It looks like they clipped the part right before where it appears the protestor and two other guys with backpacks firebombed the mounted officers. It also seems like the fireworks that get mostly cropped out in that edit might be startling the horses. Although I'm not discounting that the third backpack guy wasn't with the other two. It isn't clear from the video but he gets pulled out from under the tree where the 30ft bolt of fire came from. https://streamable.com/e/bc1sog

By mid-2022 I could tell Hanania had exhausted his couple of interesting ideas, and it had become clear he wasn't at that 99.9th percentile of internal coherency that makes for an insightful commentator. I almost wrote a response to a comment here, saying that people were obviously overestimating Hanania's ability to invest into his own ideas. He was an r-strategist poster. And he was going to have to start wasting everybody's time to keep up with the meatgrinder of being a professional twitter wonk.

By heard the rumors you mean the information Gerard has been promoting? Yeah, the circumstantial evidence points very strongly to the fact that is who they are. I'm worried about the sudden chain of doxxes following the post SSC twitter crowd though. Our resident grumpy doctor seems to have been the latest.

In the US the secret service will always have one or two people assigned to collect and destroy all DNA left behind on napkins or glasses by the president. I'm assuming it's the same for other western heads of state.

You can look through CSL Seqirus' press releases for other info on which countries are receiving the vaccine if that information has been publicly disclosed.

The EU has already started receiving its 650,000 dose order of Audenz and has reserved 40 million more when production increases. ASPR has had a reserve of Audenz for 2 years. I don't know how many vials they've purchased. They've just reserved 40 million doses of only the adjuvant, which they think will help them update to newer strains if they need to. Nobody is vaccinating yet because they don't know if there's going to be a pandemic.
You're looking at this through a narrow partisan lens and I don't think that helps you. The NYT doesn't have to be completely aligned with the Biden administration for rokmonster's point to stand true, and certainly not for Dean's point to be true, either.
I think the general point is that the NYT holds the special privilege of receiving exclusive government leaks, and distributing them as they see fit in order to influence public opinion to the editorial desk's particular preferences. They are also a newspaper but they primarily occupy a political position much more powerful than just a newspaper.
