The Mysterious Missing Link - Anti-Malaria Drug & Zinc

Authored by Joseph Berry via The Conservative Woman blog, Mystery surrounds why an anti-malaria drug is not being tested as a Covid-19 treatment in combination with zinc, which doctors say is crucial for efficacy. As we reported recently, President Trump revealed he was taking hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) alongside zinc after reports that many doctors are doing the same to help ward off Covid-19. Criticism of the President rose sharply after a non-randomised study published in the Lancet said that HCQ provided no benefit to hospitalised Covid-19 patients while being linked to increased deaths. What the mainstream media did not point out is that the Lancet study failed to test HCQ with zinc. Other experts have found zinc to be vital for efficacy in this context. Zinc, available as an over-the-counter supplement, has long been seen as an immune-system booster that helps develop immune cells, or antibodies, and […]

Local Officials Vow To Defy Cuomo as He Cancels Reopening Phase Hours Before It Was To Start

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo indicated on a radio show Thursday evening that phase two of the reopening process for the eligible regions of the state would not begin Friday as local officials and businesses had previously been planning for. Retail stores, hair salons and barbershops had been preparing to reopen their doors after over two months of shutdowns due to the coronavirus, as had been laid out in reopening guidelines provided by the state. However, the Democratic governor suggested in a Thursday afternoon radio interview that five regions of the state would not enter phase two on Friday morning, and he would instead give the past two weeks of COVID-19 data to experts to review and determine if his state can continue to reopen. “The reopening of the first five regions ends tomorrow when […]

Chinese Cheating Rampant In US College Applications, And In Classrooms

Authored by Eduardo Neret via Campus Reform, Fake transcripts and essays, falsified letters of recommendation and test scores, paid consultants, and fake passports and IDs. These are just some of the many methods that Chinese nationals have reportedly used to gain acceptance into U.S. colleges and universities. What once might have been a few isolated incidents has now turned into a vast, international money-making industry. Hiu Kit David Chong, an admissions official at the University of Southern California (USC), pleaded guilty in April to wire fraud in and helping Chinese students defraud their college applications. According to the Department of Justice, Chong admitted to making $40,000 from clients over the years by providing “false college transcripts with inflated grades,” “fraudulent personal statements,” and “phony letters of recommendation” for the applications of his Chinese clients. He […]

Biden Is Like a Clinton

Is Joe Biden an honorary Clinton? Or are recent events so Clintonesque that a doppelgänger is more likely, a covert replacement named Joe Blinten? To recap: Joe’s former senate staffer Tara Reade + alleges he pinned her against a wall in 1993, put his hand under her skirt, and penetrated her with his finger. Of course, Ms. Reade’s accusation echoes those from Bill Clinton’s own pre-White House office. And there are more parallels. Like the Clintons, Joe is associated with shady deals in China and Eastern Europe. Powerful DNC figures virtually handed Joe the nomination over Bernie Sanders. A prudent investigation into Joe’s conduct during the Obama administration ended instead with a diversionary “investigation” into President Trump. And at times Joe seems to wrestle with the meanings of basic words like is. Closer still, Joe’s […]

“Bet You Stay Home Now!!” Arsonist Burns Down Lockdown-Rule-Breaking Church

Authored by Simon Black via SovereignMan.com, Are you ready for this week’s absurdity? Here’s our Friday roll-up of the most ridiculous stories from around the world that are threats to your liberty, risks to your prosperity… and on occasion, inspiring poetic justice. Church burnt down for ignoring lockdown rules “Bet you stay home now you hypokrits [sic],” read the misspelled graffiti outside of a burnt down church in Mississippi. That graffiti, of course, is suspected to have come from the unidentified arsonist. The motive: the church ignored the city’s lockdown rules, and continued holding services. This same church sued the city of Holly Springs over the lockdowns after being cited for holding mass despite city restrictions on how many people could gather, and non-essential businesses. The lawsuit cites religious freedom guaranteed under the First Amendment, and claims […]
