I'm so out of the loop. The only thing on this list that I have seen is "Survivor" and I haven't watched that since 2010.

Well, the Republicans are basically Democrats from 30 years ago, so...
🚨 JUST IN: HHS Sec. Bobby Kennedy just WALKED OUT to an electric crowd at the RNC and dropped this incredible line on joining MAGA "I am 72. For 70 years of my life, I would've bet any amount of money that I would not be addressing a Republican convention!" 🔥 "I grew up in a Democratic Party of FDR, my uncle John Kennedy, my father Robert Kennedy...clear policies and inspiring idealistic vision for America. Tax cuts, strong defense and FIGHTING communism." "DOES THAT SOUND FAMILIAR?" Donald J. Trump is EXACTLY who that is now. We are so glad to have Bobby in the movement! 🇺🇸

Since when have documentaries ever been fair or balanced? That's a rule of journalism <snort> not film making.
Between 2020 and 2024, director Alex Gibney made 12 donations to Democrats, including Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Here’s a brief sampling of Gibney’s words on @elonmusk: April 4, 2022: “Mine would be: Musk ownership might be the nudge i need to quit twitter.” April 14, 2022: “Like Elon’s ‘free market.’ Definitely not free and unaffordably expensive.” September 20, 2022: Recommended a Polestar over a Tesla, adding “Bonus: when you buy one you are not giving your money to Elon Musk.” When a director hates and despises the subject they are covering, you will never get a fair and balanced documentary. I would be interested in a documentary about the person building rockets, autonomous cars, robots, a brain-computer interface, and tunnels who occasionally became a trillionaire — but the director’s clear bias makes this a predictable hit piece not rooted in truth.

Governor Shapiro's unseemly rush to Lancaster County to convene a national press conference and his giddy delight in announcing two measles deaths was a morose commentary on the contemporary political dialogue. The performance was a replay of the Democrats' COVID playbook: fearmongering, misinformation, finger-pointing, and the weaponization of infectious disease fears for political gain. The announcement appears to have been premature, and the deaths may even have been altogether fabricated by one of the Governor's hopeful staffers. The Lancaster County Coroner says that it has no record of any measles deaths. State law requires that all measles deaths be reported to the coroner. Governor Shapiro shattered tradition and violated standard public health policy by refusing to share information with the County Health Department or CDC. Since I have been in office, CDC has had a superb record of cooperation, information sharing, and professionalism with blue- and red-state governors and health officials. Those collaborations have resulted in effective control of the global measles outbreak in this country. Governor Shapiro got his headlines. He correctly gambled that the slavish mainstream media would dutifully amplify his scolding without any effort to check his facts.
Measles questions. Let’s be clear- when the Governor comes into our county and holds a press conference with PA Department of Health and Penn Medicine Lancaster general Health and states there were two “measles-associated deaths” here, with the underlying assertion that the two people died FROM measles, and they are the first deaths from measles in 35 years, and that announcement sets off numerous media reports uncritically repeating that two people died FROM measles in Lancaster County, and Lancaster County elected officials then get questions about this – it is totally fair for me to ask for relevant information on those deaths. Asking questions is not “pro-measles.” Asking for information that should have been provided at the press conference is not “anti-science.” It is simply wanting the whole story for my constituents. When officials who hold a big press conference and make big headlines – those officials owe us more than the headlines. They owe us the whole truth. They owe us accurate information by which the people of Lancaster County can make decisions about their health and safety. It has been about 24 hours since the press conference. We do not have any answers. Of course journalists should also be asking these questions rather than uncritically repeating something. Any deaths from measles are required by law to be reported to the Lancaster County Coroner’s Office. I have spoken at length with both a senior staff member from that office and the Coroner himself. They currently have zero measles deaths in Lancaster County. They have one death of a person who died WITH measles, but not from measles. We do not know if the state is counting that one. Nor do we know anything about the other death that officials reported yesterday. Is there an unlikely scenario where a patient from here got measles and sought care outside of Lancaster County and died there and it was reported to another county coroner? Yes. I am open to that or other unlikely possibilities. But if one of these unlikely scenarios is the case, the people holding the press conference had, and currently have, a responsibility to provide that information. The law DOES allow release of more information. Demographic information that does not identify the patient may be released. I reached out to Penn Medicine LGH. No response. I reached out the Governor’s office. No response. I talked with our Lancaster County Department of Public Safety Director. He has no additional information from the state. I asked questions this morning at our Board of Commissioners meeting of Commissioner Alice Yoder who was at the press conference yesterday and is a former official at Penn Medicine LGH. She did not have any answers. (This exchange is on video and will be available later today.) So as of right now, we have ZERO information that corroborates the idea that there were two measles deaths in Lancaster County. Again, everything stated could be accurate. But no one in authority has been able to say that, nor have they even tried to say it. To me it is a big deal if the Governor comes in and gives a press conference and then no one can or will identify simple details around what was stated and what then generated major news stories. Transparency is owed to the people. It is incumbent on those who held the press conference to clear this up. Immediately.

"I'm doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won't be big and professional like gnu)..." On August 25, 1991, a 21-year-old student sent a message to a Usenet newsgroup. He thought he was just building something fun for himself. 35 years later, that "hobby" is the backbone of global technology: 🚀 Powering helicopters in space with NASA ☁️ Running the global cloud and 100% of the world’s supercomputers 📱 Connecting billions of people 🎮 Redefining the future of handheld gaming What started as one student's side project became the greatest collaborative technology movement in history.

RFK Jr. says Fauci paid UNC scientist Ralph Baric to develop a technique called "no-see-em," which makes pathogens MORE dangerous and COVERS UP the evidence of human manipulation. Baric went on to teach this technique to the "Bat Lady" at the Wuhan Lab. Fauci knew this. Then spent years telling the public COVID came from a "natural origin." RFK JR: "He was lying about the origins from day one. Why was he lying? Because he funded those studies at the Wuhan lab, and he funded the studies at the University of North Carolina that developed the techniques for weaponizing COVID-19." "And then [he] gave those to Ralph Baric, his funded scientist at the University of North Carolina, gave those to Shi Zhengli, the scientist, the 'bat lady' scientist in the Wuhan lab. And he taught her a technique that Anthony Fauci had paid him to develop called seamless ligation, which is also called 'no-see-em.'" "It's a way of manipulating the virus to make it deadly to human beings and then covering up the evidence of human manipulation." "And why would anybody spend NIH money developing that kind of technology?" "It's bioweapons technology. It has nothing to do with public health. It's the opposite. It's the inverse of anything you would want to do with public health." "Well, he took that, and he gave it to the Chinese military lab at Wuhan." Fauci’s former senior adviser David Morens has now plead guilty for conspiring to defraud America by destroying federal records during COVID. He previously said: “Tony doesn’t want his fingerprints on origin stories.”

Morens ADMITS to concealing/destroying federal records surrounding COVID-19 and federal grants to avoid FOIA and the Federal Record Act.
Fauci crony pleads guilty to fraud around COVID. Former senior NIAID adviser David Morens admitted to conspiring to hide federal records from the American people. Morens worked to evade federal recordkeeping requirements and conceal communications related to the COVID pandemic. Now, he has pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit offenses and defraud the United States. He faces up to five years in prison.

Here is the head of the FDA telling the head of NIH that injury reports are flooding in but industry will not "support" any examination of them "for obvious reasons." So, the head of the FDA admits here that industry does not care in the slightest about the numbers of people it hurts. x.lingyaoai.com/SenRonJohnson/status/2…
Replying to @SenRonJohnson
THERE’S MORE: In addition to the texts, @SenRandPaul and I released an email from Dr. Janet Woodcock from May 2021. Dr. Woodcock emailed Dr. Fauci about personally receiving reports of patients experiencing hard to classify adverse events: “no one takes them seriously, no one knows how to treat them, and there is no effort to study this.” Oddly, Dr. Anthony Fauci seemed reluctant to respond to her but felt he couldn’t ignore her.   Why wasn’t the public alerted to their concerns? Why did they continue to push and mandate the COVID shot? Why weren’t Americans allowed fully informed consent? (2/2)🧵

🚨 JUST NOW: Anthony Fauci's successor, NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya, BLASTS Fauci for COVERING UP the alleged 82% MISCARRIAGE RATE for pregnant women taking the COVID vaccine "Tony Fauci was OUT OF HIS LANE, and used that power to tell America one thing when he really thought another." "I'm glad his words now can be heard by the American people... it's SHOCKING to me that he was sharing private thoughts and that, when he was out in public—and he was out in the public A LOT—he didn't share those private thoughts with the American public." "I mean, and Tony Fauci was MAJOR figure in trying to get those COVID shots past the finish line. He owed the American public some transparency."

The mainstream media faces the biggest problem they've had since Khrushchev denounced Stalin. Another hero has fallen. For years, they celebrated Tony Fauci has the embodiment of all good things: science, truth, health, courage, scholarship, media savvy. Now he has fallen, immortalized in infamy, leaving all those who bet everything on him completely exposed and humiliated.

A major theme of the Fauci diaries is the persistent thread from the very beginning Jan 9, 2020 to the end: the shot does not work as expected due to inevitable mutations. They pushed ahead anyway, and despite early and growing evidence of grave injury. Neither safe nor effective. Forced it anyway. This is as big a scandal as the lockdowns, business destruction, violations of religious freedom and censorship.

By Nov 21, 2021, Fauci is preparing the groundwork for the realization/admission that vaccination is not going to work to end the Covid issue. If you read this carefully, he is saying that actually you cannot vaccinate against this kind of virus in a way that provides immunity.
