The long knives are out!-----Kamala Harris Facing White House Sabotage as Establishment Media Lay Out Pete Buttigieg’s Path to Presidency
- Vice President Kamala Harris is facing White House sabotage as the establishment media lay out Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg’s path to the presidency.
“It’s a whisper campaign designed to sabotage her,” Biden’s senior adviser Cedric Richmond said, admitting Friday to the Hill the infighting is real.
Axios reported Friday Harris’s aides are panicked that she is “fucking up” and perhaps “shouldn’t be the heir apparent” for 2024’s presidential race because she “could not defeat whomever the Republican Party puts up.”...Read all.

Dead last!-----U.S. Has Lowest Trust of Media In 46 Countries Surveyed, According to Reuters Institute Report
As a collective industry, our mainstream corporate predominantly liberal and leftist media is manipulative, arrogant, elitist, demeaning, smug, and manipulative (but I repeat myself).
It’s no surprise that a just-released Report by the Reuters Institute and the University of Oxford finds US ranks last among 46 countries in trust in media:
The United States ranks last in media trust — at 29% — among 92,000 news consumers surveyed in 46 countries, a report released Wednesday found. That’s worse than Poland, worse than the Philippines, worse than Peru. (Finland leads at 65%.)...Read all!

"...this is going to be an "epic catastrophe." ..."
"A retired Army colonel with combat tours in Afghanistan (and Iraq) told me that this is going to be an "epic catastrophe."
OTOH, Afghanistan's history shows that it is unmanageable, IMO, and the Soviets spent 10 or 11 years there with no good outcome.

Never trust the "american" media. NEVER!-----Are We Nazi Germany? - American Thinker
"I've noticed that whenever the subject of Nazi Germany is raised, someone always says something like this: "It's unbelievable that Adolf Hitler was able to manipulate and control the entire German population. It just seems impossible." Yet that's exactly what he did.
...Like a lot of Americans, I always assumed that America was safe from the kind of tyranny the German people experienced under the heavy hand of the Third Reich.
Yet, for the past eighteen months, that's exactly what has happened in America.
A nation that always prided itself on its independence and individuality was suddenly locked down.
- Travel was restricted,
- schools and businesses were shuttered,
- we were commanded to wear face masks,
- voting laws were altered,
- isolation and quarantines were mandated, and
- speech was censored by social and mainstream media if Big Tech oligarchs judged what was said or written as "misinformation."
- A public health emergency was declared,
- borders were closed, and
- large gatherings were forbidden — including church attendance, funerals, and weddings.

Turning America's schools into madrassas of hate...and ignorance!-----To Eradicate Critical Theories in K-12 Parents Need to Know about the Invisible Layer of Control
"The battle over curriculum using critical theories in the K-12 classroom is raging nationwide. Legislatures have taken up the issue in some states, either mandating or prohibiting these curriculums.
...However, discussions often ignore one important group. In between the state education department and the local school district is a layer of non-profits. While you may be familiar with accreditation for colleges and specific types of degree programs, certain organizations provide accreditation at the K-12 level in about 20 states...
...it could be because Cognia and its president and CEO, Mark Elgart, Ed.D., clearly fall on one side of the debate over critical theories. Here is Elgart’s statement on “diversity, equity, and inclusion,” the code words for the discussion raging nationwide: Read all!
MOTUS A.D.: It All Looks Quite Shady
"I forgot that today is FLOTUS Friday, and what with Dr. Jilly hitting the Vogue cover (photography by none other than the legendary Lefty Annie Liebowitz!)...
I didn’t bother to read the article until the Jerusalem Post took time out of their busy day to mock America’s fawning media coverage of the FLOTUS: Why did ‘Vogue’ call Dr. Jill Biden a ‘goddess in stilettos?’
The real reason God created hosiery
I would say Dr. Jilly looks more like an aging school marm than a goddess given these feet, legs and hands but what do I know compared to America’s leading fashion rag mag...
...But allow The Jerusalem Post to describe Vogue’s obsequious coverage:
As if the title of its cover story – “A First Lady for All of Us: On the Road with Dr. Jill Biden” – wasn’t sufficiently sycophantic, its accompanying content reads like a parody of a totalitarian regime’s propaganda sheet.
Those observing the current Orwellian climate in the United States no longer gasp at each new move by “progressives” to control society’s collective mind, but some take occasional breaks from tearing their hair out to laugh at the more egregious examples…Not that he was trying to be funny. On the contrary, he was clearly proud of praising Jill Biden, in all seriousness, for the “several degrees” that earned her the “title [of doctor] that she has every right to.”
To stress that she’s not just a teacher in girlie garb, he said that during her many trips around the country, “the role she’s fulfilling is, in many ways, neither first lady nor professor but a key player in her husband’s administration, a West Wing surrogate and policy advocate.”
…Yes, he wrote, “Joe Biden is boring – and that’s not a complaint.”
Of Dr. Jill, on the other hand, he said, “You generally hear her before you see her because she is often laughing. She is, quite simply, a joy multiplier.” [ed. – “joy multiplier” is no doubt part of the new Common Core math, of which we’ll explore a bit more tomorrow.]

I SUSPECT THAT CHINA IS QUIETLY PROMOTING THE WEST’S SELF-HATRED AND SELF-FLAGELLATION:
As I’ve said, the kind of history being promoted by the 1619 Project and the “antiracism” movement generally is the kind of history that a conqueror would impose upon a conquered population in order to break its will.--Posted by Glenn Reynolds"
