Comedian Heather McDonald collapsed on stage at The Tempe Improv in Arizona on Saturday night. McDonald had just delivered her second joke of the evening before falling to the floor and requiring medical attention. The 51-year-old comedian shared updates with her fans to Instagram following the scary incident, which was initially reported by TMZ. McDonald's second joke of the show, which she headlined, poked fun at the unvaccinated and made light of the ongoing pandemic. 'I'm vaxxed, double vaxxed, boosted… and flu shot, and shingle shot, and haven't gotten COVID and Jesus loves me most,' she stated. Following the line's delivery, Heather collapsed to the floor and hit

Cruel Experiments Injecting Puppies with Cocaine 0 replies
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is facing a congressional probe after reports emerged alleging the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) spent millions of taxpayer dollars on a cruel experiment, injecting beagle puppies with cocaine. The non-profit watchdog organization White Coat Waste Project (WCW) reported on another cruel experiment allegedly funded by taxpayers. According to WCW’s findings, via a Freedom of Information Act [FOIA] request, “seven 6-month-old beagle puppies were trained to wear a jacket” which “served a cruel purpose: to inject the animal wearing it with drugs.” Puppies were then dosed with cocaine repeatedly “for months” with what WCW described as an “‘experimental compound,’
A woman was robbed at knifepoint as she waited for the train at an Uptown Manhattan subway stop during rush hour on Thursday as transit crime in New York City continues to rise. The woman, 43, was talking on the phone and waiting for the C train at the West 163rd Street station in Washington Heights at around 6.10pm when a man approached her, according to the New York Police Department. The unidentified attacker flashed a knife and tried to grab her phone as they struggled.(Snip)Police describe him as about 30 years old, 5 ft 7 in tall and 160 pounds with a dark complexion and medium build.

Covid, study finds 3 replies
They are a versatile fashion accessory and a staple in every woman's wardrobe. But now researchers say wearing ladies tights on your face could slash your risk of getting Covid. One of the criticisms aimed at commonly worn face coverings is that they do not fit tightly enough to significantly block viral particles from being inhaled or exhaled. As part of a new study, Cambridge University experts reviewed a variety of DIY hacks people have used to make masks fit better, including using rubber bands or tape. Curiously, they found the most effective tactic was to wrap pantyhose around the bottom half of the face—on top of a mask.
Grocery runs have gotten more expensive. Anyone who has taken a look at their receipts in the last few months can tell that prices have gone up on nearly everything from chicken wings to milk as inflation levels reached heights we haven't seen in decades. The cost of food that people eat at home rose 6.5% in December compared to the same month the year before. That's well above what people were used to. Over the last 20 years, the cost of supermarket purchases rose about 2% a year on average. "If you are not careful, you are going to have a full cart and be shocked at how much
It’s been hell in Harlem—the backyard of accused soft-on-crime Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg. In the past few days alone, the storied neighborhood has seen a series of high-profile crimes, including an off-duty cop shot, a man pummeled and run over by a car in a brutal gang assault and a city transit bus full of passengers hit by a stray bullet in broad daylight. And those crimes come on the heels of the shooting deaths of two young NYPD cops in Harlem late last month. Crime is up nearly 30 percent so far this year in the area.

Seattle—Africatown Community Land Trust and Community Roots Housing held a groundbreaking celebration Saturday for the Africatown Plaza project, complete with performances, libations, singing of the Black national anthem and remarks from speakers. Community members recounted the history of the land near 23rd and East Spring Street, recognized the significance of reclaiming the space, and pledged to continue working toward restoring affordable residential and commercial space in Seattle's Central District. The Africatown Community Land Trust works to acquire and develop land for the Black/African diaspora community to live, own businesses and work in the Central District affordably and supports other efforts to retain and develop land.
The US Navy has relieved a triad command team of its duties, citing 'a loss of confidence' in the leaders' abilities but refusing to elaborate on the circumstances that led to the dismissals. Commanding officer Captain Jeffrey Lengkeek—a Stanford-trained civil engineer who joined the Navy's civil engineer corps in 1996—was among the unit leaders let go February 3. Also fired were executive officer Commander Michael Jarosz, and Commander Master Chief Matthew Turner. The men led the Amphibious Construction Battalion 2 in Little Creek, Virginia and played 'a major role in maritime prepositioning force operations,' according to a press release. The shakeup will have no impact on the mission
Times Square, Manhattan—Activists and elected officials gathered in Times Square on Monday to rally in support of legislation that they say would ensure Black and brown women get life-saving care during pregnancy and after childbirth. “In 2022 Black and Brown women are dying simply because of the color of their skin,” Jumaane Williams, the New York City Public Advocate, said. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Black women are three times more likely to die from pregnancy-related deaths compared to White women. The disparity is even wider in New York City with Black women eight times more likely to die than their White counterparts.
The Justice Department says it may be open to allowing safe injection sites—places where people can use heroin and other narcotics with protections against fatal overdoses—a year after winning a major court battle against their opening. The department said it's 'evaluating' such facilities and talking to regulators about 'appropriate guardrails' in response to questions from the Associated Press. The position is a drastic change from its stance in the Trump administration, when prosecutors fought vigorously against a plan to open a safe consumption site in Philadelphia.(Snip)But the Supreme Court declined to take the case in October.
About six weeks later, the first officially authorized safe injection sites
The White House’s top science adviser reportedly resigned Monday night for mistreating and bullying subordinates. Eric Lander submitted his resignation as director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy on Monday evening, the Washington Post reported.
After an internal review found credible evidence that Mr. Lander had repeatedly demeaned colleagues, especially women, the White House had spent much of Monday explaining why he was still on the job, contrary to one of President Biden’s first promises as president. On his first day in office, Mr. Biden told staff members at a swearing-in ceremony that if “I hear you treat another colleague with disrespect, talk down to someone, I promise
White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki was forced to defend the Biden administration on Monday for keeping the president's top science adviser on the job despite 'credible' allegations of bullying.
Psaki refused to give a concrete answer on why Office of Science and Technology Policy chief Dr. Eric Lander has not been fired after an internal White House probe found 'credible evidence' he bullied subordinates and treated his staff in a way that contradicts the administration's workplace policy. President Joe Biden promised on his first day in office that he would run the executive office with a zero tolerance policy for workplace bullying.(Snip)Psaki was asked about Lander three separate
Washington—A White House review found credible evidence that top scientist Dr. Eric Lander violated its “Safe and Respectful Workplace Policy,” but the administration plans to keep him on the job after giving him counseling. An internal review last year, prompted by a workplace complaint, found evidence that Lander, the director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy and science adviser to President Biden, bullied staffers and treated them disrespectfully. That put him at odds with Biden‘s day-one directive that he expected “honesty and decency” from all who worked for his administration and would fire anyone who shows disrespect to others “on the spot.”

The great migration during the pandemic has seen Americans flee high-tax Democrat-run states and flock to Republican-led low-tax or no-income-tax states, a study by The Tax Foundation found. 'People move to states with low-income tax for a multitude of reasons, sometimes it's the most direct and obvious reason that it reduces their own tax liability,' the vice president of state projects at the Tax Foundation, Jared Walczak, told Yahoo. 'Especially now that people have more capacity to move where they want, that will be a higher priority for some,' he added.
The Biden administration is set to fund the distribution of crack pipes to drug addicts as part of its plan to advance "racial equity." The $30 million grant program, which closed applications Monday and will begin in May, will provide funds to nonprofits and local governments to help make drug use safer for addicts. Included in the grant, which is overseen by the Department of Health and Human Services, are funds for "smoking kits/supplies." A spokesman for the agency told the Washington Free Beacon that these kits will provide pipes for users to smoke crack cocaine, crystal methamphetamine, and "any illicit substance."
Joe and Jill Biden have worn face masks to walk across the lawn at the White House, despite there being no mandate to do so and Omicron infection rates collapsing.The Bidens - who are vaccinated and boosted - covered their faces for no apparent reason as they crossed the White House grounds after disembarking Marine One.It is not clear who the President, 79, or the First Lady, 70, were protecting or who they felt they needed protection from as the only people walking across the grounds. When the couple walked closer to the White House, members of the Secret Service and the press were seen nearer,
An American-born figure skater who renounced her US citizenship to compete for China at the Winter Olympics is being slammed on the country’s most popular social media app Sunday after a disappointing performance. Zhu Yi, 19, who skated onto the ice to cheers, fell twice during the women’s short program team event, knocking the host country down from third to fifth place. “Zhu Yi has fallen” immediately became the top trending topic on Weibo — the Chinese equivalent of Twitter — after her poor showing, racking up 200 million views in mere hours, according to CNN. The figure skater, who
The mayor of Canada's capital declared a state of emergency on Sunday as truckers from across the country continue to paralyze Ottawa's downtown.'The situation at this point is completely out of control,' Mayor Watson said on Sunday. 'The individuals with the protest are calling the shots. They have far more people than we have police officers.' Mayor Jim Watson said declaring a state of emergency highlighted the need for support from other jurisdictions and levels of government as the protests enter their 17th day. It gives the city some additional powers around procurement and how it delivers services, which could help purchase equipment required by frontline workers and first responders.
Mayor Eric Adams, who has previously claimed to be vegan, bizarrely refused to say on Monday if he eats fish—or if he consumes any other animal products. Hizzoner brought up his own eating habits at a press conference in Brooklyn following multiple reports he’s been spotted out dining on fish at various restaurants—despite repeatedly insisting he follows a “plant-based” diet. “Does Eric eat fish? Does he eat a hamburger? Does he do this? Does he do that? You know, I mean, it’s just, listen, here’s my message: The more plant-based meals you have, the healthier you are going to be,” the mayor said, unprompted.
Shocking video has emerged that shows a Las Vegas student viciously pounding another girl on the head dozens of times–as other classmates stand by and laugh. The unnamed girl was seen pummeling the student, who lifts her hands to protect herself from the barrage for the first eight seconds of the clip filmed in a Las Vegas High School classroom. A person believed to be the teacher is heard yelling at the attacker, “Stop! Stop! Stop! Get off of her!”
But the brutal beatdown continues–and other students are heard laughing. In the remaining 10 seconds or so of the graphic footage, the victim stops defending herself and rests
Rock star Neil Young has posted a message on his website encouraging Spotify employees to leave the company and criticizing its CEO over the ongoing controversy centered around coronavirus misinformation on "The Joe Rogan Experience." "To the workers at SPOTIFY, I say Daniel Ek is your big problem — not Joe Rogan," wrote Young, who has removed his music from the platform. "Ek pulls the strings. Get out of that place before it eats up your soul. The only goals stated by Ek are about numbers — not art, not creativity." "You must be able to find a better place than SPOTIFY
Former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo regrets resigning over 'bogus' claims he sexually harassed multiple women, and says he will not rule out running again but only once he has 'exposed' Attorney General Letitia James for going after him. Cuomo stepped down last year after James issued a long report which labeled him a serial sex harasser. She based her findings on the accounts of 11 women who said Cuomo had at best made them feel uncomfortable or at worst, groped them. A criminal charge against him has since been dropped, and the last of five criminal investigations ended last week after a District Attorney in upstate New York ruled
The National Archives was forced to retrieve boxes of official White House records from former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago home in Florida - including letters from North Korean leader Kim Jong Un - that had been improperly removed by the ex commander-in-chief.The documents and gifts, which should have been turned over to The National Archives and Records Administration at the end of Trump's presidency, were retrieved by the agency last month, three people familiar with the visit told the Washington Post. Trump and his team took the documents because they reportedly were not following document preservation rules.

A California city has approved a law forcing gun owners to have insurance and pay an annual $25 fee.
“Certainly, the Second Amendment protects every citizen’s right to own a gun. It does not require taxpayers to subsidize that right,” Democratic San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo said, according to CNN.
Gun owners are also required under the law to have insurance. The law, which received its first approval in January, will need approval on a second reading this month before it can go on the books, taking effect in August.
Even before the second reading, a lawsuit has been filed to block the process.
Rumble on Monday offered Joe Rogan $100 million over four years with zero content restrictions if he brings his show over to their platform.
“We stand with you, your guests, and your legion of fans in desire for real conversation. So we’d like to offer you 100 million reasons to make the world a better place,” Rumble CEO Chris Pavlovski wrote. “How about you bring all your shows to Rumble, both old and new, with no censorship, for 100 million bucks over four years?” he added.
“This is our chance to save the world. And yes, this is totally legit.”
