Leftist Medical Orgs Try To Shut Down Debate On Vaccines

Left-wing medical associations have banded together to block an upcoming federal meeting in an attempt to table vaccine discussion and debate in a public forum.  

The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), set to meet Feb. 25-27, is expected to discuss the recently updated childhood vaccine schedule. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and its cohorts are attempting to suppress open exchange through a court-ordered injunction scheduled for a hearing on Feb. 13. 

Shouting Down Dissent 

In January, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention cut the number of recommended vaccines for American children from 17 to 11 following an executive order to investigate the vaccine schedule. The comparative report found that the U.S. schedule demands far more injections than other developed nations. Several vaccines on the schedule had never undergone large-scale double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized trials before being approved by the Food and Drug Administration, safety reviews have been incomplete or nonexistent for decades, and liability protections for vaccine makers incentivize production over protection.  

The update is reasonable, aligning the U.S. with most other developed nations; but the American Academy of Pediatrics responded with outrage, blasting the government’s “dangerous” decision-making and adding another complaint to its 2025 lawsuit against Health and Human Services (HHS). 

The updated recommendations are “causing unnecessary confusion … compromising access to lifesaving vaccines and weakening community protection,” railed American Academy of Pediatrics President Dr. Andrew D. Racine. A co-plaintiff organization official warned of the threat of “increased illness and suffering by children and their families,” if the updated schedule is enacted.  

None of this is expected based on comparative data, but the American Academy of Pediatrics’ response continues to follow the same pattern — shout down dissent and sue to suppress debate. 

In June, the American Academy of Pediatrics protested HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy’s removal of all 17 Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices members, calling Kennedy’s replacement picks “vaccine skeptics” and the overhaul “an escalating effort by the Administration to silence independent medical expertise and stoke distrust in lifesaving vaccines.” 

The group then sued Kennedy for allegedly violating federal law in changing Covid-19 vaccine recommendations for children and pregnant women, amended the suit multiple times with additional complaints, and filed for an injunction to stop Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices from meeting altogether later this month.

White Liberals Think Black Voters, Married Women Are Too Stupid To Get Voter ID

Elite white liberals think black voters are helpless, incompetent, and stupid. They don’t think too highly of married women and rural Americans, either. Or poor people and Native Americans and the disabled for that matter. 

That condescension was on full display again this week as all but one House Democrat voted against a bill that would require documentary proof of citizenship to register to vote and a photo ID at the polls. The measure passed on a party-line vote.

Why would the “Party of the People” be so vehemently opposed to a proposal overwhelmingly supported by the people — black people, brown people, white people, male and female people, even people who identify as Democrats? 

Because the SAVE America Act, as the bill is dubbed (and its antecedent, the SAVE Act) is a modern-day “Jim Crow” bill, according to Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.   

“While the specific policies may have changed since the days of the Jim Crow South, the goal of the SAVE Act is the same: disenfranchising American citizens and making it harder for eligible people to vote, particularly low income Americans and people of color,” the New York Democrat said this week on the Senate floor. Think about that. legislation requiring voter ID is tantamount to the “separate but equal,” segregated South, according to representatives from the party that brought America the Jim Crow era.

Democrat allies like the group Reproductive Freedom For All, the abortion industry lobby formerly known as NARAL Pro-Choice America, echoed the party’s race-baiting talking points.  

“This legislation targets Americans who have long faced systemic barriers to the ballot box, including communities of color, people with disabilities, young people, Indigenous voters, and voters in rural and low-income neighborhoods,” the abortion-on-demand champions declared in a press release. 

And what are the systemic barriers? Liberals claim — without ever being challenged by a complicit corporate media — that tens of millions of Americans “don’t have proof of citizenship readily available” and don’t know how to or can’t acquire identification. Of course these same “disenfranchised” Americans are daily using IDs to drive, buy booze and cigarettes, apply for government benefits, board an airplane

‘A Good Way To DESTROY Your Country’: Rogan Blasts Democrats’ Open Border Insanity

Joe Rogan has zeroed in on the Democrats’ border fiasco, calling it a direct path to America’s downfall by inviting criminals and chaos across the line.

The podcast powerhouse argues that while the U.S. was built by immigrants, unchecked entry under Democratic policies is flooding the nation with murderers and cartel thugs, all in an effort to populate cities with voters loyal to the left—pure political gamesmanship at the expense of public safety.

Rogan laid out the stark reality of America’s immigration roots clashing with today’s border free-for-all.

“The whole thing is tough now because we’re a country that’s established by immigrants, but you can’t have an open border. You can’t just have anybody come through because there’s going to be a bunch of criminals that come through, and you don’t want that. You don’t want your country to be more crime infested,” Rogan said.

“You don’t want your country to have murderers and cartel members just coming into the country and now getting citizenship and being able to vote and organizing, and that’s crazy. That’s a good way to destroy your country,” Rogan urged.

He further accused Democrats of turning illegal immigration into a cynical tool for power grabs, overwhelming sanctuary cities and stacking the deck in swing states.

“When you just let everybody in, and you let in 10 million people, and how do you — unless they get arrested while they’re here — what do you do? And even then, like a lot of them during the Biden administration, they were getting let go. In sanctuary cities [they would let] people go. It’s just crazy,” Rogan said.

He added, “Because they just want a bunch of people in these swing states for the census. So they get more congressional seats, and if they get these people and give them the ability to vote, now you have a built-in voter base. You can just rig the election.”

This critique comes amid the fallout from Biden-era policies like the CHNV migrant parole program, which fast-tracked over 530,000 nationals from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela into the U.S. with legal status and work permits—straining resources and enforcement to the breaking point.

Massachusetts Dems join Pelosi school of get-rich-quick schemes

A growing number of Democratic lawmakers – including several in Massachusetts – are following the Nancy Pelosi school of get-rich-quick schemes, a sure-fire way of seeing your family wealth skyrocket while serving in Congress.

Ayanna Pressley, Elizabeth Warren, Katherine Clark, Ilhan Omar have all become richer – some astonishingly so – after stepping in the cash-lined halls of the Capitol, whether it’s from their husband’s businesses, their stock portfolios or their book deals.

Far left “Squad” member Pressley’s rise from nearly zero to up to $8 million in net worth, fattened by her and her husband’s four rental properties in Mattapan, Boston, Fort Lauderdale and Martha’s Vineyard, is drawing increasing scrutiny, as she bristles at questions about her newly-acquired wealth. Pressley and hubby Conan Harris sold the half-million-dollar Florida pad for a $67,000 profit in 2024.

“I wish you people would stop reporting fake news,” a heated Pressley, surrounded by a team of security in black SUVs, said in Washington when confronted by a reporter recently. “You don’t know anything about me and my life. I was raised in a single-parent home. Every single thing my family and I have we have earned. And you are reporting fake news. Do your homework.”

Pressley, who makes $174,000 a year and like Warren has railed against tax breaks for the wealthy, also told Fox News “there’s nothing to see here” about her financial rise.

“Sir, I submit a financial disclosure, just like everybody else,” she said.

Squad member Omar and her husband, Tim Mynett, who owns several businesses, had almost nothing when she was first elected, but her net worth reportedly exploded in just a few years to $25 million.

The Republican-led House Oversight Committee is now investigating Omar’s mysterious rise to wealth, which comes amid a federal social services fraud probe in her home district in Minnesota.

“We’re going to get answers, whether it’s through the Ethics Committee or the Oversight Committee, one of the two, “ Oversight chair James Comer (R-Ky.) told the New York Post. “There are a lot of questions as to how her husband accumulated so much wealth over the past two years. It’s not possible. It’s not. I’m a money guy, it’s not possible.”

Warren’s net worth has risen to a reported $10 million from book deals and her Senate salary. Known for her rants against billionaires and standing up for the little guy, she holds mutual funds worth an estimated $1.76 million. The Cambridge Democrat and her husband, Bruce Mann, reported earning more than $912,000 in 2024, according to their tax forms.

Clark and her husband, Rodney Dowell, are worth more than $14 million, making a cool $458,000 in the stock market last year before stopping trading, according to reports.

She was estimated to be worth $6.8 million in 2018, before her rise to Democratic House Whip, which is second in command to the House Minority Leader.

The STOCK Act, signed into law by Barack Obama in April 2012, prohibits members of Congress from using private information given to them because of their positions for personal gain, such as stock trades.

Former House Speaker Pelosi, 85, and her husband Paul have an estimated net worth of more than $278 million, making her one of the richest members of Congress. Her investment moves in the stock market while serving in Congress have added millions to her net worth.

213 Democrats Vote Against Requiring Voter ID And Proof Of Citizenship To Vote

Nearly every single Democrat voted against legislation that would require documentary proof of citizenship to register to vote and photo ID for voting in federal elections.

The House passed the Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act 218-213. Just Democrat Rep. Henry Cuellar of Texas voted to pass the legislation alongside his Republican colleagues. A similar version, known as the SAVE Act, passed the House last year with the support of four Democrats.

The legislation now heads to the Senate, though it would need 60 votes to reach cloture. Self-described “Republican” Lisa Murkowski has already stated she would oppose the election integrity legislation, while Democrat Chuck Schumer has suggested the legislation is “dead on arrival.”

But as The Federalist’s Matt Kittle reported, Republicans — who control the Senate — could invoke the “talking filibuster,” which would force Democrats to keep talking to stall a vote on the legislation. Legislators would have no opportunity for a break and, as Kittle points out, would have to “explain to the 80 percent of Americans (including a significant number of Democrats) who support citizenship and ID requirements, why they so vehemently oppose basic election integrity.”

Some Republicans, however, don’t want to force a vote on the popular legislation, as Kittle reported — but they should.

Democrat Rep. Nadler Has to be Woken Up by Staffer During Bondi Hearing – Not the First Time! 

Democrat Rep. Jerrold Nadler (NY) had to be woken up by a staffer on Wednesday morning during a congressional hearing.

US Attorney General Pam Bondi testified at a House Judiciary Committee hearing on the Epstein files, fatal shootings of two anti-ICE agitators and more.

Nadler fell asleep just minutes into Wednesday’s hearing.

A staffer walked over to Nadler and woke him up.

Later on during the hearing, Nadler and Bondi got into a shouting match over Jeffrey Epstein’s co-conspirators.

“How many [co-conspirators] have you indicted?” Nadler asked Bondi.

“Excuse me! I’m going to answer!” Bondi said.

“Answer my question!” Nadler demanded.

“I’m gonna answer the question the way I want to answer the question. Your theatrics are ridiculous,” Bondi said.

“Chairman Jordan, I’m not gonna get into the gutter with these people,” Bondi said.

Bondi and Nadler continued to talk over each other until Chairman Jim Jordan intervened.

DC Grand Jury Declines to Indict ‘Seditious Six’ Democrat Lawmakers Who Urged Members of the Military to Defy Trump’s Orders

A federal grand jury in Washington DC declined to indict the seditious six Democrat lawmakers who called on members of military to defy President Trump’s orders.

In November, without offering any specifics, Senators Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) and Mark Kelly (D-AZ), along with Democrat Reps. Maggie Goodlander (NH), Jason Crow (CO), Chris Deluzio (PA), and Chrissy Houlahan (PA) repeatedly stated, “You can refuse illegal orders,” or “You must refuse illegal orders,” in a viral video.

CBS News and The New York Times reported that a grand jury declined to indict the ‘Seditious Six.’

CBS News reported:

A federal grand jury on Tuesday refused to indict six congressional Democrats who drew President Trump’s ire last year by taping a video telling members of the military that they must reject “illegal orders,” according to three sources familiar with the matter, including one within the Justice Department.

The Democratic lawmakers are the latest Trump foes that the Justice Department has sought criminal charges against, following former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James. After the lawmakers’ video was posted in November, the president called their comments “seditious” and demanded that they be “arrested and put on trial.”

The news of the declined indictment was first reported by The New York Times.

CBS News has reached out to the Justice Department for comment.

Two sources who were briefed on the matter told CBS News the Justice Department sought to charge the lawmakers under a criminal statute known as 18 U.S.C. § 2387.

Democrat Rep. Jason Crown lashed out the Trump Administration after a grand jury declined to return an indictment.

Eric Swalwell’s Effort to Get ICE Director Todd Lyons to Resign During Hearing Backfires Spectacularly When Lyons Catches the Leftist Spreading a Vile Hoax

Rep. Eric “Fang Fang” Swalwell (D-China) was left humiliated today after trying to con the director of ICE into throwing in the towel when an inconvenient fact was pointed out to him.

As CBS News reported, the House Homeland Security Committee held a hearing focused on the activities of ICE in the wake of last month’s fatal shooting involving two leftist activists and the partial drawdown of immigration enforcement in Minneapolis.

ICE Director Todd Lyons and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Commissioner Rodney Scott, and Joseph Edlow, director of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), all appeared at the hearing to testify.

When it was his turn to question Lyons, Swalwell had 5-year-old Liam Ramos in the background as a prop. As TGP readers know, Swalwell, his fellow Democrats, and the media amplified a wicked hoax story alleging that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) “detained” the child during an arrest operation in Minnesota.

In reality, his illegal alien father abandoned him on the street as he fled immigration enforcement.

The father, Adrian Alexander Conejo Arias, had been ordered deported by a federal judge back to Ecuador, his country of origin.

The congressman started off the interrogation by complimenting Lyons’ career before rattling off a series of what he considered abuses by ICE and misconduct by Lyons’ bosses at DHS.

Swalwell then demanded to know whether Lyons would fall on his sword and quit ICE over the hoax. Not surprisingly, Lyons said no.

When Swalwell asked why, Lyons left the congressman red-faced after pointing out the facts of the Ramos case.

Jasmine Crockett Shows Just How Low Democrats Are Willing to Go to Attack Trump

Democratic Rep. Jasmine Crockett (TX-30) slammed President Donald Trump and Republican lawmakers over the handling of the Epstein Files. But, as always, there’s a problem.

Crockett posted a video on Monday in which she addressed reporters about the matter. She referred to recent reports suggesting that Epstein’s accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell, would refuse to give answers to Congress about Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operation unless she received clemency. 

“Basically, Ghislaine was like, I’m not going to participate, but we’re not going to stop,” Crockett said. “There were those that thought we would stop when we were able to get the discharge petition done. There were those that thought we were going to stop when it didn’t seem like we had the votes once we finally got that done.”

The lawmaker said the Trump administration violated a law passed in December compelling the White House to release all of the files pertaining to Epstein and his possible collaborators. It released the last tranche of the files last week.

“Now that they have violated the law because this is actually in law, we are not stopping. So I want people to understand that House US Democrats, we are going to be on their as**s. That’s just the reality,” she said.

The reporter asked Crockett what her message would be to President Trump. “Same thing,” she answered. “We’re going to be on his a**. I mean, it is so… I don’t really know where we are in this country. Why are we even having this conversation? The United States has fallen apart right now, partially because he’s going out and randomly allowing for the killings of people in the middle of the street.”

North Carolina Democrat Sheriff Left Completely Humiliated After Repeatedly Botching a Simple U.S. Civics Question During Hearing

An elected official sworn to protect his county failed the most basic of civics questions in humiliating fashion on Monday.

As Axios reported, the North Carolina General Assembly interrogated Mecklenburg County Sheriff Garry McFadden, a Democrat, on a wide range of issues, including immigration and the deaths that occurred in county jails under his watch.

His handling of immigration received the most scrutiny, with many lawmakers blasting him for his handling of the murder of Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska last August. Blood is on McFadden’s hands because a career criminal who had no business on the streets to begin with committed the offense.

The hearing then took a rough turn for McFadden when North Carolina Republican State Rep. Allen Chesser decided to test his constitutional knowledge with a very basic question: What branch of government does McFadden operate under?

The correct answer, of course, is the executive branch, given a sheriff’s role in enforcing laws. But a clueless McFadden instead repeatedly gave the wrong answer, saying “Mecklenberg County” and “the U.S. Constitution.”

Chesser then asked McFadden how many branches of government exist (three). Unsurprisingly, the sheriff had no clue.

The Republican lawmaker went on to name the three branches (Legislative, Executive, and Judicial) to save time and asked McFadden again which branch he operated under.

Even with a multiple-choice version of the question, McFadden still got it wrong. He told Chesser his department fell under the judicial branch.

Then Chesser finally broke the truth to him.
