A Doctor’s View About the New mRNA Vaccines
Pfizer and Moderna were the first COVID-19 vaccines to be approved. Both use a new technology called mRNA vaccine, which has never been broadly given to a human population to prevent any disease.
Let that sink in for a moment.
All previous vaccines take a weakened virus or a piece of the virus and inject it into humans to induce an immune response sufficient to prevent a disease. Pfizer’s and Moderna’s vaccines inject mRNA, which is a protein code that instructs the body to make a part of COVID-19’s spike protein that will then induce an immune response.

Aim of Impeachment Was to Paint All Trump Voters as Criminals: Rep. Mike Johnson
Rep. Mike Johnson (R-La.) says Democrats used the impeachment of former President Donald Trump as a tool to paint all of his supporters with the brush of Capitol breach-related criminality. Johnson told Breitbart News in an interview on Feb. 14 that the ultimate aim of impeaching Trump a second time was to associate the 75 million Americans who voted for him with those individuals who on Jan. 6 broke the law.
“They really wanted to use impeachment as a vehicle because they wanted to equate all those tens of millions of Trump’s voters and all of his supporters and everybody who came to the rally, they wanted to equate all of those people with the couple hundred criminals who came in and ransacked the Capitol,” Johnson told the outlet.

Completely Biased ‘Fact Checkers’ Are Now Tools to Disparage and Discredit Conservative Thought
‘Fact-checkers’ are not fact-checkers they are just another tool used to slander and disparage conservative thought — period. Remember, with liberals, it’s all about power.
We at the Gateway Pundit (TGP) have faced so many ‘fact checks’ on our articles it’s become comical. The bigger the story, the more hits we get the more attention from ‘fact-checkers’. But these individuals who represent these firms are not interested in the truth. Their actions show it. Their purpose is to slander, disparage and discourage conservative, God-loving, and America-loving thought. These people ultimately hate free speech and the USA.

100 Percent Fed Up reports — Republican lawmakers who supported President Trump’s impeachment are dealing with their decisions to side with unhinged Democrats, whose only goal was to prevent Trump from ever running for President again. Traitors like Rep. Liz Cheney are facing censure from the Republican Party in her home state of Wyoming, while others are like Rep Adam Kinzinger, the young Republican Representative from Illinois is facing backlash from his own family.
Kinzinger, who was first elected to the United States Congress during Barack Obama’s first term as president, recently voted to impeach Trump; he also voted to remove the popular, pro-Trump, freshman Rep. Majorie Taylor-Greene (R-GA) from all of her committee assignments.
Kinzinger took his dislike for Trump to a whole new level when he announced last week that he’d formed a new PAC to challenge Republicans who still support Trump.

Study: Long-Term Mask Use May Contribute to Advanced Stage Lung Cancer
A recent study in the journal Cancer Discovery found that inhalation of harmful microbes can contribute to advanced stage lung cancer in adults. Long-term use of face masks may help breed these dangerous pathogens.
Microbiologists agree that frequent mask wearing creates a moist environment in which microbes are allowed to grow and proliferate before entering the lungs. Those foreign microbes then travel down the trachea and into two tubes called the bronchi until they reach small air sacks covered in blood vessels called alveoli.

Trump Said Mitch McConnell Has Family Ties to China. Here’s What They Are:
National File was the first independent media outlet to document McConnell’s ties to China in 2020
One of the most noteworthy observations President Trump made in the statement is that “McConnell has no credibility on China because of his family’s substantial Chinese business holdings,” adding that the Senate Minority Leader “does nothing on this tremendous economic and military threat.”
National File reported on McConnell’s family ties to the People’s Republic of China in some detail in 2020, covering the various anomalies associated with McConnell’s marriage into the Chao family.
Most notably, McConnell’s wife, Elaine Chao, is the daughter of shipping magnates James and Ruth Chao and the sister of businesswoman Angela Chao, who was appointed to a non-executive position on the Bank of China’s board of directors in 2016.
Following the death of Ruth Chao, McConnell’s federal disclosure jumped from $3 million to $33 million over a two-year span, and he has also received over $1 million in financial contributions from Elaine Chao’s family.

A 24-hour standoff between police and Spanish rapper Pablo Hasél ended Tuesday when anti-riot officers arrested the artist shortly after dawn and escorted him out of Lleida University’s rectorate building. He and more than 50 supporters locked themselves inside the university in Spain’s northeastern Catalonia region at midday on Monday.

I once had the honor of speaking with Rush Limbaugh on air many years ago when I was a “yout”. I grew up listening to Rush daily in my most formative years in my early teens. I believe my father found his show within several months of it first airing, and we listened daily on KFBK AM 1530 which was his original Sacramento station before he went national and eventually moved to NYC. Since I was still in school, I missed most of his shows during the school year but managed to listen on vacations and Saturday mornings when KFBK would replay a three hour highlight of his best moments on air from the previous week.
Back then, to be openly conservative, especially in middle and high school in Northern California was to definitely be a part of the counterculture, an act of nonconformity on par with what having long hair and smoking pot would have been in my parents youth. I used to troll (before it had a name) my teachers in high school with my Rush Limbaugh shirts, books, and conservative topics for class assignments. My mom took me to one of the original “Rush Rooms” that soon started popping up so office workers could get their fix openly during their lunch breaks. Before Rush I was not political at all and never really thought about such things as a middle school student, but after discovering him it is impossible to unsee what he made visible. To those later generations who grew up without listening to him or maybe always knew of him as some vile on air demon defined by the left, it is difficult to comprehend what times for those with conservative tendencies were like pre-Rush. In significance for modern conservatism and in laying the groundwork for Trump, populism, and a resurgent nationalism, Rush Limbaugh is on par with Reagan or a Churchill or Theodore Roosevelt. His kind of brilliance and impact is in the words of Steve Bannon “not once in a generation but once in a century”. Even though I did not know him personally, and my one claim to fame was a five minute conversation with him on air in my early teens, I feel as though a close family friend or relative has passed.
Vaya con Dios, Mr Limbaugh
I used to be those who believed those who said he was a vile demagogue. Now I am sorry I never listened. Is there any place that has preserved his best moments online?
Thank you for this.
I do not know of any sites for certain that have preserved his broadcasts. I know that he had a subscription service that allowed exclusive content for subscribers and I think his old shows were accessible as well. In this era of deplatforming and un-personing for the slightest infraction against the woke masters of the universe, I think it would be difficult to find his shows outside of very independent sources.
If you do find any shows, his early material from his KFBK years and early New York years are the best in my opinion. He didn’t have as many powerful enemies back then and was free to say much more controversial things than in the later years of his show.

Another nutjob converts to Islam. What seems to be the common denominator in these conversions?
Thank you Elena for sharing that Putin is being inclusive of all ethnicities that are part of Russia. We in the West (the ones who are not brainwashed) know he is a nationalist who fiercely loves his country and is opposed to the New World Order.
As he said:
“Cave nationalism, the slogan of which “Russia is only for Russians” only harms the Russians, only harms Russia and promotes its swing from within. And we should not allow this. Of course, we must ensure that the culture of each nation, its history, the origins of each nation are revered, developed and respected in our country,” Putin said.
Further (as translated) : “The president also said that the Russian people in Russia is a state-forming, it is the basis of the country. “And in this sense, of course, the Russian man and the Russian people are interested in preserving the country, where it is the main component of the force. In order to preserve Russia, which is multi-ethnic and multi-religious, so that the representative of every ethnic group, even the smallest, felt that it is his homeland, he does not have another,” the president added.
Now people with their own “culture” come to us en masse: the Kirghiz, who arrange “kökbörü” (Tearing a live goat apart) at Moscow hippodromes, and also kidnap women for marriage – this is their folk tradition. Tajiks are drug carriers and who only in the last century were excommunicated from the “bacha-bazi” culture, but did not marry cousins.
Chechens have a tradition of chopping off kafir heads. …
