Instapundit-Curiously, in May, NBC was rather skeptical
WARP SPEED: US says Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine to start arriving in states Monday.
Earlier: Operation Warp Speed: Trump’s End-Run Around The Failure Of Civilian Bureaucracy: New document reveals scope and structure of Operation Warp Speed and underscores vast military involvement. “The military’s extensive involvement in the development and distribution of a vaccine is a departure from pandemics of the past.”
Curiously, in May, NBC was rather skeptical that a vaccine could be delivered by the end of the year:

Pre-existing flu immunity impacts antibody quality following infection and vaccination
Pre-existing flu immunity impacts antibody quality following infection and vaccination
..."researchers found that influenza vaccinations boost antibodies that tended to target conserved yet neutralizing regions of the virus, which suggests vaccinations can draw upon pre-existing immunity to prompt more protective responses.
...Immune system memory ensures a rapid and specific response to previously encountered pathogens.
...As a result, our bodies often rely on old antibodies to fight new influenza strains; this is possible because some parts of the influenza virus that are critical to its structure or function do not change, remaining familiar to our immune system.
...Scientists believe a person's age, history of exposure to the influenza virus and type of exposure—either through infection or vaccination—all shape whether their immune system antibodies target neutralizing or non-neutralizing sites on a virus.
In the UChicago study, scientists sought to address a major knowledge gap:
- Which conserved viral sites are preferentially targeted following natural infection versus vaccination in people,
- and how does pre-existing immunity play a role in shaping the landscape of neutralizing and non-neutralizing antibodies?...Read all.

Computer repairman at center of 'Biden laptop' scandal breaks silence after reportedly receiving death threats: I'm no 'Russian agent' - TheBlaze:
John Paul Mac Isaac, the computer repairman at the center of a reported Biden family scandal, is speaking out against any assertions that he is a Russian agent or hacker. Mac Isaac made the remarks in a new video shared to YouTube on Saturday.
What's a brief history here?

"This is exactly why we have generations of indoctrinated kids who know nothing of the evils of socialism.
"This is exactly why we have generations of indoctrinated kids who know nothing of the evils of socialism.
Our public schools are hotbeds of liberals who mostly supported the socialist Biden and the marxists Harris.
The ignorance of our teachers is astounding.
Many of our school books are printed in Muslim countries who desire America’s destruction.
Is it any wonder they push socialism which will destroy America like it has in any country that goes that way."

Don Surber: Do we need an FBI?
Don Surber: Do we need an FBI?
The FBI actually aids and abets crime.
"The people who have run the FBI in recent years know the power of not enforcing the law.
- Its investigation of Hillary's sale of state secrets through 33,000 private emails focused not on prosecuting her, but on destroying all evidence of her crimes, including the computer she used...
- Then there is Seth Rich, the man who blew the whistle on the DNC and sent to Wikileaks a thumb drive of incriminating emails. Everyone in DC knows he was murdered. No one is investigating...
- If it did, it would have told Obama to pound salt when he demanded the FBI spy on Donald John Trump. Instead it lied to federal judges and spied. 4 years later, only one poor soul has been prosecuted. No other prosecution is expected.
- Then there is Hunter Biden's laptop filled with details of corruption, bribes, and sex with underage women in Red China. It sat on that laptop for a year. The good citizen who turned it in lost his business and is now in hiding.
Look, if the FBI is not going to enforce the law, ditch it because it has morphed into a KGB for Democrats, covering up their crimes and trying to entrap anyone the Democrats don't like...Read all.

REVENGE!-----Totalitarian Left Promises Purges And Punishment For All Trump Voters
Totalitarian Left Promises Purges And Punishment For All Trump Voters
"If 2020 didn’t already feel enough of a Kafkaesque nightmare, the latest bit of depravity from the “hate has no home here” totalitarian left is a ghoulish scheme announced by three former Barack Obama and Pete Buttigieg staffers on Twitter last week called “The Trump Accountability Project.”
- By trying to name and shame Trump supporters, the ‘Trump Accountability Project’ betrays a preference for Soviet-style retribution over a commitment to basic decency.
Aspiring apparatchiks Emily Abrams, Michael Simon, and Hari Sevugan lauded the website whose stated mission is to “never forget those who furthered the Trump agenda.”
According to the now privatized site, whose internet archives were captured, anyone associated with the Trump administration, including those who elected him, staffed his government, funded him, endorsed him, worked in law firms for him, and who supported him in general, should be “held accountable.”
...No one is spared: assistants, receptionists, stenographers, calligraphers—our diligent Comrades know how to name names.
The idea of punishing people who have supported Trump also surfaced among media types including Jake Tapper of CNN and Jennifer Rubin of the Washington Post.
All of them have called for at least social recriminations such as keeping the “guilty” from being able to support themselves and their families through paid employment...Read all.
Tulsi Gabbard Introduces Bill BANNING Biological Men from Women's Sports - Louder With Crowder
Tulsi Gabbard Introduces Bill BANNING Biological Men from Women's Sports - Louder With Crowder:
There's a debate in this country. Should biological men be allowed to compete in girls' sports? Here's South Park with a more in-depth explainer. There shouldn't be a debate. But, you know. One side thinks it's unfair and robs biological girls of opportunities. The other side thinks that side are a bunch of transphobes. Transgenders remain #1 on the left's pound-for-pound most marginalized rankings. Women keep dropping in the ranks. It may have something to do with the way they keep voting for Donald Trump. This is all conjecture and opinions.
The debate took a turn as Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard — a DEMOCRAT — has introduced a bipartisan bill saying biological men should only do sports against other biological men.

"Move over, Solyndra.
Another green boondoggle from the Obama era has failed, and taxpayers are out as much as $510 million.
