The US 5th District Court of Appeals blocked President Joe Biden's COVID-19 vaccine mandate after five states issued a joint petition against the order and 11 states filed lawsuits this week. The court, which has jurisdiction over Texas, Louisiana and parts of Mississippi, put a halt on the mandate and gave the Biden administration until Monday to respond. In their order, Judges Edith Jones, Stuart Kyle Duncan and Kurt Engelhardt wrote, 'Because the petitions give cause to believe there are grave statutory and constitutional issues with the Mandate, the Mandate is hereby STAYED pending further action by this court.' A stay is a legal term meaning
At least one person at the Travis Scott concert where eight people died Friday night was injected with something by an unknown, “needle” wielding assailant, and had to be revived with Narcan — a drug used to treat narcotic overdoses, Houston’s police chief said Saturday.Chief Troy Finner said the investigation into the mayhem at the Astroworld concert that also saw 300 injured “is now a criminal investigation that is going to involve our homicide division as well as narcotics.”The details of what happened to the security officer who was jabbed are not yet clear, Finner said.

At least eight people have died and hundreds more injured after thousands of revellers surged towards the stage at rapper Travis Scott's sold-out Astroworld Festival in Texas.
An estimated 50,000 people showed up for the two-day event which was cancelled last year due to Covid.

On Friday, GOP House Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene tweeted about her visit to the DC jail. What she reported was nothing short of devastating.During a 6-tweet thread, MTG said she had “never seen human suffering” like this in her life. The Biden regime apparently loves punishing their political prisoners. The Georgia rep went on to say that she and her staff are working on a full report to detail the horror that these patriots are suffering through.“Last night we toured the DC jail.

President Biden said the country 'took a monumental step forward' after the House passed the $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill with a vote of 228 to 206 on Friday night. The vote late on Friday night is a substantial triumph for Biden's Democrats, who have bickered for months over the ambitious spending bills that make up the bulk of his domestic agenda. Six Democrats, part of the progressive 'Squad' wing of the party, voted against it. The bill had become one of two key pieces of President Joe Biden's and it will now head to his desk for him to sign it into law.
What the he**? In the mad scramble to re-re-rewrite the huge “Build Back Better” social-spending bill and rush it to a vote, Speaker Nancy Pelosi inserted a huge tax cut for the rich.That’s right: The plan now is to raise the cap on state and local tax deductions for federal income taxes, otherwise known as SALT. The 2017 Trump reforms capped it at $10,000; Pelosi would raise that to $72,500 in 2021, then gradually to $80,000 over the next decade.Per the Tax Foundation, this means a tax cut for more than 70 percent of US households making over $200,000, with those earning over $500,000 reaping the most benefits.

“FDA advisory panel OKs Pfizer vaccine for children 5 to 11,” announced a recent NBC News headline.
How could a panel that is supposedly composed of rational clear-headed scientists make such an inexplicable recommendation?

I had to think long and hard before making this statement. It’s a decision that only I can make.

Special counsel John Durham’s indictment of Igor Danchenko, the principal source for the bogus Steele dossier used by the FBI as a basis for the Trump-Russia investigation, further illustrates that Durham has his sights set on the Clinton campaign.Danchenko has been charged with five counts of lying to the FBI in interviews during 2017, as the bureau struggled in futility to verify outlandish allegations that Donald Trump and his campaign were clandestine agents of the Kremlin. Those allegations were compiled in the so-called Steele dossier, which the FBI relied on in obtaining surveillance warrants from a secret federal court.The dossier was generated by the Clinton campaign.

The “penis doctor” community is playing hardball to promote vaccine awareness. Convincing the public to get the COVID vaccine has proven Sisyphean, but enterprising doctors may have formulated a foolproof reason why men should get the jab — so they can maintain their erections. Their potentially penis-propping PSA is currently going viral on YouTube. [snip] The clip then cuts to a panel of real-life doctors, who warn the nostalgic sex hounds that “men who have had COVID are six times more likely to develop erectile dysfunction.”
