viruses will take center stage in the United States in 2025 - but not until a very specific date: January 21, 2025. According to Hotez, H5N1, a coronavirus, SARS II, Zika, Oropouche virus, dengue fever, yellow fever, polio, pertussis, whooping cough, and measles will all ravish America, but these viruses will patiently wait to emerge until hours after President-elect Trump is inaugurated. The clairvoyant Hotez, author of <em class="">The Deadly Rise of Anti-science: A Scientist's Warning</em>, explained to MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace (a like-minded COVID nut-job) that many new diseases are at our doorstep due to "anti-vaccine activism."

The country's health ministry also warned people to wash their hands regularly with soap and water and not to touch dead bodies. A total of 376 people have been sickened in the outbreak, that has hit Kwango province in the southwest of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). In response, the ministry has sent a team of health workers to treat sick people and test samples in order to identify the potential disease behind the outbreak. The World Health Organization has also been alerted over the outbreak and has sent a team to the area to investigate the illness.</font></div><div class=""><font class="" size="3"><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font class="" size="3"><strong class=""><a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/usda-orders-testing-milk-bird-flu-rcna183212" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="">USDA orders testing of national milk supply for bird flu</a> --Here we go: another scamdemic is unleashed to cause to price of dairy and meat to skyrocket.</strong> | 6 Dec 2024 | The national milk supply must be tested for bird flu under a new federal order announced Friday by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

The diplomat cited data available on cooperation between Kiev and the terrorist group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), including on drones, following a claim Ukraine's intelligence services likely collaborated with the jihadists. The Kyiv Post has reported that Islamist groups involved in recent attacks in Aleppo province could have been prepared by the "Khimik" Special Forces unit of Ukraine's military intelligence service (HUR), which allegedly provided "operational training" to militants in Idlib province. "This is not the first region where the Kiev regime applies its criminal experience," Zakharova stated, as cited by newspaper Vedomosti, highlighting previous Ukrainian involvement in conflicts across Africa and now, reportedly, in Syria.</font></div><div class=""><font class="" size="3"><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font class="" size="3"><a href="https://www.rt.com/news/608688-tucker-carlson-zelensky-lavrov/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class=""><strong class="">U.S. embassy in Kiev blocking Zelensky interview - Tucker Carlson</strong></a>| 4 Dec 2024 | American journalist Tucker Carlson has said the U.S. government has been blocking his attempts to organize an interview with Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky for more than a year. On Wednesday, Carlson published a video on X in which he previewed the upcoming release of an interview with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov. The journalist said the conversation with Russia's top diplomat was aimed at providing a perspective on how close Washington and Moscow could be to a direct clash, after the regime of outgoing Joe Biden granted Ukraine permission to fire American-made long-range weapons deep into Russian territory. In the same clip, filmed on Manezhnaya Square in the heart of Moscow, the former Fox News host revealed that "we have also tried for over a year to get an interview with Zelensky, the president of Ukraine.”</font></div><div class=""><font class="" size="3"><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font class="" size="3"><a href="https://www.rt.com/news/608798-russia-lavrov-interview-carlson/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class=""><strong class="">Nuclear conflict risk, Ukraine and Syria escalation: Transcript of Lavrov's interview with Tucker Carlson</strong></a> | 5 Dec 2024 | Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has given an exclusive interview to conservative American journalist Tucker Carlson this week.

Here's the full text of the conversation. <strong class="">Carlson:</strong> Minister Lavrov, thank you for doing this. Do you believe the United States and Russia are at war with each other right now? <strong class="">Lavrov:</strong> I wouldn't say so. And in any case, this is not what we want. We would like to have normal relations with all our neighbors, of course, but generally with all countries, especially with a great country like the United States. And President Vladimir Putin has repeatedly expressed his respect for the American people, for American history, for American achievements in the world, and we don't see any reason why Russia and the United States cannot cooperate for the sake of the universe.</font></div><div class=""><font class="" size="3"><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font class="" size="3"><b class=""><a href="https://legitgov.org/index.php/2024/12/06/republican-u-s-senator-introduces-bill-to-ban-federal-use-of-west-bank/" class="">Republican U.S. senator introduces bill to ban federal use of 'West Bank'</a> --Legislation would mandate federal government refer to Palestinian territory as 'Judea and Samaria,' Israel's preferred name</b> | 5 Dec 2024 | A key Republican ally of President-elect Donald Trump introduced legislation Thursday in the Senate that, if enacted, would prohibit the federal government from using "West Bank" to refer to the Israeli-occupied Palestinian territory. Sen. Tom Cotton's legislation would mandate the federal government refer to the territory as "Judea and Samaria," Israel's preferred name. Cotton, who is the number three Republican in the Senate after reportedly being considered by Trump for CIA director or Pentagon chief, said the change "would require the use of historically accurate terminology."

Around 11 a.m., the jurors sent a note to the court stating, "We the jury request instructions from Judge [Maxwell] Wiley. At this time, we are unable to come to a unanimous vote on count 1 -- manslaughter in the second degree." The judge sent them back to deliberate more, but they told the court shortly after 3 p.m. that they still could not reach a unanimous decision.

But wait. There’s a twist or two. A contingent of supposed anti-leftist influencers, including James Lindsay, Konstantin Kisin, Ben Shapiro, et al. has suggested that there's also a "woke right." This woke right, we are told, is a mirror image of the woke left. The premise of Lindsay’s argument for a woke right is that any group that avowedly (or unconsciously) opposes an oppressor is woke by definition. How do they arrive at this notion? They take a faulty template and apply it universally.

The ruling now increases the possibility of an unprecedented ban in just six weeks on a social media app used by 170 million Americans. The ruling is expected to be appealed to the Supreme Court.</font></div><div class=""><font class="" size="3"><br class=""></font></div><div class=""><font class="" size="3"><strong class=""><a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14154833/donald-trump-surgeon-general-dr-janette-nesheiwat-maga-fury-covid.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener" class="">Trump Cabinet pick Dr. Janette Nesheiwat faces MAGA fury after COVID videos resurface</a> --Other videos showed Nesheiwat encouraging Americans to get their COVID-19 vaccination, repeating [the lie] that it was a "safe and effective" vaccine</strong>. | 4 Dec 2024 | Donald Trump's nominee for Surgeon General is facing backlash from some of his fiercest MAGA supporters for backing some strict COVID restrictions and masking mandates. Past videos of Fox News contributor Dr. Janette Nesheiwat's views on the COVID pandemic have recently resurfaced sparking outrage. Nesheiwat, a medical director for CityMD in New York, frequently spoke about the coronavirus pandemic and offered hardline advice about how citizens should behave... Another video making the rounds on social media featured Nesheiwat praising Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg for censoring and banning so-called "misinformation" about vaccines on Facebook and Instagram. "Vaccines save lives and I am so excited and I thank and commend Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg for taking action because this affects everyone," she said during a Fox Business panel on the issue.

The insurance company, which is one of the largest health insurance companies in the country, backtracked on the move following widespread outcry. Their decision came just a day after UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was shot dead in Manhattan on Wednesday morning.

With this new policy, Anthem will arbitrarily pre-determine the time allowed for anesthesia care during a surgery or procedure.
