Henry Ford’s vaccine study backfired, and parents weren’t supposed to see it

By Jen Schumann | Rocky Mountain Voice Parents have long been told that the science on vaccines is settled. A study conducted inside Henry Ford Health in Detroit set out to reinforce that message. Its authors wrote that their goal was to “reassure parents of the overall safety of vaccination.”  The data didn’t land the way the authors expected.  Tracking over 18,000 children, the study showed higher chronic illness among the vaccinated than the unvaccinated. At the ten-year mark, 57 percent of vaccinated children had at least one chronic condition. For unvaccinated kids, it was 17 percent. Parents online are calling out what the unpublished Henry Ford data really shows. https://twitter.com/catsscareme2021/status/1965753836145909911 The numbers that couldn’t be...

New Bill Rolls Back Decades-Old Gun Law on Suppressors

By Brent Scher | The Daily Wire What looked like a small throw-in legislative win could pave the way for a seismic legal victory for Second Amendment advocates. Plenty of ink has been spilled on the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, the sweeping piece of budget reconciliation legislation that cuts taxes, creates “Trump accounts” for newborns, and grants an unprecedented new surge of funding in support of mass deportation and border security efforts. But one of the law’s biggest impacts may be its unfurling of a longstanding gun law that firearms enthusiasts and Second Amendment advocates have long had in their sights. The government has imposed a tax on suppressors, tools that are used to dampen the sound of a gunshot, ever since 1934, when the National Firearms Act was passed. Thank...

Epstein drama shadows Congress as funding fight heats up

By Rachel Schilke | Washington Examiner The House returns to Washington in September, and headlines indicate they will not be bored. In the month since congressional lawmakers left Capitol Hill to return to their home districts and states, both Democrats and Republicans have been plagued by contentious topics and social issues that threaten to cast a shadow over official business. After passing President Donald Trump‘s major tax and spending cuts bill, Republicans left town and hit the road to promote the “big, beautiful bill.” At times, centrist lawmakers have been hit with angry constituents as Democrats continue to message that the tax legislation benefits the wealthy at the expense of the middle class. But on their way out of Was...

President Trump vows voter ID mandate through executive order

By Anders Hagstrom | Fox News President announces plan on social media along with restrictions on mail-in voting President Donald Trump says he plans to sign an executive order aimed at requiring voter ID in elections across the country. Trump made the statement on social media late Saturday night, saying he is also seeking other reforms to how U.S. elections take place.   "Voter I.D. Must Be Part of Every Single Vote. NO EXCEPTIONS! I Will Be Doing An Executive Order To That End!!! Also, No Mail-In Voting, Except For Those That Are Very Ill, And The Far Away Military. USE PAPER BALLOTS ONLY!" Trump wrote on Truth Social. Trump previously attempted to impose voter ID via an executive order earlier this year in a wider election integrity action. In April, Ju...

OBBB Act empowers parents to shape their children’s future

By Bethany Mandel | Washington Examiner Hardly anyone is talking about it, but Congress has just passed one of the most consequential education reforms in history. Tucked into the One Big Beautiful Bill Act is a provision that could transform how families access education, reshape the politics of schooling, and finally give parents the power to direct their children’s learning. The legislation establishes a first-of-its-kind federal tax credit scholarship program, open to all types of educational settings. Beginning in 2027, people will be able to claim a dollar-for-dollar federal tax credit, up to $1,700 annually, for donations to educational nonprofit groups that fund K–12 scholarships for low- and middle-income students. The scholarships are designed ...

Meta’s AI rules let bots flirt with kids and push false health tips

By Jeff Horwitz | Reuters An internal Meta policy document, seen by Reuters, reveals the social-media giant’s rules for chatbots, which have permitted provocative behavior on topics including sex, race and celebrities. An internal Meta Platforms document detailing policies on chatbot behavior has permitted the company’s artificial intelligence creations to “engage a child in conversations that are romantic or sensual,” generate false medical information and help users argue that Black people are “dumber than white people.” These and other findings emerge from a Reuters review of the Meta document, which discusses the standards that guide its generative AI assistant, Meta AI, and chatbots available on Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram, the company’s social-media platf...

Whistle-blower Claims Schiff Sanctioned Classified Leaks Against Trump

By John Solomon and Jerry Dunleavy | Just the News A career intelligence officer who worked for Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee for more than a decade repeatedly warned the FBI beginning in 2017 that then-Rep. Adam Schiff had approved leaking classified information to smear then-President Donald Trump over the now-debunked Russiagate scandal, according to bombshell FBI memos that Director Kash Patel has turned over to Congress. The FBI 302 interview reports obtained by Just the News state the intelligence staffer — a Democrat by party affiliation who described himself as a friend to both Schiff, now a California senator, and former Republican House Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes — considered the classified leaking to be "unethical," "illegal," and...

Democrats call EPA rollback of $7B solar grants illegal, but the new law says cancel it

By Thérèse Boudreaux | Daily Signal THE CENTER SQUARE—The Environmental Protection Agency has announced it will claw back $7 billion in already earmarked funds from the Solar for All community grants and then eliminate the program, a move that Democrats claim is against the law. “This money was intended for our constituents and communities to help lower energy bills,” Energy and Commerce Committee Ranking Member Frank Pallone, D-N.J., stated Friday. “Clawing these funds back isn’t just brazenly illegal—it’s a betrayal by this administration of working families who will now pay higher energy bills just so Republicans can grind their axe against clean energy.” The repeal of the program, however, directly implements orders from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, whic...

Hearing lays groundwork for GOP-led reform after 3-year immigration surge, 500K visa overstays

By Shaina Cole | Contributing Writer, Rocky Mountain Voice The U.S. House Judiciary Committee held a hearing June 25 on visa security and legal immigration pathways, revisiting the Trump administration’s policies and examining how current enforcement gaps could be putting national security at risk. Republican lawmakers and expert witnesses repeatedly pointed to vulnerabilities in the visa system and criticized relaxed vetting protocols. “The purpose of today’s hearing is to determine to what extent our legal immigration system has been exploited, abused, and defrauded,” said Rep. Tom McClintock, R-Calif., “and to recommend measures to assure that legal immigration to the United States is legitimate, honest, fully vetted, and above board.” Jessica Vaughn of the Center for Immigrati...

President Trump’s ‘Big, Beautiful’ bill heads to his desk after marathon House-Senate push

By Leif Le Mahieu | Daily Wire "Today we are laying a key cornerstone of America's new golden age."  The House passed President Donald Trump’s “Big, Beautiful Bill” on Thursday, overcoming significant Democratic opposition and internal Republican hesitancy to hand the president a major legislative victory.  The Republican-controlled House voted 218-214 to pass the measure shortly after Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) wrapped up an hours-long speech delaying the bill’s advancement. Trump, who imposed a July 4 deadline for its passage, is expected to sign the bill at the White House sometime on Friday.   “With one big, beautiful bill, we are going to make this country stronger, safer, and more prosperous than ever before. And every American is going to benefit fr...
