Matt Margolis author and contributor to PJ Media: Don’t jump for joy just yet. Just because COVID may be coming to an end soon doesn’t mean mask mandates, vaccine mandates, and other COVID restrictions will simply disappear.I hate to be cynical, but considering how leftist government officials have proven themselves unwilling to give up their COVID-era control over people, it seems likely that “life will find a way” for them to continue indulging their lust for power.

Andrea Widburg contributor to American Thinker: In ancient times, pagans sacrificed children to propitiate angry, erratic, and inscrutable gods, hoping that giving up their most precious possessions would save the entire community. Leftists are still doing that, not just with abortion, but with their COVID policies and the madness of their decriminalizing crime.

John Daniel Davidson contributor to The Federalist: So is Sen. Josh Hawley’s willingness to  speak candidly   about the need for American men to stop playing video games and watching porn, and embrace responsibility and family life. For his trouble, the corporate press has held him up as an avatar of toxic masculinity. No wonder: real manliness of the kind Hawley promotes is everything the left stands against, which is why they want to destroy it.

Sundance contributor to The Conservative Treehouse: The same people who told us to appreciate saving $0.16 on our July 4th BBQs last summer are now taking the official position there is no massive food inflation.  [DATA HERE] Those skyrocketing prices you think you see at the grocery store are not real.  Those announcements of forecasted price increases by the food producers, well, those are not real either.  So sayeth the United States Dept of Agriculture (USDA).

Brian C. Joondeph, M.D. contributor to American Thinker:  As to NOW’s core issue of LGBTQIA+ rights, “NOW is committed to fighting discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity in all areas including employment, housing, public accommodations, health services, child custody, and military policies.” There is no mention of athletics.

Daniel Greenfield contributor to Frontpage Magazine: There’s hardly a Muslim terrorist attack committed by a single perpetrator in Europe or America in the last five years that the authorities and the media haven’t tried to spin as mental illness.

Hoft: Liz Cheney’s Jan. 6 Committee Subpoena 14 GOP Stand-In Electors to Testify Including Georgia GOP Chair

The list includes stand-in electors from seven battleground states including Nevada GOP Chairman Michael McDonald and Georgia GOP Chairman David Shafer. The subpoenas come on the same day that a Pennsylvania court ruled mail-in voting was unconstitutional in the state — the crux of the Trump administration’s lawsuit to decertify the 2020 election. The sham continues.

Attorney Wally Zimolong walks Steve Bannon through the facts of his lawsuit in Pennsylvania, in which the court today agreed that the law of Pennsylvania does not allow “no excuse” mail-in balloting.

Sundance: Sunday Talks, Lindsey Graham Goes Full Color Revolution, Supports Race-Based Political Judges, Unilateral War Against Putin and J6 Targeting
Senator Lindsey Graham is the male version of Hillary Clinton, complete with purple tie uniform today.  In this interview the full DeceptiCon Senator Graham is on display; remarkably so.  For this exhibition CBS’ Margaret Brennan plays the role of Sean Hannity. Senator Graham starts by showcasing his support for the Biden gender and skin color rules for a black, female nominee to the Supreme Court.  The South Carolina senator then proposes a war with Russia using Ukraine regardless of whether Ukraine or any other European country supports it.  Finishing off the agenda of the deep swamp, Graham proclaims his support for the indefinite detention of J6 protestors who he said, “deserve to have the book thrown at them.”

U.S. SENATE

Biden Legal Adviser: Kamala Harris Doesn’t Have Power to Break a Tie for Biden’s SCOTUS Nominee
Liberal Harvard Law School professor emeritus Laurence Tribe is holding to his position, first voiced during the Trump administration, that a vice president cannot cast a tie-breaking vote to confirm a Supreme Court nominee. President Joe Biden has known Tribe since the 1980s and has sought his counsel on numerous matters over the years, including on extending the eviction moratorium last summer, according to The Washington Post. In September 2020, Tribe authored an opinion piece for the Boston Globe arguing that then-Vice President Mike Pence did not have the constitutional authority in his role as president of the Senate to break a tie to confirm a Supreme Court nominee. “While the vice president has the power to cast a tiebreaking vote to pass a bill, the Constitution does not give him the power to break ties when it comes to the Senate’s ‘Advice and Consent’ role in approving presidential appointments to the Supreme Court,” the constitutional scholar wrote.

BIDEN’S UNCONSTITUTIONAL VACCINATION MANDATE

Sundance: Military Database Shows Alarming Increase in Adverse Medical Conditions After Forced COVID Vaccination
The data on adverse medical conditions that surface after vaccination within the military is contained on a system called the Defense Medical Epidemiology Database (DMED).  The documents that were released to Thomas Renz are now being reviewed {Direct Rumble Link}.  The resulting information is very disturbing.  The research took five-year averages of medical conditions and then compared the track record to the results after the mandatory military vaccination program was initiated.  The results are alarming: Heart Attacks +269%  Pericarditis +175%  Myocarditis +285%  Pulmonary Embolisms +467%
Cerebral Infarction +393%  Bell’s Palsy +319%  Guillain-Barre +250%  Immunodeficiencies +275%   Menstrual Irregularity +476%  Multiple Sclerosis . . .

Tragic: 33-Year-Old Father Dies After Developing Autoimmune Disease From Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine
Brandon Pollet suffered a severe reaction 48 hours after his second COVID vaccination. According to his doctors, the COVID vaccine had caused Brandon an immune response that led to the development of an autoimmune disease. “Brandon had no prior medical history,” Brandon’s wife Jessica Pollet said. “After his second Pfizer vaccine, Brandon developed a headache right away then fever 48 hours after,” Herald Guide reported. […]  His first hospital stay was from October 21 to November 2. After coming home from the hospital Brandon was still very sick at home. He couldn’t bring his fevers down and he was very weak and now he is currently back in a hospital in New Orleans in ICU and has been there since December 12. He is being treated for Stills Disease and Adult onset HLH disease.[…]  Jessica Pollet shared on her Facebook account that Brandon fought till his last breath. “I’m sorry, I tried to beat it,” Brandon said as he was dying.

GOVERNEMENT HAS SEIZED CONTROL OF HEALTH CARE

Manno: North Carolina man is denied life-saving kidney transplant despite offers from 100 prospective donors because he refuses to get a COVID-19 vaccine required for the operation
An unvaccinated North Carolina man who needs a life-saving kidney transplant – and has been offered an organ by 100 people – has been denied the surgery by doctors because he refuses to get a COVID-19 vaccine. Chad Carswell, 38, strongly believes that getting the vaccine should be a choice and doesn’t think it’s very effective in preventing infection. ‘I’ve had COVD twice so I’ve developed natural antibodies,’ the Air Force veteran told DailyMail.com on Sunday when asked about his reasons for refusing the shot. ‘A lot of scientists say I’m more safe from my natural antibodies. It’s more to do with the fact that they’re trying to force you to do something,’ he said. Carswell has had six heart attacks and is a double amputee. His kidney is operating at four percent capacity and he undergoes dialysis – a process that removes toxins from the blood, typically removed by healthy kidneys – three times a week.

Holt: Florida Doctor: Families Sneak Ivermectin to Loved Ones in Hospitals With COVID-19, See Improvement
A Florida doctor says families of loved ones hospitalized with COVID-19 are resorting to desperate measures when approved treatments have failed. And when it’s not too late, some have seen tremendous success by sneaking medications prohibited by hospitals to patients, says Eduardo Balbona, an independent internist in Jacksonville. […] He learned later that she’d filled the prescriptions, took the medications to the hospital, and gave them to her husband. By Tuesday, the man was discharged and fully following the protocol Balbona prescribed. A few days later, he was off the oxygen. Now, he’s recovering, Balbona said. But they’re afraid to share their good news publicly. “The people who snuck in the ivermectin… they are scared to death,” Balbona said. “She is sure that the government is going to find out who she is” and possibly arrest her for giving medications not approved by the hospital. He said she told him, “I did it. I knew it was wrong. I don’t know what the penalties are. What could they do to me?” And that’s the real crime, Balbona believes. {NOTE: The original article appeared in The Epoch Times.]

BIDEN/HARRIS/OBAMA REGIME: TRANSFORMING FOREIGN POLICY

Krumholz: How U.S. Warmongers Are Pushing China And Russia Into A Dangerous Alliance
China, Russia, and Iran have held a joint naval exercise in the Persian Gulf. This occurred the same week as Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi’s visit to Moscow. A burgeoning coalition like this should raise concerns in Washington about the unintended consequences of America’s foreign policy. Russia and China are increasingly cooperating militarily and collaborating on technology including aviation and weapons. In summer 2021, the two countries held military drills in China, then naval drills in the fall. Adding Iran to these naval drills is relatively new, only having first occurred in 2019. […]  The inarguable reason for increasing Russian and Chinese military cooperation is hawkish and interventionist foreign policy in Washington, pursued on a bipartisan basis and pushed by many entrenched elements in the American foreign policy and intelligence bureaucracy.

CHINA: AMERICA’S MORTAL ENEMY

Hoft: LAWRENCE SELLIN: China’s Military May Be Making a New Human-Infecting Coronavirus Deadlier than COVID-19
There was much concern expressed in the international media recently about a potentially more transmissible and more lethal coronavirus called “NeoCoV,” described in a January 25, 2022, scientific article published by Chinese scientists from Wuhan University. NeoCoV is a member of a group of coronaviruses, one of which caused the 2012 Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) outbreak that killed 34% of the approximately 2,500 people it infected. [Note: Lawrence Sellin, Ph.D. is retired U.S. Army Reserve colonel and a veteran of Afghanistan and Iraq. He had a civilian career in international business and medical research.]

Hubbard: Chinese Communist Party takes advantage of COVID control measures
The Chinese Communist Party has taken advantage of COVID-19 mandates to monitor citizens and limit the rights of anyone who may not align themselves with the regime by hiring millions to surveil citizens in the name of public health. Human rights lawyer Xie Yang told The New York Times how police warned him not to visit the mother of a Chinese dissident in Shanghai. Xie’s health code app on his phone showed green, meaning it is fine to travel, so Xie went to the airport. Suddenly, his app turned red, and he was flagged as high-risk, despite the fact that he had not traveled in weeks from his home city of Changsha, which did not have any COVID infections. Airport security attempted to force Xie to quarantine, but he resisted and accused government authorities of changing his health app to prevent him from traveling. “The Chinese Communist Party has found the best model for controlling people,” . . .

BIDEN/HARRIS/OBAMA REGIME: TRANSFORMING AMERICA

Bois: Biden Filibustered a Black Woman Judge’s Nomination for Two Years
President Joe Biden has pledged to nominate the first black woman to the Supreme Court, but he seems to have forgotten about the time he filibustered a black woman judge’s nomination to America’s second-highest court for two years. Way back in 2003 through 2005, when Joe Biden was still a Democrat senator from Delaware, President George W. Bush nominated Janice Rogers Brown to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, but due to her conservative views, Joe Biden and the Democrats filibustered her nomination, blocking a final vote on her confirmation. Bush nominated Brown for the District of Columbia Circuit in 2003 after she served as a justice on the California Supreme Court since 1996; she did not get confirmed until June 8, 2005. Newsweek provided more background on her conservative legal views: . . .[…]  “He voted three times against confirming her just to be a U.S. circuit judge. I mean, this wasn’t even to the Supreme Court. So, race and gender, they only count if you’re thought to be a committed judicial activist, judicial leftist,” Fox News host Laura Ingraham said last Wednesday.

Greenfield: While Biden Worries About Ukraine, 13,000 Russians Invaded U.S. Border
Are the Russians invading the Ukraine or the United States? Currently, it seems like a lot more of them have been crossing our border. Maybe we could take a break from pondering where Russians will invade the Ukraine and ask why our government is failing to secure our border against the Russians and the entire world.

War Room: Biden’s Disastrous ‘Central American Minors’ Program
“It’s called the Central American Minors program, and what the Biden administration is doing is, people from certain countries, whether it’s El Salvador, Honduras or Guatemala, when they get in here and claim asylum, they can immediately have their kids flown in, at taxpayer dollars, to the United States to join them. Completely illegal.”

Bartow: Under Biden Proposal, Everyone Including Kids Could More Easily Get Transgender Surgery
The Biden administration is pushing for more insurers, and thus anyone who buys their insurance, to cover transgender surgeries. Such genital, breast, and facial surgery, as well as hormone therapy and more, would be considered “medically necessary” for those wishing to identify with the other sex.
Discrimination based on race, color, national origin, sex, age, or disability is prohibited in federally funded health-care facilities under the Affordable Care Act, passed during the Obama administration. A proposed rule, issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services on January 5, would add “sexual orientation and gender identity” to that list. The rule “places ideology ahead of sound medicine,” the Ethics and Public Policy Center said in a comment Thursday opposing the rule. It “is without legal support, contradicts long-standing scientific understandings of the human person, attempts to evade court injunctions, promotes harm to patients (especially minors), tramples religious freedom,” and more, according to the EPPC.

Hawkins: Chuck Schumer Pushes $1.5 Billion for Gun Control
Schumer commented his desire to get the ATF involved in the task force, saying, “The ABCs of beating back the scourge of gun violence depends on three federal letters: A, T, and F.” He added, “I am pushing for $1.5 billion dollars in federal funds for the agency, so they can help with this work and do much more at the national level … Without the $1.5 billion … these plans will not have their full impact, and we need full impact to address the flow of these crime guns in our communities and across our state.” […]  New York has some of the most stringent gun controls in the nation, including a gun control that bars felons from possessing firearms.

Morris & Boyle: US Attorney Doc: IRS Issued Grand Jury Subpoena to JPMorgan for Hunter, James Biden Bank Records In Probe into Biden Family’s China Connections
The document appears to show that as President Biden was launching his campaign that spring, federal prosecutors in the U.S. Attorney’s office in Delaware had impaneled a grand jury and were demanding the production of bank records relating to Hunter and James Biden, as well as two of their business associates Devon Archer and Eric Schwerin. While it has been reported that subpoenas were issued in a Hunter Biden criminal probe from federal investigators, the level of detail this document contains has never been reported.

Schnell: Democrats topped GOP in raising, spending ‘dark money’ from undisclosed donors in 2020: report
Democrats reportedly outpaced Republicans in raising and spending so-called “dark money” from undisclosed donors in 2020, according to a new investigation from The New York Times. The Times found that 15 of the most politically active non-profit organizations that typically support the Democratic Party spent more than $1.5 billion in 2020, while 15 similar groups that usually side with the GOP used about $900 million.

DEMOCRAT PARTY’S MARXIST PLAYBOOK: CRT (WOKE INDENTITY POLITICS)

Enloe:  Anti-Defamation League sparks backlash after changing definition of ‘racism’ on website: ‘Racial hierarchy that privileges white people’
The Anti-Defamation League drew sharp criticism this week after it was discovered the organization changed the definition of “racism” on its website to align with what critics say is critical race theory. According to the ADL, racism is the “oppression of people of color” through systems that privilege white people.
“The marginalization and/or oppression of people of color based on a socially constructed racial hierarchy that privileges white people,” the ADL’s definition of “racism” reads. The website states the page was last updated in July 2020. Prior to the update, the ADL’s definition of “racism” did not narrowly pit one racial group against another, but spoke broadly about beliefs of superiority and inferiority. […]  In addition to being accused of promoting CRT, Jews observed how problematic the definition change is considering  . . .
