I find the biggest shift of thought in my 80 years of life is censorship. I want to share with you my personal experiences. [SNIP] Then the media tornado hit. Media Matters, a George Soros funded leftist group, had a meeting in Florida. The SPLC was the centerpiece presenter said that people such as me should be driven out of business.

Background to the new Nuremberg Trials 2021 : A large team of more than 1,000 lawyers and over 10,000 medical experts, led by Dr. Reiner Fuellmich, has initiated legal proceedings against the CDC, WHO and the Davos Group for crimes against humanity.
Fuellmich and his team present the incorrect PCR test and the order for doctors to describe any comorbidity death as a Covid death – as fraud. The PCR test was never designed to detect pathogens and is 100% inaccurate at 35 cycles. All PCR tests monitored by the CDC are set at 37 to 45 cycles. The CDC acknowledges that tests over 28
U.S. Customs and Border Protection confiscated more fentanyl in the first half of 2021 than in the last three years. CBP seized 6,494 pounds of the drug between October 2020 and April 2021, according to recently released data. Nearly 2,000 more pounds of fentanyl have been seized by CBP officials compared to last year amid the southern border surge. CBP seized 4,776 pounds in 2020 and 2,801 pounds in 2019.Texas Governor Greg Abbott told reporters Friday that the Texas Department of Public Safety has seen an 800 percent increase from April 2020 to April 2021 of the amount of fentanyl that has been apprehended.

Republican Wisconsin Rep. Bryan Steil sent a letter Wednesday to President Joe Biden calling for answers over the timing of the federal government’s latest mask guidance, which allows vaccinated individuals not to wear masks in most settings.In the letter first obtained by the Daily Caller, Steil asked Biden about the May 13 decision from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to reduce mask restrictions for fully vaccinated people and why Biden did not make the recommendation during his May 4 announcement at the White House.“As you may recall, on May 4 2021, you made an announcement indicating the country would move toward normality on July 4 2021,
A Wednesday morning police chase in Florida’s Broward County ended with five juveniles in custody and several others injured, according to authorities and shocking video.
Police were called shortly before 7 a.m. Wednesday for a report of a Fort Lauderdale home being burglarized while people were inside. According to the caller, the suspects were trying to steal a car from the garage of the home, police said.
They got away, but not before police were provided with a description of their vehicle. When cops caught up to the getaway car and tried to pull it over, the suspects refused and a police chase ensued, authorities said.
Several counties in Oregon on May 18 voted to consider joining the state of Idaho, which is part of a long-shot movement to break away from the state that has long been dominated by politicians in Portland.
Voters in Malheur, Sherman, Grant, Baker, and Lake counties approved various measures that require county officials to take steps to look into moving the Idaho border west to incorporate the counties.
The grassroots group Move Oregon’s Border for a Greater Idaho is aiming to have the eastern counties—which are mostly rural—join Idaho because they believe they would be better off with Idaho’s more conservative political leadership.
When the horse is dead, you should probably stop beating it.
Jan 6 has been dead for a while. It paid off for a few months, but as we head toward June, House Democrats and their media still keep talking about some sort of bipartisan commission to investigate the Capitol Riot.
If the Democrats want an investigation so badly, then they can include the May 31 protest.
Or is an attack on the White House by Black Lives Matter somehow not serious enough to merit an investigation?
Displays and a structure at George Floyd Square in south Minneapolis were vandalized late at night over the weekend by a man with an ax in an act captured on video.

Vice President Kamala Harris keeps assets in a tax-advantaged family trust, a move that appears to violate an ethics pledge she and President Biden made on the campaign trail. The trust's assets "are not reportable," according to the filing, effectively obscuring some of the vice president's holdings from public view. [snip] Biden and Harris pledged to work with Congress to "eliminate the trust loophole in existing financial disclosure law," and Biden said he would "require that any member of his Administration who is a beneficiary of a discretionary trust disclose all of its holdings."
Harrisburg, PA – The Pennsylvania state troopers’ union has demanded an apology from Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf for perpetuating the false narrative that law enforcement officers are racist murderers.
Wolf included his anti-police views in a letter he issued to all state employees regarding the Juneteenth state holiday on June 19, WHTM reported. The governor told state workers they would be getting the day off on June 18 in observance of the Juneteenth holiday, which falls on a Saturday this year, WHTM reported.

Reporters out of Chicago are alleging that Democratic Mayor Lori Lightfoot is now granting interviews only to journalists of color.
NBC 5 Chicago political reporter Mary Ann Ahern took to Twitter on Tuesday to mark the "midway point" of Lightfoot's first term in office and apparently acknowledged her failed effort to land an interview.
"As @chicagosmayor reaches her two year midway point as mayor, her spokeswoman says Lightfoot is granting 1 on 1 interviews - only to Black or Brown journalists," Ahern tweeted.
In a House hearing on Wednesday on Examining Emergent BioSolutions' Failure to Protect Public Health and Public Funds, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) called for a full investigation into the origins of COVID-19, which emerged from Wuhan, China, early in 2020 and spread across the world at breakneck speed.
"Where did this thing start?" Jordan asked a question that Americans have been now asking for well over a year. "Did it jump from an animal to humans? Or was it a leak from from a lab? A lab in Wuhan, China? The American people would probably like to know. After all, they've had their liberties assaulted for the past year."
The last few weeks have not been a happy time for the royalty which once ruled the Republican Party.
Liz Cheney lost her leadership role in the House Republican Conference. Mitt Romney was not met with overwhelming acclaim at the Utah Republican Convention. And former President George W. Bush did an interview which again demonstrated his irrelevance to both his party and the country.

Former President Donald Trump blasted New York Attorney General Letitia James and Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr. for their joint criminal investigation into his organization, saying they are continuing the “Witch Hunt” and trying to “cancel millions of voters” because they don’t want him to mount another presidential campaign in 2024.“That is what these investigations are all about — a continuation of the greatest political Witch Hunt in the history of the United States.

The charge of apartheid is the new blood libel.
As Hamas rains rocket down on Israeli civilians, members of the Squad in the US Congress and other left-wing enemies of the Jewish state are using the occasion to amplify their accusation that Israel is an “apartheid state.”

President Joe Biden is calling on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to "de-escalate" with Hamas terrorists in Gaza as the Iranian backed organization continues its attacks on innocent civilians.
As president, Joe Biden has made sure to elevate Vice President Kamala Harris, including her in nearly every aspect of his presidency and making her the point person on migration, a top issue. First lady Jill Biden and second gentleman Doug Emhoff have hit it off. At least so far, there’s been little of the drama or staff fighting that have marked many relationships between president and vice president—including between Barack Obama and Biden in their first year in office together.
President Joe Biden mirrored former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush's awkward "please clap" moment as his addressed the U.S. Coast Guard Academy’s graduating class of 2021.
"You are a really dull class. Come on, man. Is the sun getting to you?" Biden said Wednesday in Connecticut after comparing the Coast Guard with the Navy. "All kidding aside, being here together is a victory in itself." [Tweet]
During his 25 minute-plus speech, Biden also admitted he needed "absolution" after his college years at the University of Delaware for "minor infractions like using a fire extinguisher to hose down an RA," referring to the abbreviation for residential adviser.
While the White House is still debating how to deal with the disappointing April jobs report and downplaying its implications for President Joe Biden’s expensive and expansive agenda, an increasing number of red states are taking matters into their own hands. Amid reports of a growing number of “Help Wanted” signs and would-be workers opting to keep receiving unemployment assistance rather than returning to work, 18 Republican-led states have ended or are moving to halt enhanced unemployment benefits.
For those wondering how these Republican-led initiatives are likely to play out, including those shrieking that this is “ill-informed and cruel,” there’s a recent example that should shed some light.
KEY POINTS
President Biden told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday he expects “a significant de-escalation today on the path to a cease-fire.”
It was their fourth conversation since the violence erupted between Israel and Hamas nine days earlier, the worst fighting between the two sides since 2014.WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in a phone call Wednesday that he expects “a significant de-escalation today on the path to a ceasefire,” the White House said.
It was their fourth conversation since the violence erupted between Israel and Hamas nine days earlier.
By a vote of 217-209, the House rejected a bid to bring a bill to the floor that would have applied sanctions against the terror group Hamas. The sanctions targeted foreign individuals and governments that assist Hamas or the Palestinian Islamic Jihad. Both organizations are terror groups so designated by the State Department.
The bill had been introduced by Rep. Brian Mast (R-Fla.) and would have reauthorized the Palestinian International Terrorism Support Prevention Act. The act passed the House last session but failed to make it to the Senate floor.
“Under my bill, the United States will sanction these groups that are supporting terrorism,”
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen just made a punk out of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg. Yellen lobbied the business community Tuesday to help foot the bill for President Joe Biden’s more than $4 trillion American Jobs Plan and American Families Plan, which include every wish list item proposed by the Democratic Party going back nearly 50 years. This is an interesting development, considering Buttigieg claimed last week the White House's “infrastructure” proposal “is paid for." CORRECTON*
The more we learn about the true dimensions of the crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border, the worse it is. Now, a new report says that in the last few months, U.S. authorities have encountered illegal border crossers not just from Mexico, or the Northern Triangle countries of Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras, but from 160 nations around the globe. People are coming to Mexico from the most distant spots on the planet in order to cross illegally into the United States, confident that President Joe Biden will let them stay. And Biden is doing just that.

It’s the trollish MAGA slice of the caucus that’s championing this, but for once they have Pelosi at a disadvantage. Why, precisely, are House members still being asked to mask up on the floor? The CDC’s new guidance says that vaccinated people no longer need to wear masks, even indoors. According to CNN, every last Democrat in the House and Senate has been vaxxed. If everyone in the chamber unmasks, the only people who are at risk are unvaccinated Republicans.
There is bad news and good news coming out of the Cornell University Faculty Senate vote on Critical Race Theory mandates for faculty and students.First, the bad news. The Faculty Senate nominally voted for some forms of Critical Race Theory mandates on faculty and students. Second, the good news.

If you saved your money and bought a house in the suburbs, your investment and lifestyle are under attack. President Joe Biden is pushing to end single-family zoning. The biggest item in Biden's infrastructure bill, now being negotiated with Congress, is $213 billion he claims will to increase affordable housing. Biden wants to put the federal government in charge of zoning and distribute apartment buildings throughout single-family home neighborhoods.
That $213 billion is nearly twice the spending on roads and bridges. It will change towns everywhere and torpedo the American dream of a house with a patch of lawn.
Biden's plan should be called "hypocrisy housing." Its backers are hypocrites.
The operator of the Colonial Pipeline learned it was in trouble at daybreak on May 7, when an employee found a ransom note from hackers on a control-room computer. By that night, the company’s chief executive came to a difficult conclusion: He had to pay.

Mr. Blount acknowledged publicly for the first time that the company had paid the ransom

Kamala Harris can't keep staff

Steven Hayward at Power Line has a prescient observation about the unflattering expose of Kamala Harris that ran in The Atlantic two days ago:
...perhaps the most revealing tidbit in the whole article, though it may not be evident to the casual reader:
Harris has been an elected official for 18 years straight, but she has only a few senior aides on staff who have worked for her for more than a few months. Turf battles have been a recurring feature of Harris offices over the years, but her newest circle believes it is finally getting her on track after years of past staffers not serving her well.
America has a record 8.1 million job openings.
The media call it a “labor shortage.”
But it’s not a labor shortage; it’s an incentive shortage.
“No one wants to work,” says a sign on a restaurant drive-thru speaker in Albuquerque, New Mexico. “Please be patient with the staff that did show up.”
I never wanted to work. I got a job because I had to support myself. That was good for me. It forced me out of my comfort zone. It made me a better person.
Had government offered me almost equal money not to work, I never would have applied.
Today, government takes away that incentive.
The Biden Administration sent out stimulus checks of $1400 to Japanese citizens who have dual citizenships, green cards and many who are now living in Japan.

Six months after the 2020 Election, the legally required chain of custody documentation for over 18,000 ballots is still missing in Fulton County (Atlanta) Georgia. The related ballots are effectively illegitimate without the legally required documentation.
We’ve reported for months that the chain of custody documentation in the state of Georgia for absentee ballots is missing for hundreds of thousands of ballots (most likely all for Biden). Biden was awarded the state of Georgia by the likes of Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger and his sidekick, Gabe Sterling, with a winning margin of roughly 10,000 ballots. They certified the state’s results with this legally required documentation missing.
The United States Army’s Assistant Secretary for Installations, Energy and Environment released a memo on May 14 that identifies climate change as a “serious threat to U.S. national security interests and defense objectives.” According to the memo, the president and secretary of defense have directed the Army to prioritize “climate change considerations in its threat picture, strategic plans, operations, and installations.” In January, Defense News reported that Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin wants the Department of Defense (DOD) to “change its carbon footprint.” In April, Secretary Austin called climate change “an existential threat.”

Joe Biden's been "wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades," as Bob Gates wrote in his memoir, so here we go again.

The Biden administration will waive sanctions on the corporate entity and CEO overseeing the construction of Russia's Nord Stream 2 pipeline into Germany, according to two sources briefed on the decision.
Both experience and medical consensus attest that young people are least at risk from COVID-19 and more likely to suffer or die from pool drowning or car and bicycle accidents.

WASHINGTON -- U.S. home construction fell a surprisingly sharp 9.5% in April and economists attributed that partially to builders who delayed projects because of a surge in lumber prices and other supply constraints. The April decline left construction at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.57 million units, the Commerce Department said Tuesday. That was down from a rate of 1.73 million units in March, which had been the best showing since homes were constructed at a rate of 1.74 million units in July 2006 at the peak of that decade's housing boom. Applications for building permits, considered a sign of

Fauci recently told Americans they could ditch facial coverings after getting vaccinated against COVID-19 and has been vaccinated since January.
However, the NIAID director has been caught rocking a face mask outside the past two days, even though he told vaccinated people himself that they no longer need to wear masks outside.

Why Biden Wants a War in Israel
replies
Terrorists have only one thing to offer. It’s right there in the name.
The business model of terrorism is killing people and then demanding a payoff. The game always works the same way. The terrorists attack, their targets fight back, and a third party sends in the diplomats to negotiate on behalf of the terrorists before they get hit too hard.
The Islamic terrorist war against Israel has worked exactly this way for generations.

President Trump urged Congressional Republicans late Tuesday to vote against legislation that would create a 9/11-style commission to investigate the deadly riot at the U.S. Capitol Jan. 6, calling it “more partisan unfairness” by Democrats.“[U]nless the murders, riots, and fire bombings in Portland, Minneapolis, Seattle, Chicago, and New York are also going to be studied, this discussion should be ended immediately,” Trump said in a statement. “Republicans must get much tougher and much smarter, and stop being used by the Radical Left.“Hopefully, [Senate Minority Leader] Mitch McConnell and [House Minority Leader] Kevin McCarthy are listening!”

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) will not support the current legislation to form the January 6 commission, according to two sources who told Axios.
According to Axios, the two sources were a part of the Republicans’ closed-door caucus lunch Tuesday where the minority leader told his Senate colleagues.
McConnell, according to Axios’s sources, said something like: “There’s 41 of us who could change this, and I think we should.”

Fifty years ago, the U.S. Supreme Court heard the first arguments in Roe v. Wade, a case that not only would transform constitutional law but political divisions in the United States. Since then, pro-life advocates have launched continuing challenges to try to dislodge the decision. Over the years, pro-choice groups at times exaggerated the risk of a serious threat to Roe and its progeny. Now, however, reality has caught up to the hyperbole. The court just accepted review in a Mississippi case that could deliver a crippling, or even lethal, blow to Roe. But President Biden has a familiar back-up plan.
