COVID 'social distancing'? 'No evidence' supporting 6-foot demands | WND | by Bob Unruh
COVID 'social distancing'? 'No evidence' supporting 6-foot demands | WND | by Bob Unruh:
It was, according to a report at The Federalist, perpetrated by former National Institutes of Health chief Francis "Collins and crew, including the smug and self-righteous Dr. Anthony Fauci, the immunologist who ran the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases for a dangerously long time, made a very good living segregating a society at an unprecedented level. The damage done from the scientists’ sign-off on a long and cruel isolation experiment will take a long time to fully measure."
But the whole idea of a "distancing" was based on … no science.

WHO considers granting special privileges to abortion industry | WND | by Bob Unruh:

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?...
