Once again, Bill Maher does a nice job on the facts about the virus
Once again, Bill Maher does a nice job on the facts about the virus and
alarmism. He does have the obligatory slams at Trump in there, including(to my surprise, I thought he was smarter than this) the utterly false
claim that Trump told people to inject disinfectants, but the bulk of his
comments are really spot on, and his very sharp jabs at the Democrats for
being so badly misinformed are neat. Enjoy.

Is America Living in a 9/10 Moment?
Is America Living in a 9/10 Moment?
The calm before a possible Great Power storm. By David French
Russian Hoax Prosecutor John Durham Issues Subpoena to ... "Brookings Institute"
Russian Hoax Prosecutor John Durham Issues Subpoena to ... "Brookings Institute"
Excerpt: The continued use of information from Danchenko has always been a huge “red-flag” problem in my review of the FBI’s conduct. There was simply too much information known to the FBI by December 2016 and January 2017 to press forward with the investigation while continuing to rely on earlier judgments that there was some substance to the Russia Hoax allegations. Nothing that the investigation was actually turning up — nothing that was later reported by the Mueller Special Counsel investigation or otherwise disclosed by Inspector General Horowitz’s report — has ever supported the FBI’s continued belief in the legitimacy of the “Russia Hoax” allegations such that the investigation should have been carried on after Pres. Trump took office. Maybe more than any other specific fact or set of facts, the information given to the FBI during the multi-day interview of Danchenko, combined with his “problematical” history that made practically worthless ANYTHING he said implicating anyone in subversive activity, made it improper for the FBI to push forward as it did when a “pause” and objective review of where the investigation stood and what they had learned would have likely caused it to have been shutdown. [Wow. Durham’s people are still making slow progress–but, it IS progress. The author speculates about where the info came from as there have been ZERO leads from Durham’s team, but the speculation seems valid to me. Ron P.]

Radicalized Political Ingratitude
Another nice review of why I'm glad to be living in a Red state. One that will probably survive as part of the New South when the SHTF at long last and the USA crumbles into separate sections. Stories like this keep indicating that barring some kind of miracle, the republic is doomed. --Del

Why violent crime surged after police across America retreated
So we need an explanation in USA Today as to why violent crime went up as policing activities decreased? Really?
But it's a good article, just supplies facts about what happens when you cut back on police work and work hard at demoralzing and demotivating officers. Of course some of us crazy old people did anticipate this, but hey, maybe that was just our Far Right bias showing itself? It couldn't be that we actually have some real understanding of how things work, could it? After all, so many really smart people with advanced degrees and so many politicians and activists said all this was a great idea.... how could they have been mistaken? Oh well...
The real question is how do cities regain a level of control and get back to that quaint idea of law and order. How are they going to recruit good people to go into law enforcement now? I can only feel sorry for the people living in a lot of these cities, until they vote in some seriouis people who will shrug off the "social justice" priority and get back to keeping citizens safe in their homes, businesses, and on the street.

Even the most dedicated officers who now face a greater risk of being sued, fired or prosecuted for doing their job feel pressure to pull back.

You Can’t Ignore Physics, Joe
You Can’t Ignore Physics, Joe
Excerpt: Joe Biden is not all that different from Donald Trump in his propensity to just blurt out the first thing that pops into his mind, whether or not it’s true, whether or not it even sounds plausible, and whether or not what he’s describing violates the laws of physics. Yesterday, in another sales pitch for his infrastructure plan, Biden said, “. . . what we’re really doing is raising the bar on what we can imagine. Imagine a world where you and your family can travel coast to coast, without a single tank of gas, or on a high-speed train close to as fast as you can go across the country in a plane.” This is almost physically impossible, even if we make the most optimistic assessments about advances in rail technology. Commercial airliners usually travel 550 to 580 miles per hour.

The Media Tried to Smear Ron DeSantis. It Backfired | Opinion
When you see a column like this in Newsweek, not exactly a Right Wing publication, you can rejoice that every once in a while the truth does come out at least a little bit in the media.
In this case, what 60 Minutes and their reporter tried to do was so damn egregious and so blatantly obvious that no remotely fairminded person could ignore it. Is all the media this biased? No, not all, but most of the media is biased and we see that readily.
Most media articles, including in the NYTImes this morning, are about how "Jim Crow" the Georgia election law is. Yet that it actually increases access to voting in terms of polling place time is ignored. That in fact its provisions are still a good deal more open to voting than numerous other states, e.g. New Jersey, is ignored. That it does not say people in line cannot be given water, it only says that partisan organizations cannot approach and distribute anything to people in line, which is very reasonable. (If it were GOP activists handing out water and snacks, we'd have heard about it a long time ago in furious protests.)
I am proud to say that an old friend who lives in George and is very much a Democrat told me she orginally heard the whole "voter suppression" screaming, but being bored at home decided to actually look at the legislation. Only to slowly realize it was not at all about voter suppression, and the claims were purely political propaganda. It won't change how she votes at all, but she is upset at the duplicity and stupidity of what is being claimed. (See... it is possible to be a Liberal and still abandon all reason. Although it's unfortunately not the way a lot of people have gone.)
It will be interesting to see how things go in Georgia at the next election.

Antifa’s Destructive Return Could Have Staying Power
Antifa’s Destructive Return Could Have Staying Power
Excerpt: The Seattle Police Department saw a mass exodus of nearly 200 police officers in 2020 after a relentless public campaign by anti-police activists and like-minded City Council members to demean, demoralize, assault, and defund police. The trend of officer resignations and retirements continues in 2021, with the Seattle Police Department having its lowest number of patrol officers since the early 1990s. What’s worse, under an unofficial order, Seattle’s remaining police officers aren’t allowed to engage with Antifa, police sources say, even though a tighter grip on the group’s “direct action” would lessen the likelihood of vandalism.
