University of Massachusetts Nursing Dean Fired After Saying “Everyone’s Life Matters” [Updated] – JONATHAN TURLEY
University of Massachusetts Nursing Dean Fired After Saying “Everyone’s Life Matters” [Updated] – JONATHAN TURLEY
"We have been discussing the growing fear of professors and students over the loss of free speech on campuses for years, but recently those concerns have been greatly magnified with the investigation or termination of professors for expressing opposing views about police abuse, Black Lives Matter movement or aspects of the protests following the killing of George Floyd.
There is a sense of a new orthodoxy that does not allow for dissenting voices as campaigns are launched to fire faculty who are denounced as insensitive or even racist for such criticism.
The most recent controversy involves the recently installed University of Massachusetts-Lowell Dean of Nursing Leslie Neal-Boylan. Dr. Neal-Boylan had only been in her position for a few months when she was fired.
The reason, according to many reports, is that she sent an email on June 2 to the Solomont School of Nursing on the recent anti-racism demonstrations across the country that include the words “everyone’s life matters.”...

"Some things are so obvious to me that I assume everyone knows, but then I discover lots of people don't know.
I thought everyone knew of Juneteenth.
And I thought everyone knew why President Donald John Trump tweets.
Apparently, many people don't.
Allow me to explain.
And I thought everyone knew why President Donald John Trump tweets.
Apparently, many people don't.
Allow me to explain.
His tweets are successful.
They work.
They help him and therefore this great nation.
We know this because liberals and other loonies work overtime trying to get him kicked off Twitter.
The media wants to use his tweets to divide him from the Republicans.

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,
--That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.
But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."

Heh. In case your media choice is not reporting this cuz they're racists....-----‘Anti-Colin Kaepernick’ Burgess Owens Wins Colorado GOP Primary
‘Anti-Colin Kaepernick’ Burgess Owens Wins Colorado GOP Primary"Former Oakland Raiders Super Bowl champion safety Burgess Owens won the Utah Fourth Congressional GOP primary on Tuesday night and will now face off against Rep. Ben McAdams (D-UT).
Owens decisively won the Fourth Congressional District’s primary by roughly 20 points.
...McAdams unseated former Rep. Mia Love (R-UT) during the 2018 midterm elections.
The Cook Political Report rates the race as a “lean Democrat,” but Owens’ potential victory over McAdams could help the GOP retake the House majority.
Owens told Boyle in February:
My generation has dropped the ball. We have allowed the socialists and Marxists to get in our school systems and teach our kids a different way than we were brought up. Kaepernick is a good example. In today’s society, our greatest enemy is socialists and Marxists who lay in wait and attack our most vulnerable. In this case, you have kids going to school fresh-eyed and excited about life and looking forward to a great future, but they come out anti-American Marxists. We have to understand that’s what we’re up against as Americans, and we have to make sure our kids have a better future and more positive future with love for country, God, and family—and we have to start fighting against this evil of socialism and Marxism.
Owens said in an interview with Breitbart News Saturday in May that “Democrats must have” Utah’s Fourth District “to keep their power. We must have it to take back our country.”

Dan Crenshaw on Cancel Culture and Mob Mentality - Louder With Crowder
Dan Crenshaw on Cancel Culture and Mob Mentality - Louder With Crowder:
You see, this isn't about taking down offensive messages or symbols. These mobs didn't suddenly stumble upon some forgotten and offensive historical anecdote, or reach their wits' end after seeing Aunt Jemima on the grocery-store shelf just one too many times. No, this was a deliberate hijacking of a tragedy. The touchy sympathies of "political correctness" were always just a base from which to launch a cultural revolution, a purge of traditional American narratives and icons.
It's about time we all woke up to it.

In order for a "case" to be reported a "probable case" (which the news reports as "new case") it needs ONLY this:
1. A reported "cough"or "sore throat" within the last 2 weeks and
2. "Contact" (meaning you were in a building or area. Not touching!) with a "confirmed" or "PROBABLE" case within the last 2 weeks.
This is ENTIRELY different from"confirmed cases"!

Retrospective study finds hydroxychloroquine reduced coronavirus death rate
Retrospective study finds hydroxychloroquine reduced coronavirus death rate"It seems the debate over the effectiveness of this drug isn’t over yet. The Henry Ford Health System based in Detroit, Michigan has produced a retrospective observational study which found hydroxychloroquine was effective in reducing the death rate of patients who received it.
The study analyzed 2,541 patients hospitalized among the system’s six hospitals between March 10 and May 2 and found 13% of those treated with hydroxychloroquine died while 26% of those who did not receive the drug died…...The study, published in the International Society of Infectious Disease, found patients did not suffer heart-related side effects from the drug.
Cutting the death rate in half is a pretty dramatic result... Read all.

"As political forces in the United States push for strict mask mandates to fight the spread of the coronavirus, new guidance issued by the World Health Organization undermines the left’s claim that people must be forced to wear the protective equipment in public.
The WHO posted the updated recommendations in a Wednesday tweet.
This most recent change, which outlines when people should not wear a mask in public, follows months of inconsistent information from the group about face coverings.
“People should NOT wear masks when exercising,” the WHO’s update reads, “as masks may reduce the ability to breathe comfortably.”
When wet with sweat, the organization explained, masks become more difficult to breathe through. It said unmasked people should keep a distance of “at least one meter” from others while exercising.
