Japan's Olympic organizers lied
about its weather, and now athletes
are paying the price
Posted By: earlybird, 7/27/2021 9:48:08 AM
TOKYO — The finish line of the men’s triathlon Monday morning looked something like a battlefield scene, bodies sprawled out on ground, trainers coming to the aid of overheated athletes, even a few being helped off with their arms draped over shoulders. This despite the Olympics moving the start time to 6:30 a.m. in an effort to beat the heat that, as these Tokyo Games have proven, remains undefeated. Temps still reached 85 degrees with a relative humidity of 67.1 percent at start time. (Snip) they do owe everyone an apology for this much: They lied like hell about it.

and Middle Finger Salutes Arriving in
Pennsylvania, VIDEO 11 replies
The people of Pennsylvania showed up to greet the installed occupant of the White House, Joe Biden, upon his arrival in Pennsylvania – which he calls his home state. The illegitimate office holder was scheduled to speak at Mack Truck Plant in Macungie, Pennsylvania.
Unfortunately for those who are attempting to manage the White House, the jeers, boos and middle finger salutes from the crowd was not exactly what they were looking for. WATCH:

$3 Million a Day to Suspend
Border Wall Construction: Senate
Report 8 replies
President Joe Biden’s attempts to suspend or end border wall construction are costing taxpayers $3 million per day, with an estimated price tag of at least $1.8 billion, according to a new report by Senate Republicans.
On the day he was sworn in, Biden ordered his administration to pause construction and called for a review of projects and funds. While the halt was supposed to be for 60 days, more than 180 days later, no indication has been given on the results of the review and whether construction will resume.
As the pause continues, Republicans discovered that the suspension initially cost $6 million per day, an amount that was later reduced
A Foretaste of Fascism

How can we make sense of the Biden administration’s project to establish a shadow state in which the federal government achieves its unconstitutional objectives—mask mandates, forced vaccines, suppression of religious freedom, and free speech—by recruiting private corporations to do its bidding? What is the official name for this public-private partnership in opposition to our liberties?
Before I answer this question, let’s zoom in on precisely what the administration seeks to do. It recognizes, of course, that any attempt to impose a nationwide mask mandate or to force Americans to take the vaccine would run into serious constitutional problems. Where does the Constitution give the federal government the power to require such
The federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) said Monday that it has arrested more than 300 illegal immigrant sex offenders since last month as part of an ongoing operation.
Agents arrested 302 sex offenders since June 4 as part of the agency’s Operation SOAR (Sex Offender Arrest and Removal), according to the agency.
(Snip)Johnson said that ICE focused its resources “on those who have committed sex crimes and demonstrated predatory behavior” and reinforces “our steadfast commitment to enhancing public safety across the United States.”
Elites use racial agitation to prevent populist unification between left and right, Thaddeus McCotter, author and former Republican House representative from Michigan, said on Monday’s edition of SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Daily with host Alex Marlow.
“They’re trying to keep the populists of both left and right apart with cultural issues, and they’re doing it to insulate themselves from any combination or constituency that can come after their power, perks and wealth,” (snip) It’s very difficult for people who are told that, ‘You are a racist,’ or that, ‘This person is a racist who’s trying to destroy you (snip)‘We’re not the problem for each other.

Stonewalling investigations into the origins of COVID-19 in Wuhan? A hundred new hardened intercontinental nuclear missiles silos? (Snip)
Recently China has sought to ramp up its now accustomed bullying and intimidation of the Western world, still reeling from a Chinese-born coronavirus.
Yet its new global badgering is as much predicated on its potential as it is on its actual power, at least in classical terms of a global hegemon. (Snip) the real stuff of an ascendant civilization remains constitutional stability, fuel, food, economic strength, defense, strategic security, and education. In all those areas, is China really on course to overtake us?

The U.S. federal government should have stopped funding research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in 2015 when China reduced its cooperation with the French in building and operating the lab, according to the leader of an investigation into COVID-19’s origins by the State Department under the Trump administration.
In 2015, French intelligence officials warned the U.S. State Department and their own foreign ministry that China was cutting back on agreed collaboration at the lab, former State official David Asher, (snip) told the Daily Caller (snip)
By 2017, the French “were kicked out” of the lab and cooperation ceased, leading French officials to warn the State Department that they had grave concerns
The combined state and federal capital gains tax rate in California would rise from the current 37.1 percent to 56.7 percent under President Biden’s American Families Plan, according to a new study from the Tax Foundation.
That increase, which would include federal, state and local taxes on financial gains from the sale of assets in California, represented the highest levy among the 50 states,(snip)
Nationwide, the combined average capital gains tax rate would amount to an estimated 48.4 percent under the president’s proposal, with the top federal tax rate increasing to 43.4 percent, (Snip) That compares to the current combined average rate of about 29 percent, the study said.
Do Whites Have Civil Rights?

A few days ago I typed into Google (with quotes around my question to require an exact match):
“Do whites have civil rights?”
To my surprise, Google asserted in response that nobody had ever asked that precise question before in the history of the internet.
Today, Google lists my blog post asking that question, but only after announcing:

National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director Anthony Fauci said federal health officials are considering recommending that fully vaccinated people wear masks in public again.
“This is under active consideration,” Fauci told CNN in response to a question about whether masks should be used again despite individuals’ COVID-19 vaccination status. Fauci, who serves as President Joe Biden’s chief medical adviser, added, “If we don’t vaccinate people, the model is going to predict that we’re going to be in trouble as we continue to get more and more cases.”
The Coming "January 6" Train Wreck

The January 6 Capitol clash may be the gift that keeps on giving to cynics everywhere. In the coming months, Americans will likely see jaw-dropping bureaucratic debacles, stunning abuses by federal prosecutors, and appalling bloodlust by angry Biden supporters.
.(Snip)Federal cases against January 6 protestors are being built on what one savvy electronic evidence consultant called a “Tower of Babel nightmare.” While federal agents gloated at the 300,000 plus tips that poured into the FBI with regards to January 6 protestors, prosecutors are obliged to sift the hairballs and provide each defendant and their lawyers with potentially exculpatory evidence.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) on Monday said it is the community’s mission to get more people vaccinated, previewing his administration’s desire to knock on doors, put unvaccinated people in cars, and drive them to “get that vaccine in their arm.”
“I wear a mask because I care about you. I get a vaccine because I care about you,” Cuomo said, framing compliance to various methods of government coercion as an expression of selflessness.
“We understand that we are all in this together. We understand that as goes one goes all in this city where we all live together and in this state where we all live together,” he continued.
Former US Senator Barbara Boxer was assaulted and robbed of her cellphone on Monday in Oakland, California. The assailant, who fled the scene in a waiting vehicle, pushed 80-year-old Boxer in the back and stole her phone, her son, attorney Douglas Boxer, confirmed.A tweet published on Boxer's verified account said 'she is thankful that she was not seriously injured'. Oakland police said a robbery occurred around 1.15pm local time in the Jack London Square neighborhood

Perhaps it’s because I grew up surrounded by extraordinarily tough people, but I found myself singularly unmoved by the spectacle in the House on Tuesday, which reminded me of a bad mash-up of Dr. Phil, Oprah, and BLM-produced soap opera, rather than a legitimate inquiry into an event that Democrats have seized upon to consolidate their power by destroying their opposition. As sobbing congressmen and Capitol Police officers took turns talking about their psychic injuries, I was alternately embarrassed for them if they were really that weak, and frightened of them if they were that sociopathic as a pathway to power.
As protesters poured into the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, a Black Capitol Police officer passionately testified Tuesday that he faced racist epithets, the likes of which he had never heard while serving in uniform.
“You hear that, guys, this n***** voted for Joe Biden!” a woman in a pink MAGA shirt yelled toward Capitol Police Pfc. Harry Dunn, he recounted, after Dunn said he voted for President Biden.
“Boo! F****** n*****!” the crowd of about 20 yelled back, Dunn recalled.
DC Police Officer Daniel Hodges during a House hearing regarding January 6 on Tuesday repeatedly referred to pro-Trump insurrectionists who stormed the US Capitol as "terrorists."
Hodges during his testimony pointed to the hypocrisy of the rioters carrying symbols of support for law enforcement as officers were simultaneously and brutally assaulted.

Between his bumbling about during a CNN town hall last week and his over the weekend episode where he seemingly says “my butt’s been wiped,” the condition of President Biden’s mental faculties had drawn increased scrutiny in recent days. And during an appearance on Monday’s Special Report, Fox News senior political analyst Brit Hume did what the liberal media refused to do and called it out, noting “these are signs of senility.”“You know, Brit, the President obviously receives some pretty good press overall from the media,” anchor Bret Baier prefaced as he broached the subject. “But, there have been a couple answers
Sympathy for Simone Biles

Simone Biles, the main reason anyone wants to watch the Olympics, given her thrilling artistic gymnastics, has pulled out of the U.S. team events, and since then, even the individual all-around event, citing her mental health (snip) Certain people on the right, who shall be nameless, criticized her as a "quitter." Others said she was too self-focused, and still others said she was a wokester or snowflake.
But that's not fair to her, given that she wanted to win. Her decision was practical and quite selfless in that in pulling out she gave the rest of her team the placement to win the silver

Democratic lawmakers and Interior Secretary Deb Haaland want to change the names of more than 1,000 rivers, mountains and other places because they consider the names to be racist. A Democratic bill introduced last week in both chambers—one by Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and the other by Rep. Al Green of Texas—would also eliminate the names of places that are named after people who “held racially repugnant views” or “carried out injustices against racial minorities,” according to the legislation.
“Racism, even in geography, cannot be tolerated in a country that strives for liberty and justice for all,” Mr. Green said. The lawmakers refused to provide
