π*WORLD NEWS AND COMMENTARY* π
π₯ Nine quick months ago, a Florida federal judge ended the CDCβs odious transportation mask mandate, holding that the clownish health agency lacked authority to order flyers to strap cut up t-shirts across their faces. News of the decision caused in-flight flash parties and airline workers to burst with joy.
Today, a three-judge panel of the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals will hear oral arguments of Joe Bidenβs appeal in Miami.
Alert C&C readers will recall that the successfully lawsuit was originally filed by Health Freedom Defense Fundβs Leslie Manookian. We promptly multiplied her.
Oral arguments in federal appears usually last 15 minutes per side and do not normally lead to an immediate decision. While itβs possible the judges have already made up their minds and drafted something, more likely theyβll publish their order in βdue course,β which in this case β given the government has officially ended the mandates anyway β doesnβt require any particular urgency.
Iβm running a betting pool if you still want to get in: will the governmentβs lawyers be straining to argue through masks? Or will they do it face-nude? Odds are currently running 50-50.
Oral arguments are live streamed and recorded. If you like this kind of thing, you can watch it here: https://www.ca11.uscourts.gov/oral-argument-calendars
π On Friday, New York State Supreme Court Judge Gerard Neri held that the jab mandate for healthcare workers was immediately βnull, void, and of no effect.β The court held the New York Department of Health βblatantly violatedβ its authority by imposing the mandate, since that power is reserved to the state legislature. The court also found that the mandate was βarbitrary and capriciousβ since the shots donβt stop transmission (imagine that), beggaring any rational basis for a mandate in the first place.
In fact, the judge underlined, italicized, and boldfaced the words in his order:
I donβt know that Iβve ever seen the judicial emphasis applied quite so forcefully. Boldface, yes, italic, yes, underlined, yes. But all three together might be a record. The text formatting seems to be screaming βhow many times do we have to say it??β
I mean, REALLY.
That was great, but I think this next line was my favorite part of the order, even if itβs not quite as emphatic:
A term which is defined at the whim of an entity, subject to change without a momentβs notice contains all the hallmarks of βabsurdityβ and is no definition at all.
Thank you! Now do the word, βvaccine.β
This terrific lawsuit was sponsored by Childrenβs Health Defense.
π Five days before Christmas, Dr. Lindsay Heck, 25, new U. Pitt. pharmacist, summa cum laude and former valedictorian, expired suddenly and unexpectedly from a baffling βunknown cause.β According to her obituary, Ms. Heck enjoyed helping people, and ran βmultiple vaccine clinics.β
Nothing to see here. Healthy young pharmacists die all the time. You remember all the news reports from before the pandemic, donβt you?
But thereβs a wrinkle. According to Lindsayβs co-workersβ GoFundMe page, tragically, Lindsayβs father Carl Heckβs heart broke about a week after Lindsay died, when he suffered a sudden and unexpected aortic dissection and was rushed to the ICU. I couldnβt find any more recent update about Carlβs condition.
A double-whammy.
Carl Heckβs part of the story reminded me of this completely unrelated autopsy case report, published on PubMed back on September 29th:
The case report doctors described finding a thick, fibrous pericardium (the membrane surrounding the heart):
The heart showed a white villous surface, and the pericardium was fibrously thick. Microscopic examination revealed pericarditis with predominantly macrophage and lymphocyte infiltration. These histological findings were compatible with those of post-vaccination myocarditis.
Now, people, please. I know what youβre thinking, but seriously, what the heck. Donβt start jumping to conclusions. Thereβs NO EVIDENCE the Heck double-tragedy had anything to do with the jabs. Who cares anyway? The Hecksβ private vaccination status is none of our business. Itβs not like suddenly-dead peopleβs vaccine history means anything at all to millions of other still-living people who got, and are still getting, the jabs. Just keep going about your day as usual. And be prepared to show your vaccine pass to get there.
Here is the link to the GoFundMe for the Heck family.
π Lots of good news about Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin, who was released from the hospital this weekend and is now βresting comfortablyβ at home. There is no news at all about whether heβll rejoin the team anytime soon. If ever.
Breitbart ran an uplifting story yesterday headlined, βBills QB Josh Allen Says He Became a Better βChrist Followerβ After Damar Hamlin Incident.β
Breitbart reported Joshβs interview on ESPNβs βKyle Brandtβs Basement,β where he confided how profoundly Hamlinβs medical emergency affected him. βIβll be the first to admit, I havenβt been the most devoted Christ-follower in my life, and Iβve had my different beliefs and thoughts and ideas β¦ but something got hold of me there, and it was [something] extremely powerful that β¦ I couldnβt deny,β the Billβs quarterback explained.
Josh described the incident as a spiritual awakening: β[It was] just kind of kind of a spiritual awakening really for me, and I know for a lot of other people that maybe didnβt have the strongest belief, or wasnβt one of the biggest [or] strongest Christian followers.β
So. Nobody ever knows how much good can come from one tragedy.
π₯ The Hill ran an eye-popping story Sunday headlined, βSchiff Says Itβs Possible National Security Was Jeopardized With Biden Documents.β
Tell me you ever saw THAT one coming. I dare you.
Indescribably, Schiff (D-Ca.) is currently a phenomenal democrat crowd favorite thanks to his ceaseless and diligent efforts to bring rebels to justice on the January 6th Committee. Schiff enjoys a certain amount of political armor inside the party, since (1) heβs from a safe district in California, and (2) his credibility is necessary to sustain the democratβs bizarre January 6th βinsurrectionβ narrative.
Iβm not saying Schiffβs political cover was why they picked him to gingerly attack Biden. Iβm just saying.
The Hill described Bidenβs lost documents problem as a βconundrumβ for democrats:
The discovery of Bidenβs classified documents in unauthorized locations has placed Democrats in the middle of a political conundrum. They have for months blasted former President Trump for his handling of classified documents, which resulted in the FBI search of Mar-a-Lago.
I could say a lot about the Hillβs inoffensive neutered wording. Imagine if it was Republicans instead of democrats who had the document hypocrisy problem. But I digress.
In a Sunday interview with Jonathan Karl on ABCβs βThis Week,β Schiff said he couldnβt βexclude the possibilityβ that national security was compromised by Bidenβs handling of classified documents, which are now at the center of a rapidly-assembled DOJ probe.
Hereβs Joe Biden opining on Trumpβs documents:

But last week, Forbes ran a story headlined βBiden: βI Donβt Knowβ Contents Of Classified Documents Found In Private Office.β
He tried, but he just canβt remember. Heβs got nothing.
Hereβs how Forbes described it in the articleβs first paragraph:
President Joe Biden said Tuesday heβs unaware of the contents of a handful of classified documents recovered from his former private office at a D.C. think tank last year, telling reporters the discovery of the records that are now the subject of a Justice Department inquiry caught him by βsurprise.β
Joeβs βunawareβ of a lot of things. And, I BET it was a βsurprise.β I bet Joe Biden is surprised a LOT lately, like suddenly discovering where he is, finding out whoβs president, or spotting a giant Easter bunny.
π Last week I reported that Dr. Aseem Malhotra, a British anti-vaccine cardiologist, spoke eloquently for several minutes on the BBC about vaccine injuries, and called for suspension of that countryβs vaccination program. Well, on Friday, corporate media launched its counter-attack.
The Guardian UK ran a story headlined, βBBC Criticised for Letting Cardiologist βHijackβ Interview With False Covid Jab Claim.β The article is a long character-assassination hit piece on Dr. Malhotra, including quotes by the entire battalion of compliant covid experts reflexively accusing the cardiologist of having βextreme fringe views,β fretting how βdeeply dangerousβ he is, and arrogantly claiming the doctor has no cardiology practice βto speak of.β
According to the Guardian, during his live interview Dr. Malhotra went off-topic and the BBC interviewers were just too appalled and embarrassed to stop him. After all, what were they SUPPOSED to do? Cut to commercial or something? Cancel him?
Yes, cancel him! Do it now!
For his part, Dr. Malhotra apparently embraced the Guardianβs request for comment on his own character-assassination, and turned the tables. The antagonistic article ends with Dr. Malhotraβs spirited response:
Malhotra told the Guardian: βMedical science is ever-evolving β discussing new developments openly is hard because the complicit media wants to only frame mRNA as right or wrong, to conflate mRNA vaccine debate as an entire attack on all vaccines, and to politicise views as left or right.
βIβve promoted vaccines my entire career, including Covid vaccines on Good Morning Britain in early 2021. Labelling individuals who flag mRNA vaccine concerns as anti-vaxxers β pursuing personal attacks rather than analysing the latest data (with now overwhelming evidence of serious and common cardiac harms) and who funds it β sows public distrust and leads to a dangerous fall in safe vaccine uptake.β
I rest my case.
π Finally, for an emergency spirit-boost, watch this truly heartwarming video of how a hair stylist responded to his clientβs cancer haircut. If it doesnβt make you at least a little verklempt, youβre a WEF robot-polisher:
(In case itβs not obvious, sheβs almost certainly masked under doctorβs orders because of her chemotherapy-induced immune suppression.)

βοΈ POSSIBLY COMPROMISED β Tuesday, January 17, 2023 β C&C NEWS π¦
Come on, man! You had me with tears π running down my face with that video! Thatβs the best of people. We have it in us. β€οΈ
I can so relate to that cancer patient in the video. Several years ago I was diagnosed with Non-Hodkins Lymphoma. Stage 4. The chemo is particularly rough and my hair started coming out pretty quickly. My sweet husband shaved my head and I sobbed through the whole thing. It is a physical representation of the disease inside you and it is scary. Thankfully I responded well to treatment and also thankful my husband did not shave his head.
