New York state is about to find out using its prison population as a test group.
The New York Post reported July 1 that, in a memo the day before, Anthony Annucci, New York’s acting Corrections and Community Supervision commissioner, expressed concern over the number of felons vaccinated in the Empire State and said he would implement an “incentive program” to boost those numbers.
Only 45 percent of the state’s incarcerated felons have been vaccinated, the Post reported, compared with over 70 percent of New York’s general population. Given that prisoners are among those at-risk for getting COVID, this is worrying.
So is the solution, though: inducements by way of barbecue parties, conjugal visits and other enticements.
In the memo, Annucci wrote that “many other state prison populations have much higher vaccination rates.”
“To encourage you to do your part in this fight, the Department will implement an incentive program.”

The “program,” such as it is, proves COVID has destroyed any line that might have existed between political satire and reality.
For instance, if you’re a fully vaccinated, incarcerated felon in one of New York’s 50 state prisons, you’ll be entered in a drawing in which you’ll get a care package consisting of “the most popular food items sold at our assigned facility’s commissary, not to exceed a $75 value.”All that’s missing is Drew Carey : “New York prisoner number 02674343J, come on down! You’re the next contestant on ‘The Pfizer’s Right!’” (Thank you; I’ll be here all weekend.)“In addition, at the conclusion of this vaccination campaign, Central Office will award a facility barbecue to all vaccinated individuals at six facilities … for the highest percentage of individuals vaccinated,” Annucci wrote, according to the Post.Two small-population, two medium-population, and two large-population facilities will get the cookouts.And if food and parties aren’t enough, how about sex ?“In addition to keeping yourself, your family, and your friends safe, […]

Will America-First News Outlets Make it to 2023?
Things are looking grim for conservative and populist news sites.
There’s something happening behind the scenes at several popular conservative news outlets. 2021 was bad, but 2022 is proving to be disastrous for news sites that aren’t “playing ball” with the corporate media narrative. It’s being said that advertisers are cracking down, forcing some of the biggest ad networks like Google and Yahoo to pull their inventory from conservative outlets. This has had two major effects. First, it has cooled most conservative outlets from discussing “taboo” topics like Pandemic Panic Theater, voter fraud, or The Great Reset. Second, it has isolated those ad networks that aren’t playing ball.
Certain topics are anathema for most ad networks. Speaking out against vaccines or vaccine mandates is a certain path to being demonetized. Highlighting voter fraud in the 2020 and future elections is another instant advertising death penalty. Throw in truthful stories about climate change hysteria, Critical Race Theory, and the border crisis and it’s easy to understand how difficult it is for America-First news outlets to spread the facts, share conservative opinions, and still pay the bills.
Without naming names, I have been told of several news outlets who have been forced to either consolidate with larger organizations or who have backed down on covering certain topics out of fear of being “canceled” by the ad networks. I get it. This is a business for many of us and it’s not very profitable. Those of us who do this for a living are often barely squeaking by, so loss of additional revenue can often mean being forced to make cuts. That means not being able to cover the topics properly. Its a Catch-22: Tell the truth and lose the money necessary to keep telling the truth, or avoid the truth and make enough money to survive. Those who have chosen survival simply aren’t able to spread the truth properly.
We will never avoid the truth. The Lord will provide if it is His will. Our job is simply to share the facts, spread the Gospel, and educate as many Americans as possible while exposing the forces of evil.
To those who have the means, we ask that you please donate. We have options available now, but there is no telling when those options will cancel us. We have our GivingFuel page. There have been many who have been canceled by PayPal, but for now it’s still an option. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
