Republican Kentucky lawmaker compares vax to Jonestown
“Kentucky’s House Education Committee chairwoman is under fire after appearing to compare efforts to encourage COVID-19 vaccinations to the Jonestown massacre. Rep. Regina Huff, R-Williamsburg, tweeted photos of cult leader Jim Jones and top White House medical adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci Tuesday morning. Jones’ photo includes a textbox saying, ‘I persuaded over 900 people to drink my Koolaid’ – a reference to the hundreds of people in Jones’ cult who drank poisoned Kool-aid and died in a mass murder-suicide in 1978.
Here’s the truth: If social networks and Fox News hadn’t disseminated misinformation and only legitimate vaccination concerns were raised, ~90% of eligible Americans would now be vaccinated.
“According to surveys and modelling by The Economist, the single greatest predictor of whether an American has been vaccinated is whether they voted for Joe Biden or Donald Trump last November.” America, 2021
This week vaccine mandates went from a possibility to a reality for thousands of workers in the US.
Maybe instead of coddling the unvaccinated and offering them rewards to get vaccinated, we should identify them and mail them a bill for their share of the cost of caring for people they have infected.
Racist COVID-denier in California tells the Orange County Supervisor to “go the f*** back to Vietnam” while people cheer.
In our history, we have segregated lepers and typhoid Mary spent the rest of her life in isolation. It is not unreasonable to expect people to either get vaccinated or stay home.
– breakthrough infections are still exceedingly rare
– even if you do get a breakthrough infection, being vaccinated is hugely protective as only 4 people were hospitalized and no deaths Bottom line: #VaccinesSaveLives
Disney and Walmart mandate employees to be vaccinated as COVID-19 cases spike nationwide.
Trump, Mark Meadows, Lindsey Graham, Jim Jordan, Ron Johnson and others all tried to illegally overturn the results of a democratically certified US Presidential election. They had ZERO evidence of fraud. They lied and tried to get others to lie to. They all belong in jail!

Sex Trafficking massage schools Diploma Mills In 2019, SHSF started investigating connections between sex trafficking + higher education.
What we learned was shocking: a set of state authorizers + experts believe this a widespread problem, esp. in state-authorized massage therapy programs.
The massage schools suspected of feeding workers to sex spas are hard to detect. It’s often something innocuous that catches an oversight group’s attention, such as exam test answers hidden in a boot or a fake diploma.
We found two dozen massage schools tied to prostitution or fraud. Here’s what to know.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past 48 hours, you’ve likely heard about the last-minute addition of a cryptocurrency tax to the U.S. Senate’s forthcoming infrastructure bill.
In this episode of the “Bitcoin Magazine Podcast,” host David Zell sat down with one of D.C.’s strongest Bitcoin supporters, Representative Warren Davidson (R-OH), to talk about the specific language and potential impact of this cryptocurrency tax legislation. As it stands now, the bill’s language is so broad that it could apply to a myriad of crypto-related activities that have no business being taxed. Worse still, the additional compliance costs that this bill could trigger would gravely jeopardize the viability of companies and startups in the Bitcoin space. Davidson blasted its stunningly poor verbiage, lamenting that it must have been written by people either totally ignorant about the industry or worse, by people looking to harm it. In his view, passing the bill in its current form would be a disaster both for the cryptocurrency industry and the American economy overall.
Davidson spoke about how this bill marks a departure from America’s longstanding role as a nation that spearheads innovation. Should it pass with its current language, he warned, America risks missing out on one of the most revolutionary technological strides in history and falling behind our adversaries in this vital innovation.
“America led in the Industrial Revolution, the advent of the automobile and the development of the internet,” said Davidson, “and now America is about to forfeit that leadership with this new technology.”
The congressman discussed how the bill might be altered for the better and how much time there is to fix it. At the end of our discussion, Davidson called on the Bitcoin community to jam up the phone lines of their elected officials and implore them to fight the cryptocurrency tax language in the bill. You won’t want to miss this.
