The Top Worst Media Moments Of 2021*Becket Adams, Washington Examiner:* *The top nine worst media moments of 2021* It was not a good year for the national press. From the Chris Cuomo scandal to corporate journalists inventing stories about violent Border Patrol agents and Republican-led witch hunts, 2021 marked yet another lousy year in media credibility. Indeed, if 2021 proved anything, it’s that corporate newsrooms are perfectly content to burp out the same nonsense, make the same mistakes, embrace the same ignorance, overlook the same ethical lapses, and parrot the same partisan talking points that have made... read more

A Look Back on 2021 and A Look Ahead on How to Survive 2022
With the Year 2021 now in the rear-view mirror and Year 2022 lying in front of us, I want to take a quick look at what made headlines at Health Impact News in 2021, and look forward to what we might expect to see in 2022. As I wrote in our last article published in 2021, the roll-out of the COVID-19 "vaccines" and their reign of death and destruction was by far the main news we covered in 2021, the year The American Holocaust began. Of course the gene-altering bioweapon shots are just one component of the Globalists' plan to implement a "Great Reset" which includes crashing and re... read more

China Copied America’s E2D Hawkeye Planes*Sebastien Roblin* *Security, Chinese IP Theft, Hawkeye, Asia* The Hawkeye is a vital C2 aircraft, used for command and control. *Key point: *Nonetheless, if the aircraft is in any way comparable to its U.S. equivalent, it does bring a substantial new dimension to Chinese maritime combat operations. China has launched a new carrier-operated early warning surveillance plane that will allow it to attack further from shore without relying on ground-based spy planes. The new aircraft, called the KJ-600, was “recently spotted in Xi’an, capital of Northwest China’s Shaanxi Province,” ... read more

The 10 Worst And Best Things Biden Did In 2021*Marc A. Thiessen, AEI/Washington Post:* *The 10 worst things Biden did in 2021* In my last column, I listed the 10 best things President Biden did in his first year in office.

He canceled Operation Legend amid a record crime wave in US cities.* At least 12 major cities broke annual homicide records in 2021. Yet Biden ended the Trump Justice Department’s Operation Legend, which deployed federal officers to aid local law enforcement and helped arrest more than 6,000 criminals. Now,... read more

"A Look to the Heavens""What's happening at the center of spiral galaxy NGC 5643? A swirling disk of stars and gas, NGC 5643's appearance is dominated by blue spiral arms and brown dust, as shown in the featured image taken by the Hubble Space Telescope. The core of this active galaxy glows brightly in radio waves and X-rays where twin jets have been found. An unusual central glow makes NGC 5643 one of the closest examples of the Seyfert class of galaxies, where vast amounts of glowing gas are thought to be falling into a central massive black hole.

Meet Russia’s Version of the A-10 Warthog: The Su-25*Charlie Gao* *Russian Military, Russia* Combat experience in Afghanistan for the Soviet Union showed that that various aircraft were vulnerable to ground fire when conducting missions at low altitude. *Here's What You Need to Remember:* Overall, while the planes are broadly similar, one can see how the strengths of each plane diverge when looking into which subsystems are more developed. The Su-25 is one of the most visible signs of the Russian Air Force’s might.

It used to be a showcase for the width and depth of Radio 4's output across the year, intended to make you laugh and cry and think. This year it was almost entirely political, earnest and preachy. They weren't going to let us think for ourselves either. It was presented by Clive Myrie and Marianna Spring. They played Radio 4 highlights from across the y... read more

Biden admits his campaign was based on fallacyWashington Examiner Editorial: With the new CDC guidance essentially acknowledging what we stated here earlier, that everyone in America is going to get COVID and there is no point in fretting about infections anymore, President Joe Biden has admitted that his entire presidential campaign was based on a fallacy. The only hope he had of defeating former President Donald Trump was to use the coronavirus against him, blaming Trump for the virus's spread and promising that he would "shut down the virus, not the country." After a year, Biden has spectacularly failed in keeping this pr... read more

Texas election audit finds thousands of non citizens registered votersEpoch Times: Voting irregularities—including potentially thousands of votes cast by non-citizens and the dead—were reported during the first phase of the Texas Secretary of State’s forensic audit of the 2020 general election, but critics deemed it more of a risk-limiting audit at this point. The Texas Secretary of State’s office released its findings on Dec. 31, but the issues found are not enough to significantly impact 2020 election results of the four counties involved in the audit—Collin, Dallas, Harris, and Tarrant counties—which account for about 10 million people, or a thi... read more

Happy New Year, why is the ceiling leaking?Finding a leak on New Year's Day is never good. Finding any repairman 30 years ago was expensive on a holiday, and today in 2022, it's probably impossible to get anyone but an answering service. So, when my husband called up from his man cave and said the bathroom ceiling had a leak, I thought I knew the source. The kitchen sink has a spray alternate inside the faucet. I suspect that's not a good design. Lately I'd noticed that the pull-out spray feature had a funny leak--it was spraying where it shouldn't. And I'd notice some water gathering about the base of the faucet tha... read more
