A trio of former Delta Force commandos joined me for an exclusive interview.

So, grab a beer, get your popcorn and fire it up below. Trust me when I say this will be the coolest interview you see all year. It’s truly incredible just how badass these dudes are.

Former Delta Force Operator Nate Dudley Talks About Shooting A Suicide Bomber In Iraq
Judgement calls aren’t easy in war, and one story about a suicide bomber in Iraq tells you everything you need to know. I sat down with former Delta Force operators Nate Dudley , Bob Keller and Brian Gilligan for an interview on a variety of subjects, and during our talk, we touched on how hard it can be to identify the good guys from the bad guys. Dudley shared a story about shooting a suicide bomber simply based on a noticing a bulge under his clothes that resembled a bomb. “He popped back out and I shot him because I was positive he had a bomb on him…It ended up he did. So, it’s the right call,” the former Delta Force commando told me during our exclusive interview. You can watch his full comments in the video below.

As COVID mutations continue, CCMB chief sounds caution
Double-dose vaccination, booster shot, and exposure to previous COVID-19 infection have so far made the Omicron cases less severe in terms of low hospitalisation rates and deaths, says CSIR-Centre for Cellular & Molecular Biology director Vinay Nandicoori. This is in contrast to the Delta wave in the summer of 2021 when vaccination rate was just 2%, and the high viral load led to unprecedented hospitalisation figures and fatalities, overwhelming the healthcare systems. “We are in a much better place when compared to a year ago, but let there be no doubt that if Omicron was the first variant, it could have caused as much havoc as seen in Hong Kong among the unvaccinated and those with comorbidities,” he points out, in an exclusive interaction. “We have to remind ourselves that the Omicron variant is still a potent virus, has scope to improve, and if it gets a combination of the right conditions, things could get worse for persons getting infected. But, the hope is that with … [Read more...] about As COVID mutations continue, CCMB chief sounds caution

For LIC, the first-year premium rose 141.3% at ₹11,716.70 crore (₹4,856.76 crore), a development that is bound to bring cheer for the behemoth ahead of the listing of its shares. Private life insurers logged a 27.5% growth in total first-year premium (FYP) to ₹6,222.92 crore, the new business statement for the 24 insurers issued by IRDAI showed. Of the 22 operational private firms, six reported a decline in the FYP. Emkay Global said in a research report that a three-year compound annual growth rate would present a true picture of expansion, considering a stringent nationwide lockdown in April 2020 and the impact of the COVID-19 Delta wave in April last year.

Jake Tapper Grills Bumbling Mississippi Guv on ‘Heartbreaking’ COVID Death Spiral
CNN anchor Jake Tapper repeatedly confronted Republican Gov. Tate Reeves on Sunday over his opposition to President Joe Biden’s vaccine policy despite Mississippi’s “heartbreaking” coronavirus death rate, flatly stating that Reeves’ “way is failing.” Defending the administration’s vaccine mandates last week amid Republican promises to fight the new rules, Biden singled out Reeves , who had blasted the requirements as “tyrannical” and unconstitutional. “In Mississippi, children are required to be vaccinated against measles, mumps, rubella, chickenpox, hepatitis B, polio, tetanus, and more,” the president noted on Thursday. “These are state requirements. But in the midst of a pandemic that has already taken over 660,000 lives, I propose a requirement for COVID vaccines and the governor of that state calls it ‘a tyrannical-type move’? A tyrannical-type move?!” Interviewing Reeves on CNN’s State of the Union on Sunday, Tapper brought up Biden’s remarks, wondering aloud why … [Read more...] about Jake Tapper Grills Bumbling Mississippi Guv on ‘Heartbreaking’ COVID Death Spiral
