Paris—Some 160,000 people, including far-right activists and members of France‘s yellow vest movement, protested Saturday across the country against a bill requiring everyone to have a special virus pass to enter restaurants and mandating COVID-19 vaccinations for all health care workers. Similar protests were held in neighboring Italy. Police fired water cannons and tear gas on rowdy protesters in Paris, although most gatherings were orderly.(Snip) They were upset over a French “health pass” that is now required to enter museums, movie theaters and tourist sites. The bill under debate would expand the pass requirement to all restaurants and bars in France and some other venues.

Comments:

Most certainly, they were far right-wing radicals, which means they are Bad People. Probably spurred on by Russian trolls too, also of the far right as far as the AP is concerned.

I had a discussion this afternoon with some friends. One commented "Those SOBs will be ordering masks again soon enough." My comment was, "I am done wearing a mask. Hard stop." "Well, what are you going to do when they tell you to wear one." "I'll say, "NO, not doing it.' I don't think that it will go very far because I won't be the only one." Another friend chimed it. "You're not the first person I have heard that from. People are about done with masks." Yep. Just say NO.

A California man who mocked COVID-19 vaccines has died after becoming infected with the virus. Stephen Harmon, 34, died on Wednesday at Corona Regional Medical Center, about an hour east of Los Angeles. Prior to his hospitalization, Harmon shared a series of jokes on social media about vaccines. “I got 99 problems but a vax ain’t one,” he wrote in June on Twitter. In another tweet the same month, he made fun of the Biden administration’s outreach efforts to push vaccines. “Biden’s door to door vaccine ‘surveyors’ really should be called JaCovid Witnesses. #keepmovingdork,” he wrote.

Dr. Anthony Fauci on Sunday defended the US giving hundreds of thousands of dollars for research at a Wuhan lab studying whether bat coronaviruses could be transmitted to humans—saying that it would have been “negligent” not to do so. “It was a… proposal that was peer-reviewed and given a very high rating for the importance of why it should be done,” Fauci told CNN anchor Jake Tapper on “State of the Union.” “[The proposal was] to be able to go and do a survey of what was going on among the bat population because everyone in the world was trying to figure out what the original source

Joe Biden's administration has spent at least $2 billion on suspending border wall construction, a new report from Republicans on a subcommittee on the border revealed. Amid a continuing migration crisis at the southern border, the administration is pumping around $3 million every day into stopping building of the wall, according to the minority report for the Senate subcommittee on Government Operations and Border Management under the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. The costly per day amount is reportedly going to contractors to guard all the materials–like steel and concrete–that are lying around in the desert for the project.

Joe Biden used various private email addresses from which he would sometimes send, receive and forward government correspondence according to emails found on Hunter Biden's laptop. The concerns over the use of a private e-mail server could represent a conflict of interest and the services are also more prone to hacking than secured government accounts. Biden is said to have used various pseudonyms including 'Robin Ware,' 'Robert L. Peters' and 'JRB ware'. For at least four weeks in 2016, a worker in the Office of the Vice President, John Flynn, would send Biden his daily schedule to his private email address, Robert.L.Peters@pci.gov while copying Hunter according to Fox News.

They’re a little slice of Europe in the Big Apple, or noise-generating rat traps ruining the quality of life for neighbors.

Opponents say they have had their fill.(Snip)The association is part of a coalition called CUEUP which opposes making the Open Restaurants program permanent, saying it is handing over public streets and sidewalks to the hospitality industry.

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.

Fauci, who serves as President Joe Biden’s chief medical adviser, added, “If we don’t vaccinate people, the model is going to predict that we’re going to be in trouble as we continue to get more and more cases.”

A lifelong baseball fan, I abandoned the game this year after MLB sided with the Democratic Party in its campaign against ballot integrity in Georgia. It wasn’t just that: my home town team has put a “Black Lives Matter” sign and a memorial to George Floyd in right field. If I can’t escape politics at a baseball game, I’d rather go somewhere else. For the first time in decades, I haven’t seen a major league baseball game this year. Not only that, I haven’t watched or listened to a single pitch on radio or television. Then there is football. Commissioner Roger Goodell is driving the sport in a “woke” direction.

Masks are also "strongly encouraged" for groups when outdoors.
