It wasn’t enough for The Regime to execute two farcical impeachments and sabotage his every act in open insubordination and contempt—effectively forestalling a peaceful transfer of power, and depriving Americans of a full four years from which we would have all more richly benefited. It wasn’t enough for The Regime to do everything in its power to “fortify” the 2020 election against him, just as it wouldn’t be enough for The Regime to disqualify him from the 2024 ballot—in defense of “democracy,” of course—under the fraudulent pretext of an “insurrection....

The FDA approved Phesgo four months ahead of schedule in response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, allowing patients to limit their exposure to healthcare facilities. Created by Genentech, Phesgo combines Herceptin (trastuzumab), Perjeta (pertuzumab), and hyaluronidase-zzxf into a single injection. Typically, Herceptin and Perjeta are given intravenously (IV, directly into a vein) in a clinic, infusion center, or hospital. Because Phesgo is given as an injection, it’s possible to receive at home from a healthcare professional....

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved booster doses for all adults on Friday and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is likely to follow suit. Unfortunately, it’s unlikely that the U.S. sees an increase in young adults getting their booster shot before gathering for Thanksgiving, and experts worry boosters won’t be enough to change the pandemic’s trajectory if large portions of the population remain unvaccinated. “We’re going to see a surge no matter what and I think that surge is going to be more in the unvaccinated population,” Dennis Wykoff, a professor of molecular genetics at Villanova University, said....

Treatments for CLBP include physical therapy, stretching and cortisol shots to reduce pain and inflammation. But these treatments aren’t 100% effective, and many people don’t have access to them. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently announced the approval of a new implant aimed at treating CLBP, called ReActiv8. Developed by Mainstay Medical, ReActiv8 is an implantable neurostimulation system that improves CLBP associated with multifidus muscle dysfunction. (We’ll explain what this means in just a bit....

Developed by health care manufacturing company Ellume, the newly approved diagnostic assessment is the first of its kind to receive FDA clearance. Its authorization marks an important development for coronavirus testing procedures as the country continues to grapple with increasing transmission rates, surging hospitalization numbers and record fatalities as a result of the pandemic. “Today’s authorization is a major milestone in diagnostic testing for COVID-19,” said Stephen Hahn, the FDA’s commissioner, in a statement released alongside the agency’s Tuesday announcement....

Novavax is a latecomer to the U.S. vaccine program. If the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention signs off on the vaccine, it will be the fourth COVID-19 vaccine available to people in the U.S. The Novavax vaccine uses a protein-based technology, which is more traditional than the new mRNA technology used by Pfizer and Moderna. The formula held promise early in the pandemic when early phase trials indicated its high efficacy....

But two weeks ago, frightening rumors began sweeping through Kargamtu about an imminent attack from a powerful, unnamed enemy. “People said, ‘it isn’t safe here, we must leave,’” says Roza Ma, 40, sitting on the roof of a half-finished mosque in a squalid neighborhood of Quetta, Pakistan. After village elders convened a meeting and urged Kargamtu’s inhabitants to flee, Ma and her children stuffed their bags with clothing and bread and joined 40 other families on an eight-day journey by truck, bus and on foot to Pakistan....

Anthony Robert Williams faces charges of obstruction of an official proceeding, entering and remaining in a restricted building, and disorderly conduct in a restricted building in connection with last year’s January 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol.

Murphy has sent a message to “an associate” inquiring about employment opportunities, according to a report from ABC News. When the network asked the GSA for comment, the agency said it wasn’t unusual for government employees to consider future work opportunities, adding, “The administrator remains focused on doing her job.” Democratic Virginia Representative Gerry Connolly told ABC, “Here’s somebody who refuses to sign the letter of transition but is self-dealing at the same time....

Head coach Albert Roca believes that Sanjoy Sen’s army are favourites for the victory owing to their full strength squad including the availability of all four overseas players.

The team has shown immense character to make it to this stage and we are ready to give it one final push....

Too bad world No. 1 Rory McIlroy, FedEx Cup standings leader Hunter Mahan and others weren’t able to take advantage on Friday. LEADERBOARD: Track second-round scoring, prepare for cut Palmer was out early on Saturday, dropping a stroke and finding himself tied with Billy Hurley III and Matt Kuchar at 7 under.

The session is part of the government’s push for talent, an intensifying effort to recruit a new generation of civil servants amid the biggest hiring crisis in U.S. government history. More federal employees are expected to retire in 2008 than in any previous year, and 2009 could be even worse, according to the Office of Personnel Management. By 2012, more than 50 percent of the current work force, including 90 percent of senior management and a third of all scientists and economists, will be gone—leaving a quarter million jobs in their wake....

At stake is nearly $100 million in total damages, much of which is on behalf of the U.S. Postal Service (USPS), Armstrong’s long-time sponsor. MORE: Sports’ most famous drug cheats | 2016 Tour de France photos USA Today obtained the 59-page scathing report, which calls Armstrong “a doper, dealer, and liar.” The briefing is in response to Armstrong’s attorneys last April asking to have the lawsuit dismissed. The heart of the issue is how much damage USPS suffered as a result of the global doping scandal, which Armstrong has confessed to being a central figure in while riding for the Postal Service....

All the major confirmed January deals “For a guy who has never played at the top level in central midfield, he started in a Champions League game and he did well,” said Wenger after the game. But nearly five years on it appears we are no closer to finding out Oxlade-Chamberlain’s best position at Arsenal. The 23-year-old has made more substitute appearances than starts this season, but his goal and assist tally is the best since he joined the club....

Wolf’s office said it is finalizing the plan for the strike teams, but the administration has yet to provide information regarding how many people will be in the federal teams, what expertise and equipment they will bring, and when they are expected to arrive at the state’s hospitals. “The federal government has responded to Governor Wolf’s request for additional support for Pennsylvania’s health care system, and we are now meeting with them daily to finalize support plans,” Keara Klinepeter, the state’s acting secretary of health, said in a statement published online on Tuesday....

After two decades and an investment of billions of dollars, American troops left Afghanistan and the country quickly fell to the Taliban, sparking international criticism. President Joe Biden defended his strategy, criticizing the Afghan army for failing to resist Taliban forces, a demonstration that the result would not have changed if troops remained for another year or another five years. Although Afghans are “confused and disappointed” at what transpired with the Americans’ exit, Rezaei told Newsweek Afghanistan can’t rely on habitual support from other countries....
