The White House is on high alert after learning that multiple Secret Service members have tested positive for coronavirus, according to Department of Homeland Security documents reviewed by Yahoo News.
Secret Service members have been seen walking around the White House grounds not wearing face masks. The president and vice president have also chosen not to wear face masks in recent appearances.
“To protect the privacy of our employees' health information and for operational security, the Secret Service is not releasing how many of its employees have tested positive for COVID-19, Nor how many of its employees were, or currently are, quarantined,” said Justine Whelan, Secret Service spokeswoman.
In March, the Yahoo report said, the Secret Service, which is responsible for the protection of President Donald Trump, Vice President Mike Pence and other leaders, acknowledged that a single employee had tested positive for the coronavirus. There were 11 active cases at the agency as of Thursday evening, according to a daily report compiled by the DHS, Yahoo said.

US Moves to Pull Chinese Equipment From Its Power Grid
WASHINGTON - An executive order issued last week proposes to “monitor and replace” any U.S. power grid equipment made by the nation’s foreign adversaries.
Analysts said it would mainly affect Chinese-made products like electrical transformers.
President Donald Trump signed an executive order on May 1 prohibiting bulk power system equipment from foreign companies in the U.S. grid, citing security concerns.
The U.S. Department of Energy noted that under the current rules, contracts are awarded to the lowest bidder when it comes to bulk power system procurement, and that creates a "vulnerability that can be exploited by those with malicious intent."
U.S. Secretary of Energy Dan Brouillette said that it is imperative that “the bulk-power system be secured against exploitation and attacks by foreign threats.”

One Detailed Chart Exposes Exactly How the Bilderberg Group Controls the World
Dresden, Germany – It’s one of the most secretive and powerful organizations you’ve probably never heard of; the Bilderberg Group. With virtually no mainstream corporate media coverage of the event, the ultra-exclusive 2016 meeting of the Bilderberg Group, being held at the Taschenbergpalais hotel in Dresden, kicked off on June 9.
Nearly 130 politicians, financiers, and industrialists are attending this year’s conference, with the guest list including the chief of the International Monetary Fund, as well as the former heads of the CIA and MI6. What was once considered among the world’s most secretive meetings, the Bilderberg Meeting, has been held annually since 1954. Until recent decades, the actual existence of the meetings had been generally disregarded by the mainstream media as nothing more than a fringe “conspiracy theory.”
The annual meeting of the global power players — including representatives from government, private industry, media, finance, think tanks, academia, as well as numerous other organizations representing both private and public interests — began their closed-door sessions amid a heavily-armed security presence, and extremely little in the way of transparency — with journalist being arrested.

Bolsonaro Vows to Invite Up to 3,000 People to BBQ Party Amid Record High COVID-19 Deaths in Brazil
The president's handling of the coronavirus pandemic was harshly criticised in a recently published article in the renowned British medical journal The Lancet, the authors of which slammed Brazil's disregard for lockdown measures – something that supposedly could make the country a new COVID-19 hotspot.
Brazil's President Jair Bolsonaro has doubled-down on his vow to hold a major barbeque party despite criticism of the event, despite it violating the country's anti-coronavirus measures, which require people to avoid gathering in groups. The president stated that he had invited some 1,300 people to the party, despite initially planning it only for 30 friends, and suggested that he might actually let in more.
"I have invited 1,300 people, but if there are more - I will let them in. We will make a barbeque for 3,000 people", Bolsonaro said.

Syrian Army operation in Daraa ends in decisive victory over militants
BEIRUT, LEBANON (1:10 P.M.) – The Syrian Arab Army’s (SAA) military operation inside the Daraa Governorate this weekend has ended in a decisive victory against the militants that used the area launch attacks against their forces.
According to a field source in the Daraa Governorate, the Syrian Army was able to clear the town of Mazrib after several hours of battle against the group of militants responsible for the killing of nine soldiers earlier in the week.
The source said the Syrian Army made several arrests, while killing and wounding a number of other militants that refused to surrender themselves after being surrounded by the military for many hours on Thursday and Friday.
He would add that some of the militants managed to escape to the nearby town of Tafas, where they are now being pursued by the security forces in the area.
The Syrian Army is now in full control of the town of Mazrib and will maintain close watch over much of this region in the Daraa Governorate.

FDA chief self-quarantines after coming in contact with individual who tested positive for coronavirus
Dr. Stephen Hahn, the head of the Food and Drug Administration, will self-quarantine for 14 days after coming in contact with an individual who tested positive for coronavirus, an FDA spokesman confirmed to CNN.
“As Dr. Hahn wrote in a note to staff today, he recently came into contact with an individual who has tested positive for COVID-19. Per (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) guidelines, he is now in self-quarantine for the next two weeks. He immediately took a diagnostic test and tested negative for the virus,” FDA spokesman Michael Felberbaum said in a statement on Friday.
While the FDA did not name the person with whom Hahn came into contact, President Donald Trump earlier Friday had revealed that Vice President Mike Pence’s press secretary, Katie Miller, had tested positive for Covid-19.
Hahn is a member of the White House coronavirus task force, which held its most recent meeting on Thursday.

‘Plandemic’ Documentary Makers Outfox YouTube Censorship
A brilliant method has been discovered to get massive PR for your documentary: Carve out a compelling 25-minute clip; Encourage everyone to upload it everywhere on the Internet, for free; Warn that Big Tech media companies (Facebook, Twitter, YouTube) will almost certainly take it down – and then watch them remove it!
That counterintuitive approach worked magnificently with a segment of “Plandemic,” a documentary scheduled for full release this summer, produced by filmmaker Mikki Willis through his small company called Elevate.
The portion of the feature that Willis made available for upload consisted (in entirety) of an interview with virologist Judy Mikovits, a PhD scientist who – among other things – claims that patent incentives are a conflict of interest, and that Dr. Anthony Fauci – director of National Institutes of Allergy and Infectiousness Diseases at the National Institutes for Health – has ulterior financial motives in spreading fear about COVID-19. She also claimed he delayed HIV research in the 1980s, allowing the virus to spread, among other claims.
The real surprise was that Google-owned YouTube left the Mikovits segment up as long as it did – seemingly about 24 hours. In that amount of time it went viral and reportedly had 1.6 million views. Because Willis invited widespread sharing of the video, it popped up all over the Internet, generating millions more views. Now it’s a little more difficult to find, as Facebook and Twitter have also found ways to delete and/or down-rank posts of the “Plandemic” segment.

Meet the Pro-Gun Candidates that the National Association for Gun Rights is Endorsing
The National Association for Gun Rights has been one of the leading no compromise gun lobbies in America since its founding in 2000.
It has positioned itself as a principled alternative to establishment gun lobbies such as the National Rife Association.
One of its principal focuses is to make Constitutional Carry a reality in 50 states.
But in the short-term it is also getting involved in federal races.

Arizona: Muslim Students Threaten to Kill Prof for Suggesting Islam Is Violent
This will teach those Islamophobes that Islam is a religion of peace: a professor is facing death threats for suggesting otherwise. Nicholas Damask, Ph.D., has taught political science at Scottsdale Community College in Arizona for 24 years. But now he is facing a barrage of threats, and his family, including his 9-year-old grandson and 85-year-old parents, is in hiding, while College officials are demanding that he apologize – all for the crime of speaking the truth about the motivating ideology behind the threat of Islamic jihad worldwide.
Damask, who has an MA in International Relations from American University in Washington, D.C., and a Ph.D. in Political Science from the University of Cincinnati, says he is “to my knowledge, the only tenured political science faculty currently teaching in Arizona to write a doctoral dissertation on terrorism.” He has taught Scottsdale Community College’s World Politics for each of the 24 years he has worked at the school.
Professor Damask’s troubles began during the current Spring semester, when a student took exception to three quiz questions. The questions were:
Who do terrorists strive to emulate? A. Mohammed
Where is terrorism encouraged in Islamic doctrine and law? A. The Medina verses [i.e., the portion of the Qur’an traditionally understood as having been revealed later in Muhammad’s prophetic career]
Terrorism is _ in Islam. A. justified within the context of jihad.
Damask explained: “All quiz questions on each of my quizzes, including the ones in question here, are carefully sourced to the reading material. On this quiz, questions were sourced to the Qur’an, the hadiths, and the sira (biography) of Mohammed, and other reputable source material.” And indeed, the three questions reflect basic facts that are readily established by reference to Islamic texts and teachings and numerous statements of terrorists themselves.
Despite this, the student emailed Damask to complain that he was “offended” by these questions, as they were “in distaste of Islam.” Damask recounted: “Until this point, notably, the student had expressed no reservations about the course material and indeed he said he enjoyed the course.”

Here's How Much Nursing Homes Are Skewing America’s Coronavirus Numbers
Phil Kerpen, the president of the Committee to Unleash Prosperity, has been compiling data on nursing home deaths by state that have been attributed to the coronavirus, and there’s a lot of interesting things we can see in the data about the coronavirus.
Good morning, ICYMI because you sleep at night like a normal person, I have posted a Google sheet of nursing home deaths by state. DM me if you have any missing info.https://t.co/udR43akdhy
— Phil Kerpen (@kerpen) May 8, 2020
I took a look at the data to see what I could see.
First, it should be noted that the sources for the data by state vary. Some come from government sources, others from media, and are updated at different intervals. 12 states aren’t including nursing home deaths in their reporting. Some data, like that from New York, is considered bad because it excludes nursing home patients who die in a hospital. Nevertheless, the data compiled by Kerpen tells us a lot.

Muslim Fulani herdsmen kill 4 Christians, shoot Christian leader and family in Nigeria
Muslim Fulani herdsmen shot and wounded a Christian high school administrator and his family just two days after killing four Christians in the Plateau state of north central Nigeria, sources told Morning Star News.
Eight herdsmen invaded the Christian high school Messiah College in Gana Ropp village Tuesday, while headmaster Bayo Famonure and his family were asleep at their home on school property.
During the attack, the herdsmen shot Famonure in the head and in his lower extremities. They also shot his wife in the back and his two children in the feet. All family members are in stable condition.
"Yes, I was shot in the head, but the bullet didn't enter. It's a miracle," Pastor Famonure told Morning Star News. "I just praise God."
The attack on Famonure's family came just two days after herdsman ambushed and killed four Christians near the village of Kwall.
