Diversity Training Disaster

Diversity Training Disaster - John Stossel
"All big American companies now require DEI training: diversity, equity and inclusion.
All big companies!
Really.
It sounds responsible. 
But it turns out DEI courses are often useless and sometimes racist.
  • First comes groveling.
My new video about DEI shows a conference that begins with a "land acknowledgement."

Michigan Is Headed Back to Rust Belt Poverty

Michigan Is Headed Back to Rust Belt Poverty - Stephen Moore
"...But then, starting in the 1970s, things went south -- in part because of the might of the unions that ran the state's political machine. 
That's when Michigan transitioned into the sad symbol of closed factories: the American "Rust Belt." 
  • Flint, Michigan, became a ghost town.
  • From the 1970s to the early 2000s, Detroit lost nearly half its population. 
  • Whole neighborhoods were bulldozed, and homes were selling for less than $10,000 as poor and minority residents fled the area's crime, lousy schools, high unemployment and political corruption.
If you traveled to Florida or Arizona, you saw lots of Michigan license plates.
But then, Michigan began to reform itself with tax cuts and leaner and cleaner government...

Defund-the-police Democrat calls for more police as her district continues brutal crime spiral: 'I feel betrayed by the department' - TheBlaze

Another Democrat has been confronted with the disastrous consequences of the policies she once championed. San Francisco City Supervisor Hillary Ronen announced last week that she is "begging" for more police officers for her crime-ravaged city, particularly in the district she oversees. This desperate plea comes just a few years after the Democrat called for the police to be defunded and suggested that half-measures amounted to a "slap in the face."

CNN anchor makes potent admission about evidence of Chinese money flowing to Biden family: 'Doesn't look good' - TheBlaze
"CNN anchor Erin Burnett admitted on Friday that new revelations about millions of dollars paid to the Biden family "doesn't look good."
What is the background?
...What happened on CNN?
On her CNN show, Burnett responded to the revelations by making an astute observation.
"It doesn't sound good," she declared.
"There's a guy whose name is John Robinson Walker, he gets $3 million from a Chinese-based company and proceeds to wire it out to a bunch of people named Biden," she continued. 
"One of whom is Hunter Biden, another one is a company that belongs to the president's brother, James Biden, and another amount of money to Beau Biden's widow, Hallie."
"That doesn't look good," she added...

No, they're an arm of government. Not your friend!

When Leaders Get Scared - by Stephen
"While it may look like the United States is being tough and forceful in Ukraine, the reverse is true. 
The US is showing incredible weakness, and it is wearing it on its sleeve.
  • ...as anyone could quickly grasp, expanding NATO is a liability for the United States and the other NATO members. By creating a border that is to be extended by thousands of miles without actually expanding NATO's military capabilities, is a disaster-in-waiting...
Indeed, perhaps the key accomplishment of Biden and his friends in Europe, has been to put huge sanctions on Russia
  • This has removed Russia as a trading, commercial, and resource partner for Europe, meaning the Russians have little to protect in Europe by way of investments and supplier and trade agreements
  • A second major consequence of US and EU sanctions on Russia is that Russia's strategic partnership with China has now expanded, and will continue to grow...
  • ...There are some indications that Taiwan may be looking for a way to accommodate China, lest the US not support them in crunch time as China moves more forces around the island. Former Taiwan President Ma Ying-jeou, from Taiwan's Kuomintang (Nationalist) party, once headed by Chang Kai-shek, is off to China, the first visit to the Chinese mainland by a Taiwan official since 1949...
In short, this is what happens when allies and friends see the handwriting on the wall. 
 How long will it be before NATO countries start to run for cover?

San Francisco's reparations plan will lead to this surprising outcome for Blacks like me | Fox News

San Francisco's reparations plan will lead to this surprising outcome for Blacks like me | Fox News

Moreover, the notion of reparations assumes that all white people benefited from slavery and have a moral obligation to pay reparations to all Black people. Such an assumption is both unfair and untrue, as not all White people benefited from slavery, nor do all Black people suffer from its legacy. This oversight from the left further illustrates the soft bigotry that accompanies their "solutions," to inequality. 

Not every person born Black in America needs, or wants, a liberal to put their arm around them and take care of them. I for one, am more than capable of taking care of myself, as are most of the Black people I know.

3 years ago American Thinker was the first to call out the fraud of Dr. Anthony Fauci and was viciously attacked by the WaPo, NYT other MSM outlets - American Thinker - By Peter Barry Chowka
"...At the time, the United States was in the first days of an unprecedented nationwide lockdown as a result of the pandemic...
Although Fauci, as director of the National Institutes of Health’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), had a four-decade-long history of questionable influence on the nation’s health care, the media in March 2020, both left and right, were largely swooning over him. Having reported on Dr. Fauci starting in 1985, however, I knew better.
...My AT blog had the provocative – but entirely justified – title “Anthony Fauci, the NIH's face of the coronavirus, is a Deep-State Hillary Clinton–loving stooge.”
  • The gist of the article was substantive: Fauci, in my opinion and based on the record that I cited, had presided over the creation of an enormous, sclerotic medical bureaucracy in response to the first politically correct disease in history, the gay AIDS “pandemic,” in the 1980s.
  • The AIDS-centric bureaucracy that he was largely responsible for grew to unprecedented proportions that eclipsed and crowded out research on more prevalent, but less trendy, diseases including diabetes, breast cancer, and heart disease.
  • In the early 2000s, AIDS (which resulted in only 2.5% as many deaths as cancer between 1982 and 2020) was still inexplicably the dominant preoccupation of the U.S. medical establishment...
