guided by our expert advisers, and the Government has asked the JCVI for its formal recommendation. We will update in due course.”

In early May, Canada became the first country to authorise the BioNTech-Pfizer vaccine for use on children from the ages of 12 and over, while the U.S.’s medicines agency authorised the use of the same vaccine to over-12s days later. While on May 28th, the EU regulator, the European Medicines Agency (EMA), approved the BioNTech-Pfizer for use on children over 12.

According to the British government, 30.2 million people have had both doses of a vaccine, representing roughly 57.3 per cent of the adult population, with around 79.4 per cent have had at least one dose.

First Autopsy of COVID Vaccinated Patient Finds Every Organ of Body Infested with Spike Proteins

The first-ever postmortem study of a patient vaccinated against COVID-19 has revealed that viral RNA was found in every organ of the patient’s body, meaning that the vaccine is either ineffective or the coronavirus actually spreads faster in vaccinated individuals.

The scientific report out of Germany published by the International Journal of Infectious Diseases in June examined the autopsy of an 86-year-old man who had received a single dose of the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine but died 4 weeks later after becoming infected with the virus by a nearby patient at a hospital.

From the “First case of postmortem study in a patient vaccinated against SARS-CoV-2“:

We report on an 86-year-old male resident of a retirement home who received vaccine against SARS-CoV-2. Past medical history included systemic arterial hypertension, chronic venous insufficiency, dementia and prostate carcinoma. On January 9, 2021, the man received lipid nanoparticle-formulated, nucleoside-modified RNA vaccine BNT162b2 in a 30 μg dose. On that day and in the following 2 weeks, he presented with no clinical symptoms.

On day 18, he was admitted to hospital for worsening diarrhea. Since he did not present with any clinical signs of COVID-19, isolation in a specific setting did not occur. Laboratory testing revealed hypochromic anemia and increased creatinine serum levels. Antigen test and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for SARS-CoV-2 were negative.

But the study notes that by day 25, that vaccinated patient had tested positive for COVID-19, presumably from a nearby COVID-infected patient in his hospital room, and died of kidney and respiratory failure the following day.

SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins were present in nearly all the vaccinated patient’s organs.

“In summary, the results of our autopsy case study in a patient with mRNA vaccine confirm the view that by first dose of vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 immunogenicity can already be induced, while sterile immunity is not adequately developed,” the study concluded.

In other words, although the COVID-19 vaccine triggered an immune response within the body, it didn’t appear to stop the spread of the virus, and therefore the spread of harmful viral spike proteins, throughout the body.

This is just more bombshell scientific evidence that the COVID-19 vaccine likely does more harm than good, and may actually even accelerate the spread of the coronavirus.

The vaccine used is BNT162b2. This is the Pfizer BioNTech vaccine.

Moderna patent application March 28 2019

On March 28, 2019, Moderna, the poster child of the mRNA supposed vaccine, lodged an amendment to a previously multi-rejected patent. Included in that amendment were the following words:

"Because of a concern for re-emergence or a deliberate release of the SARS coronavirus, vaccine development was initiated."

Bill Gates’ Vaccine Experiment with Indian Tribal Girls in 2009

Selected quotations from Transcript

Indian tribal girls were used as guinea pigs.

With 1.3 billion people, India is a good base for pharmaceutical companies to make a killing and also kill a lot of people in the process.

The manipulation of people by the media.

It is so terrifying what they are doing.

“We are taking things that are genetically modified organisms and injecting them into little kids arms…”, says Bill Gates

Over 490 000 children in India developed paralysis as a result of the Gates supported vaccine.

There was a parliamentary inquiry, and the Gates Foundation was excluded from India.

And Now they are back, doing their own tricks again.

US government spends extra $3 billion on vaccine hesitancy propaganda ads – as vaccine deaths surpass 5,000

The U.S. government has spent billions of dollars into the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccine and its related programs. Divided by the number of citizens in the country, the government has allocated more than $130 to each person just so they get vaccinated. However, no amount of money can conceal the fact that there have been more than 5,000 deaths related to the COVID-19 vaccines reported to the government. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) maintains a record of adverse events related to vaccines. It updates the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) on a weekly basis, with new reports released every Friday. According to VAERS data between Dec. 14 of last year and May 28 of this year, the number of vaccine-related deaths reached 5,165. This current figure was the result of 759 fatalities being added to the system over the previous week. The data also showed a total of 25,359 serious injuries reported – an increase of 3,822 compared to the week prior. All in all, the VAERS data registered a total of 294,801 adverse events related to the COVID-19 vaccines. But the number of deaths and adverse events being reported are at historical levels – with more reported in just the last six months than the previous 20 years combined. The VAERS website stated that one of the main limitations of its data is its inability to determine if the vaccine caused the reported adverse event. It added that this limitation "has caused confusion in the publicly available data, … specifically regarding the number of reported deaths." Furthermore, the VAERS website mentioned that it "accepts all reports of adverse health events following vaccinations without judging whether the vaccine caused the adverse health event" – further muddling the waters. Ultimately, it acknowledged that information from a VAERS report alone is insufficient to establish a causal link between vaccines and reported fatalities. (Related: VAERS was designed from the start to UNDERCOUNT vaccine injuries and deaths, yet it's already sounding alarm bells over covid vaccine injuries and deaths.)

Legal Notice for ‘Contempt of Court’ and ‘Crimes against Humanity’ served to Dr Tedros of the WHO

The Indian Bar Association has served a legal notice for contempt of court and crimes against humanity to the director general of the World Health Organisation, Dr Tedros Adhanom Gebreyesus, and the chief scientist at the WHO, Dr Soumya Swaminathan.

The IBA, a private bar association headquartered in Mumbai, served the notice due to the WHO continuing to spread disinformation about the drug ‘Ivermectin’, despite having full knowledge of a judgement passed by the Honourable High Court of Bombay at Goa on the 29th May 2021.

The judgement was passed after a previous legal note was served on the 25th May 2021 to the chief scientist at the WHO, Dr Soumya Swaminathan due to public statements made, including on Twitter, stating that the WHO did not recommend the use of Ivermectin to treat the alleged Covid-19 disease, “except within clinical trials”. She also said there was “no evidence” that the drug helped stop the alleged disease’s progression.

The WHO has consistently said there is insufficient evidence to prove that Ivermectin helps alleviate the alleged Covid-19 disease.

The IBA’s 51-page notice, sent on 25th May, called Swaminathan’s statements “highly unconscionable, misleading and issued with ulterior purposes and deliberate intention to underplay the effectiveness of Ivermectin in treating the Covid-19 patients as well as its use as a prophylaxis and to dissuade people from using this drug by creating doubts in the minds of people around safety of Ivermectin”.

The association called for action under sections 302 (punishment for murder), 304 (II) (culpable homicide not amounting to murder), 88 (act not intended to cause death), 120 (B) (party to criminal conspiracy) and 34 (acts done by several persons in furtherance of a common intention) “and other provisions of the Indian Penal Code and under Disaster Management Act, 2005”.

Top Republicans demand CRIMINAL charges for whoever leaked files showing billionaires including Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos paid no tax

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is demanding a criminal investigation into the leaking of confidential tax information, insisting that whoever was responsible be imprisoned.

He wants the Justice Department and FBI to investigate who released information about some of the country's wealthiest taxpayers including Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk and Warren Buffet.

'Our tax returns are, by law, confidential because of just this kind of shenanigans,' he told conservative host Hugh Hewitt's radio show.

'These people, ought to, whoever did this, ought to be hunted down and thrown into jail.'

The details were published in a ProPublica report describing how some of the country's wealthiest people paid little income tax.

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos 's income tax bill was zero in 2007 and 2011, according to the non-profit investigative journalism organization.

Tesla founder Elon Musk’s also paid no income tax 2018 while financier George Soros went three years in a row without paying any federal income tax.

It cited an anonymous source 'who provided us with large amounts of information on the ultrawealthy, everything from the taxes they paid to the income they reported to the profits from their stock trades.'

McConnell, along with Sens. Chuck Grassley and Mike Crapo, announced Monday he had written to Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Waray to demand those responsible be prosecuted and and jailed.

They wrote that tax filers are expected to disclose personal information and in return can expect that their information is treated confidentially.

'Paying one’s taxes is a civic duty, and that duty requires taxpayers to disclose to the IRS deeply personal financial information…' including where they live and work, how much they spend on healthcare and child care, and the size of retirement funds, they said.

'But those compelled disclosures should not, and do not, make that financial information public.'

Confidentiality is a vital step to preventing the information being used for illicit purposes,' they said.

'Th[e] rule of confidentiality is about more than just protecting individual privacy, although that is an important objective,' they wrote.

'The rule is a vital check against the use of the incredible power of federal taxation for nefarious political purposes.'

Clinton Whistleblower ‘Feared for His Life’ Shortly Before Being Found Dead Of Supposed Suicide

Just months before being found dead in his apartment, the journalist who broke the story of Bill Clinton’s 2016 tarmac meeting with then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch warned colleagues and family that he feared for his life.

On Saturday morning about 8 a.m., the death of 45-year-old ABC journalist Christopher Sign was discovered in his Birmingham, Alabama apartment. Police are investigating his death as a possible suicide.

Secret on the Tarmac, which Breaking the Clinton-Lynch Tarmac Scandal is Sign’s book on breaking the infamous Clinton-Lynch tarmac story.

In Jan of 2020 Sign published the book about breaking the infamous Clinton-Lynch tarmac story called Secret on the Tarmac:

“The plan was perfect. No cameras, no microphones, no prying eyes and plenty of security. The setting for a clandestine meeting could not have been better. Former President Bill Clinton exited Attorney General Loretta Lynch’s private plane 20-minutes after he boarded. Both thought they got away with it. Both were wrong. Amid a heated Presidential race, federal investigations involving emails and Benghazi and society looking for clarity on the future of the country, the secret tarmac meeting would only complicate things. The secret meeting would have never been revealed if it weren’t for a veteran journalist and a trusted source,” the Amazon description of his book reads.

Sign told FOX News in early 2020 he has received death threats after breaking the story on Bill Clinton.

The Arizona Mirror – The Far-Left Outlet That Creates Far-Left Narratives in Arizona Is Connected to Dark Money

The Arizona Mirror started in 2018 and although the entity claims it’s an independent nonprofit, it quickly showed its far-left roots in its reporting in the Phoenix area.

In September 2018, the Arizona Mirror launched in the Grand Canyon state. The Phoenix New Times reported on this media outlet new to Arizona:

There’s a new media organization in town.

The Arizona Mirror launched on Tuesday with a staff of four journalists who previously worked for Arizona Capitol Times and the Arizona Republic.

The site describes itself as “an independent, nonprofit news organization focused on connecting public policy with the people it affects.” The Mirror intends to do the sort of watchdog journalism that has been on the decline with the newspaper industry. The small staff has high aspirations: amplifying voices. Shining lights. Holding public officials accountable.

The Hopewell fund has connections to Obama:

Michael Slaby is the board secretary of Hopewell Fund. Slaby previously worked as a Democratic Party operative and as chief technology for both of President Barack Obama’s campaigns.

It reports the following in its key staff webpage:

In 2019, the Hopewell Fund spent $11,027,778 in salaries and employee compensation. [19] In 2018, the Hopewell Fund spent $5,843,321 in salaries and employee compensation. [20] In 2017, the group spent $1,496,077 in salaries and employee compensation. [21]

Scott Nielsen is the managing director for Hopewell Fund, according to the group’s website. He was a Hopewell Fund board member from 2015 to 2016, but left the board in 2017; Nielsen is not reported as a paid employee or board member in the group’s 2018 or 2019 IRS Form 990 filings. [22] Nielsen has a long history of working for left-leaning organizations as he previously worked as a program director for the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, and founded a consulting firm that provided services for left-wing organizations such as Open Society Foundations, W.K. Kellogg Foundation, and the Democracy Alliance. [23]

Megan Cavanaugh is a Hopewell Fund project director (2019 total compensation: $234,090). In 2018, she received total compensation of $234,178. [24] She is the managing director for Resources for Abortion Delivery, a project of Hopewell Fund which provides financial support to private abortion clinics. Cavanaugh was previously employed by Planned Parenthood Federation of America, where she worked as the national director for affiliate services. [25]

Courtney Cuff is a Hopewell Fund project director (2019 total compensation: $347,249). In 2018, she received total compensation of $349,866. [26] Cuff is executive director of the State Impact Project, a Hopewell Fund project that advocates for left-wing policies.

Tamer Mokhtar is a Hopewell Fund project director (2019 total compensation: $242,866). [27] Mokhtar is the founder of All Americans Vote, a left-of-center voter mobilization group that favors young and racial-minority voters expected to support the Democratic Party, and a former employee of Investing in US, a for-profit investment management firm founded by LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman and former Progressive Policy Institute senior fellow Dmitri Mehlhorn to fund left-wing causes. [28]

In summary, this is the gang that the Arizona Mirror is part of. It’s a far-left agenda-driven quagmire that pushes liberal garbage anti-American policies. The Democrats use this non-profit cover so they can avoid taxes and claim their efforts are above the table when they are not.

=Unemployed Households Can Earn $25/Hour on Welfare in 21 States, New Study Finds

The US economy is in a perplexing state of labor market purgatory. We have 9.3 million unfilled job openings, all while millions of Americans remain on unemployment benefits and millions more are opting out of the labor force entirely.

In short, a labor shortage is throttling the economic recovery. But why?

A new study published by the fiscally-conservative Committee to Unleash Prosperity offers a comprehensive examination of one of the labor shortage’s main causes: lucrative unemployment benefits. In March 2020, the federal government passed a “temporary” $600/week supplement on top of existing state-level unemployment payouts. It was reduced to a $300/week supplement in President Biden’s COVID-19 “stimulus” legislation but extended through September 2021.

Many conservative-leaning states have taken the initiative to suspend the excessive benefits early, but they are set to continue throughout the summer in dozens of states with Democratic governors. This new study finds that under the current benefits regime in conjunction with other welfare programs, households can earn the equivalent of $25/hour (assuming a 40 hour work week) by staying home with neither adult working.

In 19 states, a family of four with two parents who aren’t working can receive benefits roughly equal to a $100,000 annual salary. Across all 25 “blue” states choosing to leave the benefits in place, the average unemployment payout for a family of four exceeds $72,000, significantly more than the median household income of $68,703.

A graph included in the report shows how the lapse of the original benefit expansion corresponded with a precipitous drop in people on unemployment, yet reveals that this drop-off stagnated once the second supplement was implemented.

White House to Democrats: Get ready to go it alone on infrastructure

White House officials told House Democrats Tuesday to get ready to go it alone on infrastructure if bipartisan talks founder, setting the stage for party leaders to tap an obscure budget procedure to move President Biden's top domestic priority without Republican support.

Huddling in person in the Capitol for the first time since the COVID-19 crisis hit, members of the House Democratic Caucus were briefed by Steve Ricchetti, a top adviser to Biden, and Shalanda Young, the deputy director of the Office of Management and Budget, who said they would give Senate negotiators seven to 10 days to reach a bipartisan agreement, according to Democrats in the meeting.

If no deal is reached in that time, the officials said, Democrats will gauge the progress of those talks and charge ahead with a partisan package if need be.

“We certainly have a foundation to build on top of our jobs plan in its really complete or more complete form, and we'll see where we're going to go after a week or 10 days more dialogue and negotiation,” Ricchetti said, according to a source familiar with his remarks.

A number of Democrats emerging from the meeting, though, had a different interpretation, suggesting the seven-to-10-day window was a hard deadline.

"They're giving it a week or 10 days more and that's about it," Rep. John Yarmuth (D-Ky.), chairman of the House Budget Committee, said afterwards. "And then we move along with reconciliation — for everything."

The White House pushed back on that narrative later in the day, emphasizing that Biden's preference remains a bipartisan deal.

“He said that we are certainly going to know where things stand on infrastructure talks generally in the next week to 10 days, and that we can then take stock overall," White House spokesman Andrew Bates said in an email. "But he did not set a deadline or cutoff.”

The differing accounts highlight the divisions within the diverse Democratic Party, as centrist lawmakers, particularly in the Senate, are pressing for a bipartisan infrastructure deal, while restive liberals want Biden to abandon those talks and pursue a massive new spending package, even if it means losing any GOP support.

"The reality is that the American people — Democrats, independents and Republicans — want us to go big," said Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.), who has accused Republicans of negotiating in bad faith.

‘Death to Arabs’: Nationalist Jerusalem flag march held under ramped up security

Lapid slams ‘disgrace’ of racist chant;33 Palestinians said hurt in police clashes; signs say ‘Bennett the liar’; flights rerouted amid Gaza threat; arson balloons spark 20 fires

Thousands of right-wing nationalists marched through parts of Jerusalem’s Old City on Tuesday under a heavy police presence, as Israel was said to have warned Hamas, via Egyptian mediators, of a tough and immediate response to any rocket fire from the Gaza Strip.

Police estimated turnout in Jerusalem at 5,000 participants and some 2,000 officers were deployed across the city for the event.

Footage posted to social media showed the right-wing marchers chanting “Death to Arabs” as well as “Shuafat is on fire,” referring to the East Jerusalem neighborhood, and “Jerusalem is ours.”

While voicing support for the decision to approve the march, Foreign Minister Yair Lapid denounced the chants of “Death to Arabs.”

“The fact that there are extremist elements for whom the flag of Israel represents hate and racism is revolting and unforgivable,” Lapid tweeted. “It is incomprehensible that people can hold the Israeli flag in one hand and shout ‘Death to Arabs’ at the same time. This isn’t Judaism or Israeliness, and it is definitely not what our flag symbolizes. These people are a disgrace to the nation of Israel.”

The parade, the first major test of the new government sworn in Sunday, was rescheduled after the original Flag March was halted on Jerusalem Day, May 10, when the Gaza Strip’s Hamas rulers fired rockets at Jerusalem.

As the march began just before 6 p.m., clashes broke out near the Old City between police and Palestinians, 33 of whom the Palestinian Red Crescent said it treated. Six of the injured were hospitalized for wounds from rubber or sponge-tipped bullets, according to the medical service, which also said another Palestinian was injured by live fire, but that police were preventing them from evacuating him for treatment.

Video showed Palestinians throwing rocks at mounted police officers and one fell off his horse.

Police arrested 17 people on suspicion of disturbing the peace, throwing rocks and assaulting officers. Two cops were injured and taken for medical treatment, according to police.

YouTube removes Russian lawmaker’s video on discrimination of Sputnik V vaccine

Earlier, Russia's media watchdog sent Google a demand to lift the restrictions

MOSCOW, June 15. /TASS/. YouTube has removed a video by State Duma senator Leonid Slutsky on the discrimination of the Russian Sputnik V vaccine due to a violation of rules on spreading medical information about the coronavirus, the Google press service told TASS on Tuesday.

"The security of YouTube users is our top priority. The content in question was removed because it violated the rules with regards to false medical information on the coronavirus COVID-19 infection. In particular, a part of the video linked a large number of deaths from the coronavirus with vaccination," the Google press service responded to a TASS inquiry as to why restrictions were imposed on the video on the discrimination of the Sputnik V vaccine.

Earlier, Russia's media watchdog sent Google a demand to lift the restrictions imposed by YouTube on the video by the Russian lawmaker on the discrimination of the Russian Sputnik V vaccine against the coronavirus infection.

The agency noted that the material to which access had been restricted was dedicated to the issues of the pandemic, inoculation as well as of the barriers against Sputnik V created abroad. The federal service called such actions by Google an act of censorship and noted that they violate key principles of unobstructed access to information and its free dissemination.

On June 13, YouTube’s administration removed the video on barriers against the Russian Sputnik V vaccine being created abroad posted on the channel of head of the Russian State Duma Committee on Foreign Affairs Leonid Slutsky.

39 He answered, “A wicked and adulterous generation asks for a miraculous sign! But none will be given it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.40 For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of a huge fish, so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. 41 The men of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and now one greater than Jonah is here. 42 The Queen of the South will rise at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for she came from the ends of the earth to listen to Solomon’s wisdom, and now one greater than Solomon is here.

43 “When an evil spirit comes out of a man, it goes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. 44 Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’ When it arrives, it finds the house empty, swept clean and put in order. 45 Then it goes and takes with it seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the final condition of that man is worse than the first. That is how it will be with this wicked generation.”

Lightfoot slammed by member of US Commission on Civil Rights for ‘immoral’ race-based interview policy

From Fox News:

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot was slammed by a member of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights (USCCR) over her policy that barred White reporters from being granted interviews to mark the midway point of her first term in office.

In a letter sent to Lightfoot that was shared by The Daily Caller’s Thomas Catenacci, USCCR Commissioner Peter Kirsanow invoked the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment which prevents “official conduct discriminating on the basis of race,” something “any elected official in the United States should know.”

“A government official, such as yourself, depriving individuals of opportunities, on the basis of their race is explicitly discriminatory,” Kirsanow wrote. “Government-sanctioned bigotry is the same sort of horrid behavior that Americans of all stripes rejected, fought against, and ultimately conquered decades ago. An objective observer cannot help but wonder why such immoral and un-American attitudes are coming from the Office of the Mayor of Chicago.”
