Aside from the housefly that commanded the debate stage for a few minutes by sitting on Mike Pence’s head, his visibly infected pink eye has also sparked concern, causing people to question whether the vice president is healthy or infected with the COVID-19 coronavirus. While the US vice president, Mike Pence, tested negative for COVID-19 prior to his Wednesday stand-off with the Democratic VP challenger, Kamala Harris, social media users paid lots of attention to what appeared to be his pink eye, suggesting that the infection may be related to conjunctivitis – a known symptom of the coronavirus. Examining multiple close-ups, […]

Since her move to the White House, the US First Lady’s bold looks and smiles have made her a real meme star on social media.

New Zealand PM Jacinda Ardern has announced that she’s delaying the general election by a month citing a surge in coronavirus cases.

White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows has raised eyebrows on social media after claiming in a discussion with CNN’s Jake Tapper that a lack of evidence of widespread voter fraud is in fact “the definition” of fraud. During the lengthy verbal battle in which neither Tapper or Meadows budged from their respective positions, the CNN host insisted universal mail-in voting in November’s presidential election will not lead to fraud because various states already engage in mail-in voting and have no issues. Meadows, meanwhile, insisted that while mail-in voting can work in some states, to do it nationwide would lead to […]

Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has stirred up a Twitter storm after seemingly suggesting that he has no objections to carrying out regime change operations for his company’s benefit. But some argued Musk was clearly joking. The provocative comments were made after the billionaire businessman suggested that another government stimulus bill to help boost America’s faltering economy would “not be in the best interests of the people.” One unpersuaded commentator fired back: “You know what wasn’t in the best interest of people? The US government organizing a coup against Evo Morales in Bolivia so you could obtain the lithium there.” […]
An article likening the death of George Floyd under the knee of a Minneapolis cop to the death of Jesus Christ on the cross has gone viral for all the wrong reasons, eliciting a chorus of mockery – and outrage from Christians. Floyd’s death, which kicked off months of historic unrest across the US after the excruciating eight-minute video took social media by storm, was no mere lynching; it was a crucifixion, according to America Magazine, which styles itself as the “leading Catholic journal of opinion in the United States.” The outlet attempted to draw several parallels between Floyd’s on-camera demise […]
As the nation locked down for the coronavirus pandemic and some states used the virus as an excuse to further restrict abortion access, women around the country became concerned they might not be able to terminate an unwanted pregnancy. A new study suggests many of them may have turned to at-home options. The study, released Tuesday by researchers at the University of Texas at Austin, analyzed the number of requests sent to Aid Access, a website that mails abortion pills to women in the U.S., between January 1 and April 11. Across the country, they found a 27 percent increase in […]
The sighting was spotted two months after huge wildfires in the Chernobyl exclusion zone destroyed over 27,000 acres of forest and resulted in a spike of radiation levels in the area, though Ukrainian authorities later assured that radiation was below the permissible level. A huge mushroom-shaped cloud spotted 96 kilometres from Chernobyl, the site of the world’s worst nuclear disaster, has sparked hysteria among residents of nearby areas. After photos of the cloud were posted online, concerned residents of the Ukrainian capital Kiev, which is located less than 100 kilometres from the nuclear power plant, claimed that there was another nuclear […]
Pluto is an icy dwarf planet in the Kuiper belt, orbiting the sun from the edge of our solar system and boasting a surface temperature of around minus 378 degrees Fahrenheit. It was observed in greater detail in a brief flyby on July 2015 by the New Horizons spacecraft – the first and, to date, only spacecraft to do so. A new study has suggested that currently frigid dwarf planet Pluto may have originally started off as a hot world. According to the report, “Evidence for a hot start and early ocean formation on Pluto”, published on 22 June in Nature […]
Economists with the New York Federal Reserve do not think bitcoin is a new kind of money. Bitcoin, the decentralized, permissionless, trustless digital value system that an anonymous programmer created over a decade ago is “just another example of fiat money,” said Michael Lee and Antoine Martin in a Thursday blog post. “Bitcoin may be money, but it is not a new type of money,” they said. Dollar bills are fiat, gigantic limestone wheels were once fiat and bitcoin is fiat as well, they said. Their argument appeared to employ a definition of fiat money as being an intrinsically worthless object […]

US President Donald Trump said the military is gearing up to distribute a coronavirus vaccine when one is ready, unleashing a torrent of takes from conspiracy-minded netizens, many sounding alarms over mandatory inoculations. American GIs are already being mobilized to parcel out a future vaccine to “most of the population,” Trump told Fox Business’ Maria Bartiromo in an interview on Thursday, giving a highly optimistic end-of-the-year time frame even as many experts suggest a remedy won’t be ready for mass distribution for another 12 to 18 months. “We’re mobilizing our military on the basis that we do have a vaccine.

French drugmaker Sanofi has walked back its promise to give US patients priority access to a potential Covid-19 vaccine. The firm’s favoritism triggered a backlash in France that drew in the country’s government. Sanofi Chief Executive Paul Hudson said on Thursday that it is vital any coronavirus vaccine be made available worldwide, and called on European Union countries to work collectively toward such a vaccine. A day earlier, Hudson had told a different story. Speaking to Bloomberg News on Wednesday, the pharma executive said that, as the US has funded his company’s vaccine research, it has “the right to the largest […]
