Government Overreach during Covid Contributed
to ‘Pandemic Chaos,’ Scathing Report Finds
Posted By: Dreadnought, 1/31/2024 2:59:50 PM
Poor communication and a refusal to adapt to evolving scientific evidence led to unnecessary school closures and the restriction of outdoor activity during the Covid outbreak, contributing to the “pandemic chaos” that plagued the country for more than two years, a scathing report published Monday revealed. The report, “Pandemic lessons for the 2024 presidential election,” was published in the British Medical Journal and draws on a breadth of scientific studies to assess the policy failures that led to significantly higher death rates in the U.S. than in other developed countries. “During the devastating global covid-19 pandemic, one nation stood out: the United States saw ‘eye wateringly high’ death rates compared with

WASHINGTON — Former President Donald Trump's federal election interference trial in Washington, D.C., will no longer begin on March 4, Judge Tanya Chutkan wrote in a court order released Friday.
It is unclear when exactly the trial will now start, but the case has been on pause for nearly two months — Trump's team requested a stay on Dec. 7, and it was granted on Dec. 13 —which would mean the soonest the trial could start would likely be late April or early May. In a previous order, Chutkan reiterated that a total of seven months was "sufficient time" for Trump to prepare for trial, not including the time the
The United States launched attacks in the Iraq and Syria on Friday, its first retaliatory strikes for the killing of three American soldiers, according to an official at the Department of Defense.
The military action is a significant escalation in Washington's bid to deter the growing threat from Iran-backed groups across the Middle East — a step fraught with risk abroad and at home, as President Joe Biden seeks to prevent the Israel-Hamas war from spiraling into a wider conflict while working to secure his re-election. The Biden administration had made clear that the U.S. would take military action
Carl Weathers, who starred as Apollo Creed in the first four “Rocky” films opposite Sylvester Stallone, died Thursday, his manager Matt Luber confirmed to Variety. He was 76.
Weathers also starred in 1987’s “Predator” and had a memorable role in Adam Sandler’s “Happy Gilmore.” He was nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series for his work in the “Star Wars” series “The Mandalorian.” He voiced Combat Carl in “Toy Story 4” and played a fictionalized version of himself in a recurring role on “Arrested Development.” His other credits include the TV series “Street Justice,” “Colony,” “The Shield,” “Chicago Justice” and “Brothers,” and the films
There are still aftershocks being felt across the media landscape from the massive layoffs experienced at the Los Angeles Times. That paper culled over 20 percent of its news division, affecting departments as broad as its D.C. bureau, local sports beat reporters, as well as culture and opinion sections. This was a news outlet regarded as an institution — one with a wealthy benefactor — and it was still incapable of dodging the bloodletting experienced across the media landscape. In a deeply curious move, the Washington Post — itself a paper backed by billionaire Jeff Bezos yet undergoing a string of layoffs — had a piece regarding
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis acknowledged in a court filing on Friday that she had a personal relationship with prosecutor Nathan Wade, but said that the “salacious” allegations against her do not provide the court with any basis to have her disqualified from the 2020 election-fraud case in Georgia against former president Donald Trump and 18 other defendants.
In the filing, obtained by by the Washington Post, Willis said the allegations that she hired her under-qualified romantic partner to lead the prosecution of the case “are salacious and garnered the media attention they were designed to obtain,” but she added that “none provide
Four of the migrants cut loose without bail after allegedly ganging up on two NYPD cops near Times Square may be on the run, The Post has learned.
Cops believe the group could have hopped on a bus bound for California on Wednesday after giving phony names to a church-affiliated nonprofit group that helps migrants get rides out of the city, according to law enforcement sources. The four accused cop-attackers believed to have skipped town were charged with assault on a police officer and obstruction immediately after the shocking, caught-on-video attack Saturday in Midtown.

CNN anchor Erica Hill was stunned into silence on Friday morning after a panelist explained to her why illegal immigrants don't stay in Florida.
The exchange came after four illegal immigrants were released from jail with no bail after assaulting two police officers in New York City. As they walked out of the police station, they flipped off the cameras and then, according to the NYPD, got on a bus to flee California. During the CNN segment, Jon Miller, who is a law enforcement analyst for CNN, explained how organized these criminal illegal aliens are, noting their rap sheets. He then brings up what NYPD detectives are telling him
Former Trump Organization Chief Financial Officer Allen Weisselberg is negotiating a deal with Manhattan prosecutors that would involve him pleading guilty to perjury.
Weisselberg, who spent nearly half a century working for the Trump Organization and was former President Trump's right-hand man for decades, would have to admit he lied on the stand in October 2023 in former President Donald Trump's civil fraud trial, the New York Times reported Thursday, citing people with knowledge of the matter.
The potential agreement would also reportedly require him to admit that he lied under oath while being interviewed by the New York Attorney General's office.
As one of the most important dates in the U.S. election calendar, Super Tuesday, approaches, voters in Texas are voiced their most recent opinions in a new survey conducted by the University of Houston.
The poll shows that President Biden and Donald Trump are on track to become their party's nominees even before the state primary is held, although many of the state's Latinos are showing reservations regarding Biden.
"The presidential primaries are effectively over here in Texas," Mark Jones, University of Houston research Associate and Rice University fellow, said. "Joe Biden's going to win, Donald Trump's going to win."

and pure pandemonium 10 replies
In the final days of doomed news website The Messenger, insiders painted a chaotic scene of checked-out-bosses and furious staffers — some of whom had already “tapped out” because they had no faith in CEO Jimmy Finkelstein. The accounts from several of the roughly 300 journalists who were fired when the startup went belly-up Wednesday tell of the growing disconnect between highly-paid editor-in-chief Dan Wakeford and the beleaguered staff, according to insiders who spoke to The Post on Thursday.
With news swirling that Finkelstein was scrambling to shore up funds in order to save the company — launched just last May with $50 million in funding
Who says that razor wire and shipping containers, along with a border wall don’t work to keep illegal border crossers out? Well, besides the White House spokesditz? Those measures seem to be working well enough in the Eagle Pass, Texas area that a dramatic drop in illegal crossings is being reported.
According to a tweet posted by Fox News Channel’s Bill Melugin, a major shift has occurred. The majority of illegal border crossings has shifted from Eagle Pass to Arizona and California.
Per CBP sources, over the last week of January, Border Patrol apprehended 32,809 illegal immigrants.
23,576 of them (71.8%) were in AZ & CA.
Notably, the numbers in TX’s Del Rio sector,
It's quite something that the Democrats sold Joe Biden as some kind of a nice moderate who would supposedly restore order and have the "adults back in charge." That was such fiction, and everything has been out of order and in chaos since he came in, from domestic issues to foreign policy. He's governed like someone completely under the control of the left, with extreme positions on the border and student loans, for example.
Instead, we got a nasty man. He makes up things constantly to pander and to hold onto control. He screams at people when he's challenged, he's called voters and media all kinds

As though President Biden hasn't taken enough actions to offer aid and comfort to America's enemies already, now he is reportedly to issue an executive order (EO) threatening Israeli citizens who have settled in the West Bank.
President Joe Biden is expected to issue an executive order targeting Israeli settlers in the West Bank who have been attacking Palestinianns in the occupied territory, according to four people familiar with the matter.
A senior administration official, who like the others was not authorized to comment publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity, said the White House was expected to announce the order later Thursday.
The order comes with Biden facing growing criticism

Over 500 journalists were laid off from news outlets in January, according to a new report released Thursday, as many organizations continue to struggle financially. (snip) The job cuts come after an already bleak year. The news industry shed 3,087 digital, broadcast and print news jobs in 2023 — the highest annual total since 2020, when 16,060 cuts were recorded.

Migrants housed in one of New York City's hotels will receive pre-paid cards with which to buy food and baby supplies, instead of the city providing meals the migrants often did not want.
Eric Adams, the mayor of New York, estimated the scheme will save the city $600,000 a month, or $7.2 million annually.
The pilot program is being rolled out at the Roosevelt Hotel in Manhattan, with 500 families involved, The New York Post reported. They will be given cards which can be only used at bodegas, supermarkets and delis. Migrants must sign an affidavit promising to only use the cards for food and baby supplies, or else
Fox News host Dagen McDowell warned Republicans not to run on the economy in the upcoming election because “it’s good” right now. Recently, Democrats have credited President Joe Biden for the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 index hitting record heights. Moreover, the labor market grew exponentially in January as the U.S. added more than 350,000 jobs.
Gavin Newsom revealed Wednesday that he once witnessed a shoplifter steal from Target without any interference from workers, one of whom blamed the California governor for emboldened criminals in the state before she realized who he actually was. (snip) Newsom said he was on the Target checkout line when he and a store worker saw the thief waltz out of the store with items he didn’t pay for, according to footage posted online.
“I said, ‘why didn’t you stop him,’” Newsom said. “She goes, ‘oh, the governor.’ Swear to God, true story on my mom’s grave. ‘The governor lowered the threshold, there’s no accountability.’
The U.S. has launched a devastating wave of airstrikes on Iran's Revolutionary Guard in Iraq and Syria in retaliation for the drone strike that killed three U.S. troops.
Multiple long-range bombers and drones hit 85 targets with 125 bombs over 30 minutes in the widespread military operation on Friday night ordered by President Joe Biden.
The president said strikes will continue 'at times and places of our choosing' and warned militias in the Middle East: 'If you harm an American, we will respond'.
The only reason this story gained traction was because CCTV video was involved. With tens of millions of violent illegal aliens throughout the country, just imagine how much crime is occurring (snip)
In New York City, five illegal aliens acting as a pack of wild dogs were caught-on-camera attacking two NYPD cops in Times Square. They were tracked down and arrested. However, after appearing in court, they immediately received bail.(snip)Cops believe the group hopped on a bus bound for California on Wednesday after giving phony names to a church-affiliated nonprofit group that helps migrants get rides out of the city, according to law enforcement sources.
On Friday, Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mike Johnson (R-LA) mused about the possibility of something that is becoming more and more apparent with each passing day: Joe Biden isn't the guy in charge in Washington.
Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) speculated Friday that President Biden’s staff is keeping him from taking executive action to stem the flow of migrants on the southern border.
“He knows that he has the authority. We’ve documented it for him. I’ve read to him the law myself — to the president. Read him the provisions of the law and said, ‘Mr. President, please take action,’” Johnson said
Elon Musk weighed in on Joe Biden’s agenda.
News broke in January that Joe Biden will prioritize legal status for millions of illegal immigrants in the United States. This comes after Joe Biden opened the borders and allowed over 10 million illegals from over a hundred countries to invade the United States. Republicans are still too afraid to impeach Biden for this criminal act.
The AP reported: President-elect Joe Biden’s decision to immediately ask Congress to offer legal status to an estimated 11 million people in the country has surprised advocates given how the issue has long divided Democrats and Republicans, even within their own parties.

[T]he priority now for the White House must be to strengthen its military presence in the region, not reduce it. Worse, the vacuum created by any withdrawal by US troops is sure to be filled by adversaries of America and the free world.
Any US withdrawal is sure to be seen, especially after the US surrender in Afghanistan, as America running away -- again.
[I]t would be folly of the highest order for the Biden administration even to contemplate a reduction of US forces in the region. With Iran clearly intent on pursuing its proxy war against the US and its allies,
