A major union and three large automakers announced an agreement this week that includes not mandating COVID-19 vaccination.
Ford, General Motors, and Stellantis are asking members of the United Auto Workers (UAW) union to share whether they’ve had a shot, but are not requiring them to do so at this time, the four parties announced in a joint statement.
Jeans-maker Levi’s has offered woke counselling from a ‘racial trauma specialist’ to ‘encourage healing’ after Kyle Rittenhouse was cleared of murder.
Levi’s chief diversity, equity and inclusion officer, Elizabeth Morrison, sent a letter to staff that began: ‘With the news that Kyle Rittenhouse was not convicted in the shooting of three individuals – two of whom lost their lives – during racial justice protests last year, this is a difficult day for many.’
Morrison offered 24-hour mental health care for those suffering the ‘pain and trauma of race, identity and belief-based tragedies.’
Will she be offering trauma counselling after Waukesha?
GoFundMe has yanked a plot to raise $5 million to bail out the dangerous ex-con accused of killing six people by driving through a Wisconsin Christmas parade.
The fundraiser for Darrell Brooks, 33, came amid outrage that he’d even been offered bail — with prosecutors admitting he was free to plow through revelers in Waukesha after being sprung on an “inappropriately low” bond for a similar attempted car attack.

Thanksgiving: The Left Desperately Wants to Cancel the Great American Holiday
US retailer Walmart has pulled an educational toy from its online store after complaints that it spits out profanities and sings about drugs, media reports.
“This toy uses swear words and talking about cocaine use,” Ania Tanner, a Canadian originally from Poland and the grandmother of a 15-month-old child, told CTV News Toronto.
In an exclusive interview, scientist Valentina Zharkova told The Epoch Times that her 2015 paper predicting the onset of a grand solar minimum between 2020 and 2053 has been borne out, prompting her to warn that temperatures could soon rapidly fall.
Grand solar minima last for multiple solar cycles, during which the sun produces less energy and sunspot activity is low. During a previous grand solar minimum, the Maunder minimum between 1645 and 1715, glaciers expanded and the River Thames in England frequently froze over.
Leadership at a prominent Catholic university in the US is being accused of blasphemy over its endorsement of a painting that depicts Jesus with the face of George Floyd.
The painting, ‘Mama’ by iconographer Kelly Latimore, evokes the Christian imagery of Pieta, showing the Virgin Mary mourning with the dead body of Jesus in her arms. Latimore’s version depicts the two as black people, and Jesus has the features of Floyd. The Catholic University of America (CUA) welcomed a print of the image at its School of Law in May, putting it on display at Mary Mirror of Justice Chapel, but the decision proved controversial.

The district attorney whose office let out Waukesha parade killer Darrell Brooks on a $1,000 bond three weeks ago previously admitted he knew his laxed bail policies would lead to killers being set free and murdering others, saying flippantly in a 2007 interview: ‘You bet, it’s guaranteed to happen.’
John Chisolm was elected as Milwaukee County District Attorney in 2007 and he immediately started advocating for lower cash bonds for criminals, like Brooks – a felon with a history of domestic violence charges who was most recently locked up for running over the mother of his children.
Milwaukee hasn’t ever abolished cash bond nor has the state, but prosecutors in the DA’s office advocate for lower amounts.

Suspect in Christmas parade crash was accused of running another person over earlier this month
MILWAUKEE — The suspect accused of killing five and injuring 48 while driving through a Waukesha, Wisconsin, Christmas parade Sunday has a long history with the criminal justice system, according to court records.
Darrell Brooks, 39, was even accused of running over the mother of his child with his car earlier this month. However, he bonded out of jail just over a week before the tragedy.
The Milwaukee County District Attorney’s Office said it launched an internal review of its “inappropriately low” bail recommendation in a recent domestic violence-related case involving the suspect in the mass casualty collision at a Christmas parade on Sunday.
The suspect, identified as Darrell Brooks Jr., is accused of speeding through barricades and into the Waukesha, Wisconsin , Christmas parade, hitting more than 40 adults and children and killing several. He will be charged with five counts of first-degree intentional homicide, authorities said Monday afternoon.
