Aaron Rodgers says NFL wanted a vaccination rate over 90% | Blaze Media
Aaron Rodgers says NFL wanted a vaccination rate over 90% | Blaze Media:
"In the NFL, there was a strong push. They sent stooges out to every team to try and enforce a vaccination level above 90% on every team with zero exemption, with zero informed consent. 'Just get this so that we look good, because Big Pharma's ad spend is humongous,' not just on the late-night shows, it obviously influences Hollywood [and] the NFL."
Rodgers explained that only players had a choice surrounding vaccination but staff members did not, and they would allegedly be fired if they didn't get vaccinated. He added that he was thanked by members of the organization for raising questions to NFL staff.

Biden gets sued again for natural gas export ban | WND | by Bob Unruh
Biden gets sued again for natural gas export ban | WND | by Bob Unruh:
"Nothing in the Natural Gas Act authorizes the Department of Energy to halt all LNG export applications. For that reason, as recently as July of 2023, the Department of Energy denied a petition calling for a halt to the approval of all new LNG export licenses. In its rejection, the department stated that it had 'no factual or legal basis' for 'halt[ing] approval of pending applications to export LNG,'" they reported.
Then Biden, in January, simply declared a ban, "effective immediately and indefinitely."
The lawsuit charges that the ban violates federal law as well as the Constitution's separation of powers and exceeds Biden's authority.

Communism Isn’t Cool, It’s Deadly - William Wolfe
To dispel the myth of communism as some utopian, hip, climate-friendly alternative to free-market capitalism, it’s critically important to distinguish between the idealized version of communism presented in popular culture and the harsh reality of its implementation in real life.
- Over the last few decades, there has been a resurgence of interest in — and support for — communism among America’s younger generations.
- In 2019, the Independent reported that “More than a third of millennials in the US now approve of communism, while the popularity of capitalism has plummeted since 2018, according to YouGov polling.
- The survey found just 57 percent of 23 to 38-year-olds believe the Declaration of Independence better ‘guarantees freedom and equality’ than the Communist Manifesto, with only 50 percent viewing capitalism favorably.”
How could this happen?
How could the deadliest political ideology of the 20th century, and one of the deadliest political ideologies in human history, be garnering this much support from younger Americans?...

Courage begets courage on campus - American Thinker
Prevalent examples in history of courage and bravery should spur us to respond. - American Thinker - Julia Campbell"History gives us conviction and guidance.
Today, as we watch ravaging antisemitism and the defacing of the American flag on university campuses, prevalent examples in history of courage and bravery should spur us to respond.
In 1942, German medical student Hans Scholl was awakened to the persecution of Jews in the Western world. While serving on the Eastern Front, Scholl and his war buddies, Willi Graf and Alexander Schmorell, witnessed firsthand the Nazis’ murder of innocent Polish Jewish civilians.However, those who take courageous actions must be prepared for consequences.
Scholl committed to exposing the evil being done against the Jewish population. Together with Graf, Schmorell, Sophia Scholl, and Christoph Probst, he began secretly planting pamphlets on the campus of the University of Munich in Germany. This small resistance group titled themselves The White Rose — white roses being a symbol of purity and innocence in the face of evil. These pamphlets called upon students to rebel against the Nazi regime and the barbaric treatment of Jews with slogans of “We are your bad conscience. The White Rose will not leave you in peace.” and “We will not be silent.”...
On February 22, 1934, Hans, Sophie, and Christoph were arrested, interrogated, and beheaded...
