Answer? "No!"-----Record Breaking Heatwave in Europe?
"Most of the so-called reporting of the European heatwave seems to have centred around of temperature forecasts, rather than actual ones, along with claims of “records” and images of people enjoying the sun. Factual reporting appears to have taken a holiday!
Take the Telegraph article above, published on 18th July. It begins:
Rome was among several European regions to breach temperature records on Tuesday as a Covid-style protocols were rolled out across Italy to protect its hospitals from the unprecedented heatwave...
Let’s examine some of these claims more closely:
- A new record was set in the Italian capital when the local weather agency recorded highs of 41.8C (107.2F), beating the previous record set in June last year by 1C.

When Republicans Win, the Media Are Hearings-Impaired
- When the Pelosi-Picked Panel on Jan. 6 held hearings, they were broadcast live on ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, NPR, CNN, MSNBC, and Fox News (unless they were in prime time, then Fox Business). All these channels devoted more than 20 hours of airtime to a unanimously anti-Trump panel. The witnesses were unanimously adverse to what Trump did. The hearings were so scripted that there was no moment where anyone said a thing that an average Republican would say in the Grand Old Party's defense.
- None of these networks feel the need to replicate this level of Pelosi pandering now that Republicans hold the House. None of these networks would replicate that pattern of omnipresence for Senate hearings where Republicans might "own the libs" in the Biden administration from the minority...
Hysteria!-----Jason Aldean music video filmed at 'lynching site,' Associated Press claims — it's actually a famous courthouse where 'Hannah Montana' was filmed
"Jason Aldean's new music video was filmed at a lynching site" was the headline various outlets ran with, which dominated several pages of Google search results......As the music video's production company correctly pointed out in a statement, the site is a ”popular filming location outside of Nashville."
- The Columbia courthouse is indeed frequently used for video productions, such as Mario Lopez's movie "Steppin' into the Holiday."
- Even Miley Cyrus' "Hannah Montana: The Movie" was filmed at the famous location, which featured prominently in the film several times...

VAERS data shows that vaccines cause autism
- If autism is not caused by vaccines, the reported rates of autism should be proportional to the number of doses of the vaccine since these are all coincidences.
- But they aren't.
If autism is not related to vaccines, the counts should be proportional to doses administered for that vaccine in childhood when kids are most susceptible.
- What I found is that the number of reports is vaccine-type dependent.
- This is IMPOSSIBLE to explain if vaccines don’t cause autism.
