“I was told directly to my face, and the quote is there from Dr. Fauci, they had never ever funded gain-of-function research in Wuhan. All three witnesses contradicted that,” Paul said. “I think that’s a big deal because the first hearing we have had where scientists who actually look at this information [and], as informed as he is, completely disagree with him and say that the research was gain-of-function and the NIH paid for it.”

Federal Prosecutor Sets Up Hotline for Reporting, Among Other Things, People "Espousing ... Hate-Filled Views"
  • "In Massachusetts, we have recently seen multiple incidents of groups espousing deeply offensive and hurtful ideologies displayed on our streets."
"A press release Wednesday by the U.S. Attorney in charge of the federal prosecutor's office in Massachusetts, Rachael S. Rollins announced the rollout of an "End Hate Now" telephone hotline:
The "End Hate Now" hotline [1-83-END-H8-NOW] is dedicated for reporting hate-based incidents or potential criminal activity. Massachusetts residents and visitors are encouraged to call the hotline to report concerning or troubling incidents of hate, potential hate crimes, or concerns regarding individuals believed to be espousing the hate-filled views or actions we learn of far too often in the wake of mass shootings and/or acts of hate-based violent extremism.

While protesting government officials is generally lawful activity protected by the First Amendment, one federal law appeared to outlaw exactly what the protesters were doing. Federal law 18 U.S.C. 1507 states:

A 75-Year-Old Warning about Those Who Say ‘Listen to the Science’
  • When people say “follow the science,” often what they’re really saying is “follow our plan.”
"On his first day as president, Joe Biden, flanked by a portrait of Ben Franklin, called on the federal government to “advance environmental justice” and “be guided by the best science.”
In many ways, Biden’s words came as no surprise.
Throughout the 2020 campaign and after, Biden had often repeated the phrases “listen to the science” and “I believe in science,” presumably to contrast himself with his opponent.

Biden didn’t stop there,

Fox News anchor guts 'fallacy' narrative that Biden pushed for months over record-high gas prices: 'The war is still raging' - TheBlaze

Fox News anchor John Roberts exposed the fallacy in President Joe Biden's narrative that blames Russian President Vladimir Putin for high gas prices. After Russia invaded Ukraine, Biden blamed record-high gas prices and even the inflation crisis on Putin, infamously dubbing the economic woes as "Putin's price hike."

The real "science".

Chinese Threat: Renounce Taiwan, or the Global Climate Gets It

"China’s suspension of climate cooperation, in response to Nanci Pelosi’s visit, is giving climate change worriers a taste of the thuggish geopolitical bullying Taiwan has endured over the years.

What We Must Do to Restore Confidence in Our Elections - American Thinker

What We Must Do to Restore Confidence in Our Elections - American Thinker

"According to Patrick Basham, there are such things as  “non-polling metrics” -- 

  • things like  comparative party registrations, 
  • turnouts in the primary elections, 
  • social media followings, 
  • attendance at campaign rallies 
  • and other measures that had, prior to the 2020 presidential election, predicted the outcome of presidential elections with 100% accuracy.  

In 2020, all these measures pointed to a Trump victory.  

  • In attendance at campaign rallies, for example, Trump’s average attendance exceeded Biden’s by a average ratio of 343 to 1. And yet Biden won. 
  • There were other anomalies: “…Biden could win only one of the 19 battleground counties around the U.S., but he supposedly won all of the battleground states.”  

...And in 2012, again on postal voting, Adam Liptak of the New York Times wrote:

“Voting by mail is now common enough and problematic enough that election experts say there have been multiple elections in which no one can say with confidence which candidate was the deserved winner.”..."
