BLM, Reuters, and the Price of Dissent | City Journal
  • "Zac Kriegman had the ideal résumé for the professional-managerial class: a bachelors in economics from Michigan and a J.D. from Harvard and years of experience with high-tech startups, a white-shoe law firm, and an econometrics research consultancy. He then spent six years at Thomson Reuters Corporation, the international media conglomerate, spearheading the company’s efforts on artificial intelligence, machine learning, and advanced software engineering. By the beginning of 2020, Kriegman had assumed the title of Director of Data Science and was leading a team tasked with implementing deep learning throughout the organization.
But within a few months, this would all collapse. 
A chain of events—beginning with the death of George Floyd and culminating with a statistical analysis of Black Lives Matter’s claims—would turn the 44-year-old data scientist’s life upside-down. 
By June 2020, as riots raged across the country, Kriegman would be locked out of Reuters’s servers, denounced by his colleagues, and fired by email. 
Kriegman had committed an unpardonable offense: he directly criticized the Black Lives Matter movement in the company’s internal communications forum, debunked Reuters’s own biased reporting, and violated a corporate taboo...Read all!

Chicago Teachers Union on verge of strike for virtual teaching during COVID-19 surge - TheBlaze

The union has been foreshadowing a strike for days. Last week, the union surveyed its members asking if they would "support a district-wide pause and temporary shift to remote learning." They also polled members on whether they'd be willing to "participate in a city-wide work stoppage" if the union's demands are not met.

Douglas Andrews: Burying Biden's Big Lie About Vaccination | The Patriot Post
  • He’s told a lot of them, but this particularly nasty one about a “pandemic of the unvaccinated” has now been thoroughly debunked.
"It’s no secret that Joe Biden has an uneasy relationship with the truth — especially when it comes to his claims about vaccination.
  • For example: He was long ago proven to be a liar when he was asked whether vaccination should be mandatory and he answered: “No, I don’t think it should be mandatory. I wouldn’t demand that it be mandatory.” 
  • Likewise, he was long ago proven to be a liar when he told one of CNN’s resident perverts, Don Lemon, during a town hall meeting in July, “You’re not going to get COVID if you have these vaccinations.” 
  • Same with the lie he told just last month when he challenged our patriotism before sneering, “How about making sure that you’re vaccinated so you do not spread the disease to anybody else?”...Read all!

The Uselessness of Solar Energy | Power Line

"You sometimes see newspaper headlines to the effect that, say, a “50 megawatt solar power plant” is being constructed. But you shouldn’t count on getting anything remotely approaching 50 megawatts of power from such an installation. Energy expert Isaac Orr explains:

Data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) show that production from solar panels plummets in the winter. The graph below shows the percentage of electricity generated by solar panels in Minnesota compared to their potential output. This percentage is called a capacity factor in electricity-industry lingo.

Isaac’s analysis applies specifically to Minnesota, but bear in mind that while northern states get fewer hours of sunlight than southern states in the winter, they get more hours of sunlight in the summer. And note that in the best of times, solar panels don’t produce electricity anywhere near half the time...Read all.

"Turkey’s annual inflation soared to a 19-year high in December, according to government data, part of an escalating crisis driven by unorthodox monetary policies touted by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan that sent the lira into freefall and to record lows last year, and as consumer prices surge in many parts of the world.
The annual consumer inflation rate rose to 36% year-on-year in December, according to official data from the Turkish Statistical Institute, its highest point since September 2002...Read all!

Whitlock: Aaron 'The Jerk' Rodgers and COVID-19 might save America - TheBlaze

The lockdowns and isolation have sparked a rise in suicides and depression. The normal, healthy development of kids has been compromised. The experimental medical trials don’t seem to prevent COVID as advertised.

The COVID pandemic just might save freedom. It might make men stand up. It has certainly inspired Aaron Rodgers, the NFL’s most talented and interesting player.

Rodgers is remaking “The Jerk” into a superhero movie.

Joe Biden: Four Meat Companies Responsible for Rising Costs - Louder With Crowder

Nothing is ever Democrats' fault. When in doubt, they blame private industry and not their policies that make things difficult for private industry. It's their most popular lie next to calling someone racist. It's also a Biden Administration 2022 initiative. Joe Biden announces his plan to beat the meat on Monday. Also, he's confused about why hamburger is so expensive.

Covid misinformation by reporters calling out Covid misinformation | Sharyl Attkisson

Covid misinformation by reporters calling out Covid misinformation | Sharyl Attkisson
"...Too often when establishment figures and media publish factually untrue information or make false statements, it's overlooked or "fact-checked" as accurate.
One prime example is CDC's repeat Covid disinformation. 
  • In January last year, the agency's top officials and scientists got caught repeatedly, falsely claiming that Covid vaccine studies early-on showed there was a benefit to people getting vaccinated if they'd already had Covid. That was untrue. Even after the agency's officials admitted on audio recordings that their information was inaccurate, they continued to distribute it on their website to the public and to medical officials. To this day, nobody has been publicly held accountable for the dangerous disinformation.
  • ...Another, among dozens of examples, is CDC's director falsely telling the public that people who are vaccinated cannot spread Covid. 
  • ...A final big one to mention here is the many insistences, from Dr. Anthony Fauci on down, that masks weren't needed or aren't effective-- followed by edicts saying masks should mandatory-- followed by revelations that these very officials weren't wearing them themselves, or observing other mandates applied to others.
  • Amid the misinformation and confusion has been the sliding scale definition of "effectiveness" when it comes to Covid-19 vaccines.
  • ...They also falsely claimed Covid is a "pandemic of the unvaccinated," even in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary...Many more lies with links, read all!

Malkin: Associated Press = Associated Propaganda
"...The Fourth Estate will spare no one — not even the dead — in its ruthless pursuit of absolute power over political narratives.
Let us consider a widely disseminated hit piece by Associated Press investigative reporter Michael Biesecker published on Jan. 3. 
Here’s the bias-laden title that reads more like an MSNBC op-ed whine than a straight news headline:
“Ashli Babbitt a Martyr? Her Past Tells a More Complex Story.” 
...wait for it, it’s buried deep down in the article — acquitted by a judge of all the criminal charges. 
That’s it.
The rest of Biesecker’s steaming pile of vile is padded with disgruntled attacks against Babbitt by the still-seething ex-wife...
...Look: We all know if Ashli Babbitt had been black and had been shot and killed at a Defund the Police rally, the AP (which I’ve long said stands for Associated Propaganda) would be ramming the martyr narrative down our throats instead of debunking it...Read all!

“How should vaccinated and boosted people behave? Can they go into a restaurant, eat safely indoors right now?”

Let that question percolate in your noggin' for a bit. Fauci is a government official. Dana Bash is, at least in theory, a reporter. Reporters are supposed to hold government officials to account on behalf of the American people. This reporter is ASKING THE GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL'S PERMISSION for the American people to behave a certain way. This has become common and way too many people accept it.

This is, of course, illegal and should subject him to criminal prosecution at either the state or the federal level.

Instead, Manhattan will become a Mad Max-esque city, so rife with crime that, eventually, all normal life stops.
