COVID-19 Death Coding, Pre-existing Condition Statistics
Dr. Birx admits that the current protocol in the United States is to record any death of an individual with a COVID-19 infection as a COVID-19 death, regardless of pre-existing conditions. The hosts argue this practice skews data by including deaths caused by heart or kidney issues. They cite reports from hospital specialists claiming that coding practices are intentionally inflating the mortality rate.
Jersey City Shooting, Black Hebrew Israelite Connection
A targeted attack on a Jewish bakery in Jersey City left multiple people dead, with investigators finding a note containing anti-Semitic and anti-police sentiments. One suspect, David Anderson, was linked to the Black Hebrew Israelite movement, the same group involved in the 2019 Covington High School incident. The hosts argue the media is downplaying the story because the perpetrators do not fit the "white nationalist" narrative.

While some reports suggest the FBI closed the file due to a lack of evidence, others indicate Rahami's travel to Pakistan and his subsequent marriage were significant red flags that were overlooked.
