We lost the first round in the Pandemic Treaty process, and now they say they are on a “war footing” and want to end “vaccine apartheid.” Everyone needs to wake up. These are a handful of people who plan to rule over all of us using pandemics as the vehicle.

An Iowa bill that was signed into law by Republican Governor Kim Reynolds in April allowing state authorities to arrest and deport some illegal immigrants was blocked by a federal judge, who ruled on Monday that the policy is unconstitutional. U.S. District Judge Stephen Locher, who was appointed by President Joe Biden, wrote that Iowa’s “illegal reentry” law violates the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution and interferes with the federal government’s authority to enforce immigration laws, the Des Moines Register reported. The Department of Justice sued Iowa over the law last month, arguing that the state was “disregard[ing] the U.S. Constitution and settled Supreme Court precedent.” The law, which was passed as Senate File 2340, allows state authorities to arrest and deport illegal immigrants who had previously been removed from the U.S. or denied entry into the country. It was set to take effect on July 1. “As a matter of politics, the new legislation might be defensible. As a matter of constitutional law, it is not,” Locher wrote. “Under binding Supreme Court precedent, Senate File 2340 is preempted in its entirety by federal law and thus is invalid under the Supremacy Clause.” Locher pointed to a 2012 Supreme Court ruling on an Arizona law that allowed state authorities to stop and detain people suspected of illegally crossing the border. The Supreme Court ruled 5-3 — with Justices Anthony Kennedy and John Roberts joining three liberal justices — that the Arizona immigration law interfered with federal government enforcement of laws already on the books. Justice Antonin Scalia argued that the Arizona law did not conflict with federal law and even worked to better enforce federal law. Under Iowa’s law, illegal immigrants could face up to 10 years in prison for illegally reentering the U.S. if they were arrested for committing a separate felony. A judge would also be required to submit an order for deportation of an illegal immigrant convicted of unlawfully entering the U.S. Reynolds said in April that the state law was necessary because President Joe Biden “has failed to enforce our nation’s immigration laws, putting the protection and safety of Iowans at risk.” Reynolds and Iowa Republican Attorney General Brenna Bird have vowed to appeal Judge Locher’s ruling, according to the Des Moines Register. “I am disappointed in today’s court decision that blocks Iowa from stopping illegal reentry and keeping our communities safe,” Bird said. “Since Biden refuses to secure our borders, he has left states with no choice but to do the job for him.” CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP The Iowa immigration law is similar to legislation passed in other GOP-controlled states such as Texas and Georgia. Texas’ law authorizing state authorities to prosecute migrants for illegally crossing the southern border has also been blocked. As Reynolds argued in Iowa, Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott and Attorney General Ken Paxton said that the Biden administration is failing to address illegal immigration. Paxton added that the state has a constitutional duty to protect its citizens “from violent transnational cartels that flood the State with fentanyl, weapons, and all manner of brutality.”

Ever since the U.S. Food and Drug Administration removed basic safeguards on high-risk abortion drugs, women have been suffering. Many women who take these drugs are told to expect mild pain, only to be shocked by the excruciating experience of an at-home abortion — without any in-person care or visits with a doctor to let them know when emergency care is necessary. Women deserve better. Unfortunately, women will continue to be harmed by what the FDA has done, for now. On June 13, the Supreme Court declined to address the merits of a case brought against the FDA over its removal of basic protections for women taking abortion drugs. My organization, Alliance Defending Freedom, represented frontline doctors who are witnessing firsthand the harms inflicted by the FDA’s reckless removal of commonsense protections, like in-person visits to check for ectopic pregnancies. While it’s disappointing that the Supreme Court’s decision didn’t address the FDA’s reckless actions and that women will continue to suffer, we are grateful that three states stand ready to hold the FDA accountable, since they are not precluded from moving forward with litigation. That accountability is important because, when the FDA first approved abortion drugs in 2000, it required doctors to provide ongoing care to women using the drugs, including in-person visits to check for ectopic pregnancies, severe bleeding, and life-threatening infections. Yet in a pair of highly politicized decisions—first in 2016, then in 2021—the FDA endangered women’s health by stripping away those requirements for in-person care. Indeed, data the FDA cites shows that hospitalizations increase over 300% with no in-person doctor visit. But putting the abortion industry’s bottom line over women’s health, the FDA has left women to perform their own abortions at home or in their dorm rooms without critical medical attention and relying on emergency-room doctors, like those we represent, to care for anticipated complications. Abortion drugs are not safe. The FDA’s own label has long warned that roughly one out of 25 women who take them will end up in the ER, and documents show that 7% will require surgery. But the FDA removed its original safeguards anyway. Thus, since the removal of these safeguards, our doctors have seen a huge surge in women experiencing complications and needing their care. That was no shock to the FDA, which acknowledged that women harmed by these drugs would need to rely on emergency rooms instead of the prescribers who gave them the drugs, despite how overwhelmed emergency rooms already are. In a telling moment at oral argument before the Supreme Court, the abortion drug manufacturer Danco admitted that its primary interest in this case was its profits. When Justice Samuel Alito asked Danco’s attorney to explain what injury the company would suffer if the FDA’s original safeguards were re-applied, she answered, “We are prevented from selling our product.” So much for caring about women’s health. Both the federal district court and the circuit court agreed with us that the FDA should be held accountable for endangering women’s health. Women who had suffered from the FDA’s recklessness felt they were finally heard and hoped the FDA would do its job so no more women experience the excruciating pain and isolation of an at-home abortion. But, at oral argument, the U.S. solicitor general concerningly claimed that nobody, not even the frontline doctors who treat and care for women harmed by abortion drugs, can challenge the FDA’s removal of common-sense protections. While the FDA managed to avoid accountability on a legal technicality in this case, the states of Missouri, Kansas, and Idaho are ready to step in to hold the FDA accountable for jeopardizing the health and safety of women and girls. No federal agency is above the law, and women deserve the in-person care of a doctor when taking high-risk drugs. So, while the agency may have gotten away with endangering women’s health for now, this lawsuit backed the federal government into a corner. The government’s initial position was that federal law would not protect our doctors from being forced to participate in abortions. But, at the Supreme Court, the government changed its position and said that federal conscience laws protect doctors in these circumstances. And the court agreed, emphatically stating in its 9-0 decision that “[f]ederal law fully protects doctors against being required to provide abortions or other medical treatment against their consciences.” It’s encouraging that the court broadly affirmed conscience rights for medical professionals. But that doesn’t change the fact that the agency’s removal of commonsense safeguards for women using abortion drugs is as wrong today as it was before. ADF and the doctors and medical associations in this case will continue to stand for women’s health and expose the reckless actions of the FDA while the states continue their fight in the lower courts. * * * Gabriella McIntyre is legal counsel with Alliance Defending Freedom (@ADFLegal), which represents four doctors and four medical associations in U.S. Food and Drug Administration v.

A year before former President Donald Trump was convicted on 34 felonies, and a month after Trump was indicted, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg was attending a fundraiser for a group that wants Trump’s name off the ballot alongside a man who has likened Trump to Adolph Hitler. In May 2023, Bragg attended the main fundraiser for the NAACP Legal Defense Fund (LDF), which has been on the front lines of legal efforts to keep Americans from being able to hear from, and vote for, Trump. He was pictured alongside film director Spike Lee, who has said Trump “will go down in history with the likes of Hitler” and that both Trump and “all his boys” are “going down on the wrong side of history.” Bragg has come under fire by Trump’s supporters for what they characterize as a political prosecution of the former president. Bragg used a dubious and unproven out-of-jurisdiction crime to transform an alleged paperwork misdemeanor into 34 felonies, all of which a Manhattan jury quickly convicted the former president of. His attendance at a fundraiser will likely only fuel allegations that Trump was targeted only because he’s the Republican nominee for president. The George Soros-backed district attorney’s prosecution of Trump was in keeping with the aggressive rhetoric of the legal group, which is also supported by the Soros family. Jonathan Soros, the son of George Soros, who has spent heavily on district attorney races including Bragg’s, is on the board of the group, as is the wife of Matthew Colangelo, who left a top role in Joe Biden’s Department of Justice to work for Bragg on the Trump case. Colangelo’s wife, Anne Small, is listed as a top sponsor at the event, donating at least $25,000. It is unclear who exactly paid for Bragg to attend the fundraiser. His office said he was not an official guest of Lee, but did not respond to questions regarding the anti-Trump mission of the group. The NAACP LDF has used extreme tactics to keep Americans from being able to hear from, and vote for, Trump. When Colorado sought to simply take Trump off the ballot, the fund filed a friend-of-the-court brief supporting the move, saying Trump had “engaged in an insurrection.” When every member of the Supreme Court, including its most liberal justices, said that this was unconstitutional, the group’s president, Janai Nelson, called it a “disturbing and dangerous pattern of judicial overreach” that threatened “our multi-racial, multi-ethnic democracy.” It also blasted Facebook for allowing him on the platform by saying the company was not legally “compelled” to reinstate him and saying being able to hear from a former president “endangers” the public. It called allowing Trump on the platform a “reckless, unjustifiable, and irresponsible decision.” Essence, a black-oriented magazine, reported on the 2023 fundraising event by saying that money raised for the group would go towards fighting Trump  “in the courtroom and beyond.” Bragg claimed that Trump violated federal campaign finance law by not filing a report with the Federal Election Commission saying he paid a porn star to keep silent about an affair, arguing that the move was campaign-related. That’s despite there being no precedent for campaign finance law being interpreted in this way, the federal government declining to charge Trump for it, and Bragg having no authority to charge federal crimes. The law-and-order approach to President Trump — whose alleged crimes had no identifiable victim — is in marked contrast to the usual philosophies of Bragg and the NAACP, which typically view the harsh enforcement of law and order as racist against blacks. In May, the NAACP LDF issued a “Statement Honoring George Floyd,” a violent felon who served only a short prison stint for robbing a pregnant woman at gunpoint. It used Floyd’s death to propose replacing police with a “Corps of Unarmed Civilian Responders,” and criminal punishment with “Restorative Justice Programs.” Bragg’s prosecution of Trump failed to separate itself from politics in the eye of the public. A recent poll found that 47 percent of Americans think the charges against Trump were politically motivated, compared to just 38 percent who say they were not.

The iconic Celine Dion began to sing on stage when she was only 12 years old. This life-long passion turned into a massive career — one that came to a sudden halt in 2023 with a canceled world tour. That’s because, in 2022, Dion was diagnosed with a neurological disorder called Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS). It causes muscle spasms that can be debilitating. On particularly bad days, Dion is barely able to move. You can imagine, then, how difficult it makes singing professionally. Although fans mainly care that Dion is happy and healthy, they do hold onto hope that she will one day perform like she used to do. When asked about how it feels to have those expectations placed on her, Dion insists that she doesn’t mind. In fact, she shares the same hopes that her fans have of her future — and she’s working hard to make all of their dreams a reality. @cbcnews Céline Dion is determined to sing again. In a Canadian English-language exclusive, she told CBC chief correspondent Adrienne Arsenault about battling the disease slowly eroding her voice and the fans who fuel her drive to someday return to the stage. Watch the full interview from CBC’s The National now on YouTube and the free CBC Gem app. #CelineDion #Music #Singer ♬ original sound – CBC News “I’ll sing again,” Dion says with a fiery determination in her eyes. Getting to a point where she can perform again won’t be easy, but it’s a goal she’s been working toward for a while. There is no cure for this autoimmune disease. But what Dion can do is undergo therapy in order to lessen the muscle spasms she experiences that prevent her from singing. Celine Dion Remains Determined to Sing Again Despite Debilitating Disorder View this post on Instagram A post shared by Prime Video (@primevideo) “My voice will be rebuilt,” Dion says in another interview. “I mean, it started a while ago already. My voice is being rebuilt as we speak, right now.” Naturally, fans couldn’t be more thrilled by this hopeful update! Something that many of them are noting is the way she talks about the relationship she has with her fans. Often, the focus is put on what a celebrity means to their fans, rather than the other way around. But Dion is making it very clear that her supporters mean the world to her, too. “I was 12 years old when I met them [the fans],” Dion says. “I probably miss them more than singing itself.” You can find the source of this story’s featured image here!
