,rumble user_c-4887331 Flashback - Dr. Janette Nesheiwat: Masks In Schools And 'The Science' rumble_video_-tj5u__qR4e,
Posted • November 24, 2024: In the grand scheme of things, "Surgeon General" is a wasteful and often counterproductive (assuming the goal is actually improving public health and not advancing special interests) position that Trump should do away with entirely. No one needs a sleazy bureaucrat in a silly admiral costume using their tax money to tell them how to live their lives — much less issuing pseudoscientific edicts for unclear and nefarious purposes, as we have been subject to for many years now. What we need, in my opinion and apparently many other Americans’ given the recent election results, is a bulldog like RFK Jr., doctor or not, to clean up the water, air, drug, and food supplies through — and I know this is anathema to conservative orthodoxy, but I believe it’s necessary in the real world with bad industry actors who don’t care about human health and often, indeed, seem hellbent on ruining it — regulations that make sense and that are applied honestly and aggressively.
But anyway, if this government bloat is to continue in perpetuity, the Surgeon General ought rightly to be someone exactly not like Janette Nesheiwat, Trump’s nominee. Nesheiwat, who specialized in emergency and family medicine, has supported vaccines that Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Trump’s nominee for HHS secretary, has cast doubts about. Janette has not just “supported vaccines”; she has actively promoted and praised censorship of dissident voices on the topic in the alleged service of Public Health™. She called the COVID “vaccines” — which are not now and never were real vaccines and which killed and maimed more people than we can perhaps ever fully account for — a “gift from God.” https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GdB_7k9WYAA4Toj?format=jpg&name=large
She also fearmongered in 2021 on nominally conservative Fox News with no pushback from the “journalist” interviewing her about COVID “putting our children in the hospital in record numbers” and, as a result, hospitals were “running out of ICU beds.” Both claims were lies. None of this garbage is what American voters signed off on when they elected Trump. (…)
,rumble user_c-4887331 Trump's Surgeon General Nominee Praised Facebook For Its Censorship During Covid rumble_video_4id4u__qR4e,
Posted • November 23, 2024: President-elect Donald Trump's cabinet picks have been mostly great so far, but Trump has a history of making bad choices. One of those bad choices, according to conservatives, is Trump's nominee for Surgeon General. No, it's not Ben Carson … it's Dr. Janette Nesheiwat, whose resume during the COVID-19 lockdowns isn't stellar. Why? Here's Nesheiwat on Fox Business praising Facebook's approach to censoring anti-vaccine "disinformation" and hoping that other social media platforms would follow suit. Trump's pick for Surgeon General, Janette Nesheiwat, praised Facebook for censoring anti-vaccine information, adding that she will "hope and pray" other social media companies do the same. -- Nesheiwat was also a BIG fan of masking and social distancing. Janette Nesheiwat endorsed masks for children, promoted COVID vaccination for all age groups, and approved of censorship by social media companies.
Look, there's a lot we didn't know about COVID. But we know it now, so why regress? This is like when former Planned Parenthood President Dr. Leana Wen told CNN in December of 2021 that "cloth masks a little more than facial decoration" and don't work — after we'd all been forced to wear cloth masks. Or when President Joe Biden promised you wouldn't contract or spread COVID if you got the vaccine. Then Biden got COVID at least twice despite double-masking and getting every booster available. But no, we don't want anyone who praised social media for censoring discussion of the vaccine and its effectiveness. Let's hope she has revised her stance on these things in light of all the new information that has come out since the time of this interview. She allegedly has … but to praise Facebook's censorship efforts? That's hard to forgive. […]
A lot of people in the replies favor Florida’s Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo, who was handpicked by Gov. Ron DeSantis, the country's best governor. So Nesheiwat was a clueless as everyone else during the pandemic, but word is that she's changed? But why her when there are so many other options? (…)
Posted • September 24, 2024: Kamala Harris surely is wracking up some endorsements. Except they're the kind of endorsements that aren't exactly going to make more people vote for you, including Liz and Dick Cheney, as well as Vladimir Putin and the IRS Agents Union. Imagine thinking that helps you, but her people are touting these things. The Lincoln Project has even put out a cartoon ad featuring Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Dick Cheney. I'm sure they thought it was clever, but I don't think they realized -- because they're perpetually clueless -- what a great ad for former President Donald Trump this is. The ad has Sanders calling Cheney a "warmonger" and Cheney in return calling Sanders a "commie." -- The Lincoln Project @ProjectLincoln: “Bernie Sanders and Dick Cheney are united on something… that tells us all we need to know.”
"I'm still on the left," Sanders says, while Cheney says he's still "on the right," as they play poker together. "But if we can agree on Trump," Sanders declares. "It means something big," Cheney replies. "Bigger than policy," Sanders says. "Bigger than ideology," Cheney responds. "We're both voting for Kamala Harris," Bernie explains. "Because it's a choice between America," Cheney says. "Or Trump." Sanders finishes. So they really think endorsements from a "commie" and a "warmonger" are good things, that's what they're telling us? That tells us something all right, that when it comes to keeping the establishment candidate they will do anything, throw under any principle or ideology, to keep the oligarchy in power. Not to mention the execrable Lincoln Project endorsing Harris. What an ad for Trump that is. When all the bad come together, you know to vote for the other side.
But that wasn't the only cringey ad for Harris. "Nanny" actress Fran Drescher posted one on TikTok that was sort of a spoof on the "Nanny." But again, like the ad above, it came out looking like a mocking of Harris, "The Kammy." -- Libs of TikTok @libsoftiktok: “I saw it so now you have to. Can’t you feel the joy?” -- This was a hilarious rewrite of history. "She was working at the White House, what a cool VP." Um, no. She was practically invisible except for her failure at the border and until they had to elevate her to the nominee she was the most unpopular VP in recent memory, more unpopular than the four preceding VPs. Only two were more unpopular than her going back to the 1990s: Dan Quayle and…wait for it…Dick Cheney. https://www.yahoo.com/news/fact-check-kamala-harris-most-120000844.html
"Then Biden stopped his campaign." Again, no. Biden was shoved to the side after a concerted effort to push him out by the Democrat elite because they knew he was going to lose. So they disregarded the votes in the primary of more than 14 million people. This wasn't a "George Washington" sacrifice, it was a desperate coup to try to help them win. They didn't even really care about his cognitive decline, they used it to shove him aside as a candidate but then left him there in office. "She's got brains, she's got balls," it continues, but somehow, I don't think she's demonstrated that she has either. And do they know what a woman is, that women don't have certain equipment? The "girl who turned black." Okay, I'm not even going to go there. Then again all they have is the empty "hope and joy" mantra, and even that's recycled and stolen from Barack Obama.
"Republicans are switching," it contends. Yeah, no, Adam Kinzinger and the Cheneys don't count. And if you want to talk switching, have you been checking all the former Democrats who have been fleeing to the Republicans because the Democrats have become crazy, including Elon Musk as well as black, Hispanic, and young voters? It even has the gall to claim that she's going to "save democracy" -- after disregarding the primary vote and shaping out Joe Biden. Not to mention trying to keep opponents off the ballot. They had a list at the end of people involved in that cringe-arama and they all should be embarrassed. None of this fiction told Americans why they should vote for Kamala Harris. As some pointed out, "hope and joy" doesn't feed their families. Some also laughed at how this was supposed to be pro-Harris, but It came across more as a mockery of her. So Kamala was The Nanny for Joe Biden this entire time? 🤦🏽♀️ (…)

Posted • July 18, 2024: For a week in February 2023 the small town of East Palestine, Ohio drew the focus of the nation when a Norfolk Southern train derailed in the town, leaking hazardous chemicals and burning a toxic cloud for days. Any visible sign of action by Mayor Pete and Joe Biden also seemed to be derailed, resulting in widespread criticism of the administration's handling of the catastrophe. A year and a half later, the Mayor of East Palestine, Trent Conway, appeared on the stage of the Republican National Convention in support of former President Trump and to give his opinion of Biden's performance. Mayor of East Palestine, Ohio on the White House's response to the horrific train derailment that affected his town in Feb. 2023: "For the longest time the White House was silent, and we never heard word from VP Harris. I guess we weren't their type of folks. No Hollywood elites or Wall Street billionaires live in East Palestine. Just hardworking Americans."
Mayor of East Palestine - I know a thing or two about train wrecks now and let me tell you that’s what the Biden administration has been. -- Conway knows a train wreck when he sees one. Boom. (…)

Posted • July 6, 2024: For years we've been gaslit with the nonsense from people who know better that the people who rioted for years across the country with their BLM buddies, especially leading up to the 2016 and 2020 elections, are "just an idea," as Joe Biden asserted during a presidential debate. They are a myth, Rep. Jerry Nadler said. They are vapor. A non-entity. Billions in damage and hundreds of hospitalized cops — especially along the West Coast, Messed Coast™— didn't exist. (…)
Posted • July 5, 2024: President Biden is in Wisconsin today, and on the White House's goal is to prove that he's totally up for the job. Aboard Air Force One, Karine Jean-Pierre said Biden works around the clock and "365 days a week" (…)
Posted • July 5, 2024: We've gone from all the defenders of President Biden insisting he's sharp as a tack to what everybody saw with their own eyes at the debate, and I've never seen a gaslighting effort extinguished so quickly. The White House is still in spin mode and Biden will be doing a recorded interview with Democrat operative poorly disguised as an ABC News' "journalist," George Stephanopoulos. That interview will air at 8 p.m. tonight, possibly because the WH and ABC News knows nobody wants to watch an interview with Joe Biden on a holiday weekend. Politico has an article titled "Nine questions Stephanopoulos should ask Joe Biden," but in actuality what would be most revealing is if there were no actual questions. George should just hand the president a pad of paper and a pencil, then tell him to draw a clock. But that would never happen, and everybody knows why.
How did we get here? Mostly the media, who are trying their best to drag Biden across the finish line, accusing the Right of a "disinformation campaign" about Joe via "cheap fake" videos. Those were of course merely actual videos of Biden that show how feeble he's gotten. The examples of that media effort are many, but I'll single out CBS News because their propaganda effort to cover for Biden was particularly egregious. This is from just two weeks ago: CBS News @CBSNews: “Misleading video clips of President Biden watching a skydiving demonstration at the G7 summit in Italy went viral last week, prompting the White House to say Biden is victim to a simpler version of "deepfakes." So, what are "cheap fakes"? CBS News Confirmed Executive Editor Rhona Tarrant explains.” -- As Joe Concha notes here, there will be no apologies, just like "Hunter Biden's laptop is disinformation" and "Russia collusion": Joe Concha @JoeConchaTV: “No apologies coming…”
The old saying of "no matter how much you hate the media, it isn't enough" holds true. The part that should be the most embarrassing for CBS News (if they were capable of that emotion) was when they had to pull a video condemning the Right for sharing "cheap fakes." Why was it pulled? Because CBS's own video was, in essence, a "cheap fake." CBS News @CBSNews: “An earlier post was removed as it included the wrong version of a video. This version has been updated to include the correct clip and label on the edited video.” They will of course learn nothing from this and just move on to the next piece of propaganda designed to help the Democrats. The fact that so many people still take these "news" outlets seriously helps explain the condition the country has descended into these last few years.
Posted • June 15, 2024: Politics is blood sport, and -- these days -- it seems to draw out the absolute worst people, who are willing to say and do some pretty awful things to win elected office (which then gives them control over your life). Like Taral Patel, in Texas. The Democrat Fort Bend County Commissioner was recently arrested and charged with two counts of Felony Online Impersonation and one Class A misdemeanor charge of Misrepresentation of Identity, a violation of Texas election laws. Why? Because he created a fake Facebook account, posed as a supporter of his Republican opponent, and posted racist things online to make himself the victim of racism and smear his opponent. Democrat County Commissioner Taral Patel in Fort Bend, Texas was just arrested and charged for creating a fake Facebook account & posting racist comments on himself to make it appear like his Republican challenger was a racist.
Is this guy the next Jussie Smollett? Patel got charged with two counts of Felony Online Impersonation and one Class A misdemeanor charge of Misrepresentation of Identity, a Texas Election Code violation. According to the investigation, Patel started his plot in October 2022 when he created the account with the identity of a real person in Needville, Texas including photos of the person with his family as the profile picture. He crafted the account to make it look like a Trump supporter and posted support for his Republican challenger in a racist way. (…)

Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., discusses the House considering to hold Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt, the significance of the Biden-Hur audio tapes, and the criminal referrals from Hunter and James Biden.
Ocasio-Cortez: "There is a psychic weight to living in communities that are designed to be disconnected. It affects your social life. My neighborhood that I'm from, in the Bronx and Parkchester, we have some of the longest commutes in all of New York City. It is a commute not just to work, it is a commute to do anything. It is a commute to connect socially. It is a commute to connect spiritually. These decisions are designed to disconnect, disempower and isolate people.”
The Only Way to Beat Fraud Is to Vote: In Cook County, IL, the 'tough on crime' candidate in the State's Attorney race was winning, until 10,000 mail-in ballots were found. After the 'tougher-on-crime' candidate lead by 10,000 votes in Chicago's Cook County State's Attorney race, 10,000 mail-in ballots were found due to ‘human error.’ Now, the race is separated by only 1% of votes. 'Human error', indeed. This happens time and again. Miraculously, it seems, just enough votes are found to make up the difference and push the once-trailing candidate over the finish line. While this will get you censored and suspended in social media circles, it's obvious some shady things are happening. Remember: it's not who votes that counts, but who counts the votes.
That being said, let's look at some numbers here. In the March 19, 2024 Cook County election, according the numbers reported by the Cook County Clerk, there were 1,600,364 registered voters and 287,147 voters turned out. That's about 17.9% of the entire voter base. Of that 287,147 who voted, 216,076 are Democrat and 69,408 are Republican. There's missed opportunity number one: registering voters and getting out the vote. Republicans have, by and large, written off urban areas as lost causes. Given how disaffected the black community is over immigration, crime, and other leftwing issues, there's the possibility for growth. In the State's Attorney race, there were 205,372 votes cast (less than the 287,147 total). So there are people skipping that race, 82,000 of them to be exact. Another missed opportunity. Imagine if the missing 82,000 people voted and voted for the tough-on-crime candidate.
Would there be fraud? Questionable 'ballots' found? Yes. But there is where the GOP also fails. You know the Democrat party has lawyers at the ready to challenge things on election day. Why don't the Republicans? Where is the ballot harvesting effort? Where is the encouragement of mail-in voting for those who can't get to the polls instead of saying it's a waste of time? In Virginia, the GOP’s get-out-the-vote effort not only broke records but also counteracted the traditional wave of returns from the ultra-blue D.C. Beltway region that seemingly always manages to arrive at the eleventh hour with just enough votes to wipe out the Republican lead. High Republican turnout in the rural areas saw Youngkin match or outperform Trump in every county, something McAuliffe wasn't able to do with Joe Biden's numbers.
And this is why it’s actually IMPERATIVE you go vote. Overcome the margin of fraud. Don’t sit home. Don't just "go" vote. Send in the ballot you get in your mailbox. It helps your party to vote early, so do it. Bank it, get it done, and do not leave anything to chance (like a tropical storm) or "chance" (like a broken voting machine). It can be done. It requires work. Work that Republicans need to be willing to put in at the ballot box and elsewhere.
RFK Presented His Competition a Gift Wrapped with a Giant Red Bow When He Chose Nicole Shanahan as His VP: Yesterday, I predicted the Kennedy campaign may have ended with just one announcement. Twitter pundits seem underwhelmed with the selection of Nicole Shanahan as his Vice President. What could have been a big get for his chances, not only fizzled, but seemed to actively undermine his campaign. Nicole Shanahan: She's pretty, smart, and rich, but most people can't relate to that. Perhaps a Kennedy can't understand that. RFK Jr. VP candidate Nicole Shanahan: “If you are a disillusioned Republican, I invite you to join me, a disillusioned Democrat, in this movement to unify and heal America. The vision [Bobby Kennedy and I] share is a vision of national healing. It is an America that leads the world no longer through the force of arms, but through the power of example.”
“It is an America that wages peace through diplomacy. It is an America that had become the sickest industrialized country on the Earth and turned it around. We’re gonna turn it around. It is an America with honest and transparent government institutions. Can you imagine a country whose government doesn’t lie to you?” - “I worry for the Democrat Party’s overwhelming interest in elitism, celebrity, and winning at all costs. I know this because I have been in those circles for the last eight years, and I have grown increasingly tired of it. As I re-examine my Democratic Party assumptions, I have seen conservative voters with new eyes too. I have met farmers, I have met hunters who are some of the most staunch conservationists I have ever met, who understand ecosystems better than most. I have met mothers protecting their children who are searching every possible avenue for their health.”
“And yet the Republican Party, like the Democrats, is letting them down because the actions of the party are divergent from the values that actually support individual freedom. The very failure of both parties to do their job, to protect their founding values, has contributed to the decline of this country in my lifetime. Maybe that’s why I see so many Republicans disillusioned with their party as I’ve become disillusioned with mine.” -- Unfortunately, 'disaffected' Republicans are not likely to be interested in a woman further to the Left than Kennedy. If the goal was a 'unification ticket', she was absolutely the wrong pick. You will not MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN by supporting left-wing RFK and his cop-hating and illegal-loving running mate. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. VP pick Nicole Shanahan helped route millions to pro-migrant, anti-cop groups https://nypost.com/2024/03/27/us-news/robert-f-kennedy-jr-s-vp-pick-has-a-long-history-of-supporting-criminal-justice-reform/
Nicole Shanahan, independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s running mate, has a long history of donating to soft-on-crime causes, including leading a foundation that spent big on groups opposed to mandatory minimum prison sentences and supporting the removal of police from schools. The 38-year-old, who has spoken about her involvement with criminal justice reformers in San Francisco, is the founder and president of the Bia-Echo Foundation, which has contributed more than $11.6 million to left-wing causes, according to a review of receipts by The Post. The bulk of that money, $10 million, went to the Silicon Valley Community Foundation, which passed the cash to organizations advocating for lighter prison terms and supporting lawyers representing illegal migrants in the US. Much like the ex wife of the other rich billionaire, Bill Gates, Shanahan has long donated to very far Left causes supporting illegal immigration and soft on crime policies. Again, not a powerful stance for a woman trying to woo right leaning voters.
This a great choice … for Trump. No center-right independent is gonna support a California lawyer who donated to George Gascon. This obviously hurts Biden which means Biden’s campaign volunteers in the media are gonna try to destroy Kennedy-Shanahan. Should be fun. -- Unlike most who opine on this topic, I also think it helps Joe Biden. Democrats who were looking for a lucid candidate are probably not enthused by Shanahan, either. She has no experience in politics and having a Vice President with no grasp of governing is a bit concerning. -- Camelot24 🇺🇸⚔️🟪 ☮️✨ @ClaudiaL01230: “🚨Good morning Team Kennedy☀️while I’m eager to find out more about our new VP, Nicole Shanahan, I see a lot of instant ship-jumping by people who, until now, were “all in” with Kennedy. Can we all take a breath and give this brilliant entrepreneur 1 month to see who she is?” https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GJreKnJWQAArv3X?format=jpg&name=large
Even 'Team Kennedy' supporters on-line instantly felt the tides change after the announcement. There was so much excitement for a candidate who broke the norms, but also was trustworthy. Voters hoped for a person like Mike Rowe. He has credibility and is a trusted voice. That was the kind of unity candidate so many dreamed of. At the end of the day, however, Kennedy, is well, a Kennedy. If you think I'm going to make a joke like 'Kennedys love women, after all', I'm not, even though it's funny. He's a Kennedy in the sense he's a Democrat and Democrats are Leftists. All in all, Donald Trump and Joe Biden should send Kennedy an edible arrangement as thanks for his choice. It was really that bad.
In response to Democrats in Missouri doing a reading of a book promoting transgenderism to toddlers, the Missouri Freedom Caucus read Matt Walsh’s kid’s book. Epic 😎
This was posted to the official Kansas City, MO page. A bunch of elected officials including the Mayor (D) read a book to kids for 'National Reading Day.' The book is about a young kid who decides to be transgender and changes his name. The book encourages kids to explore gender stereotypes and gender identity. This is what elected leaders are pushing onto young kids.
At least once a month I say "if you want to know what the Democrats are doing, just watch what they're accusing Republicans of." Here's a recent example just to kick things off: Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton: “Siding with Trump means siding with autocrats worldwide who cash in their power for personal gain.” https://twitter.com/HillaryClinton/status/1749509289998266699 -- Does Hillary Clinton realize she's Hillary Clinton? That's not unlike when Hillary accuses Trump of pushing disinformation even though she... well, you know what she's done. That kind of irony was on display yet again in headlines like this one from MSNBC about Special Counsel Jack Smith: In a new filing, Special Counsel Jack Smith has asked the Supreme Court to not delay Trump's election interference trial. -- “If we don’t fast-track Trump’s election interference trial we won’t have enough time to interfere in the election!”
Greg Price @greg_price11: “Jack Smith just filed a motion urging the Supreme Court to let Donald Trump's J6 trial proceed without further delay. He says that a delay would "frustrate the public interest in a speedy and fair verdict" and cause "serious harm to the government and the public" In what world does the public interest in a trial and "harm to the government" outweigh the rights of the accused?” https://twitter.com/greg_price11/status/1757907430703321476 -- Smith's interested in a "fair verdict"? Legit LOL on that one: In a 40-page response filed days before his deadline, Smith’s team on Wednesday urged the justices to reject Trump’s request and allow the trial to move ahead. “Delay in the resolution of these charges threatens to frustrate the public interest in a speedy and fair verdict — a compelling interest in every criminal case and one that has unique national importance here, as it involves federal criminal charges against a former President for alleged criminal efforts to overturn the results of the Presidential election, including through the use of official power,” prosecutors wrote. As usual, the Democrats are cheering efforts to "save democracy" by making sure that there's only one candidate on the ballot (they're also trying to keep RFK Jr. off state ballots).
Byron York @ByronYork: “Why does Jack Smith keep urging courts to speed up the Trump trial without mentioning that he, Smith, is racing to try, convict, and sentence Trump before the November 5 election? Smith's new filing says the public has a 'compelling interest' of 'unique national importance' in speedy trial, but leaves out fact that the defendant is the leading candidate for the presidency this November. Says there would be 'serious harm to the government -- and to the public -- of postponing the resolution of the criminal charges.' But why would that be? Says 'the public interest in a prompt trial is at its zenith where, as here, a former president is charged with conspiring to subvert the electoral process so that he could remain in office.' And 'in all criminal cases, delay can be 'fatal' to achieving just outcomes.' As time passes, 'witnesses may become unavailable or their memories may fade.' (Where was Smith during the E. Jean Carroll suit?) And this: 'There is a national interest in seeing the crimes alleged in this case resolved promptly.' The public has a 'compelling interest in a prompt disposition of the case.' But wait a minute! Could there be any other reason? Why can't Smith just say: There's an election November 5. The defendant is the leading candidate for president. We must decide this case before the vote. Yes, that would run afoul of Justice Department guidelines that say, 'Federal prosecutors and agents may never select the timing of any action, including investigative steps, criminal charges, or statements, for the purpose of affecting any election...' But at least he would be telling the truth.” https://www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/23/23A745/300627/20240214180323991_23A745_Trump%20v.%20United%20States_Gov.%20stay%20resp_FINAL.pdf
Sounds a lot like attempted election interference! When do the charges against Smith get filed? Also, Smith seems to think the Constitution was written for the government, not the citizens: BuzzFightYear @TheArchAngel555: “The defendant has a right to a speedy trial. Not the prosecution. Jack Smith is a power hungry thug. I hope SCOTUS smacks him down hard.” -- @amuse @amuse: “It occurs to me that the framers were worried about a defendants right to a speedy and fair trial. There isn't a right of the public to quickly prosecute defendants.” https://twitter.com/i/status/1757924381085290612 -- The public officials who think the Constitution applies to the government but not the citizens are some of the same people who want everybody to believe Trump is the "threat to democracy." It would be laughable if this wasn't so dangerous.
