In a late night vote on Tuesday, the US Senate passed an amendment that prohibits federal funds from going to pre-K programs and K-12 schools that teach critical race theory. Every single Democrat, except one - West Virginia senator Joe Manchin - voted against the legislation, which passed 50-49.

The measure was sponsored by Arkansas Senator Tom Cotton, who has been one of the leaders in the fight against the anti-American propaganda for over a year. Its passage effectively bans CRT from being taught in schools until after 12th grade, when students are free to pay for the indoctrination themselves.

Clif High uses something he calls "Predictive Linguistics" and computer programs to sort through billions of bits of information on the Internet to predict future trends and events. High is an Internet data mining expert who has many well-documented correct predictions. His latest correct prediction was made last month here on USAWatchdog when he said the Biden door knocking campaign to harass people to take the CV19 injection would be "short lived" and "not to worry about it." Sure enough, the door knocking campaign unceremoniously stopped, and the Biden Administration has morphed this into the "get vaxed or get fired" campaign. What does High say now? "Again, this is short lived, and it is a propaganda campaign and not a legal move. They don't have the legal authority to do what they are trying to do. What they are attempting to do is scare as many of the herd past that point of hesitancy before the whole thing is shut down," says Clif High.

What about the FDA fast track approval for the CV19 Vax? The Biden Administration has been saying the CV19 vax will go from "Emergency Use Authorization" (experimental) to FDA approved even with more reported deaths than all vaccinations combined. High says don't buy this. The CV19 jabs will never be approved. Clif explains, "There are legal prohibitions with an Emergency Use Authorization product. This is not approved by the FDA. As much as they are talking about it, I don't think it will ever be approved by the FDA. I don't think events will get that far for a lot of different reasons. . . . This is a bluster. They are doing exactly what they did with the 'get vaxed or get fired' as they did with the 'door to door' campaign. This I know because of the nature of the linguistics that I run at its core for the emotional tension value of the data. I can tell you right now there is more mass and more energy in words that are anti-Covid vax than there are words and energy that are pro-Covid vax. This is a big problem for the mainstream media (MSM) as well as for the Biden regime. They probably are aware of what I am saying, and they realize they are underwater. If you polled, you would find that Covid is failing in the poll, and the vax is failing in the poll if you could get an accurate poll number. . . . This is a move of desperation on their part and not a move of strength."

When did the world become insane? What is the reason for it? Big Brother? Depopulation? Or people in love with control? I don't know and it's driving me nuts. But I've decided I'm tired of complaining about it to my friends and family and I'm willing to put my name on the line. If the woke culture wants to ruin me for speaking the truth, I guess I might as well just get it over with now.

I have been a physician for 24 years, a practicing ENT for 19 years. I have never before seen the medical establishment just stop thinking. Insanity is the new rule, and common sense cannot even be discussed.

From the beginning, 15 days to flatten the curve, I was shocked. We had never done this before, but perhaps this virus was really bad, so I gave the government the benefit of the doubt.

Then came Fauci. He initially said social distancing didn't work, and masks were largely ineffective. But by late March, he pronounced both masking and social distancing necessary. Weird...red flag. But what really hit me was that he went on to say people should use Tinder and Grindr at their own discretion. What? How do you socially distance that? So now I am alarmed.

My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell has spent $17 million of his own money documenting and uncovering what he calls nationwide election fraud that happened in the November 3, 2020 election. This does not count all the money he has lost being kicked out of national chains selling his products. Lindell says, "I don't care how much money it costs because if we don't get the election fraud stopped, I won't have a business anyway." In Lindell's ongoing attempt to shine a light on the fraud is his upcoming "Cyber Symposium." It's a 72 hour non-stop marathon next week August 10 - 12 on FrankSpeech.com.

There's a lot on the line, and Lindell explains,

"This has been the biggest cover-up in history for the biggest crime ever. How did they disguise it? Let's just look at Wisconsin and Michigan. All those mail-in votes went to Biden. That's a lie. The mail-in votes were counted on the morning of the 3rd. They were the first votes counted. . . . In Pennsylvania . . . they added 700,000 to the mail-in votes. We checked with the U.S. Post office over there, and none of them went through the Post Office. They were able to manipulate all this with the machines and the computers. We are going to show all of that. It's a miracle that they got this to me. We have all the data, and not just some. I have done this for months going over all this with lawyers and cyber experts."

Extra Australian military personnel may be called in to ensure compliance with lockdown rules in Sydney, the New South Wales state government said on Thursday, as the highly infectious Delta coronavirus variant spreads into regional areas.

The move comes as Australia's capital, Canberra, 260km southwest of Sydney, announced a snap one-week lockdown from Thursday evening after reporting its first locally acquired case of Covid-19 in more than a year.


Australia is battling to get on top of the fast-moving Delta strain that has plunged two of its largest cities - Sydney and Melbourne - into hard lockdowns.

"We are making sure that we do not leave any stone unturned in relation to extra [military] resources," NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian said at a media conference in Sydney.

A January 6 political prisoner who was recently released from the D.C. jail, said that he was not allowed to shave or get a haircut unless he took the COVID vaccine.

Jerrod Sessler, a congressional candidate from Washington, and his teenage son were shooting a video outside the "Deplorable Jail" about the Jan. 6 political prisoners, when Karl Dresch, a Michigan man who was detained for "parading" with an American flag inside the Capitol, approached him and agreed to be interviewed.

Sessler began by asking Dresch about the vaccine coercion, which the newly released prisoner had apparently mentioned before camera started rolling.

"One of the things you said was that they wouldn't let you get a shave or get a haircut unless you took the vaccine?" Sessler asked.

"Yes sir," the bearded Dresch replied.

The requirement appears to be an abuse of the Constitution since the experimental vaccines are approved for emergency use only. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that incarcerated or detained people living in correctional and detention facilities get vaccinated against COVID-19, but it has not been mandated, and shouldn't be coerced.

Dresch told Sessler that he refused to get vaccinated.

A tourist helicopter with 16 people on board plunged into a deep volcanic crater lake on the Kamchatka Peninsula in Russia's far east on Thursday.

Rescuers were searching in the lake for up to eight people missing, officials said, while at least eight others reportedly survived.

The helicopter crashed in the Kronotsky Nature Reserve, and the regional administration said workers were searching for survivors in Kurile Lake, which was formed in a volcano caldera and crater.

Russia's Emergencies Ministry said 13 tourists and three crew members were aboard the Mi-8 helicopter and eight people survived, according to the state RIA Novosti news agency.

A bipartisan trio of senators introduced a bill that would rein in app stores of companies they said exert too much market control, including Apple Inc and Alphabet Inc's Google.

Democratic Senators Richard Blumenthal and Amy Klobuchar teamed up with Republican Senator Marsha Blackburn to sponsor the bill, which would bar big app stores from requiring app providers to use their payment system. It would also prohibit them from punishing apps that offer different prices or conditions through another app store or payment system.

"I found this predatory abuse of Apple and Google so deeply offensive on so many levels," Blumenthal said in an interview Wednesday. "Their power has reached a point where they are impacting the whole economy in stifling and strangling innovation."

Blumenthal said he expected companion legislation in the House of Representatives "very soon."

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott vowed on Wednesday to take any school or local government that defies his executive order barring mask mandates "to court" after he challenged a Dallas mask order.

Abbott, along with state Attorney General Ken Paxton, petitioned the 5th Court of Appeals in an attempt to block a district judge ruling that allowed the state's second-largest school district to require masks.

Earlier in the day, Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins ordered that all schools, childcare centers and businesses in the county must require face coverings, after a district judge granted him temporary powers to supersede a previous order by the governor. Abbott and Paxton argued the mandate violated the governor's executive order that banned local governments from implementing mask regulations, despite the recent jump in coronavirus cases. Paxton stated:

"Attention-grabbing judges and mayors have defied executive orders before, when the pandemic first started, and the courts ruled on our side - the law. I'm confident the outcomes to any suits will side with liberty and individual choice, not mandates and government overreach."

Chicago's Democrat Mayor Lori Lightfoot has agreed to boost police funding after tragedy struck her city's police department. Following hundreds of police officers' resignations in the Windy City and one officer recently murdered, Lightfoot said at a press conference on Wednesday that she promises to increase police funding in 2022.

On Saturday, 29-year-old Chicago police officer Ella French was shot during a traffic stop and later died from her wounds. Her partner was also shot and hospitalized with his condition remaining unknown.

Following the tragic incident, Mayor Lightfoot went to the hospital where the wounded officers were taken. However, police officers visiting their colleagues reportedly turned their backs on the far-left lawmaker who previously proposed a mass cut to the department's budget.
