What Is Planned Parenthood Hiding? Big Abortion Sues Indiana For Forcing It To Report Medical Complications and Submit to Inspections | American Center for Law and Justice:

"Big Abortion is heading to an Indiana federal court to fight a new law that would force them to reveal any medical complications that take place inside their clinics.
Our question is, what are they hiding?
Sources report the new Indiana law requires medical centers that treat women to report complications from abortion procedures, as well as report detailed patient information to the state. A separate provision also requires annual inspections of abortion clinics."

How Intellectuals Train the Underclass to Feel Helpless | Intellectual Takeout
"Recently a psychologist friend was singing a familiar refrain: "My clients want their problematical circumstances alleviated, but few want to change how they see the world.”
Most intransigent among his clients are those with government benefits and mandated weekly therapy. 
Some have been coming to him for years.
Their mindsets are characterized by hopelessness, but they have shelter and food and seem to be averse to change.
Going to therapy is a big event in their week.
Qualifying for benefits is important to them.
An oft-repeated question is, "Can you get me eligible for more benefits?"
They were unlikely to take steps to hold a steady job, since doing so is at odds with keeping their benefits..."

There was no Trump-Russia collusion, but Putin achieved his goal | TheHill:
"The House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence has published its report on Russian "collusion" or, more accurately, on "Russian active measures," a phrase associated with the subversive methods used by the former Soviet Union to undermine Western democracies.
This isn't just anther congressional "memo." 
At more than 240 pages in length the, report took more than a year to write, with more than 70 witnesses interviewed, 300,000 documents reviewed and almost two dozen congressional subpoenas issued.
...Russia has been undermining Western democracies with "active measures" such as propaganda and disinformation for a very long time, yet, in 2015, Vladimir Putin initiated a specific influence campaign targeting the elections for U.S. president.
This was not done to assist a specific candidate but to "sow discord in American society and undermine our faith in the democratic process." 
And in this he was successful..."

Student activists demand 'reparations': exclusion of white authors from humanities course - The College Fix

Student activists demand 'reparations': exclusion of white authors from humanities course - The College Fix: 
"After a year and a half of disruptions against a mandatory humanities course they say is too white, student protesters at Reed College got what they wanted.
And they’re not happy about it.
Reedies Against Racism argues that Humanities 110, “Introduction to Humanities: Greece and the Ancient Mediterranean,” has become even less diverse with the addition of texts from the Americas.
In an April 11 Facebook post, RAR said the remaining European texts in the course should be ditched in its first year and replaced with non-European texts “as reparations for Humanities 110’s history of erasing the histories of people of color, especially black people.”
...The revised Hum 110 will divide into four modules. 
New freshmen will learn about Athens and Rome in the first semester of the 2018-2019 school year. The second semester will feature Mexico City and Harlem, a change adopted by faculty in response to RAR demands..."

Lift the gags in the pharmacy | Crain's Detroit Business:
"It's time to take the gags off pharmacists and end a practice that makes it a disadvantage to have health insurance.
A push is underway in Lansing to free pharmacists to tell patients when there is a cheaper way to fill their prescriptions, and it deserves to succeed.
...The way gag rules work is this: Pharmacy benefit management companies, the middle men in the system who negotiate drug prices between insurers and pharmacies, insert a requirement into contracts that bans pharmacists from telling patients when the cash price for medicines is cheaper than the price when processed through insurance.
Often, patients will pay the full co-payment for drugs even if the cash price is lower than the co-pay. The pharmacy benefit manager typically pockets the difference, in a practice known as a "clawback."...

"They Can’t Make Cartoons Like This Anymore.
During the early 1940s war propaganda films were very common in American cinema, in fact they were so common that most of the animation studios began creating their own cartoons spoofing the war.

In August of 1942 Warner Bros. released a Looney Toons short titled “The Ducktators” satirizing Hitler and the Axis Powers. 

The cartoon features a barnyard full of ducks, geese and chickens living peacefully until a jet black egg hatches revealing a goose resembling Adolf Hitler. 

True to form the Hitler goose begins goose-stepping around the barnyard rallying ignorant ducks to his cause in a parody of Hitler’s rise to power..."

The Pentagon's Ray Gun Can Stall Cars - Slashdot
 Defense One:
The Defense Department's Joint Non-Lethal Weapons Program, or JNLWD, is pushing ahead with a new direct energy weapon that uses high-powered microwaves to stop cars in their tracks without damaging the vehicle, its driver, or anyone else. The jammer works by targeting the car's engine control unit causing it to reboot over and over, stalling the engine. Like an invisible hand, the microwaves hold the car in place. "Anything that has electronics on it, these high-powered microwaves will affect," David Law, who leads JNLWD's technology division, said in March. "As long as the [radio] is on, it holds the vehicle stopped."
It weighs 400 pounds -- it's the size of a large copy machine -- and uses 300 kilowatts of power that's generated by a gasoline-powered turbine.
"To deploy it, the driver would pull out in front of the attacker and turn it on."

Here Are Three Scary FBI Scandal Factors You Must Know

Here Are Three Scary FBI Scandal Factors You Must Know
"There's an old Washington maxim about being careful because 'what goes around almost always comes back around'
There are three scary but crucial factors underlying the rapidly growing FBI scandal that most people miss, even though these factors are hidden in plain sight.
Recognizing and understanding this trio goes a long way toward explaining what has happened in the scandal — and where it is likely to go next.

• First, there’s Horowitz’s revenge. Virtually everybody in the nation’s capital is waiting either in fear or in eager anticipation for the upcoming investigative report of Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz...Here’s why: The Inspectors General Act of 1978 authorizes the IGs and their investigators and auditors to obtain and examine any official document necessary to carrying out their responsibilities in fighting waste, fraud and corruption in government. Presidents appoint IGs — but those IGs report to Congress, making them an important component of congressional oversight of the executive branch. But a few months before Horowitz was sworn into the job in 2012, Eric Holder, Obama’s attorney general and previously deputy attorney general under President Bill Clinton, gutted the IG act provision that mandates their access to all necessary documents. Holder acted at the behest of then-FBI Director Robert Mueller and others at the bureau.

"In February, the Islamic State warned us that they would send half a million Muslim migrants into Europe — an army against the West. 

...Leftist elite authoritarians, responsible for the ongoing catastrophe, scoffed at our warnings. Instead, they defamed and libeled my colleagues and me, while fictionalizing what was/is essentially the invasion of Europe.
Clear-thinking Americans saw what was happening in Europe, saw that the Democrats wanted that same horror for us, and took action — President Trump. 
...Pay heed, 2020 is just around the corner, and the Democrats have declared war. 
What better way to achieve their goals than by importing an army?

"President Trump signed an executive order Wednesday to start pulling the federal government out of K-12 education, following through on a campaign promise to return school control to state and local officials.
The order, dubbed the “Education Federalism Executive Order,” will launch a 300-day review of Obama-era regulations and guidance for school districts and directs Education Secretary Betsy DeVos to modify or repeal measures she deems an overreach by the federal government."

Disappeared-----James Levine wiped off Sirius-XM…

Instapundit » Blog Archive » OCEANIA HAS NEVER BEEN AT WAR WITH THE NEW YORK METROPOLITAN OPERA: James Levine wiped off Sirius-XM…:
OCEANIA HAS NEVER BEEN AT WAR WITH THE NEW YORK METROPOLITAN OPERA: James Levine wiped off Sirius-XM’s Met Opera Radio channel. 

This means the 40 years of broadcasts while Levine was music director has been silenced.

The Levine operas have been replaced with full-length broadcast recordings from the 1930s, 1940s, and especially 1950s with often dubious technical quality despite great singers.

Now everyone knows that Levine and the Met are only speaking through lawyers these day, but this vindictive editing of institutional history is reminiscent of Stalin at his worst, when Trotsky and other undesirables were whited out of party pictures.

The Met fired Levine last month, the L.A. Times reported, “after finding ‘credible evidence that Mr. Levine had engaged in sexually abusive and harassing conduct.’”

By that standard, a whole lot of Hollywood’s back catalog of both movies and TV shows will soon be tossed down the Memory Hole, no matter how big the resulting bonfire’s carbon footprint will be.

Best picture Oscar winners are out of touch with audiences: Box office data - Business Insider: 
"It's easy to say that the Oscars are out of touch with the regular moviegoer, but when you dive into the numbers it's scary how correct that general thought is.
We looked back at the lifetime domestic gross for the last 15 best picture Oscar winners and matched those with the lifetime gross for the movies that topped those years at the box office. 
And only once did they match up (2003's "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King").
In fact, most of the best picture Oscar winners didn't crack $100 million at the box office and only two crossed the $200 million mark — and that's counting inflation!
See the last 15 years for yourself below. 
As you'll see, the numbers don't lie.
Note: All figures are domestic grosses only from Box Office Mojo and are added for inflation."

John Podesta: "We Must Reduce World's Population" - Your News Wire

"Former Clinton campaign chair John Podesta has outlined plans to implement a controversial eugenics program in order to depopulate the planet. 
Writing for the Washington Post, Podesta claims that reducing the world’s population is not only desirable, but absolutely necessary in order to “reduce carbon emissions by 2050.”

Writing for WaPo, Podesta writes:

"When we talk about stepping up to address climate change across the world, we rarely think of it in terms of women’s rights. But if environmental activists really want to reduce emissions, raise living standards and build a more sustainable future, they cannot overlook the importance of reproductive rights and health.

Forging a coalition between the environmental movement and the women’s rights movement will not only fundamentally advance women’s rights but also do a world of good for the planet, which is bearing an environmental burden because of population growth..."

Democratic Party Revolutionaries Destroy Norms, Advocate Violence | National Review

Democratic Party Revolutionaries Destroy Norms, Advocate Violence | National Review:

"The danger to the country this time around is that the Left has so destroyed the old protocols of the opposition party that it will be hard to resurrect them when progressives return to power.
We are entering revolutionary times. The law is no longer equally applied. The media are the ministry of truth. The Democratic party is a revolutionary force. And it is all getting scary."

What Leftists Stand For

What Leftists Stand For:
"Historically, both sides of the political spectrum in America have supported the rule of law and the Constitution.  
Additionally, other than the Democrats' longstanding racist oppression of black people, the positions held by both sides were generally differences that people of goodwill could hold.  
For example, good people can disagree on just what the tax rates should be.

Since Roe v. Wade, that has changed, and the change has accelerated rapidly in the last eight years.  
The left in America has openly embraced evil, rejected the rule of law, and denied that Americans they disagree with have constitutional rights.

That's why 2016 was a Flight 93 election: the political fight in America is no longer among people of good will, but between evil fascists and the American people.  
Most of the people who vote for the Democrats have no idea what the left actually stands for due to the actions of the media, who hide the truth.

Here are some of the evils perpetrated or supported by large numbers of leftists so you can convince those Democrat voters to switch sides:

8. They don't care that cheap illegal labor hurts black people by denying them jobs.

9. They don't care that their fake climate crisis will drive up energy costs and hurt the poor, who are disproportionately people of color.

10. They declare that giving inner-city black parents the choice of sending their kids to a school where they will get a good education is "racist."

11. They don't care that thousands of blacks are shot each year in Democratic-run cities.

12. They deny witness reports by black crime victims that show that blacks are more likely to commit crimes, though most blacks are law-abiding, and demand that blacks be incarcerated at the same rate as all other groups, ensuring that blacks continue to suffer from black-on-black crime.

13. They want to take money from people who never owned slaves and give it to people who never were slaves.

14. They refuse to accept any election result that doesn't favor them.

56. They hate the police and demand that cops be perfect or face jail time.

...This in turn tells us why we have to fight and why, even though the Republicans have failed us many times, letting the Democrats take over the House or the Senate, or both, would be a disaster of unparalleled magnitude..."

Poll: Nearly 2 Out of 3 Voters Support Reducing Legal Immigration to U.S. | Breitbart
"Nearly two out of three American voters say they support President Trump’s plan to reduce overall legal immigration levels in the United States, whereby currently more than 1.5 million legal immigrants arrive annually.

In a new poll by Harvard-Harris polling, about 66 percent of voters — or nearly two out of three — said they support a plan by the Trump administration to almost cut legal immigration in half by ending the process known as “chain migration,” as well as the Diversity Visa Lottery, and building a border wall along the U.S.-Mexico border.

The deal would couple the wage-boosting relief for American citizens with allowing only illegal aliens enrolled in the President Obama-created Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program to stay in the U.S. There are nearly 800,000 DACA illegal aliens.

...Since 2005, chain migration has allowed 9.3 million foreign nationals to resettle in the U.S. for no other reason than they had extended family members already living in the country. This huge inflow outpaces two years of American births, which amount to roughly four million babies every year..."

Parents Stand Up for Children in ‘Sex Ed Sit Out’ | Intellectual Takeout

Parents Stand Up for Children in ‘Sex Ed Sit Out’ | Intellectual Takeout:
"Parents across the country pulled their children out of public schools on Monday for the “Sex Ed Sit Out”—a grassroots awakening of frustrated parents who are sick of the sexualization of children in their taxpayer-funded schools.
The Sex Ed Sit Out was conceived by Elizabeth Johnston, who blogs at Activist Mommy, and other moms on social media who are concerned about the increasingly graphic, unscientific nature of sex education in public schools.
Parents protested in cities across the United States, as well as in England, Canada, and Australia.
In solidarity with the event, parents in Northern Virginia held a conference on Saturday on the radical changes in sex education and how schools deliberately deceive parents.
A common note struck at the conference was the anti-science approach of the Fairfax County sex ed curriculum.
Students are taught that they weren’t really born male or female—rather, a sex was assigned to them at birth by a delivery room doctor who might have gotten it wrong.
In fact, sex ed curriculum advisers recently announced that “biological sex is essentially meaningless,” and the phrase is being scrubbed from all lessons and replaced by the phrase “sex assigned at birth.”
It’s a little sexual-revolutionary agitprop to keep the youngsters off balance..."

The Changes That Made California Become a Liberal Fiasco

The Changes That Made California Become a Liberal Fiasco: "A Basket Case

“California’s de facto status as a one-party state lies at the heart of its poverty problem,” wrote Kerry Jackson, the Pacific Research Institute’s fellow in California studies. “With a permanent majority in the state Senate and the Assembly, a prolonged dominance in the executive branch, and a weak opposition, California Democrats have long been free to indulge blue-state ideology while paying little or no political price. The state’s poverty problem is unlikely to improve while policymakers remain unwilling to unleash the engines of economic prosperity that drove California to its golden years.”"

"This year marks the 85th anniversary of the New Deal, the controversial set of programs, public works, and economic reforms that President Franklin Delano Roosevelt undertook to combat America’s Great Depression. 
Historians commonly contend that the New Deal was pivotal in beating the Great Depression and protecting the American middle class. 
But how significant was it, actually?

Although plenty of agencies and reforms remain intact, there is much more to the story than meets the eye, as in most popular accounts of polarizing events.
