Mommy here: Puppies Update!!!
If you’ve been following these posts…
Las Vegas K9 Crew Rescue (the rescue I volunteer with)… rescued 8 puppies.
These puppies were abandoned in a box on the side of the road far too young to be without their Mommy 💔🐾 They are believed to be Malinois/Shepherd mix puppies, and at the time only about 4-5 weeks old.
They all were fighting Coccidia - a serious intestinal parasite common in young puppies that requires medical treatment, medications, monitoring, etc.
6/18/26 Update: Okay - named The Celestial Liter 💫They are on their way!!! The first round of medication worked!!! 🎉 Fecal tests came back free of parasites!!!
They are now 9 weeks old and will be receiving their second round of vaccines Monday 😊
They have come so far 🥰
Another thank you to Bailey’s friends who have already donated, prayed, and shared!!!
If anyone would like to help, every donation truly matters. Even sharing this post means so much.
Thank you (again) for caring about them!!! 😊
Mommy

For puppy overload I’m posting pictures I got of Aurora (female), Cosmo (male) & Galaxy (female)… and the little cutie pie under the furniture is another picture of Galaxy.
I just got off the phone with someone who works in defense policy in Washington. What they told me should end every "Trump is reckless" argument permanently.
"Every single president since Clinton received the same intelligence briefing on Iran's nuclear timeline. Every single one was told the window was closing. Every single one chose to kick it down the road because the political cost of acting was higher than the political cost of waiting."
Trump got the same briefing. 60kg of 90% enriched uranium. 4 weeks to breakout. Material for 2 bombs.
He chose to act knowing it would tank his approval to 35%.
He chose to act knowing his own base would split.
He chose to act knowing NATO allies would refuse to help.
He chose to act knowing gas prices would spike.
A senior analyst I know at a major think tank put it this way: "The difference between Trump and every president before him isn't intelligence. They all had the same data. The difference is courage."
Read that again.
Every president had the same file on their desk. Only one opened it and did something.
I'll keep you updated. Turn on notifications. 🚨
Robert Mueller had a lead role in the most destructive lies of the 21st Century (so far): WMDs and Trump-Russia election collusion.
He is responsible for destroying countless lives while deceiving/dividing the American people without consequence.
One of the most malignant figures in U.S. history.
These numbers really hit me.
30% of the UK rejected this vaccine. This is the same number as in America, and the same number worldwide. Under the heaviest propaganda campaign in human history - under job threats, social pressure, guilt, and isolation - 30% of the world said no and held the line.
We think of 30% as a small number. It isn't. There is zero apathy in that 30%. Every single one of those people made a hard, conscious, costly decision, and they made it completely alone, with no idea their neighbor was doing the exact same thing.
That was the only thing that beat us. We weren't talking to each other.
The employees who stood together as the 30% and said "we walk out if you force this" kept their jobs. Every one of them.
Now think about the 70% who got it. How many of them actually believed in it? How many just broke under the pressure? At least half, I'd bet. Which means 50% of this world never wanted that vaccine.
They didn't win because they were right. They won because they made us feel alone.
You were never alone. You just didn't know it.
Start talking. You are the change.
Wait… so the same people who think our “democracy” is under attack because Don Lemon was arrested are the same people who literally changed the laws specifically so they could arrest the front runner of the opposite party in the Presidential election in order to convict him on felony counts?
Yeah… not buying it.
When the opponent feels bigger than you—on the court or in life—let the Judah 2 “Fearless” be your reminder.

Run for the Border
by Charlie LeDuff @Charlieleduff
The food at Leo’s Coney Island in Ypsilanti is so tasty that a man might find himself wandering 2,500 miles through thicket and dust to quench his hankering for the famed tuna on rye, pickle on the side.
And so it seems with Issam Bazzi, who used to work at Leo’s until he was swept up by ICE last July and deported back to Venezuela.
Bazzi, 53, is a Hezbollah-linked financier who crossed the southern border in 2021. While detained in Texas, Bazzi’s name came back as a positive hit on the FBI Terror Watch List. Biden let him move to Dearborn, anyway, the first known instance of a terror watch list resident knowingly being let into the U.S.
Bazzi was given a social security number, a driver’s license, and permission to work at Leo’s. Then Trump got elected and Bazzi got a one-way ticket back to Caracas.
Now DHS sources tell me Bazzi in on their radar again. He was pinged last week as being in Chiapas, Mexico. Bazzi might be making his way back to Michigan, said a U.S. security official.
“Somebody should tell the guy that even if he makes it past mosquitoes and the cartels, he is not getting back in,” the official said.
Somebody should save Señor Bazzi the trouble of the journey and tell him about DoorDash.
Tomorrow, “proud socialist" Zohran Mamdani becomes mayor of my town.
Asked if he likes capitalism, he answered, "No... I have many critiques of capitalism."
Well, I have many critiques of him:
Crossing the border illegally is a federal criminal offense.
A first-time illegal crossing is a misdemeanor via 8 USC 1325. An illegal entry after deportation is a federal felony via 8 USC 1326.
Overstaying a visa is a civil offense.
All of the above makes one deportable.
Some good news coming your way this morning... Days are now getting longer, and we will gain between 40-60 minutes of daylight in the upcoming month of January!

An Inconvenient Study
Last month, all hell broke loose on this normally tranquil slice of the Internet, when I shared a podcast episode with Gavin de Becker. Gavin is a famous criminologist who published a book called Forbidden Facts, which argued that many of the 72 childhood vaccines on the current schedule were either not necessary, or not worth the risk of taking. The book also claims the government knows all of this and has deliberately suppressed the truth.
Along with the typical accusations of “anti-vaxer!” and “conspiracy nut,” most of the comments critical of Gavin, (and me) were posted by people who had neither read Gavin’s book, nor listened to our conversation. So certain were the defenders of “safe and effective,” they couldn’t even take a quick look at what was actually being suggested before proclaiming “the science has been settled!!!” Well, I suspect the same thing will happen again today. Because today, at the request of many listeners, my guest is @delbigtree, CEO of Informed Consent Action Network. His recent film, An Inconvenient Study, is ruffling a lot of feathers.
The study in question was conducted by Dr. Marcus Zervos, the head of infectious diseases at The Henry Ford Medical Center. In short, this was the first major study to compare the overall health of thousands of people who received all of the recommended vaccines, with the overall health of those who did not. Most importantly, Dr. Zervos, a longtime proponent of vaccines (including all those on the current schedule) assured Del Bigtree that he would publish the results no matter what those results indicated. However, when the study was finally completed, Dr. Zervos changed his mind. Why? Because the results clearly contradicted the claims that the vaccines in question were safe and effective. And Dr. Zervos was afraid that releasing the results would cost him his job, and his reputation.
Obviously, Del Bigtree was very disappointed. Here at last was a very robust study conducted by a respected vaccine advocate at a renowned medical institution that cast serious doubt on the efficacy of certain vaccines. And so, Del went to meet with Dr. Zervos in person and pled with him to keep his word and publish the results. But, because he was not optimistic the Dr. Zavros would agree to do so, Del Bigtree surreptitiously filmed and recorded their entire conversation, over lunch. Consequently, Del Bigtree now has Dr. Zervos, (spoiler alert!) admitting - on camera - that even though he believed the results of his study were valid, he was unwilling to publish the results for fear of losing his job and his reputation in the medical community.
Obviously, my conversation with Del includes a discussion on the ethics of recording someone without their knowledge. We also discuss the methodology of the study itself, which has been criticized by a number of experts. Those criticisms are clearly stated and rebutted on the website where you can watch the film for free, linked below. But even if some experts question certain aspects of the underlying methodology, the results are impossible to ignore. If nothing else, they suggest an urgent need to conduct further studies with even larger groups and even better controls. The stakes are simply too high to shout down the skeptics with the usual “that’s all been debunked” routine, and the skeptics are now far too numerous to be dismissed as “anti-vaxxers.”
To that point, consider that just a few days ago, The Atlantic – arguably the strongest supporter of all recommended vaccines, (including and especially the Covid shots,) and the most consistent critic of anyone who suggested otherwise, finally admitted in a stunning headline that some children “may have died” because of them. https://t.co/yBza4gi2n7
There is no apology in the article, and zero empathy for the parents of the dead children. The author makes more of a “collateral damage” argument and concludes that the decision to deliberately conceal the attendant risk of injecting children with an unproven vaccine was a “strategic blunder” in the fight against “anti-vaxxers,” as opposed to a moral failing.
Nevertheless, it’s a remarkable reversal for a publication like The Atlantic, and no doubt gratifying to Gavin de Becker, Del Bigtree, and everyone else who has ever been shouted down for daring to wonder if we were being told the whole truth. Clearly, we weren’t.
An Inconvenient Study can be seen for free, here. https://t.co/avww8T3C2B
Likewise, my conversation with Del is also free, and can be listened to at your convenience.

Both are worth your time.

PS. In response to the criticism sure to follow this conversation, I want to say, again, that my ultimate goal in talking to skeptics like Gavin de Becker and Del Bigtree is not to foster distrust in our institutions; it’s to push our institutions to admit when they’re wrong, and then, be accountable for those mistakes. Like most of you, I want to trust the experts. I want to believe our elected officials, our journalists, and most of all, our scientists. I want to believe they will always follow the facts, no matter where they lead. Unfortunately, experts are human beings, just like the rest of us. Some are more virtuous than others, but none are anxious to destroy their livelihoods and their reputations. Personally, I think it’s really important for the public to understand the pressure on experts like Marcus Zavros, and where that pressure comes from. That’s why books like Gavin’s and films like Del’s are important. Even if they are inconvenient...

Despite the risk of backfire, Republicans still had to take on the redistricting war.
They had no chance to keep their majority otherwise, but the real story media NEVER tell, is the reason why.
It's not just the national mood.
The 2020 census was badly flawed in myriad ways favoring Democrats. Then, on top of that, activist judges interfered when they had no authority to do so.
Perhaps no better example is North Carolina. ECN was grossly undercounted. Despite that, the Republican legislature and Democratic governor AGREED on a map tied to budget negotiations and Democrats pulled a back door renege getting their fanatics on the state court to strike it down.
Voters threw them out, replaced them with conservatives and elected a GOP supermajority in the legislature.
But that didn't fix the flawed counting.
So, sure.
Republicans are doing this as a raw power move at the behest of the White House. But that doesn't mean they're also not righting egregious wrongs. Two things can be, and in this case are, true.
Angry about affordability? Why are prices so high?
Blame Joe Biden.
