California high school axes honors classes in the name of 'equity' - TheBlaze

Parents are fighting back after a California high school eliminated honors English classes, ostensibly to foster racial equity, the Wall Street Journal reported Friday. "We really feel equity means offering opportunities to students of diverse backgrounds, not taking away opportunities for advanced education and study," Culver City parent Joanna Schaenman, who helped spearhead the effort, told the WSJ.

WASHINGTON – With more than $100 billion in U.S. weaponry and financial aid flowing to Ukraine in less than a year — and more on the way to counter Russia's invasion — concerns about arms falling into terrorists' hands and dollars into corrupt officials' pockets are mounting...
"When you spend so much money so quickly, with so little oversight, you're going to have fraud, waste and abuse," John Sopko, the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction, said in an interview. "Massive amounts."
The State Department and U.S. Agency for International Development spent $46 billion for activities ranging from border security to funds for basic government services such as utilities, hospitals, schools and firefighting. 
Other government agencies, including the Department of Agriculture, spent another $5 billion...

President’s Day: A Woke Homogenized Celebration Of Nothing

President’s Day: A Woke Homogenized Celebration Of Nothing - by Jeff Dunetz
"Monday, February 20, 2023, is President’s Day. 
Originally it was a celebration of George Washington’s birthday. 
Eventually, it was moved to the third Monday in February. 
The move was forced by a bill passed by Congress in 1968 called the “Uniform Monday Holiday Act.” the bill’s purpose was to create three-day weekends.
...While officially a celebration of Washington’s birthday, after the bill took effect in 1971, it morphed into President’s Day, tearing down an American hero and replacing it with a meaningless woke day off work (for some). 
It became a trivial holiday.
...Instead...substitute a day of civics
  • A day of understanding the rights and obligations of every citizen and understanding how the Declaration Of Independence and the Constitution were part of creating those rights and obligations. 
Part of that day could explain how a President’s job has changed since George Washington.

Horowitz: West Virginia lawmaker introduces most important constitutional amendment to prevent COVID fascism from ever happening again - TheBlaze

Legally, if governments can force you take an action against your body, there’s quite literally nothing government cannot do to you. Scientifically, there is nothing in nature that works so amazingly that A can force it upon B, but it only works if B wears it or injects it along with A. “Your mask protects me, but my mask doesn’t; your shot protects me, but mine doesn’t,” is as silly as it is immoral and inhumane. If you believe something works, there is no need to ever force it on someone else. You can avail yourself of that amazing public health measure.

Jimmy Carter Was a Better President than You Think.

Instapundit - RESETTING THE BAR:

 Jimmy Carter Was a Better President than You Think.

To fight stagflation, Carter appointed tight-money advocate Paul Volker to head the Federal Reserve Board, and Volker pulled the brakes on inflationary monetary policy — hard. It solved inflation but sent the economy into a painful correction that probably cost Carter reelection.
At the Atlantic, Derek Thompson chronicles the dramatic and almost unnoticed impact of Carter’s airline deregulation over the last thirty years. The bottom line: per-mile ticket prices fell by over fifty percent...
...The impact of beer deregulation has been similarly overlooked: In 1978, the USA had just 44 domestic breweries. After deregulation, creativity and innovation flourished in the above-ground economy...

As P.J. O’Rourke wrote in his classic 1993 American Spectator article, “100 Reasons Why Jimmy Carter Was a Better President than Bill Clinton:”

...100. And let us not forget that Jimmy Carter gave us one thing Bill Clinton can never possibly give us—Ronald Reagan...--Posted by

  • There may be no more important fight in the next decade than the reassertion of basic honesty and lawfulness.
"America has been drifting toward a level of corruption incompatible with a free society and a free-market economy.
Political and economic freedom depend on the presence of a level of honesty that makes it possible for people to interact with one another with a sense of trust.
Consider recent corrupt, criminal events and their implication for the future of American culture.
  • An estimated $20 billion was stolen from California’s unemployment compensation program...
  • ...$191 billion in COVID-19 relief funding has been stolen. The inspector general cited one case in which a person had used identity theft in 29 different states to steal $500,000...
  • ...Shoplifting, flash robberies, and rampant crime have dramatically increased since so many jurisdictions have dramatically raised the dollar threshold of felony theft (in some places, stealing something worth $950 is a misdemeanor)...
  • Add to this the rises in carjacking, burglary, and mugging. The rise in crime inherently means more criminals and more acceptance of living on someone else’s money.
  • In this context, the Hunter BidenBiden family pattern of influence peddling is just one more example of a country sliding into the acceptance of criminality as the norm....

"To claim these vaccines are 'safe and effective' while minimizing and disregarding the adverse events is unconscionable," he wrote.

"...Who wish to be given without giving themselves.
  • Who look outward at every common obstacle in life as being unique to them and evidence of a collective effort to block their success rather than looking inward and asking themselves what they could have done more of, less of, or instead of in order to achieve that success.
  • Who focus only on exploiting the resources produced by others and ignoring the possibility of utilizing those resources to contribute more themselves.
  • Who expect the world to adapt to them in such a way that they will be assigned a reward rather than making the necessary changes in themselves that will lead to their earning of that reward.
  • Who will be unable or unwilling to distinguish between the concepts of want and need, of deserve and earn, of take and share...
And, sadly, there will always be that element of society who feels the drive to prop those people up and allow them to receive the compensation of effort without the actuality of effort.
When we as a common society have lost sight of the notions of risk=return and effort=reward, and have replaced them with the concepts of want=merit and entitlement=benefit... we have begun a slow but steady spiral down to our own undoing.
Because when too many are looking for a handout, we will soon discover that every hand is empty."

Endless "free-money".
