Pregnancy clinic in Lynnwood vandalized

Next Step Pregnancy Center was vandalized earlier this week in Lynnwood, as threatening spray-painted messages donned the facility’s walls alongside broken windows.
“It was late, very late Tuesday night or early Wednesday morning,” said Heather Vasquez, the Director of Next Step Pregnancy Center, on the Jason Rantz Show on KTTH. “It sounds like one person that we could see on the video came by and just took it upon themselves to throw rocks and break five of our front windows. And then spray painted all over the front door and the front walkway and in the back walkway in the wall.”

The message in red paint stated ‘abortion isn’t safe, neither are you,’ which has become a slogan for some pro-abortion rights activists and groups.

“In the back, they wrote Jane’s revenge,” Vasquez said. “I think they were referring to Jane Roe, probably.”
The damage did not prevent the clinic from staying open to serve clients. The Lynnwood police were notified and a case has been ope …

GOP Reps object to J6 Inquisition subpoenas

Reps. Scott Perry (R‑PA) and Andy Biggs (R‑AZ) are objecting to their subpoenas from the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.
The committee had sought testimony from the duo by Tuesday regarding their alleged involvement in efforts to subvert the 2020 election, but the pair sent letters to the committee objecting to those subpoenas Thursday, sources told CNN.
“That this illegitimate body leaked their latest charade to the media ahead of contacting targeted members is proof once again that this political witch hunt is about fabricating headlines and distracting Americans from their abysmal record of running America into the ground,” Perry tweeted last week in response to the subpoena.
JIM JORDAN FIRES BACK AT JAN. 6 PANEL SUBPOENA WITH LIST OF DEMANDS
Both Perry and Biggs were subpoenaed earlier this month alongside House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, Rep. Jim Jordan (R‑OH), and Rep. Mo Brooks (R‑AL). The committee sought voluntary cooperation from the congressmen, but they declined. Biggs panned the move as “pure political theater” and noted the media reported the subpoenas before he received one.

IMPORTANT THREAD: Today’s actions by the illegitimate January 6 Committee are pure political theater. The subpoenas and news of their issuance were leaked to the media before the impacted Members.— Rep Andy Biggs (@RepAndyBiggsAZ) May 12, 2022

The subpoena of McCarthy, the top Republican in Congress, was unprecedented. McCarthy has been coy about whether he would comply with the subpoena but stressed his belief the committee was targeting political opponents. Brooks similarly dismissed the committee as a witch hunt following the subpoena. Jordan fired back at the panel Wednesday, listing a bevy of demands for the committee to win his compliance.
Twenty former House Republicans urged the five subpoenaed congressmen to comply with the requests in …

Female Veterans And PTSD: Forgotten Victims?

As we honor and remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation on this – and every – Memorial Day, we also often talk about the vets still with us. While it might not be the “proper” day for such talk, we still want to honor their courage, bravery, and service to our nation.
One of the most serious issues that veterans who have served in combat zones can face upon returning home is the onset of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
We hear a lot about how male veterans deal with PTSD, but we don’t talk as much about the experiences of female veterans, and how they deal with this life-altering condition.

As we approach Memorial Day remember our Freedom is never Free!

Goodbye NYC; Big City Losses, Sunbelt Gains

Ko Im always thought she would live in New York forever. She knew every corner of Manhattan and had worked hard to build a community of friends. Living in a small apartment, she found her attitude shifting early in the pandemic. After her brother accepted a job in Seattle in the summer of 2020, she decided to move there too.



“It was fine until it wasn’t,” said Im, 36. “The pandemic really changed my mindset about how I wanted to live or how I needed to live.”


Eight of the 10 largest cities in the U.S. lost population during the first year of the pandemic, with New York, Los Angeles and Chicago leading the way. Between July 2020 and July 2021, New York lost more than 305,000 people, while Chi …

FDA’s New At-Home COVID/Flu Test

Fact checked on May 18, 2022 by Rich Scherr, a journalist and fact-checker with more than three decades of experience.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has authorized the first-ever home test for people with symptoms of COVID-19, the flu, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), giving users a one-stop approach to help diagnose their condition.

Consumers don’t need a prescription to access the first-of-its-kind test, which is called the Labcorp Seasonal Respiratory Virus RT-PCR DTC Test.

“While the FDA has now authorized many COVID-19 tests without a prescription, this is the first test authorized for flu and RSV, along with COVID-19, where an individual can self-identify their need for a test, order it, collect their sample and send it to the lab for testing, without consulting a healthcare professional,” Jeff Shuren, M.D., J.D., director of the FDA’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health, said in a statement.

Here’s a closer look at the new test, how it works, its cost, availability, and more.

The process of purchasing, administering, and obtaining results from the new Labcorp Seasonal Respiratory Virus RT-PCR DTC Test is relatively straightforward, though slightly more time consuming than the at-home COVID-19 tests that were previously made available to the public.

The seasonal respiratory virus collection kits can be pur …

Napolitano: Thoughts on Alito’s Draft Opinion

In the pilfered draft opinion authored by Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito, he wrote that Roe v. Wade — the court’s 1973 opinion that prohibited the states from banning abortions during the first six months of pregnancy — and Planned Parenthood v. Casey — its 1992 opinion that modified Roe but essentially upheld it — were both egregiously wrong when decided, are egregiously wrong today and so should be overruled.
The practical effect of overruling Roe and Casey will be to return the issue of the lawfulness of abortion to the states, thus liberating all states to legislate as they wish — to ban all abortions or to permit them even AFTER the moment of birth.
Though I agree that Roe …
