A 28-year-old man in Alabama who believed COVID-19 was a “hoax” has died from the virus—and now his family is urging people to get the vaccine. Curt Carpenter lost his battle with the bug after spending 51 days in the intensive care unit at Grandview Medical Center in Birmingham, the Montgomery Advertiser reported. “I know that if Curt had survived, he would have made sure everyone knew how serious this disease is, and how important the vaccine is,” his mom, Christy Carpenter, told the newspaper.(Snip) “This is becoming a pandemic of the unvaccinated,” Walensky said earlier this month.

The governor of Texas has issued an urgent appeal for medical staff to come and assist with surging COVID cases—even as he resists calls to reinstate a mask mandate. Greg Abbott, the Republican leader of the state, made his cry for help as the rolling two-week daily average of new COVID-19 cases in his state has increased by 165 per cent to 8,533, according to Johns Hopkins University research data.(Snip)Abbott later added: 'The State of Texas is taking action to combat the recent rise in COVID-19 cases and ensure that our hospitals and communities have the resources and support they need to mitigate
Country singer Clare Dunn has tearfully revealed how a rideshare driver yanked her from the car and violently threw her face-first into the ground—with the driver busted early Tuesday, online records show. “This has been hell,” the “Get Out” singer tearfully told People magazine, sharing a photo of her bloodied and bruised face from the June 26 attack in Tennessee.(Snip)
The driver then got increasingly agitated as the 34-year-old singer asked him to take a slower route avoiding highways, and then pointed out that he had missed her turn, she recalled to People. “He was screaming at me,” Dunn recalled.
French politicians reacted with fury today after a Rwandan refugee allegedly murdered a Roman Catholic priest who was giving him shelter while on bail for alleged arson. Emmanuel Abayisenga, 40, reportedly confessed to the killing of 60-year-old Father Olivier Maire in Saint-Laurent-sur-Sèvre earlier this morning. The Rwandan was awaiting trial for setting fire to Nantes Cathedral last year, and had been taken in by Father Maire's community while on bail and under judicial control.(Snip)Marine Le Pen, the leader of France's Far-Right National Rally, said: 'An illegal immigrant' can 'set fire to a Cathedral, not be expelled and then reoffend by murdering

Barack Obama, former president, just spent his 60th birthday with friends, family and fawning celebrity types at a bash on Martha’s Vineyard. Not unexpected. And according to reports, he grooved to the song “Birthday [Expletive]” performed live by guest Trap Beckham. A bit unexpected. This is, after all, a former president, a former leader of the free world. A former dignified member of the elitist of all elitist circles.(Snip)Among the lyrics: “One time for the birthday [expletive]. Two times for the birthday [expletive]. Three times for the birthday [expletive]. [Expletive] it up if it’s your birthday [expletive].” The next four lines repeat the f-bomb line.
Columbia, S.C.–South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster on Monday continued to urge people to get the COVID-19 vaccine, but also repeated that whether students wear masks in class should be solely up to parents in a state where less than half the residents are fully vaccinated.(Snip)The General Assembly passed another budget provision in June banning school districts from requiring students and teachers to wear masks. McMaster on Monday repeated the line he has used since the spring that parents should be the ones who decide whether their children wear masks at least six times in the 15-minute news conference carried live on local television.
Earth is getting so hot that temperatures in about a decade will probably blow past a level of warming that world leaders have sought to prevent, according to a report released Monday that the United Nations called a “code red for humanity.” “It’s just guaranteed that it’s going to get worse,” said report co-author Linda Mearns, a senior climate scientist at the U.S. National Center for Atmospheric Research. “Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide.”(Snip)The authoritative Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report, which calls climate change clearly human-caused and “unequivocal,” makes more precise and warmer forecasts for the 21st century than it did last time
A 22-year-old freelance photographer was brutally attacked and beaten by a stranger while on vacation in Seattle. The victim, who goes by Caliber Visuals on social media, is still spitting up blood and getting severe headaches days later, he said. The attack was caught on graphic surveillance video, and shows Caliber approached by a man in an orange shirt and black pants. The two seem to shake hands, but the suspect doesn’t let go and throws Caliber to the ground. The suspect repeatedly kicks and stomps on Caliber’s head before knocking him unconscious. The suspect goes through Caliber’s pockets, taking his money and personal belongings
Professional bodybuilder John Meadows died “unexpectedly” and “peacefully” at home on Sunday at 49 years old, according to a Facebook post by his wife.
“Dear Friends & Family,” the post signed by Brooke Nappo, who issued the statement for Meadows’ wife, said. “This morning John passed away unexpectedly and peacefully in their home.

Elderly people will likely need booster shots for COVID vaccines, the nation’s top infectious disease expert said Sunday. The level of protection vaccines provide against the virus goes down over time, Dr. Anthony Fauci explained, citing the Pfizer drug as an example. The Pfizer vaccine starts out about 90% effective against COVID, he said, going down to about 84% several months afterwards. Effectiveness of the Moderna vaccine has not yet been shown to decrease, he added, but Fauci expects that to happen eventually. “Sooner or later, you’re going to see an attenuation to the point where we’re going to have to give an additional boost to people,
Miami Dolphins tight end Adam Shaheen insisted he will not let the NFL 'strong-arm' him into getting a COVID-19 vaccine and accused the league of 'taking away freedoms' by making unvaccinated players take extra precautions. 'For me, it's a personal choice, and it's bigger than just COVID,' Shaheen told reporters after practice on Saturday.(Snip)Shaheen, 26, came off the COVID-19 list Thursday after being placed on it due to being in close contact with tight ends coach George Godsey, who tested positive last weekend despite being vaccinated. 'But they're not going to strong-arm me into getting it.
Barack Obama's birthday celebrations continued for a third day on Sunday, with the former president enjoying brunch at a seafront restaurant in Martha's Vineyard. In a sky blue linen shirt and sunglasses, the birthday boy capped off a weekend packed with parties. He and his guests dined beneath a specially-erected marquee, set beside the water.(Snip)Earlier in the week it was reported how guests would be able to dine on a fully meatless menu, featuring popular vegan brands like Impossible Foods and Eat Just. From images posted on Saturday evening, it is likely that the 'meatless menu' was one of a number of options.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said in a new clip released Monday that she feared rioters would rape as well as kill her when they stormed the Capitol on January 6th. 'You didn't only think you were going to die, you thought you were going to be raped?' CNN host Dana Bash asked.'Yeah, I thought I was,' Ocasio-Cortez answered nodding. 'White supremacy and patriarchy are very linked in a lot of ways,' the progressive Democrat said when recalling that day. 'There's a lot of sexualizing of that violence and I didn't think that I was just going to be killed, I thought other things were
After denouncing the Trump administration for banning travel from China in 2020, during the early days of the pandemic, on Monday, CNN’s New Day actually promoted the notion of somehow imposing a travel ban on the state of Florida over a recent rise in COVID cases there. Without a sense of irony, the show hyped the notion that travel from the Sunshine State would have already been banned if it were a foreign country.“Now, one out of every five people hospitalized in this country is in Florida right now....One Florida doctor says children’s hospitals in the state are overwhelmed while Republican Governor Ron DeSantis resists calls to require masks
Republican Sen. Tim Scott boarded a plane to Hawaii earlier this year to meet with one of the richest people in the world: Tech titan Larry Ellison.Ellison’s remote Lanai Island home was well out of the South Carolina senator’s way. But for Scott, who like the 76-year-old Ellison is an outspoken advocate for school choice, cultivating the mogul has paid dividends — and could even help propel a 2024 presidential bid. Since last October, Ellison has contributed $10 million to an outside group aligned with the senator — a huge sum even in the super PAC era and the business owner’s biggest known contribution in three decades
“You always know the mark of a coward. A coward hides behind freedom. A brave person stands in front of freedom and defends it for others.” -Henry Rollins
We all know that the Democrats fight dirty; always have, always will. The Republicans on the other hand just sit back and let them lie, cheat and steal as if it would be rude to call them out for their crimes. They seem to delight in being known as the polite party. As a result, the left is plowing them under with glee. They impeached President Trump twice over nothing, less than nothing.

Just Don’t Call Her Nice.”The photo was taken by famed fashion photographer Annie Leibovitz.

Census Bureau statisticians and outside experts are trying to unravel a mystery: Why were so many questions about households in the 2020 census left unanswered?

Another in a series of articles about vaccine skeptics who died, framed as if they paid the piper. On the other hand, articles are rare indeed about cases where loudly pro-vaccine people have died or suffered horrible side effects after taking the gene therapy, and even articles generally describing these things are discredited as misinformation. Weird, eh?
