The Pentagon recently revised its rules that will make it easier for political appointees and congressional staffers to gain access to the Defense Department’s most secret programs, raising concerns among security officials that secrets will be compromised.
Deputy Defense Secretary Kathleen Hicks issued a memorandum to senior Pentagon officials Sept. 20 stating that filling out a counterintelligence questionnaire is no longer required for gaining access to Pentagon special access programs, known as SAPs, that are the most secret activities and programs within the department.
The eased rules specifically allow Senate-confirmed political appointees, members of the House and Senate, the professional staff of the congressional defense and intelligence oversight committees
A TV watchdog group is calling on Netflix to remove “Big Mouth,” saying the animated series provides troubling depictions of sexualized children. In a detailed report, the Los Angeles-based Parents Television and Media Council (PTC) hits the cartoon for depicting fully nude children and their genitalia as they go through puberty. “It’s animated, but I cannot fathom a scenario in which we should be comfortable with even an animated depiction of a 13-year-old’s private parts,” Melissa Hensen, author of the study, told The Washington Times. “It cannot be helpful for our society to encourage adult viewers to be looking at children in this way.”
A teacher in Washington state says she was forced to take down the pro-police flag she hung in her classroom to honor her brother, over claims that it was 'too political.'(Snip)He said his sister, who has not been named, hung the Thin Blue Line flag on her bulletin board to support him, a former police officer with the Marysville Police Department who served as a resource officer during the fatal Marysville-Pilchuck High School shooting in 2014.

A top police union says “dozens” of Massachusetts troopers will resign after a judge denied its bid to delay the COVID-19 vaccine mandate imposed by Republican Gov. Charlie Baker. The State Police Association of Massachusetts said the troopers plan to seek employment at departments with “reasonable alternatives” such as mask-wearing or regular testing. The union is disappointed by a judge’s ruling last week that refused to delay Mr. Baker’s mandate, which requires 42,000 state workers and contractors to get vaccinated or receive an exemption by Oct. 17. Those who don’t comply face termination.(Snip)“The state police are already critically short-staffed and acknowledged this
While visiting a tavern in Wisconsin, a masked Jim Smart noticed the bartender wasn't wearing a mask. He asked if she was vaccinated.
"She said no, 'I don't believe in the science.' I said, 'What about the people in the kitchen?' She went to ask and came back and said, 'They don't want to tell you,' " said Smart. "I said, screw that and left." Smart, a restaurant designer who lost friends and business to COVID-19, has "run out of patience" with people who refuse to get vaccinated. "I'm all for personal rights, but holy smokes," he said. "It's my life I'm trying to protect.
COVID-19 vaccine makers stand to make billions of dollars after US health officials approved booster shots for older and vulnerable Americans while manufacturers' stock prices continue to rise during the pandemic.(Snip)The forecast for Moderna's 2022 revenue has jumped 35 percent since President Joe Biden laid out his booster plan in mid-August, though Moderna booster shots are not yet approved. Morningstar analyst Karen Andersen expects boosters alone to bring in about $26 billion in global sales next year for Pfizer and BioNTech and around $14 billion for Moderna if they're endorsed for nearly all Americans.
Joplin, Mont.—Federal officials sent a team of investigators from the National Transportation Safety Board to the site of an Amtrak derailment in north-central Montana that killed three people and left seven hospitalized Sunday, officials said.

As many as nine in ten forecourts have run out of fuel with the rest set to run out quickly, experts have warned amid a weekend of chaos that saw an ambulance hit a car in a petrol queue and warnings from a minister that the haulier shortage could take years to fix. More petrol stations were forced to close today amid panic buying and the knock-on impact of the HGV crisis crippling the UK's transport industry.(Snip)Government officials have given the green light for plans to bring in 5,000 foreign lorry drivers to deal with the shortage—with the UK said to be 100,000 HGV drivers short,
Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla said Sunday that the U.S. should return to normal within the year as his COVID-19 booster was approved for the elderly and other higher risk communities. 'Finally, Moderna's CEO said this week that the pandemic is on course to be over in about a year. Do you agree with that?' ABC This Week host George Stephanapoulos asked Bourla on Sunday.
(Snip)He said that the most likely outcome is that people will need to continue to get coronavirus booster vaccines annually, similar to how people get the flu shot each year to protect against the most likely variant of the influenza virus that year.
Sir Keir Starmer today said a Labour MP was wrong to say that 'only women have a cervix'. Rosie Duffield, the MP for Canterbury, has opted to stay away from the Labour Party's annual conference in Brighton amid online threats from trans activists who view her remarks as discriminatory.
Sir Keir said this morning that 'it is something that shouldn't be said' and 'it is not right'.(Snip)We need to, I think, bear in mind that the trans community are amongst the most marginalised and abused communities and wherever we have got to on the law we need to go further and we want to go further on that.
New York state workers who are fired for refusing to get vaccinated are not eligible for unemployment insurance, Gov. Kathy Hochul said on Saturday—just two days before the deadline for workers to get the jab.
New York City teachers and state health care workers in hospitals and nursing homes have to prove that they received at least their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine by Monday. The only exception to the vaccine mandate is a valid, doctor-approved request for medical accommodation.(Snip)Hochul specifically referred to hospital workers, but New York City is bracing for a similar situation, with about 13 percent of roughly 78,000 teachers

House Democrats, in their ongoing quest to make it more difficult for Americans to possess firearms, managed to sneak a red flag provision into the latest iteration of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). The legislation was passed last week and is headed to the Senate. Bearing Arms’ Cam Edwards explained: The military version of the red flag law proposed by Democrats looks a lot like the civilian version found in more than a dozen states. Without being charged or even accused of a crime, a service member could have their right to possess a firearm taken away from them by a military court, and the subject of

Almost 100 percent of Americans need to be vaccinated before the country can safely return to normal, President Joe Biden claimed Monday.
Biden said that “97%, 98%” is the goal as a country during his much-publicized appointment to receive a COVID-19 booster shot Monday. He offered no explanation for the number. Medical experts, including Dr. Anthony Fauci, have predicted that herd immunity would only require 70% to 85% of Americans to be vaccinated.
Representative Maxine Waters (D-CA) said Sunday on MSNBC’s “Alex Witt Reports” that Haitians had not been treated “as human beings” and said it was because they are black.Waters said, “They should treat them like they are treating the Afghans. We’re bringing Afghans by the thousands into the country, and they deserve to be brought in because they assisted us in the war. That’s how they should be treating the Haitians, bringing in those who are eligible, vaccinating and making sure that we’re not simply trying to drive them back with our border patrol on horses, with their reins, looking at if they’re beating them.”Witt asked, those coming into our country.

MSNBC host Tiffany Cross argued Saturday that white women should be held responsible for laws restricting access to abortion.
During a regular segment on her show titled “Make It Make Sense,” Cross argued that white women who voted for Republicans were responsible at least in part for laws that limited abortion access like Texas’ recent heartbeat bill. Cross began the segment with a video question submitted by a fan who asked, “My question is, do these people that are making these laws understand what they have done to generations of people?”
What’s going on in Australia may be the most disturbing story of the year. A once, somewhat flourishing democracy has been reduced to a tyrannical medical state in which people are violently abused by government authorities for daring to walk outside. All in the name of fighting COVID-19, of course.
Unfortunately for those that live Down Under, there is no end in sight, and the scenes are only growing darker. Both of those videos purport to show people being violently assaulted by police for the sin of not wearing a mask outdoors. The fact that masks are ineffective outside
Individuals who have not received the coronavirus vaccine “aren’t listening to God,” New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) declared during remarks before Brooklyn’s Christian Cultural Center on Sunday.

He made the smartest men and women, the scientists, the doctors, the researchers – he made them come up with a vaccine. That is from God to us and we must say, thank you, God. Thank you. And I wear my ‘vaccinated’ necklace all the time
Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas hit the Sunday shows today, trying to smooth over a very bad week for the Biden administration when it comes to the border.
Mayorkas was trying to deal with a lot of fall-out. The Biden Administration finally caught a lot of flak — not only for having thousands of illegal aliens congregating under a bridge in Del Rio, Texas, immediately after crossing the border. But they got even more flak for the false story that the Border Patrol whipped migrants trying to enter, while on horseback. Despite the fact that the story was false, the Biden Administration seemed to embrace it
Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich argues it is time for the fight. AG Brnovich says “It’s high noon” in the State of Arizona due to the increasing threats on our Nation’s most precious document.

Heads with twisted minds are redefining our language and culture, to no good end. The folly is so commonplace now that a highly respected journal that's been in print for nearly 200 years took no issue with risking its reputation over it.
