Time to Change Our Language.. It is time to stop blaming “Covid” for breaking the economy, destroying businesses and livelihoods, and wreaking untold havoc upon families. It was not “Covid” that did this. It was not even the Chinese. It was our government. The government has conditioned us to blame the impersonal “Covid” for the destruction it wrought upon our businesses and families. We need to change the discussion by using the proper language to fix the blame where it belongs. Good generals can win a battle by picking the terrain upon which they fight. At Waterloo, Wellington forced Napoleon...

Four years ago, government officials told us, "Stay home!" We have "15 days to slow the spread." Days turned into months and then years, while officials chipped away at our freedoms. I have long been wary of politicians, but even I was surprised at how authoritarian many were eager to be. Some demanded police to go after people surfing. They took down the rims of basketball hoops. Children's playgrounds were taped up like crime scenes. They told people in rural Utah and Wyoming to stay in their homes. In the name of safety, politicians did many things that diminished our...

~Laura Rosen Cohen started calling the modified limited hangout of the Covid insanity the "Great Walkbackening" over three years ago. And we still see examples of that - such as, just the other day, Francis Collins, former Director of the US National Institutes of Health (and acclaimed Judy Garland impersonator): Oh. So the "public health mindset" was a "mistake". Good to know - although one can't help noticing that this is somewhat at odds with his Judy Garland routine, where he assured us that we'd all "thank the people in science that brought the pandemic's end": Collins's mea-sorta-culpa on behalf...

President Trump made clear to the Covid tyrants that “WE WILL NOT COMPLY!” with Biden's planned lockdowns and mandates first exposed by Infowars. Former President Donald Trump responded to Alex Jones’ exclusive report revealing the Biden regime is gearing up for new COVID restrictions, declaring that this time “WE WILL NOT COMPLY!” “The left-wing lunatics are trying very hard to bring back COVID lockdowns and mandates with all of their sudden fear mongering about the new variants that are coming. Gee whiz, you know what else is coming? An election,” Trump said in a statement on Wednesday.

If the Biden regime is planning a reprise of the lockdowns and mRNA vax campaigns, it is much less certain how the American people will react. Some will unthinkingly comply. But I am fairly confident that a sizable majority of us will not. There are ominous signs that the Biden administration is gearing up for another lockdown in the coming months. Border Patrol and TSA whistleblowers are saying that COVID restrictions will be going back into place as early as September. Agencies have reportedly started stocking up on COVID-19 equipment, as well as hiring “consultants” to help enforce pandemic-era “safety...

Eris – the most recent “Covid variant” – is supposedly causing spikes in cases all over the world. The story goes that England, Ireland and US are all being hit hard, it’s reached Australia too. In yet another blow to the “BRICS will save us” crowd, India and China are playing along. “Scientists” are even clamoring for the return of masks. We’ve already been over everything you need to know about “Eris” here. Long story short, “Covid” is just another made up name for the flu, and the “variants” are coats of paint they slap on the narrative to try...

Calvary Chapel in San Jose, Calif., is a large evangelical church that defied state and local orders to mask up during services and maintain “social distancing.” Of course, we now know that mask-wearing was about as effective against spreading COVID-19 as wearing a necklace of newt entrails and “social distancing” was a bad joke. But it’s not the science. It’s that the church defied authorities. So now Calvary must pay the state of California $1.2 million in fines because they got bureaucrats mad at them. So there. Is there anyone who doesn’t think $1.2 million for not wearing masks is...

Biden on Monday signed a Republican-authored bill terminating the national emergency over the COVID-19 pandemic, a day before the White House had said the president would unilaterally end national emergency declarations related to the pandemic. The White House had opposed the GOP-proposed measure, which gained some bipartisan support in Congress, even though the White House planned to end emergency declarations on May 11. The White House had said the legislation would "create wide-ranging chaos and uncertainty throughout the health care system — for states, for hospitals and doctors' offices, and, most importantly, for tens of millions of Americans." End of...

Facemasks could potentially return as L.A. County continues seeing a troubling uptick in respiratory illness including COVID-19, two new variants and RSV infections among children.

I mean those types of things should be decided as a public health issue by the public health organizations, in this case the CDC. This is a public health matter, not a judicial matter."
