From 2018. The lie still stands!!----- Flint lead "poisoning"---Medically speaking, the lead in the water turned out to be a non-event.

 Flint Lead ‘Poisoning’: Medical Evidence Encouraging | National Review

"The city’s kids made photogenic victims, but thankfully the scare was overblown.
The numbers are in on the lead contamination of Flint, Michigan’s water in 2014–15, and it’s time for a sigh of relief.
Medically speaking, the lead in the water turned out to be a non-event.
The increase in lead content in children’s blood after the water debacle was small.
Tiny, in fact.
How tiny?
It was basically statistical noise: 0.11 micrograms per deciliter, which is within the range of normal fluctuation.
Two experts explain in the New York Times:
A similar increase of 0.12 micrograms per deciliter occurred randomly in 2010-11.
It is not possible, statistically speaking, to distinguish the increase that occurred at the height of the contamination crisis from other random variations over the previous decade.
...The authors of the Times piece note that 5 micrograms per deciliter is considered a “reference level.” 
This isn’t the point at which someone’s health is in jeopardy, but merely a heads-up that it’s time to start exploring the environment to discover why the lead levels are elevated.
Before the changeover in the water supply, 2.2 percent of Flint children tested above the reference level.
After the changeover, that number rose, but only to 3.7 percent.
Just 20 years ago, in the late 1990s, when no celebrities were talking about the water in Flint, nearly 45 percent of the children there had lead levels above that point. 
...Now let’s dial back the clock to the late 1970s, and previous decades, when cars used leaded gasoline and lead was everywhere.
Essentially all children in the Seventies were worse off than Flint children at the height of the crisis. 
In the late 1970s, 88 percent of U.S. children tested had double today’s reference level of lead in their blood — 10 micrograms of lead per deciliter.
In 2015, the worst year of the water problem in Flint, the average child tested had 1.3 micrograms of lead per deciliter.
That’s down almost half from the levels recorded as recently as 2006, when that figure was 2.33 micrograms of lead per deciliter in the city..."

Fed Chairman Jerome Powell's Presser Should Alarm Everyone on Main Street - The Last RefugeThe Last Refuge

To me, this is just jaw-dropping. The Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell made statements today akin to saying the emperor is wearing a beautiful coat.
"I can share examples, but to really encapsulate the issues, it’s actually easier to start by sharing a chart he presented when discussing inflation.
Do you notice anything missing in this chart? 

Look at it carefully.

If you look at it and say: “hey, where’s the actual 2021 data he is talking about“, give yourself a cookie.
The guy is talking about the issue of 2021 inflation and expressing his empathy that inflation is running “far ahead” of the federal reserve projections. Yet, the graphic Powell uses doesn’t even show the 2021 rate of inflation that he is expressing his concern about.
Why wouldn’t the graphic show the rate of inflation for 2021?...

This is in essence what the graphic would look like if Powell included the 2021 inflation he is concerned about:

...do you really think that scale of inflation is going to drop in a dramatic inverted V formation to where the Fed projects it will end up next year (the little red line in the thing that looks like a battery)? Pro Tip: It won’t.
The chairman even said he anticipates “strong inflation throughout next year” into 2023. 

...The key takeaway is this….
…. Take care of your family, this is only going to get worse...Read all!!!

'Build Back' Bill Adds 87,000 IRS Agents, Cuts Money for Hospitals in Red States: 'It's Mean-Spirited' | CBN News

'Build Back' Bill Adds 87,000 IRS Agents, Cuts Money for Hospitals in Red States: 'It's Mean-Spirited' | CBN News: 

President Joe Biden's "Build Back Better" plan, which is currently stalled in the U.S. Senate, has drawn even more questions about controversial items in the proposed $2 trillion bill.  One of those items is $80 million for hiring 87,000 new Internal Revenue Service (IRS) agents, according to multiple sources, including Americans for Tax Reform and Headline USA.  In a statement released on the Build Back Better framework in late October, the White House said "the IRS does not have the resources it needs to pursue wealthy tax cheats." But new evidence indicates tens of thousands of those new IRS agents would be tasked with targeting middle-income Americans.

CNN Quietly Resets 'Days Since An Employee Committed A Sex Crime' Counter Back To Zero | The Babylon Bee

"ATLANTA, GA—According to an anonymous source within the organization, CNN has quietly reset their counter that measures the days since one of their employees committed a sex crime back to zero. 

"I don't think we've ever made it past one day," said the source. "Well, I take that back—I think we made it for two days sometime last spring." 

This seems to confirm what many on the outside have come to suspect—that CNN is a roiling cauldron of disgusting sexual abuse that would make the residents of Sodom and Gomorrah blush...Read all!

Noem proposes new bill to bar biological males from women's sports months after veto | Washington Examiner: 

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem proposed new legislation Tuesday that would bar biological males from competing in women's collegiate athletics, months after she faced conservative criticism for vetoing a similar measure in March.

The draft, two-page legislation says, “Only female athletes, based on their biological sex, may participate in any team, sport, or athletic event designated as being for females, women, or girls,” and that any athlete harmed by noncompliance would be entitled to “injunctive relief.”

A Christmas Plea to the Doctors, Scientists, and Voices Honestly Reporting on COVID and the Lockdowns
"In the history of our planet, we have never seen a cash, profit, luxury, or a stealing-power-from-the-people machine-like COVID-19.
The testing, vaccines, and now boosters are making hundreds of billions of dollars for a – relative to the world population – handful of people.
For that very reason, it’s perfectly logical to assume that some of those who are directly or indirectly raking in multiple lifetimes of incomes in days, weeks, or months thanks only to the appearance of the virus and the panic deliberately created around it, would be thrilled to have certain doctors, scientists, and politicians “discover” the next “variant” every few months or so in order to roll out the next round of multi-billion-dollar profit-making testing and treatment regimes.
After all, who is going to stop them?...Read all!

(Updated) Twitter corrects typo in COVID-19 misleading information policy that appeared to contradict CDC guidance - TheBlaze: 

Twitter has corrected a typo in its COVID-19 misleading information policy that led to reports the company would begin taking enforcement actions against accounts that claim vaccinated people can still spread the novel coronavirus. Users that violate Twitter's guidelines will receive strikes on their account which can lead to permanently being banned. A typo in Twitter's recently updated guidelines appeared to contradict official information from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and has since been corrected to remedy the error.

This year the Salvation Army’s International Social Justice Commission published a discussion guide called “Let’s Talk About Racism.” The document, its authors say, was “designed to stimulate gracious discussion among Salvationists who choose to participate.” But its radical woke overtones against American Christians seem to make such gracious discussion impossible.
