Biden, DOJ Worked Together to Brand Parents as Terrorists By Pamela Geller
March 23, 2023 – Something has gone terribly, horribly wrong with America. If we stand by and allow this coup to continue, there will be nothing left to fight for. You won’t like what comes after America. And there’s nowhere else to go. There’s no America to run to.
Katie Pavlich: A new report published by the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government and House Judiciary Committee shows extensive collusion between the Biden administration and the National School Board Association. The partnership came as the group drafted a letter calling on the Department of Justice to classify parents as domestic terrorists. The letter also asked Attorney General Merrick Garland to use the Patriot Act, implemented after 9/11, to go after parents expressing criticism over school lockdowns, critical race theory and inappropriate sexual content in the classroom (Townhall). Ed Morrissey: The Biden administration has largely refused to cooperate in this exercise of congressional oversight and has not produced requested documentation (HotAir).
National Crisis: CDC Says 1 in 36 Children Now Identified with Autism Spectrum Disorder By Jim Hoft
Mar. 24, 2023 7:30 am – Autism is becoming more prevalent among young children.
Earlier this year, a new study published in the journal Pediatrics analyzed data from more than 4,000 8-year-olds in New York and New Jersey and found that the prevalence of autism has tripled in the last 16 years, Forbes reported.
On Thursday, the CDC released its updated report on the expected prevalence of autism among American children.
The Autism and Developmental Disabilities Monitoring (ADDM) Network included 11 sites (Arizona, Arkansas, California, Georgia, Maryland, Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, Tennessee, Utah, and Wisconsin) that monitored Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) prevalence for 2020.
According to the study, more children of color (Black and Hispanic) than White children are being diagnosed with autism for the first time.
Prevalence via CDC:
- About 1 in 36 children has been identified with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) according to estimates from CDC’s Autism and Developmental Disabilities Monitoring (ADDM) Network. [Read article]
- ASD is reported to occur in all racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic groups. [Read article]
- ASD is more than 4 times more common among boys than among girls. [Read article]
- About 1 in 6 (17%) children aged 3–17 years were diagnosed with a developmental disability, as reported by parents, during a study period of 2009-2017. These included autism, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, blindness, and cerebral palsy, among others. [Read summary]
According to federal health officials, COVID prevented early intervention and treatment for some children.
Robert Kennedy Jr., a major figure in the vaccine resistance movement, wrote on his Twitter, “Why does CDC refuse to investigate the cause of exploding Autism epidemic far more devastating than COVID?”
