New details have been revealed for foreign visitors to the United States. Beginning Nov. 8, foreign nationals must be fully vaccinated and provide proof of vaccination before they can board a flight to the United States. There are limited exceptions for children under 18 and certain individuals from countries where vaccines are not yet readily accessible. But they still have to show a negative virus test.

Dr. Anthony Fauci is feeling the heat. Twenty-four bipartisan lawmakers are demanding answers over reports that Fauci’s institute used taxpayer dollars to fund “cruel” and “unnecessary” experiments on dogs.  The experiment involved injecting and force-feeding 44 beagle puppies between 6 and 8 months old with an experimental drug for several weeks, before killing and dissecting them. A nonprofit government watchdog known as the White Coat Waste Project obtained the documents via a Freedom of Information Act request. The group also found that more than $400,000 in taxpayer money was spent on experiments during which beagles were infected with parasites via biting flies.

Indiana officials are welcoming Chicago police officers who oppose their city mandate to relocate. Sen. Mike Braun (R-Ind.) wrote in a tweet, “Those who dedicated their lives to serving and protecting our nation’s citizens deserve the utmost respect. Come work in Indiana!” This comes as the Arkansas governor says the vaccine mandates are increasing resistance to getting the vaccine. He said, “The resistance is hard in some areas. And part of it is simply because of the controversy because of the mandates. It deepens the resistance. And so, that’s something we have to overcome.”
