Dr. Peter Hotez Is Consistently Wrong and Dangerous: Dr. Peter Hotez’s battle against the ‘anti-science confederacy’ is a lifetime in the making. Academics usually speak in nuanced shades of gray, but Hotez called, full-throated, for measures that would cut the COVID death rate. It’s time, he asserted, for scientists to take a stand. “Our messages too often are messages in bottles floating in an ocean of disinformation,” he wrote. “We need to address the ocean.”

CDC told Big Tech to censor COVID claims now debated by mainstream scientists, documents show: The newly revealed scope of collaboration between the feds and Big Tech in stamping out purported COVID-19 misinformation and promoting government narratives has opened a new chapter in constitutional challenges to state-influenced censorship by private actors. New FOIA docs give boost to legal challenges to federal involvement in social media content moderation.

Recession denial by White House and Federal Reserve will plunge America into stagflation: This inflationary period has been caused by excessive money printing at the hands of the Fed and substantial government spending throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, rather than any sort of natural phenomenon. So, because Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell does not personally believe the numbers right before his eyes, the U.S. central bank has continued down the path of dropping napalm on economic production. I am reminded of George Orwell’s 1984, “The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”

Hidden Menace: Massive methane leaks speed up climate change: Massive amounts of methane are venting into the atmosphere from oil and gas operations across the Permian, a 250-mile-wide bone-dry expanse along the Texas-New Mexico border that a billion years ago was the bottom of a shallow sea. Hundreds of those sites were seen spewing the gas over and over again. Ongoing leaks, gushers, going unfixed.

NATO’s arsonist-in-chief Jens Stoltenberg wants the Western public to pay for a Ukrainian fire he helped to ignite. EU members should ‘stop complaining’ and ‘pay the price’ for the Russia-Ukraine conflict, says leader of the bloc which started it all. The coup in question was made possible only with the involvement of radical Ukrainian right-wing nationalists whose lineage can be traced back to Nazi Germany and, post-World War Two, covert CIA backing which lasted from 1945 through the present.

Researchers urge doctors to test patients for forever chemicals: Routine testing is rare and most people don’t know how much PFAS is coursing through their circulatory system. There are more than 9,000 PFASs, of which about 600 are currently on the market, according to the US Environmental Protection Agency. The chemicals have been widely used for a long time in fire-fighting foam and to make wares like non-stick cookware, stain-proof mats, waterproof jackets and fast-food wraps that repel oil and grease.
