Backlash against Democrats soft on crime policies comes to New York
PJ Media: Any Democrat looking for a bright spot in Tuesday’s election isn’t going to find it on Long Island in New York. The nominally Democratic region saw a GOP sweep of every major office and a repudiation of Democratic Party-supported initiatives, including bail reform. Suffolk and Nassau County residents voted against incumbent Democratic district attorneys and elected Republican county executives in a GOP blowout that has not been seen in two decades. The issue in the Nassau County district attorney race was bail reform, pushed by the incumbent DA Todd Kaminsky. Republica... read more

Tigrayan Rebel Forces Advance Toward Ethiopian Capital
*CNN: **Rebels threaten Ethiopian capital as UN slams atrocities committed in Tigray conflict* London (CNN)Troops allied against Ethiopia's central government are on the outskirts of Addis Ababa, a diplomatic source told CNN Wednesday, a day after authorities announced a nationwide state of emergency and called on citizens to take up arms to defend the capital.

The highly anticipated report ... read more
Owen Paterson and Tory Corruption
It is a dark day for parliament. By 250 to 232 votes, the Tories rescinded Owen Paterson's 30 day suspension from the Commons and scrapped the (formally) independent parliamentary standards process. Under the successful Leadsom amendment, which the cringing lackey Lindsay Hoyle was well within his rights to reject, the Tories have seized control of standards by installing a committee on which they will have a majority to decide what the new system's going to be. Quite rightly, Labour and the SNP said they're going to boycott this farce. In the meantime Paterson will carry on, still... read more

Whistleblower Reveals Fraud in Pfizer COVID Vaccine Trials as 5 to 11-Year-Olds Begin to be Injected – Vaccine Deaths and Injuries to Follow
The criminal CDC rubber stamped their approval to start injecting American children between the ages of 5 and 12 with the deadly Pfizer COVID-19 shot yesterday. As we have pointed out numerous times here at Health Impact News, children this young have a near ZERO statistical chance of dying from COVID-19. There is plenty of evidence that the FDA and CDC already know that the Pfizer shot is going to injure many children between the ages of 5 and 11. The doses are not as strong as the ones given to those above the age of 12, but there was one ingredient that was changed in the shots... read more

"A Cherokee Proverb"
"An old Cherokee is teaching his grandson about life. “A fight is going on inside me,” he said to the boy. “It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One is evil – he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.” He continued, “The other is good – he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. The same fight is going on inside you – and inside every other person, too.” The grandson thought about it for a minu... read more

But you didn’t stop. You knew what you had to do, though the wind pried with its stiff fingers at the very foundations, though their melancholy was terrible.
