Is the government secretly stealing and storing the DNA of newborn babies?
By Leo Hohmann – November 6, 2023
We know it’s been happening in at least one state and several other states have been caught trying, so this may be more widespread than we thought.
There’s something sinister about that little “heel-prick” test that hospitals routinely do on newborns. They say it’s to detect disease but, if that’s the case, why do some states try to keep the DNA samples taken during these procedures and store them for decades without ever telling the parents?

You can’t help but wonder these days. I still want to know why they put that stuff in the newborn’s eyes. I know it is supposed to be to keep them from going blind if their mother has syphilis, but why can’t they just test the mother during birth and find out?

Anybody think that politician’s have reached the end of stupidity? Well, they haven’t in case you thought otherwise. Somewhere in San Diego, CA politicians have now decided that your electric bill is going to be based off of your income. This will work well until they figure out that really, really, really rich people don’t get a paycheck and based on this new system might only have to pay $34/month for their light bill. The kicker is that there’s no restriction on usage either, so keep the lights on, set the AC at 60 and be glorious…………until the next blackout happens. Maroons……….all of ’em.

Big day in the HOU. We might find out if the Queen of the Triple Crown Weave will get to lead the city off the cliff today. She could end up in a runoff with a longtime D state senator, who at least sounds somewhat sane (he’s not), but would be 1000X better than her. And our AG’s private attorney, who won his impeachment case is running for HOU city council. That will be well worth the price of admission to a council meeting if he were to win a spot.

Afternoon All. 42* and rainy here this morning. It was a little misty when we took our walk, but actually very pleasant. I woke up with sore sinuses this morning. I don’t know if I am actually sick or it is just allergies, etc. I am going to play possum today, anyway, just in case.
Hope you all stay well and have a nice day.
