NYPD The New Gestapo? People Getting Arrested in NYC for Failing to Show Vaccine Cards


New York City is quickly becoming a totalitarian police state as officers have begun enforcing Mayor De Blasio’s draconian vaccine mandate, upsetting many citizens.

The mandate requires everyone over the age of 12 to show proof of vaccination against COVID-19 to utilize indoor spaces including restaurants, music venues, theaters, gyms, and other indoor public spaces. Children ages 5 to 11 are required to show proof of one vaccine dose. However, starting Wednesday the rule will require these children to be fully vaccinated to patronize indoor spaces.

Many New Yorkers have started peacefully protesting the mandate, but unlike the “peaceful” BLM protests and subsequent riots, NYPD is actually arresting violators for trespassing.

One avid protester, 41-year-old Mitchell Bosch, has three times this month during protests at a Cheesecake Factory, Applebee’s and on Monday he was one of five arrested at Burger King, the New York Post reports.

On December 14, about 40 protesters entered the Queens Center Mall Cheesecake Factory restaurant and refused to show proof of vaccination. Bosch was one of six people arrested in the incident. All six were charged with...

Disgraced Fauci-Funded Researcher Peter Daszak Reemerges to Insist ‘No Cover-Up’ From Chinese Communist Party.


Following his recusal from the Lancet’s COVID-19 commission, EcoHealth Alliance President Peter Daszak – a researcher whose “longtime collaboration” with the Wuhan Institute of Virology was funded by Anthony Fauci – reemerged in the mainstream media claiming the Chinese Communist Party never covered up data related to the virus.

Despite his removal from the medical journal’s commission focusing on COVID-19’s origins due to an extensive conflict of interest with the Chinese Communist Party-controlled Wuhan lab, first reported by The National Pulse, Daszak joined a BBC program, “COVID Origins: The Science.”

“Was information hidden,” the presenter asks Daszak.

Before asserting “there is no cover-up,” he explains:

Not from me. I mean, we…. Not from the public, actually. I mean, you hear this thing so often that you begin to sort of believe it.

The claim follows nearly 20,000 bat coronavirus samples getting erased from the Wuhan Institute of Virology in late 2019 and the lab continuing to do so throughout the pandemic. The National Pulse has also documented how the lab deleted mentions of its manipulation of bat coronaviruses to become more lethal, its partnership with the U.S. National Institutes of Health, names of military researchers working at the lab, and articles documenting its financial and personnel ties o the Chinese Communist Party from its website.

The lab has also erased reports of its researchers getting bitten by wild bats.

Daszak, who also served on the World Health Organization (WHO) COVID-19 origins investigation team, also revealed that the delegation never visited the farms believed to be the source of the animal carrying the virus crucial to the “wet market theory”:

We knew we weren’t going to go out and do testing of animals. You know, you’ve got a month in China, two weeks on the ground. You know, you’re in lockdown for two weeks. We knew we weren’t going to be able to travel to the wildlife farms and sample animals and get them tested.

The BBC program also describes the type of controversial research – “gain-of-function” – likely conducted by EcoHealth Alliance and the Wuhan Institute of Virology despite Fauci’s repeated insistence...

Joe Biden’s Top 25 Worst Moments of 2021


Joe Biden spent his first year as president making one embarrassing mistake after another on issues important to Americans and while representing the United States.

Here are the top 25 worst moments from 2021:

25. Joe Biden Rips Coast Guard Graduates During Commencement Speech

In May 2021, Biden ridiculed Coast Guard graduates after they did not react to a line in his commencement speech that he wanted to elicit applause.

“Why you’re a real dull class. I mean, c’mon man, is the sun getting to you? I would think you’d have an opportunity when I say that about the Navy to clap,” Biden said, appearing irritated.

24. Joe Biden Calls Australian PM ‘That Fella Down Under’

President Biden appeared to forget who he was talking to when he called Australia’s Prime Minister Scott Morrison “that fella down under.”

“Thank you Boris and I want to thank uh… that fella Down Under,” Biden said, as he spoke with UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson and Morrison during a video conference call.

23. Joe Biden Loses Mask at Outdoor Event

In April, Biden lost his mask at an outdoor campaign event with Democrat Sens. Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff, stumbling and interrupting the event as he searched for it.

“I’m looking for my mask. I’m in trouble,” Biden apologized to the crowd.

Throughout 2021, Biden struggled with masking protocols as he repeatedly lectured critics of mask mandates as being unpatriotic.

At times he appeared publicly with his mask, at other times he walked away from events without his mask and greeted the public.

During a video climate summit call with world leaders, Biden was the only one at one point wearing a mask on camera.


22. Joe Biden reverses reaction on Kyle Rittenhouse verdict

In November 2021, President Joe Biden reacted to the verdict in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial by standing by the jury’s decision.

“I stand by what the jury has to say,” Biden said shortly. “The jury system works and we have to abide by it.”

Just hours later, the White House released a statement from Biden that said he was “angry and concerned” by the verdict, suggesting the jury’s decision was the wrong one.


Kyle Rittenhouse looks back at the gallery in the courtroom as the room is let go for an afternoon break at the Kenosha County Courthouse in Kenosha, Wis., on Monday, Nov. 1, 2021. Rittenhouse, an aspiring police officer, shot two people to death and wounded a third during a night of anti-racism protests in Kenosha last year. 

21. Joe Biden says “I Agree” After Dad Says “Let’s Go, Brandon!”

In December 2021, Biden appeared unfamiliar with the “Let’s Go Brandon!” chant popularized among his critics to voice their dissent with his presidency.

During a NORAD Santa tracker call with his children, Jared Schmeck, 35, said the phrase to Biden, prompting the president to repeat the phrase and say “Let’s go Brandon. I agree.”

20. Biden Supports Major League Baseball’s Decision to Pull All-Star Game from Atlanta


In April 2021, Biden voiced support for Major League Baseball’s decision to pull the All-Star game from Atlanta in protest of Georgia’s election security laws.
“I think today’s professional athletes are acting incredibly responsibly. I would strongly support them doing that,” Biden said in an ESPN interview. “People look to them. They’re leaders.”

The boycott cost the state of Georgia and the city of Atlanta an estimated $100 million and hurt minority-owned businesses, making it so unpopular that even Stacey Abrams shifted her position on the boycott.

Constitutional Peril in Defense Secretary’s Straw Man on Extremism in Military


After almost a year of work, the secretary of defense on Dec. 20 released a report on findings regarding extremist activities in the U.S. military and actions to be taken to counter them.

After all that’s going on in the world, it must be heady stuff to warrant so much of the secretary’s time.

Spoiler alert: It doesn’t.

Despite the Chinese’s massed air formations near Taiwan or Russia’s 100,000 troops poised for war near the Ukraine border, there’s a bigger threat seemingly on the defense secretary’s mind; namely, extremism in the ranks.

The numbers, however, don’t support his concern, and it’s likely there’s another agenda in play.

First, the numbers. You’d be forgiven for thinking there’s a pandemic of extremism among our military members after watching our military leaders testify on the issue or listening to the mainstream media.

When all the smoke clears, an objective assessment doesn’t support that conclusion, and no report to date has delivered any data to indicate otherwise.

Indeed, the secretary’s own spokesperson reported that prohibited extremist activity amounted to “fewer than 100 incidents” over the past year. That’s in a force of more than 2 million men and women.

Moreover, responding to a request in 2018 from then-Rep. Keith Ellison, D-Minn., the Department of Defense reported only 27 incidents of extremist activity over the previous five years.

The Pentagon’s vigorous response to these underwhelming numbers includes actions to consider changes to the Uniform Code of Military Justice, better information sharing with law enforcement, screening of service members, and increased training and education.

Those seem reasonable, if applied with equal jurisprudence, but there’s reason for concern.

However, why did Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin on only his 12th day in office issue directives to hunt for extremists in the ranks? The only plausible explanation is political.

Only after the hunt for extremists had gotten underway did the secretary issue a directive to review the Pentagon’s China policies—inarguably a more pressing issue for national defense.

The galvanizing event for the concern over extremism was the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol, which involved a number of ex-military members. The riot was a national embarrassment, demonstrating inexcusable incompetence in planning and policing—for which no one in government has been held to account.

However, a substantial effort was launched to track down rioters and to lock them up in solitary confinement for months, including those without a prior record of violence.

The same cannot be said for the months of riots and violence perpetrated in...

Ex-Marine accused of being 'FBI plant sent to incite Jan 6 riot' is pictured on his ranch

  • Ray Epps, a Marine veteran, was seen in video urging a group of Trump supporters in Washington DC to 'go into the Capitol' on January 5 and 6
  • DailyMail.com located Epps, 60, who is at the center of a conspiracy theory alleging he was an FBI plant sent to help incite the deadly riot
  • Epps is the former president of the largest chapter of the far-right anti- government militia group the Oath Keepers
  • His alleged involvement in the deadly insurrection was highlighted in the DOJ's House Judiciary Committee oversight hearing in October
  • U.S Representative Thomas Massie (R-KY) showed video clips of Epps repeatedly encouraging protestors on the streets of DC to 'go into' the Capitol
  • Epps was seen addressing supporters on the street on January 5 saying: 'I'm probably going to go to jail for it, OK? Tomorrow, we need to go into the Capitol'
  • There is no evidence that Epps, a sergeant in the military, ever entered the building himself and he was never arrested in connection to the siege
Driving a golf cart around his small and immaculate desert ranch, Ray Epps appears a man in his element.

Cattle graze contentedly as he makes his rounds of the property he's transformed into a thriving wedding venue business, focusing on the location's rustic charm.

However, the tranquil scene just outside Phoenix, Arizona, could not be in starker contrast to one in which he is also associated – the storming of the Capitol Building on January 6.

Because not only is Epps, 60, a genial host of rural weddings, he's also the former president of the largest chapter of far-right anti-government militia group the Oath Keepers and was seen in video urging supporters to 'go into the Capitol' on the day of the deadly insurrection.

He was also spotted in footage at the first barrier to fall to rioters as it was breached at 12:50pm.

And he was named Suspect 16 when the FBI published images in its Capitol Violence Most Wanted list of people to identify two days after the insurrection, which claimed five lives.

However, a dramatic twist has now seen him accused of an altogether different, an unproven, allegiance - that of FBI plant.

Suspicion has fallen on him from some right-wing quarters speculating a fringe theory that he was sent out to help incite the riot on behalf of the federal government.

Some on the far right hypothesize that the motive was to frame Trump supporters as domestic terrorists.

There is no evidence that Epps, who was a sergeant in the military, ever entered the building himself on that fateful day and he was never arrested in connection with the storming.
