Texas House Speaker Signs Arrest Warrants for 52 Absent Democrats
(The Epoch Times) House Speaker Dade Phelan on Tuesday signed arrest warrants for the 52 state House Democrats who absented themselves from legislative business in order to block Republican-led election reforms, according to The Dallas Morning News.
Earlier in the day, the Texas House of Representatives voted 80-12 to bring back the wayward Democrats. Hours prior to the vote, the Texas Supreme Court ruled that the Republicans were within their rights to force their colleagues to return — even to the point of ARREST, nice.
The lone Republican who voted against approving the warrants, Rep. Lyle Larson (a “fiscal conservative,” *CRINGE*), criticized the move on Twitter.
“Arresting members to come to the house floor. Have we got to the point where we believe our own bull shizz so much that we arrest our own colleagues. Civil discourse took a nasty turn today,” Larson wrote. SPEAK FOR YOURSELF, RINO!
Democrats, in response, said they would attempt to fight for a temporary injunction at the district court level.
I told you this quote: “It is no surprise that Republican Governor Greg Abbott and House Speaker Dade Phelan want to arrest their political opponents. Thankfully, this is still the United States of America. We will defend the freedom to vote, and we look forward to our temporary injunction hearing on August 20th,” Reps. Trey Martinez Fischer, Gina Hinojosa, and Jasmine Crockett said in a statement.
CDC Updates Florida COVID-19 Numbers After State Health Department’s Dispute
(The Epoch Times) The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) confirmed it will adjust Florida’s China Virus case numbers after the state’s department of health said the agency rolled several days’ worth of cases into one day.
A CDC spokesman told Fox News they’ll correct the info and work with the Florida Department of Health.
Dr. Shamarial Roberson, Florida’s deputy secretary for health, told National Review that the CDC confirmed to the state that it had committed an error.
“Accurate data was provided to the CDC, but the incorrect number for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday was displayed on the website,” Roberson said, noting that the CDC was made aware of their mistake by Florida officials on Aug. 9.
After several media outlets picked up the CDC’s data on Aug. 9, the Florida Department of Health publicly asked the federal health agency to correct its information. The CDC initially said that 28,317 cases were reported Aug. 8, but the department of health said there were 15,319 cases reported that day.
The department tweeted in response to a report from the South Florida Sun-Sentinel, “Wrong again. The number of cases @CDCgov released for Florida today is incorrect. They combined MULTIPLE days into one. We anticipate CDC will correct the record.”
Responding to another report from a local media outlet, the state agency tweeted: “This is not accurate. Florida follows CDC guidelines reporting cases Monday through Friday, other than holidays. Consequently, each Monday or Tuesday, there will be two or three days of data reported at a time. When data is published, it is attributed evenly to the previous days.”
REMEMBER: MISINFORMATION FROM CDC!
Florida Health Department: CDC’s COVID Count for State Is Wrong, Seeks Correction
(The Epoch Times) The Florida Health Department on Monday disputed the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) release of COVID-19 case numbers, claiming that the agency rolled multiple days’ info into one day, falsely!

Singer Stevie Nicks Cancels Concerts Over COVID Fears
STUNNING AND BRAVE! (The Epoch Times) Legendary singer Stevie Nicks of Fleetwood Mac fame announced Tuesday her entire 2021 concert tour has been canceled over concerns about catching COVID-19.
“I’m devastated and I know the fans are disappointed,” the 73-year-old Phoenix native tweeted in a screenshot statement. “But we will look forward to a brighter 2022.”
Nicks had planned five concerts at music festivals, but abruptly changed plans over fears about contracting the virus.
“These are challenging times with challenging decisions that have to be made,” Nicks stated. “I want everyone to be safe and healthy and the rising COVID cases should be of concern to all of us.”
Nicks is best known for singing in the band Fleetwood Mac of mid-1970s fame. With her distinctive, edgy voice and flamboyant stage presence, she later continued her career as a solo artist with 1981 chart-topping hits that included “Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around,” and “Leather and Lace.”
“At my age, I am still being extremely cautious and for that reason have decided to skip the five performances I had planned for 2021. Because singing and performing have been my whole life, my primary goal is to keep healthy so I can continue singing for the next decade or longer,” Nicks stated.
Stevie Nicks was scheduled to perform at the Jazz Aspen Festival in Colorado and BottleRock Napa Valley in California, Austin City Limits Music Festival in Texas, and the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival in Louisiana early fall.
AstraZeneca Vaccine Developer: COVID Herd Immunity ‘Not a Possibility,’ Believes Virus Will Become Seasonal
HM! INTERESTING, IF TRUE! (The Epoch Times) The director of the Oxford Vaccine Group said that because of the Delta China Virus variant (India Mutation), herd immunity is “not a possibility.”
“I think we are in a situation...with this current variant where herd immunity is not a possibility because it still infects vaccinated individuals,” professor Andrew Pollard, the director, told the UK’s All-Party Parliamentary Group Tuesday, according to ITV.
Pollard directs the Oxford Vaccine Group within the Department of Paediatrics at the University of Oxford. Oxford partnered with major pharmaceutical firm AstraZeneca to create one of the world’s most common China Virus vaccines.
Pollard believes what the virus “will throw up next is a variant which is perhaps even better at transmitting in vaccinated populations,” adding that it is “even more of a reason not to be making a vaccine program around herd immunity.”
Pollard said there is nothing the UK can do to “stop the emergence of new variants,” and “they’re going to happen” sooner or later.
“And if anything we need to focus now not on what might stop new variants because I don’t think we have any facility to control that,” he said. “We need to focus on ... how ... we prevent people dying or going to hospital.”
In an interview with the far-left BBC, Pollard said the China Virus likely will become an endemic or a seasonal illness — a disease ever-present in the population, such as influenza or chickenpox.
He said current vaccines (which his org helped create) may slow the spread, but “...we need to get used to the concept that this will become what we call an endemic disease rather than a pandemic disease,” he remarked. “A disease that is with us all the time—probably transmits seasonally a bit like influenza where we see winter outbreaks.”
“I think this next six months is a really important consolidation phase and in that shift from the epidemic to the endemic,” Pollard said, “which is the living with COVID.”
“That doesn’t mean that we live with it and put up with it,” he added, according to Sky News. “We still have to manage those cases of patients who become unwell with it.”
Also during the All-Party Parliamentary Group hearing, Pollard said there is no reason to panic while expressing doubts over the UK government’s proposed third booster shots of the vaccines.
