Cheryl Hines: Rob, You Crazy!

Cheryl Hines blast anti-vaxxer husband Robert F. Kennedy.

The Randy Quaid of the Kennedy dynasty is under fire and his wife also called his ass out.

Actress Cheryl Hines is married to Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., the son of slain politician Robert F. Kennedy. He is the nephew of John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy. He is cousin to Caroline Kennedy and journalist/former California first lady Maria Shriver.

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. found himself in some real heat when his crazy ass compared vaccines to the betrayal of Anne Frank. His father, then U.S. Attorney General and U.S. Senator from New York was killed in 1968 during the peak of the Democratic primaries. He was assassinated by Sirhan Sirhan, a Palestinian man who was a conspiracy nut angered by Kennedy's stance on Israel.

Robert F. Kennedy championed for civil rights and anti-war. He championed many causes. 

His son is champion of extremism.

He appeared at an anti-Joe Biden, anti-vax, anti-mandate rally in Washington, DC on Saturday.

The anti-vaccine activist  made “deeply offensive” comments when he suggested things are worse for people today than they were for Anne Frank, the teenager who died in a Nazi concentration camp after hiding with her family in a secret annex in an Amsterdam house for two years, several Jewish advocacy and Holocaust remembrance groups said Monday.

“Making reckless comparisons to the Holocaust, the murder of six million Jews, for a political agenda is outrageous and deeply offensive. Those who carelessly invoke Anne Frank, the star badge, and the Nuremberg Trials exploit history and the consequences of hate,” the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum said Monday in a statement posted to Twitter.

A spokesman said the museum made the statement in response to Kennedy’s speech and other recent incidents of people invoking the Holocaust for political purposes. The museum also pointed out that Anne Frank was one of the 1.5 million children who died during the Holocaust.

Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO of the Anti-Defamation League, wrote on Twitter that Kennedy invoking Anne Frank’s memory and the mass murder of Jews by the Nazis to make a comparison with the U.S. government “working to ensure the health of its citizens is deeply inaccurate, deeply offensive and deeply troubling. This must stop.”

Among the others condemning the comment were Yad Vashem, the World Holocaust Remembrance Center, in Jerusalem, which said it “denigrates the memory of its victims and survivors.”

During a Sunday rally in Washington organized by his anti-vaccine nonprofit group Children’s Health Defense, Kennedy complained that people’s rights were being violated by public health measures that had been taken to reduce the number of people sickened and killed by COVID-19. He said the nation’s leading infectious disease doctor, Anthony Fauci, was orchestrating “fascism.”

“Even in Hitler’s Germany, you could cross the Alps to Switzerland. You could hide in an attic like Anne Frank did,” said Kennedy, a nephew of President John F. Kennedy and the son of his slain brother, former U.S. attorney general, civil rights activist and Democratic presidential contender Robert F. Kennedy.

Kennedy Jr. went on to say that today, “the mechanisms are being put in place that will make it so none of us can run and none of us can hide,” and complained about 5G, the newest generation of wireless communication networks, and about vaccine passports.

Radical Kennedy goes to bat for anti-vaccines.

An AP investigation published last month detailed how Kennedy has invoked the specter of Nazis and the Holocaust in his work to sow doubts about vaccines and agitate against public health efforts to bring the pandemic under control, such as requiring masks or vaccine mandates.

In a speech to the Ron Paul Institute in October, for example, Kennedy referenced Nazis multiple times, obliquely comparing public health measures put in place by governments around the world to Nazi propaganda meant to scare people into abandoning critical thinking. Last month, he put out a video that showed a picture of Fauci with a Hitler mustache.

In an email sent by a spokeswoman on Monday, Kennedy described his statement as “a factual observation that technology has given an arsenal of frightening instrumentalities to totalitarian elements.”

“I referred to Anne Frank’s terrible two year ordeal only by way of showing that modern surveillance capacity would make her courageous feat virtually impossible today,” he said.

Kennedy said he “compared no one to the Nazis or Adolf Hitler,” but did not immediately address other instances when he has invoked Nazis and Hitler to make a political point.

Kennedy apologized in 2015, after he used the word “holocaust” to describe children whom he believes were hurt by vaccines. He said at the time that he “employed the term during an impromptu speech.”

That he has continued to use such comparisons indicates, “he means it,” said Dr. David Gorski, a cancer surgeon at Wayne State University School of Medicine in Detroit and a critic of the anti-vaccine movement who has tracked Kennedy’s rhetoric for over 15 years. Gorski said Kennedy has been making Nazi and Holocaust references in relation to vaccines since at least 2013.

In the past few years, Gorski said, Kennedy has been more open about using such language, which he said may indicate Kennedy senses it resonates with the new fan base he has built up during the pandemic, or that the consequences of using such language aren’t “unacceptably negative.”

The AP investigation documented how Kennedy had grown his group during the pandemic, expanding his audience and pulling in millions of dollars in new funding.

Gorski said the language demonstrates one of the ways Kennedy likes to connect with his audience: buttering them up by portraying them as going against the flow and smarter than everyone else.

“If vaccine mandates are totalitarian like Nazis and the Soviet Union and that sort of thing, what does that make the anti-vaxxers? They’re brave freedom fighters,” Gorski said. “There’s flattery in those analogies.”

Aryeh Tuchman of the ADL’s Center on Extremism said Kennedy’s repeated comments invoking the Holocaust were shocking. Such rhetoric ratchets up tensions and leads to the demonization of people who disagree, whipping up anger and rage, Tuchman said, adding that the repeated comments showed Kennedy had a callous disregard for the feelings of Jewish people.

“These analogies are historically specious and hurtful to Jews and, frankly, to anyone who has a historical memory of who the Nazis were and what they did,” Tuchman said. “Anything in the pursuit of his agenda.”

Biden Calls Fox Karen A Stupid Son Of A B***h!

Biden said the quiet part out loud. He called Fox reporter a stupid son of a bitch.

The junk food media is worked over the president calling a Fox reporter a "stupid son of a bitch."

The hot mic comment came after Karen Doocy made the remark about "inflation being a political liability" in the Midterms. The president was annoyed by the remarks and ripped the reporter.

Doocy is the son of Fox & Friends host and far-right agitator Karen Doocy.

The far-right is livid over the remark. The "Let's Go Brandon" crowd who said that liberals are snowflakes, crybabies, and triggered by patriotism are outraged over the way President Joe Biden went after Doocy.

It is well known that Biden has a tense relationship with Fox. The network has embraced total opposition to the president and is whipping up conspiracy theories about his policies, his health and his agenda. They are notorious for hosting white nationalists on their platforms. They inspired Washed Up 45's supporters to question the election and storm the U.S. Capitol.

It was revealed that "Softball" Hannity, Karen Ingraham and Karen Kilmeade told former White House Chief of Staff Karen Meadows to get the former president to denounce the riots at the Capitol.

The very next day, they're busy trying to pin the insurrection on Washington, DC mayor Muriel Bowser and Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), another target of the far-right. 

It was reported that the president did call Doocy to formally apologize. 

Appearing on "Softball" Hannity's carnival of bullshit, Doocy said the president reached out to him "within about an hour of that exchange."

Biden calls Fox a propaganda outlet for Republicans.

"He said ‘It’s nothing personal, pal,'" Doocy said. "And we went back and forth, and we were talking about just kind of moving forward, and I made sure to tell him that I'm always gonna try to ask something different than what everybody else is asking. And he said, ‘You got to.’ And that's a quote from the president, so I'll keep doing it."

 The annoying agitator asked if Biden apologized, Doocy responded, "He cleared the air and I appreciate it."

"We had a nice call," Doocy said.

"That's not an answer," the softball chuckled. "That doesn't sound like an apology."

"He said 'It's nothing personal, pal.' And I told him that I appreciate him reaching out," Doocy replied, adding, "Hey Sean, the world is on the brink of, like, World War III right now with all of this stuff going on. I appreciate that the president took a couple of minutes out this evening while he was still at this desk to give me a call and clear the air."

"I don't need anybody to apologize to me. He can call me whatever he wants as long as it gets him talking!" Doocy added. "I think that's enough. That's enough. So we can move on. We can now move forward. There will be years- three to seven years of opportunities to ask him about different stuff."

What is the most annoying is the do nothing congresswoman, Karen Boebert of Colorado. The white nationalist Republican who wore a "Let's Go Brandon" red dress at Mar-a-Lago decided to jump on the bandwagon.

This lawmaker had called Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), another one of the do nothings in Congress a member of the "Jihad Squad." She has openly called for violence against lawmakers and has been warned that the continuation of antics will get her stripped from her committee assignments.

Boebert like many of the far-right want to insult Americans without repercussions. If we had a Democrat willing to call her and Rep. Idiot Karen Greene (R-GA) a bunch of stupid white bitches, I bet you money the far-right would call for resignations and removal from office. 

The far-right is "triggered" only when someone stands up to their constant bullshit.

Biden will clash with Doocy. 

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki will clash with Doocy. 

As far as we know, he still has a place in the White House Briefing Room despite his stupid ass questions.

James Iannazzo Caught The Digital Dash!

Merrill Lynch cans the smoothie jerk.

A Connecticut man found out the digital dash. He went on a racist tirade and violent encounter with servers at a Robek Smoothie. Now he not only lost his job, but he is facing criminal charges that could put his ass in the iron college.

He was upset over a smoothie that triggered his child's allergic reaction. The child had a peanut allergy and it was the drink. As the child was being treated for his injuries, the man reacted. He went to the Fairfield, Connecticut store to demand a manager.

The confrontation quickly escalated, as the suspect allegedly threw a smoothie at one of the workers.

Angry man made himself famous for the wrong reasons.

Employees called police after they say he tried to break into the back of the shop.

"He threatened to kill us multiple times," said employee Charlie Hill. "He tried to come behind the doors, and I started recording."

Video of the incident posted on TikTok has been viewed millions of times.

The suspect surrendered to police shortly after it happened.

He admitted he never told the employees about his son's allergy, but says he did ask for the smoothie without peanut butter.

He has hired a lawyer who said the suspect was under stress and his parental instincts kicked in because his son got sick from the smoothie.

The suspect has been charged with multiple counts and is due in court Feb. 7.

Merrill Lynch, which employed the suspect as a financial advisor, released the following statement on Monday:

"Our company does not tolerate behavior of this kind. We immediately investigated and have taken action. This individual is no longer employed at our firm."

The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a law. 

The suspect faces at least two years if convicted.

Talcum X (aka Snow White) Wants Sanders To Primary Biden!

Still trolling for a buck.

Many in the Black activism movement have warned you about this guy. 

I was fooled by this guy. I didn't know how toxic he was. His support for white gentrification and white leftists is a problem. He's been called out by families of police violence victims. He has never walked or marched with the protesters. He claims that he had impact on the decisions. Oh, by the way he's selling ARealOne Hoodies online for at least $150. 

The controversial leftist once again is sparking online discussion. He is actively trying to discourage Democrats to not vote in the Midterms and 2024 Presidential Election.

Jeffrey Shaun King is a leftist agitator who is accused of bilking his followers out of their money. He often calls to attention issues involving police violence against people of color.

He runs to social media to encourage his followers to take action and also make a contribution to his grassroots group.

He was called out by Samaria Rice, the mother of Tamir Rice for being a thief and a shameless white man. He was also criticized for purchasing a $1 million dollar home in New Jersey. During those events, somehow he magically had a problem. Even former ally DeRay McKesson had addressed him.

King has notoriously blocked Black activists and those who criticize him.

He was one of the main reasons to why Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) failed to win the Democratic nomination in 2016 and 2020.

He has spread misinformation about Hillary Clinton, Beto O'Rourke, Michael Bloomberg, Kamala Harris, Joe Biden, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ). He got called out by Sybrina Fulton, the mother of Trayvon Martin, Rachel Maddow, Sen. Brian Schatz (D-HI), Clay Cane and numerous others. 

He temporarily deactivated his Twitter account after he was caught making a fake profile to troll critics of him. He was trying to defend himself from Samaria Rice's attacks.

King would not survive if Twitter banned him.

He wanted to endorse a primary challenge against Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY). Jeffries who is working behind the scenes to keep leftists from infiltrating the Democratic Party's moderate and progressive wings called "Jeffrey" out for being on team "gentrification."

King is a celebrity among social media. He has 1.1 million followers. Years before he had over 2 million. He is also an ordained pastor, legal attorney, activist and questionable swindler.

The really gay far-right extremist Karen Yiannopoulos questioned King's race in an article for Breitbart and it listed his birth parents as white. King maintains that he's biracial and his father was not white. He even called his mother a whore. He has never met this so-called biracial father.

Even his wife, Rai King is grifting. Folks are calling them out for sharing pictures of them driving in RVs, taking trips to Walt Disney World, sharing expensive luxury and bragging about how life is good.

Rai even admits that King is white but no one seems to care other than the folks who were scammed, defrauded and angered by his actions. He claims to be a transracial man.

The Daily Beast has the full article here on this link.

Be careful of Jeffrey Shaun King folks. He claims to be down for the struggle but he seems to be making a handsome profit off all these "calls to action."

Happy Hour!

Pirro is co hosting The Five.

Fox Karen ends her longtime weekend show to join the circus of The Five. The far-right agitator signs off her longtime show Justice with Jeanine Pirro.

Eleven years ago, "Justice with Judge Jeanine" began, hosted by a former prosecutor, judge and D.A. sitting not in a courtroom with armed deputies, but instead in a studio armed with teleprompters, monitors and a dedicated staff and crew. The mission was a familiar one: finding truth and justice — the jury bigger, though. In fact, a national one, thus bringing you truth, justice and the American way. Each and every week, we watched events unfold in America together through the lens of this studio. When we started this journey, we were all a bit younger, but not as wise as we are now. We were certainly more optimistic. 

I thank you for fighting for me, and you know who you are. So as we reach the end of this journey, don't think you're getting rid of me just yet. I'll be going to the number one show on all of cable news this Monday, "The Five," right here on Fox, so you'll be able to see me five days a week. I will continue to fight for all of you, to make my views known, to make my arguments clear and to fight for the America that we all know and love. I'll be sitting there looking out for you, as always, and hopefully you'll be right there looking back at me.

She joins The Five along with rotating Fox "liberals" Harold Ford, Jr., Jessica Tarlov and Karen Rivera.

The other hosts who also have weekday shows include Karen Perino, Karen Watters and Karen Gutfeld.

Karen Pirro, the drunk former New York state prosecutor turned far-right agitator is a sycophant for Washed Up 45 and his goons. In 2018, Pirro and "Softball" Hannity got yelled at when they appeared on stage with Washed Up 45 in Missouri. They violated their "journalistic" credibility by appearing on stage.

But of course, Fox doesn't have a standard. They could have gotten rid of her years ago, but since she pulls in ratings, they keep her on. Same with that annoying agitator, "Softball" Hannity.

The FEC did not find Fox in violation of having them on stage.

The original complaint, filed in March 2019 by Florida lawyer Michael Edelman, argued that when Fox "Softball" Hannity and Pirro appeared alongside the former president at a November 2018 rally in support of white nationalist Karen Hawley, they were acting as "agents" for Fox and thus making an illegal corporate in-kind contribution to the Missouri's Republican's campaign.

Ahead of the rally, :Softball" Hannity had declared that he would "not be on stage campaigning with the President" but would instead be interviewing Washed Up 45 before the rally and covering the event for his show.

But then Washed Up 45 called him up to the podium anyway, prompting Hannity to tell the former president that he "had no idea you were going to invite me up here."

In a February 2020 legal analysis, the commission's legal counsel accepted Fox's argument, noting that all publicly-available information indicating that Hannity and Pirro did appear in their personal capacities. 

"Neither Hannity nor Pirro mentioned Fox News in their comments, Fox News did not cover or broadcast their comments, and it disavowed their appearances the very next day," read the analysis.

The commission chose not to address Fox's second argument, that Hannity and Pirro were acting as journalists. "It is unnecessary to resolve Fox News's argument that the media exemption applies," read the analysis.

Ultimately, the commission voted 5 -1 in December to dismiss the complaint. Only Republican Commissioner Karen Trainor voted against the dismissal, though he did not provide an explanation for his vote.

Rocket City!

Huntsville is the largest city in Alabama.

The largest city in Alabama sits on the banks of the Tennessee River. 

As of today, Huntsville became the largest city in the state. The current population of the city is 220,000 residents. It surpassed Birmingham. The city of Birmingham now sits at 195,000 residents.

The city that sits in Appalachian plateau grew over the last decade and it's booming. The city has expanded into more territory and it's now debating over how to draw its bordering.

The city has become diverse.

Inside Madison, Limestone and Morgan Counties, Huntsville grew from its original 158,000 to now the current population. 

North Alabama has also seen rapid growth and it's only giving bragging rights to the once isolated region.

Huntsville, nicknamed the Rocket City for its historical ties to the space industry, has seen rapid growth over the last ten years partly fueled by the tech and manufacturing sectors. The population of the city has jumped by 19% since 2010.

“I’m proud that the great things we have going on in Huntsville have grown our city,” Huntsville Mayor Tommy Battle wrote in a tweet. “To tell the truth, we’re more focused on being the best than the biggest. That is what my team and I are going to continue to work on every day.”

Birmingham got the nickname the Magic City for its rapid growth and had long been Alabama’s largest city. Much of the recent growth around Birmingham has been concentrated in the surrounding suburban areas, rather than in the city itself.

“Growth in any city is good for Alabama, good for Birmingham and for our metro region,” Birmingham Mayor Randall L. Woodfin said in a statement in response to media questions about the change to being Alabama’s second-largest city. He said city officials plan to analyze the data.

Heading east on Interstate 565 for six miles takes you to Huntsville.

“Birmingham is the nucleus of the state’s largest metro population and economic center. The Magic City continues to evolve as a diverse urban center and leader in regional growth. Our strength as a medical center, emerging hub for tech start-ups and logistics center keeps Birmingham positioned for positive growth in the future,” Woodfin said.

So with the growth of Huntsville, comes the expansion of highways and roadways. 

Interstate 565 is the main freeway that goes into downtown Huntsville. The secondary highways include U.S. 231/U.S. 431 (Memorial Parkway) and Alabama State Highway 255 (Research Parkway/Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Freeway). They will experience a rapid boom.

The Rocket City will be ranked as No. 105 city in the United States. It is going to surpass Richmond, Virginia soon.

Arizona Dems Regret Picking Sinema!

Democrats in Arizona are seriously annoyed with this woman.

The Arizona Democratic Party formally censured white nationalist senator. 

Sen. Karen Sinema (D-AZ) and Sen. Karen Manchin (D-WV) joined the 50 obstructionists to reject the Democrats attempt to change the filibuster so they could pass Build Back Better and the John Lewis Voting Rights Act.

Sinema is the first openly bisexual white nationalist in the Senate. 

The Arizona Democrats said, "as a result of her failure to do whatever it takes to ensure the health of our democracy," the party said Saturday. The announcement came just days after Sinema opposed a change to the Senate rules that could have moved Democratic-backed voting rights legislation forward.

The impact may harm Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) who is up for reelection. He and Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-GA) both face a challenge to retain their seats. Thanks to Sinema and Manchin, Democrats have strong fears they could lose both chambers in the Midterms.

"I want to be clear, the Arizona Democratic Party is a diverse coalition with plenty of room for policy disagreements, however on the matter of the filibuster and the urgency to protect voting rights, we have been crystal clear," Arizona Democratic Party chairperson Raquel Terán said in a statement. "In the choice between an archaic legislative norm and protecting Arizonans' right to vote, we choose the latter, and we always will."

On Wednesday, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer initiated a vote on a rules change that would have allowed Democrats to pass the voting rights legislation with a simple majority of votes.

Sinema defended her vote, saying on Thursday that she maintained her "longstanding opposition to separate actions that would deepen our divisions and risk repeated radical reversals in federal policy, cementing uncertainty and further eroding confidence in our government."

"Tonight's votes must not be the end of our work to protect our democracy," Sinema said in a statement. "That goal requires all Americans everywhere to unite around sustained strategies in support of free, fair, and open elections in which every vote is fairly counted."

But President Joe Biden said he was "profoundly disappointed" in the outcome of the vote, and Vice President Kamala Harris said "Senators voted to preserve an arcane Senate procedure rather than secure that fundamental freedom." Senator Bernie Sanders said the two senators have "forced us to go through five months of discussions which have gotten absolutely nowhere." 

Sinema's press secretary Hannah Hurley issued a statement after Saturday's censure.

"During three terms in the U.S. House, and now in the Senate, Kyrsten has always promised Arizonans she would be an independent voice for the state -- not for either political party," it read. "She's delivered for Arizonans and has always been honest about where she stands."

900,000!

We're on pace to have 1 million Americans dead from the coronavirus.

We are tired.

I am tired of dealing with this pandemic. However, I am not tired of being safe. I am serious. We are dealing with millions of Americans who refuse to get vaccinated or follow mask and social distancing mandates. This weekend, they held a rally to protest mandates (of course, Let's Go Brandon). 

Once in a generation pandemic happens and folks act like this isn't a big deal. The unvaccinated have made it more dangerous for the vaccinated. 

The Supreme Court has blocked President Joe Biden's workplace mandates. The hospitals are overwhelmed with the unvaccinated who are stretching nurses and doctors to the brink.

Unemployment is at record levels but hiring is difficult because either workers are getting sick from the coronavirus or dying from the coronavirus. 

We have surpassed over 80 million confirmed cases. We are approaching something else.

The United States has surpassed another grim milestone in the coronavirus pandemic. As of right now, we have over 900,000 Americans dead from the COVID-19 delta and omicron variants.

We are surpassed the populations of Charlotte, San Jose, Columbus, Denver, Indianapolis, San Francisco, Portland and Boston.

In five weeks we will surpass 1 million.

The stubbornness of Americans. This pandemic has been ongoing and it could have ended if one president took the threat seriously. The first known coronavirus case happened on January 20, 2020.

The former president failed to take the threat seriously. He claimed that he did not want to panic the country. He managed to let the coronavirus spread from coast to coast. 

The first known case was in Washington. 

Washed Up 45 continues to believe that his travel ban worked and it saved lives. The former president claims that stopping travelers from China saved lives. Unfortunately he did not stop global travel. Italy became the coronavirus hot spot and travelers from the European Union countries and Great Britain were coming to the United States. 

Then an outbreak in New York City, Miami, Los Angeles and Seattle. 

The World Health Organization confirmed a pandemic on March 11, 2020. The former president declared a pandemic on March 13. 

Since the declaration, the world is still dealing with this. The former president was demanding the country open up. Many Republican governors heard the call and decided to prematurely open up their states despite the coronavirus spreading from coast to coast. Far-right agitators have spread misinformation throughout the pandemic.

The former president promoted controversial treatments and remedies that the CDC and medical officials warn are not safe.

The pandemic doomed Washed Up 45. 

Now as Biden entered the office, we're still in a pandemic. We are dealing with a supply shortage that started when the former president imposed tariffs on China and the European Union, an insurrection, Congress still more partisan than ever and a fickle public who want things done now instead of taking the time to realize that patience is needed.

The far-right and far-left have made life more difficult in the country. White nationalism is on the rise.

Hate towards people of color, Muslims, Jews and immigrants is at an all time high.

Now school boards, medical doctors and public officials are facing death threats because of extremism.

The omicron variant is more contagious, but is considered less serious. Cases of breakthrough infections are increasing. Thanks to those who refuse to get vaccinated, the coronavirus is mutating and its becoming more infectious. Those who got vaccinated are getting mild symptoms.

Those who are unvaccinated are either experiencing mild to severe symptoms. They are overwhelming the hospitals. 

The coronavirus does not care about your protests.

If only Americans got vaccinated, we would have been back to normal. Alas, they wanna fuck around and now they're going to find out. Matter of fact, we all are going to find out. 

Of course, there's folks who are fully vaccinated but end up getting the coronavirus. As with vaccines, nothing is 100%. The vaccines are capable of preventing the coronavirus. At best, it's a 94% prevention rate which means 1 out of 500 could be infected even if they're vaccinated.

President Joe Biden had hopes that Americans would take this shit seriously. Unfortunately, Republicans so fucking eager to return to power will keep Americans fixated on the culture wars. Now vaccinations are part of this culture war.

But those fighting the culture war by not vaccinating, not wearing face mask in public, not following protocols, and deliberately ignoring federal and international rules when traveling are going to be the first casualties of the war. 

With this pandemic mostly affecting states where Republican governors are, we may have to return to wearing facial protection and cutting back services to reduce the spread of the coronavirus.

We came so far only  have a bunch of selfish idiots set it back. Just because they hate President Joe Biden.

The Republicans are so devoted to destroying Biden and the country for what....to regain power.

Pathetic.

The coronavirus doesn't care about your age, race, gender, sexuality, nationality, religion, politics, economic or social standings. It doesn't care about your business, your performances, your personal finances and travel. It doesn't care about the funerals, the birthday parties, the weddings, the vacations, the events and your graduations. It doesn't care about anything. It's a living organism that causes mild symptoms that include: fever, sore throats, chills, respiratory issues, loss of taste or smell and other unknown symptoms. If you have a weak immune system or health issues, your risk increases.

Death does happen to at least 40% of those who are affected by COVID-19. 

If you're not vaccinated, your chances of death increases to 48%.

Healthy people can die from this. Take this seriously. You only have one life!

Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick Joins The House!

A new face to Congress.

The newly sworn lawmaker to the represent Florida's 20th Congressional District is now official. 

Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (D-FL) is the newest member of the Florida congressional delegation. She is a Democrat. Cherfilus-McCormick won the Florida special election to fill the seat vacated by Alcee Hastings, who passed away in 2021.

She was born in Brooklyn, New York to parents from Haiti. She grew up in Queens. She moved to Florida when she was 13. She is a Bachelor of Arts in political science and government from Howard University.

She has a Juris Doctor from the St. Thomas University of Law.

She was endorsed by Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO), Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI). She bested Dale Holness, the Broward County commissioner in a Democratic primary where she won by five votes. She defeated a far-right Karen in the general.

Sheila with her husband and two children celebrating her win.

The race in Florida was apparently a sleeper. The main focus was on the Ohio Democratic special primary race between Shontel Brown and Nina Turner.

Turner, a former Ohio state senator and leftist agitator who worked on Bernie Sanders' two failed bids for the president became the focus of a bitter campaign. The leftists were attacking Brown for being in the pockets of "special interests" and being an establishment vote. 

Brown would end up winning the nomination and later the general. She was sworn in November.

Turner's antics during the 2020 presidential race were memorable. Turner compared Joe Biden to "eating half-a-bowl of shit." Those comments stuck to her ass and her campaign was doomed.

To be quite clear, if Cherfilus-McCormick joins the Squad, we're in trouble. It's bad enough we have Bush, Ocasio-Cortez, Tlaib, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) and Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) bowing down to white leftists. Why do we need more of that?

Hopefully, she will be a lawmaker and not an activist.

What The Truck?

Macaque monkeys escape a truck.

Again, why do white people always treat wild animals like they're domesticated? 

I would never touch a wild animal. 

Alas, some people think that animals are timid when you're petting them. Nope.

A truck crash and four experimental primates escape, sounds like a movie script, right?

A truck carrying about 100 monkeys was involved in a crash Friday in Pennsylvania, state police said as authorities searched for at least three of the monkeys that appeared to have escaped the vehicle.

The truck carrying the animals crashed with a dump truck in the afternoon in Montour County, Pennsylvania State Police Trooper Andrea Pelachick told the Daily Item.

The two drivers involved in the crash were not injured but a passenger in one of the vehicles was transported to a local hospital with minor injuries, according to the police report from the crash. The police report noted that officials from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention were at the scene to assist with the response.

State troopers said Saturday that three of the monkeys had been found with the help of multiple agencies, but one of the monkeys remained on the loose. The troopers urged members of the public to keep their distance and immediately call 911 if spotting the monkey.

Pennsylvania State Troopers warn residents to not engage with the primates.

"We are asking that no one attempt to look for or capture the animal. Anyone who sees or locates the monkey is asked not to approach, attempt to catch, or come in contact with the monkey. Please call 911 immediately," the troopers tweeted.

The truck had been on its way to a lab, Pelachick said.

Authorities have asked residents who might see the monkeys to call state police at 570-524-2662.

It was unclear if any people or animals were injured in the crash.

The troopers did not explain what dangers the monkeys pose if encountered by the public.

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, an organization that advocates for animal rights, released a statement after the crash noting that the long-tailed macaque monkeys were on their way to a CDC-approved quarantine facility in Florida after arriving in the United States from Mauritius.

"Because these 100 long-tailed macaque monkeys were headed to a laboratory to be caged, tormented, and killed, they were already in danger-but now the public is, too," the statement from PETA reads.

"The four who got away -- including one who is still missing -- are undoubtedly terrified and likely injured, and they may be harboring viruses that are transmissible to humans. There is no way to ensure that monkeys are virus-free."

The long-tailed macaque monkeys, also known as cynomolgus monkeys, are often used in scientific research, The New York Times noted, and were in high demand during the COVID-19 pandemic for researching vaccines.

Danville sits on the Susquehanna River and is located 40 miles from Scranton.

I've said it before and I stand by what I say: "Wild animals are......well you know!"

If you want to be a thrill seeker, you might want to get life insurance.

Be warned, there will be disturbing video and images.

Intel To Build Plant In Columbus!

The design landscape for Intel's largest processing plant locating to Columbus, Ohio.

The Intel Corporation announced they will build a facility in the Columbus suburb of New Albany, a city located in Franklin and Licking County, Ohio. The governor of the state, its two senators and two lawmakers representing Columbus were there to celebrate the announcement.

Ohio beats out California, Texas and North Carolina. These three states are known for technological innovation. 

President Joe Biden will get credit for this. However, the Republicans will rewrite history and claim Washed Up 45 or the state's governor getting the credit. 

The 1,000-acre location will initially play host to two chip factories, and is set to directly employ at least 3,000 people and “tens of thousands” more across suppliers and partners. Construction is reportedly due to kick off this year, with the site becoming operational in 2025.

In an interview with Time, Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger said the company expects the site to become “the largest silicon manufacturing location on the planet,” adding that it could eventually expand to 2,000 acres with eight fabs. After helping to establish Silicon Valley, Gelsinger said the new site could become “the Silicon Heartland.” Intel plans to invest up to $100 billion in the site over the next decade, as well as around $100 million in partnership with Ohio universities, colleges, and the US National Science Foundation to foster new talent.

Intel already has U.S. factories across several states including Oregon, New Mexico, and Arizona. Ohio represents its first manufacturing expansion into a new state in over 40 years, the New York Times reports. Intel has been aggressively ramping up its investments in manufacturing capacity under its new CEO, who’s already announced a $20 billion expansion of the company’s existing Arizona complex.

Biden promises jobs to America's heartland. He worked with Intel CEO to get Ohio the facility built.

Expanding into a state without an existing chip manufacturing presence brings challenges, like acquiring the correct permits, raw materials and supplies, and production machines, the NYT notes. But New Albany is known for its inexpensive land, and any manufacturing plant could benefit from engineering graduates at nearby Ohio State University.

Intel’s search for its new manufacturing hub reportedly saw states competing for the huge economic opportunity a new plant represents. Time reports that at least one other state offered more subsidies, but Ohio was a better regulatory fit and Intel didn’t want to displace current residents. It’s a marked contrast from Amazon’s hyper-competitive bidding process that eventually awarded a second HQ to New York, which it shelved following backlash from residents and local lawmakers.

The announcement comes as the world continues to grapple with an acute shortage of computer chips that has impacted everyone from games console manufacturers to automakers. The shortage has shed light on the decades-long shift of chip manufacturing from the U.S. and Europe to Asian countries, particularly Taiwan where Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) in headquartered. To help reverse the shift, the U.S. Senate approved a $52 billion subsidy package for the chip industry last June which would offer grants to companies building new US factories, but it is yet to pass through the House.

Ohio governor DeWine celebrates Intel being built in the state.

Intel’s competitors TSMC and Samsung have announced new US-based manufacturing investments of their own in Arizona and Texas, respectively. But in some officials’ eyes, Intel has the advantage of being a homegrown U.S. company, while TSMC’s proximity to China has worried Pentagon officials.

“Today’s investment marks another significant way Intel is leading the effort to restore U.S. semiconductor manufacturing leadership,” said Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger in a statement. “Intel’s actions will help build a more resilient supply chain and ensure reliable access to advanced semiconductors for years to come. Intel is bringing leading capability and capacity back to the United States to strengthen the global semiconductor industry.”
