For decades Phil Collins has been accumulating a huge collection of memorabilia from the legendary siege of the Alamo. Now the 70-year-old Genesis frontman's hoard of weapons, clothing, letters and other artefacts are at the centre of another battle—a very modern one about race. Critics argue the collection helps perpetuate a narrative that focuses only on the battle's white leaders and ignores Latinos, Native Americans and black figures.(Snip)In 2014, Collins gave the 430-piece collection–worth up to £10million–to Texas. His only proviso was that, by 2021, the state create a museum at the Alamo–a 300-year-old fortified mission in San Antonio

Planeloads of underage migrants are being flown secretly into suburban New York in an effort by President Biden’s administration to quietly resettle them across the region, The Post has learned.
The charter flights originate in Texas, where the ongoing border crisis has overwhelmed local immigration officials, and have been underway since at least August, according to sources familiar with the matter. Last week, The Post saw two planes land at the Westchester County Airport, where most of the passengers who got off appeared to be children and teens, with a small portion appearing to be men in their 20s. Westchester County cops stood by as the passengers—whose flights arrived

The NHL has suspended San Jose Sharks forward Evander Kane for 21 games for submitting a fake COVID-19 vaccination card. The league on Monday announced the suspension without pay and said Kane will not be eligible to play until November 30 at New Jersey. Kane will forfeit about $1.68 million of his $7 million salary for this season with the money going to the Players' Emergency Assistance Fund. The cash he is losing is equivalent to around $35,000-a-day.(Snip)Using a fake vaccination card is illegal in both the United States and Canada, as well as against NHL rules.

Conservative talk-show host Dan Bongino is telling his syndicator: Your vaccine mandate or me. “You can’t have both.” Prefacing his challenge with “I don’t work for anyone” and is merely a “partner with Cumulus,” Mr. Bongino challenged the radio giant on Monday’s episode of “The Dan Bongino Show” to cancel his program, vowing to “not let this go.”(Snip)Cumulus Media announced this summer that employees who work out of offices would be required to get the COVID-19 vaccination before returning to the office. According to Inside Radio, multiple Cumulus employees including some show hosts who refused to get vaccinated had either been fired or quit

The US economy is careening into another recession, two noted economists warn, as worries about the labor market and the coronavirus have worsened dramatically over the past two months.
The alarm bells are ringing as bad news piles up at the economy’s door: Prices on everyday goods are rising sharply as inflation is stuck at 30-year highs. Supply chains snarled during the pandemic mean some store shelves are bare. A labor shortage in some industries has left jobs undone.(Snip)Sentiment has deteriorated so rapidly, in fact, that two widely respected indicators of consumer feelings now are flashing red—indicating the US economy has already dipped into negative territory,

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell sold between $1million and $5million worth of stock options that he owned just before the stock market tanked last year because the government failed to pass a stimulus measure, it has been reported. Powell’s stock sale was reported just weeks after two top officials with the central bank resigned and a third came under fire for making multi-million dollar stock trades during the COVID-19 pandemic.(Snip)Dallas Fed President Robert Kaplan and Boston Fed President Eric Rosengren announced their retirements last month as they faced a backlash for cashing out while having knowledge of the central bank’s plans to bolster financial markets

New York—A statue of Thomas Jefferson will be removed from the New York City Council’s chambers at City Hall, a commission voted on Monday. During an hours-long hearing, the New York City Public Design Commission acknowledged the statue needs to be removed before the end of the year, however, a new location has yet to be determined.(Snip)The City Council’s Black, Latino and Asian caucus has long objected to its presence because Jefferson wasn’t just a U.S. president or a founding father, he was also a lifelong slave owner. Assemblymember Charles Barron and his wife, City Councilmember Inez Barron, led the fight to remove the statue.

President Biden and first lady Jill Biden flouted Washington, DC’s indoor mask mandate Saturday night when they were filmed walking maskless through a high-end Italian restaurant—with critics quickly blasting the first couple as “hypocrites.” The Bidens were caught on camera leaving Fiola Mare in Georgetown with their masked-up Secret Service agents in tow, according to videos posted on social media.(Snip)“Joe Biden was spotted walking around a restaurant without a mask last night. Just another reminder that rules implemented by the ruling class only apply to us, not them,” Joey Gilbert said.

Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) joined Maria Bartiromo on Sunday Morning Futures this morning. Senator Johnson is one of the few lawmakers openly speaking out on the historic dangers of the COVID vaccines.
On Sunday Sen. Johnson had this to say on the mandates, “The mandates are pointless. Now that we know that fully vaccinated individuals are getting infected, they can transmit the disease. Unfortunately, they are being hospitalized, they’re getting seriously ill, they’re dying.(Snip)“They’re completely ignoring the vaccine injuries. And Maria, people really need to understand this because it’s not being reported. It’s being suppressed. But over 25 years with the flu vaccine there were a little less

A statue of Confederate General Robert E. Lee that was taken down by Dallas city officials four years ago has resurfaced—at a private Texas resort.The massive bronze statue, which shows Lee on horseback with another mounted soldier, was removed by the city in 2017 amid the controversy following racial violence that erupted in Charlottesville, Va., earlier that year over the planned removal of another Lee monument. In 2019, the Dallas statue was sold at an online auction for $1.44 million to the city-based law firm Holmes Firm PC—and is now on display at the 27,000-acre Lajitas Golf Resort in predominantly white Terlingua, Texas.
Comments:
The BLM spokesmouth disapproves, of course. First they said these monuments don't belong in the public square, but instead should be on private property or in museums. The real problem for the Marxists is that anyone who opposed central government overreach is an obstacle to what comes next, and certainly should be erased from memory.
