Physio-metabolic and clinical consequences of wearing face masks—Systematic review with meta-analysis and comprehensive evaluation
Conclusion: Face mask side-effects must be assessed (risk-benefit) against the available evidence of their effectiveness against viral transmissions. In the absence of strong empirical evidence of effectiveness, mask wearing should not be mandated let alone enforced by law.

Colorado woman's murder trial begins 3 years after remains of stepson found in Florida
Cook suggested Stauch developed dissociative identify disorder as a result of being physically, emotionally and sexually abused by her absent mother's string of partners during her childhood, sometimes sleeping in a car in the driveway to escape the abuse. When she killed Gannon, she was not, in her mind, killing her stepson, but the "demons" from her childhood and life, he said

2021 church burnings in Canada
Then there were the 2021 church burnings in Canada based on the unfounded claim that Catholic- and Protestant-run residential schools engaged in the widespread kidnapping, abuse, and murder of American-Indian children. In reality and in a nutshell, many Indians speak fondly of their days at the schools, and the institutions were created by the government (I elaborated here).
But notable was the wink-and-nod response from officials. For example, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and one of his advisors both issued tepid statements in which they called the arson “understandable.” Perhaps, being in politics, they were just somewhat less honest than British Columbia Civil Liberties Association head Harsha Walia, who bluntly stated, “Burn it all down.”

WOW: Dr. John Littell was KICKED OUT of a Sarasota Memorial Hospital Board Meeting after testifying to the effectiveness of Ivermectin to treat Covid-19.
Ivermectin
Many peer-reviewed studies have found that ivermectin, when used by itself or in conjunction with other therapies in symptomatic patients, reduces ventilation time, time for recovery, and the risk of progressing to severe disease. (pdf 1, pdf 2, pdf 3)

The world is rotten because of silence
https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=10159567080297914&set=a.83960257913
Be silent no more! Cry out with one hundred thousand tongues. I see that, because of this silence, the world is in ruins, the Spouse of Christ has grown pale; the color is taken from her face because her blood has been sucked out, that is the blood of Christ, which is given as a free gift and not by right.

Monkeypox
Based on the available information, it appears the project is reasonably anticipated to yield a lab-generated monkeypox virus that is 1,000 times more lethal in mice than the monkeypox virus currently circulating in humans and that transmits as efficiently as the monkeypox virus currently circulating in humans. The risk-benefit ratio indicates potentially serious risks without clear civilian practical applications.
As Supreme Court Justice Robert Jackson tellingly observed over 80 years ago
“It is not a question of discovering the commission of a crime and then looking for the man who has committed it; it is a question of picking the man and then searching the law books or putting investigators to work to pin some offense on him.”

As far as anyone knows, the case against Trump boils down to mischaracterizing a payment on a state tax form, having deducted a settlement payment as an expense for “legal fees” when it should have been marked down as a gift or something.
