Newport News shipbuilder Huntington Ingalls reverses their position on the vaccine mandate and claims they misinterpreted the federal requirement. After further consultations with the federal government, the shipbuilder now says the vaccine mandate doesn’t apply. “This recent information is different from what we understood to be the government’s and the Navy’s intent,” the company said.
Huntington Ingalls previously said all of its 25,000 workers would need to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 as a “condition of continued employment” due to the vaccine mandate for federal workers and contractors. [Media Link] However, Newport News Shipbuilding President Jennifer Boykin said in a Facebook update Thursday that Huntington Ingalls clarified their Navy contracts “don’t include a vaccine mandate at this time.”
[Via Facebook] President and CEO Mike Petters issued a message to employees Nov. 16 indicating that the government’s Jan. 4, 2022, deadline for vaccination is suspended. The message also clarified that after considerable work with the Navy to meet the intent of the mandate, our Navy contracts with Newport News Shipbuilding do not include a vaccine mandate requirement at this time.This recent information is different from what we understood to be the government’s and the Navy’s intent. As a result of what we know today, some of the related mandate policies and processes will now change. Because employee safety continues to be our top priority, other COVID-related policies will not change.Here’s what is changing:• COVID-19 vaccination is not required as a condition of employment for current or leased employees.• Employees who applied for a religious or medical exemption will be contacted in writing with additional clarification.• Shipbuilders who opted to submit for retirement or to resign as a result of the federal mandate have the option to request reversal of their decision.– For those who have started the retirement process, please contact the HII Benefits Center for more information.– For employees who notified management or Human Resources of plans to resign, please talk with your immediate supervisor if your plans change. Supervisors should contact their Human Resources business partner for guidance.• Offsite employees will be required to follow the guidance provided by the work location.• Subcontractors do not need to be fully vaccinated.

As more data revels less benefit to vaccination status; and additional data reveals vaccinated individuals are becoming the group with the most adverse health outcomes; the scientific and medical community -writ large- are facing increased scrutiny to justify the public benefit of a seemingly endless booster approach with little upside.
In essence, what good are all these vaccinations; and specifically all the rules of proving your vaccinated status vis-a-vis passports; if the vaccinated can still be infected and spread the virus? The voices asking this question are growing more loud by the day. Then, all of a sudden….
Isn’t that convenient? A new variant that tamps down the issue of questioning science about why the vaccine doesn’t seem to work. It appears the COVID science always has a way to explain why the COVID science may not work.
SKY NEWS – Scientists have raised concerns about a new variant of coronavirus that has an “extremely high number” of mutations that vaccines may not protect the human body against.
The B.1.1.529 variant was first detected in Botswana, Africa in November with subsequent infections confirmed through genome sequencing in South Africa and in a traveller from Hong Kong after returning from the Rainbow Nation.
Only ten cases have been reported across the world but health experts believe it could have spread further than three countries as nations ease COVID-19 restrictions and restart international travel.
The latest variant has 32 spike mutations in the spike protein, the part of the virus that most vaccines use to boost the immune systems against the highly infectious disease.
Mutations in spike protein can affect the virus’ ability to infect cells within the body and spread but also makes it difficult for immune cells to attack the pathogen. The worrying number of mutations mean it could evade immunity. (read more)
Not to worry, I’m confident a few more scientific lockdowns, distance rules, masks, travel restrictions, compliance checks and booster shots will be able to overcome it. After all, it would be terrible if those COVID quarantine camps were built and then not used.

We have recent familiarity with FBI connections as they pertain to high profile criminal cases; specifically cases with a framework of domestic terrorism {Go Deep}. Against that backdrop, the Daily Mail is now reporting that Darrell Brooks was arrested and convicted in 2007 for a bomb plot against a Nevada casino.
Via Daily Mail – The man accused of murdering five after mowing them down in his car during a Wisconsin holiday parade was previously convicted for threatening to bomb a casino, DailyMail.com can reveal. Darrell Brooks, 39, was busted in March 2007 for calling in a bomb threat to the $43-per-night Nugget Casino Resort in Sparks, Nevada. (read more)
We already know Brooks had a lengthy 20-page rap sheet of previous criminal conduct. However, the question being raised is: would the FBI have Darrell Brooks on their radar after the events in Nevada?
Unfortunately, it would not be a surprise to discover Brooks was a lone wolf and also a “known wolf”. There is a pattern of the FBI having contact -of varying degrees- with domestic terrorism events and the suspects who carry out such attacks. The fact that Brooks was released from prison just prior to the Wisconsin Christmas parade attack is enough to make the cynical senses tingle.
The FBI was fully aware of the Boston Marathon bombers, the Tsarnaev brothers, before they executed their plot. The FBI took no action. The FBI knew about the San Bernardino terrorists, specifically Tasfeen Malik, and were monitoring her phone calls and communications before her and Syed Farook executed their attack killing 14 people and leaving 22 others seriously injured. The FBI took no action. The FBI knew Colorado grocery store shooter Ahmad Alissa before he executed his attack. The FBI took no action.
The FBI knew in advance of the Pulse Nightclub shooter (Omar Mateen) and was tipped off by the local sheriff. The FBI knew in advance of the San Bernardino Terrorists (Tashfeen Malik). The FBI knew in advance of the Boston Marathon Bombers (the Tsarnaev brothers) tipped off by Russians. The FBI knew in advance of the Parkland High School shooter (Nikolas Cruz). The FBI knew in advance of the Fort Hood shooter (Nidal Hasan), and the FBI knew in advance of Colorado grocery store shooter Ahmad al-Aliwi Alissa. The FBI took no action.
Consider the case of the first recorded ISIS attack on U.S. soil in Garland, Texas in 2015. The FBI not only knew the shooters (Elton Simpson and Nadir Soofi) in advance, the FBI took the shooters to the venue and were standing only a few yards away when Simpson and Soofi opened fire. Yes, you read that correctly – the FBI took the terrorists to the event and then watched it unfold. “An FBI trainer suggested in an interview with “60 Minutes” that, had the attack been bigger, the agency’s numerous ties to the shooter would have led to a congressional investigation.”
Remember, shortly before the 2018 mid-term election, when Ceasar Syoc – a man living in his van – was caught sending “energetic material that can become combustible when subjected to heat or friction”, or what FBI Director Christopher Wray called “not hoax devices“? Remember how sketchy everything about that was, including the childlike perpetrator telling a judge later than he was trying to walk back his guilty plea because he was tricked into signing a confession for a crime he did not create.
Or more recently, the goofball plot to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer that involved 18 suspects, twelve of them actually working for the FBI as the plot was hatched? And we cannot forget the January 6th DC protest turned insurrection effort, which is clearly looking like an FBI inspired and coordinated effort. Have we forgotten the Atlanta “Olympic Park Bombing”, and the FBI intentionally setting up transparently innocent, Richard Jewel?
Then, there’s the entirety of the FBI conduct in “Spygate”, the effort against Donald Trump using FBI resources; the coverup operation using the Mueller/Weissmann special counsel using 50 investigative FBI agents; the 13 FBI agents assigned to evaluate a NASCAR racetrack garage door pull-down rope; the FBI involvement with the Hunter Biden laptop that went nowhere; the disappearing Huma Abedin/Anthony Weiner laptop –in the known custody of the FBI; and the missing investigation of the Awan brothers.
So yeah, when it comes to a lone wolf driving purposefully and with malicious intent into a Christmas parade, suspicious cat remains, well, suspicious…

[NEW YORK – Nov. 23, 2021] Project Veritas released a new video today refuting The New York Times’ legally flawed claim that the New York State Supreme Court acted in an “unconstitutional” way when it ruled that The Times must temporarily stop publishing Veritas’ attorney-client privileged communications with the attorneys representing Veritas in the defamation case, and further ordered The Times to explain the reasoning behind why they did so in an article earlier this month.
Veritas is currently suing The Times for defamation after they libelously labeled a September 2020 video exposing ballot harvesting in Minnesota as “deceptive.” The lawsuit was filed over a year ago. (read more)

CTH doesn’t do direct refutation unless the issues are very important. Earlier today, immediately following the jury conviction of three men in the death of Ahmaud Arbery, a longtime Fox News legal analyst named Johnathan Turley made a claim of fact that must be refuted. My apologies for the delay here.
I do not have video citation, but watched in real time as it happened. Attorney and Law School Professor Johnathan Turley appeared on Fox News to discuss the jury verdict in the Arbery case.
During his appearance, Professor Turley stated the difference between Ahmaud Arbery’s death and the death of Trayvon Martin was video evidence.
Turley compared the Arbery case to the Trayvon case by saying there were no eyewitnesses for either events, but the difference in the Arbery case there was video.
The explicit and intended implication was that if video evidence existed in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin, there’s a possibility George Zimmerman would have been convicted, or in the words of Turley, “there would have been a different outcome in that case.” Everything about this claim by Turley is FALSE.
Turley’s viewpoint for the Arbery case discussion is not only wrong, it dangerously presents a possibility that is entirely fictitious.
THERE WAS a direct eye witness in the fight between George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin. Direct eye witness Jonathan Good testified during the Zimmerman trial to witnessing the fight from his window in the condo unit next to the confrontation [LINK]. John Good testified in court to seeing Trayvon on top of Zimmerman and raining down blows MMA style, “ground and pound“, while Zimmerman was “shouting for help“, just before the fatal shot was fired.
John Good (pictured below right) originally gave the same statement to the police on the night of the incident, and all of the forensic evidence supported the description of the events as told during Good’s statement and court appearance. Mr. Good’s first hand eyewitness account, and all of the subsequent physical evidence in the case – which included recordings of 911 phone calls which documented the sound of the fight, was the primary reason why detectives in the case and the local district attorney in Orlando did not file charges against George Zimmerman after the shooting.
All of the evidence in the case supported traditional self defense. Ignored by most, and falsely reported by national media, George Zimmerman did not use a “stand your ground” defense, because traditional self-defense was evident in the facts of the case. The “duty to retreat” was never debated in court or even by prosecutors, because Zimmerman had no opportunity to retreat from a physical confrontation he did not initiate.
The media’s false reporting in the Zimmerman case was jaw-dropping, and all these years later – thanks to the fabrications by people like Johnathan Turley – most of the public still have no idea what factually took place in the encounter between Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman.
Perhaps Turley does not know about the police statements and direct courtroom testimony by eyewitness John Good, because what he said did not match the false media narrative that was built in the aftermath. The media ignored the evidence, and their complicit alignment with a prosecution narrative actually provided room for state special prosecutors Angela Corey and Bernie De La Rionda to carry out another egregious miscarriage of justice. They completely fabricated a pro-prosecution witness named Rachel Jeantel {Go Deep}.
John Good was an inconvenient witness that destroyed the media narrative about the confrontation between Trayvon and Zimmerman; so the media ignored it. Additionally, the officials in/around Sanford and Orlando Florida kept the spotlight away from John Good because there was a genuine worry that he would be targeted by the mob that was stirred up by the false racist narrative.
Essentially John Good was in hiding until he could give his first-hand eyewitness account in court. Those facts are likely why Professor Johnathan Turley doesn’t know about the eyewitness; however, in the larger picture, what does that reality say about the media?
CTH came to the defense of George Zimmerman, because we were defending the truth. Not the manipulated truth, and not any version of any individual truth; but the literal and empirical truth that undermined the myriad of lies around the Zimmerman case. The lies were so thick in the case against Zimmerman, the state prosecution even believed it would be possible to successfully create witness #8 out of nothing and get away with it.
Witness #8, Rachel Jeantel, appeared at the trial and gave testimony; unfortunately for the prosecution, she could not answer most questions because she never saw, heard, or had anything to do with the events. Jeantel was handed to the prosecution by the lawyers and family of Trayvon Martin. Jeantel signed a statement for the prosecution that she did not write and couldn’t even read.
Jeantel was needed because lawyers for Trayvon Martin’s family claimed publicly a girl was on the phone with Trayvon when the encounter with Zimmerman took place. Everything about that claim was a lie. However, worse still, the state prosecution was willing to go along with the lie because the falsehood became the central point of their case.
As a consequence, Rachel Jeantel was a completely made up witness by the Florida state prosecution in the highest profile legal case in the past decade…. and no one was ever held accountable for that.
Let that TRUTH sink in a while…
I hope everyone can see how dangerous this stuff is…
Chuck Schumer is up for re-election in 2022. When the confirmation of Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court took place, New York Progressives who are out to change America into the next Marxist-Wonderland, warned Schumer to “step up to the plate” and publicly support stuffing the Supreme Court with progressives who would rule against the Constitution in the manner that they want. They threatened Schumer that if he did not comply with their demands, then he will face a tough fight to keep his Senate seat when he is up for re-election in 2022.
The threat came in a very strongly-worded letter to Schumer signed by a coalition of 22 progressive New York City and state officials. The letter demanded that Schumer counter a number of “right-wing ideologues” on the country’s Supreme Court, which is described as not being an impartial arbiter of whether policies enacted by branches of government were in keeping with the US Constitution and US. laws. Biden’s pick for the top bank regulator is an outright Communist and against banking. Saule Omarova, a law professor at Cornell Law School, is probably the most anti-capitalist person who was educated in Russia and nostalgic for communism. Indeed, in her Senate hearing, some asked if they should call her comrade or professor. Either way, she has no experience in the real world of banking. She is just another academic with theories to experiment on society.
Schumer is up for re-election in 2022 and the Democratic Party is being torn apart. This Build Back Better spending bill is the single largest spending bill as a percentage of the national debt in the entire history of the nation. It has nothing to do with stimulating the economy. About one-third is all about the environment; shutting down fossils fuels is the main goal decades before there is any replacement. Forget just heating people’s homes, they are out to end commuting to work, eliminating office buildings, and shut down fossil fuels now even before a theory of alternative energy could ever replace everything in 20 years. The real objective seems to be reducing the population, for that is the ONLY way to ever achieve their unrealistic goals.
Looking at Schumer’s career, 2022 is the peak. Even if he is re-elected, there will be a decline between 2022 and 2026. So either the Democrats lose the Senate in 2022, or Schumer loses the election. Either way, his political career is peaking out in 2022. The vast majority of Americans are NOT progressives willing to surrender everything and overturn the Constitution.
Already 70% of Americans feel that the Democrats are taking the country in the wrong direction. Biden will never run in 2024, and the progressives do not care about the polls of the Democrats. They are forcing their agenda through come hell or high water, as they say. They just got the Democrats to pass the Build Back Better bill in the House. This is the takeover of the United States and the imposition of raw tyranny to create this new world of the Great Reset.
While the world is trying to imprison people who are not vaccinated, here Biontech owners and staff will not be vaccinated themselves for “safety reasons.” While 5 million dead worldwide out of 7.8 billion, this is by no means a disease that has warranted destroying the world economy. This is for climate change and the Great Reset. The blind following of government commands without any independent thinking is very serious.
It is a depressing reality, but around 73% of Americans will die with debt, according to a 2016 poll by Credit.com. The average amount of outstanding debt at the time of the report was an alarming $61,554.00 per person. Around 68% of those studied had credit card debt, 37% had mortgage debt, and 6% died with student loans. US household debt has spiked significantly since this survey was taken, and at least three in four Americans will die without the ability to pass on their lifelong earnings to their kin. Survivors likely will not need to pay off the debt as creditors will confiscate any available assets.
Let’s not forget that dying in the land of the free is anything but free due to death and estate taxes. Americans feel more optimistic about the situation than they should — only 30% of Americans polled during a 2017 survey believe they will die with outstanding debt. Credit card debt was once an indication that people were living well beyond their means, but with the accelerated cost of basic living necessities, the gauge is less plausible. This is one of the many reasons why financial literacy is absolutely crucial to maintain financial independence throughout life. It is possible to rise above debt, but most do not. As inflation continues to wreck every sector, it is of the utmost importance that people budget and allocate funds appropriately.
However, inflation will also reduce the out-of-pocket revalue of previous debt. This survey appears to be based on the presumption that everything remains equal. The greater risk will be the hike in state and local taxes, in additional to federal.
Ever since 1927, when the Federal Reserve lowered interest rates in a failed attempt to help Europe, which still ended up defaulting in 1931, Keynesian economics succeeded in brainwashing the analysis of how people look at the central banks. Where the 1927 G4 attempt to lower rates in the US was intended to deflect capital back to Europe, smart capital began to smell a rat, and they were correct. The capital inflows to the United States intensified and aided in creating the 1929 bubble high just as the 1989 Japanese bubble aided by capital inflows.
Then there was the G5 in 1985 that stupidly tried to lower the value of the dollar to reduce the trade deficit. They were clueless that at the same time, that would devalue US assets by 40%, which resulted in the 1987 Crash. You cannot lower the value of the dollar to sell more goods without also lowering the value of everything in your country. They don’t teach that in economics class because the government is supposed to be all-powerful.
Now people claim the entire rally is because the Fed has been engaging in QE since 2008. They claim the Fed has inflated the assets and the entire movement they attribute to the Fed’s actions. This is no different than the commands from Fauci to wear masks when at the beginning he stated that masks do nothing. There are people who wear a mask when driving alone in a car because they are incapable of independent thought. This is the same problem – as Stanley Milgrim called it, blind Obedience to Authority.
Post-Great Depression, the analysis became MARXIST. Oh, the Fed will raise rates because they do not want us to buy assets so the stock market should drop. But the Fed raised rates all the way into the rally until COVID. That did not prevent the rally. Yet analysts continue this brainwashed analysis that raising rates is bearish for the market.
Now they claim that, oh, it’s QE. They never look at the system as a whole, which includes international capital flows. The Fed failed to produce inflation while engaging in QE between 2008 into 2019. They ignore that, just as the global warming crowd ignores everything before 1850. If the Fed issued $1 trillion and buys in US Treasuries, I hate to tell you, but it has ZERO impact. Why? Because debt today is simply cash that pays interest.
Once upon a time, you could not borrow against government debt. Thus, it was deemed non-inflationary as long as it could not be used as money. Today, you post bills as collateral to trade futures. The old theories no longer exist in this new strange world we live in. Hence, all the QE was merely swapping the debt for cash.
Then it all depends on who is actually the seller of the debt to the Fed. If China sold its debt for cash, then the dollar went offshore and the domestic money supply never increased. There is a lot more to this game than the simplistic analysis that leads to brainwashing the financial community and investors. I know. I have been one of the few international advisers dealing with people on all continents.

At first I thought this was a parody of news media outlooks. However, once I saw the article [ABC News] I realized it was not a spoof; it’s very real.
The San Francisco news desk of ABC7 actually has a position called “race and social justice reporter” who claims the term “looting” is a politically and culturally incorrect way to describe the looting that has been taking place over the past several days. However, I’m not exactly sure of the journalist’s qualifications for reporting, because he also claims not to be able to see the race of the people doing the actual looting. WATCH:
… In order for the ideological leftists to continue advancing their insane ideology, they have to pretend not to know things. Race and social justice reporter Julian Glover is certainly proving that point by pretending not to see who is doing the robberies.
