2021-07-24 at 5:59 PM UTCSo they're now saying the gene therapy jab does not prevent you from getting Covid, does not protect you from the so-called Covid variants, but healthy people who refuse to inject an untested and highly experimental mystery concoction are killing Granny? Just goes to prove how bad we're all being played right now by the clowns in charge and their mindless enablers. Time to wake up, because these fear-mongering fraudsters already have the winter state of martial law all planned out and ready to go, shutting down all small businesses again, based on nothing but pseudoscience, manufactured public opinion and completely fake numbers.

Joe Biden Says GOP Lawmakers Have Finally 'Seen the Lord,' Embraced COVID Vaccines
Benjamin Fearnow
President Joe Biden said many GOP lawmakers have finally "seen the Lord" and begun promoting COVID-19 vaccinations for all Americans, while declaring that the U.S. now faces a "pandemic of the unvaccinated."
During a campaign event in Arlington, Virginia, for Virginia Democratic gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe on Friday, Biden touted his administration for vaccinating more than 160 million Americans and creating "more jobs than any administration has in the first six months in presidential history."
Biden commended numerous Republicans and conservative members of the news media for embracing the vaccines, dropping his latest religious reference to their sudden "epiphany" on the issue.
"And, by the way — you know the old expression — you notice a lot of our very conservative friends have finally had an 'altar call,'" Biden said Friday, referencing a tradition among some Christian churches to invite people forward during services to make a public commitment to their faith in Jesus Christ.
"They've seen the Lord, whether it's on Fox News or whether it's the most conservative commentators or governors," the president continued.

Biden, a practicing Catholic, has made several Christian and Biblical references in order to describe how many Republicans and conservative pundits have recently flipped their stances toward vaccinations.
This week, Alabama Governor Kay Ivey, a Republican, made an impassioned plea with Alabamians to get vaccinated as she blamed a surge of so-called Delta variant cases on "unvaccinated folks."
Biden told reporters in Hebron, Kentucky, on Wednesday that he is glad Republicans and Fox News commentators have "changed their tune" about the vaccines. The president suggested many GOP critics were only opposed to the COVID-19 vaccines to score cheap political points with anti-vaccination members of their base.
"I don't know how many of them believed what they were saying," Biden said. "But I think once the realization occurred that this virus was only killing primarily those people who had not been vaccinated I think it was, as we Catholics say, a bit of an epiphany for them. You know, it was a conversion on the way to Damascus or something."
Louisiana, Missouri and Arkansas have all seen the largest surge in new coronavirus cases over the past 14 days.
"I know this has gotten a bit politicized but I hope it's starting to change. It's not about red states or blue states or guys like that hollering. It's about life and it's about death," Biden said at the Virginia campaign event on Friday, referencing a pro-Trump heckler who was chanting in the crowd.
Biden went on to tout his administration's efforts in rebooting the U.S. economy as he noted that economic growth is expected to be nearly double what was predicted at the beginning of the year.
Meanwhile, the White House declined on Friday to release any data on breakthrough COVID-19 cases among staff members.
"As many medical experts have said, inside and outside of the government, those who are vaccinated are protected from serious illness," White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said at a briefing. "Most are asymptomatic if they are individuals who are vaccinated." -

This natural health doctor has published over 600 articles claiming coronavirus vaccines are a fraud - he's part of the 'disinformation dozen' responsible for the vast majority of COVID-19 misinformation on Facebook
lcasado@businessinsider.com (Laura Casado)
12 people are responsible for the majority of COVID-19 disinformation being spread online, a CCDH study found.
Number one is Joseph Mercola, a natural health doctor who publishes anti-vaxx claims to a following of 3.6 million on social media.
One of Mercola's articles, "Could Hydrogen Peroxide Treat Coronavirus?", was shared nearly 5,000 times on Facebook.
A March report from the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) found that most COVID-19 disinformation online is being spread by just 12 people. A Facebook analysis found that 73% of 689,000 anti-coronavirus vaccinations posts shared between February and mid-March came from this group.
Among the 12 are Robert F Kennedy Jr, the nephew of former President John F Kennedy, who has been an anti-vaxxer long before the pandemic. In the 1990s, Kennedy Jr began to spread disinformation that some vaccines given in childhood were connected to autism diagnoses and the development of allergies.
More recently, in a letter addressed to President Biden, Kennedy Jr. claimed that the CDC is administering propaganda and that "the sad reality is vaccines cause injuries and death." Later in the same letter, however, he also wrote that it'd be impossible for autopsies determine if death was caused by a "vaccine adverse event."
But beating Robert F Kennedy Jr to the No. 1 spot in the 'disinformation dozen' is Joseph Mercola, a natural health doctor based in Cape Coral, Florida.
Mercola is no newcomer to the anti-vaxx movement
According to the New York Times, Mercola has built his career on far-fetched health notions, including claims that spring mattresses amplify radiation and that tanning beds can reduce the chance of getting cancer. Cashing in on his followers, he sold them at-home tanning beds that cost between $1,200 and $4,000. He was then sued by the Federal Trading Commission and agreed to pay his customers refunds totaling $5.3 million, according to a 2016 report from the Chicago Tribune.
During the coronavirus pandemic, Mercola has focused his zeal against COVID vaccines.
Articles published on his website include "Thyme Extract Helps Treat COVID-19" and another titled "Could Hydrogen Peroxide Treat Coronavirus?" which was published in April and shared on Facebook 4,600 times, according to screenshots in the CCDH's report.
Mercola later removed the hydrogen peroxide article, and others, from his site, due to what he called the "fearmongering media and corrupt politicians" censoring his content, which he alleges have led to personal threats.
US health officials have called out social media platforms and conservative news outlets, like Fox News, for their role in allowing the spread of vaccination misinformation, especially as new cases are again on the rise.
Over the past week, the US reported an average of nearly 50,000 new COVID-19 infections each day, according to CDC data. The rise in new infections come amid the spread of the more contagious delta variant of the disease. CDC Director Rochelle Walensky previously called the uptick in cases a "pandemic of the unvaccinated."
With an audience of 3.6 million over Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, the CCDH report found that Mercola has been the most far-reaching spreader of COVID disinformation.
In an emailed response to the Times, Mercola said it was "quite peculiar to me that I am named as the #1 superspreader of misinformation."
While some social media platforms have taken steps to identify and remove disinformation, many of the 12 people's accounts are still active, including Mercola's, where he often shared multiple posts a day. -

Here's the actual link and notice where the title clearly states (Bill Barr's) "FEDS CLAIM".

Trump Bible photo op not reason cops violently cleared George Floyd protest outside White House, feds claim
Dan Mangan
The Interior Department’s watchdog claimed police cleared racial justice protesters outside the White House last June in order to “allow a contractor” to install new fencing.
Then-President Donald Trump staged a widely criticized photo op while wielding a Bible after Lafayette Park was cleared on June 1 of people protesting the police killing of George Floyd.
Then-Attorney General William Barr was among the Cabinet officers who accompanied Trump.
The Interior Department’s watchdog claimed in a new report Wednesday that police violently cleared protesters from a park outside the White House last June to allow a contractor to install security fencing, not to enable then-President Donald Trump to stage a widely criticized photo op while wielding a Bible.
But it also faulted the U.S. Park Police for failing to give dispersal warnings to the racial justice protesters that were loud enough for all of them to hear before the clearing of Lafayette Park began on June 1, 2020, with cops using rubber bullets and tear gas to accomplish the task.
And the report by the Interior Department’s inspector general specifically did not address claims of excessive force used against individual protesters and reporters by police, saying “those are the subject of separate inquiries as well as ongoing lawsuits.”
Nation’s top military officer apologizes for appearing at Trump church photo-op
The protests began around Lafayette Park on May 29, 2020, on the heels of the killing of George Floyd, a Black man, by Minneapolis police.
Police began sweeping the park of protesters at 6:23 p.m. on June 1, 2020, and completed the operation by 6:50 p.m., the inspector general’s report noted.
Eleven minutes later, the report said, Trump “walked from the White House through Lafayette Park to St. John’s Church,” which is nearby.
The Republican president, who had been critical of the protests that swept the nation on the heels of Floyd’s murder, then held aloft a Bible so that television and still cameras could capture the image.
Trump was accompanied on his way through the park by then-Attorney General William Barr, then-Defense Secretary Mark Esper and U.S. Army Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, who was dressed in a camouflage combat uniform, not his dress uniform.
The report said that at 7:30 p.m., a contractor began assembling and installing the new fence and completed the work within about five hours.
“The evidence we reviewed showed that the USPP cleared the park to allow a contractor to safely install antiscale fencing in response to the destruction of Federal property and injury to officers that occurred on May 30 and May 31,” wrote Inspector General Mark Lee Greenblatt in a statement released with the report.
The watchdog’s report backed up Barr’s claim, made less than a week after the incident on CBS News’ “Face the Nation,” that, “This was not an operation to respond to that particular crowd. It was an operation to move the perimeter one block.”
“When I came in Monday [June 1] it was clear to me that we did have to increase the perimeter on that side of Lafayette Park and push it out one block,” Barr said on the show. “That decision was made by me in the morning. It was communicated to all the police agencies.”
The attorney general said “the media is missing” that fact in reporting about Trump’s photo op.

“Moreover, the evidence established that relevant USPP officials had made those decisions and had begun implementing the operational plan several hours before they knew of a potential Presidential visit to the park, which occurred later that day,” Greenblatt wrote.
“As such, we determined that the evidence did not support a finding that the USPP cleared the park on June 1, 2020, so that then President Trump could enter the park.”
Greenblatt, during an interview later with NBC News, said, “We have no evidence that the attorney general ordered this operation.”
“We have evidence from all of the key U.S. Park Police officials, who owned this decision, and the operational plan,” the inspector general said. “They said they made the call and they were credible and all the corroborating evidence that we could find seems to support that finding.”
Greenblatt also during the same interview discussed a section of the report that detailed how Barr had walked out of the White House and asked the police incident commander at the scene why protesters were still in the park when that commander warned him that “this is a very dangerous area.”
“Why are the protesters here? Are they going to be cleared out for the POTUS visit,” Barr said to the commander, according to Greenblatt.
“And, at that point, apparently, the incident commander told us that he slumped shoulders — you can see this on video — he slumped shoulders and said, ‘are you freaking kidding me?’” Greenblatt said.
“And that reflected to us the fact that he did not know that there was going to be a potential presidential visit,” Greenblatt said. “And, as I said earlier, the machinations were already underway at that point for them to begin their clearing operation. So, we did not find that the attorney general’s visit or his statements to the incident commander were the catalyst for them to then clear the park.”
Trump later Wednesday released a statement thanking Greenblatt “for Completely and Totally exonerating me in the clearing of Lafayette Park!”
“As we have said all along, and it was backed up in today’s highly detailed and professionally written report, our fine Park Police made the decision to clear the park to allow a contractor to safely install antiscale fencing to protect from Antifa rioters, radical BLM protestors, and other violent demonstrators who are causing chaos and death to our cities,” Trump said.
“In this instance, they tried burning down the church the day before the clearing. Fortunately, we were there to stop the fire from spreading beyond the basement—and it was our great honor and privilege to do so. Again, thank you to the Inspector General!” -

Nation's top military officer apologizes for role in Trump photo op outside church: 'I should not have been there'
"My presence in that moment, and in that environment, created a perception of the military involved in domestic politics," Milley said.
Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, apologized Thursday for his role in President Donald Trump's church photo op last week, saying he shouldn't have been at the scene.
"As many of you saw, the result of the photograph of me at Lafayette Square last week, that sparked a national debate about the role of the military in civil society," Milley said in a prerecorded address at a commencement ceremony at the National Defense University in Washington. "I should not have been there. My presence in that moment, and in that environment, created a perception of the military involved in domestic politics."
"As a commissioned, uniformed officer, it was a mistake that I have learned from, and I sincerely hope we all can learn from it," he continued. "We who wear the cloth of our nation come from the people of our nation. And we must hold dear the principle of an apolitical military that is so deeply rooted in the very essence of our Republic. And this is not easy. It takes time and work and effort. But it may be the most important thing each and every one of us does every single day."
President Trump faces criticism after church visit
Milley's comments come nearly two weeks after the president oversaw a harsh response to peaceful protesters who gathered outside the White House, which was met with condemnation by Democrats, criticism from a handful of Republicans, and pushback from retired military leaders, including Trump's former Defense Secretary James Mattis.
Moments after authorities forcefully cleared the area of protesters, Trump walked with military leaders through from the White House through Lafayette Square to St. John's Episcopal Church, which was damaged by a fire during protests earlier in the week. He stood in front of the church, held up a Bible, and had a few photos taken before returning to the White House. Moments before the crackdown, Trump vowed to use military might to curtail rioting.
Milley, Defense Secretary Mark Esper, Attorney General William Barr and others accompanied Trump to the church.
Speaking with NBC News, Esper said he thought the walk from the White House would be "to see some damage and talk to the troops." The following day, he said that he did know they were embarking on a trip to the church but that he did not know "exactly where we were going when I arrived at the church and what the plans were once we got there."
Video of the incident, as published by The Washington Post, showed officers from several agencies deploying smoke canisters, explosives and irritants to clear the area.
Thursday afternoon, Senate Judiciary Chairman Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., a Trump ally, said he had "deep admiration for and total confidence in" the Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman and supported his statement "in both substance and spirit."
Amid widespread criticism, including from Republican senators, over the forceful clearing of protesters and the photo op, Trump posted a tweet linking to an article critical of the media coverage, writing, "You got it wrong!" and pointing to initial comments from U.S. Park Police. "If the protesters were so peaceful, why did they light the Church on fire the night before? People liked my walk to this historic place of worship!"
Barr, in an interview with CBS's "Face the Nation," pointed to violence at previous protests as a reason for why the protesters needed to be pushed back, adding that those in attendance last Monday "were not peaceful protesters."
"This was not an operation to respond to that particular crowd," Barr said. "It was an operation to move the perimeter one block."
The crackdown and Trump's walk to the church minutes later "were not connected," Barr said.
AND I BELIEVE BARR'S FAT ASS AS FAR AS I CAN THROW THAT FUCKING ASS-KISSING TOADIE!
