IRS Decides It Won’t Make You Take A Selfie To Access Your Taxes After Fierce Backlash

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) will no longer force taxpayers to submit a scan of their face to access their taxes online.

The agency had previously announced plans to require users to sign into the IRS website through third-party identity verification firm ID.me and provide a government identification document alongside a selfie. The IRS said the move would provide users with greater security and accessibility to their tax information.

However, the agency announced Monday it would be scrapping its plans to implement the verification system.

“The IRS takes taxpayer privacy and security seriously, and we understand the concerns that have been raised,” IRS Commissioner Chuck Rettig said in the statement. “Everyone should feel comfortable with how their personal information is secured, and we are quickly pursuing short-term options that do not involve facial recognition.”

The decision to transition away from facial recognition technology follows fierce criticism from voices across the political spectrum as well as privacy advocates. Republican Mississippi Sen. Roger Wicker sent a letter to Rettig on Friday asking how the agency arrived at the decision to compel taxpayers to submit selfies, while The Washington Post editorial board slammed the move as posing “serious concerns about privacy.”

Democratic Oregon Sen. Ron Wyden called on the IRS to abandon its plans to implement facial recognition technology on Monday morning, just hours before the agency’s announcement.

“The Treasury Department has made the smart decision to direct the IRS to transition away from using the controversial ID.me verification service, as I requested earlier today” Wyden said in a statement. “I understand the transition process may take time, but I appreciate that the administration recognizes that privacy and security are not mutually exclusive and no one should be forced to submit to facial recognition to access critical government services.”

Biden’s Constitutional Civil War: Do we have one or two U.S. Constitutions?

Recently Biden, in a meeting with members of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said, “The Constitution is always evolving slightly in terms of additional rights or curtailing rights.”

QUESTION: What exactly does this mean?

ANSWER: We are in a Constitutional civil war.

A Constitutional Civil War

America is currently in a Constitutional Civil War. There are two views of the U.S. Constitution:

  1. The meaning of the Constitution is fixed and can only be changed by amending it. To amend the Constitution requires the Amendment to be approved by a 2/3rds majority of the House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate. Then the proposed Amendment is sent to the states where, again, 2/3rds of the states must ratify it. Therefore, the whole point of a written Constitution is that it doesn’t “evolve” except under the arduous procedures for amending it.
  2. The meaning of the Constitution is malleable and open to broad interpretation. Because the times have changed we must interpret the Constitution with what some people believe, not what is actually says. Hence, Biden’s statement, “The Constitution is always evolving slightly in terms of additional rights or curtailing rights.” This view is held by progressives going back to President Woodrow Wilson have always hated the actual Constitution, as it limits their agenda.

This statement by Biden has set up a Constitutional Civil war.

The winner of this war will determine if we remain a Constitutional Republic or devolve into a democracy.

Constitutional scholar, senior fellow with the Claremont Institute and distinguished professor of government at Claremont McKenna College Charles Kesler said this about the Constitution Civil War:

“Underlying this cold civil war is the fact that increasingly America is torn between two Constitutions. Where it ends up then is some form of crisis, a crisis of the two Constitutions, a crisis towards which we are approaching if not yet hurtling, but which has no very good end available to us.”

We are currently in a Constitutional Civil War because Biden’s Build Back Better agenda isn’t moving forward and therefore Biden, his administration and the Democrat Party want to change how we think about our Constitution.

How Do We Solve this Constitutional Civil War?

Kesler outlined five possible ways to resolve this Constitutional civil war:

  1. One is to change the subject.
  2. Another is to change minds through persuasion, until one side wins.
  3. A third is a “reinvigorated federalism” that allows blue states and red states to address issues differently and coexist with minimal interference from the U.S. government.
  4. Secession.
  5. The fifth and final possibility—war.

Kesler warned,

The living Constitution implies that the other Constitution is a dead Constitution, or at least is on life support, and that it must be transformed, it must be infused with new meaning, new ends and to some degree new means and institutions, to be kept alive in order to be a vital part of our politics.

Are we headed toward a war?

The Bottom Line

President Woodrow Wilson was one of the first to use the term “living Constitution” to suggest it changes with the times.

According to Kesler the “Constitutional civil war” erupted when conservatives fought back:

The conservatives who began an epic campaign against the inevitable emergency of the living Constitution had in common the desire, the duty to oppose the gradual disappearance of limited government from American political life. When it became clear in the ’50s and especially in the ’60s that the surrender was off, the cold civil war was on.

Christopher DeMuth, a distinguished fellow at Hudson Institute said:

The Trump administration has been a return to normalcy, at least [to] the situation before Obama or late Bush administration, and then some. Not only has the Trump administration withdrawn many of the Obama administration’s most brazen extrastatutory ventures such as the Clean Power Plan, but in two critical cases, President Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals decree and his expenditure of billions of dollars for Obamacare cost-sharing expenditures without any congressional appropriation whatsoever, in these two cases, he has withdrawn them and sent them back to Congress.

It it time, like it was in the 1960s to fight and stop this idea of a living constitution than “is always evolving slightly in terms of additional rights or curtailing rights.”

This idea of a living constitution is a myth. A very dangerous myth that can and will lead to a civil war.

Mark our words, it’s coming. It’s a war between we the people and them the government. Just like during the American revolution!

DeSantis, Republican Attorneys General To Launch Probe Into GoFundMe Over Freedom Convoy’s Fundraiser

One immediate action is revoke GoFundMe’s charitable foundation status. Clearly they are a political organization.

If you have a GoFundMe account – delete it.

DeSantis, Republican Attorneys General To Launch Probe Into GoFundMe Over Freedom Convoy’s Fundraiser

By Shakhzod Yuldoshboev, The Daily caller, February 05, 2022 5:13 PM ET

Top GOP officials, including Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and West Virginia and Louisiana attorneys general, vowed to investigate GoFundMe’s decision to refuse distribution of fundraiser donations to “Freedom Convoy 2022.”

“It is a fraud for @gofundme to commandeer $9M in donations sent to support truckers and give it to causes of their own choosing,” DeSantis tweeted Saturday, referring to the crowdfunding website’s initial plans to “send all remaining funds to credible and established charities.”

DeSantis promised to “investigate these deceptive practices,” stating that those who donated to the protests against the Canadian government’s COVID-19 mandate had to receive their money back.

Republican Louisiana and West Virginia attorneys general have also called their constituents who donated to the Freedom Convoy to reach out to them, as the officials investigated the legality of the crowdfunding company’s actions.

“My office will be looking into whether or not #GoFundMe violated our state law. If you are a Louisiana donor to the #FreedomConvoy, please contact my #ConsumerProtection Section!” Jeff Landry, attorney general in Louisiana, said in a Saturday tweet.

“In WV, organizations must not deceive donors and engage in deceptive advertising practices. If you’ve been victimized by a deceptive act or practice, let us know!” West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey said.

GoFundMe announced Saturday a change of course, vowing to send the entire sum of remaining donations back to the donors “within 7-10 business days,” as opposed to the previous plans to redirect the funds to other charities.

WATCH! Schools across America implement BLM Week of Action, calls for ‘disruption of Western nuclear family’

Sending your children to government schools is child abuse.

Schools across America implement BLM Week of Action that calls for ‘disruption of Western nuclear family’

Week of action curriculum centers itself around 13 ‘Black Lives Matter Guiding Principles’

By Houston Keene | Fox News February 2, 2022:

Schools across America are implementing the Black Lives Matter at School Week of Action curriculum that calls for the “disruption of Western nuclear family dynamics.”

The week of action started on Monday in several schools from Washington state to Massachusetts, bringing to classrooms the activist-based curriculum that preaches controversial ideas.

According to the week of action “starter kit” published on the Black Lives Matter at School website, the group has a list of four “national demands” that include funding “counselors not cops” and mandating “Black History and Ethnic Studies” in classrooms.

Additionally, the week of action curriculum centers itself on the 13 “Black Lives Matter Guiding Principles,” which include concepts such as “Black Villages” and “Globalism.”

“Black Villages is the disruption of Western nuclear family dynamics and a return to the ‘collective village’ that takes care of each other,” the starter kit reads. “Globalism is our ability to see how we are impacted or privileged within the Black global family that exists across the world in different regions.”

“Most rational thinkers agree that public schools should not be home to political activism, from any side of the political divide, but public schools across America, from Boston to Seattle, have opened their doors for activist teachings from the divisive Black Lives Matter political organization,” Parents Defending Education vice president of investigations Asra Nomani said in a statement.

“Under the cover of a week of action, called ‘Black Lives Matter at School,’ children as young as five years old are being trained how to be political activists,” Nomani continued. “What we are witnessing is state-sponsored political indoctrination, using coloring books, downloadable slide shows and contests to teach a next generation ‘social justice activism,’ in the program’s own words.”

“We need radicalization out of schools, especially as children struggle with learning loss from the pandemic, and reading, writing and arithmetic back in schools,” Nomani added.

Biden’s Bolshevik Agenda

“The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings; the inherent virtue of socialism is the equal sharing of miseries.” – Winston Churchill.


Barack Obama promised to “fundamentally transform” America. Obama, after passage of the Affordable Care Act, failed to turn America into a truly Bolshevik (a.k.a. socialist) country.

Biden, however, has fundamentally transformed America into a Bolshevik style government.

How do we know this?

In an August 17th, 2020 VOX article titled “This is the future Joe Biden wants wrote:

When I asked Symone Sanders, a senior adviser to Joe Biden’s 2020 campaign, what the former vice president’s plan for his first 100 days in office was, her response was blunt.

“Wouldn’t everybody like to know?”

Sanders was also being coy — in fact, she had just finished walking me through Biden’s “Build Back Better” agenda, an umbrella term that the campaign has been using for policies meant to aid the economic recovery from the Covid-19 crisis.

Well Symone we all now know Biden’s plan.

We are now in the second year of the Biden administration and the second year of flattening the Covid-19 curve. Covid has mutated, no pun intended, from a curve to a crisis under Biden.

The fall is coming and we don’t know if we can stop Biden’s Build Back Better agenda.

  • Food shortages are here.
  • Medical supplies shortages are here.
  • Water, electricity, gas are being shut randomly and for unknown periods of time, e.g. California.
  • The government has run out of money and we the people are being left to fend for ourselves.

QUESTIONS:

  • Have you seen any economic recovery or solution to the Covid crisis?
  • Have you seen Americans growing and prospering. Are you seeing your income go up and your taxes going down.
  • Have you seen your job secured and company expanding?
  • Have your been threatened if you don’t get jabbed you will lose your job?
  • Have you been told that to go to a restaurant you need proof that you have been vaccinated, e.g. a vaccine passport?
  • Are you fearful that globally tensions are rising and there’s a potential for war between Russian and Ukraine, China and Taiwan or between Iran and the West Bank and Israel?

What I have seen since the inauguration of Biden is ever expanding intrusions of government into my life, my family’s lives, our community, our state and our nation.

Biden’s advisers were telling New York magazine’s Gabriel Debenedetti that Biden wanted an “FDR-sized” administration. This means more centralized power in Washington, D.C., more regulation, more spending and the potential of getting into another World War.

Building Bolsheviks Agenda

As Mark J. Perry wrote:

As we’ve learned from countless examples throughout history, including now Venezuela, the main difference between capitalism and socialism is this: capitalism works.

Biden is anti-Capitalist. Biden has built, funded and expanded the powers of Bolsheviks in the government. Biden is going after the capitalists using the mantra of taxing the rich.

Bolsheviks were a radical, far-left, and revolutionary Marxist faction founded by Vladimir Lenin. Biden has surrounded himself with radical, far-left revolutionaries.

Biden is the new Lenin and his party, his administration and is cabinet are filled with radical, far-left, and revolutionary Marxist Bolsheviks bent on expanding government using the myths of: climate change, a Covid crisis, political opponents are insurrectionists and our enemies are now our friends.

If you don’t believe me then see how Biden’s Bolsheviks are treating our enemies like Iran, China, North Korea, Russia and the Palestinian Authority. Contrast that with what the previous administration did to keep or enemies at bay with sanctions, tariffs and policies that put Americans and America first.

The Bottom Line

Biden’s Bolsheviks are anti-Capitalism. Biden wants more government control over you, me, businesses, the media and the independent states of America.

Remember what Ayn Rand wrote about America’s abundance:

America’s abundance was created not by public sacrifices to “the common good,” but by the productive genius of free men who pursued their own personal interests and the making of their own private fortunes. They did not starve the people to pay for America’s industrialization. They gave the people better jobs, higher wages and cheaper goods with every new machine they invented, with every scientific discovery or technological advance—and thus the whole country was moving forward and profiting, not suffering, every step of the way.

Under Biden America’s abundance is waning and in jeopardy. 

While Biden’s poll numbers are in the toilet, he and his administration is still flushing our economy, national security, healthcare system down the drain.

This will not change unless Republicans take back the House and Senate on November 8th, 2022. This is the last best hope to stop Biden’s Bolsheviks in Congress and at the local, county and state levels.

Conservative Republicans can and must fundamentally undo everything that Biden’s Bolsheviks have done.

Tell Your Family, Friends and Church Leaders about the Religious Liberty Coalition!

“Nothing is more dreaded than the national government meddling with religion.” – John Adams, Letter to Benjamin Rush

“To those who cite the First Amendment as reason for excluding God from more and more of our institutions and everyday life, may I just say: The First Amendment of the Constitution was not written to protect the people of this country from religious values; it was written to protect religious values from government tyranny.” – Ronald Reagan, Address to Alabama State Legislature


Those who believe in the God of Abraham are under assault in America. In 2021 there was a record-breaking 360 million Christians persecuted globally.

John Cody from Remix News reported:

In 2021, almost 6,000 Christians were killed due to their religion. The number increased by 24 percent compared to the previous year, when less than 5,000 cases were recorded. Eight out of ten Christians killed were from Nigeria.

The number of closed, attacked, or destroyed churches has also increased by more than 600 cases. According to the organization, the number of detained Christians for religious reasons increased by 44%.

Today, Islam and Islamists are more protected in America than Christians and Jews. Anyone criticizing Islam is labeled Islamophobic, yet no one who criticizes Christianity is a labeled Chritianphobic. Why is that?

Does the First Amendment only pertain to non-Christians? Is not freedom of religious beliefs only apply to Muslims but not to Jews and Christian?

Why are so many Christians and Jews persecuted in Muslim majority countries?

Who is helping protect our religious liberties?

The Religious Liberty Coalition

The Religious Liberty Coalition is one organization that is doing more to protect religious liberties than the Catholic, Lutheran, Baptist, Evangelical and other Christian denomination churches in America.

The Religious Liberty Coalition  website asks you to:

Join a robust coalition of like-minded ministry leaders from all around the United States who are standing for religious liberty and freedom.

It is time that ministry leaders take a stand from their pulpits to defend religious liberty. Ask your church leader is they have joined the Religious Liberty Coalition. If they have not ask them to do so. Tell your fellow Christians and Jewish leaders to do the same.

Ronald Reagan, Remarks at Conference on Religious Liberty said:

When our Founding Fathers passed the First Amendment, they sought to protect churches from government interference. They never intended to construct a wall of hostility between government and the concept of religious belief itself.

If our religious liberties are lost then everything is lost. Destroy the First Amendment then all other amendments of the U.S. Constitution become null and voided by government.

South Africa – A Commie Disgrace

Foreword by Fred Brownbill. Being an African born and bred and having lived in South Africa, and in fact finished my education there, I have amazing memories about a totally civilized country, well run and extremely wealthy, in fact the powerhouse of Africa. Unfortunately, since handing it to the ANC, the country has gone to hell and is looking for a place deeper than that. The communist run government is corrupt and filled with evil doers, not many of whom give a thought to the poor people they govern with a rod of iron even as their economy tanks. As usual the leadership is rolling in money while the population gets poorer daily.

When I read the article below it kinda epitomized everything bad in the world today. Not just in SA but here as well where we have a leadership intent on destroying our country and our economy, all while the upper leadership get obscenely wealthier as the middle class is destroyed.


‘Forced by law’: former South African chief justice apologizes for pro-Israel comments

Former South African Chief Justice Mogoeng Mogoeng has apologized regarding his comments defending Israel, despite having said repeatedly that he would never do so.

“I, Mogoeng Mogoeng, the former Chief Justice of the Republic of South Africa, hereby apologize unconditionally for becoming involved in political controversy through my utterances at the online seminar (webinar) hosted by the Jerusalem Post on 23 June 2020, in which I participated,” he said Thursday in a statement.

“I am now forced by the law — the order of the lawfully constituted appeal panel of the judicial conduct committee — to apologize unconditionally in terms of the prescribed apology. And because I am not above the law, I hereby apologize as ordered.”

During the June 2020 webinar, however, in discussion with South African Chief Rabbi Warren Goldstein, Mogoeng said:

“I’m under an obligation as a Christian to love Israel, to pray for [the] peace of Jerusalem, which actually means the peace of Israel, and I cannot, as I Christian, do anything other than love and pray for Israel, because I know, hatred for Israel by me and for my nation, can only attract unprecedented curses upon our nation.”

The anti-Israel group Africa4Palestine, the South African branch of the BDS movement, filed a complaint over the chief justice’s comments, accusing him of breaching the judicial code of conduct.

Last month, South Africa’s Judicial Conduct Appeals Committee gave Mogoeng 10 days to make an “unconditional apology for becoming involved in political controversy.”

“I respect the law. I will not defy the law. But if it does come to the point where I am forced to do the abominable, or I am forced to reject God, then I would rather be without money, be without any position. I will never refuse to obey the Lord,” Mogoeng, who served as chief justice until his retirement from the position in October 2021, said.

“If I get to the point where there is a judgment that says, ‘You must say you hate Israel and the Jews’, I would rather cease to be Chief Justice.

“If I get to the point where they say, ‘Mogoeng, you must say you hate the Palestinians and Palestine,’ I would rather cease to be Chief Justice than to do it…

“I will not apologize for anything. There is nothing to apologize for…I can’t apologize for loving. I can’t apologize for not harboring hatred and bitterness.”

SISSY WATCH USA: NYC Mayor Eric Adams, Brittany Packnett Cunningham, Harvard’s Institute of Politics

SISSY: an effeminate man or boy also : a timid, weak, or cowardly person.


The culture warrior’s favorite weapon is a myth called “social justice.”

This is not equal justice under the law, but is an effort to give justice to a few at the expense of the many.

Social justice takes many forms: from the Black Lives Matter riots, to the police targeting one race, to defunding the police activists, to the branding of one group as “racists”, to the teaching of social justice programs like Critical Race Theory in our public schools, colleges and universities.

This edition of Sissy Watch USA is dedicated to two individuals and one university who are complicit in creating an atmosphere and pushing of “justice for me but not for thee” propaganda.

Both of our sissies, one male and one female, are black. That’s a fact and neither a racial nor a homophonic slur.

NYC Mayor Eric Adams

Newly elected New York City Mayor Eric Adams, a former NYPD officer bragged about targeting White people when he was a police officer. Adams clearly stated, “Every day in the police department I kicked those crackers ass.”

Watch:

Now New York has a mayor who hates whites and crackers asses, and he doesn’t mean those Saltines crackers asses made by Nabisco, no pun intended.

Brittany Packnett Cunningham

Brittany Packnett Cunningham is a social justice activist, an MSNBC legal analyst and the co-founder of Campaign Zero. Cunningham was a member of President Barack Obama’s Task Force on 21st Century Policing and was Executive Director for Teach for America in St. Louis, Missouri.

Teach for America lists it’s challenge as:

Potential is equally distributed across lines of race and class, but in America today, opportunity is not. Teach For America is working to realize the day when every child has an equal opportunity to learn, grow, influence, and lead.

Teach for America clearly wants equal outcomes, not equal opportunity. What we do now is that black children suffer more because they are highly likely to come from a broken family than not. This simple fact greatly impacts both their potential and opportunities to succeed.

Obama’s Task Force on 21st Century Policing had the following mission:

The mission of the Executive Order was clear: The Task Force shall, consistent with applicable law, identify best practices and otherwise make recommendations to the President on how policing practices can promote effective crime reduction while building public trust.

[ … ]

The task force generated 59 recommendations with 92 action items.

Read the full Task Force on 21st Century Policing report.

Underlying themes of the Task Force were:

  1. Change the culture of policing.
  2. Embrace community policing.
  3. Ensure fair and impartial policing.
  4. Build community capital.
  5. Pay attention to officer wellness and safety.
  6. Technology.

The Task Force also had recommendations. For example, Recommendation 1.2 Law enforcement agencies should acknowledge the role of policing in past and present injustice and discrimination and how it is a hurdle to the promotion of community trust.

Recently MSNBC legal analyst Brittany Packnett Cunningham said on Thursday, February 3rd, 2022, on “The ReidOut” that the slogan Make America Great Again reflected a desire to return to “days when you could lynch or murder black folks.”

So, Cunningham has fully embraces injustice and discrimination against anyone and everyone who supports making America great, again.

Clearly Cunningham was indeed trained by Michele Obama, as it says on her t-shirt.

Harvard University’s Institute of Politics

Why did we included Harvard’s Institute of Politics in this edition of Sissy Watch USA?

On September 22nd, 2020 Harvard’s Institute of Politics hosted a virtual study group with IOP Fellow Brittany Packnett Cunningham.

According to the study group “Radical Imagination at the Grassroots” overview:

We know the phrase, “all politics is local.” Still, we rarely interrogate the trajectory of local politics and the grassroots organizing that transforms it. As the struggle for racial justice expands across the world, new hotspots of protest and focus have emerged, while cities that were ground zeroes in previous years have engaged in long term fights against police violence and the carceral state. In this session, we will first explore this concept of the radical imagination that will guide our series, and then continue on to explore the wins-and the wins that became losses-that cities like Ferguson and Los Angeles have experienced that have informed the seemingly quick transformations of cities like Minneapolis. If abolition is possible-how can it come to be?

According to the book The Radical Imagination: Social Movement Research in the Age of Austerity by Max Haiven and Alex Khasnabish:

The radical imagination, then, is that spark of difference, desire and discontent that can be fanned into the flames of social change.

This sounds very much like Obama’s fundamentally transforming America mantra. It also reflects Biden’s Build Back Better agenda.

The Bottom Line

What we are seeing in politics, in our law enforcement, in our public schools and in such prestigious institutions as Harvard University are concerted efforts to fundamentally produce a new world order and a generation built upon the goal of fundamentally transforming mankind into a dystopian mythical radical, and racially, reimagined world.

WATCH: ‘Our Schools Are Being Turned Into Indoctrination Camps’:

They are fanning the flames of the discontent of their own making in order to light the spark which has burned U.S. cities like Ferguson, Missouri and Los Angeles, California to the ground.

Gird your loins we’re in for a rocky racist ride ahead.

Why My Pillow’s Headache Could Become Your Nightmare

Here’s this week’s Shout Out Patriots Show:

Snowflake Nazis are here. And their motto is: No Coin for You!

When two banks last month told My Pillow guy, Mike Lindell, to take his accounts elsewhere, it made national news. Of course, the media loves to gloat when bad things happen to American-loving Patriots.

For many Americans, this news shocked them. Can a bank really close an account based on the customer’s political point of view or activities?

Who could blame Moms and Pops if they rightfully started to worry, “Do I risk my bank account being closed because I posted something on Facebook?”

Well, the fear should run much deeper than that!

It’s not just a person’s bank account that could be closed due to their political views, but credit cards could be canceled, insurance companies dropped, and much more.

Remember the Soup Nazi on the Jerry Seinfeld show? He would famously disparage unruly customers by shouting, “No soup for YOU!”

Now enters the Snowflake Nazis, who have a hatefully similar slogan if you’re a conservative, “No coin for YOU!” Their goal is to bankrupt Patriots.

And they mean business.

How do I know?

Because at Christian Action Network, we’ve been the victim of these ‘Take your business and shove it’ efforts many times over!

Throughout the past several years, we’ve been booted out the door by Global Payment Systems (a credit card merchant service), QuickBooks, Discover Card, and an insurance company — all because they woke up one day and found our religious views objectionable.

Last summer, we were notified by BB&T Bank, which we’ve done business with for over 20 years, that they closed our account.

Who are these Snowflake Nazis? I hope you want to know.

We have the answers and expose them on our recent episode of Shout Out Patriots.

Here’s why you need to take a look:

When Discover Card tells Christian Action Network that it cannot receive donations from cardholders, they are also telling the customer who they can donate to…and even what they can buy, based on their religious, political, or constitutional views.

What happens when Discover Card (or any other credit card company, for that matter) doesn’t want you to buy a gun?

It’s easy to see where all this is going.

Suppose the Snowflake Nazis target YOUR house of worship because they object to your pastor’s religious views on gay marriage or abortion. Will they convince Discover Card to deny donations to your church? Will they convince the church’s bank to kick them out?

We have a lot to say about this and a lot to expose.

UK Government Report: Children up to 52 times more likely to die following a COVID shot

Data from Britain’s Office for National Statistics show a stark increase in deaths among children both single- and double-jabbed compared to their un-jabbed counterparts……as the Democrat regime in America pushes for mandates for children and babies.

British children up to 52 times more likely to die following a COVID shot: gov’t report

By: LifeSite News | Feb 2, 2022 | David McLoone

Data from Britain’s Office for National Statistics show a stark increase in deaths among children both single- and double-jabbed compared to their un-jabbed counterparts..

Britain’s Office for National Statistics (ONS) has released data indicating that children who received the COVID-19 jabs have suffered a death rate 54 times greater than that of their un-jabbed counterparts.

In December, the ONS published age-standardized data on the mortality rates of individuals in 5-year age sets in Britain, grouped by their “vaccination” status for the COVID-19 shots. The data accounts for the period from January 1 to October 31, 2021.

The ONS tabulated “Monthly age-standardised mortality rates by age-group and vaccination status for deaths involving COVID-19, per 100,000 person-years” but presented the data only for ages 18 and over. However, the jabs are available to children as young as 12, and those children are allowed to receive the shot against their parents’ wishes. In limited cases, children as young as 5 have been given a reduced dosage of the shots.

Nevertheless, as noted by The Exposé, a separate table outlining “deaths and person-years by vaccination status” includes 5-year age groups from 10-years-old and up. From the data provided, a calculation of the mortality rate per 100,000 person-years can be made.

The rate per 100,000 person-years delineation is used in preference over the simpler 100,000 population calculation to better represent the mortality rates over a specific period of time, as people in one “vaccination” group – such as un-jabbed, single-jabbed, and double-jabbed – soon move into the next group.

Table 9 of the ONS report shows the “deaths and person-years by vaccination status and five-year age group” for the entire ten-month period. According to the report, the un-jabbed 10–14-year-old group represents 2,094,711 person-years, and the 15–19 age set 1,587,072 person-years over the same time.

[ … ]

From the above table the 100,000 person-years calculation can be made, with the younger group coming out at 20.9 un-jabbed per 100,000 person-years and the older group at 15.9. Following this, the mortality rate per 100,000 person-years is worked out by dividing the number of deaths within each group by the 100,000 person-years calculation.

The result is that for the 10–14 year group, the un-jabbed mortality per 100,000 person-years is 4.6 while the un-jabbed mortality rate per 100,000 person-years for the 15–19 group is 10.1.

Using the same data set and calculation, the mortality rate for 10­–14-year-olds who received one dose of the jabs suffered a 45.1 per 100,000 person-years death rate, while 15–19-year-olds with one jab suffered 18.3 deaths per 100,00 person-years.

… Among those who received two doses of the COVID jabs in both young age groups, the death rates were higher still, with 32.9 deaths per 100,000 person-years among the 15–19 age group and a staggering 238.4 deaths per 100,000 person-years among 10–14-year-olds in the U.K.

The data show a stark increase in deaths among children both single- and double-jabbed compared to their un-jabbed counterparts. For children aged 15–19, the risk of death increases by almost double if they take the first shot and by over three times if they take the second.

[ … ]

10–14-year-olds, on the other hand, run the risk of dying almost by a factor of ten following the first dose while the second dose brings a 51.8 times greater risk of death than if they had remained un-jabbed.

On average, it means that children between 10 and 19 years of age who had received at least one shot of the COVID jabs had a 3.7 times greater chance of dying between January and October last year.

[ … ]

Additionally, according to the ONS’ “five-year average weekly deaths by sex and age group” figures between 2015 and 2019 among children ages 10-14, recorded deaths have risen by 44 percent above the average in weekly figures provided by the ONS for 2021.

The JCVI, an independent adviser to the U.K. government on immunization programs, determined in a September 3 statement that the “available evidence indicates that the individual health benefits from COVID-19 vaccination are small in those aged 12 to 15 years.” They added that any benefit granted by the shots is only “marginally greater than the potential known harms,” while acknowledging that “there is considerable uncertainty regarding the magnitude of the potential harms.”

Given the uncertainty of risks involved with the COVID shots, the JCVI considered the benefits “too small to support advice on a universal programme of vaccination of otherwise healthy 12- to 15-year-old children at this time.”

Moreover, COVID shot trials have never produced evidence that the vaccines stop infection or transmission. They do not even claim to reduce hospitalization, but the measurement of success is in preventing severe symptoms of COVID-19 disease. Indeed, there is strong evidence that the “vaccinated” are just as likely to carry and transmit the virus as the unvaccinated.

Many Catholics and other Christians have rejected the currently available COVID inoculations because they were developed or tested using cell lines derived from aborted children.

Israeli Coronavirus Expert: 70-80% of Most Severe Cases Vaccinated at Least Three Times

And yet the Democrats are double down on their efforts to mandate these dangerous shots.

Israeli Coronavirus expert: 70-80% of most severe cases vaccinated at least three times

By Adam Eliyahu Berkowitz | Israel 365 | Feb 4, 2022 |

Prof. Yaakov Jerris, director of Ichilov Hospital’s coronavirus ward, told Channel 13 News that the majority of serious cases were vaccinated patients.

“Right now, most of our severe cases are vaccinated,” Jerris said on Channel 13 News. “They had at least three injections. Between seventy and eighty percent of the serious cases are vaccinated. So, the vaccine has no significance regarding severe illness, which is why just twenty to twenty-five percent of our patients are unvaccinated.”

Professor Jerris also related to an issue in reporting that has been revealed to be prevalent in reporting data. Speaking at a cabinet meeting on Sunday, he told ministers, “Defining a serious patient is problematic. For example, a patient with a chronic lung disease always had a low level of oxygen, but now he has a positive coronavirus test result which technically makes him a ‘serious coronavirus patient,’ but that’s not accurate. The patient is only in a difficult condition because he has a serious underlying illness.”

Jerris’s statements are consistent with a German government report that found that found more than 78.6% of reported cases of the omicron COVID-19 variant in the country were in vaccinated individuals. Four thousand and twenty people who reported contracting Omicron in the study – which equates to 95.6 percent of total cases – had received at least two doses of COVID-19 vaccines, meaning the vaccinated were 3.7 times more likely to contract the variant.

European Nations Are Dismantling the COVID State Before Our Eyes. Will the U.S. Follow?

Denmark took the lead in Europe this week, scrapping virtually all pandemic restrictions as the Scandinavian country of 5 million announced it no longer considers COVID-19 “a socially critical disease.”

Denmark’s move came the same week that health ministers in the United Kingdom announced plans to terminate an order forcing all NHS staff to get vaccinated against COVID, a move The Guardian said is designed to “prevent an exodus of thousands of frontline health workers.” The move came days after the UK scrapped its school mask mandate.

Not to be outdone, Finland’s Prime Minister Sanna Marin recently told reporters the country would be retiring COVID passports and, according to Reuters, aims “to remove all restrictions at the start of next month.”

Meanwhile, public health officials in Norway also said the country would be lifting nearly all of its COVID restrictions, including COVID tests at the border. Norway’s Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Stoere told reporters that even though COVID infections remain high, hospitalizations have stabilized and most citizens have some protection from the virus because of previous infections and vaccination.

“Even if many more people are becoming infected, there are fewer who are hospitalised,” Stoere explained. “We’re well protected by vaccines. This means that we can relax many measures even as infections are rising rapidly.”

The Czech Republic, meanwhile, recently scrapped its vaccine mandate, while several provinces in Spain also ditched virtually all COVID restrictions after a study conducted by the Public Health Observatory of Cantabria found vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals transmit the virus at similar rates.

Not all European nations have scrapped their COVID policies, however. In fact, some appear intent to move in the opposite direction.

Austria, for example, is becoming the first European country to make COVID vaccination compulsory for all adults. Greece, meanwhile, has announced it will fine adults over 60 who do not comply with vaccination; and Germany’s incoming chancellor, Social Democrat Olaf Scholz, has indicated he will support a COVID-19 vaccine mandate.

In Belgium, authorities have only grudgingly begun to rollback COVID restrictions, despite protests in Brussels of some 50,000 who gathered to oppose the state’s mandates.

“I’m angry about the blackmail that the government is doing,” protester Caroline van Landuyt told Reuters.

The rally in Brussels ended with police using tear gas and a water cannon to disperse those who’d assembled in protest, culminating in 60 people being arrested and 12 protesters being taken to hospital (as well as three police officers).

Why are many European nations dismantling their COVID restrictions while others are ramping up new mandates? While many are loath to admit it, it’s becoming increasingly clear that state attempts to control the virus have failed miserably.

A new Johns Hopkins metaanalysis, for instance, found that the lockdowns many countries embraced were a massive failure, resulting in “little to no effect” on COVID mortality, even though they came with immense collateral damage. A United Nations report published last year noted that COVID disruptions resulted in some 239,000 “maternal and child deaths” in South Asia alone, while the US saw a record number of drug overdoses, a surge in youth suicide, and an unprecedented drop in cancer screenings that will be felt for years to come.

While the vaccines have helped reduce COVID deaths and hospitalizations, they have done little to slow the spread of COVID, in large part because of the nature of Omicron, which is highly transmissible.

A committee of scientists who advised the regional government of Catalonia pointed out that Omicron, which has a high rate of transmission even before carriers experience an onset of symptoms, has rendered vaccine passports largely ineffective at reducing transmission because vaccinated individuals spread the virus at similar rates to unvaccinated ones.

“The effectiveness of the compulsory use of the Covid certificate is reduced as an extra level of security,” the scientists noted.

In other words, vaccines can protect individuals because they can reduce the likelihood of hospitalization or death from COVID, but they do little to slow or stop transmission. This makes vaccines primarily a matter of personal health, not public health.

It takes incredible arrogance for lawmakers and bureaucrats to assume they know what is best for individuals. But that quality—arrogance—is precisely what we’ve seen since the very beginning of this pandemic.

“To think one can [suppress] a very contagious respiratory virus is stupid and arrogant,” Harvard epidemologist Martin Kulldorff recently noted on Twitter. “We need leaders that are smart and humble.”

The last word there—humble—is important.

In his acceptance speech for the Nobel Prize entitled The Pretense of Knowledge, the economist F.A. Hayek warned that a lack of humility could lead modern man “to do more harm than good in his efforts to improve the social order.” With the power of the state at his fingertips, combined with his command of the sciences, Hayek feared modern man would fail to realize that there are limits to his knowledge and to his ability to shape society effectively.

“There is danger in the exuberant feeling of ever growing power which the advance of the physical sciences has engendered and which tempts man to try, ‘dizzy with success’, to use a characteristic phrase of early communism, to subject not only our natural but also our human environment to the control of a human will,” Hayek noted.

Hayek concluded his remarks with a warning. The student of society should learn “a lesson of humility” by recognizing “the insuperable limits to his knowledge.” If he failed this test of humility, the fatal striving to control society stood to make man “a tyrant over his fellows…[and] the destroyer of a civilization which no brain has designed but which has grown from the free efforts of millions of individuals.”

Hayek’s fear, one presumes, was of socialism. The COVID state, however, was born of the same hubris—the belief that central planners could use the power of the state to suppress and vanquish a highly contagious respiratory virus, something never tried before in human history.

Regrettably, yet predictably, the COVID state failed, and its mad experiment caused grave damage to society and science. Many European countries are finally accepting this reality, at least tacitly. But as for the Biden administration, it’s still unclear whether they understand the crux of the problem.

On Wednesday, the US Army announced soldiers who refuse vaccination for COVID-19 will be discharged—regardless of whether they’ve already had COVID (which the CDC admits offers powerful protection from the virus).

Many US Army soldiers will be left with a bitter choice, just like Katharina Teufel-Lieli, an Austrian musician who is one of tens of thousands in that country who have joined demonstrations to resist making the COVID vaccine compulsory.

Austrians face fines up to $4,100 if they don’t comply with the government’s order, but Teufel-Lieli says she’ll not bow to the pressure.

“I have the right to decide over my body… to simply say ‘no,'” the harpist recently told Agence France-Presse at her home near Salzburg.

Fortunately, more and more people in Europe and beyond are beginning to agree with her.

Billboards Call Out Cuellar for Refusing to Sign Term Limits Pledge

SAN ANTONIO, TX /PRNewswire/ — U.S. Term Limits is calling out Rep. Henry Cuellar (TX-28) for refusing to sign the U.S. Term Limits pledge that promises to co-sponsor the U.S. Term Limits amendment for congressional term limits in a series of billboards in his district. The introduced amendment calls for 6 years total in the U.S. House of Representatives and 12 years maximum in the U.S. Senate. The billboards are meant to educate the voters of the district about Cuellar’s adamant refusal to support congressional term limits. Recent polling by RMG Research shows 84% of likely Democratic voters in his district favor congressional term limits. Cuellar’s Democratic opponent in the primary, Jessica Cisneros has signed the pledge. The polling also shows that when Democratic primary voters are made aware that Cisneros supports congressional term limits and Cuellar does not, she surges to a lead over Cuellar who has consistently refused to sign the term limits pledge.

House Joint Resolution 12 (HJR12) has 77 House members on board. Support is expected to exceed 100 members in the next session of Congress. The U.S. Term Limits amendment has been introduced in Congress calling for six years total in the U.S. House of Representatives and twelve years maximum in the U.S. Senate. Senate Joint Resolution 3 (SJR3) has 16 sponsors and cosponsors.

“Since entering office in 2005, Henry Cuellar has refused to sign the term limits pledge despite the fact that his constituents favor congressional term limits,” said Nicolas Tomboulides, Executive Director of U.S. Term Limits. “These billboards are meant to educate voters of the 28th District that Representative Cuellar does not support congressional term limits.

“Congressional term limits is not a Democratic or Republican issue, it is an American issue,” concluded Tomboulides. “In this polarized political environment, the need for congressional term limits is the one issue all Americans agree on except for Henry Cuellar.”
