Posted By: Ribicon, 9/8/2021 12:54:32 PM
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is being criticized for her use of the term “menstruating persons” as she lashed out at Texas Gov. Greg Abbott over his new six-week abortion ban. The far-left New York congresswoman called Abbott “deeply ignorant” on Tuesday over the Lone Star State’s new law that prohibits almost all abortions after the six-week mark—including pregnancies that are the result of rape or incest. “I don’t know if he is familiar with a menstruating person’s body. In fact, I do know that he’s not familiar with a female or menstruating person’s body because if he did, he would know that you don’t have six weeks

Another 50 migrants including women and young children have been intercepted trying to cross the Channel today after the French branded Home Secretary Priti Patel a 'clown' for threatening to turn the boats round and send them back to Europe. Border Force cutter Vigilant docked at Dover Marina at around 3.30pm, where the arrivals disembarked. Women and children, including one mother wearing a red headscarf accompanied by three young boys, were escorted up the gangway for processing. Another boat carried at least 38 men to shore, with some wearing Adidas tracksuit jackets with jeans and carrying their possessions in a rucksack. One male migrant was seen wearing a trendy
President Biden had barely finished speaking to the nation about his crackdown on the unvaccinated before news broke that he was exempting a powerful union ally. The Washington Post reported Thursday night that his executive order forcing federal workers to take a COVID-19 vaccine does not include U.S. Postal Service workers. Citing “a White House official speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss not-yet-public portions of the president’s plan,” the Post reported that those workers merely would be strongly encouraged to follow the mandate. The Postal Service employs almost 650,000 people nationwide. Many are represented by the American Postal Workers Union, which has been critical
President Joe Biden tore into unruly passengers who have defied federal mask mandates during air travel–following a string of reports of confrontations between passengers and flight attendants.
'Show some respect!' he told rule-breakers in a speech from the White House. Biden delivered the admonishment as part of a speech where he repeatedly went after unvaccinated Americans who 'overcrowd our hospitals' and elected officials who 'undermine' public health guidelines.(Snip) The new range of penalties, which take effect Friday, September 10, 2021, will be $500-$1000 for first offenders. The amounts escalate to $1000-$3000 for second offenders, the Department of Homeland Security announced.
US Customs and Border Protection officials are looking into reports of alleged forced marriages between much older men and young girls whose families were desperate to have them escape the Taliban, according to a new report revealed Thursday. Those young girls told officials at a transit site in Abu Dhabi that they 'have been raped by older men they were forced to marry in order to escape Afghanistan,' the damning report obtained by Yahoo News and dated September 5 states. 'US officials are looking into reports that in the frantic evacuation of desperate Afghans from Kabul, older men were admitted together with young girls they claimed as "brides"
Vice President Kamala Harris criticized new abortion restrictions in Texas Thursday as an “abortion bounty law empowering vigilantes” and said Congress needs to “codify” the 1973 Supreme Court ruling that legalized abortion. Meeting at the White House with abortion rights advocates, Ms. Harris praised the Justice Department for filing a lawsuit to block the Texas law, which bars abortions as early as six weeks into a pregnancy and offers $10,000 for private parties to sue anyone who “aids or abets” an abortion.(Snip)“The right of women to make decisions about their own bodies is not negotiable,” the vice president said.
Sen. Marco Rubio sounded an alarm Thursday over reports the CIA is considering establishing a presence on TikTok, a social media platform with ties to the Chinese Communist Party. Mr. Rubio, the top Republican on the Intelligence Committee, called it a “Chinese Communist Party (CCP)-controlled” app. In a letter to CIA Director William Burns, the Florida senator said the social media platform and other “Chinese-owned apps” pose a significant risk to national security and urged Mr. Burns to stay clear. Mr. Rubio’s concerns piqued following a report Wednesday by Politico about the CIA’s social media strategy to demystify the spy agency and recruit a more diverse workforce.
Allison Williams, a veteran college football sideline reporter for ESPN, announced on Thursday that she will be opting out of the season because she will not take the COVID-19 vaccine. “While my work is incredibly important to me, the most important role I have is as a mother,” she wrote in a statement on Twitter. “Throughout our family planning with our doctor, as well as a fertility specialist, I have decided not to receive the COVID-19 vaccine at this time while my husband and I try for a second child.(Snip)ESPN’s parent company, Disney, announced last month that all employees were required to be fully vaccinated.

The push for testing comes as record numbers of children fall ill with the virus, posing an immense challenge for the schools now reopening for their fall 2021 semester.(Snip)Through this regular testing, school leaders can identify cases in people who may be asymptomatic and not showing any symptoms.
Unions that represent federal workers pushed back Thursday against President Biden‘s plan to require all federal employees and contractors to be vaccinated against COVID-19. The American Federation of Government Employees, which is part of the AFL-CIO and represents over 670,000 federal workers, said they encourage members to get vaccinated. However, they said COVID-19 vaccine requirements should be negotiated with the unions during collective bargaining, not mandated through an executive order. “Workers deserve a voice in their working conditions,” said the union’s national president Everett Kelly. “We expect to bargain over this change prior to implementation.” The National Treasury Employees Union, which represents 150,000 employees across 31 agencies,
Daunte Wright, the 20-year-old who was shot and killed by a Minnesota police officer in April, recorded a video of himself playing with a gun in a woman's bathroom just before he is alleged to have robbed her in December 2019. In a short 13-second clip, Wright is seen playing with the gun in a bathroom as water is running in the background.

One key prong of President Biden's plan to bankroll Democrats' $3.5 trillion budget plan is to monitor every inflow and outflow of an individual's bank account. The proposal would require banks to report to the IRS every deposit and withdrawal from an account, including transactions from Venmo, PayPal, crypto exchanges and the like in an effort to fight tax evasion. The IRS would know how much money is in an individual's bank account in a given year, whether the individual earned income on that account and exactly how much was going in an and out.

President Joe Biden on Thursday will impose more stringent vaccine rules on federal workers, and take steps to encourage private businesses to do the same, during a major speech meant to lay out a new approach to combating the coronavirus. Among the steps the President will take is signing an executive order requiring all federal workers be vaccinated against Covid-19, with no option of being regularly tested to opt out of the requirement, according to a source familiar with the plans. The President will also sign an executive order directing the same standard be extended to employees of contractors who do business with the federal government.
Jen Psaki said Thursday Joe Biden has the right to fire Trump-appointed military academy advisory board members because they ‘stood silent’ while the former president’s supporters stormed the Capitol. 'There are some people, of course, on these boards who have supported or stood by silently while their former boss supported an insurrection,' the White House press secretary told CNN's New Day. 'That's not really okay with us.'She also insisted that every president has the 'right' to appoint people they feel are aligned with their values on these advisory boards, even though they are non-partisan.
California governor hopeful Larry Elder had an egg thrown at him by a woman in a gorilla mask as he toured a homeless encampment on Venice Beach. The unidentified woman - whose choice of headwear has been branded racist by some conservative commentators online - was also filmed punching a man who told her to calm down.

Fox News Sunday anchor Chris Wallace said Wednesday on CBS’s “The Late Show” that he does not have people on his show “who were the leaders in the Congress of challenging” that President Joe Biden legitimately won the 2020 presidential race. Host Stephen Colbert asked, “I’m wondering whether you and your fellow Sunday morning guys out there who are doing the Sunday shows talking about the week if you ever feel like you shouldn’t have on people who have the irrational belief that the last election was stolen.”Wallace said, “I have never seen this. I’ve seen a lot. I’ve been in Washington 40 years, so I’ve seen
President Joe Biden on Thursday slammed the 80 million Americans who have yet to get a COVD vaccine shot, asking them 'what more is there to wait for.' 'This is not about freedom or personal choice. It's about protecting yourself and those around you, the people you work with, the people you care about, the people you love. My job as president is to protect all Americans,' he said in remarks in the State Dining Room at the White House.'We've been patient but our patience is wearing thin. And your refusal has cost all of us. So please do the right thing,' he said.
Washington — President Joe Biden on Thursday is announcing sweeping new federal vaccine requirements affecting as many as 100 million Americans in an all-out effort to increase COVID-19 vaccinations and curb the surging delta variant that is killing thousands each week and jeopardizing the nation’s economic recovery.
The expansive rules mandate that all employers with more than 100 workers require them to be vaccinated or test for the virus weekly, affecting about 80 million Americans. And the roughly 17 million workers at health facilities that receive federal Medicare or Medicaid also will have to be fully vaccinated.
Radio host John Fredericks joined Steve Bannon earlier this month to discuss an EXPLOSIVE development in Georgia.
According to John Fredericks, investigators now have video of 240 leftist operatives he called “ballot traffickers” dumping tens of thousands of ballots into drop boxes in the middle of the night in locations across Georgia.
The leftist operatives were identified making numerous drops in the middle of the night. 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!
A charity named after Winston Churchill has provoked fury by rebranding itself amid concerns over his views on race. The Winston Churchill Memorial Trust has removed pictures of the wartime leader from its website and is changing its name to the Churchill Fellowship. Volunteers at the trust said it was 'rewriting history'.
One told The Sun: 'He was voted, by the people, as the Greatest Briton in a BBC poll in 2002 but is now erased from his own charity by the woke brigade. 'You can't imagine what he would have to say about it all but I'm sure he wouldn't think it was Britain's finest hour.'
Never before in human history has a global pandemic resulted in the dismemberment of first-world economies, highly divisive universal vaccine and mask mandates, education-stunting school shutdowns, and the isolation of entire societies to the point of extreme mental health damage.
Throughout all this, the media have remained incurious as to how this historic misery happened.
Anyone with a half a brain cell already knew that a new virus that started within a stone's throw of a biosafety level 4 laboratory in an authoritarian nation likely either leaked or was released from that laboratory. But acknowledging this obvious fact immediately led to expulsion from "polite" society, or at least from social media.
Joe Biden’s speech on COVID was bizarrely incoherent.
He told the American people without qualification that fully vaccinated people are at incredibly low risk: “Only 1 out of every 160,000 fully vaccinated Americans was hospitalized for COVID per day.”
Then he promised to shield them against the evil people who are threatening their very lives: “We’re going to protect the vaccinated from unvaccinated coworkers.”
But Joe, you just said the vaccinated were already protected!

The Justice Department is suing Texas over a new state law that bans most abortions, arguing that it was enacted "in open defiance of the Constitution."
The lawsuit, filed Thursday in federal court in Texas, asks a federal judge to declare that the law is invalid, "to enjoin its enforcement, and to protect the rights that Texas has violated."
The Texas law, known as SB8, prohibits abortions once medical professionals can detect cardiac activity -- usually around six weeks before some women know they're pregnant. Courts have blocked other states from imposing similar restrictions, but Texas' law differs significantly because it leaves enforcement to private citizens

How dare AOC assume that Texas Gov. Greg Abbott is not a Menstruating-American. Nothing's been done about Migrants waltzing across Texas, is that not enough for her?
