FDA Proposes Yearly Wuhan Flu Shots

By William Teach January 24, 2023 – 7:00 am

My first thought on this includes the phrase “f*** off.” My second is “f*** right off.”

US proposes once-a-year COVID shots for most Americans

U.S. health officials want to make COVID-19 vaccinations more like the annual flu shot.

The Food and Drug Administration on Monday proposed a simplified approach for future vaccination efforts, allowing most adults and children to get a once-a-year shot to protect against the mutating virus.

This means Americans would no longer have to keep track of how many shots they’ve received or how many months it’s been since their last booster.

The proposal comes as boosters have become a hard sell. While more than 80% of the U.S. population has had at least one vaccine dose, only 16% of those eligible have received the latest boosters authorized in August.

The FDA will ask its panel of outside vaccine experts to weigh in at a meeting Thursday. The agency is expected to take their advice into consideration while deciding future vaccine requirements for manufacturers.

In documents posted online, FDA scientists say many Americans now have “sufficient preexisting immunity” against the coronavirus because of vaccination, infection or a combination of the two. That baseline of protection should be enough to move to an annual booster against the latest strains in circulation and make COVID-19 vaccinations more like the yearly flu shot, according to the agency.

If the vaccines were working as stated, it might make sense. They aren’t. Yes, yes, there are the side effects, but, realistically, how many meds/treatments do you see on TV with all sorts of side effects, up to and including death? I had to stay away from a certain allergy medicine because it was giving me bloody noses. But, the COVID vaccines are really not stopping people from getting COVID, now, are they. Are they really reducing the symptoms of COVID? I know a bunch of folks who have gotten COVID over the last 6-9 months, who haven’t had their booster, if they got one, since September 2021. They were fine. Now, maybe if they have serious pre-existing conditions, it might be worth it. But, with COVID changing so much, would they even target the strains? Every year the flu shot targets a bunch of different flu strains, and, hopefully you do not get a different one.

If they can develop a vaccine that actually works to stop people from getting COVID, I’ll take another.

Meanwhile, for a laugh

Good News: Only 1.2 Million Illegals Evade Border Patrol, “Got Away”

By William Teach January 23, 2023 – 3:00 pm

In other words, the number is probably at least double

Border agents confirm 1.2 million ‘gotaway’ migrants under Biden administration

U.S. border agents have confirmed that 1.2 million illegal migrants “got away” from authorities while crossing the border under President Biden’s administration, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) sources told Fox News on Sunday.

CBP tracks hundreds of thousands of migrant encounters at the U.S.-Mexico Border every month, but that stat does not include the number of known “gotaways,” or migrants who were detected by authorities but not apprehended. Since Biden entered office in January 2021, border crossings have exploded, and at least 1.2 million migrants successfully evaded authorities.

The first half of Biden’s four-year term saw monthly border encounters rise from 101,000 in February 2021 to 251,000 in December 2022, according to CBP stats.

This doesn’t even account for all the ones who were caught/voluntarily allowed themselves to be caught, then were released while waiting for their hearing, most of whom will simply not bother showing up for the hearing. Those who do and are denied asylum will simply disappear afterwards, rather than being immediately deported.

The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) saw an estimated 718,000 border encounters in the first 100 days of fiscal year 2023, which began October 1.

How many did they not see, and who are here illegally? The majority of the costs hit the taxpayers at the state, county, and local levels. Their services suffer. Their crime spikes. It’s their homes and cars getting broken into, their hospitals and clinics over-run, their streets being filthy, their grocery stores being looted, their schools suffering because Los Federales are slamming kids who cannot speak the language and do not have the same mores.

Under Biden, MS13 Gang Member Released, Then Murders Kayla Hamilton

By William Teach January 23, 2023 – 10:30 am

I asked the questions the other day in mentioning the murder “When did he come into the country? Did he completely sneak in, or, was he caught and released?” Now we know

Report: Illegal MS-13 Gang Member, Accused of Murdering Kayla Hamilton, Was Freed into U.S. by Biden’s DHS

Joe Biden Ice Cream AfghanistanAn illegal alien MS-13 gang member accused of murdering 20-year-old Kayla Marie Hamilton last summer in Aberdeen, Maryland, had been reportedly freed into the United States by President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) after arriving at the southern border.

As Breitbart News reported last week, the Aberdeen Police Department arrested a 17-year-old illegal alien MS-13 Gang member from El Salvador in connection with Hamilton’s murder. He is expected to be charged with first-degree murder. Police have not released the suspect’s full identity to the public.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials confirmed to police that the suspect is an illegal alien from El Salvador and is listed in the nation’s database of MS-13 gang members.

Former ICE official Jon Feere, with the Center for Immigration Studies, reports that the illegal alien suspect had been released from the border into the U.S. interior by Biden’s DHS as an Unaccompanied Alien Child (UAC).

So, he came in under Biden, and was released under Biden’s policies. No one bothered to verify who this kid was. Or, did they, and still release him? MS-13 gang members would certainly have at least one identifying tattoo. I wonder if it’s possible to sue Biden and the people who run ICE for failing to do the job in deporting dangerous illegals?

Meanwhile

A major border city is on the brink of collapse because of Biden’s immigration policies, local official says

A major border city is on the brink of collapse as the migrant surge under President Biden’s leadership overloads food banks and hospitals and threatens food security, a Yuma official told Fox News.

“Policies need to be changed when you see an unprecedented amount of people coming across the border that even supersedes what we saw under any of the other presidents for the past 30 years,” Yuma County Supervisor Jonathan Lines told Fox News. “And they’re coming because they said that Biden told them to come, that we have an open border.” (snip)

El Paso, Texas, another border town, declared a state of emergency as thousands of migrants camped in the streets during below-freezing temperatures in December. Many migrant shelters were over capacity, leading the city to use the local airport for temporary refuge.

It’s not going to get better with Biden in charge. Texas needs to ship a ton more illegals to Washington and the two towns Biden has homes in. Since they aren’t allowed to ship them back across the border.

Your Fault: ‘Climate Change’ Could Make It Harder To See The Cosmos

By William Teach January 23, 2023 – 7:15 am

Stop resisting. Give your money and freedom up to Government already. Otherwise, deep space shots like this may possibly not be possible In The Future

How Our View of the Universe Could Slowly Fade Away

Toni Santana-Ros is an asteroid hunter.

At nightfall, after the final scenes of fiery clouds and flamingo sunbeams fade to black, he peers up at the sky to watch space rocks swimming along our solar system’s gravitational tides. Sometimes, he sees shards casually cruising next to Earth, greeting telescopes with a gentle “hey,” never to be observed again.

Occasionally, he catches one on a crash course with our delicate blue orb.

Last year, Santana-Ros, a planetary scientist at the University of Alicante in Spain, sprung into action when astronomers realized an asteroid named 2022 WJ1 was headed straight for the border of Canada and the United States. With barely four hours on the clock, he mustered his team to help pinpoint how menacing this asteroid would be.

What towns would it threaten? Would it be like the dinosaur-killing Chicxulub or merely make a “plop” sound before sinking into a sturdy body of water? “Luckily,” he concluded, “the object was small and just produced a spectacular fireball.”

But what if such a time-sensitive asteroid warning had been sent out in November of 2020, when Santana-Ros’ telescopes were shut down because of bushfires ravaging the region and covering lenses with inky layers of ash? Or in February of 2021, when bushfire debris made its way into some telescopes, forcing astronomers to dismount instruments and pull blobs of soot from them after the wind settled?

“Climate change is already affecting astronomy and my work,” Santana-Ros said.

No matter the question, the climate cult always has the answer. Heck, if there’s no question, they’ll make one up. Because wildfires never happened before fossil fueled vehicles.

Time and again, studies have shown that climate change is leading to an increase in wildfire occurrence and severity as the years go by. With our present greenhouse gas emission trajectory, some models even predict that the risk of very large wildfires in the US will increase sixfold by the middle of the century.

Who pays the price when this fails to happen?

Cyclones, floods, fires and droughts are becoming the norm in astronomy hubs like Hawaii and New Mexico. Sites like the Les Makes Observatory in Paris were hit by severe storms at the same time Santana-Ros had to contend with wildfires near his tools in Australia.

And it’s not just full-on disasters that we have to worry about. It’s also the smaller things: changes in temperature, humidity, steady weather – elements telescopes usually rely on to operate in tip-top shape.

Yes, storms never happened before. The climate never changed. The weather was always steady before 1850. This is a cult.

DOJ Considering Search Of Biden’s Beach House

By William Teach January 23, 2023 – 7:00 am

Of course, unlike with Trump, they’ll ask “pretty please with sugar on top?” while Biden’s lawyers, who do not have security clearances, scrub the house

Biden Docs: DOJ prosecutors weighing search of Biden’s Rehoboth home

Justice Department prosecutors are reportedly considering requesting a search of President Biden’s home in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, after several sets of classified documents were found at his Wilmington, Delaware, home in recent weeks.

News of the consideration comes days after FBI officials searched Biden’s Wilmington home at the invitation of the White House. There, officials uncovered a fourth batch of misplaced classified documents, leading DOJ officials to consider searches at other locations connected to Biden, according to CBS News.

The DOJ has not pursued a search warrant for any of Biden’s properties, however. The Friday search in Wilmington was consensual, and prosecutors would plan to request access to Biden’s other properties.

So, classified documents that Biden should not have had have been found in four places, unsecured, and the DOJ isn’t interested in getting a warrant? They’re just, for the moment, letting Biden’s lawyers search his homes? Seriously, how does he not know about all these documents in his home?

FBI Raided Biden’s Home Friday

By William Teach January 22, 2023 – 7:00 am

By raided, I mean they quietly showed up at the invitation of Biden’s lawyers, looked around, took a few documents, then left. And will bury any problematic issues, refusing to saying anything

FBI searched Biden home, found documents marked classified

The FBI searched President Joe Biden’s home in Wilmington, Delaware on Friday and located six additional documents containing classified markings and also took possession of some of his notes, the president’s lawyer said Saturday.

Bob Bauer, the president’s personal lawyer, said the search of the entire premises lasted nearly 13 hours. The documents taken by the FBI spanned Biden’s time in the Senate and the vice presidency, while the notes dated to his time as vice president. The level of classification, and whether they remained classified, was not immediately clear as the Justice Department reviews the records.

The search followed more than a week after Biden’s attorneys found six classified documents in the president’s home library from his time as vice president, and nearly three months after lawyers found a small number of classified records at his former offices at the Penn Biden Center in Washington. It came a day after Biden maintained that “there’s no there there” on the document discoveries, which have become a political headache for the president and complicated the Justice Department’s probe into former President Donald Trump’s retention of classified documents and official records after he left office. (snip)

It remains to be seen whether additional searches by federal officials of other locations might be conducted. Biden’s personal attorneys previously conducted a search of the Rehoboth Beach residence and said they did not find any official documents or classified records.

So, with Trump, the politicized DOJ did an early morning raid with agents all decked out in body armor, carrying military grade weapons. Furiously searching, tearing apart Melania’s closet, going through her underwear drawer. Taking everything they could pick up, regardless of what it was. They made sure the Credentialed Media was present to film and broadcast it all. And to let them know quickly what the classification was. The exact opposite of what they did with Biden, who, apparently, had classified documents going back to when he was in the Senate, and would damned sure not have authorization to have them sitting around in his house, especially not with his drug addled son Hunter hanging out.

When does the search of his beach house take place? Will his lawyers be alerted and present, despite not having security clearances?

Biden tanked Jimmy Carter’s nominee for CIA over mishandled classified docs

As a senator in the 1970s, Joe Biden tanked then-President Jimmy Carter’s pick to lead the Central Intelligence Agency over the nominee’s illegal possession of classified documents.

Carter chose Ted Sorenson to serve as his CIA director in 1977.

Sorenson had admitted to taking boxes of classified records home with him after leaving the White House in 1964, and using the materials for his work in writing a biography of former President John F. Kennedy. Sorenson’s admission to this came in affidavits used in cases involving the Pentagon Papers.

At the time, Biden considered the affidavit and joined with Republicans to block Sorenson from being confirmed by the Senate. Biden also suggested Sorenson may have violated the Espionage Act.

So, by Biden’s own suggestion, he could be charged with violating the Espionage Act.

Your Fault: Polar Bear Kills Two In Alaska

By William Teach January 21, 2023 – 3:00 pm

Unsurprisingly, Newsweek climate cult writer Robyn White leaves something out. Or, just didn’t bother to do any research

Climate Change Possibly a Factor in Fatal Polar Bear Attack

Climate change may have been a factor in a recent fatal polar bear attack in Alaska.

Summer Myomick, 24, was walking through a snowstorm on Tuesday with her 1-year-old son, Clyde Ongtowasruk, in the western village of Wales when the polar bear attacked. The incident occurred near a school, Alaska’s Department of Public Safety said.

The polar bear reportedly chased multiple residents before killing the mother and child. During the attack, the animal was shot and killed by a resident.

This was the first fatal bear attack to occur in Alaska since 1990. A necropsy of the bear has not yet taken place, but it appears the attack was unprovoked. There could be several reasons for the bear’s violent action, according to one expert, and climate change is one of them.

It either did or didn’t play a factor. This whole “may have” fearmongering is complete mule fritters

David Meanwell, director of the Bear Conservation nonprofit, continued: “Where attacks take place, they are most commonly made by young and inexperienced bears or by bears that are nearing the end of their life; in other words, by inexperienced bears or desperate bears. In both cases, the usual reason for the attack is predation.

“In short, if this was a young or old bear it could well be that the animal was hungry and the attack predatory,” Meanwell said. “That is unusual at this time of year, so if the bear was healthy, it is indeed possible that climate change may have been a factor.”

Robyn essentially spoke with (probably emailed) Meanwell and one other person, and, then decided to run this scaremongering cult piece, without waiting for the autopsy on the bear to see if it was old, young, diseased, or hungry, the usual causes of the attack. Of course, there’s this one thing

That red arrow points towards Wales, Alaska. The highlighted area is the range of polar bears. The full map comes from Alaska Fish And Game. So, this is in range of polar bears.
