MUST READ ALL!-----VICTOR DAVIS HANSON: The Price Of Eliminating Consequences | The Daily Caller

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON: The Price Of Eliminating Consequences | The Daily Caller
"Recently there were some remarkable online videos of a Portland, Oregon good Samaritan confronting shoplifters and forcing them to dump loads of their pilfered goods.
  • More stunning, however, was the sheer outrage — of the thieves!
They pouted. They screamed. They resisted. How dare anyone stop them from stealing anything they wished.
  • The criminals entertained no fear of any consequences for walking out with bags of things that were not theirs. 
  • They had no care that mainstreaming their habits would undermine the entire fabric of society.
What is common to the pandemic of smash-and-grab, carjacking, fighting on airliners while in flight, and deadly Saturday night shoot-outs is this same apparent assurance there will be no consequences.
That expectation of exemption is why the Antifa thugs in Atlanta were so bold in their latest violent attacks on the police...

Repeat the lies...

 

Well, is it 79%?-----ESPN issues correction after analyst falsely claims NBA MVP panel is 80% white - TheBlaze

ESPN issues correction after analyst falsely claims NBA MVP panel is 80% white - TheBlaze
"..."When Kendrick Perkins said 80% of NBA voters for the MVP award are white, the NBA publicly announces the voters each year, and after review, it is clear the panel is much more diverse than what was portrayed by Kendrick Perkins, and we wanted to make sure that we corrected that today."
Perkins, a former NBA player himself, said that "when it comes down to guys winning MVP since 1990, it's only three guys that won the MVP that wasn't top 10 in scoring."
"Do you know who those three guys were? Steve Nash, Jokic, and Dirk Nowitzki. Now, what do those guys have in common? I'll let it sit there and marinate. You think about it," he continued.
"When it comes to MVP voting, 80 percent of the voters are white American. Twenty percent are others. I know that stat," Perkins added.

...Sports writer Gary Sheffield Jr. commented, "Unfortunately for ESPN, Kendrick Perkins never knew or cared what the panel looked like because he has an agenda to push and it's to remind black people that we're always victims." "I just wonder when ESPN will begin to cut ties with this type of dialogue altogether and get back to talking sports? Ya know, what made us watch them all those years ago," Sheffield added.

There have been 67 total MVP awards handed out by the NBA. Of the 67, over 80% of the award recipients have been black. Since 2010, the award has been given to a white player twice, both to Serbian player Nikola Jokic.

As grip slips on J6 narrative, Democrats reintroduce ‘COVID-19 Victims Memorial Day’

As grip slips on J6 narrative, Democrats reintroduce ‘COVID-19 Victims Memorial Day’ - By Olivia Murray

"...Naturally, the regime needs a distraction...

It’s time for a Hail Mary, and apparently Massachusetts Democrats drew the short straw. Fauxcahontas and Ed Markey, both senators from the Old Bay state, just reintroduced a resolution in Congress to establish the first Monday of March as “COVID-19 Victims Memorial Day”... From the resolution:

Whereas, in late 2019, COVID–19 emerged and began to spread throughout the world, creating a pandemic that has had a catastrophic impact on human life, communities, and the economy of the United States...

Whereas the COVID–19 pandemic has had a disproportionate impact on low-income communities and communities of color….

Losers hate winners.

"The time has come to give up the fiction that COVID vaccines remain a necessary tool to promote public health," DeSantis wrote. "Florida's Surgeon General has issued guidance recommending against the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines for males ages 18-39 years old — precisely the cohort of Mr. Djokovic," he noted. "I respectfully ask you to grant his requested exemption so that he may delight and inspire tennis fans in Florida and around the Nation."

Tucker Carlson releases exclusive Jan. 6 footage, says politicians, media lied about Sicknick, 'QAnon Shaman' | Fox News

Tucker Carlson released never-before-seen footage from the Jan. 6, 2021 riots at Capitol Hill that appear to dispel several narratives pushed by the Democrat-controlled House Select Committee and the legacy media. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy granted "Tucker Carlson Tonight" an exclusive first look to over 40,000 hours of security camera footage from the Capitol Building that were hidden from the public for over two years. On Monday, Carlson offered the first glimpses of footage involving key figures from that day. Carlson concluded the footage proves that lawmakers and the media were "lying" about the events that took place on Jan. 6.

More science fraud=more money to fraudsters!-----PM2.5: Mass Killer or Mass Fraud? | Watts Up With That?

PM2.5: Mass Killer or Mass Fraud? | Watts Up With That? - Steve Milloy

  • EPA is proposing once again to tighten the National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) for PM2.5 for the reasons summarized by EPA, below. What is PM2.5 and does it kill people?

  • "Fine particulate matter in outdoor air, also called PM2.5, is the most toxic substance known to man. PM2.5 is responsible for 8 million, or one-in-seven deaths per year on a global basis. A single molecule can kill within just a few hours of inhalation.
  • Or at least that what environmental and health regulatory agencies around the world claim.
  • ...PM2.5 kills, in fact, no one. A point that is easily demonstrated and will be done so here.
 That we still must talk about PM2.5 is a testimony to the stubborn commitment of regulatory agencies to science fraud...

More Panic in D.C.: WH Spreads Despicable Lie About Jan. 6, Proving Tucker's Point - By Nick Arama
"...their lies about Jan. 6 are just shameless at this point, designed to deceive. 
They cannot be allowed to pass.
We saw Attorney General Merrick Garland talk about what happened “that day,” then saying “five officers died.”
  • That is completely untrue. No officers died that day, not one was killed. But what’s shameful is that even now, more than two years later, they’re still lying. And it’s not just Merrick Garland. The White House proved it was a “talking point” by repeating it themselves.

Here’s White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre.

Then Deputy Press Secretary Andrew Bates repeated the same talking point, so it wasn’t just KJP being KJP.
“We agree with the chief of the Capitol Police and the wide range of bipartisan lawmakers who have condemned this false depiction of the unprecedented, violent attack on our Constitution and the rule of law — which cost police officers their lives,” Bates said to Politico...

Hmmm, not what the media told us!-----Jan. 6 footage shows cops bringing QAnon Shaman to Senate floor

"Newly revealed surveillance footage from Jan. 6, 2021, shows two Capitol Police officers escorting Jacob Chansley, the behorned so-called “QAnon Shaman” who has come to symbolize the riot, through the halls of the Capitol and to the very door of the US Senate.
The footage aired on Tucker Carlson’s Fox News show Monday night shows the officers closely following Chansley as he wanders the corridors of the Capitol, bare-chested and wearing face paint and a luxuriant fur hat with Viking horns.
“Virtually every moment of his time inside the Capitol was caught on tape,” says Carlson, who was granted exclusive access by House Speaker Kevin McCarthy to 40,000 hours of surveillance footage from that day inside and around the Capitol, which has never been seen before by the public.
“The tapes show the Capitol Police never stopped Jacob Chansley. They helped him. They acted as his tour guides.”...

An attorney with the Southern Poverty Law Center was arrested for domestic terrorism in a group of 23 who allegedly violently attacked the future site of an Atlanta police training facility. Thomas Webb Jurgens, 28, was rounded up with the other violent protesters for throwing Molotov cocktails, fireworks, rocks, and bricks at the facility.

Fauci Wanted Universal Human Separation Forever

Fauci Wanted Universal Human Separation Forever - BY JEFFREY A. TUCKER 
"While millions were locked down, forbidden from going to events or even church, and the schools and arts were shut down, people kept asking a fundamental question: why is this happening, what is government doing, and what is the exit strategy? 
There were a number of possibilities.
  • Maybe it was to preserve hospital capacity and yet at that very time hospitals were furloughing nurses and parking lots were empty because they locked their doors to elective surgeries and routine checkups.
  • Maybe it was to buy time so that personal protective equipment and ventilators could be stockpiled and yet we later found that the ventilators killed many unnecessarily while stockpiles later sold for pennies on the dollar.
  • Or maybe it was to wait for a vaccine. That was the word on the street. Certainly vaccines had been in development since January 2020 if not earlier. One was coming. And the companies themselves clearly had huge influence on the regulatory agencies that later approved them and mandated their products through unusual means.
But the story is not entirely clear...

She speaks the truth. Dems not fond of truth.

 

Pre-Empting Equality - by Peter Venetoklis

Pre-Empting Equality - by Peter
"...Columbia University, one of the eight Ivy League schools that stand at the pinnacle of tertiary education in America (in reputation, at least), is permanently dropping the standardized testing requirement from its admissions process.
...Allow me to cynic-splain this action....
  • Columbia's Class of 2025's demographic mix is 54% white, 28% Asian, 20% Hispanic, 18% black, and 4% native American. Note the >100% tally, which reflects both the classification of Hispanics as "white" and the ability to choose more than one of these categories.
  • For the purposes of comparison, the US is 59% white-not-Hispanic, 19% Hispanic, 14% black, 6% Asian, and 1% native American. 3% report as multi-racial.
If Columbia's goal is to overweight minorities, it has succeeded...
So, why the big change in the admissions policy? Why eliminate a standardized metric?
Two words: Supreme Court...

Grid in a mess!-----DTE can’t tree trim its way to reliability

DTE can’t tree trim its way to reliability By James David Dickson
"After ice storms and thundersnow cause mass outages, DTE must admit: Burying power lines underground is the answer
Tree trimming is too small-scale a solution. 
  • Only burying power lines underground in Southeast Michigan would provide reliability despite ice, rain and wind. 
  • DTE will never trim enough trees to avoid mass power outages in Southeast Michigan.
...If trimming trees were the answer, wouldn’t we know it by now, with DTE spending $190 million per year doing it?
It would cost billions, up to $30 billion by one estimate, just in the DTE area. 
When one solution costs millions and the other costs billions, thinking small makes sense. 
But thinking small got us here. 
It’s not our path forward...

Sadly, I'd bet @amuse is correct.
