[Babylon Bee] U.S.—The SCOTUS has struck down Biden’s vaccine mandates on the grounds that they are unconstitutional. Experts say this sets a dangerous precedent of letting individuals make their own medical decisions.
"What am I supposed to do now that I don’t have private companies working with the Federal government to force me to inject a foreign substance into my body?" said Linda Waddlebum, a concerned mother of 6 cats. "So dangerous and shortsighted. How will I stay healthy? I don’t even recognize this America anymore."
In response to the court’s decision, a large group of protestors has gathered outside of the Supreme Court building. "Pfizer knows best! What they inject, I can’t object!" they chanted while ripping up copies of the constitution. "Give us petty tyranny or give us death! Abolish the Supreme Court!"
"You can’t give people choices! What if they make the wrong one? One that isn’t what I wanted them to do?" said Waddlebum. "Next thing you know, people will decide to send their kids back to school and return to work in person without masks."
At publishing time, people were dangerously continuing on with their lives making the best medical decisions possible for themselves and their families. They were even able to make these decisions without fear of losing their livelihood.

And you know, there are actually companies out there who are starved for people who are qualified, reliable, work hard, and can pass drug tests and / or background checks. They are generally not all that plentiful.

On the other hand, Citicorp kept the mask mandate.
Their 4Q profits were down 29% from last year, but they are focusing on the important things!

1. No, being sick for 4 days isn't allergies. No matter what the wife keeps saying.
2. Driving oneself the hospitals community location is useless. You will wait hours because to the Triage Process and still fall thru the cracks.
3. Driving to the Hospital ER and checking in is also tactically useless. Which you figure out after 7 hours and 49 minutes of watching the wife sit in a wheelchair waiting, waiting, waiting and waiting WITHOUT further attention.
4. Return home and called 9-1-1.
5. 9-1-1 produces near IMMEDIATE Fire Dept. response.
6. Triage by Fire Dept member results in a private AMBO arriving all within 30 mins.
7. The patient is loaded up and taken back to the same Hospital ER by AMBO.
8. The patient is re-tested for COVID-19, which produce the same positive Covid-19 positive results as before.
9. ER Staff attention is immediate, full and swift. Unlike being a walk-in.
10. Within 30 mins of the 2nd arrival, the patient this time is quickly assigned Infectious ICU room.
11. Nurses & Doctor introduce themselves the patient, standard Covid-19 POE and treatment starts all within 2 hours of ER AMBO arrival.
12. The Medicare Vampires surround the patients and the start of medical care is administered. Then over the next 10 days the patient is cared for by some of the best VISA nurses and doctors. Which came to the USA as far away as Pakistan, South/Central America, and the UK to work 180 day VISAs to care for our loved ones and ourselves.

Flu currently hitting my area hard. Nursing homes all Vaxed and having mass outbreaks of sickness. Women very pregnant harped on to get vaccine for herself and baby. Having seen family members having problems after vaccine will have no part of it. This VAX hysteria will not end soon.

An alternate, yet more effective method, is to have planned for this. Identify a doctor that will prescribe Ivermectin and a zpack, then buy it. Research the protocol around the ivermectin treatment, buy the vitamins and other items. Have them all ready and when you get COVID, we all will get it vaccinated or not, and start the protocol. Take care of your family in these times where the messages from our government seem to be do nothing until your about to die.

Hospitals never put their best people in the ER. In California, even without COVID, you'll wait while the staff tends to illegal aliens who use the ER as a substitute for a primary care physician because they have no insurance and no money. It's like being in the Third World.

But, yes, I've heard it from numerous other sources. People who arrive at the ER via ambulance are treated before those who drive themselves.

Yes. Trying to find such a doc now. Appreciate suggestions -- no restrictions on (US) geography. tia, MF

Stuff like this is why I was talking about the Spanish Nursing Home protocol. A major part of it is something you could buy over the counter and your chances of getting a Z-Pac are probably higher than getting hydroxychloroquine or ivermectin.
Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin
[ColonelCassad] Preliminary official data on the victims of the events in Kazakhstan.
The dead (who were admitted to morgues) - 225 people (of which one is a citizen of the Russian Federation, as well as 19 policemen and security officials), of which 176 died in hospitals.
Wounded and injured - 4,578 people (265 of them in hospitals, 67 of them in intensive care).
Of the more than 8,000 detainees following the riots and the attempted coup, 446 people were arrested. 540 criminal cases were initiated.
The figure of 20,000 militants (only in Alma-Ata) did not find any statistical confirmation.
These are still preliminary figures, but it is expected that they will not change very much.
In general, following the events, the following questions remain:
1. Where is Nazarbayev?
2. What did Nazarbayev do from 1 to 10 January.
3. How much was actually the "combat asset" to which Alma-Ata surrendered?
4. Who exactly sent this "asset"?
5. What external forces were in contact with those who controlled the process in Kazakhstan?
6. Who exactly gave the order to hand over the guns (especially the guns of the KNB)?
7. What were the tasks of a group of militants who seized the airport in Alma-Ata?
8. Where did the bulk of the militants deploy from?
From other things in Kazakhstan.
1. Lukashenko said that they developed the CSTO operation in Kazakhstan together with Putin in an hour.
2. The withdrawal of the CSTO troops from Kazakhstan will be completed by January 20.
3. The Deputy Minister of Energy of Kazakhstan and a number of people were arrested for 2 months for increasing gas tariffs, which led to protests.
Ignoring Mr. McCarthy’s repeated insistence that Donald Trump is an evil lying liar and that Joe Biden won fair and square, ignoring his ignoring of the part the FBI’s many informants and agents provocateur played in the events of the day, he makes a useful point about the January 6 prosecutions. Select paragraphs:
NationalReview] Two elements are indispensable to the crime of seditious conspiracy. First, there must be an agreement to use force, as opposed to protesting peacefully — even if rambunctiously. Second is the concept of levying war against the United States or opposing the lawful authority of the United States. Now that the Justice Department has been goaded into charging members of the Oath Keepers with seditious conspiracy for their participation in the Capitol riot, prosecutors may find that these elements pose insuperable challenges to their case.
The indictment filed Thursday necessitates revisiting this subject. It does not, however, change what I’ve already said about it, back in June: The actions of then-president Donald Trump ...Perhaps no man has ever had as much fun being president of the US... before and during the riot undermine seditious-conspiracy charges.

Experts say the rarely used charge is hard to prove, but the case is strong; far-right militia accused of preparing to deliver arms to members on January 6, if need arose.

Note that Andy McCarthy has constantly defended the professionalism, ethics, and integrity of the DOJ and FBI. 'Nuff said.

Andy Mac shredded his credibility years ago when he tried to defend the FB-eye while exposing the Russia Hoax.
He's another D.C. area conservative cuck who's terrified that his livelihood and his family will be targeted if he's seen to be in the Orange Man's camp.

It appears to me the Oath Keepers were prepared to deliver weapons to protestors if the feds opened fire on the protestors. This is consistent with the Oath Keepers' mission and, IMHO, the moral thing to do.
As that never happened -- excepting the cold blooded murder of Ashli Babbit -- the Oath Keepers were just observers, ensuring the feds didn't violate THEIR oaths en masse.

Ahhh, but if their defense is "Trump made me do it", then the Dem Congress will try to ban Trump forever. So I like #5 defense.

Increasingly clear they plan to use the process as the punishment and the example to intimidate others. The have weaponised our federal justice system to incite fear in citizens exercising their constitutional rights.
[Babylon Bee] Recent national indicators have hinted that the Biden Administration may not be as popular as hoped. These revelations have forced strategists for the Democrat party to face the truth that Vice President Kamala Harris is so disliked, the nation would rather consider Hillary Clinton.
"National polls, which never lie, have shown that Americans would prefer Hillary Clinton over Kamala Harris, which is pretty bad," said political pollster Stanlip Bilksmear, "Even more disturbing, they both polled worse than ’The propped up corpse of serial killer John Wayne Gacy.’ That wasn’t even an option in our poll; Americans wrote it in."
Bilksmear explained that shifts toward favorability of previously-hated politicians are not uncommon, due to peoples’ tendency to forget the harsh nastiness of some public figures. "Voters seem to have already forgotten that Hillary Clinton is as likable as a tapeworm."
A spokesperson for the Vice President denied rumors that Harris was disliked, but would not comment further because he had already quit.

[SHAFAQ] The prevailing discourse in the United States is becoming dominated by the belief that the Middle East has lost its central position in the strategic calculations of the superpower. USA’s reliance on Middle Eastern oil has significantly reduced since the beginning of an era of uni-polarity; in fact, the US is now one of the biggest oil exporters in the world. Though the Middle East remains an area of secondary concern for the US, as a big chunk of the world’s energy supply comes from the Persian Gulf and stability in this region is necessary to sustain the global oil market and ensure consistency in terms of international economic order.
The primary focus of US foreign policy has shifted to the Asia Pacific region and the rise of China as an economic, military, and tech power. As of now, the US maintains the presence of over forty thousand troops on the ground in almost all Middle Eastern countries except Iran. The American disengagement in the region is not an option, leading to a significant reduction in troops; however, the military footprint has begun, particularly the defense infrastructure. According to reports, the Pentagon is scaling back on eleven Patriot and THAAD antimissile batteries from four regional countries, including Iraq and Saudi Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. Fifteen of the nineteen WTC hijackers were Saudis, and most major jihadi commanders were Saudis, to include Osama bin Laden. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman quietly folded that tent in 2016, doing terrible things to the guys running it, and has since been dragging the kingdom into the current century... How is the US surviving in the Middle East despite reduced influence?
