Democrats have little to cheer about in
California recall victory
Posted By: Magnante, 9/15/2021 9:01:35 AM
Democrats are crowing about California's Gov. Gavin Newsom surviving his recall election, and by a 64% to 35% margin. (snip) A blue state governor with a huge Democrat-registered majority somehow won his recall election? Not a lot of news in that. Nor is the breakdown -- the rural counties voted against him, the big blue coastal cities voted for him. Democrats outnumber Republicans in voter registrations 40-25 and Democrats who've been elected have made the state a shambles for decades. In other words, it's not just from Newsom that the state is a mess and there's no sense of a huge sudden crisis, which probably worked to Newsom's advantage.

Who knew that rapper Nicki Minaj would emerge as a champion for free speech and an outspoken critic of censorship? Even stranger -- Minaj found herself retweeting Tucker Carlson while Carlson championed her on his nightly show.
Strange times indeed -- but alas “adversity makes strange bedfellows.”
Minaj just learned rule number one of the modern illiberal party -- there is zero room for liberty of thought.
Her critical error was having the audacity to question the vaccine narrative and encouraging people to make their own decisions.
We’ve long been used to the fact that banks and credit unions must report to the federal government any transactions greater than $10,000. (snip) But how would you feel if the government requires banks to report to the government — i.e., the IRS — every transaction of $600 or more? Well, if Democrats pass their $3.5 trillion American Families Plan, that’s exactly what will happen. (snip) hen one considers that the Supreme Court’s entire Roe v. Wade justification for abortion was that the Constitution has an implicit guarantee of privacy
Mr. Biden and other liberals are very upset with the unvaccinated. They've laid the blame, with the claim that this is "a pandemic of the unvaccinated."
I call BS. This is a "pandemic of the incompetent."
First, the CDC and NIH watched the virus ravage China and did nothing.
Next, they told President Trump that it was xenophobic to stop travel from China.
Next, they told us the virus was not transmitting human to human.Next, they changed, without reasoning, the reporting requirements for potential deaths associated with the virus to guarantee a higher death total in the U.S.
Next, they misrepresented the data for the projected death toll in America
The Unsung Death of ‘My Body, My Choice’
6 replies
As late as 3:43 p.m. on Thursday, September 9, the long-lived mantra of the pro-abortion movement, “My Body, My Choice,” was still showing signs of life. It was at that time, that the White House published the remarks made by Vice-President Kamala Harris at a “Reproductive Rights” roundtable. (snip) “And, needless to say,” Harris continued much too quotably, “the right of women to make decisions about their own bodies is not negotiable. (snip) So far is Harris out of the White House power loop that she may not have known the mantra had less than two hours to live.
Self-medicating for COVID with Cheap Drugs
11 replies
With the recent spate of “breakthrough cases,” we’re seeing the fully vaccinated getting infected with SARS-2, the novel coronavirus the world has been battling the last two years. (snip) One self-medication is Vitamin C. (snip) I was interested to learn that Zinc in conjunction with certain therapeutics is prescribed for COVID. That’s because I chew Zinc and Vitamin C pills to coat my throat when I feel a sore throat coming on, and it helps. If I ever notice any COVID symptoms, I’ll immediately start chewing C and Zinc tablets; that is, I’ll self-medicate.
This is the image the government - and its media maidens - broadcasts: a red hot map of Covid community spread gone wild. One look at it, and it rightly evokes panic. Five alarm fire. Run - or at least hide - for your lives. The sky is falling, again. Mommy, make it stop! (snip) it is a misleading image.
Instead, if the goal is to reflect reality and priorities - meaning risk - below is the better image. This image shows that a little statistic called “deaths” is down, way down. It shows deaths at near the low point of the 18-month pandemic.

One of the biggest stories in the media concerns hospitals filled to overflowing with COVID patients. However, as an article in The Atlantic (of all places!) informs us, these numbers are misleading. Almost half of the people in the hospital with COVID are either mildly symptomatic or asymptomatic. In other words, to anyone running around screaming, “We’re all gonna die!” the answer is “No, we’re not.” The biggest story is that of a 73-year-old Alabama man who purportedly died from a treatable heart attack after dozens of hospitals across a three-state region turned him away
Because They Are Evil
13 replies
There are a great many things coming from Biden, Fauci, the CDC, the State Department, the military, the Justice Department, and basically the Deep State that make no sense. From Biden and the Deep State, we are getting executive orders, mandates, guidelines, decisions, policies, and edicts that just do not make any sort of intellectual sense. It is not just a difference of opinion. It is not just different politics or a different point of view. (snip) The only way to explain what is coming from the placeholder at the White House and the Deep State elites is that they are just evil.
RIP: Norm Macdonald

I was shocked and saddened to learn that after a private bout with cancer, Norm Macdonald has succumbed at the age of 61. He has long been one of my favorite comedians, a man whose sense of irony was sharp and whose courage was legendary, (snip) political correctness had no appeal for him. He delighted in outraging the sensibilities of pious leftists, such as this excursion into women and comedy [video] (snip) Here is Norm on white privilege [video] (snip) His 1987 roast of President Clinton (to his face) at the White House Correspondents Dinner is the stuff of legend [video]
The White House censors Joe Biden

Last week, word emerged from the White House that Biden’s own staff can’t stand to listen to him. It’s not that they don’t agree with his policies (heck—they probably crafted them). Instead, it’s that he’s such a verbal loose cannon (snip) The White House abruptly cut the feed of President Biden‘s briefing on wildfires with federal and state officials. (snip) I do not see how his staff can keep propping him up if they’re reduced to silencing him whenever he gets a head of steam and starts moving his lips on his own.
I will never trust another doctor
47 replies
It happened again yesterday, twice. Reading through comments on a blog post I found this: "I will never trust another doctor again." I long ago lost count of the number of times I have seen that written.
You hear it, too. In private conversations with people they trust, American citizens are heaping contempt on doctors for forcing a narrative on us that had no basis in science. Many of us, perhaps even the majority, immediately recognized this virus for what it is -- a common flu virus

Those who follow the deep weeds of GOP politics already knew this was part of the plan. The DeceptiCon wing of the DC Uniparty is anticipating the DOJ, MSM and intelligence apparatus destroying President Donald Trump in the next 24 months to prevent his reemergence.
Meanwhile, the professionally Republican are framing a specific set of candidates to counter the MAGA coalition. Former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley, Arkansas Senator Tom Cotton, South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem, South Carolina Senator Tim Scott and former VP Mike Pence have all been put on the approved candidate board by the hedge funds and Wall Street multinationals who control the party financing from the
It’s a startling beginning of an obituary announcing the passing of Candace Cay Ayers from complications of severe COVID-19. “She was preceded in death by more than 4,531,799 others infected with covid-19. She was vaccinated but was infected by others who chose not to be. The cost was her life,” it reads. The Springfield, Illinois, mother was 66 and received her second shot of the Moderna vaccine in March, said Marc Ayers, her son. But the family believes she caught the breakthrough infection in July after visiting an unvaccinated friend in Mississippi. Her condition deteriorated quickly and she died on
Earlier this month, President Biden signed an executive order with a lofty goal: he wants over half of all vehicle sales to be electric vehicles by 2030. The CEOs of GM (GM), Ford (F), and Stellantis (STLA) attended the White House event and threw their support behind the measure, pledging to put billions of dollars into manufacturing EVs and to work with Democrats to have American workers produce them. “There’s no turning back. The question is will we lead or fall behind in the race for the future,” Biden said on Aug. 5. Rep. Debbie Dingell (D., Mich.), who represents
On Wednesday, General Mark Milley confirmed reporting of his two conversations with the Chinese military where he committed treason by promising to notify them if then-President Donald Trump were ever to launch a military strike.Milley broke the chain of command in these calls as he took matters into his own hands, breaking the law and committing treason.In a shocking statement on Wednesday, Milley confirmed the reports of his conversations but claimed everything he did was legal and “within his authority in the lawful tradition of civilian control of the military and his oath to the Constitution.”
When Joe Biden’s Health and Human Services made the announcement earlier this month (LINK) that they were taking full control over Monoclonal Antibody drugs (mAb) in order to begin rationing the highly effective treatment for COVID-19 infection, several people sounded alarm bells as there was the potential for rationing of COVID treatment based on political ideology. Representative Chip Roy of Texas was one of the first to raise concerns (link).
The change in HHS approach followed republican governor Ron DeSantis of Florida promoting the use of mAb and opening up dozens of treatment centers throughout his state. Other governors quickly took notice of the effective action plan
A Virginia Tech professor is under fire after she allegedly apologized to her students for being a straight, white woman.Dr. Crystal Duncan Lane, who taught human development and family science, is accused of using her Human Development 1134 course syllabus to push her students into addressing inherent biases and racism, according to Campus Reform.

During a visit to Golden Colorado, President Joe Biden tried smooching a little child while visiting the state to push his Green New Deal agenda.The president has a creepy history of touching, groping, sniffing and kissing young children so the recent video footage comes as no surprise.After speaking on climate change and wind turbines, the maskless president began walking through the crowd when his eyes narrowed in on a young boy.The boy, who at first seemed excited to see Biden, suddenly backed away in horror as Biden tried smooching him.
Barack Obama’s 2008 presidential campaign manager David Plouffe said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “The ReidOut” that Republican politicians were “speaking to their sick, perverted one-third of the country,” which he claimed got “injected by Fox News and Sinclair and Breitbart.”Anchor Joy Reid said, “Ron DeSantis — he may be a sociopath. We don’t know what his pathology is, but he’s not stupid. I think that he understands that if he is going to inflict death on schoolchildren, he’s going to have to make it real hard for their parents to vote, right?”Plouffe said, “So I think that there’s a third of the people out here in California
Former prime minister Paul Keating has slammed the new nuclear submarines deal between the US, UK and Australia, arguing the US military can't beat a bunch of Taliban rebels in pick-up trucks.In a damning assessment of the agreement jointly announced this morning by Prime Minister Scott Morrison, US President Joe Biden and UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson, Mr Keating said the deal represented a further 'dramatic loss of Australian sovereignty'. Mr Keating, the famously acid-tongued Labor PM from 1991-1996, released a statement that questioned the wisdom of Australia locking in its military equipment and defence forces with the US

New data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) out Wednesday shows the number of states with high obesity rates nearly doubled in the course of two years, with at least 35 percent of residents in 16 states consisting of adults with obesity in 2020.

the Lifesaving Antibody Treatment
Needed to Florida 21 replies
The Biden administration this week slashed the doses of lifesaving coronavirus antibody treatment to Florida, giving the state less than half of what is needed for a routine week, prioritizing “equitable distribution” — a move some suspect is a form of revenge against Republican governors whom the president vowed to get “out of the way.”
The Biden administration this week began to cut the distribution of monoclonal antibodies to red states, such as Florida and Alabama, contending those states, including Texas, Mississippi, Tennessee, Georgia, and Louisiana, are comprising too big a share of the supply in recent weeks — 70 percent.

The case against Mr. Sussmann centers on the question of who his client was when he conveyed certain suspicions about Mr. Trump and Russia to the F.B.I. in September 2016.
