Biden brags about calling overcrowded hospital to help friend’s wife get fast treatment

President Biden bragged that he personally called a Pennsylvania hospital emergency room to know “what the situation was” after a friend’s wife failed to receive immediate care because the waiting room was so backed up.

Biden said Thursday he intervened after a “good friend” called him Wednesday night to say he’d rushed his partner to the hospital because she was having trouble breathing and had a high fever.

“They got her into the hospital, but the waiting room was so crowded, things were so backed up, they couldn’t even get her to be seen initially,” Biden said during a speech in Illinois promoting the COVID-19 vaccine. 

“So, because I knew this person, I called. I called the desk, the receiving nurse, and asked what the situation was.

“And to make a long story short, it took a while because all of the — not all — the vast majority of the emergency rooms and the docs were occupied taking care of COVID patients.”

De Blasio Moves To End NYC’s ‘Gifted and Talented’ School Programs

New York City mayor Bill de Blasio (D.) on Friday ordered the total elimination of the city’s advanced-learning programs in public schools. The move is a major concession in the closing months of the mayor’s term to racial-equity activists who have long called for getting rid of the classes.

The classes, known as “gifted and talented” programs, group together elementary school students who perform well on an admissions exam they take when they’re four years old. Under de Blasio’s overhaul, the programs will be phased out, with the current cohort of enrollees being the last to learn in gifted classes through elementary school.

Critics of the gifted and talented programs say they enforce racial segregation in schools and stand in the way of racial equity. The gifted classes comprise about three-quarters white and Asian students, according to the New York Times. But an April poll found that a majority of New Yorkers support the programs.

“The era of judging four-year-olds based on a single test is over,” de Blasio said in a statement. The mayor proposed an alternative to the gifted and talented programs that would see students assessed at the third grade and offered “accelerated instruction” in classes with other students receiving standard instruction.

Armed police drag passenger off Eurostar train after staff member accused him of wearing the ‘wrong type of mask’

Eight armed, uniformed French police boarded a Eurostar train on Thursday afternoon, after it made an emergency stop in Lille, to forcibly remove a passenger who was accused of “not wearing the right type of mask.” 

The incident occurred on a Eurostar service that was traveling from Paris Gare du Nord to St. Pancras on Thursday afternoon but was halted in Lille after a train manager reportedly got into an aggressive argument with a man over his face mask, according to passengers.

Following the confrontation, the manager stated that they would be informing the police at Lille for his failure to follow Covid regulations, with the train making an emergency, unscheduled stop at the station where eight officers forcibly removed the passenger. As he left the train, the passenger, thought to be in his 40s, claimed he had been accused of “not wearing the right type of mask” and would now “be left alone in France,” calling it “very cruel treatment.”

Indiana Business Offering Pole Dancing Classes for Children as Young as SEVEN

An Indiana business is offering pole dancing lessons for children as young as seven-years-old.

The business, Tiffs Pole Fitness Inc., claims that pole dancing is not just for strippers, but is now an “international sport.”

A disturbing flyer for the classes features a likeness of Disney’s Rapunzel hanging upside down on a pole in what appears to be lingerie.

The owner, Tiffany Huebner, says that children must wear “mid/short shorts” and a tank top to the classes.

In a Facebook post, Huebner wrote “thank you to those who have shown your support for my Kids Pole Classes! I know that it’s going to take time for everyone to drop the stigma of “it’s a stripper pole” & understand that pole is an international sport now. I have patience & hope for our future generations of pole olympians & want to share an example with the public of what an international pole sport competition for kids looks like.”

They included a video of a nine year old pole dancing in a bikini.

Retail traders follow Nancy Pelosi’s husband’s stock moves to find winners

When in doubt, pick the same stocks that lawmakers’ spouses are buying? That’s what retail investors are doing when it comes to trades made by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband, Paul Pelosi, a businessman who owns a real estate and venture capital firm.

Though Nancy Pelosi herself doesn’t trade stocks, her husband does. And that’s enough for some social traders, who see his trades as hers. “We’ve been tracking their performance and every single stock she has bought in the last two years has gone up significantly,” Christopher Josephs, cofounder of Iris, told Yahoo Finance Live. Iris is a social investing app allowing users to see the same stocks friends, influencers and professionals are buying.

Trades made by lawmakers or their family members are required to be disclosed within 45 days of execution.

‘Fact-checkers’ Rush to Defend Bill Gates Disturbing ‘Vaccine Depopulation’ Statement

In their obsession to stamp-out any countervailing narratives that might damage the standing of the ruling globalist establishment, the vaunted The Fact Checkers have once again scored a dramatic own-goal.

One of The Fact Checkers’ most common diversion techniques is to gaslight readers away from the factual provenance of the claim in question – in this case that is Bill Gates statement that ‘increased vaccine levels will reduce the world population’ – and instead divert them away to some relatively obscure over-the-top remark or comment made by someone else on an inconsequential social media or blog post. By appearing to ‘debunk’ someone else’s related comment online, the fact-checkers are then able to avoid addressing the actual issue.

The ‘fact check’ is then amplified by mainstream media and major news wire services, and pumped into Twitter and Facebook news feeds. Those who believe in the whole ‘fact-checker’ canard will no doubt be reassured that Bill Gates never made the statement in question, and that anyone who quotes him saying what he said must be a crazy conspiracy theorist.  

However, it’s been over 10 years since he made his dark depopulation statement and has never once denied what he said, or even tried to walk it back.

Suddenly, 11 years later, The Fact Checkers are scrambling to try and plaster over what is one of the most high-profile radical Malthusian statement.

New York Times issues massive correction after overstating COVID hospitalizations among children

The New York Times issued a massive correction Thursday after the liberal newspaper severely misreported the number of COVID hospitalities among children in the United States by more than 800,000. 

A report headlined “A New Vaccine Strategy for Children: Just One Dose, for Now,” by science and health reporter Apoorva Mandavilli, was peppered with errors before major changes were made to the story. The Times initially reported “nearly 900,000 children have been hospitalized” with COVID since the pandemic began, when the factual data in the now-corrected version is that “more than 63,000 children were hospitalized with Covid-19 from August 2020 to October 2021.”  

The paper also botched actions taken by regulators in Sweden and Denmark and even bungled the timing of a critical FDA meeting. 

“An earlier version of this article incorrectly described actions taken by regulators in Sweden and Denmark. They have halted use of the Moderna vaccine in children; they have not begun offering single doses. The article also misstated the number of Covid hospitalizations in U.S. children. It is more than 63,000 from August 2020 to October 2021, not 900,000 since the beginning of the pandemic. In addition, the article misstated the timing of an F.D.A. meeting on authorization of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine for children. It is later this month, not next week,” the lengthy correction stated in full.
