New legislation in Austria will create a central COVID-19 vaccination register to record all vaccinated and vaccine-exempt people, fining people who don't fall into either group as much as 3,600 euros, or $4,000 every three months.

The new measures will take effect on February 1. Austrian Health Minister Wolfgang Mueckstein said the vaccination register will be checked every three months, with the first cutoff date being March 15.

Government authorities will send letters to unvaccinated people who are unexempt at these three-month intervals reminding them to get the vaccine or a doctor-issued exemption by the next cutoff date. If they refuse, they will be fined until they comply.

While the law said fines could reach up to 3,600 euros per fine, the government said it would take people's finances into consideration. If people get vaccinated in the meantime, legal action will be dropped.

Mueckstein said people who are pregnant, have recovered from COVID-19 in the past six months and who can't get vaccinated due to medical conditions are exempt. People who fall into those groups will have to record their exemption on the vaccination register.


Comment: This requirement obligates a person to divulge personal medical information, trampling any right to medical privacy.

The Saudi man arrested in Paris over suspected links to the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi has been freed, after officials said it was a case of mistaken identity. The release was confirmed by French prosecution officials.

Prosecutors said checks had shown that a warrant issued by Turkey, which had triggered the arrest when the man's passport was scanned during border checks, did not apply to the man arrested at the airport. "Extensive checks on the identity of this person showed that the warrant did not apply to him ... he was released," the statement from the prosecutor's office said.

On Tuesday, France arrested the man at an airport as he was about to board a flight to Riyadh.

He was named as Khaled Aedh al-Otaibi, the same name as a former member of the Saudi Royal Guard listed in American and British sanctions documents, as well as UN-commissioned report as having been involved in Khashoggi's killing in Turkey.

French media reported that the mix-up was related to the fact that the detained man had an identical name to Al-Otaibi.

Mississippi public universities that were required to implement a coronavirus vaccine mandate under the Biden administration's order have rescinded the policy.

The University of Mississippi, Jackson State University and the University of Southern Mississippi told The Hill they lifted their coronavirus vaccine mandate after the Biden administration's order to require federal contractors be vaccinated was halted in court.

Mississippi State University told The Associated Press it has also gone forward with revoking the vaccine mandate due to the court's decision.

Biden's mandate made it so federal contractors had to be vaccinated by Jan. 4, but the order was halted in court nationwide on Wednesday.

The other public colleges in the state, Mississippi Valley State University, Delta State University, Alcorn State University and Mississippi University for Women, are not covered federal contractors and were not required to abide by Biden's order, a spokesperson for Mississippi Valley State University told The Hill.

Sources say Andrew Cuomo's top aide and Chris Cuomo plotted to discredit Fox News' Janice Dean over Covid criticism

Close allies of former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, including his top aide and his former CNN anchor brother, plotted to find ways to discredit Fox News meteorologist and host Janice Dean after she became one of the most vocal critics of the governor's handling of the coronavirus pandemic, according to people familiar with the matter.

Melissa DeRosa, who had served as secretary to the governor, was among the Cuomo aides who ripped Dean behind the scenes and sought to craft a public messaging strategy that would paint the Fox News personality as merely a right-wing commentator, people familiar with the effort told CNBC. Dean's criticism of Cuomo stemmed mainly from the 2020 deaths of her husband's parents, whom she said died of Covid in their elder-care facilities.

It remains unclear if DeRosa or Cuomo's team ever went ahead with initiating such a plan.

Guess what the 12 US cities with record murder rates all have in common?

A dozen US cities just broke records for annual homicides, a feat that should shake the political establishment to its very foundations. But because these cities are run by Democrats, the mainstream media has given them a pass.

A pandemic is tearing a path of pain and suffering across the American heartland, where the very bonds that hold communities together are being tested like never before. Yet this malignancy requires no microscope to witness. From Toledo, Ohio to Albuquerque, New Mexico, people are having their lives cut tragically short due to cold-blooded murders, oftentimes through the cold middleman of a firearm.

Twelve US cities just broke records this year for homicides, yet the bloody achievements carry a very distinctive footnote - they are all, without exception, run by Democrats.

A Navy commander has been fired from his job as the executive officer of a warship because he refused to get a COVID-19 vaccine as required and refused to be tested for the virus, Navy officials said Friday.

Cmdr. Lucian Kins was relieved of his duties Friday as second in command of the USS Winston Churchill, a destroyer, by Navy Capt. Ken Anderson, commander of Naval Surface Squadron 14. Officials said Kins was the first naval officer to be fired as a result of a vaccine refusal.

Comment: Apparently the military is proving unexpectedly rebellious about Biden's vaccine mandate. Something about defending the Constitution, maybe?

'Deplorable' until proven compliant: Kafka, social credit, & critical theory

The coming phase will involve the division of the awakened through the manipulation of trauma-bonding, empathy attachment, and altruism.

The new social credit system uses weaponised sociology and mass psychology such that the plutocratic ruling class can transform, with little disruption normally associated with the rotation of elites, into a post-financial technocracy. Therefore, the old social credit system of consumer credit, and likewise systems of law, become moribund. They are replaced by revolutionary methods of social control which a) uses a sinister trauma-bonded 'empathic-intuition' method, at the individual level, b) alongside pre-crime and permanent guilt as a systemic foundation, c) and the loss of the 6th Amendment's guarantee to know the crimes (and evidence) one is accused of.

While the concerned public is familiar with the material technologies in plans of technocrats through various leaked documents, the exposure of summits and societies dedicated to this nefarious cause, the dark anti-human agenda that guides these goes even beyond the understanding of the well-informed.

The response to the domination of transgender US college swimmer Lia Thomas proves that female athletes are facing a very real threat from male-born rivals. Suggesting anything otherwise is downright dangerous.

Competing in a debut season as a member of the women's team at the University of Pennsylvania, trans swimmer Thomas has proceeded to blow her rivals out of the water.

A host of records have tumbled. In one particularly embarrassing episode, the 22-year-old former man beat a female-born teammate by 38 seconds at a race meet in Ohio last weekend.

After dishing out one beatdown in the pool, Thomas is alleged to have bragged: "That was so easy, I was cruising."

Comment: Athletic parity between 'transitioned' men and biological women is a farcical idea, and anyone with a modicum of common sense knows it. That such situations are allowed to continue is a measure of the stranglehold woke ideology have on society. The ACLU's stance is a prime example:

UK: Omicron spreading quickly; Time to work from home again

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced tighter restrictions Wednesday to stem the spread of the omicron variant, urging people in England to again work from home and mandating COVID-19 passes for entrance into nightclubs and large events.

Johnson said it was time to impose stricter measures to prevent a spike of hospitalizations and deaths as the new coronavirus variant spreads rapidly in the community.

"It has become increasingly clear that omicron is growing much faster than the previous delta variant and is spreading rapidly all around the world," he said in a press conference. "Most worryingly, there is evidence that the doubling time of omicron could currently be between two and three days."

Comment: If omicron isn't dangerous, and it isn't, and there's little doubt that leaders in the UK are aware of this, then why would Boris be calling for lockdowns and booster shots?

Dr. Anthony Fauci said during a CNN interview on Wednesday that it's only a matter of time before the definition of being fully vaccinated against COVID-19 changes.

Fauci's words came in response to a question from CNN host Kate Bolduan who asked, "Is it a matter now of when, not if, the definition of fully vaccinated changes?"


"My own personal opinion, Kate, is what you said is correct. It's going to be a matter of when, not if," Fauci answered.

Comment: "Fully vaccinated" will be forever a moving target, with the threat of losing your freedoms should you decide to 'opt-out' of the 'vaccination' program at any point...
