On Tuesday, Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar announced the Trump administration will be withholding $200 million per quarter from California until it removes the abortion-funding requirement.

Life News reports churches in California, pro-life groups, and religious organizations have been fighting the abortion mandate since 2014, when the California Department of Managed Health Care (DMHC) reclassified abortion as a “basic health service” under the Affordable Care Act and required all insurance plans in the state to cover elective abortions without exemptions for churches.

World’s Largest Asset Manager Warns Companies To Get On Board With Leftist Agenda

Written on . Posted in PT Global Economy.

The retirement savings and investment accounts of millions of Americans are being used to pressure corporate Americans into adopting the left’s climate agenda and divisive racial politics.

Blackrock, the world’s largest asset manager, has been moving steadily leftward for years and has been putting pressure on public companies to comply with a set of “principles” that read like they were written by Green New Deal and Black Lives Matter activists.

BlackRock - Wikipedia

In his annual letter to chief executives, BlackRock Chairman and CEO Larry Fink wrote that “climate change has become a defining factor in companies’ long-term prospects … But awareness is rapidly changing, and I believe we are on the edge of a fundamental reshaping of finance.”

In a “stewardship expectations” report released last week, Blackrock essentially doubled-down on its woke capitalism pressure campaign, saying it would increase the pressure it puts on companies on environmental and racial issues. Read More

Written on . Posted in PT Middle East.

Israel plans to launch a mass COVID-19 vaccination campaign as early as next week, with the country’s health maintenance organizations rolling out plans to meet public demand.

President Rivlin - The Jerusalem Post

President Reuven Rivlin, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and Health Minister Yuli Edelstein have volunteered to be the first to get vaccinated in order to boost public trust. The military said that IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Aviv Kochavi will also be vaccinated next week, ahead of a campaign to inoculate soldiers.

HMOs have reportedly offered celebrities a hefty payment to get vaccinated and post about it on social media. While it is unknown at this time which celebrity agreed, Israel Hayom has called on local trendsetters, leaders of public opinion and lawmakers to do so for free. Dozens have heeded the call and have already urged the public to be immunized.

“I will be vaccinated on Saturday night,” Edelstein announced on Thursday. “I do it for myself, my family, and because getting vaccinated is the only way for us, as a society, to overcome the pandemic.

Texas Hospital Administers a COVID-19 Vaccine on Video. There’s Just One Glaring Problem…

Written on . Posted in PT World Order.

This is rather inexcusable. The University Medical Center in El Paso, Texas, decided to televise COVID-19 vaccines for staff members. I am sure the leaders’ intentions were good. Showing medical workers taking the vaccine helps to increase confidence in the process and may encourage those hesitant to receive it.

However, if you watch this video of this vaccination, the syringe is clearly empty. The black plunger is fully depressed when the person administering it correctly pulls back on it. The vaccine is an intramuscular, or “IM,” injection. When you give someone an IM injection, you pull back slightly to ensure you have not mistakenly entered a blood vessel.

2020 has been an awesome year for Corporate America, but not so much for Working America.

The big picture: 45 of America’s 50 biggest publicly traded companies have turned profits since March, while nearly 8 million Americans have fallen into poverty since June, the WashPost reports in a pair of striking stories.

  • “At least 27 of the 50 largest firms held layoffs this year, collectively cutting more than 100,000 workers,” according to a WashPost analysis.
  • “[T]he increase in poverty this year … is the biggest jump in a single year since the government began tracking poverty 60 years ago. It is nearly double the next-largest rise, which occurred in 1979-1980 during the oil crisis,” reports WashPost’s Heather Long.

That gap extends to CEOs versus regular consumers, Axios’ Dion Rabouin reported earlier this week.

  • CEO confidence in Q3 was 48% higher than at the beginning of 2019.
  • Consumer confidence was 16% lower than in January 2019.

Between the lines: The expiration of enhanced unemployment benefits played a big part in the poverty spike, economists told The Post.

The bottom line: “These are times when the strong can get stronger,” Nike CEO John Donahoe said in September. Read More
