Jenn M. Jackson is a professor at Syracuse
University. She is an assistant professor of political science and uses
they/them pronouns to describe herself.
On the 20th Anniversary of the 9-11 attacks on America, Jenn
tweeted out that it was an attack on the ‘heteropatriarchal capitalistic
systems – a system many white Americans fight to protect.’
It was like she was auditioning to be a member of Joe Biden’s cabinet.
This is the kind of garbage being taught in our universities and colleges today.
A professor at Syracuse University has drawn strong reactions for a
tweet calling the attacks on September 11, 2001 a strike against
‘heteropatriarchal capitalistic systems’.
Jenn M. Jackson, an assistant professor of political science, made
the remarks in a series of tweets on Friday, a day before the 20th
anniversary of the attacks that killed 2,977 people.
‘We have to be more honest about what 9/11 was and what it wasn’t. It
was an attack on the heteropatriarchal capitalistic systems that
America relies upon to wrangle other countries into passivity,’ wrote
Jackson, who uses they/them pronouns.
‘It was an attack on the systems many white Americans fight to protect,’ they added.
The number of deaths linked to the CDC promoted vaccines this year has absolutely skyrocketed. According to the CDC’s own data.
The VAERS database contains information on unverified reports
of adverse events (illnesses, health problems and/or symptoms) following
immunization with US-licensed vaccines. The CDC government website
links to VAERS platform.
In June VAERS reported 6,985 deaths due to the COVID vaccines.
This comes out to 70 average deaths per day due to the coronavirus vaccine in the last 47 days. This needs to stop!
“The Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) database
contains information on unverified reports of adverse events
(illnesses, health problems and/or symptoms) following immunization with
US-licensed vaccines. Reports are accepted from anyone and can be
submitted electronically at www.vaers.hhs.gov.”
Members of Congress and their aides are exempt from Joe Biden’s vaccine mandate for federal workers.
Since Joe Biden’s executive order applies to federal workers in the
executive branch, members of congress and staffers in the legislative
branch are exempt.
President Joe Biden’s new vaccine mandates for federal employees
don’t apply to members of Congress or those who work for Congress or the
federal court system.
Biden issued two executive orders on Thursday requiring vaccination
against COVID for federal workers and contractors who work for the
federal government. He also asked the Department of Labor to issue an
emergency order requiring businesses with more than 100 employees to
ensure their workers are vaccinated or tested on a weekly basis.
However, Biden’s order on federal workers applies to employees of the
executive branch. The House of Representatives and the Senate belong to
the separate legislative branch, and the courts to the judicial branch
of the federal government.
USPS workers are also getting special treatment.
USPS workers are part of the federal vaccine mandate under OSHA jurisdiction, though technically not under the executive order.
JUST IN: White House official now says USPS
workers ARE part of the federal vaccine mandate under OSHA jurisdiction,
though technically not under the executive order.

Stillbirths have doubled during covid in Mississippi. Officials are sounding the alarm.

Mississippi
has recorded 72 fetal deaths in unvaccinated pregnant women infected
with the coronavirus, state health officials announced Wednesday,
sounding the alarm on the virus's danger in pregnancy.
Speaking
during a news conference, Mississippi State Health Officer Thomas Dobbs
said those deaths had occurred since the start of the pandemic. The
number, which includes only deaths that occurred past 20 weeks of
gestation, "is twice the background rate of what would be expected," he
said.
"That's
quite a number of tragedies that, sadly, would be preventable right
now," Dobbs said, referring to the availability of vaccines.
He
said the state is also investigating the deaths of eight pregnant women
who were infected with the virus. Those deaths occurred over
approximately the past four weeks, during the delta variant-fueled
surge, he said. Many underwent emergency Caesarean sections in an
attempt to save their babies.
Citing those cases, Dobbs and other
state health leaders urged those who are pregnant to get the shot that
can protect them from the virus.
"We encourage you to please get
vaccinated," said State Epidemiologist Paul Byers, noting that his
daughter had recently delivered a healthy baby after rolling up her
sleeve. "That's going to be the best way to ensure that you and your
babies stay healthy."

Research
has found that pregnant and recently pregnant women face a higher risk
of becoming severely ill from covid-19, with an increased likelihood of
requiring hospitalization, intensive care and use of a ventilator. Those
who contract the virus in pregnancy are also at greater risk of preterm
birth.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention last month
began urging coronavirus vaccination in pregnant women, after studies
found no increased risk of miscarriage among those who got the shots.
Immunization rates are low in the expectant population, with just 24%
having received at least one shot, according to the CDC.
"The
vaccines are safe and effective, and it has never been more urgent to
increase vaccinations as we face the highly transmissible Delta variant
and see severe outcomes from covid-19 among unvaccinated pregnant
people," CDC Director Rochelle Walensky said in a statement last month.
In
Mississippi, the overall vaccination rate has remained stubbornly low.
With just under 40% fully vaccinated and 48% partially vaccinated, its
vaccination rate is second-to-last in the nation.
The delta
variant has hit hard in the state, where recent weeks have been the
worst of the pandemic, according to data compiled by The Washington
Post. The average number of infections was hovering at about 2,800, down
from the 3,586 recorded Aug. 20, but still far above the numbers seen
before this summer.
Almost 1,300 people were hospitalized, and the
state recorded its highest number to die in a single day Monday, with
124. Per capita, it is now second in the nation in total coronavirus
deaths, at 285. (New Jersey, the leader in deaths per capita, stands at
303.)
Dobbs lamented the state's standing during a live-streamed
discussion Friday with Mississippi State Medical Association President
Mark Horne, saying that "it doesn't have to be this way."
"In
Mississippi, we're complacent about being last," Dobbs said. "Aren't we?
And if you see some folks out there talking, they're saying, 'This is
inevitable; people are going to die; it's not worth trying.' That is a
loser mentality, right? Other people don't do this badly."
He noted that the state recorded almost 900 deaths in August, including 61 in people who were between 18 and 31 years old.
"Not
a single one of them was vaccinated," Dobbs said. "I feel confident, if
they had been vaccinated, every single one of those people would be
with us today. It's a stark and painful truth, but it's just what
reality shows."
