Has any woman had a baby since she or her husband had taken their vaccine jab?

How did it change their DNA? How did it affect the fetus? Were there any born with two heads? What kind of health problems were they born with?

Is there any info on this subject?

Would this be good info for those still hesitant about taking the vaccine?

Another message Democrats should be addressing:

Republicans are actually defending those that attacked our Capitol, by remaining silent about the "Justice For The J6" rally this Saturday. Some are outright praising it.

They are defending a criminal act.

Joe Biden's $3.5T dollar budget over ten years is less than half the present defense budget....

...over the same ten years.

It helps to have the right message and to put it into perspective. Otherwise, people think $3.5 trillion is the most money our government has ever spent.

($700B x 10 = $7T )

Republicans are aggressively attacking Blinken and Biden over the Afghan evacuation.

They are in campaign attack mode.

Democrats would do well to go on the offensive. Otherwise, they will be blamed for a debacle that would have happened if Trump had still been the president.

It wasn't Joe Biden that made a deal with the Taliban, with the exclusion of the Afghan government, that permitted them to take over the Afghan government. It was Donald Trump and Mike Pompeo. It was they who agreed that they would have all the US troops out by May 1st if the Taliban did not attack US troops. No US troops were lost to Taliban attacks from that moment until Trump was out of office.

Trump withdrew all US troops except for 2500, while the Taliban was able to take control of every province in that country. Furthermore, they had no intention of evacuating any Afghan citizens, not even those that helped America during the war. They were just going to leave. There was not enough American troops to resist when the Taliban made their march into Kabul. It took them 11 days to take complete control, as the troops surrendered their arms and uniforms and their President fled the country.

Yes, that happened under Joe Biden's watch but it was Donald Trump that laid out the strategy for that to happen. He and Pompeo surrendered to the Taliban in 2018 and Joe Biden was left with the remains of the day.

The Bid Lie has mutated into the Big Delusion.

It started small and grew and grew.

It started with "the only way the Democrats can win the election is if they rig it".

After the Democrats won, the election was called fraudulent. It was rigged, they said. But, the only election they believed was "rigged" was the Presidential election.

Now, that Big Lie has grown into "if the Democrats win any election, it is rigged". According to latest polls out of California, the Republicans are far behind in their recall election and they are refusing to accept the results out of California.

The Republicans have deluded themselves into believing that their Party is so popular that they cannot lose anywhere. "They" cheated Donald Trump out of the Presidency and now they are cheating Elder out of being Governor of California, Republicans now say. They have grown dangerously delusional.

Biden's new vax policy is a huge political gamble for Republicans.

If they continue to discourage people from getting the vaccines, in the name of "freedom" or whatever, and there is a huge surge in Covid this fall and winter, it will not look very good for their Party. Joe Biden could legitimately claim that he did everything he could do to try and get people to get the vaccine.

Hopefully, many more people will decide to get the "jab". If they do, and the Covid rates go down, Biden will get a lot of credit, deservedly so. It is almost a win-win for Joe Biden, politically speaking.

Republicans are walking a very thin line by criticizing Biden's effort to get more people vaccinated. If there is another surge, they will get most of the blame. If enough people get the vaccine, to bring down the terrible numbers, then Biden will get the credit.

Republicans must realize the minefield they are getting ready to walk through?

Do you think there will be any violence at September 18th rally?

Is Trump going to be there?

If not, I would not expect a similar-sized crowd as was at January 6th insurrection.

Also, they understand that if there is violence, it could reflect badly on those that are present defendants from the last rally. It is to their advantage to pretend to be "peaceful".

Is the Congress over-reacting by putting the security fence back up? Probably so. But it is a cautionary measure. (They can always say they were prepared and that is why the rally did not turn violent)

All in all, I would not expect a large crowd and I would not expect any violence.

But, it is best to be prepared.

Just my opinion.

"Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose".

Nothing ain't worth nothing, but it's free.

They have lost the ability to protect themselves from the deadly Covid, because it imposes on their freedom.

They have lost the ability to wear a mask, because their cult does not permit it. They say it "looks stupid".

They have lost the ability to protect their children at schools because their politics won't allow it.

They have lost the ability to think. They have nothing else to lose.

They have no freedom. It is only an illusion they have created to protect their false ideology.
