(AP Photo/Evan Vucci) After being mostly background after her 2016 endorsement and support of then-candidate Donald Trump’s presidential run, former Alaska governor and 2008 GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin appears to be coming back to the foreground.
On Thursday, Palin made an appearance on Fox News’ Gutfeld ! and let it be known that she is not vaccinated, and doesn’t plan to be. Palin contracted COVID-19 in March , and evidently recovered. She expressed on the show that she has followed the studies about natural immunity from COVID recovery being stronger than the COVID vaccines. Co-captain of the ’82 Alaska Girls Basketball State Champs – and still a straight shooter. Former Vice Presidential Nominee and Former Alaska Governor, @SarahPalinUSA joins #Gutfeld tonight! — Gutfeld! (@Gutfeldfox) September 17, 2021 The Hill picked up on it , knowing it would be click-worthy: “I believe in the science and I have not taken the shot,” Palin said. Palin, once a contender for becoming the first female vice president on John McCain’s 2008 presidential ticket, used a snippet from Anthony Fauci’s argument about being previously infected with COVID-19 and building immunity. “The Fauci-ism of the day, back then, was if you’ve had COVID — I’ve had COVID — well then mother nature was creating an immunity,” Palin said. “And even today they say you’re 27 percent more immune—” “Twenty-seven times ,” fellow guest Drew Pinsky, best known for treating celebrities on reality tv, chimed in, referencing a recent study from Israel which backed up Palin’s claims that previously infected people were significantly less likely than vaccinated people to contract the delta variant. “So I want to ask the questions,” Palin said. As per usual, the long knives came out. Some excoriated the Hill for bothering to give her any oxygen. why bother publishing this? what possible gain is there for anyone but sarah palin and your shareholders in publishing this? its not informative, its the opposite of productive, its pretty bare faced why you chose do it. anything for those ad dollars. — nullbadge (@NullBadge) September 18, 2021 Fine, but why did you […]

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
