Kids Full of Life, Adults Obsessed with Death

Children are perhaps the most-masked people in America, and clearly the people least needing to be masked. Whether or not one believes that masks work—and the best available scientific research suggests, as I have detailed in City Journal, that surgical and cloth masks provide little to no benefit in stopping the spread of viruses and might even be counterproductive—kids are plainly the least likely to be struck ill by Covid and probably the least likely to spread it. There’s an extraordinary difference—even greater than widely recognized—between Covid-19’s effects on kids and its effects on adults, as fatality

John McAfee’s body is stuck in a Spanish
prison morgue as a fight rages over his legacy

Even in death, the John McAfee saga grows stranger. More than seven months after he died in a Spanish jail, McAfee’s body remains in a prison morgue freezer somewhere in or near Barcelona. His daughter and ex-wife waged a legal fight over the body and a Spanish judge is continuing to conduct an investigation over the cause of his death. At the same time, the first of what is expected to be several attempts to detail the hard-to-believe exploits of the antivirus-software pioneer has arrived, a book whose contents are vigorously denied by McAfee’s family. It is unclear to those who were closest to McAfee why exactly his body has not yet
WEALTH TAX: Washington State One Step

Washington State took a big step this week towards passing a “wealth tax” on the state’s richest residents. The state — home to uberwealthy Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates, among others — is holding senate hearings on SB 5426, which would portion a 1% tax on “paper wealth” like stocks, bonds, futures, and publicly traded options. I’m reading the text of the bill right now, and about the first 15-20% of it isn’t even actual law. It’s nothing but happy talk, like “Washington has long led the way with innovative and bold ideas that have changed the world.” And: “Washington’s wealthiest residents can and should share more equitably in

From Jeff Bezos to Joe Biden, noted Sinophiles and racists litter the landscape of the Left. For where there is slavery (China), and racist social division to be sown (America), there is enormous profit to be made. It is an established fact that leading Democrats are cliche-spewing tools who emote out of the southern end of their alimentary canals and whose neurotic hysteria sets the national agenda. Yet, they have amassed quite a lemminglike following of true believers, progressive foot soldiers who think things have not gone "far enough" in terms of silencing, humiliating, and otherwise eliminating the universal scourge of "whiteness itself."

The fact-checking industry, empowered by the vast resources of social media giants, is under sustained scrutiny amid a possible legal battle among the British Medical Journal, Facebook owner Meta and a contractor it pays to flag purported COVID-19 misinformation. Facebook stopped some readers from sharing a BMJ investigation of "data integrity" issues in a Pfizer COVID vaccine trial, BMJ editors wrote in an open letter to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg in November. It also slapped "missing context" labels on posts that went through, warning users they could be penalized for sharing the article. Contractor Lead Stories seemed more interested, however, in promoting guilt by association and policing political views than

Michael Avenatti convicted of stealing
$300K from Stormy Daniels

Attorney-turned-criminal Michael Avenatti was convicted Friday of swiping nearly $300,000 in book-advance money from his then-client Stormy Daniels. The now twice-convicted felon — and one time rising star — now faces a maximum of 22 years in prison for his conviction on wire fraud and aggravated identity theft charges. A sentencing date has not yet been set. Throughout the trial, prosecutors painted Avenatti, 50, as a calculating thief who stole two book-advance payments from Daniels in 2018 that totaled nearly $300,000. The porn star, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, inked a book deal that year with St. Martin’s Press after it was revealed she was paid $130,000

Is the dam finally breaking on maintaining the fantasy that trans women do not have an inherent advantage over biological females in competitive sports? Sixteen members of the University of Pennsylvania women’s swim team sent a letter to the school and to the Ivy League, asking them not to take legal action that would challenge the new NCAA rules for transgender athletes to compete. The new rules would make it very difficult for their trans teammate, Lia Thomas, to compete as a female. The 16 swimmers — out of 39 on the team — are asking that Thomas be sidelined. “We fully support Lia Thomas in her decision to affirm

Joe Biden may be an accomplished grifter, habitual liar and at least three cans shy of a six-pack mentally, but what a brave commander-in-chief he is! Take last August, when, thanks to White House incompetence, thirteen U.S. servicemen and scores of Afghans were blown to bits outside Kabul airport. The Brandon administration angrily vowed to punish those responsible. And not a month later, Sleepy Joe droned an ISIS-K terrorist, then crowed to the world about justice served and America's amazing over-the-horizon military capability. Noted "white rage" expert General Mark Milley called the retaliatory strike "correct" and "righteous." A bristling Biden further warned ISIS-K, "We're not done with you!"

Amnesty International’s latest report defining Israel as an "apartheid" state since its founding has stirred up controversy. On the substance, the group is wrong, as Palestinian human rights activist Bassem Eid and U.S. Rep. Ted Deutch have eloquently shown. The group’s methodology is also flawed. After the release of the report, Lazar Berman, the Times of Israel’s diplomatic correspondent, interviewed Amnesty International Secretary General Agnes Callamard and the organization’s Middle East and North Africa Research and Advocacy Director Philip Luther. Suffice to say, both Callamard and Luther embarrassed themselves with inconsistency and general ignorance. Berman exposed the group's

Shares of Facebook parent Meta were hammered Thursday, falling 26% after the company revealed that privacy changes Apple made to its iOS platform last year have begun to sink their teeth into the social networking giant's bottom line. During its Q4 earnings report released Wednesday, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg explained that Apple's App Tracking Transparency feature, or ATT, will cut $10 billion out of Meta's earnings in 2022. Apps like Snap and Pinterest, however, appear to be fairing better in handling the change. With Snap saying that its advertising partners are adapting well to the new system. So what exactly is ATT, and how can it have such an outsized impact

After months of uninterrupted growth in state power, what we are now witnessing in the disputes rocking the Australian Open, Spotify, Marvel and the trucking world are spontaneous meeting engagements in the culture wars. It’s like a chain reaction of angry people setting off other angry people. The singular thing about this development is that it would have been impossible six months ago. A psychological barrier has been breached and a taboo has fallen. The potential of this to create a cascade is considerable. Most people psychologically want to get along, especially nonpoliticals, unless

Video of the incident shows punches being thrown and high chairs flying. Police confirm the brawl may have involved more than 40 people and happened following an argument among some customers.

A new super-mutant HIV strain that makes infected individuals ill twice as fast as current versions of the virus has been detected in the Netherlands. The new mutant—called the VB variant—has infected at least 109 people, according to a study by Oxford University. The strain damages the immune system and weakens a person's ability to fight everyday infections and disease faster than previous versions of the virus. It means those who catch this strain could develop AIDS more quickly. The VB variant also has a viral load between 3.5 and 5.5 times higher than the current strain, meaning infected people are more likely to transmit the virus

'Just saw Mike Pence’s statement on the fact that he had no right to do anything with respect to the Electoral Vote Count, other than being an automatic conveyor belt for the Old Crow Mitch McConnell to get Biden elected President as quickly as possible,' Trump wrote in a statement.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk accused GoFundMe of hypocrisy after the company canceled the Freedom Convoy fundraiser on Friday after it actively supported a campaign for the Capitol Hill Occupied Protest in Seattle.The crowdfunding platform claimed the convoy fundraiser - which raised $10million Canadian dollars ($8 million USD) in support of truckers protesting against COVID-19 vaccine mandates - violated its terms of service 'which prohibits the promotion of violence and harassment.' GoFundMe plans to distribute the remaining $9million of donated funds to 'credible and established charities' that were reportedly chosen by the convoy organizers and have been verified by the platform.

The US State Department is waiving sanctions on Iran's civilian nuclear program in the hope that Tehran will return to the 2015 nuclear agreement, a senior official said Friday.As U.S. negotiators head back to Vienna for what could be a make-or-break session, Secretary of State Antony Blinken signed several sanctions waivers related to Iran's civilian nuclear activities. The move reverses the Trump administration's decision to rescind them. The resumption of the waiver, ended by Trump in 2020, 'would be essential to ensuring Iran's swift compliance' if a new deal on controlling Tehran's nuclear program can be reached in talks in Vienna, the State Department official said

Vitamin D may help fight off coronavirus after all, a study suggests. The jury has been out on the 'sunshine vitamin' since early in the pandemic, with conflicting findings muddying the waters. Papers that did find a link were deemed not rigorous enough and not definitive. But a new study—this time in Israel—claims to have the most conclusive evidence yet. Previous research has been criticised for only looking at vitamin D levels when the Covid patient was already in hospital.(Snip)To overcome this limitation, in their latest study, researchers from Bar Ilan University and the Galilee Medical Center looked at patient records up to two years before

Karl Rove is, once again, beating the war drums.

On Jan. 28, Karl Rove shared an article on his Twitter page written by Noah Rothman attacking American populists who are opposed to sending our troops to war with Russia. My view is that Mr. Rove despises “America First.” He loves war and the global economy that all these wars prop up.
