Developing heart inflammation and lastly over in arizona the house out there lawmakers in the house passed a new bill which would require schools across the state to teach students about the evils of communism let’s go through these stories together This is your semi-daily fax matter update and i’m your host roman from the epic times now let’s begin today’s discussion by talking about vaccines but actually as a super quick aside at the very top of the description box is a link to epic tv it’s our brand new no
Censorship video platform where you can find all of the awesome epic times video programs like the larry elder show crossroads of joshua phillip american thought leaders china in focus life and times and our show facts matter and on there you will find exclusive episodes that you will not find here on youtube
In fact we just published an exclusive episode on there earlier today so again that link will be right there at the top hope you check it out and now let’s really talk about vaccines three days ago the fda they announced that they will be adding a warning to the moderna
And pfizer coveted vaccines informing consumers that there is a risk of developing heart inflammation now this decision came after the cdc which stands for the centers for disease control after they reported that more cases of heart inflammation which includes either myocarditis or pericarditis were found among young adults as well as children
After they received the vaccines in a statement released by the fda which is right here i have it in my hands they said that they will be adding some revisions to their vaccine fact sheets about quote the increased risks of myocarditis inflammation of the heart muscle and pericarditis inflammation of
The tissue surrounding the heart following vaccination furthermore it says that there may be an increased risk particularly following the second dose and with the onset of symptoms within a few days after vaccination now it’s worth noting that this warning only applies to the moderna and pfizer vaccines which use mrna technology and
Require two doses however the johnson and johnson vaccine which uses an adenovirus and only requires one dose is not included in this new warning also the fda commissioner dr janet woodcock she released a statement arguing that the risks of developing heart inflammation are outweighed by the benefits of the vaccine here’s what she
Said as a part of her statement the risk of myocarditis and pericarditis appears to be very low given the number of vaccine doses that have been administered the benefits of covet-19 vaccination continue to outweigh the risks given the risk of covet-19 diseases and related potentially severe complications now in terms of the raw
Numbers according to the latest findings from the cdc which were released about a week ago there have been over 1200 cases of heart inflammation in individuals who are aged 30 years or younger after they receive their vaccine doses and based on the submissions to the vaccine adverse event reporting system which is operated
By both the fda and the cdc this rate of heart inflammation is higher than what was expected for young males according to that data for males between the ages of 12 and 17 the expected number of heart inflammation cases following their first vaccine dose were between 2 and 21
However the observed number of heart inflammation cases was 32 and then for males between the ages of 18 and 24 the expected number of cases were between 3 and 34. however the observed number of cases was 47. now in terms of what the symptoms are as
Well as what you should do if you’re experiencing them here’s what the fda said as a part of their statement quote vaccine recipients should seek medical attention right away if they have chest pain shortness of breath or feelings of having a fast beating fluttering or pounding hard after vaccination the fda
And cdc are monitoring the reports collecting more information and will follow up to assess longer term outcomes over several months now we here at the epic times we reached out to both pfizer and moderna for comment but we have yet to hear back if you would like to read
More about these findings if you would like to comb through the data for yourself or if you would like to read this full warning from the fda the links to all that will be in the description box below this video for you to check out and now let’s move on over and talk
About sex trafficking on facebook oh sorry hello hey roman it’s me no i’m just kidding i wanted to take a quick moment and introduce our sponsor for today’s episode which is an awesome company called amac or amac and it stands for the association of mature american citizens now i do consider
Myself a mature american citizen but i’m about 19 years too young to join amac however if you or someone in your family is 50 years old or over i would consider joining because they are essentially the conservative alternative to the aarp and they offer three main benefits to their
Members the first is the money saving benefit because they partner with a ton of retailers across the country and offer you discounts on things like vitamins insurance policies and so on the list is pretty long i’ll throw a link to it in the description box below the second is that members get a
Subscription to their magazine and even though i’m not a member i have read their magazine and it’s filled with thought-provoking articles very good i’d highly recommend it and then the third benefit which a lot of people say is their favorite is that amac fights on capitol hill against what they’re
Calling the socialist storm that’s brewing in america so again i would highly recommend you check them out it’s not too expensive it’s only 16 per year but it looks like the benefits outweigh the cost by a wide margin again you can go over to amac that us forward
Slash fax matter or just click in the link in the description box below and a mac thank you so much for sponsoring our episode now roman in the studio back to you and now let’s move on over to texas where a lot of things are happening to start with just yesterday these texas
Supreme court they ruled that facebook could in fact be held liable if their platform is used by sex traffickers to prey on children now to give you a bit of background on this case there were three different lawsuits that came out of the houston area which involved teenage victims of sex trafficking who
Allege that they met their abusers through facebook’s messaging service the prosecution in the case also argued that facebook was negligent by not doing more to black sex traffickers from using their site and after the case went through the entire state court system the texas supreme court ultimately
Agreed with the prosecution and said in part that facebook should not be some kind of lawless no man’s land here’s specifically what they said as a part of their ruling we do not understand section 230 to create a lawless no man’s land on the internet in which states are
Powerless to impose liability on websites that knowingly or intentionally participate in the evil of online human trafficking now i want to pause here for a moment they mentioned section 230 in this ruling and so for your reference facebook was actually arguing that they were protected under section 230 of the
Federal communications decency act this is the law that’s responsible for these social media companies being recognized as platforms rather than publishers and it effectively shields these social media companies from being liable for the content that people put on their platforms however critics of course have been saying for a very long time that
These social media companies are misusing this rule to get immunity from being liable for anything while at the same time acting as a publisher when they censor conservative viewpoints and then some go further and argue that if they work to censor sex trafficking content as much as they censor
Conservative content then the problem could be solved regardless let’s get back to this ruling it says holding internet platforms accountable for words or actions of their users is one thing and the federal precedent uniformly dictates that section 230 does not allow it holding internet platforms accountable for their own misdeeds is
Quite another thing this is particularly the case for human trafficking now this decision does not actually mean that facebook has been found guilty of any crimes but it does mean that these sex trafficking victims can move forward with their lawsuits against facebook which they will now do and i want to
Point out that this is a fairly significant ruling because according to this report right here which is the 2020 federal human trafficking report and it came out of an organization called the human trafficking institute and this report says in the year 2020 59 of people who were recruited into sex
Trafficking were recruited on facebook again let me just reiterate that of the active sex trafficking cases from the year 2020 this report says that 59 of the victims were recruited on facebook according to this report it says that this makes facebook quote by far the most frequently referenced website or
App in public sources connected with these prosecutions which was also true in 2019 now after the texas supreme court made the ruling a spokesman for facebook he went on to fox news and made this statement we’re reviewing the decision and considering potential next steps sex trafficking is abhorrent and
Not allowed on facebook we will continue our fight against the spread of this content and the predators who engage in it now we here at the epic times we also reached out to facebook with some more questions but we have yet to hear back however while we’re talking about texas
As well as about the topic of sex crimes generally i’d like to discuss another topic based on this report which was just released according to this data set which was released by the us customs and border protection agency the number of sex offenders who have been arrested at
The southern border trying to cross illegally has increased by 542 and worse yet a large number of these people who have been detained had prior convictions for crimes involving a minor now in terms of the raw numbers in 2019 58 criminal sex offenders were apprehended at the southern border in
2020 it was 156 and in 2021 which is only halfway through border agents have already arrested 353 illegal aliens with sex-related criminal convictions now it’s really worth pointing out that these numbers are for the people who have actually been apprehended in fact according to the new director of border patrol mr raoul ortiz
He said that just this year alone they have detected more than 250 000 illegal aliens who were able to evade capture they were detected but they were able to escape and it’s also very difficult to calculate how many people evaded border patrol without getting detected and so
Again this 542 increase in the number of sex offenders who have been apprehended are only those who have been detected and captured now in terms of what happens to them once they have actually been apprehended here’s what mr ortiz said there isn’t a day that goes by that i
Don’t read a paper or a report from my agents that talk about criminal aliens sexual offenders that they’ve apprehended out there those folks aren’t getting released in these communities guess what happens to them they go to jail when they get out of jail they go back to their country of origin now i
Would like to take a moment and focus on the del rio sector of the border because at the moment we have one of our reporters there right now not too long ago del rio was relatively quiet in terms of illegal border crossings however recently it has become the
Second busiest in all of texas trailing only behind the rio grande valley here’s what the chief of the del rio sector mr austin scarole here’s what he said a few days ago we’ve seen a tremendous increase so far this year this fiscal year today we’ve caught 144 000 people in the del rio
Sector we’ve gone through this before we’ve seen these increases these surges for the last 30 to 40 years it’s never been this bad i’ll tell you that straight up i’ve never seen it this bad he then went on to say that in his sector there has been a 1400 increase in
The number of sex offenders arrested by border patrol agents in his sector it’s a 1400 increase and of course these are just statistics but they have real world effects for instance a texas resident who lives down there near the u.s southern border he said during a public
Hearing that prior to january prior to january of this year he had seen only two illegal aliens passed through his backyard however he said that now he’s seeing hundreds of them daily here’s specifically what he said i have four daughters does it concern me when you say there’s a 1400 increase in sex
Offenders yes it concerns me i’m concerned about the single men who are running through my backyard sneaking and i’m about a fifty percent success rate on whether or not i get an agent to come out to my place when i call and when they do it’s awesome they bring
Helicopters they bring support otherwise i’m sitting there unarmed and there’s a guy soaking wet in my backyard screaming at me in spanish i don’t know what to do with this guy he then went on to ask border patrol if they can provide some kind of a training for people in texas
Who live near the border and who have to deal with these types of situations and in response the border patrol sector chief he said that they should not be engaging with these illegal aliens that they should instead call border patrol and then he said this we’re going to
Come just as soon as we can sometimes it will be immediate sometimes it might take us an hour now the state of texas has actually increased their response to this growing surge in illegal crossings for instance starting in march of this year greg abbott who is the governor of
Texas he said that he was no longer going to be waiting for the federal government to give assistance and he began to send extra law enforcement resources down to the border additionally state troopers they’ve been involved in 340 vehicle pursuits along the u.s southern border as well as 630
Vehicle bailouts and a vehicle bailout is when a vehicle is pulled over by law enforcement and the illegal immigrants who are inside they scatter and flee to avoid being captured furthermore three weeks ago governor abbott he issued a state of disaster declaration and he said this we’re going to start making
Arrests sending a message to anyone thinking about coming here you’re not getting a free pass you’re getting a straight pass to a jail cell and along that line last week a prison unit over in dilly which is a city in texas it began to be emptied out in order to make
Room for illegal alien criminals however it’s worth noting that while texas can arrest illegal aliens they can’t actually deport them because that is a federal issue and so we’ll just have to wait and see how effective their new approach will be now if you have a twitter account i
Would highly highly recommend that you follow charlotte she’s our on-the-ground reporter who’s down in texas right now and she often gets interviews with local ranchers as well as going on ride-alongs with sheriffs and she gets a lot of great first-hand footage you can follow her over on twitter i’ll throw a link to
Her twitter account in the description box below in order to get access to that awesome footage also if you’d like to go deeper with any of the stories that we discussed thus far such as the texas supreme court decision about facebook or about the dramatic increase in illegal
Aliens especially those who are sex offenders all those links will be down in the description box for you to check out and also by the way that is that same little description box that is right below that like button that i hope you take a moment to smash because it
Goes without saying that videos that are like this talking honestly about what is happening in this country and in this world right now are routinely censored or throttled by big tech giants like youtube however when you smash that like button you are forcing the youtube algorithm to share this video out to
Potentially thousands of more people letting the truth be known far and wide also by the way if you don’t subscribe to this channel already i would highly recommend subscribing that way you can get these type of honest news content delivered directly to your youtube feed whenever we release them and now let’s
Talk a little bit about the evils of communism three days ago the arizona state house approved a bill which would mandate that school teachers across the entire state must share stories with their students from people who have fled communism this bill which is officially known as house bill 2898 says among
Several other things the public schools will be required to teach quote a comparative discussion of political ideologies such as communism and totalitarianism the conflict with the principles of freedom and democracy essential to the founding principles of the united states furthermore this new bill would actually require that arizona’s department of education it
Must develop new standards for civic education for students which includes teaching them about the original intent of america’s founding documents the principles of the united states as well as the expectation that american citizens will be responsible for preserving and defending and here’s what it says quote the blessings of liberty
Inherited from prior generations and secured by the united states constitution and then furthermore as we mentioned in the beginning this bill would also require that schools share stories from people who have fled from communist countries specifically this bill says that the board of education will have to develop a list of oral
History resources that provides patriotism based on first-person accounts of victims of other nations governing philosophies who can compare those philosophies with those of the united states now in regards to why this bill is necessary arizona state representative jake hoffman he’s a republican he said this the reality is
That one of the greatest threats facing the globe today is communism and totalitarianism we have governments like the communist chinese government that their stated goal is to be the world’s sole and only superpower and that they will achieve that goal through any means possible this bill is now on its way to
The arizona senate where it will be debated and voted upon now what’s interesting to note is that this bill actually passed the arizona house just a few days after florida’s governor ron desantis signed an executive order on education which among several other things also requires that students in
Florida be taught about the evils of communism in explaining why it’s so important to teach students about communism here’s what ron desantis had to say we want all students to understand the difference why would somebody flee across shark infested waters why would people leave these countries and risk their lives to be
Able to come here it’s important that students understand that now these actions in florida and arizona come at a time when the young people in america have more and more begun to accept both socialism and communism as a viable alternative to our own constitutional republic in fact there was a recent poll
Conducted by yougov which show that 44 of young americans who are millennials would prefer to live in a socialist society in that same poll it found that an additional seven percent of respondents said that they would prefer to live in a communist society and when you combine those together it means that
51 of millennials say that they would prefer to live under either socialism or communism now from my own experience so take it for what it’s worth this is due in large part to the fact that young people are not taught about either the history or the atrocities of communism
And so what i’ve seen is that a lot of young people they assume that guys like lenin and stalin that they campaigned on a platform of famines purges and gulags in order to get into power but the reality and this is what’s not taught is that those communist dictators they
Actually campaign on a platform of equality of equality and redistribution of wealth but people just don’t know that and furthermore due to a lack of understanding of communism as well as the failure of america’s media to expose it accurately people really don’t understand what is happening in china
Right now under the chinese communist party and therefore you sometimes get some unbelievable statements like what the ceo of nike said just a few days ago if you haven’t heard this is what he said nike is a brand that is of china and for china now
That is quite a statement now on the one hand you can understand where he’s coming from i mean china has a huge population they have a population of 1.4 billion people and each of those people have on average two feet so that’s a lot of sneakers that he can sell to them and
Of course there’s also cheap labor in china however china is not a normal country china is ruled by the chinese communist party which is a totalitarian dictatorship which engages in some of the worst human rights abuses of this century the state department even officially recognizes that there are that they are
Engaging in a genocide over in the xinjiang region but while some people see genocide and concentration camps others see cheap labor and vocational facilities here’s what senator marco rubio had to say on this matter for far too long companies like nike and apple and amazon and coca-cola were using
Forced labor they were benefiting from forced labor or sourcing from suppliers that were suspected of using forced labor these companies sadly were making all of us complicit in these crimes and so perhaps as more students are taught about the evils of communism both historically and at present maybe there
Will be more of a pushback against the communist dictatorship which currently rules the most populous nation on earth now if you’d like to read more about what’s happening over in china or about this new anti-communist education over in arizona and florida those links will be down in the description box for you
