Later this week, the FDA plans to approve, as the first outpatient COVID drugs, therapeutics that are extremely dangerous and unproven, even as the agency goes to war against cheap, safe, and proven drugs with a track record of no serious adverse events. The approval is as shocking as it is revealing and should serve as a warning to those who don’t believe the FDA would approve vaccines that aren’t safe and effective.

The job of the people protecting Joe Biden is to spin all of his f*ck ups so the blame falls on someone else. That dirty job lies mainly on White House Spokeessoulessginger Jen Psaki. We've already heard her blame Biden's horrendous poll numbers on the American people not knowing any better. One of her more recent questionable claims was saying the rise of meat prices ISN'T the fault of Joe Biden's policies causing everything to be more expensive. It's the fault of greedy meat conglomerates. Mike Rowe, a regular critic of our puddingheaded president, calls free-range cow manure on that one.

A law professor proposed Monday that two major edits must be made to the United States Constitution in order to place new restrictions on the First Amendment and Second Amendment.
Mary Anne Franks — a law professor at the University of Miami Law School — published an essay in the Boston Globe advocating that both amendments be edited to promote the collective good, arguing that each is too individualistic in its current form.
They worked with the media to trash the Great Barrington Declaration. "In public, Anthony Fauci and Francis Collins urge Americans to “follow the science.”
In private, the two sainted public-health officials schemed to quash dissenting views from top scientists.

"The editors of the BMJ—one of the oldest and most respected scientific journals in the world—have issued a blistering letter slamming Facebook for one of its "fact-checking" partners the editors are calling "inaccurate, incompetent and irresponsible."
At issue is the BMJ's publishing of a report on "internal company documents, photos, audio recordings, and emails" it received from an employee who had worked for a subcontractor of Pfizer during the company's COVID-19 vaccine trials. The materials "revealed a host of poor clinical trial research practices occurring at Ventavia that could impact data integrity and patient safety," the editors claim.
