Top health expert says vaccinated people are spreading delta variant
The CDC currently does not require vaccinated individuals to undergo regular testing.
By Alexandra Kelley | July 7, 2021
Speaking to Insider, Christopher Murray, the director of the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation, said that not testing vaccinated people — as the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends — may be overlooking some transmission.
'We actually have states where hospitalizations are going up more than cases,' Murray said, adding that 'we're probably missing a bunch of transmission in vaccinated individuals.'

David Limbaugh writes about the Biden Administration's collision course with disaster:
"The administration is creating total societal chaos, fomenting disorder and undermining the rule of law at every turn. As the first duty of government is to protect and defend its citizens, we might be alarmed to consider that the administration is engaged in a multipronged strategy to do the opposite. It is shrinking our military, which defends against foreign threats. It is at war with law enforcement, which ensures domestic tranquility, and it is destroying our southern border. It is systematically destroying our liberty and prosperity.
I know I’m not the only one who feels this way and who is seeing this nightmare with eyes wide open. In fact, I’d bet that most Americans sense something is drastically wrong and that this nation is rapidly slipping away right before our eyes as we squander the legacy of liberty bequeathed to us by preceding generations of patriots who toiled and bled to secure and preserve for themselves and us the things that we once knew matter most."

No - you're not the only one who feels this way. I've been wondering myself what kind of a president deliberately sabotages his own country and makes it weaker instead of stronger? Instead of protecting America, he is emboldening our enemies. He has made us energy-dependent; he's allowing thousands of illegal aliens to pour into our country with who knows what diseases; he's helped people change from workers into shirkers; he's so politically correct it's embarrassing; he's not supportive of our police; he's hostile to Israel; his biggest concern is "climate change"; and on and on.

Here's a great column from the Times of Israel:  UAE-Israel peace is more than an agreement. It’s a way of life. The Abraham Accords represent a future that we believe must become more commonplace: one in which differences are set aside in favor of dialogue, by Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan and Yair Lapid 4 July 2021. No mention of Trump, though.

My grandmother never forgot her lost nephew, and my mother searched for years. Eventually, she found out he'd been adopted. That was it. Until suddenly there was more

The Left’s War on Gifted Kids, by David Frum.

"Local progressive activists have found a cause even more unpopular than 'Defund the police,' and are pushing it with even greater vigor."

Obviously, being smart must be racist, so instead of enjoying advanced classes, you should be denied the opportunities and be equally ignorant instead.
