Daily News Roundup
NOTABLE QUOTES
Jonathan Lange contributor to The Federalist: Without amendment, the so-called ‘Respect for Marriage Act’ will unleash lawfare against ordinary citizens and faith-based service providers.
Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) when asked if he will comply with a Republican subpoena replied: “We’ll have to consider the validity of the subpoena. But I would certainly view my obligation, the administration’s obligation to follow the law and the fact that they have disrespected the law is not a precedent I would hope that would be broadly followed. We’ll have to look at the legitimacy or lack of legitimacy of what they do.”
Dr. Joseph Mercola: Author Whitney Webb noted that science fiction writer H.G Wells once described the transhumanist future as one in which there is a physically and intellectually augmented elite class, and squat, dwarf-like, slave underclass that eats bugs and doesn’t even have the cognitive capacity to rebel. Sound familiar?
Brian Lonergan contributor to American Greatness: Agenda-driven judges and advocacy from the bench are the last thing we need as we drift further away from rule of law that has always been one of the pillars of America’s greatness. What is even scarier is that we are retreating from our own legal standards even as we fill our country with people who began their relationship with the United States by breaking our laws.
Richard McDonough contributor to American Thinker: Now that the 2022 election is over, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) has condescended to announce the Democrats’ plan to give a path to citizenship, that is, a path to the voting booth, to all the people, however many millions of them, who broke US law by sneaking into the United States illegally.
Jeffrey Folks contributor to American Thinker: Freedom means the condition of acting and thinking on one’s own, without restriction or regimentation, but if the polls are any indication, a large percentage of Americans now have little idea of what freedom entails. Otherwise, they would not elect governors and representatives intent on expanding the size and power of government. They have become comfortable with the regimentation of identity politics, political correctness, and woke thinking (an oxymoron, of course). The road back from serfdom involves defying the restrictions imposed on everyday behavior — everything from asserting parental rights over education to supporting religious freedom with regard to abortion and LGBT matters to rejecting affirmative action and the climate change agenda. Freedom is the lodestar that must guide us in every decision of life. One step at a time, it may be possible to reclaim our freedom.
U.S. HOUSE LEADERSHIP UPDATE
Winters: Most Powerful Unelected Man’: Kevin McCarthy’s Top Adviser And Closest Friend Has Lobbied For Pfizer, Jeff Bezos, And China-Linked Financial Giant.
The lobbyist for Jeff Bezos, Big Pharma, and a company the U.S. has national security concerns about could become D.C.’s “most powerful unelected man” if Kevin McCarthy becomes House Speaker. D.C. lobbyist Jeff Miller is an outside adviser to Kevin McCarthy who has his “ear.” His influence over Kevin McCarthy will shape the Republican agenda if Kevin becomes Speaker. Miller’s extremely close relationship with McCarthy is without question. Here is how Politico describes Miller’s relationship — “close confidant, travel companion, helpful fundraiser, and political consigliere.” The New York Times, meanwhile, reported they are the “closest of friends” and reported that “in Washington’s Republican circles, the relationship between lobbyist and leader is well known and Mr. Miller’s word is authoritative.” Miller’s corporate clients are then of utmost importance.

Fyre: Democrats should nominate a Republican successor to Pelosi
While it has never been done before, the Constitution provides an opportunity to choose a Speaker who is not a member of the House. Seizing that option, a magnanimous Pelosi could persuade her colleagues to propose a distinguished Republican for the role. Obviously, she would not do so without the support of the Democratic caucus and her successor as party leader, presumably Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.). For Jeffries and the caucus, the proposal would present a clear choice between working with an independent Republican Speaker open to bipartisan cooperation and facing protracted friction with an intensely partisan leader, presumably Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.), captive to the most extreme faction within the Republican caucus.

JUDICIARY
The Center Square Staff: Appellate Court invalidates restraining order against jailed True the Vote principals
The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Tuesday invalidated the temporary restraining order of two Houston-based True the Vote members serving more than a week each behind bars in the defamation case pursued by East Lansing software company Konnech and its founder and CEO Eugene Yu. […] Responding to the lower court’s demand True the Vote identify its source, two of the three Appellate Court judges asserted, “Such a demand makes perfect sense when made by a plaintiff in discovery. But the record does not reveal what sort of emergency justified the District Court’s demand for that information before the parties could file an answer… before the parties could file their initial disclosures, or before discovery could begin let alone conclude in the ordinary course.” The judges continued to excoriate the lower court’s decision. “Much less did the District Court explain what sort of emergency could warrant jailing the petitioner-defendants for not making such immediate disclosures. Rather, the District Court made clear that it was imposing its disclosure requirements because it – the District Court – wanted to add defendants to the lawsuit,” they went on.
ALL EYES ARE ON ARIZONA
Hazard: Kari Lake files first election challenge lawsuit, vows more action ahead
Arizona GOP gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake said Wednesday that she sued Maricopa County to force it to release documents about voting irregularities in the midterms, a prelude to a larger legal challenge where she’s planning to challenge the election results. “Every single rule was pretty much broken when it came to Election Day voting where they punish the people who chose to show up on Election Day,” Lake said on the Wednesday edition of the “Just the News, No Noise” TV show. “So we filed this lawsuit in court today asking the county to cough up some of the public documentation we need for our bigger lawsuit.”

Leahy: Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer’s Founding of Partisan PAC Raises Ethical and Legal Questions of Possible Misconduct
Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer is coming under increasing scrutiny after the botched election in Maricopa County, leading some to question his founding and operation of the Pro-Democracy Republicans PAC, which engaged in partisan opposition to Republican gubernatorial nominee Kari Lake in the 2022 election cycle. While Richer’s PAC claims to support Republicans, it has received money from a man who donates to almost exclusively Democrats. Francis Najafi gave $20,000 to his PAC, $60,000 to the Arizona Democratic Party, and $5,300 to Democratic Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs, who is running for governor. The PAC paid $45,000 to a PAC during the primary called Defending Arizona Values, which is run by Camelback Strategies, a moderate GOP consulting group with ties to the McCain family that raised money this past year, but spent very little on actual candidates. […] Running the PAC may also run afoul of the Arizona State Bar’s Rules of Professional Conduct. Richer is an attorney and a member of the bar. Ethical Rule (ER) 8.4 on Misconduct, which includes activities outside of practicing law, prohibits several types of behavior that operating the PAC may violate. Section (c) states . . . […] Richer has repeatedly denied responsibility for the tabulation problems that occurred during the midterm election, casting the blame on the Maricopa County Supervisors.
Mahoney: The Maricopa County Election Materially Afflicted With Errors Says Hamadeh
The Maricopa County Election was “materially afflicted with certain errors and inaccuracies in the management of some polling place operations and in the processing and tabulation of some ballots,” according to Abe Hamadeh’s lawsuit filed on Tuesday, Nov. 22. Hamadeh, the Republican candidate for Arizona Attorney General, lists many of the procedural and machine-related issues detailed in a letter sent by Arizona’s Assistant Attorney General Jennifer Wright on Nov. 19. His allegations also parallel many of the same eyewitness accounts being reported by UncoverDC and the Kari Lake campaign in a lawsuit of her own. Lake says this is not her “main lawsuit,” but she wants answers from Maricopa County. Hamadeh and the RNC seek to “judicially remedy” the canvassed returns to more accurately reflect “the will of the electorate.” Hamadeh clarifies he is not “by this lawsuit, alleging any fraud, manipulation other intentional wrongdoing that would impugn the outcomes of the Nov. 8, 2022, general election.” […] At the core of his lawsuit is the premise that there were allegedly material inconsistencies in how certain voters were treated, resulting in potential unequal treatment and the disenfranchisement of voters in violation of the Equal Protection Clause and HAVA. Hamadeh alleges that the Recorders and Boards of Supervisors in 15 counties have “in at least five respects” disenfranchised or suppressed the votes of certain voters in Maricopa County. The five counts cited related to the “erroneous count of votes and election board misconduct” include: . . .
Jones: Maricopa County Republican Committee Chair Mickie Niland Refuses to Sign General Election Logic and Accuracy Test
Mickie Niland, chairwoman of the Maricopa County Republican Committee, stated Tuesday she would not be signing the Post-Election Logic and Accuracy test results of the 2022 general election because she says the test is inadequate. “I would like a more comprehensive test. I feel the on demand printers, which are now an integral part of the vote center model, need to be part of any accuracy test,” tweeted Niland. The Maricopa County post-election test occurred on November 18th and would use the same methods as the pre-test conducted in October. The county compares the results of both tests to determine if the tabulation equipment is correctly counting the ballots.

Parisi: After Maricopa Voting Debacle, Arizona Must Reform its Election Laws
If Arizona is genuinely interested in enacting much-needed state election reforms — and it should be, especially after this month’s voting debacle in Maricopa County, the state’s largest county — it’s now or never. Or at least for the next four or eight years. Term-limited outgoing Republican Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey should call a lame-duck special session of the Legislature for the sole purpose of enacting voting reforms before the presumptive governor-elect, Democrat Katie Hobbs, can take office on Jan. 2 — after which it definitely won’t get done. (Ms. Hobbs leads her Republican opponent, Kari Lake, by 0.6 of 1%, or 17,150 votes, out of more than 2.55 million counted. The race has been called by the news media in the Democrat’s favor, but Ms. Lake has yet to concede.)

2022 MIDTERM ELECTION UPDATE
O’Connell-Domenech: Murkowski defeats Trump-backed challenger in Alaska Senate race
Murkowski won with the state’s new ranked choice voting system after neither she nor Tshibaka secured more than half of first-choice votes, according to the AP. In the second round, the incumbent took the win with 53.7 percent of the vote, to Tshibaka’s 46.3 percent. […] The results of the Alaska race took weeks to announce due to the state’s newly introduced ranked choice voting system, in which voters rank their candidates by preference. Under the new system, a candidate wins outright in the first round of voting if he or she gets over 50 percent of the vote. If no candidate meets that threshold, a second round takes place, in which the candidate that received the fewest votes is eliminated, and the votes of those who voted for the eliminated candidate are redistributed to voters’ next choice for the seat. The process continues until one candidate breaks 50 percent of the vote.

CHINA: AMERICA’S MORTAL ENEMY
Bender & Desiderio: Senators alarmed over potential Chinese drone spy threat
Hundreds of Chinese-manufactured drones have been detected in restricted airspace over Washington, D.C., in recent months, a trend that national security agencies fear could become a new means for foreign espionage. The recreational drones made by Chinese company DJI, which are designed with “geofencing” restrictions to keep them out of sensitive locations, are being manipulated by users with simple workarounds to fly over no-go zones around the nation’s capital. Federal officials and drone industry experts have delivered classified briefings to the Senate Homeland Security, Commerce and Intelligence committees on the development, three people privy to the meetings said. A spokesperson for the Intelligence Committee — which has been kept closely apprised of the counterintelligence risks — declined to comment on the briefings. The other two committees did not respond. […] “This is part of a trend of commercial drones for potentially nefarious reasons,” said Rachel Stohl, vice president of research programs at the Stimson Center think tank who closely tracks the global drone market. “We’re seeing in conflict zones, in other theaters, the reliance and use of commercial drones.” […] Chinese drone maker DJI is the world’s largest manufacturer of personal and professional drones and its products account for the majority of recreational drones in the United States.

Fazi: Why is America provoking China?
On paper, Biden’s words appear to be an encouraging sign of thawing tensions. The truth, however, is that the US-China relationship is at its lowest point since they established diplomatic relations in 1979. And much of the blame for that lies with the Biden administration. While tensions between the two superpowers have been simmering for years, the new administration has taken the confrontation with China to a whole new level. Since he was elected, Biden has taken a much more hard-line approach to Taiwan than Trump, further boosting ties with the country and undermining the “One China” policy, under which the US acknowledges that “China maintains there is but one China and that Taiwan is a part of China”, but doesn’t recognise China’s sovereignty over Taiwan. Biden has also made clear he believes the US should come to Taiwan’s defence if China were to launch an invasion — irresponsible remarks that have led the White House to clarify this would fall short of American military intervention. And yet, the presence of US warships in the Taiwan Strait and South China Sea has increased significantly this year, to which China has responded by launching extensive military exercises around the self-ruled island.

Bartee: UNREAL New Images Emerge From Chinese ‘Zero COVID’ Techno-Hell
Fueled by the obstinate inertia of the Chinese Communist Party — which would view backtracking on policy it has so publicly fully committed to as an unacceptable loss of face (an important and often misunderstood concept in Asian culture) — the government’s brutal “Zero COVID” policy runs full steam ahead.
The resulting images — the handful that leak out of China’s infamous internet firewall — shock the conscience. Science fiction isn’t so imaginative in its depictions of futuristic dystopia.

Klein: Biden & Iran Nuclear Deal Negotiations
Why the Biden administration must walk away immediately. The Biden administration has hit the pause button for now on its attempt to revive the disastrous nuclear deal with Iran known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). The U.S. envoy for Iran, Rob Malley, said last month that the Biden administration was not going to “waste time” on trying to revive the JCPOA at this time. The administration is still not willing to pull the plug completely, however. President Biden refuses to acknowledge that Donald Trump was right when he withdrew the United States from the JCPOA and squeezed the Iranian regime economically to dry up its sources of funds used to fulfill its aggressive ambitions. Since Mr. Malley indicated that there would be a temporary hold on negotiations with Iran, things have gotten worse. The Biden administration needs to immediately let go for good of any lingering wishes it may still harbor to bring back to life a deal that was fatally flawed from its inception. Iran has continued to stonewall in providing information and cooperation requested by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) regarding the presence of nuclear material particles at certain undeclared locations.

Billingsley: Biden’s Bullet Points
“Every tyranny must decide whether to rule by brutal force or by persuasion,” contended Josiah Lippincott on November 5. “Brute force isn’t an option for the modern Left. They lack the Soviet talent for mass scale political violence. Vladimir Lenin had legions of men like Yakov Yurovsky, the killer who butchered the Russian czar and his entire family, at his disposal. Does Joe Biden?” Good question. The answer might start with the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Back in 1992, the FBI’s sting operation on Randy Weaver turned deadly for Weaver’s son and a U.S. Marshal. The FBI then deployed some 400 heavily armed agents, helicopters and armored personnel carriers against a single family. The rules of engagement allowed deadly force against any family member seen with a firearm, but in effect the policy was to shoot on sight. FBI sniper Lon Horiuchi shot Vicki Weaver in the head as she held her infant daughter. She had committed no crime and there was no warrant for her arrest. Snipers are trained carefully to “acquire” their targets, so the chances the killing of Vicki Weaver was accidental, as FBI bosses claimed, range between slim and none. The following year, the FBI-military axis mounted a surge. “A host of Patton tanks were part of an arsenal of military hardware that the FBI used against the Davidians during the 51-day siege that killed 84 people,” reported Robert Bryce of the Austin Chronicle. […] This demented misanthrope has the forces for mass political violence at his disposal. As Americans protest his destructive policies, don’t be surprised if the tanks roll, the bullets fly, and the bodies fall.

Greenfield: Biden Will Let Socialist Drug Cartel Drill, Before He’ll Let U.S. Drill
There’s good news for the narcosocialists running Venezuela, also known as the Cartel de los Soles, who starved and massacred their own people, and enabled the mass smuggling of drugs into America, “Drill, baby drill.” After Biden admin officials came begging to Caracas, a deal has been struck and Chevron has been granted rights to pump oil. Meanwhile Biden refuses to allow American oil companies to drill for oil. The deal was made with Maduro: a guy who is on our most wanted list. This is what only an enemy of this country and a supporter of Marxist terrorists would do.

Kliegman: Large number of criminal juveniles entering US through DACA
Democrats and immigration activists have long claimed that amnesty for illegal immigrants who came to the U.S. as children wouldn’t include young people with a criminal history, but many of the juvenile beneficiaries of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program (DACA) were affiliated with gangs and had arrest records when granted the program’s benefits, according to a new report. George Fishman of the Center for Immigration Studies this week released a report highlighting how many criminal immigrant youths qualify for DACA but face few consequences. […] The publication comes as Democrats in Congress are preparing a legislative push before they lose control of the House early next year to provide a pathway to citizenship for recipients of DACA. The Obama administration established the program in 2012 to grant protection from deportation for so-called “Dreamers,” illegal immigrants brought to the U.S. as children.

Still smarting from Democrats’ protracted fight to get Donald Trump’s private tax records, House Republicans are planning to turn the tables and fight for secret bank records showing the timing of suspicious foreign payments to Hunter Biden in hopes of determining if any such proceeds made their way to President Joe Biden. Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.), the incoming chairman of the House Oversight Committee, told Just the News that fighting the Biden administration for access to some 150 Suspicious Activity Reports (SAR) filed by banks concerning Hunter Biden’s financial transactions would allow investigators to determine to what extent, if any, Joe Biden benefited from his son’s foreign influence peddling.

The white coat supremacist can’t seem to remember the destructive policies he imposed on the American people. If there are oversight hearings, I absolutely will cooperate fully and testify before the Congress if asked. You may not know, but I’ve testified before the Congress a few hundred times over the last 40 years or so. So I have no trouble testifying.

As it emerged in his deposition the next day, Fauci had plenty to hide. “It was amazing, literally, that we spent seven hours with Dr. Fauci—this is a man who single-handedly wrecked the U.S. economy based upon ‘the science, follow the science,’” Landry told the Epoch Times. “we discovered that he can’t recall practically anything dealing with his Covid response . . .

The transcript is not yet available and no reporters were allowed. But from the Attorneys General who brought the suit, the plaintiffs in the case and their attorney, and other parties to the lawsuit against the Biden administration, we have some information about the deposition provided by Anthony “I am the Science” Fauci. He has been the face of the pandemic response and stands accused of colluding with Big Tech to suppress dissent in violation of the First Amendment. The question of whether the deposition was to be public was itself the subject of legal attention. The Department of Justice filed to block all recording and personally identifiable information for fear of public harassment, and this condition was granted. As a result, we have no transcript (yet) and one senses a great skittishness even from those who were there to explain the fullness of what transpired. Major national media have shown no interest in getting the story. Nonetheless, we do have information thanks to some candid tweets and an article by one of the plaintiffs.

‘Medical School education is in crisis,’ William A. Jacobson said. The next generation of America’s top doctors could be more concerned about a patient’s race than previous generations. […] “Medical School education is in crisis, with ‘social justice’ and race-focused activism being imposed on students, faculty, and staff,” William Jacobson told Fox News Digital. Jacobson, Clinical Professor of Law at Cornell Law School and founder of the Legal Insurrection website, founded CriticalRace.org’s sprawling database that has also examined elite K-12 private schools, 500 of America’s top undergraduate programs and military service academies. […] “Approaching the doctor-patient relationship through a Critical Race lens is being implemented under the umbrella of ‘Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion’ and other euphemisms, such as Ibram Kendi’s ‘anti-racism’ approach. ‘White privilege’ and similar concepts, pushed by Robin DeAngelo and others, are being infused into the medical school culture,” he said. […] “A patient-centric ethos is being drowned out by politics and activism,” Jacobson said, adding that CRT being pushed on medical students is particularly alarming even compared to other areas of higher learning.

THE DEMOCRAT PART MARXIST PLAYBOOK: CHILD MUTILATION, CHILD SACRIFICE, CHILD SEXUALIZATION
Duggan: Growing Body Of Evidence Shows ‘Social Influence’ Is Causing Teens To Undergo Sex Changes
Many activists argue that transgenderism has become more prevalent because growing social acceptance allows more transgender people, who would otherwise keep their gender identity a secret, to live openly. Critics of youth gender transitions, however, argue that the growing rate of transgender identification in adolescents, along with rapidly changing demographics of transgender people, are evidence that peer influence is driving young people to identify as transgender who otherwise wouldn’t. Gender dysphoria, a deep sense of discomfort with one’s biological sex which may drive a person to become transgender, used to be observed primarily in males, according to Reuters. That trend has been fully reversed over the past 15 years; among adolescents seeking transgender medical interventions, biological females outnumber biological males by a factor of 2.5 to 7.1. This drastic change in the transgender population was driven by peer influence, some medical professionals argue.

Wisconsin’s premier children’s hospital has had its fair share of scandal, particularly with regard to religious liberty and leadership, but the bar just keeps getting lower: Children’s Wisconsin is now hiring trans activists as chaplains and “spiritual care interns.” Children’s staff members were first notified of such new hires when fliers were posted around the inpatient units advertising, “Meet Your New Chaplain: Kate Newendorp.” The first tip-off to Newendorp’s beliefs about the sexes was featured prominently on the posters, with a proclamation of her pronouns as “she/her/hers” and those of her fiance, a female who goes by “they/he.” “Working in a pediatric hospital is a dream come true!!” Newendorp is quoted on the flier. “I am so excited to be working alongside everyone and am pumped to be part of the team. Think of me as your friendly next-door neighbor!”
A CHURCH IN CRISIS
Basham: When Christian Leaders Capitulate On Marriage, Innocent Children Suffer
Learning this month that 12 Senate Republicans had signed on with Democrats to advance the misnamed Respect for Marriage Act left many Christians stunned. Most shocking was the “yes” vote from Roy Blunt, a practicing Southern Baptist who served for three years as president of a small, private university in the theologically conservative denomination. How, many wondered, could a political leader with such deep roots in one of the most traditional branches of evangelicalism so publicly undermine the foremost human institution created by God? Those asking must not have been paying to the shift that has taken place in elite evangelical circles in recent years. One of the earliest signs that the commitment to defend biblical marriage was weakening came from Christianity Today CEO Timothy Dalrymple. In 2012, seven years before he took the helm of the publication founded by Billy Graham, he went on record arguing . . […] Note, Dalrymple was suggesting believers should capitulate on the issue of marriage three years before the Supreme Court discovered that gay partners have a constitutional right to have the government’s blessing on their affection (though, interestingly, only months after former President Barack Obama announced he had evolved on the question of whether the state should legalize gay marriage). […] What French never acknowledges and Dalrymple barely considers is what happens after weddings. But that is when the harm becomes most evident. “Three years of planning, saving, and praying have all led to this!” Dalrymple’s friend and his same-sex spouse proclaimed alongside a gauzy photo of them holding up that familiar black-and-white Rorschach strip. An ultrasound. “We can’t wait to be dads and are so thankful for the many amazing women, doctors, and friends — including our surrogate and her family, our agency team, donor … who have been there for us throughout this journey.” Based on the date the website announced — on or before April 2022 — the baby has already arrived, almost three years to the month that Dalrymple celebrated the union.
Haynes: Pope tells theologians to consult ‘non-Catholics,’ avoid ‘going backward’ in Tradition
Pope Francis has warned an influential, Vatican-based theological commission against “going backward” in “Tradition,” instead urging them to promote the Gospel by consulting non-Catholic “experts.” The 85-year-old Pontiff made the comments Thursday to the International Theological Commission, a body of theologians set up by Pope Paul VI in 1969 to advise the Congregation (now Dicastery) for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF). […] However, while Francis has used the texts of St. Paul on one occasion to make such an attack on “rigidity,” it was St. Paul himself who wrote: “Therefore, brethren, stand fast; and hold the traditions which you have learned, whether by word, or by our epistle.” (2 Thessalonians 2:14) Then, in his letter to Titus, St. Paul stipulated that bishops must faithfully adhere to the doctrine of the Church: “Embracing that faithful word which is according to doctrine, that he may be able to exhort in sound doctrine, and to convince the gainsayers.”Promote Catholic faith by seeking opinion of ‘non-Catholics’ Offering a second guideline to the members of the Commission to continue their studies, Francis advised them to promote the Catholic faith by seeking the advice of those outside the Church. […] Continuing, Donnelly summarized Francis’ increasingly heterodox activities with regard to Catholic doctrine. “Since 2013, he has appointed non-Catholic experts who, among other things, advocate eugenics, contraception, and abortion.”

Hufford: Employers Rethink Need for College Degrees in Tight Labor Market
The tight labor market is prompting more employers to eliminate one of the biggest requirements for many higher-paying jobs: the need for a college degree. Companies such as Alphabet Inc.’s Google, Delta Air Lines Inc. and International Business Machines Corp. have reduced educational requirements for certain positions and shifted hiring to focus more on skills and experience. Maryland this year cut college-degree requirements for many state jobs—leading to a surge in hiring—and incoming Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro campaigned on a similar initiative. U.S. job postings requiring at least a bachelor’s degree were 41% in November, down from 46% at the start of 2019 ahead of the Covid-19 pandemic, according to an analysis by the Burning Glass Institute, a think tank that studies the future of work. Degree requirements dropped even more early in the pandemic. They have grown since then but remain below prepandemic levels.

Berrien: New Treatment For Cancer: Flash Radiation That Only Takes Milliseconds
A new cancer treatment involving flash technology is being developed in Europe with the prospect of increased effectiveness and fewer side effects for cancer patients. The FLASH radiotherapy device is based on technology from the European Laboratory for Particle Physics (CERN); it reduces the period of radiation to a few milliseconds. The device is expected to be ready in two years; clinical trials are planned for 2025. In 2020, a pilot project at the Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois (CHUV) in Lausanne, Switzerland, utilized a prototype called FLASHKNiFE, which had been created by THERYQ (ALCEN Group). The new device will be stored in a special new bunker at CHUV.
