Alabama Governor Kay Ivey (R) turned her ire toward unvaccinated people on Friday and blamed them for the rise in Covid cases.
Kay Ivey dehumanized unvaccinated people and put a target on their backs.
Ivey referred to vaccinated people as “regular folks” – so unvaccinated people are now “others” – this rhetoric is dangerous and must be denounced.
“Folks are supposed to have common sense. But it’s time to start blaming the unvaccinated folks, not the regular folks. It’s the unvaccinated folks that are letting us down,” Ivey told reporters in Birmingham.
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) on Thursday did not rule out booting Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) from the powerful Armed Services Committee amid a partisan brawl over who should serve on the special committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol attack.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) tapped Cheney, who has blamed Trump for inciting the Capitol insurrection, as her sole GOP pick for the special panel. But this week, McCarthy came under intense pressure by his rank-and-file members to strip Cheney of her Armed Services assignment after the Speaker rejected two of his five picks for the panel: Reps. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) and Jim Banks (R-Ind.), both Trump loyalists.
Eighteen states have enacted 30 new laws that make it harder to vote, according to a new tally by the liberal-leaning Brennan Center for Justice that tracks state activity through July 14.
Among the most common provisions, according to Brennan's researchers: Measures in seven states that either expand officials' ability to purge voters from the registration rolls or put voters at risk at having their names improperly removed. Those laws were enacted in Arizona, Iowa, Florida, Kentucky, Louisiana, Texas and Utah, the center found.

President Joe Biden participated Wednesday in the second CNN town hall of his presidency, taking questions from anchor Don Lemon and local residents in Cincinnati.
As he did at his February town hall, Biden made a number of false or misleading claims. We haven't been able to look into every single thing he said Wednesday night, but here is a rundown on some of his remarks.
Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is allegedly considering naming Ohio Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger to her special committee to investigate the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.
"We'll see," Pelosi said when asked by reporters Thursday if she planned on adding more Republicans to the committee, according to CNN. "I mean, there are some members that would like to be on it. We’ll see."
Joe Biden nominated anti-gun, anti-constitution nutbag David Chipman as Director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
In a recent interview David Chipman labeled gun-owners “Tiger Kings” who need to hide their guns behind their “tuna and beef jerky” in their cabinets. Then he added they only need to bring out their guns if the zombies start to appear.
The U.S. Constitution grants plenary power to the State Legislature to oversee elections and choose or withdraw their state’s electors.

A sixth member of the delegation of Texas Democrats in Washington, D.C. tested positive for Covid-19, a spokesperson told NBC News on Monday.
Cara Santucci, the spokeswoman for the Texas House Democrats confirmed the case and said the undisclosed member is self-isolating.
She initially said last week the delegation would provide daily rapid tests for its members and their staffers who are in the nation's Capitol. But in a Monday statement, she said the delegation will no longer release a daily Covid case count.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced Thursday she was appointing Republican Rep. Liz Cheney to the new select committee to investigate the January 6 attack on the US Capitol, placing one of former President Donald Trump’s most vocal House Republican critics on the panel likely to investigate his role in the lead-up to the insurrection.
White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said Monday that President Joe Biden is looking to build out half a million electric vehicle charging stations — focusing on “rural and disadvantaged communities” — as part of his $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill.
It should be noted that the average electric car costs around $55,600, and they are best utilized in cities.
Republican Sen. Susan Collins of Maine has received plenty of criticism from conservatives for siding with the left too often. However, her latest decision is one that will be welcomed by her Republican colleagues.
According to Fox News, Collins announced this week that she will not vote to confirm David Chipman, President Joe Biden’s nominee to lead the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms.

The 2020 Olympics officially got underway on Saturday with the first 11 of 339 gold medals, plus their silver and bronze siblings, meeting their new owners in Tokyo. For the first time in nearly a half-century of the Summer Olympics, none of those new owners were American. According to Olympic historian Bill Mallon, it was the first medal-less Day 1 for the United States since Munich in 1972. While a medal-less Day 1 isn't infrequent in the Winter Olympics for the U.S. — the same thing happened in 2018 at Pyeongchang — the only other time the United States didn't have a

Fifty-one percent of voters have at least a somewhat favorable opinion of Biden compared to 52 percent who have a somewhat favorable opinion of Trump. More people have an unfavorable view of Biden (48 percent) than Trump (46 percent).

As a mayoral candidate, Maya Wiley famously said she’s “been black all my life”—but that’s cold comfort to her failed campaign’s unpaid vendors, who are owed nearly $1 million, including a black-owned business that now has to lay off employees. “This could break my business,” the vendor told The Post, speaking this week on condition of anonymity because he signed a contract with the campaign that bars him from speaking to the media.(Snip)Prominent Democratic political consultant Hank Sheinkopf said the delinquencies run much deeper than bad P.R. “It doesn’t speak well of her management skills,” Sheinkopf told The Post. “If you can’t run your campaign

Ordered Nursing Homes to Accept
COVID-Positive Residents 19 replies
The U.S. Department of Justice has opted against investigating any of the Democrat governors who last year ordered nursing homes to accept residents who tested positive for COVID-19 against the recommendations of health groups. Federal officials reviewed information they received from New York, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and New Jersey last year regarding the orders. Based on the review, they’re not opening Civil Rights of Institutionalized Persons Act (CRIPA) investigations in the first three states, Joe Gaeta, deputy assistant attorney general, told Rep. Steve Scalise (R-La.) in a letter on Friday. The act enables the attorney general to launch a case in court against
This is the moment a vicious teen mob beats up a man walking his dog in a Queens park, disturbing new video shows. The sickening attack happened at around 9:55 p.m. Friday in Juniper Valley Park in Middle Village, according to police. At least 100 teens were hanging out in the park—drinking, smoking and playing loud music when the man was attacked, according to GOP mayoral candidate Curtis Sliwa, the founder of the Guardian Angels who was alerted to the incident by residents who he said are now asking his group to step up patrols there. The young mob can be seen closing in on the victim
On a regular day at work, Matt Teague and Forrest Kinney hop into a Durango Police Department patrol vehicle. The car is outfitted with the typical police gear – a dispatch radio, weapons, safety equipment – but also a teddy bear, bottled water and blankets.
Teague, a social worker, and Kinney, a police officer, focus on a unique approach to emergency response that combines mental health care with policing.
“The goal is treatment, mental health treatment, substance abuse treatment,” Teague said. “Sometimes, it’s as simple as getting assistance through Manna (soup kitchen) or housing assistance.”
Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs (D), who is running for governor, said Friday on CNN’s “Situation Room” that former President Donald Trump should “move on” and stop being a “sore loser.”
Guest-host Jim Acosta asked, “Former President Trump will be in Arizona this weekend to peddle his baseless conspiracy theories about voter fraud. His go-to excuse for losing the 2021 election…How dangerous is it for Donald Trump to be coming to your state tomorrow, do you think?”
Mitch McConnell has a long history of using dirty tricks to target grassroots Republicans who do not fit his view of the Senate.
Readers will long remember McConnell’s dirty and underhanded tricks in the 2014 Senate Race in Mississippi, when his DeceptiCons crew targeted candidate Chris McDaniel in order to protect a brutally senile McConnell ally, Senator Thad Cochran.(Snip)
Well, now it appears McConnell’s little Decepticon cronies are back at it with presumptive attacks against likely Georgia Senate candidate Hershel Walker. Mr. Walker is a well known sports icon and a strong supporter of President Trump. Walker is very much MAGA-minded, which makes him a target for the DeceptiCon establishment

On Monday, Monterey County district lawyer Jannin Pasioni updated the public about what happened before and after police officer Mario Reyes fired three rounds at Gerald Martinez. The office also released a deadly shooting drone footage included in this report.
That doesn’t mean tomorrow, former FDA commissioner Scott Gottlieb tells CNBC. The CDC hasn’t provided any modeling on the Delta wave yet, which Gottlieb finds odd, but other academic institutions have produced some models — and those suggest that the peak might come as soon as next month: “I think the bottom line is we’re going to see continued growth, at least in the next three to four weeks. There’s going to be a peak sometime probably around late August, early September,” Gottlieb said on “Squawk Box.” “I happen to believe that we’re further into this delta wave than we’re measuring so this may be over sooner than we think.
