More than 150 Houston Methodist Hospital employees resigned or have been fired as of Tuesday over a recent policy that required hospital employees to be vaccinated against COVID-19 by Monday.All told, 153 people are no longer employees of the Houston health care chain, Methodist spokesperson Patti Muck said. The hospital has about 25,000 employees, nearly all of whom have abided by the policy, Methodist leaders have said previously.The firings follow a contentious few weeks in which hospital employees staged protests and filed a lawsuit against the hospital, claiming the policy, announced in April, violated their rights. Methodist was one of the first large health care providers

Cop Killers and Not Standing with the Cops’ 16 replies
Representative Eric Swalwell (D-CA) said Thursday on MSNBC’s “Deadline” that the Republican Party was “rolling with the cop killers” instead of standing with the Capitol Police by not backing a bipartisan investigation into the January 6 riot on Capitol Hill.Referencing the select committee House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) announcement earlier, anchor Nicolle Wallace asked, “Joining our conversation, Congressman Eric Swalwell, Democrat from California. He served as an impeachment manager for the second impeachment trial of the ex-president. Congressman, first your reaction to Speaker Pelosi’s announcement today,
Since the Biden Administration assumed power in January, many Americans could be forgiven for feeling like they’re being held hostage, tied up in the trunk of a car, and driven to a place they do not want to go. Nowhere is this more evident than on the immigration problem, where Biden has reversed numerous policies that kept American safe, and it seems he has done so for no other reason than because Donald Trump is the one who put them in place.Because he is beholden to the radical Left for his ascension to the White House, Biden predictably has adopted the usual anti-borders agenda including catch-and-release, demoralizing ICE, and

Infrastructure Deal Announcement Was
One You Probably Didn't See 8 replies
As we reported earlier, things got super weird during a press conference President Joe Biden held earlier today where he announced a bipartisan deal on a bloated infrastructure bill, made possible with the help of the below 11 Republican Senators (in case you were wondering if your Republican Senator was one of them):Richard Burr and Thom Tillis (NC), Bill Cassidy (LA), Susan Collins (ME) Lindsey Graham (SC), Jerry Moran (KS), Lisa Murkowski (AK), Rob Portman (OH), Mitt Romney (UT), Mike Rounds (SC), and Todd Young (IN).In one of the more bizarre moments, Biden actually
On Wednesday, Laura Ingraham, host of “The Ingraham Angle,” blasted General Mark Milley for propagating a “far-left Marxist racist ideology” in the U.S. military over his support of Critical Race Theory.Milley testified before the House Armed Services Committee and was questioned concerning diversity training and racism within the ranks of the military. He stated that he found recent attacks on the military over those issues “offensive.” Milley voiced his support for Critical Race Theory and he blamed the Jan. 6 riot on “white rage.” “I do think it’s important for those of us in uniform to be open-minded and be widely read,” stated Milley seemingly insinuating that troops were closed-minded
President Joe Biden blamed employers not paying staff enough in wages when speaking about concerns of worker shortages during his infrastructure press conference on Thursday. Biden whispered his solution for companies struggling to find workers while taking questions from the press about the $953 billion deal carved out between a bipartisan group of Republicans and Democrats. 'Pay them more', he said while leaning into the microphone and looking out at the crowd.

President Joe Biden offered glowing praise for Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) after he announced an infrastructure deal with him and nine other moderate Republican senators.“In my years in the senate, the single greatest currency you have is your word. Keeping your word,” Biden said. “Mitt Romney has never broken his word to me.”
The Republican senators working with Biden include Romney and Sens. Susan Collins (R-ME), Bill Cassidy (R-LA), Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), and Rob Portman (R-OH).“You know, the senator from Alaska … the senator from Maine, they’ve never broken their word with me,” Biden said. “They’re friends.”
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) on Thursday signed a law that will add a third gender option to birth certificates and licenses in the state.The Gender Recognition Act allows nonbinary individuals to select “X” for their sex on driver’s licenses and there will be an option on birth certificates to select “parent” instead of mother or father, a press release by the governor states.The bill also provides protection against discrimination as New Yorkers no longer have to publish their new and former names, current address, place of birth and date of birth
Cameras captured the moment Vice President Kamala Harris nudged President Joe Biden during a press conference to remind him to mention the Miami condo collapse that has left 99 people unaccounted for and one dead. The nudge came at the end of president Biden's White House press conference on Thursday where he discussed the $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill alongside VP Harris. Biden wrapped up the conference and was ready to walk away, telling reporters he had a helicopter to catch as they shouted questions regarding the Miami condo collapse at him.
Joe Biden praised Kamala Harris on Thursday for her work 'at the border' just two days ahead of her first trip there as criticism mounts over her failure to visit the U.S.-Mexico border in her first 90 days in charge of the crisis.'Mr. President, what are you hoping the Vice President can do at the border tomorrow?' a reporter asked Biden at the end of short remarks on infrastructure followed by a press conference on Thursday. 'She's done a great job so far,' Biden said with Harris by his side as he walked halfway out of the room.
President Joe Biden said Thursday he would not sign a bipartisan infrastructure deal with moderate Republican senators without an additional partisan funding package for entitlements.“I control that. If they don’t come, I’m not signing it. Real simple,” Biden said, when reporters asked how he planned to get both measures through Congress at the same time. Biden spoke to reporters after he met with moderate Senate Republicans and Democrats and announced a deal on infrastructure.

He is also not accused of any violence or vandalism. Videos of the heartbreaking scene were provided to the Gateway Pundit.

“This isn’t the first time Biden’s warned the gov’t would use every weapon in its arsenal against Americans,” quipped Tom Elliott, remembering how Biden said something like this at a rally early last year.
Maybe the Second Amendment should be extended to include F-15s.
Seriously, though, this dumb gun-control talking point is deathless even though it’s never been clearer how untrue it is. Watch, then read on. There are many lessons to be learned from America’s adventure in Afghanistan but an easy one is that a crudely equipped force using guerrilla tactics is fully capable of prevailing over one with superior firepower. That lesson should have been clear already from Vietnam

Earlier today, as RedState reported, Joe Biden launched into another dementia-laden rant where he talked about nuking Americans and shooting deer in kevlar vests. No, I’m not being facetious. That actually happened (see Biden Accidently Makes Best Ever for Second Amendment in Speech Promoting Gun Control Initiatives).
In one of the best arguments for the Second Amendment ever spoken by a president, Biden asserted that no one can stand up to the government without F-15s and nuclear weapons. He seems to have a thing for the F-15, having mentioned it several times in this context and perhaps not realizing that the U.S. Military has an array of other fighter-bombers to murder
Rudy Giuliani’s law license was suspended by the New York Supreme Court on Thursday for making false statements related to voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election, according to court papers.The court ruled there is “uncontroverted evidence” that Giuliani made false statements while he was acting as legal counsel for former President Donald Trump.“These false statements were made to improperly bolster respondent’s narrative that due to widespread voter fraud, victory in the 2020 United States presidential election was stolen from his client,” the ruling stated.
A Massachusetts town has created a fund to pay reparations to black residents as communities and institutions across the country look to atone for slavery, discrimination and past wrongs amid the nation's ongoing racial reckoning. The Amherst Town Council on Monday voted 12-1 in favor of establishing the fund and requiring a two-thirds vote of the council to authorize any spending from it, The Daily Hampshire Gazette reported.
The town, which is located some 90 miles from Boston and has a population of just under 38,000, has yet to decide how a person would become eligible for the reparation fund,
A liberal arts college in Massachusetts has warned its students and faculty against using 'violent language'—even banning the phrase 'trigger warning' for its association with guns. Brandeis University in Waltham has created an anti-violence resource called the Prevention, Advocacy & Resource Center which provides information and advice to students and staff.(Snip) The college claims that 'picnic is often associated with lynchings of black people in the United States, during which white spectators were said to have watched while eating, referring to them as picnics or other terms involving racial slurs against black people.'
Picnic is derived from the French 'pique-nique,'

The Salvation Army — best known for its red kettle donation stands at Christmas—has released a racial reconciliation curriculum urging its members to apologize for past racial sins. In “Let’s Talk About Racism,” the evangelical organization declares: “[A]s we engage in conversations about race and racism, we must keep in mind that sincere repentance and apologies are necessary if we want to move towards racial reconciliation … Perhaps you don’t feel as if you personally have done anything wrong, but you can spend time repenting on behalf of the Church and asking for God to open hearts and minds to the issue of racism.”
Major League Baseball (MLB) chose the wokes over their fans when they relocated the All-Star Game from Atlanta to Denver. And, it appears, the fans are letting their feelings be known. The television ratings for Sunday Night Baseball, MLB’s flagship primetime offering and ESPN’s premier weekend evening broadcast, have sunk 49 percent from last year. According to Sports Media Watch: A 7-inning Cardinals-Braves Sunday Night Baseball game averaged just 931,000 viewers on ESPN over the weekend, down 49% from the comparable window in 2019 (Cubs-Dodgers: 1.84M) and the least-watched Sunday night game this season.

With murder rates skyrocketing in major American cities, Joe Biden announced his “gun crime prevention strategy.” Because Democrats are opposed to punishments for crime, Biden was reduced to maligning the Second Amendment. Thankfully, he lacks the authority to grab our guns, but he managed a few chilling statements. (snip) His problem is that the cities with the worst violent crime already have gun-grabbing laws.
Biden fell back on the old Chicago standby, saying that the illegal guns used to commit crimes in Democrat cities are smuggled in from states with lax gun laws (snip) What Biden failed to explain is why those gun-supplying states don’t also have out-of-control gun crime.
The Florida apartment building that partially collapsed on Thursday had been reportedly sinking for decades — and was undergoing a structural inspection, according to officials and a research study.
The 12-story beachfront condo in Miami-Dade County was built in 1981 — and had been sinking into the ground since the 1990s, according to a 2020 study conducted by Shimon Wdowinski, a professor at Florida International University.
“I looked at it this morning and said, ‘Oh my god.’ We did detect that,” Wdowinski told USA Today on Thursday.
Wdowinski’s research focused on which parts of Miami were sinking,
President Biden on Thursday repeatedly whispered to reporters during an impromptu press conference at the White House—drawing bemused social media speculation and jokes about the “really creepy” exchanges. On three separate occasions, Biden hunched over his lectern in the White House East Room and forcefully whispered to reporters.(Snip)The bizarre presidential performance drew significant feedback. “This is nuts,” wrote Republican strategist Matt Whitlock, who tweeted a compilation reel. Abigail Marone, press secretary to Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) tweeted, “The Biden lean in and long whisper into the mic was very very bizarre.” Podcaster Chase Geiser captioned the clip: “BIDEN: Should I do the whisper thing?
General Milley of the Joint Chiefs of Staff turned in a performance that was part gaslighting and part humiliating theater.
It's hard to imagine how his part in the hearing could have gone any worse than defending the imposition of critical race theory by arguing, “I’ve read Mao Zedong. I’ve read Karl Marx. I’ve read Lenin. That doesn’t make me a communist.”
The military does not, as of yet, conduct Communist indoctrination sessions. And while officers might have read Mao and Lenin, they weren't being told to read it because it was "on the right side of history".
As I said, yet. At the rate we're going it may only be a
