Illegal immigrants exempt from DOJ’s
vaccine mandate at deportation hearings
Posted By: Ribicon, 10/20/2021 6:25:31 PM
The federal vaccine mandate will soon apply to Justice Department employees, contractors and visitors to its buildings, but one group it won’t apply to is illegal immigrants showing up for their deportation case hearings. The migrants are deemed an exception to President Biden‘s mandates because they are seeking a public benefit or service. That means they will not have to prove they’ve been vaccinated or show a negative COVID-19 test from the previous three days. Their attorneys are also exempt. Those exemptions aren’t sitting well with immigration judges and other employees who will have to interact with the unvaccinated. They say allowing in unvaccinated and untested people defeats the purpose

Washington—The Biden administration has approved a significant and permanent increase in the levels of food stamp assistance available to needy families—the largest single increase in the program’s history. Families in October have seen the average benefits for food stamps (officially known as the SNAP program) rise more than 25 percent above pre-pandemic levels. The increased assistance is indefinite to all 42 million SNAP beneficiaries. The aid boost was first reported by The New York Times and the details were confirmed by a spokeswoman for the Department of Agriculture. They were formally announced by Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack. The aid boost is being packaged as a major revision
Boris Johnson last night piled pressure on his scientific advisers to cut the waiting time for booster jabs from six months to five.
If a decision is made immediately, nearly 9 million more Britons will become eligible for a third dose of the vaccine. Concern has been growing that the rollout of the Covid booster scheme has been far too slow, putting the public at risk as cases rise. At present, over-50s and those with health problems are invited for their jab six months after their second dose. Former health secretary Jeremy Hunt yesterday called on ministers to cut the waiting time to five months.
President Biden accelerated the regulatory state on his first day in office by ordering agencies to consider aspirational but vaguely defined goals and benefits when imposing new rules on businesses large and small. The order greenlighting regulations even when the benefits “are difficult or impossible to quantify” sent shudders down the spines of CEOs. They fear business growth will be smothered in pursuit of vague objectives such as “human dignity” and “the interests of future generations.” “It is the most aggressive thing I’ve ever seen by an administration,” said Doug Holtz-Eakin, president of the American Action Forum, a right-leaning economic think tank. “It’s one thing to put out
China carried out a second test of what is believed to be a hypersonic orbital missile capable of carrying a nuclear warhead earlier this year, intelligence sources have claimed. The new test is believed to have taken place on August 13 and involved a similar 'hypersonic glide vehicle' to one launched into space on board a Long March rocket back in July, which was first reported earlier this week. Beijing has acknowledged one of the tests, claiming it launched a 'peaceful' civilian spacecraft. But analysts believe the craft can actually be tipped with a nuclear warhead which would be able to evade missile defences. Even government scientists are struggling

Cops are hunting for a drunken duo who kicked and punched a Jewish man outside a Brooklyn nightclub while spewing anti-Semitic hate, cops said Saturday. The victim was outside the Set Lounge on McDonald Ave. near Dahill Road in Mapleton at 2:30 a.m. on Aug. 28 when the two men, who appeared intoxicated and unsteady on their feet, learned he was Jewish, police sources said. “[Expletive] Jews! Jews shouldn’t exist!” one of the two men screamed, sparking an argument. “Islam faith is the most purest!” The two men then attacked the victim, kicking and punching him to the ground before storming off. The victim suffered cuts and bruises
The US State Department was widely mocked on social media Wednesday after tweeting about “International Pronouns Day” and sharing a link to an article that detailed why many people on social media share their pronouns to help others avoid “accidentally assuming an incorrect gender based on a name or an appearance.” “Today on International Pronouns Day, we share why many people list pronouns on their email and social media profiles. Read more here on @ShareAmerica,” the department’s official Twitter account posted, linking to a July blog post by Share America. Critics took to social media to mock the post, with many accusing the department of prioritizing “International Pronouns Day”
Pfizer-BioNTech released data on Thursday showing a booster dose of their COVID-19 vaccine is highly effective against the virus, including the Delta variant. Initial results from a Phase III trial of more than 10,000 participants aged 16 and older showed booster efficacy of 95.6 percent. The study also found that the booster shot was found to be safe with no safety concerns or severe adverse events reported. Pfizer had said its two-shot vaccine's efficacy drops over time, citing a study that showed 84 percent effectiveness four months later after a peak of 96 percent-and said this is evidence that a booster is needed to sustain protection
Air fares are set to soar just in time for the holiday season, as jet fuel pries rise to pre-pandemic levels, the United Airlines CEO warned on Wednesday. Jet fuel prices are already up more than 100 percent compared to just one year ago, CNBC reports, with the price per gallon set at $2.3282 on Tuesday. But Scott Kirby, the CEO of United Airlines, said that the prices may go up even further. 'Ultimately, we'll pass that through.'(Snip)But United was able to post a $473 million profit for the third quarter, which ended at the end of September, thanks to $1.1 billion it received in federal aid.
Kelly Dodd “regrets” getting the COVID-19 vaccine because she “already had the antibodies” and thinks that means she is “unlikely to get COVID again,” she exclusively explained to Page Six. “The Real Housewives of Orange County” alum tweeted on Tuesday, “I got the vaccine… And regret it.(Snip)The statement continued, “Now I personally know of at least two otherwise healthy people who died of blood clots after getting the vaccine and three others who developed Bells Palsy. Another friend of mine who was fine before she got jabbed got Myocarditis and almost died and is still really suffering and she only got the vax because her employer required it.”
President Biden on Wednesday repeated a story about being congratulated by an Amtrak conductor for traveling more than 2 million miles by rail even though the train employee was dead at the time the event supposedly took place. The president recalled the encounter with Angelo Negri on Wednesday during an appearance touting his ‘Build Back Better’ infrastructure plan in his native hometown of Scranton, Pennsylvania. He claimed it had happened in the seventh year of his vice presidency—2015—even though Negri retired from Amtrak in 1993, and died in 2014.(Snip)‘Joey, baby!’ the president recalled Negri telling him. ‘I thought the Secret Service was going to shoot him.’

GOP Rep. Jim Banks hit back after Rachel Levine became the nation's first transgender four-star admiral, calling her a 'man' and a disappointment for 'little girls.' The Indiana Republican's remarks drew pushback. Levine, a Biden appointee, was sworn in as head of US Public Health Service Commissioned Corps, which made her the nation's highest-ranking transgender official.(Snip)'The title of first female four-star official gets taken by a man,' Banks tweeted in response to the news. 'Calling someone that was born and lived as a man for 54 years the first 'female' four-star officer is an insult to every little girl who dreams of breaking glass ceilings

Nearly three months after revealing that her youngest child is transgender, Jamie Lee Curtis sat down for an interview with her daughter Ruby about the 25-year-old’s transition and journey to self-acceptance. The “Halloween” star, 62, admitted on Wednesday that “learning new terminology and words” has been a challenge at times, but she is determined to put in the work for Ruby.
“It’s speaking a new language,” she told People. “I am new at it. I am not someone who is pretending to know much about it. And I’m going to blow it, I’m going to make mistakes. I would like to try to avoid making big mistakes.”
The Biden administration’s Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) on Tuesday publicly announced that Rachel Levine, the transgender assistant secretary of health for HHS, had been named the nation’s first openly transgender four-star officer across any of the eight uniformed services of the United States. According to the press release, this makes Levine, a biological male, the “highest ranking official in the USPHS Commissioned Corps and its first-ever female four-star admiral.”
Some of them do admit that — when they’re cornered. I’m thinking of Dan Crenshaw being confronted by an election truther at a fundraiser in August and telling the guy that he was kidding himself if he believed there was such widespread fraud that it flipped the result in multiple states. There’s a cohort of hardcore populists within the House GOP whose loyalty to Trump is such that they’ll eagerly parrot any conspiracy theory he likes but most GOP reps who are asked about this tend to mumble something noncommittal about “election integrity” and “unanswered questions” before changing the subject.
Fox’s Neil Cavuto off air after contracting

Covid; vaccinated host heavily immunocompromised 37 replies
Fox News host Neil Cavuto, 63, has contracted a breakthrough case of the coronavirus despite reportedly being heavily immunocompromised, raising concerns over his health given the recent passing from COVID of Colin Powell, 84, who too had been vaccinated and immunocompromised.
Cavuto, who hosts shows on both Fox News Channel and Fox Business Network, remains optimistic over his fate nevertheless. In a statement issued to the media Tuesday, he touted his decision to get vaccinated as surefire proof that “I’m surviving this.”“While I’m somewhat stunned by this news, doctors tell me I’m lucky as well. Had I not been vaccinated, and with all my medical issues,
Human remains have been found in the hunt for fugitive Brian Laundrie, the 23-year-old fiancé of murdered Gabby Petito, five weeks after he went on the run in an alligator-infested Florida swamp and on the day his parents joined investigators in the nature reserve together for the first time.The grim discovery was made on Wednesday afternoon in the Carlton reserve in Florida, near Laundrie's home, along with a backpack and notebook. Until Tuesday, the reserve had been sealed off to the public while investigators searched for any sign of him. It reopened on Tuesday and on Wednesday morning, Laundrie's mother and father, Roberta and Chris, joined the search
Because we write a lot about Critical Race Theory, on who supports it and who is against is as well as the dangers of implementing it in public school classrooms, we sometimes get questions along the lines of “what is the best way to explain CRT in a short, sweet, and simple way that would make sense to people who don’t understand the argument in order to help them be more aware of what’s going on?”Opinions, of course, vary on the best way to go about it. I’m one who likes to try to keep things as simple as possible when explaining my viewpoint to a person.
In the midst of the ongoing border crisis, Republican Texas Sen. Ted Cruz filed legislation on Tuesday that would establish processing centers for illegal immigrants in areas such as Martha’s Vineyard and other Democrat-led communities.Earlier this month, Cruz said: “For the past ten months, President Biden and his administration have willingly surrendered the United States’ southern border to dangerous criminal cartels, with no thought given to the South Texas border communities like McAllen and Del Rio, which are running low on resources from dealing with this massive influx of illegal immigrants,”

Democracy Last Night With Stacey Abrams

Failed 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton has a new book she’s promoting called “State of Terror,” and last night she appeared on a Zoom event alongside novelist Louise Penny, who she teamed up with for the book, and another failed Democratic nominee – Stacey Abrams, who lost her bid to be Georgia’s governor in 2018 in a race she has still to this day refused to concede.Abrams was the moderator of the Zoom call, as it turns out, and at one point apparently feeling like she was connecting with a kindred spirit, Clinton proclaimed as Abrams often has that she felt Abrams “actually won” that 2018 race
Americans are pointing a finger at President Joe Biden's policies when asked what's responsible for the rising inflation. A Politico/Morning Consult poll released Wednesday found that 62 per cent of registered voters assigned a lot or some blame to the Biden administration when asked who was responsible for the 13-year high. Broken down, 40 per cent of those surveyed said the Biden administration's policies were very responsible, while another 22 per cent said the policies were somewhat responsible.

There are significant police-related differences between men and women. And it is likely in our best interest as police officers to capitalize on the differences and use them to our advantage.
From what I have read, there appear to be significant police-related differences between men and women.
And it is likely in our best interest as police officers to capitalize on the differences and use them to our advantage. While on the other side, if the differences cause challenges, change our method of training to accommodate the differences.
A video that we’ve received today shows why male and female cops should work together!
LOS ANGELES - Southern California's Los Angeles and Long Beach ports handle the most ocean cargo of any ports in the United States, but are some of the least efficient in the world, according to a ranking by the World Bank and IHS Markit. In a review of 351 container ports around the globe, Los Angeles was ranked 328, behind Tanzania's Dar es Salaam and Alaska's Dutch Harbor. The adjacent port of Long Beach came in even lower, at 333, behind Turkey's Nemrut Bay and Kenya's Mombasa, the groups said in their inaugural Container Port Performance Index published in May. The

The vaccinated fear the unvaccinated. Not much of a vaccine then, is it. Also, reading between the lines ("The migrants are deemed an exception to President Biden‘s mandates because they are seeking a public benefit or service"), it seems that the Welfare Brigade is likewise exempt from shot mandates, once again granting them and illegal aliens a superset of civil rights.
