The implementation of vaccine mandates at one of the largest institutions in the red state of Texas has raised concerns over the diminishing state of health freedom while a law that would provide Texans with vaccine choice remains stalled by lawmakers. The Baylor College of Medicine (BCM), a medical school and research center in Houston, Texas, announced last week that it will mandate the latest COVID booster shot for its students, faculty, and employees. “An updated Covid vaccine has been approved by the FDA and is now available," the Sept. 28 statement from the school reads. "A single dose is...

Al Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahri has called on Muslims to attack U.S., European, Israeli and Russian targets in a speech on the 18th anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks. SITE Intelligence Group reports that in a video released by the militant group, Zawahri also criticizes "backtrackers" from jihad, referring to former jihadis who changed their views in prison and called the 9/11 attacks unacceptable because innocent civilians were harmed. Zawahri, an Egyptian, became leader of al Qaeda following the 2011 killing of Osama bin Laden in Abbottabad, Pakistan by U.S. Navy SEALS. He is believed to be hiding somewhere in...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPfrtngwzjY Written right after hearing fireman Mike Moran, at the Concert for New York, tell Osama bin Laden to "Kiss my royal Irish ass." Chris Storc saw it, worked with me to tweek it, and he got together the group to sing it. The tune was sent to Hannity, he played it on the air, and said he had 5,000 requests for it. Mike lost his older brother, Battalion Commander and FReeper John Moran on 9/11. I had the pleasure of meeting Mike and some FReepers at a New York Irish pub a year or so later to hoist a...

"Jon Corzine STOLE the customer cash at MF Global. Knowing Jon Corzine, and knowing the abject lawlessness and contempt for humanity of the Marxist Obama regime and its cronies, this is not really a surprise."

BCM Has Ceased Operations (source) Posted by Ann Barnhardt - November 17, AD 2011 10:27 AM MST Dear Clients, Industry Colleagues and Friends of Barnhardt Capital Management, It is with regret and unflinching moral certainty that I announce that Barnhardt Capital Management has ceased operations. After six years of operating as an independent introducing brokerage, and eight years of employment as a broker before that, I found myself, this morning, for the first time since I was 20 years old, watching the futures and options markets open not as a participant, but as a mere spectator.

I continue to be amazed at how many people in this culture, and most especially those on the “right”, seem to have completely and totally psychologically surrendered to the government. These are the phrases I keep hearing: ....[Part 2 follows right below Part 1].

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: I just read at ZeroHedge.com that there is a hedge fund that just shut down today. I'm not gonna mention the hedge fund 'cause I want to get confirmation on this, but the guy shuts down his hedge fund, he said, "I can't continue in good conscience to take clients' money and invest it in a rigged market." He said that this thing with Corzine's company, people do not know the real importance of what happened. "A firm, led by a crony of the Obama regime, stole all of the non-margined cash held by customers of his...

Firefighter With Law Degree John Moran was a Fire Department battalion chief and his cousin Joseph Crowley was a congressman. But when they united their voices that last Saturday afternoon, at the block party in the Rockaways -- well, "The Star of the County Down" never sounded sweeter. At 42, Chief Moran was a kayaking, tin- whistle-playing firefighter with a law degree. But he never put himself before others.

Posted on 09/10/2008 10:14:12 PM PDT by doug from upland FOR 9/11 - THE BALLAD OF MIKE MORAN Many of you lost personal friends on that horrific day. FReepers lost some they knew, but never personally met. We surely miss Battalion Commander John Moran and Barbara Olson. I wrote a parody for Barbara that she saw and commented here on FR that she had posted it on her refrigerator.

I remember BCM.

In memory of FReeper John Moran, one of the many heroes we lost on 9/11. Written for our friend, Mike Moran. THE BALLAD OF MIKE MORAN

By MICHELE McPHEE and RICHARD WEIR Daily News Staff Writers fter losing her husband in the World Trade Center and nearly losing her home when Flight 587 crashed in the Rockaways, Kimberly Moran was headed for a Christmas vacation yesterday when tragedy almost struck again.
