Disney Cruise Line became the first major passenger ship to require proof of a COVID-19 vaccine for passengers as young as five, sparking fury among families who say they’ve canceled trips over the mandate. The entertainment giant quietly updated its vaccine requirements Wednesday, saying that guests aged five and older must be fully-vaccinated at the time of departure beginning January 13.(Snip)Fans began spamming Disney Cruise’s Facebook posts with comments of displeasure, with one mom sniping: ‘my son doesn’t need to be vaccinated and risk myocarditis or worse just for a cruise.’ Added another parent: ‘Canceled our cruise for 10. Not vaccinating the kids.’

The nation's top infectious disease expert says that COVID-19 hospitalizations are rising among people fully vaccinated who have not had booster shots. Dr Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said waning immunity from the initial shots is leading to a rise in severe cases among immunized Americans. 'What we're starting to see now is an uptick in hospitalizations among people who've been vaccinated but not boosted,' he told NBC News in an interview on Tuesday. 'It's a significant proportion, but not the majority by any means.' It comes as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reviews applications from both Pfizer-BioNTech
A laboratory worker in Pennsylvania found several vials labeled “smallpox” at a facility dedicated to vaccine research and development, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The worker who made the alarming discovery was cleaning out a freezer at the unnamed lab. He was wearing gloves and protective gear at the time. CDC officials on Wednesday said that there is “no indication that anyone has been exposed to the small number of frozen vials.” “CDC, its Administration partners, and law enforcement are investigating the matter and the vials’ contents appear intact,” the agency said in a statement “We will provide further details as they are available.”
President Biden said Thursday the government has purchased 10 million courses of a Pfizer pill to treat COVID-19 but argued that vaccination remains the nation’s “strongest tool” against the pandemic. Mr. Biden secured a portion of supply as the Food and Drug Administration decides whether to authorize the pills, which are taken with a low dose of ritonavir, an existing drug.
Trials showed patients who received the pills saw an 89% reduction in the risk of hospitalization or death compared to a placebo group.(Snip)The Biden administration and scientists say vaccines are preferable because they are much cheaper than innovative drugs and it is more efficient to try
San Francisco’s ‘woke’ District Attorney Chesa Boudin has finally charged a ‘prolific’ female shoplifter, 41, who stole $40,000 in merchandise from the same Target in 120 incidents over a one-year period. Aziza Graves was arrested Tuesday for her alleged shoplifting spree about two weeks after voters forced Boudin into a recall election, with a petition yielding 83,000 signatures—far above the 51,000 required by the city. The push to hold Graves responsible only came after Target demanded that Boudin launch an investigation, which revealed that the store, at the Stonestown Galleria shopping mall, was hit by the same person more than 100 times between October 2020 and November 2021.
The American Medical Association and dozens of health care groups urged large companies Thursday to begin implementing President Biden’s vaccinate-or-test mandate voluntarily, saying the U.S. cannot afford to delay while the regulation is fought in the courts.
The health care groups said coronavirus clusters have been traced to offices, retail and food settings and that broader vaccination is needed to stave off a winter COVID-19 spike.(Snip)The AMA and allies say businesses should adopt the policy on their own as cases rise and the drop in hospitalizations flat-lines on the cusp of the holiday shopping and travel season. The U.S. vaccination rate is stuck below 60%.
A career criminal and convicted felon with an open domestic violence charge has claimed to be the unidentified male at whom Kyle Rittenhouse shot twice at close range but missed, on the night of August 25, 2020. Rittenhouse has been charged with First Degree Recklessly Endangering Safety of the man known in trial only as 'jump-kick man,' for the flying kick he took at the teenager's head as Rittenhouse was attacked minutes after he shot Joseph Rosenbaum dead. Now Maurice Freeland, 39, has admitted that he was the one who kicked Rittenhouse in the head and narrowly avoided being shot as a result, after the then 17-year-old stumbled

President Biden took a dig at his host after touring General Motors' factory in Detroit on Wednesday, cheekily suggesting chief executive Mary Barra was among the millionaires and billionaires who aren't paying enough tax.(Snip)In a speech to highlight his spending plans and how they would promote electric vehicles, he said anyone earning less than $400,000 a year would not pay more in tax—before taking a shot at the multinational companies incorporated in in his home state of Delaware. 'Guess what? They ain't paying enough,' he said, before adding, 'Sorry, Mary.' The line triggered laughter from his audience. Not only is GM one of the companies incorporated in Delaware,
Royal Navy submarines and special forces are in an underwater scramble against the Russians to recover a crashed £100million jet with top secret technology from the bottom of the Mediterranean.
An RAF pilot was forced to eject from his ditched F-35B Lightning as it ditched into the sea soon after taking off on 'routine exercise' from the Navy's flagship HMS Queen Elizabeth aircraft carrier.
By plunging into international waters, the crash triggered a race to find the next-generation jet from the sea bed before it could be reached by Russia. The operation, shrouded in secrecy, is understood to involve divers and miniature submarines. The aircraft was located
Two men found guilty in the 1965 assassination of Malcolm X in Harlem’s Audubon Ballroom have been cleared in a new investigation, and their convictions are expected to be thrown out Thursday, sources told the Daily News.

Alec Baldwin “intentionally” fired a gun toward cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the “Rust” movie set, disregarding set protocol in the deadly shooting, according to a 30-page lawsuit filed on Wednesday by the film’s script supervisor. Mamie Mitchell, the script supervisor on set when Baldwin shot and killed Hutchins and injured director Joel Souza on Oct. 21, is suing the actor, the movie production company and others for assault, intentional infliction of emotional distress and deliberate infliction of harm.(Snip)“Alec Baldwin intentionally, without just cause or excuse, cocked and fired and loaded gun even though the upcoming scene to be filmed did not call for the cocking and firing
The Biden administration is making billions of dollars available to drugmakers to scale up domestic production of COVID-19 vaccines in the hopes of building capacity to produce an additional 1 billion shots per year to share with the world. Money for the plan has been set aside from the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan that Congress passed in March. Under the new initiative, the Department of Health and Human Services' Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority is soliciting pharmaceutical companies that have demonstrated the ability to make the more-effective mRNA vaccines to bid for government investment in scaling up their manufacturing abilities.

Fox News Congressional reporter Chad Pergram reported Tuesday evening that he had been given a tip about Kamala Harris several weeks ago that said he should familiarize himself with the nomination process for a vice president in the House and the Senate. Pergram’s report comes after a bombshell CNN report Sunday that the White House was rife with rumors about Joe Biden contemplating nominating the flailing Harris to the Supreme Court to get her out of his administration and out of the line of succession. Jill Biden was asking about using the 25th Amendment to sideline Harris
It’s no secret that Americans are paying record prices at the gas pumps. (snip) So why now, of all times, is the Biden administration selling off America’s Strategic Petroleum Reserve (“SPR”) to Asia? As the name suggests, the SPR is America’s emergency backup supply of oil. (snip) Biden is now under pressure to tap the SPR to relieve some of the pressure on fuel prices. (snip) It turns out, though, that Biden is already tapping into the SPR; he’s just not doing it to help Americans. (snip) Biden is selling massive amounts of SPR oil...to Asia!
Is Joe Biden plotting with House Democrats to replace Kamala Harris?
Sure looks that way, given some curious goings-on reported by Fox News's straight-news congressional correspondent, Chad Pergram: (Snip for tweet) According to the Daily Mail's report on the matter, citing Fox News's Jesse Watters show, where Pergram appeared:
'Our Capitol Hill Correspondent Chad Pergram tells us he's been hearing whispers suggesting there could be some new high-profile confirmation hearings on the horizon in the House of Representatives,' said Watters during the segment.
America's recovery from the delta variant surge dropped the pace of new infections to under 500,000 per week in late October. Now cases are above 600,000 per week and are rising in 34 states, a USA TODAY analysis of Johns Hopkins University data shows. The numbers are not close to January, when weekly infections peaked at 1.7 million. But the recovery from one wave has reversed into another wave, more than six months after free, safe, effective vaccines became widely available to all adults. The United States is again reporting an average of more than 1 case every second. Unvaccinated
President Joe Biden's nominee to regulate banks stole hundreds of dollars of merchandise from a discount retail store, according to a police report revealed Wednesday.Saule Omarova, whom Biden tapped to serve as Comptroller of the Currency, was arrested after she was caught stuffing $214 worth of clothes, shoes, cologne, and belts in her purse at a T.J. Maxx in Madison, Wis., in May 1995. Omarova was 28 years old at the time and studying for her doctorate at the University of Wisconsin.Omarova is slated to appear before the Senate Banking Committee for her confirmation hearing Thursday.
President Joe Biden has become infamous both here at home and on the world stage for being gaffe-prone during public appearances where cringe-inducing moments are standard fare, including the times when Biden makes up stories out of whole cloth, utters extremely inappropriate comments that no one can explain, seems to forget what he’s supposed to say and/or forgets the names of world leaders as they’re listening to him speak.
In many instances, his handlers have had to step in and take over, aggressively herding the media away like cattle during a roundup, awkwardly upstaging the leader of the free world at a time when this country needs a confident leader
The refusal of a Virginia university to fire a transgender assistant professor who defended pedophiles and said they should be given child sex dolls has outraged students, alumni, politicians and the school's LGBTQ board, who say it is proof of a double standard that protects woke staff.
Allyn Walker, 34, is an assistant professor of sociology and criminal justice at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia. The non-binary teacher claimed in a recent interview to promote their new book that pedophiles shouldn't be ostracized, that they can't help who they are attracted to and that they should be given child-like sex dolls to satisfy their urges.

The second-ranking general in the US military has sounded the alarm about China’s weapons development — warning that Beijing may soon have the capability to launch a surprise nuclear strike against America.
“They look like a first-use weapon,” Gen. John Hyten, the vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told CBS News Tuesday. “That’s what those weapons look like to me.” (Snip) “From a technology perspective, it’s pretty impressive,” he said. “But Sputnik created a sense of urgency in the United States … The test on July 27 did not create that sense of urgency. I think it probably should create a sense of urgency.”

President Joe Biden on Tuesday placed a travel ban on government officials from Nicaragua from entering the U.S. following Daniel Ortega's victory in what the White House called a "sham" election.
In a presidential proclamation, Biden suspended travel for people who "formulate, implement, or benefit from policies or actions that undermine or injure democratic institutions or impede the return to democracy in Nicaragua."
Is Joe Biden plotting with House Democrats to replace Kamala Harris?
Sure looks that way, given some curious goings on reported by Fox News's straight-news congressional correspondent, Chad Pergram (snip) The Pergram report follows from another rumor just a day ago of a Biden plan to kick Harris upstairs:
Rumors have circulated that Biden may even be considering nominating Harris for a Supreme Court seat if one becomes vacant so that he can select a new Vice President. (snip) What's significant about that is that Joe has decades of friendships, alliances, and honor-among-thieves relationships throughout Congress. Harris, by contrast, has few allies, given her self-serving and ambitious nature.
