AP Photo/Alex Brandon As we head into the heart of the holiday season, Joe Biden is getting ready to announce new COVID restrictions in an escalation of the hysteria stemming from the new Omicron variant (never mind the lack of evidence that Omicron is a more dangerous variant). You’ll be less than shocked to learn that those new restrictions make no sense whatsoever and are a complete slap in the face to science and data, which probably means Dr. Anthony Fauci came up with them.
Per Fox News’ Peter Doocy, Biden will speak on Thursday to make what’s coming official. ALERT: Fox’s Peter Doocy says on Thursday the White House plans to announce some of the strictest Covid restrictions on Americans yet. pic.twitter.com/IMTT4RB1TA — Election Wizard (@ElectionWiz) December 1, 2021 Here’s what the new restrictions being prepared actually entail, and this is just what we know about so far. As we’ve seen at times in the past, Biden’s announcements have a tendency to be worse than originally reported. This is what the Biden administration wants to demand from fully vaccinated and boosted travelers. Are you kidding me? https://t.co/9mbsBGa7De pic.twitter.com/RkeLdirAWf — Anthony LaMesa (@ajlamesa) December 1, 2021 Let’s put aside the argument over being vaccinated vs. unvaccinated and how that should play into restrictions for a moment. I’ve written extensively in the past on the fallacy of that distinction in managing community spread and why mandates of any kind are largely useless. Still, even focusing on these regulations in the context of just those “vaccinated and boosted” individuals, they are pure insanity.
Requiring people to quarantine for seven days even if they test negative is something you’d expect to see out of the Australian government. If someone tests negative, logically, they do not need to stay locked in a room for a week. Further, they would have tested negative prior to the flight as well, which means people would be quarantined after not one, but two negative tests. And for what, exactly?
That’s really the cardinal question here. Is the idea that such measures are going to put even the slightest dent in […]

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!
