Judge rules FDA can't keep vaccine docs secret 'until 2096'

A federal judge said the drug regulator must radically accelerate its release of hundreds of thousands of files on the Pfizer jab.

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has been ordered to hasten the publication of documents related to Pfizer's coronavirus vaccine by more than one-hundred-fold, after the agency claimed the disclosure would take decades.

In a ruling on Thursday, District Judge Mark Pittman rejected previous arguments from the FDA after it said it might take decades, possibly until 2096, to complete the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request. Though the agency said it could only process and publish around 500 pages each month, Pittman said it would have to pick up the pace - instead ordering it to put out 55,000 pages in the same time span.

Comment: You can't approve a vaccine in 108 days and then turn around and say it will take you "decades" to release the information that led to the approval in the first place. Releasing the information to the public should be a faster process than reviewing it. Unless, of course, they didn't read the information in the first place and only rubber-stamped the vaccine approval regardless.

UK's school pupils refusing to wear masks in class, take lateral flow tests, research shows policy provides 'insufficient' benefit & evidence of harm

school mask class
The findings came as pupils are returning to class this week after the Christmas break, with new advice for secondary school and college students in England to wear face coverings in classrooms. However, a number of children are refusing to do so, according to another education union
Schoolchildren are refusing to wear face masks in the classroom, a union official said as the Government's own study does not justify the policy.

Just five per cent of pupils at one school agreed to take a lateral flow test at the start of the term and wear a mask, according to Damien McNulty, a national executive member of the National Association of Schoolmasters Union of Women Teachers (NASUWT).

"Sadly, we have had reports in the last 24 hours of at least six secondary schools in the north-west of England where children, in huge numbers, are refusing to take lateral flow tests or to wear masks," Mr McNulty told the BBC.


Comment: Back in July, some children were exposing the unfounded hysteria by using the lateral flow tests on orange juice in order to obtain a positive result and get some time off school.


Comment: It's perhaps revealing that, for the most part, it seems those that are invested in the hysteria - adults - are blinded to all the detrimental effects of mask-wearing, and they're also willing to overlook the complete absence of any evidence of their efficacy.

Note that it was less than 2 months ago that the UK's teaching groups held a restriction-free awards ceremony, whilst at the same time they were enforcing mask wearing on children and, as winter approached, some schools were following government advice that classes be held with windows open 'to allow for reasonable ventilation, without freezing'; unsurprisingly this brazen hypocrisy drew widespread condemnation from parents:

Podcast host Tim Pool 'swatted' during live show

tim pool swatted
The dangerous prank known as 'swatting' has led to several deaths in recent years.

Journalist and podcast host Tim Pool had his show interrupted by raiding police officers this week after someone filed a false report claiming two people had been shot at the studio.

During the middle of 'Timcast IRL' show on Thursday, a concerned-looking Pool suddenly announced that "cops [had] just walked in." After briefly leaving his desk to deal with the situation, Pool returned to explain what had happened.

Russian MP calls for 'inhuman' child rapists to be sent to Arctic penal colony for life following horrific child kidnap, rape & murder case

kidnap
Distressing footage shows the moment two men in Russia snatched a five-year-old girl and carried her through the snow and past unaware members of the public
Russia is to toughen its child sex laws this month to automatically jail repeat paedophiles for life in harsh polar prisons.

Monsters who sexually abuse children should serve their sentences in hard labour penal colonies in the Arctic, where they could be forced to work in Siberian mines, the country's parliamentary speaker said.

The new legislation is being pushed through after a horrific case this week of a girl, five, who was abducted by a recidivist paedophile and his lover, then raped and stabbed to death.

Veronika Nikolayeva had been playing near her mother's workplace in Kostroma, and a video showed how she was snatched before being abused.

The helpless girl 'struggled and fought back' but passersby did not pay attention to her distress - and the men took her to their hostel.

Georgia opens investigation into possible illegal ballot harvesting in 2020 election

Secretary of State Raffensperger says subpoenas could be forthcoming.

Georgia authorities have launched an investigation into an allegation of systematic ballot harvesting during the state's 2020 general election and subsequent U.S. Senate runoff and may soon issue subpoenas to secure evidence, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger confirmed to Just the News.

Georgia law strictly prohibits third-party activists from picking up and delivering ballots on behalf of voters, a tactic called "harvesting" that liberal organizers have tried to get legalized in many battleground states without success. The U.S. Supreme Court this summer rejected Democrat efforts to overturn an Arizona law that outlawed harvesting in the battleground state.

Comment: More from The Gateway Pundit:
The leftist operatives were identified making numerous drops in the middle of the night in Georgia. They were filmed emptying their backpacks of ballots into the drop boxes in the middle of the night. Ballot harvesting is not legal in Georgia. This was criminal behavior caught on video!

True the Vote and one other organization have copies of the video and promised to release their findings.

Heather Mullins from Real Americas Voice later reported on the John Fredericks radio show that there is video that captures 240 ballot traffickers in Georgia. Each of the traffickers averaged 23-24 drops where they would empty backpacks into the ballot boxes.

This is completely illegal. No harvesting is allowed in Georgia.

This was a massive organized effort by the American left to commit fraud.

In September The Gateway Pundit spoke with Catherine Engelbrecht and her group True the Vote was behind this investigation. We also found out it involves SEVERAL STATES.

Catherine told us in the fall that she had important meetings coming up in Georgia. Apparently, the information reached worthless Never-Trump Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger.

Reportedly True The Vote was able to take cell phone ping data on a mass wide-scale and piece together that several people — suspected ballot harvesters — were making multiple trips to multiple drop boxes, raising potential legal questions in a number of these states. 242 in Georgia and around 200 in Arizona.

From there, the document continues, True The Vote gathered surveillance video on the drop boxes in Georgia and is attempting to gather similar such surveillance video from other states. The document states that True The Vote has obtained one full petabyte of surveillance footage on drop boxes — two million minutes of video — which it says is broken into 73,000 individual video files. The group is expected to begin releasing some of these videos, which purportedly show the same people going multiple times to the same drop boxes, in the coming weeks.
...
True the Vote is wise not to release the identity of the ballot traffickers to Georgia State Officials considering they certified a fraudulent election.

Most Democrats wrongly believe that vaccines provide more protection than natural immunity

US capitol senate
I've written before about people's skewed perceptions of the risks of Covid. Interestingly but perhaps not surprisingly, perceptions are more skewed among Democrats than they are among Republicans.

As recently as September of this year - that is, more than a year and a half into the pandemic - 41% of Democrats said the risk of hospitalisation if you're not vaccinated is at least 50%! (The true figure is at least ten times lower.)

A new survey reveals another fallacy that's widespread among Democrats. On 15-16th December, Rasmussen Reports put the following question to a representative sample of Americans:
Which is more effective in preventing COVID-19 — natural immunity from prior infection with the virus, or getting vaccinated against the virus? Or are both natural immunity and vaccination equally effective?

Comment: It's yet another testament to how effective the propaganda is (and also how partisan that propaganda is).

L.A. schools tried to mandate vaccines. Then they faced having to send 30,000 students home

Los Angeles Unified was supposed to show other school districts how to roll out an expansive Covid-19 vaccine mandate for students, but its about-face this month may instead have a chilling effect around the country.

In September, the nation's second-largest school district imposed strict vaccine requirements on children 12 and older, with almost no exemptions. The district blinked at the last minute, however, as community activists and Gov. Gavin Newsom questioned the idea of moving more than 30,000 unvaccinated students back into distance learning.

Other U.S. districts in blue states are scaling back previous student mandate ideas, too. School leaders in Portland, Ore., tabled discussion this fall amid vigorous pushback, while New York and Chicago have taken a wait-and-see approach. Not only are they wary of mandate critics, but they also question whether they should impose a requirement before the Food and Drug Administration fully approves vaccines for their students — a threshold Los Angeles Unified didn't wait for.

Comment: And how many parents went out and got their kids vaccinated because of this looming mandate? Any number over 0 means mission accomplished.

'You'd have to kill me first': Jordan Peterson slams Trudeau's call for booster shots

Popular Canadian psychologist and cultural commentator Jordan Peterson blasted Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's pre-Christmas message that said people should put COVID "booster" jabs on their "shopping" list.

On December 22, Trudeau had tweeted, "If you're taking care of some last-minute Christmas shopping this week, here's something else you can add to your list: a booster. If you're eligible for one but haven't gotten it yet, please, do so now. And if you don't have your first or second dose, now's the time to get it."

Peterson, who has had the jabs but has since regretted taking them, made clear he would not be getting a booster. He fired back at Trudeau's suggesting that a COVID jab should somehow be part of a shopping list.

"Up yours @JustinTrudeau. Seriously. You'd have to kill me first," tweeted Peterson on Christmas Eve in response to Trudeau's tweet.

Peterson admitted he made a "stupid" decision to get the COVID jabs because he thought doing so would mean the government would leave him "alone."

Comment: Good to see Peterson waking up!

The government's case for masks in classrooms accidentally reveals they're a terrible idea

school girl mask
The Government on Wednesday published the evidence informing its recent controversial decision to recommend all secondary school pupils wear face masks in classrooms.

The new document from the Department for Education (DfE) explains that the decision "has been taken on the recommendation of UKHSA and is based on a range of evidence". It says the Government has "balanced education and public health considerations, including the benefits in managing infection and transmission, against any educational and wider health and wellbeing impacts from the recommended use of face coverings".

While conceding that the "direct COVID-19 health risks to children and young people are very low" - and rejecting SAGE's advice to recommend masks in primary school classrooms (yes, really) - it claims that "the balance of risks for secondary classrooms has changed at this point in time, in accordance with the evolving evidence and the phase of the pandemic".

The document summarises its evidence as follows:
Face coverings can be effective in contributing to reducing transmission of COVID-19 in public and community settings. This is informed by a range of research, including randomised control trials, contact tracing studies, and observational studies - assessed most recently by UKHSA, described in a review conducted in November 2021. The review's conclusions were broadly in line with those of a previous Public Health England review; however, the addition of randomised control trials and substantially more individual-level observational studies increases the strength of the conclusions and strengthens the evidence for the effectiveness of face coverings in reducing the spread of COVID-19 in the community, through source control, wearer protection, and universal masking.

Alvin Bragg's psychotic policies are a gift to the GOP

The Republican Party needs to send Alvin Bragg a fruit basket — and do so every day for the next four years.

The newly sworn-in Manhattan district attorney has just made the largest in-kind contribution to the GOP in modern history in the form of the already-notorious memo he sent to his underlings announcing how his office would handle its caseload.

Simply put, Bragg's approach is to pretend crime isn't crime, that criminals aren't criminals and that punishing people for breaking the law is bad. Basically, unless someone murders someone else, Bragg is going to try to keep convicted criminals out of jail.

Perhaps I should go into the details of this document or offer some earnest arguments against Bragg's policy decision to downgrade felonies like armed robbery into misdemeanors — acts his office will then refuse to ask a judge to punish with "carceral" action.

I will forbear, though, because Bragg does not deserve to be engaged in this manner. This is psychotic policy, and you can't argue psychotics out of psychosis. It is the culmination of decades of bizarre theories that seek to explain away anti-social, harmful and violent behaviors by treating them as though they constitute a rational response to difficult life conditions.
