World’s Easiest Question to Answer

World’s Easiest Question to Answer - Dan Mitchell
"...But allow me to throw in my two cents and answer the question about “Why are Americans Fleeing Public Schools?”
  • Subpar Education – I sent my kids to private schools because I wanted them to get a better-quality education and the evidence is clear that private alternatives do a much better job of teaching.
  • Political Brainwashing – It is good for kids to learn the good points and bad points about their nation’s history, but things like the “1619 Project” are academically sloppy and almost seem designed to promote victimhood and division.
  • Pandemic Failure – It became apparent to many parents that government schools, first and foremost, are run for the benefit of government bureaucrats rather than providing education for children....

Worth remembering!

'Don't trust mainstream media': Conservative author Douglas Murray and journalist Matt Taibbi win over hostile crowd, demolish media defenders in fierce debate - TheBlaze

"Your prime minister decided in advance that these people ... were Nazis, they were white supremacists, they were anti-Semites, they were probably homophobes, they were misogynists, they were probably transphobes. ... He did all the things you do in the modern political age if you want to just defenestrate somebody who's awkward to you," said Murray. Murray argued that "at such a time, what would the mainstream media do? It would question it. It would question it. The Canadian mainstream media did not. The Canadian mainstream media acted as an 'amen chorus' of the Canadian government."

Damned By Their Silence - by Peter Venetoklis
A private company colluded with a major political party to suppress damning news in order to influence a Presidential election.
...my quick survey of the New York Times, CNN, MSNBC, the Washington Post, and other prominent "news" sources found... nothing. 
Nary a peep about the Hunter Biden laptop story suppression that took place at Twitter, as revealed by Matt Taibbi's deep-dive into a trove shared by Elon Musk.
...Are there other stories of significance out there?
As of my typing this article (Sunday, 12/4/22, 9AM), these were the most prominent headlines on major news organization websites:
  • NYTimes: "The Chinese Dream, Denied: Harsh Measures Shake Beijing’s Social Contract"
  • CNN: "China operates over 100 police stations across the world"
  • WaPo: "From chicken wings to used cars, inflation begins to ease its grip"
  • MSNBC: "Kevin McCarthy’s GOP extremism problem is a very bad omen"
  • Reuters "Russia says it won't accept oil price cap and is preparing response"...

Censorship by surrogate: Why Musk’s document dump could be a game changer

Censorship by surrogate: Why Musk’s document dump could be a game changer
“Handled.” 
That one word, responding to a 2020 demand to censor a list of Twitter users, speaks volumes about the thousands of documents released by Twitter’s new owner, Elon Musk, on Friday night. 
As many of us have long suspected, there were back channels between Twitter and the Biden 2020 presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) to ban critics or remove negative stories. 
Those seeking to discuss the scandal were simply “handled,” and nothing else had to be said.

Elon Musk releases a trove of emails detailing the internal debate at Twitter over censorship of the Hunter Biden laptop story - TheBlaze

"Twitter took extraordinary steps to suppress the story, removing links and posting warnings that it may be 'unsafe.' They even blocked its transmission via direct message, a tool hitherto reserved for extreme cases, e.g. child pornography," Taibbi wrote. Initially, the decision was made to censor the story based on a dubious claim that information on the laptop might contain hacked documents from foreign governments.
