Randi Weingarten is an evil liar

Randi Weingarten is an evil liar - DAVID STROM
"Does the headline sound harsh?
It is accurate on both counts. 

• Randi Weingarten has been and remains an advocate for evil policies and is, indeed, a provable liar.

Consider her testimony before Congress.

(Pradeep, by the way, is a great account to follow on Twitter. As am I.)
For those of you who live in a cave and just turned on your computers for the first time, Randi Weingarten is the head of the American Federation of Teachers. 

She helped spearhead the movement to close down schools and keep them closed for as long as humanly possible...

THEY LIED!-----It's junk science

It's junk science - DAVID STROM

"One of the most influential studies on the value of treating gender-dysphoric patients with “gender-affirming” care has been “corrected.” 

Not retracted, quite, as the authors admit that their research and conclusions were flawed, but they don’t go as far as to assert it was bunk.

• It was, in fact, bunk. 

The Journal Public Discourse has a long and well worth reading article on why the research was terrible, and how they and others successfully pushed to get the correction. 

I encourage you to read it, although you may have to skip over some more technical criticisms regarding statistical methods.
As the critics asserted, once proper statistical methods were used the results turned out to be very different from the original claims...
The conclusion that gender-affirming care helps patients turned out to be wrong. 

Even the authors of the original study admit that now...

Media says voting threatens democracy - Don Surber

"The Jeff Bezos Post sent two reporters Grand Haven, Michigan, a town of 11,011 people and the county seat of Ottawa County. 

Their job was to do his newspaper’s version of a story in Politico in February, “What It Looks Like When the Far Right Takes Control of Local Government.”
The Jeff Bezos newspaper titled its entry in the hair-on-fire coverage of a western Michigan County’s politics, “In a thriving Michigan county, a community goes to war with itself.
“Ottawa County offers a glimpse of what happens when one of the building blocks of American democracy is consumed by ideological battles.”

One of the changes made was to the county’s motto “that sat atop the county’s website and graced its official stationery.”
The 186-year-old county adopted that motto — Where You Belong — six years ago.
The new one is Where Freedom Rings.
Freedom must be a threat to democracy, too...

Olympia School District to ax music classes for pushing 'white supremacy' - Katherine

• A Washington school district is planning to cut music classes it believes promote “white supremacy culture” and “significant institutional violence.”
• The Olympia School District — which is facing a budget shortfall of $11.5 million — voted last week to eliminate band and strings for fourth-graders in an effort to both save money and fight racism.
• School Board Director Scott Clifthorne admitted during the meeting that research proves music classes are “healthy for young minds,” but that they are disproportionately rolled out across the district’s 12 elementary schools...

"Nicholas Eberstadt is a political economist, demographer, American Enterprise Institute scholar, and an author.

More than 7 million prime working age men in America are not looking for work, and each year that number continues to grow. 

Given that unemployment is at a massive low, why are so many capable men checking out of the workforce and don't intend on coming back?

Report: Teachers' union under Randi Weingarten 'colluded' with Biden administration to keep schools shuttered and on CDC messaging - TheBlaze: 

Newly revealed emails detailed by the New York Post highlight how the American Federation of Teachers and its boss Randi Weingarten exerted significant influence over the Biden administration and shaped the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's school reopening guidance, which halted the full reopening of in-person classes. The damning revelations come just ahead of Weingarten's Wednesday testimony before the Congressional Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic.

Polls’ Representative Samples Often Merit Skepticism

Polls’ Representative Samples Often Merit Skepticism 

"When people read about a poll, they are often told something like this: 

• Pollsters call a random group of people. 
• Though small, we can infer this group is a representative sample of the U.S. population because it was selected randomly. 
• Then, if we know the sample size, we can calculate the margin of error, which helps us understand how likely the survey results are to capture reality.
• This Statistics 101 version frequently carries a disclaimer to the effect: “These findings come from a nationally representative sample of 2,000 Americans with a margin of error of plus or minus 2.2%.” 

Here is the uncomfortable truth. 

Though the disclaimer remains, nearly nobody does the textbook version of polling anymore...

School district replaces 'boy' and 'girl' with gender-inclusive phrases 'person who produces sperm' and 'person who produces eggs' in Vermont - TheBlaze

School district replaces 'boy' and 'girl' with gender-inclusive phrases 'person who produces sperm' and 'person who produces eggs' in Vermont - TheBlaze - CARLOS GARCIA

"A letter from a Vermont school district to parents expressed a policy change to use "gender inclusive phrases" in place of words like "boy" and "girl" in a curriculum unit about human reproduction.
The letter appeared on social media and went viral.

"...the letter from Founders Memorial School Principal Sara Jablonski.
"In an effort to align our curriculum with our equity policy, teachers will be using gender inclusive language throughout this unit. With any differences, we strive to use 'person-first' language as best practice," she added.

The letter outlined some examples of the new politically correct language.

• "Person who produces sperm in place of boy, male, and assigned male at birth," the letter explained.
• "Person who produces eggs in place of girl, female and assigned female at birth," she added...

Tucker Carlson ousted at Fox over speech stressing the importance of prayer and the evil nature of the forces besetting America, claims insider - TheBlaze

Tucker Carlson ousted at Fox over speech stressing the importance of prayer and the evil nature of the forces besetting America, claims insider - TheBlaze: 

Tucker Carlson may have been given the boot at Fox News over his emphasis on the importance of prayer and his suggestion that America is not presently afflicted by bad politics, but rather by the forces of evil. Carlson gave a keynote speech Friday at the Heritage Foundation's 50th anniversary gala in Maryland wherein he stressed that the old political binary fails to account for the division presently afflicting America. Instead, it can be better understood in theological or spiritual terms as a battle of good versus evil, suggested the 53-year-old.

'Did USAID Fund Coronavirus Research In Wuhan China?' "Should we be funding the Academy of Military Medical Research in China? ...Some of the research proposals in 2018 were the Wuhan Insitute of Virology asking for money to create a virus with a furin cleavage site. A SARS-like coronavirus with a furin cleavage site. That's exactly what COVID-19 turned out to be. So we want to know if there were other research proposals you either granted or denied that was in the same vain as creating viruses that could have become COVID-19. We can't tell because you won't give us information... I now have 25 Senators that have sent you a letter, and you aren't responding... You are being dishonest."
