					<description><![CDATA[@ Barry - thanks for the ZH links.
The ivermectin one is sourced from this article, which is full of information on Merck&#039;s new antiviral and its problems, plus a rallying cry for freedom of health care professionals and patients to make unfettered, informed decisions.

“Let’s go, Biden!”   
“Let’s go, Fauci!”  

It&#039;s getting to be a long list, and I don&#039;t want to unfairly demonize any more of the real Brandons and Karens of the world, so might as well call &#039;em as we see &#039;em.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&lt;i&gt;What is it with Democrats refusing to recuse themselves from conflictual situations?
In retrospect, attorney general Jeff Sessions in 2017 should have told the Russia-gate plotters to pound sand.
But we already knew that.&lt;/i&gt;

This illustrates a weakness of Republicans in general. This is true particularly of the &quot;moderates&quot; so beloved of swamp dwellers.  They tend to focus on behavior rather than issues.  Politeness is valued above all.  I saw a good discussion of this last week but cannot recall where. Accusing Sessions triggered his &quot;niceness&quot; gene and he caved.  Parents at school board meetings loudly complaining about fascist behavior by teachers are accused of being &quot;domestic terrorists.&quot;  Remember that school board elections are  low turnout events with most voters being teachers, rather than parents. Leftists harass conservatives and especially weak &quot;moderates&quot; like Jeff Flake.  The fact that he was cornered by leftists in a Senate elevator was ignored but it was effective in switching his vote.  We will see if it is as effective with Senator Sinema.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&quot;Does the Vatican approve...?&quot;

Probably; since the Church of &quot;Woke&quot; (along with the holey, if rather flexible, catechisms of the WHO and CDC) have made significant theological headway there.

And so they&#039;re busy at the moment, mandating vaccinations for the faithful and making things uncomfortable for those who protect them (while making the ultimate sacrifice of getting into uncomfortable clown suits on a daily basis).

					<description><![CDATA[The Democratic Party specializes in conflict of interest and scandals.
They just repackage them as &quot;human rights&quot; and rebrand them as &quot;part of the process&quot; or &quot;no major scandals&quot;.

It is an understatement to say that Joe Biden (AKA &quot;Mr. Big&quot;) was the most corrupt presidential candidate in US history and that his fraudulent administration the most devious and dishonest. (Hillary was a contender for this honor---the Democratic Party bench is certainly deep!)

In their defense, one might say that they&#039;re merely &quot;doing what has to be done&quot; (given that they are gangsters); or &quot;what comes naturally&quot; (for seasoned criminals).

In related &quot;developments&quot;, the NYT---those lovelies who bequeathed us Walter Duranty and the 1619 Project(!) along with other earnest fabrications (and among the Democratic Party&#039;s hardest-working carriers of water)---is still pimping away:

					<description><![CDATA[I&#039;m going to put this on the Covid thread also, but it seems to me this also falls under &quot;conflict of interest&quot; for a lot of people. 
https://www.projectveritas.com/news/pfizer-leaks-whistleblower-goes-on-record-reveals-internal-emails-from-chief/
&lt;blockquote&gt;

Project Veritas released the fifth video in its COVID vaccine investigative series today featuring a sit-down interview with Pfizer insider, Melissa Strickler. She leaked internal emails that show corporate executives telling staff to be secretive about the use of human fetal tissue in laboratory testing of the COVID vaccine.

Pfizer’s Chief Scientific Officer, Philip Dormitzer, admits aborted fetus tissue is used in the company’s vaccine program, &lt;b&gt;but that employees should just stick with Pfizer’s polished narrative omitting any mention of aborted fetal tissue &lt;/b&gt;to avoid any issues with the public. 

“HEK293T cells, used for the IVE assay, are ultimately derived from an aborted fetus,” Dormitzer said. “On the other hand, the Vatican doctrinal committee has confirmed that they consider it acceptable for Pro-Life believers to be immunized. Pfizer’s official statement couches the answer well and is what should be provided in response to an outside inquiry.”
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Does the Vatican approve, or at least tolerate, the fetal cell connection, or does it not know?]]></description>
