The Tribune claimed today that there was a surge of children being treated with COVID-19 in the hospitals. The story said over 5,800 children had been hospitalized during a seven-day period in August, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Now, anyone looking at that should have thought that number of kids suddenly being hospitalized over a seven-day period — when kids are actually at lower risk — doesn’t make sense.
Of course, as the Tribune later had to admit, that number in a week was just flat-out false. They added a correction to their story that was a pretty significant correction — that that 5800 number was over the whole time of the pandemic, not in one week.
“An earlier version of this story overstated the number of children who have been hospitalized in Texas recently with COVID-19. The story said over 5,800 children had been hospitalized during a seven-day period in August, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. That number correctly referred to children hospitalized with COVID-19 since the pandemic began. In actuality, 783 children were admitted to Texas hospitals with COVID-19 between July 1 and Aug. 9 of this year.”
So you do the math. They stated that 5800 children were admitted over a seven day period. That amounts to 828.6 children a day. Instead the actual number of children being admitted is actually 19.6. That is a little bit of an overstatement. Well overstated by over 40 times to be more specific.
Meanwhile the CDC admitted the other day that they had errored in reporting Florida numbers, falsing showing them with record numbers of new Covid cases. But in fact, the number in question (27,000) that was used to attack Florida for setting all time highs was almost double the actual total. The CDC had problematically added multiple days into one day.
Ever wonder why these numbers are always overstated rather than understated.

"In actuality, 783 children were admitted to Texas hospitals with COVID-19 between July 1 and Aug. 9 of this year.”
I guess that doesn't seem like a large number to you. To me, it does. A number large enough to merit our concern.
How many were illegal immigrants just entering the country ?
Were they admitted to the hospital and then found to have Covid ?
Why doesn't the CDC provide broad, trustworthy data ?
Because they are a political hack organization
And that is very concerning
I guess that doesn't seem like a large number to you. To me, it does. A number large enough to merit our concern.
Of course. Because of your insatiable need to politicize it.
20 kids per day in a state the size of Texas with the major cities and metro areas it contains?
It's fucking nothing. A pimple on a gnats ass. But with the imbecile you installed in the white house failing on every single policy front - foreign, domestic, economic, border, Covid response, etc., - your desperate need to make a big deal out of this is completely understandable.
Why doesn't the CDC provide broad, trustworthy data ?
Because they are a political hack organization
Which is why it's completely logical to put the CDC in charge of federal housing policy.

U.S. border agents stopped more than 188,000 immigrants trying to cross the southern U.S. border in June, marking a 21-year high in monthly border
Vermont Democrat Party chair Bruce Olsson published a commentary recently proclaiming yet again that Republicans are “racist.” This is particularly rich since the Democrat party is the oldest and most enduring racist political party in history, and its racism continues to this day. Here are the facts:
The Democrat Party was founded in 1828. Its first national party platform, ratified during the 1840 Presidential election, stated: “ that all efforts by abolitionists or others, made to induce congress to interfere with questions of slavery… are calculated to lead to the most alarming and dangerous consequences, and that all such efforts have an inevitable tendency to diminish the happiness of the people… and ought not to be countenanced by any friend to our political institutions.”
The message was clear: the Democrat Party did not consider Black Americans to be “people” deserving of “happiness.”
That same language was in every national Democrat party platform for the next 16 years.
Democrat party leaders acted on their racist principles, committing high treason against their country and their fellow Americans between 1861-1865 in order to preserve the system of Black human bondage.
In 1868, the Democrat Party platform urged amnesty for the traitors who, during the Civil War, killed hundreds of thousands of Americans for the purpose of preserving slavery. The platform also called for “the abolition of the Freedmen’s Bureau; and all political instrumentalities designed to secure negro supremacy”:
In 1904, seventy-six years after its founding, the Democrat party’s platform complained about the Republican platform:
“The race question has brought countless woes to this country. The calm wisdom of the American people should see to it that it brings no more.
To revive the dead and hateful race and sectional animosities in any part of our common country means confusion, distraction of business, and the reopening of wounds now happily healed. We therefore deprecate and condemn the Bourbon-like selfish, and narrow spirit of the recent Republican Convention at Chicago which sought to kindle anew the embers of racial and sectional strife, and we appeal from it to the sober common sense and patriotic spirit of the American people.” . . .
Throughout most of the 20th century, Democrats condoned or excused policies of apartheid and disenfranchisement of Black Americans. Senate Democrats successfully filibustered a Republican led anti-lynching bill in 1934, and a Republican-led effort to ban the poll tax in 1940. At the time, the poll tax was so effective in the American South that only 3% of Black Americans were registered to vote there. Elected Democrats fought tooth and nail against anti-racist legislation, filibustering the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Voting Rights Act of 1965, and engaging in so-called “massive resistance” against school integration into the early 1970s. A century and half of racist policies vigorously supported by Democrat party leaders — no other political party in history comes close.

If even Republican governors issue immunization vaccine mandates for people over the age of 12, it will stand.
A band of Indiana University students who failed to overturn their school’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate at every turn received no more sympathy from Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett, who unceremoniously rejected their emergency application for an injunction without comment on Thursday.
“With a third ruling, now from the nation’s highest court, affirming Indiana University’s COVID-19 vaccination plan, we look forward to beginning fall semester with our health and safety policies in place,” the university’s spokesman Chuck Carney told Law&Crime in an email. “We are grateful to those who have stepped up to protect themselves and others; 85% of our students, faculty and staff are approaching full vaccination.”
Led by lead plaintiff Ryan Klaassen, the eight students argued that the vaccine mandates violated the equal protection clause of the Constitution, a theory that has failed before every court that heard it. The emphatic defeats had not been unexpected, since the Supreme Court has found vaccine mandates legal for more than a century.
Some crazy Republicans call Justice Amy Coney Barrett a traitor....

Scott, outside of this topic. I will link it. But it says exactly what I just said.
When government fails to act in the interests of its citizens, it’s their duty to take action. For 20+ years, the United States has seen failure of government through unrestricted illegal immigration, one-sided trade deals, uncontrolled spending, and failed foreign policy.
Predictably this has created a seething anger within the American citizenry. As was their duty, the citizens took action -- at the ballot box. They elected Donald Trump in 2016. President Trump didn’t create the anger, the anger created him.
While he made substantial strides in response to their grievances, his time in office was too short to fully institutionalize the necessary course corrections -- particularly with unprecedented resistance from the Deep State. The grievances of the citizenry remain unresolved.
Unfortunately, avenues of redress have continued to close. Our institutions are no longer providing equal protection, our freedom of expression has been curtailed, and even our vote has been undermined. These factors brought us to our current state -- a level of political tension not seen in generations. Traditional avenues of redress are under attack.
They don't say take arms, but seriously they want violence against the government.

Biden Shifts Pitch for His Economic Agenda

“The White House
is shifting its approach to selling President Biden’s $4 trillion domestic spending plans, as the administration responds to polling data suggesting the threat of inflation represents a potent political risk,” the Washington Post reports.
“While he still maintains inflationary concerns are exaggerated and short-lived, Biden is now taking pains to show he recognizes the public’s fears over rising prices while arguing his spending plans are best-suited to combat them. These public concerns helped fuel a dramatic one-month plunge in consumer confidence for early August, reported Friday by the University of Michigan.”

Biden Mulls Getting Tough on Vaccine Holdouts

“When the pace
of vaccinations in the U.S. first began to slow, President Joe Biden backed incentives like million-dollar cash lotteries if that’s what it took to get shots in arms. But as new coronavirus infections soar, he’s testing a tougher approach,” the Associated Press reports.
“The administration has taken steps toward mandating shots for people traveling into the U.S. from overseas. And the White House is weighing options to be more assertive at the state and local level, including potential support for school districts imposing rules to prevent spread of the virus over the objection of Republican leaders.
“The result is a precarious balancing act as Biden works to make life more uncomfortable for the unvaccinated without spurring a backlash in a deeply polarized country that would only undermine his public health goals.”

Former ambassador to Afghanistan blames Taliban surge on Trump 'delegitimizing' Afghan government
Stephen Proctor
Fri, August 13, 2021, 3:59 AM
Former U.S. Ambassador to Afghanistan Ryan Crocker appeared Thursday on Anderson Cooper 360, where he blamed former President Trump for the Taliban’s recent surge in the country. Trump had planned to meet with Taliban leaders and the Afghan president at Camp David in 2019. After the meeting was canceled, a U.S. representative for Afghanistan met with Taliban leaders in Qatar in February 2020, where both sides signed a peace agreement. It’s at that meeting that Crocker believes the current situation in Afghanistan was born. Not only were there no representatives from the Afghan government present at the meeting, but Afghanistan was asked to make certain concessions to the Taliban.
“In my view, we bear a major responsibility for this. Began under President Trump when he authorized negotiations between the U.S. and the Taliban without the Afghan government in the room. That was a key Taliban demand. We acceded to it, and it was a huge demoralizing factor for the Afghan government and its security forces,” Crocker said. “We pressed them to release 5,000 Taliban

The eviction ban has been upheld for now
WASHINGTON (AP) — A federal judge is refusing landlords’ request to put the Biden administration’s new eviction moratorium on hold, though she made clear she thinks it’s illegal.
U.S. District Judge Dabney Friedrich on Friday said her “hands are tied” by an appellate ruling the last time courts considered the evictions moratorium in the spring.
Alabama landlords who are challenging the moratorium are likely to appeal.
Friedrich wrote that the new temporary ban on evictions the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention imposed last week is substantially similar to the version she ruled was illegal in May. At the time, Freidrich put her ruling on hold to allow the administration to appeal.
This time, she said, she is bound to follow a ruling from the appeals court that sits above her, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.
If the D.C. Circuit doesn’t give the landlords what they want, they are expected to seek Supreme Court involvement.

In Houston, just 27 ICU beds are available. Overflow tents have been built at Lyndon B. Johnson Hospital to manage the overwhelming surge of patients.
"The ICUs are full. Every bed is accounted for, and in fact, we have patients waiting in our emergency center for ICU beds to open up... Some wait hours, some wait days, to be frank," Dr. Kunal Sharma, Chief of Emergency Services at LBJ Hospital, told CBS News' Janet Shamlian.

The Seditionist Handbook.
Is violence an essential element of the populist right’s political agenda? To claim otherwise has become increasingly difficult.
A manifesto co-authored by John Eastman—the Trump lawyer who was forced to resign as dean of Chapman University Law School for inflammatory remarks at the January 6th pre-insurrection rally—is instructive.
The piece is titled “How States Could Constitutionally Assume Abandoned Responsibilities of the National Government” and in it Eastman and co-author Stephen Balch begin by introducing a legal “doctrine” of their own design called “protective resumption.” What they mean by this is “a resumption of the states’ reserved police powers in the face of abdication by the federal government of its own primary responsibilities.”
PODCAST
Amanda Carpenter on Covid Compassion Fatigue
They begin by claiming that the quarantines and mask orders of the last 18 months have been “an exercise of state ‘police powers’ on a scale and scope unprecedented in America’s peacetime history.” This isn’t true, of course. The enforcement of Jim Crow laws and the eventual enforcement of desegregation—just to pick two obvious examples—were much larger expansions of state police power, deployed to opposing sides of the same issue.
Yet Eastman and Balch are not arguing from the libertarian position in favor of a more restrained government response to public health emergencies.
Instead, they see quarantines and mask orders as a useful precedent for an even greater expansion of state police powers, saying that their goal is “to point out what such robust assertions of police powers could achieve, constitutionally and politically, if put to different and more legitimate ends.”
What if, they wonder, we used these same emergency authorities for explicitly ideological purposes?
Thus begins a paranoid and reckless power fantasy that, if pursued, would assuredly lead to political violence, if not open civil conflict.
Helpfully, the authors do not attempt to hide their motivations. They make an explicit nod to the white nationalist “Great Replacement theory” by asserting that the Biden administration has “thrown open” the southern border as “part and parcel of a larger project to transform our civic order through demographic change.”
Because this is where the conservative intellectual movement is these days.

But they refuse bc their own members also are nervous to raise it. So they want GOP to bail them out.

Justice Amy Coney Barrett Denies to Hear Petition to Block Indiana University COVID-19 Vaccine Mandate

When President Trump appointed ACB to the Supreme Court, there was tons of excitement amongst conservatives.
However, that excitement has turned into disappointment with her rulings.

ACB had the task of reviewing an emergency petition filed by students at the University of Indiana.
Lawyers representing eight students urged the Supreme Court to block the school’s mandate for the experimental
Instead of referring the matter to the entire court, ACB denied the appeal and upheld the school’s vaccine mandate.

So for the first time in the history of economics...
Spending (and likely printing) well over 6 trillion dollars is supposed to curb and lower inflation. Exactly the opposite of what we are taught in Macro-Economics 101 and opposite to how our economy has reacted to any and all large deficit spending.

In a July 28 report appearing on bioRxiv, where the study awaits peer review prior to getting published, researchers in Japan are sounding the alarm on the C.37 variant, dubbed Lambda. And it’s proven just as virulent as Delta thanks to a similar mutation making them even more contagious.
The strain has been contained in 26 countries, including substantial outbreaks in Chile, Peru, Argentina and Ecuador.
“Notably, the vaccination rate in Chile is relatively high; the percentage of the people who received at least one dose of COVID-19 vaccine was [about] 60%,” the authors write.
“Nevertheless, a big COVID-19 surge has occurred in Chile in Spring 2021, suggesting that the Lambda variant is proficient in escaping from the antiviral immunity elicited by vaccination,” they warn.
The Lambda variant is thought to have emerged somewhere in South America between November and December 2020, and has since turned up in countries throughout Europe, North America and a few more isolated cases in Asia, according to GISAID data.

AUSTIN, Texas — The city of Laredo, Texas, has refused to take in migrants who have been bused in from elsewhere on the border after discovering 40% of them tested positive for the coronavirus, according to two local government officials.
“That was very high,” Laredo Mayor Pete Saenz said in an interview, referring to the infection rate among migrants dropped off by the Border Patrol last week. Laredo health authority, Dr. Victor Trevino, confirmed the numbers.
The 40% infection rate is the highest known positivity rate along the U.S.-Mexico border. Last week, McAllen, Texas, reported a 15% positivity rate among migrants released from custody.

Following the sales, the 10-year Treasury note yield TMUBMUSD10Y, 1.317% was at 1.09%, down around 10 basis points from its most recent high of 1.18% on Monday. Meanwhile, the 30-year bond yield TMUBMUSD30Y, 1.950% stood at 1.82%.
“It does present a good buying opportunity. But I’m not ready to put all my chips in,” said Rob Daly, director of fixed income at Glenmede Investment Management, in an interview.
When the 10-year yield sat at around 0.60% last year, investors had to weigh the limited potential gains from bonds against the larger losses faced from a disorderly selloff. This imbalance made it unattractive to hold long-term Treasurys, he noted.
The recent rise in yields has helped “create a better balancing act,” said Daly.
The interest rate is under 2%
Unless they get higher the risk of inflation will decline.
Wow, Biden catching up fast!

I actually agree with them because the landlords can't afford to cost millions.
The Supreme Court struck down part of New York's eviction ban on Thursday, leaving thousands of renters in the state at risk of being forced out of their homes.
"We could see eviction numbers like we've never seen before," said Rebecca Garrard, legislative director at Citizen Action of New York.
The U.S. Supreme Court has struck down at least part of New York's eviction moratorium, potentially leaving thousands of renters in the state at risk of being forced out of their homes.
The court's order Thursday focused on the state's policy of allowing tenants to self-attest that they've experienced a Covid-related hardship, rather than documenting the setback with evidence. "This scheme violates the court's longstanding teaching that ordinarily 'no man can be a judge in his own case,'" the majority wrote.
Five New York landlords and one landlords' association brought the challenge against the ban.
The decision could trigger a humanitarian crisis in the state, said Rebecca Garrard, legislative director at Citizen Action of New York.
"Given the sudden notice of this decision, we could see eviction numbers like we've never seen before," Gerrard said.
The statewide ban was supposed to be in effect through August, but now the entire protection is in jeopardy, she said, "If you've had a notice of eviction served within the last 30 days, you could be evicted today."
830,000 tenants in New York are behind on their rent, with an average debt of $4,000.
The ban was too broad and placed an "enormous burden" on landlords, said Olga Someras, general counsel at the Rent Stabilization Association of New York City.
Investors showed strong demand for an auction for $38 billion of 10-year notes and $24 billion of 30-year bonds this week.
LOL. If only you understood what you plagiarized alky.
The issue with the Vaccine ruling is the fact that there is legal precedent from when we mandated Polio vaccines. That is supposed to be the definition of conservative Judges. They let precedent rulings stand and apply that as their underlying logic.
As Scalia used to say, he made many decisions that he believed were "wrong" if it was up to his personal opinion, but had to be made because of the legal reasoning involved. It's not up to him to impose his opinion over the constitution or stares decisis.
This is something liberals (and even some conservatives) do not quite get. We don't expect the "conservative" judges to rule based on what "side" of the political spectrum a case is tied to.
To be clear, just because you see vaccine mandates as a liberal conservative issue, the legal questions are not the same thing.
I'm not an expert but from what I've read about and understood what it means.
Low interest on debt bonds means that inflation rates will not rise unless the interest rates rise.
But it said the investors were eager to buy them.
The fed has some power on this issue.
But outside of highly partisan information, the risk is quite low now

Unless, of course, Joe Biden's foolproof plan actually suddenly stops Covid in its tracks as promised?
Inflation will also affect interest rate levels. The higher the inflation rate, the more interest rates are likely to rise. This occurs because lenders will demand higher interest rates as compensation for the decrease in purchasing power of the money they are paid in the future.

If you replace Trump and The United States of America. It perfectly describes what I said before....
In America, economic freedom means that your job is often dependent on your loyalty to the regime, and where Trump-supportive oligarchs police their workforces for dissent. In America, representative government means an election system that the Republicans has so gerrymandered and rigged, he can win two-thirds of the parliamentary seats with less than 50 percent of the vote — and thereby amend the constitution to perpetuate his kleptocracy. In America, the judiciary has been so shamelessly packed, it is loyal first of all to Trump, whose power keeps increasing as a result of his gerry-rigged super-majority in Congress. And Orbà n himself appears motivated by nothing as much as the amount he can steal from his own citizens. Which is quite a pile of lucre.

The courts have also abdicated their duty relative to the 2020 election. The Supreme Court is too busy redefining the Constitution to be bothered with its defense. It was the final institution in a position to ensure adherence to laws and adjudicate allegations of fraud. Yet it simply declined to hear the cases. Protection of our voting rights was of no interest to the court.
In 2021 we have reached an impasse. Our government no longer represents our interests.
It's not hyperbolic, it's very dangerous..

Two voices on inflation rates
A White House official said focusing on how the president’s agenda will lower costs is meant to in part defang Republican attacks that new spending will fuel inflation, particularly given that the bulk of the spending in Democrats’ $3.5 trillion budget plan would occur well after next year.
“The President’s Build Back Better agenda will give American families relief from financial burdens that have been staggering for years … and from the moment he first proposed this during the campaign, he has made his case in those terms,” White House spokesman Andrew Bates said in a statement.
“He’s fighting to build on the record job creation he’s achieved and the fastest rate of economic growth in roughly 40 years with policies that both make paychecks go farther for the long haul and that simultaneously guard against inflation.”
The irony of the shift in strategy is that it comes at a time when some economic indicators suggest the pace of inflation may be cooling down — a trend Biden pointed to on Wednesday.
Prices are still up markedly from their lows in the pandemic’s early months, as the president’s stimulus and economic reopening lead to a surge in demand. Data released this week by the Bureau of Labor Statistics showed prices rose 5.4 percent in July compared with a year ago. Groceries have been inching higher for well over a year. Just from June to July, the cost of meats, poultry, fish and eggs climbed 1.5 percent. On Wednesday, the national average for a gallon of gas hit $3.19, a new high for 2021, according to AAA.
But the month-to-month data may show signs of a cool-down: Prices overall rose 0.5 percent in July compared with June. Used car prices jumped 10.5 percent in June, compared with May. But in July, they grew only 0.2 percent, compared with June.
[After months of tepid news, White House hopeful ‘rip-roaring’ economy is here]
The Federal Reserve and White House expect prices may keep climbing, so long as consumer demand rebounds faster than supply chains can catch up. Their prediction is that as supply backlogs have time to clear, inflation will settle back down closer to the Fed’s 2 percent annual target, perhaps next year.
But that message is increasingly difficult to stomach for households facing rising grocery bills, rent or airline tickets right now. Persistent shortages of semiconductors have squeezed the market for used cars and trucks, sending prices soaring 41.7 percent compared to last year.
Republicans say the price hikes are already hurting too many families and their pocketbooks. They have criticized Biden’s sprawling spending agenda for heating up the economy recklessly, pointing first to the $1.9 trillion stimulus plan passed in March and now to the $3.5 trillion budget plan moving through the Senate.
One of the measures watched closely by the Fed is not suggesting baked-in expectations for widespread, long-term price hikes. But another survey of consumer expectations, released by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, shows that households expect prices will stay high — well above the Fed’s 2 percent target — into next year.
Biden has increasingly sought to persuade the public that his efforts represent the best chance to lower high prices. He argued Wednesday that breaking up the largest agricultural producers — as part of his broader antitrust efforts — could curb “price gouging” that inflates the cost of groceries. He has said the infrastructure deal brokered with Republicans will make it quicker and easier to transport goods, which will reduce consumer prices. And he has increasingly pushed Democrats’ $3.5 trillion spending package — a proposal with major new spending to address health care, climate change, education, and other social priorities — as aimed at reducing families’ price pressures.
Julia Coronado, president of Macropolicy Perspectives who worked for the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, said the Biden administrations’ refined approach made sense by aiming to expand the amount of economic capacity — addressing supply-side concerns — rather than reducing the amount of spending support fueling consumer demand.
“They’re trying a new message: The message is, ‘We understand there’s inflation, and the right way to get at it is to invest in improving our supply chain, not pulling back on policy support for the economy.’ That’s a smart message,” Coronado said. “If you can relieve the pressure on these supply chains — not by hitting demand, but by improving infrastructure — you’re basically lifting the economy’s potential to meet that demand.”
But other experts said the inflation rhetoric reflects how many missed the extent of the political challenge posed by inflation.
“I think this reflects the fact that inflation has been higher and longer-lasting than the administration thought it would be or wants it to be,” said Adam Ozimek, an economist at Upwork. “There are economists who dismiss concerns about inflation, but clearly the administration does not agree with them. A lot of economists underestimated how big of a political problem this would be for the White House.”a

These people (economists?) who suddenly believe that up is down, black is white, and printing a few trillion dollars will lower inflation really appear to be trying extremely hard to talk themselves into believing their own nonsense.
But this is not rocket science. It is not that nuanced and if it takes someone 10,000 words to explain why the largest spending increase in real time dollars in the history of our country is not going to raise inflation, then perhaps you should take it with a grain of salt.

‘Fact-checking’ site Snopes admits multiple PLAGIARISM cases by its own co-founder and CEO
Snopes bills itself as “the internet’s definitive fact-checking resource” and a beacon of truth against “misinformation.” However, the website’s co-founder has just been caught publishing dozens of plagiarized articles.
David Mikkelson co-founded Snopes in 1994, and the website has become a key player in the online information wars in recent years. Its supporters see it as a bastion of level-headed truth against an onslaught of partisan “misinformation,” while its detractors see it as yet another biased liberal outlet masquerading as a neutral ‘fact-checker’.
However, nobody’s accused the site of outright plagiarism until now. In a statement on Friday, the site acknowledged that between 2014 and 2019, Mikkelson published “more than two dozen” stories lifted from other news sites, under either the pseudonym “Jeff Zarronandia” or the generic “Snopes Staff” byline. The plagiarism was uncovered following a tip by Buzzfeed reporter Dean Sterling Jones.
According to the memo, Mikkelson has now been suspended from editorial duties and labels have been attached to the articles containing plagiarized material.
In a separate statement, Snopes’ staffers condemned Mikkelson’s plagiarism, lamenting the “poor journalistic standards” he displayed. Mikkelson himself admitted to wrongdoing, explaining the plagiarism as “serious lapses in judgement.”

In anticipation of getting their fucking clocks cleaned, democrats are peddling this fresh pile of bullshit ;
Washington (CNN)The Biden administration is receiving regular intelligence reports indicating Russian efforts to interfere in US elections are evolving and ongoing, current and former officials say, and in fact, never stopped, despite President Joe Biden's warnings to Russian President Vladimir Putin over the summer and a new round of sanctions imposed in the spring.
Biden made deliberate mention of Russia's operations two weeks ago when he revealed in public remarks to the intelligence community that that he had received fresh intelligence about "what Russia's doing already about the 2022 election and misinformation" in his daily intelligence briefing that day.
"It's a pure violation of our sovereignty," Biden said at the time.
One of the people familiar with the matter confirmed that there have been recent intelligence reports about what the Russians are up to, particularly their efforts to sow disinformation on social media and weaponize US media outlets for propaganda purposes. There are some indications that Moscow is now attempting to capitalize on the debate raging inside the US over vaccines and masking, other sources told CNN.

About the author: Arnold Schwarzenegger was the 38th governor of California.
Earlier this week, I delivered a simple message: There is a virus here. It kills people. The only way you can prevent it is to get vaccinated, wear masks, and do social distancing.
Some people are complaining, “Well, my freedom is being kind of disturbed here.” Well, I told them, “Screw your freedom.” You have the freedom to wear no mask. But if you exercise that freedom, you’re a schmuck—because you’re supposed to protect your fellow Americans.
I’ll admit, calling people schmucks and saying “Screw your freedom” was a little much, even if I stand by the sentiment. But there is nothing that I’m more passionate about than keeping America great, and it’s the only subject that can make me lose my temper.
David Frum: Vaccinated America has had enough
I knew I’d be called a RINO, but that doesn’t bother me. Honestly, rhinos are beautiful, powerful animals, so I take that as a compliment. I anticipated being called a Nazi and a Communist. But I’ve got thick skin stretched over my metal endoskeleton, so I knew I could take it.
But some of the responses really worried me. Many people told me that the Constitution gives them rights, but not responsibilities. They feel no duty to protect their fellow citizens.
That’s when I realized we all need a civics lesson. I can’t help but wonder how much better off we’d be if Americans took a step back from politics and spent a minute thinking about how lucky we are to call this country home. Instead of tweeting, we could think about what we owe to the patriots who came before us and those who will follow us.
I am not an academic, but I can tell you that selfishness and dereliction of duty did not make this country great. The Constitution aimed to “promote the general welfare and secure the blessings of liberty for ourselves and our posterity.” It’s right there in our founding document. We need to think beyond our selfish interests.

“Many people insisted for months that this was obviously doomed and anyone who thought otherwise was a fool. When there’s a surprising outcome, good to take note and update your mental model of the world, at least a bit.” — Vox correspondent Andrew Prokop
Infrastructure could be the first sign of a new era of bipartisanship
“It’s not just about roads, bridges and broadband. This measure … could be so much more: the beginning of a beautiful friendship. Yes, Democrats and Republicans still disagree on a lot and have heated debates on the floors of Congress and off of it. But the $1 trillion infrastructure bill, which includes $550 billion in new spending, has politicos hopeful that the muscle memory of bipartisanship of yore is kicking in, setting the stage for more cross-aisle accomplishments.” — Susan Milligan, U.S. News & World Report
The two sides can agree when it will benefit all Americans
“This investment in infrastructure not only means more jobs and a better economic future, it also shows Congress can still tackle the nation’s problems together.” — Editorial, Seattle Times
Policy complicated, bipartisanship needed
“The simple truth is this: America’s public policy challenges will not fit neatly into the box of any political ideology. A nation as large and diverse as the United States simply doesn’t succeed by one side winning a narrow majority of votes and then imposing its will on the other. There’s no version of that story with a happy ending, no matter which side you find yourself on.” — Stephen Neely, South Florida Sun Sentinel
Bipartisanship is still the norm for a whole range of issues
“Congress does pass bipartisan bills on a regular basis, but they are typically much narrower measures or must-pass legislation that keeps the government open or the Pentagon funded. The path the infrastructure package still faces is a reminder of why more ambitious bipartisan deals can be tough.” — Andrew Duehren, Kristina Peterson and Andrew Restuccia, Wall Street Journal
Republicans aren’t as cynical as many pundits make them out to be
“No, Republicans will not automatically oppose everything any Democratic president supports. I thought that would be the case, or close to it, before President Joe Biden was elected. It was true of the pandemic-relief legislation, which Republicans could’ve bargained down to a smaller bill but instead unanimously opposed. This time, it was different.” — Jonathan Bernstein, Bloomberg

“A community in rural east central Mississippi is overwhelmed with COVID-19 cases, two weeks after it hosted the Neshoba County Fair that brought thousands of people who lived in cabins, attended shoulder-to-shoulder outdoor concerts and horseraces and listened to political speeches — including one by Republican Gov. Tate Reeves, who decried federal guidance on mask-wearing as ‘foolish.’”

For years, the debate over Big Tech and its threat to freedom has centered most prominently on free speech. At stake is whether or not conservatives, populists, or any free-thinking or independent-minded individual who objects to our Regime’s corrupt ruling class will be allowed to share their views on Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube, and even whether they will be allowed to create alternatives without being hounded out of business.
This battle is extremely important. But an arguably even more important fight concerns the financial ecosystem of the Internet, and on that front the situation is no less dire. Two weeks ago, PayPal abruptly announced a major new partnership with the Anti-Defamation League to investigate the financial transactions of its users:
PayPal Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: PYPL), in partnership with ADL (the Anti-Defamation League), today announced a new partnership initiative to fight extremism and hate through the financial industry and across at-risk communities. This is the latest effort by PayPal in combating racism, hate and extremism across its platforms and the industry.
Through this collaboration, PayPal and ADL have launched a research effort to address the urgent need to understand how extremist and hate movements throughout the U.S. are attempting to leverage financial platforms to fund criminal activity. The intelligence gathered through this research initiative will be shared broadly across the financial industry and with policymakers and law enforcement. [ADL]
This arrangement ought to arouse enormous concern, not just from conservatives, but anybody who cares about the danger totalitarian woke capital poses to the basic liberties of Americans. At a minimum, simple prudence requires that conservative groups do everything they can to decouple their financial well-being from PayPal’s services. But more generally, rank and file users should look elsewhere as well, and Republican lawmakers should take interest in what is unfolding.
As will soon become clear, PayPal’s deal with the disgraced ADL ought to be treated as seriously as a massive data breach or hack of its users’ information. Earlier this year a hacker going by the moniker “God User” posted information on over over 700 million LinkedIn profiles on the DarkWeb; in 2019 Facebook experienced a devastating data breach concerning over 500 million users, whose information appeared online. Paypal sharing its user data with a radical political organization with a possible history of illegal activity must be treated with no less seriousness. In fact, the situation is far worse, as PayPal is intentionally inflicting this vulnerability on its users; unlike the data breaches described above, PayPal seems to have no intention of fixing the situation.

First CDC said
vaccine “prevents all symptomatic infection and spread by 95%”
then “reduces severity of symptoms and spread… some”
then “reduces severe cases but not spread, so wear mask again!”
if CDC no longer claims it reduces spread, how can anyone justify mandating it?

‘The $3.5 trillion Communist Plan to Destroy America’: Trump calls the Dems’ budget an ‘assault on the American Dream’ that will ‘flood’ cities with migrants and raise taxes ‘like we have never seen’DailyMail.co.uk
Trump told Americans Dems passed the 4 a.m. bill ‘while you were all sleeping’ He took aim at millions of dollars allocated for immigration and climate changeDemocrats passed the bill, which is only a fiscal blueprint, on a party line voteFellow Republicans including Senators who voted ‘no’ also blasted the bill The ex-president was seen in New York City Tuesday for the first time this month
Donald Trump is lashing out against Joe Biden’s latest infrastructure victory after Senate Democrats passed the framework for a $3.5 trillion bill in a 50-49 party line vote around 4 a.m. Wednesday morning. ‘Good morning, America! While you were all sleeping, the Radical Democrats advanced a plan that will be known as the $3.5 trillion Communist Plan to Destroy America,’ the ex-president wrote in a late Wednesday morning statement.He called the legislation an attack against ‘our Nation, on our communities, and on the American Dream.’
Trump took aim at specific portions of the bill that would grant amnesty for millions of migrant workers and allocates $67 billion toward environmental initiatives.
‘It destroys our Borders and the rule of law by granting dangerous amnesty that will flood America’s beautiful cities. It will overwhelm our schools, and make our Nation less safe,’ the former president wrote.
He said it would ‘destroy’ US borders and told Americans it’s ‘time to wake up’
‘And don’t forget the crazy Green New Deal. America, you are being robbed in the dark of night. It’s time to wake up!’
Trump also claimed it ‘raises taxes like we have never seen, while also making many things you buy everyday more expensive (gas, groceries, and much more).’
Democrats led by Majority Leader Chuck Schumer were able to pass the bill after 14 grueling hours of debate. Republican opponents have called it everything from ‘Bernie’s budget’ to ‘a freight train to socialism.’

House Democratic moderates threaten Pelosi's strategy and demand immediate vote on infrastructure bill
(CNN)Nine Democratic House moderates are threatening to withhold their support for their party's must-pass budget resolution until Speaker Nancy Pelosi changes course and instead allows their chamber to first vote on the $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure plan the Senate approved this week.
The threat, outlined in a letter provided to CNN, could put Pelosi's plans in jeopardy to advance the budget resolution later this month since she can only afford to lose three votes from her caucus in the chamber that they narrowly control.
"We will not consider voting for a budget resolution until the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act passes the House and is signed into law," the letter to Pelosi said.

This is another reason than the Republican's authoritarin philosophy, and
because they think that climate change is a hoax and a Communist scam, we have to defeat them in the next election season.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) said Friday that July was the world's hottest month ever recorded, calling it an "unenviable distinction."
What they're saying: "In this case, first place is the worst place to be," NOAA administrator Rick Spinrad said in a statement. "This new record adds to the disturbing and disruptive path that climate change has set for the globe."
The big picture: July featured an extraordinary series of climate change-related disasters, from multiple heat domes that shattered temperature records in North America, Europe and Asia, to devastating wildfires in Siberia, the Mediterranean, and the American West.
Last week, the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change issued the most comprehensive climate science analysis since 2013, finding that global warming is playing a detectible, growing role in extreme weather and climate events, and noting the world is rapidly nearing the Paris Agreement's temperature target of holding warming to 1.5°C (2.7°F) above preindustrial levels by 2100.
Context: In the IPCC report, scientists analyzed global temperatures starting back to 1850 and used computer models to observe how temperatures would change solely based on natural variability, which they then compared with moderns that incorporate human influences.
Overall, the data proved, once again, that climate change is man-made.
By the numbers: The combined land and ocean-surface temperature around the world was 1.67°F above the 20th century average. The NOAA said it was the hottest month since instrument record-keeping began in 1880, 142 years ago.
The previous record was set in July 2016, which was then tied in 2019 and 2020, per NOAA.The global land-surface temperature was the highest-ever recorded for July, at an unprecedented 2.77 degrees F (1.54 degrees C) above average, surpassing the previous record set in 2012, per NOAA.Asia saw its hottest July on record, beating the earlier record set in 2010, a year that featured a heat wave that killed tens of thousands. Europe had its second-hottest July — tying with 2010 and trailing behind July 2018.
They will call the NOAA another deep state conspiracy theorists to destroy capitalism.
Climate change happen at the end of the ice age.
Thank God.
In particular, is the risk of inflation a reason for Democrats to scale back their plans to invest in America’s future?
No, no, 3.5 trillion times no.
Much of the media coverage of the budget resolution just approved by the Senate on a party-line vote — a resolution that lays the foundation for $3.5 trillion in new spending — suffers from two common problems in fiscal reporting: lack of quantitative context and failure to distinguish clearly between spending increases and fiscal stimulus, which aren’t necessarily the same thing.
On the first point, yes, $3.5 trillion is a lot of money. But this is spending intended to help rebuild the U.S. economy — and the U.S. economy is enormous. Bear in mind that we’re talking about a long-term spending plan, under which the money would be gradually disbursed over a decade. And America’s G.D.P. over that decade is likely to be in the vicinity of $300 trillion — the Congressional Budget Office says $287.7 trillion.
So ignore headlines that describe the plan as “massive” or “enormous.” It’s a plan that could make a big difference to many Americans’ lives and help build a better future. But it’s only a bit over 1 percent of G.D.P. That wouldn’t be enough to cause serious inflation problems even if all of the spending were paid for with borrowed money.
And the budget resolution doesn’t envision pure deficit spending. That is, it isn’t like the American Rescue Plan, earlier this year, which was financed entirely with debt.
ADVERTISEMENT
On the contrary, Democrats are proposing to pay for most of the new spending with new taxes on the wealthy (plus collecting the taxes the wealthy owe but haven’t been paying). And this means that higher spending on roads and child care would be offset by lower spending on superyachts and helicopters to the Hamptons. In other words, if you’re worried that the Democratic plan would overstimulate the economy, bear in mind that it would provide less stimulus than the headline spending numbers might suggest.
But if the plan isn’t about stimulus, what is it about? Mainly investment — and that reduces the inflationary risks even further. Spending on physical infrastructure, both in the bipartisan bill the Senate has already passed and in the likely future Democrats-only bill, would alleviate the supply bottlenecks that have played a big role in recent inflation, while making workers more productive.
What about spending on “human infrastructure”? There’s strong evidence that aiding families with children will make America richer and more productive in the long run, but to be fair, those benefits would take a long time to materialize. Federal support for child care and universal pre-K would, however, also yield much quicker results, in particular helping more women enter the paid work force. This would expand the economy’s capacity, which is exactly how you want to fight inflation if you can manage it.
So what’s all this about? I don’t know whether people like Joe Manchin expressing anxiety about inflation are truly misinformed or are just trying to signal that they’re to the right of their colleagues.
If they’re sincerely worried about inflation, I’d urge them to have their staffs do the math. Anxiety about the inflationary impact of public investment just doesn’t make sense if you work through the numbers.
If it’s just signaling, well, OK, politics is what it is. But I’d urge them to find a way to send their signals without undermining their party — and their country.
For the fact is that America desperately needs to invest in its future — both in hard assets like roads and bridges and in its people, especially its children. And there are no good economic reasons not to make those investments. Debt isn’t a problem given low interest rates; inflation wouldn’t be a problem given the economy’s ability to absorb higher government spending.
Build we can, and build we must.
A guy who knows more about inflation than kputz.

Sleepy Joe and The United States on Friday reported almost a million new COVID-19 vaccinations from the previous day’s total, the biggest one-day tally for vaccinations since early July.”
“The number includes 576,000 people getting their first dose of the vaccine.”
This is why we are blessed to have Sleepy Joe Biden as the President
White House chief of staff Ronald Klain said in a post on Twitter Friday that Covid vaccinations had reached their highest 24-hour total since before July 4, with 918,000 doses administered and 576,000 newly vaccinated, up from 821,000 and 565,000 respectively last Friday. almost 400,000 more people are saved
This comes in a week that has seen reported Covid case counts at the level of November 2020 and a seven-day average of more than 140,000 cases per day, according to NBC News' tally.
"Vaccine requirements and incentives are starting to pay off — as well as the tragedy of seeing so much needless illness and loss due to Delta's impact on the unvaccinated," Klain wrote.
The 900,000-plus doses administered is the highest total reported in a day since 1.1 million doses in the U.S. were reported July 3, according to figures from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. That's up from a low of about 243,000 doses administered July 2

The Sunday Funnies have already started!
Former president Donald Trump began his Friday by issuing a statement asking Americans: “DO YOU MISS ME YET?”
The tweet was posted by spokesperson Liz Harrington because the one-term, twice-impeached ex-commander-in-chief was banned from Twitter for his role in the 6 January violent insurrection at the US Capitol.
In the statement, Mr Trump listed the challenges facing the US — some exaggerated — before asking if Americans if they wished he was still president.
"Tragic mess in Afghanistan, a completely open and broken Border, Crime at record levels, oil prices through the roof, inflation rising, and taken advantage of by the entire world,” he wrote. “DO YOU MISS ME YET?"
Putting the unhinged use of all caps aside, Twitter users were quick to mock Mr Trump and remind him of his own failings as president — namely, 600,000 deaths from Covid-19 through a lack of leadership on his part.
“600,000 dead Americans could not be reached for comment,”
The United States on Friday reported almost a million new COVID-19 vaccinations from the previous day’s total, the biggest one-day tally for vaccinations since early July.”
“The number includes 576,000 people getting their first dose of the vaccine.”
The loony toons believe.
Washington (AFP) - The US Department of Homeland Security issued a new terrorism threat advisory on Friday ahead of the anniversary of the September 11 terror attacks and amid a resurgence of the coronavirus pandemic.
The National Terrorism Advisory System Bulletin said the United States faces a "heightened threat environment" from both domestic terrorists "and those inspired or motivated by foreign terrorists and other malign foreign influences."
It cited increased use of "online forums to influence and spread violent extremist narratives and promote violent activity."
The new advisory updated a January alert following the attack on the US Congress by supporters of then-president Donald Trump, when DHS said the country faced "increasingly complex and volatile" threats from anti-government and racially motivated extremists, often stirred up by online influence from abroad.
The bulletin had already been amended in May, with DHS warning violent extremists could exploit the easing of Covid-19 restrictions to conduct attacks.
"Extremists may seek to exploit the emergence of Covid-19 variants by viewing the potential re-establishment of public health restrictions across the United States as a rationale to conduct attacks," the DHS advisory said, adding that "pandemic-related stressors... may contribute to more violence this year."
Despite a rapid vaccination program, coronavirus case numbers have increased sharply in recent months in the United States due to the spread of the Delta variant, prompting new health measures.
The advisory, which expires on November 11, also noted that in the lead-up to the 20th anniversary of the September 11 attacks, the Yemeni branch of Al-Qaeda, Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), had put out an English-language version of its propaganda "Inspire" magazine for the first time in over four years.
This "demonstrates that foreign terrorist organizations continue efforts to inspire US-based individuals susceptible to violent extremist influences," DHS said.
The United States, which considers AQAP the terror group's most dangerous branch, has carried out a campaign of drone strikes against its fighters in Yemen since soon after the 9/11 attacks.
DHS was established after 9/11 and regularly issues terrorism threat advisories.
They are watching your crazy website.

The Wall Street Journal reports
After a 2020 rife with economic uncertainty, 2021 is shaping up to be a very different story.
A steady supply of COVID-19 vaccines, a $1.9 trillion COVID-19-related stimulus package and stronger earnings growth forecasts are driving great expectations for the U.S. economy. “2021 is likely to be a boom year for global and U.S. economic growth,” says Michael Collins, Managing Director and Senior Portfolio Manager, PGIM Fixed Income.
Of course, boom years often conjure images of central bankers pulling levers to cool an overheating economy. That’s a key reason why bond yields jumped over the last few months, with the yield on the 10-year Treasury note rising from below 1% in late December to over 1.7% by mid-March.
But Collins doesn’t expect a fast-growing economy to spur swiftly rising inflation and interest rates. To the contrary, he expects economic growth to moderate after a 2021 rebound, for reasons including an aging population, shrinking labor force and growing public- and private-sector debt.
That environment is likely to help keep inflation and interest rates in check, Collins says. As a result, he’s skeptical of the Federal Reserve’s long-term goal of 2.5% for the federal funds rate, its key short-term interest rate. “We think the Fed could get the fed funds rate to 1% or slightly above that over the next five years, but it would be difficult for them to hit their target of 2.5%,” he says.
If inflation and interest rates remain low for years to come, as Collins expects, then bond investors need to be diligent in their search for attractive fixed income opportunities.
STILL LOWER FOR LONGER
Collins and his colleagues at PGIM Fixed Income have maintained low-rate, low-inflation projections for decades. He acknowledges that most of their peers on Wall Street don’t share their view. “We’re used to being the contrarians on this issue,” he says.
Collins is confident the Fed will move cautiously, given mounting levels of public and private debt. A jump in interest rates could lead to seismic levels of financial stress as the government, corporations and consumers face larger debt payments. “I think if the fed funds rate went to 2.5%, so much money would have to be allocated to servicing debt that it would cause a collapse in economic activity,” he says—and central bankers won’t take that chance.
Furthermore, Collins expects inflation to average less than the Fed’s long-term goal of 2%, pulled down by aging demographics and technological advances.
I'm right!
Everyone should know by now that the CDC says and does only what the Biden administration and his union allies tell it to say. We cannot trust a word that Fauci or CDC director Dr. Rochelle Walensky says — not one word. The WHO is under the effective control of the CCP, so is equally untrustworthy. We should all realize by now that Fauci, Dr. Francis Collins, and the doctors who show up on CNN and the networks are government apparatchiks who say what they are told to say and what benefits them. Not one of them can utter an anti-vax word. Fauci owns numerous patents on both viruses and the drugs being pushed, and being a patent man, what we see of it now is that the existing therapeutics are disparaged. After all, no one would make money on those two old off-patent drugs HCQ and ivermectin.
People can meander through the articles, essays and videos linked above and decide for themselves who and what makes sense and wonder why these voices have all been if not erased, then hidden from the casual news viewer. Why have non-professional twenty-somethings been ordered to block them from the social media sites, serving as the establishment's useful idiots?
The most serious question though is, what if a few of them, some of them, or even all of these dissenting doctors are right about the vaccines, COVID treatments, the variants, etc.? What if they are?
What if the millions of Americans who have masked, rushed to be jabbed, have had their kids vaxxed and masked did so with faulty, insufficient information as to the truth of these experimental injections that are not actually vaccines?
They were not adequately informed as to the possible side-effects or any potential long-term consequences? If that is the case, if the vaccines are, as some or even all of these shadow-banned doctors believe, exacerbating existing co-morbidities, damaging hearts and other organs, affecting fertility, causing miscarriages, while the TV docs tell us they are safe for pregnant women, then half of the American population is in for a shock if not some serious disappointment and accompanying medical crises.
The people at VaccineTruth2 have made an offer:
We are willing to enter into a written $1M bet contract w/anyone in the world. We bet $1M that over 10,000 Americans have been killed where the vaccine elevated the primary symptom of their death. Court of law decides if we disagree. $ escrowed both sides. Any takers?
This certainly suggests that, whoever these folks are, they too believe the vaccines have made death more imminent for many. Let us hope the naysayers are wrong.
But what if they are right?
Hidden in the so called $3.6 trillion bill is a Democratic plan to eliminate the suburbs.
Our Founders recognized property rights as the basis for liberty and wealth creation. They also viewed local authorities as central to the principle of representative government. Decentralized and bottom-up by nature, local governments best serve and empower citizens. Plus they can leverage local resources and capital and provide services keyed to specific local needs. But with the advent of Agenda 21–focused entities, local governments are being pressured to comply with "smart growth" programs. Zoning, once the preserve of local government, is being wrested from that arena: across the nation, suburban and rural single-family homes are being targeted for elimination, to be replaced by urban, government-controlled housing with strict energy regulations.
Will that mean, that like Mother, you could be taken away for either using too much electricity or not generating enough? There is reason to believe that the taking away of local powers could be the edge of the sword. Eventually, individuals — prized above all by our Founders — will be unable to freely choose how and where to live. The agenda is for a global governance system to end the nation-state, sever national and state borders, and end the ability of individuals to control their fate.
The Biden administration, with its proposed trillion-dollar infrastructure package, aims to federalize zoning laws as part of the Green New Deal, perhaps the most comprehensive program toward full implementation of Agenda 21/CBD. The suburbs will be eliminated. The uniquely American dream of a house with a white picket fence and a backyard for a Fourth of July barbecue will no longer exist.
And the nightmare of the novel may eventually come to pass, with the proposed high-rise apartments packed with people forced off their own land to allow "Grizzlies in Chihuahua" to have an unbroken passage to "Grizzlies in Alaska," as the Wildlands Project envisages. In this state of serfdom, Americans will have no say over their lives in the Land of the Once Free.
The "Green New Deal" as California burns in record numbers will eventually eliminate private property.

Mark Levin has a new book
Levin concludes the book with a call to action and an exhortation for all freedom loving Americans to become involved. No one in this battle is peripheral. Energy and ingenuity are required to win one mind at a time by exposing the counter revolution as corrupt, illegitimate, and an anathema to the great American experiment. The author lists a comprehensive list of solutions and strategies to defeat the menace of American Marxism.
An example of Levin’s call to action transpired when a small group of retired military officers formed STARRS, a group whose primary mission is to educate the public about racism and radicalism in the military. The precipitating event occurred in 2020 in the form of a video published on the United States Air Force Academy Football Team’s Facebook Account that supported Black Lives Matter. The staff identified themselves not as private citizens but as members of the Academy’s bowl winning football team. The video’s message was confrontational, emotionally charged, and inconsistent with the military’s traditional apolitical role. To no avail, a number of Academy graduates approached the coaching staff and Superintendent, requesting the video be removed, but the request was denied.
To avoid embarrassing the Academy, the future STARRS President along with a number of retired senior officers requested the Air Force Inspector General (IG) to intervene. They accurately contended that the political nature of the videos expressly violated Air Force regulations. The IG ruled the video was not political and could remain on Facebook. Once again the Superintendent was asked to take down the video, but he opted to leave it place and expressed his support of the message conveyed in the video.
With no other recourse and deeply concerned about CRT’s poisonous effect on the Air Force Academy and the U.S. military, STARRS was born. In May 2021 the organization galvanized around Lt. Colonel Mathew Lohmeier, a 2006 USAFA graduate
and member of the Space Force, when he was relieved of his command after publishing the book Irresistible Revolution, which questioned the pervasiveness of Neo Marxist based race and diversity programs in the Air Force. For alerting the public to the dangers of inculcating CRT doctrine into the military, Lt. Colonel Lohmeier’s commanders punished a hero and denied the Air Force of one of its most talented and promising future leaders. Ironically, the Air Force Academy administration, which publicly proclaims its commitment to diversity and openness to academic debate, refused to make Irresistible Revolution available in the Academy library, ostensibly due to the controversial nature of the book’s subject matter.
As Levin points out, CRT is being taught at all the United States military academies with willful approval of administrators.
Parents are unaware of these programs and assume faculty members do not harbor or promote Marxist sympathies. This summer Air Force Academy Basic Cadets received a copy of activist George Takei’s book, They Called Us Enemy. The 200 page comic book is written at the 12 -17 year old reading level and is sanctioned as part of a preferred reading list by the Academy leadership. The book describes Takei’s childhood experience in a Japanese internment camp during World War II. The author makes no attempt to remain politically neutral and ignores FDR’s role in the establishing the camps while openly equating U.S. border security with the internment facilities. The Dean of the Faculty is on record extolling the book’s gravity, while in a written statement, the Superintendent described it as “compelling.” During last week’s Acceptance Day Ceremony with cadets, family members, and the general public in attendance, the Dean and a faculty member doubled down on the narrative. They announced continued support of Takei’s book and defended the decision by claiming today’s cadets are more curious than their predecessors. Many parents were incredulous and rightly questioned the wisdom of exploiting the Academy’s
superior-subordinate hierarchy by targeting the Academy’s most junior members with activist, political literature.
Without reservation we at STARRS recommend American Marxism. The book reminds us of our duty to expose the furtive nature of CRT indoctrination at the Academy and the complicit role of influential members of the faculty and administration. To ensure transparency at the Academy, several members of Congress and a number of anonymous parents and cadets are suing to have the Board of Visitors reinstated. As Mr. Levin recommends, Freedom of Information Act requests have been submitted to the Academy to better understand processes affecting the institution. The members of STARRS are staunch defenders of a traditionally enforced Honor Code, and all of us associated with the group are bound in our guiding principles to not lie, cheat, or steal, nor tolerate anyone among us who does. Our mission is clear: educate the public regarding racism and radicalism in the military. There is no finer resource for understanding these threats than those described in American Marxism.

The loony toons are in charge of the Republican party now and????
The only loony toons we see here is from Roger.
CommonSense is correct.
Keep Joe's words in mind now and in the coming weeks as ports in China have and will continue to close.
"Biden said of China. “I mean, you know, they’re not bad folks, folks. But guess what? They’re not competition for us.”
Again the goat fucker shows us all why he is an unemployed trump slurper without a clue!!!!!!!! BWAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
Our idiot governor is recommending regeneron for all those sick with covid as treatment....Interesting....at 1500 bucks a throw.....wonder how he will pay for it let alone get enough for all!!!!!!!
Gee another shocking set of data....July was the warmest month ever recorded!!!! I guess all those fake fires and droughts out west are just a little perturbation and will not be a long term problem!!!!!!

It’s official: July was Earth’s hottest month on record
August 13, 2021
July 2021 has earned the unenviable distinction as the world’s hottest month ever recorded, according to new global data released today by NOAA’s National Centers for Environmental Information.
“In this case, first place is the worst place to be,” said NOAA Administrator Rick Spinrad, Ph.D. “July is typically the world’s warmest month of the year, but July 2021 outdid itself as the hottest July and month ever recorded. This new record adds to the disturbing and disruptive path that climate change has set for the globe.”
Our dumb fuck governor must be a UGA graduate with this level of stupidity!!!!!! He is the same asshole who last week blamed the spike on illegal aliens.....what a sorry sack of shit of a leader he is!!!!!

In Florida, there’s hurricane season, lobster season and now, according to Gov. Ron DeSantis, “covid season.”
“This is our covid season,” the Republican governor told reporters last week when asked about the state’s record-breaking surge in infections. “We
asked about the state’s record-breaking surge in infections. “We thought we would see an increase. I don’t know that we thought we would necessarily see this many positive tests.”
DeSantis has argued that the recent record-breaking rise in new coronavirus cases and hospitalizations was unavoidable as temperatures rise and more people gather indoors, denying that easing restrictions and an uptick in tourism led to the surge.
DeSantis criticizes masks, restrictions as coronavirus roars to record levels in Florida
But the claim that the time of year has a greater impact on transmission than mitigation measures such as mask mandates and social distancing
The Hill reports how the Delta variance took over.
The delta variant has overtaken the U.S. in a matter of weeks as it spreads around the world in what President Biden’s chief medical adviser Anthony Fauci called a “global outbreak” of the strain.
The highly contagious variant of COVID-19 is considered at least two times more contagious than the previously dominant alpha strain, and experts say the increased transmissibility has likely fueled the surge in COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations and deaths nationwide.
But much is still unknown about delta as scientists scramble to better understand the strain.
Here’s what we know about the delta strain and how it blunted earlier momentum in the fight against the coronavirus.
Delta is more transmissible than previous COVID-19 strains
Delta’s contagiousness is considered key to its domination, having spread to at least 117 countries after first being detected in India. Like other viruses, COVID-19 is evolving, particularly through unplanned mutations.
A study from the United Kingdom in May suggested the delta strain could be 60 percent more transmissible than the alpha variant, which was already more contagious than the original strain.
But experts are split on that figure, with some saying delta could be more transmissible and others saying it could be less.
"You don't necessarily want to attribute that all to the virus. You know, a lot of it may reflect the people as well,” said David Dowdy, an associate professor of epidemiology at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.
Researchers aren’t certain about what makes the delta variant more transmissible, but there are some clues.
Michael Farzan, head of the Department of Immunology and Microbiology at Scripps Research, said one of the variant’s advantages is that it can more strongly attach to a certain receptor when spreading in the body.
"This is one of the reasons why the virus ... in a person gets made at a higher level, meaning that there's a lot more being spit out or coughed out, meaning that it's more likely to hit the next person," he said.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has its own figures illustrating how the strain became so prevalent this summer. The agency’s latest projection is that 97.4 percent of all coronavirus cases come from all the different lineages of the delta variant, as of the week ending last weekend.
That marks an astronomical increase from the 1.6 percent estimated at the beginning of May and the 14.1 percent from the beginning of June.
Most people infected with COVID-19 at this point won’t know for sure whether they contracted the delta strain since available testing doesn’t make the distinction between strains — it only shows whether the virus itself is present.
It has a higher magnitude of viral loads
Health experts are examining the delta variant’s viral load, the measure of how much virus a person carries and can potentially transmit, compared to previous COVID-19 strains.
A study from China suggested that the strain’s viral load could be more than 1,000 times higher than the original strain, which Fauci on Thursday said “is a mechanistic reason why you have such a tremendous increase in transmissibility.”
Basically a higher viral load can make it more likely that an infected person can “shed” the virus, allowing someone nearby to contract it.
“If a little droplet that you sent out, it has more particles and that means it's more likely to infect the next person over and it's more likely to infect the next person over more times,” Farzan said.
Dowdy of Johns Hopkins cautioned that other variables, including people’s behavior, may be influencing how scientists understand delta’s viral load. With more people relaxing their COVID-19 precautions and interacting with others indoors, those same people could contract more of the virus than they might otherwise.
A study of a Massachusetts outbreak indicated that delta led to fully vaccinated people having a similar viral load compared to the unvaccinated, sparking the CDC to update its mask guidance late last month.
The outbreak on Cape Cod, where nearly three-quarters of confirmed cases were among fully vaccinated people, suggested that vaccinated people could potentially transmit and spread the delta variant. But researchers said at the time that microbiological studies would be needed to confirm whether vaccinated individuals can transmit the strain.

Politics is a strange world
Lindsey Graham's friends stunned by his continued devotion to Trump: 'He's terrible for Lindsey'

President Donald Trump and Sen. Lindsey Graham
In a deep dive into the career of Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), friends of the high profile Republican expressed dismay that he has tied himself so close to Donald Trump just a few years after calling the former president "a race-baiting, xenophobic bigot."
Report Advertisement
The report notes that the South Carolina Republican has occasionally had harsh words for Trump -- including criticizing him after the January 6th Capitol riot -- but continues to return to the fold even though it hurts the Republican Party and his own reputation.
"Mr. Graham's reaffirmed devotion has come to represent something more remarkable: his party's headlong march into the far reaches of Trumpism," the report states. "That the senator is making regular Palm Beach pilgrimages as supplicant to an exiled former president who inspired the Capitol attack and continues to undermine democratic norms underscores how fully his party has departed from the traditional conservative ideologies of politicians like Mitt Romney, Liz Cheney and Mr. Graham's close friend John McCain."
In an interview, Graham admitted that he is attempting to help Trump reform his image, stating, "What I say to him is, 'Do you want January the 6th to be your political obituary? Because if you don't get over it, it's going to be.'"
Friends of Graham on both sides of the aisle are sympathetic to his loyalty to the president who lost the White House, the Senate and the House in four years, while at the same time lamenting that the South Carolina Republican doesn't seem to understand the damage he is doing to his own reputation in the process.
According to Mark Salter, the ghostwriter of Graham's autobiography, "Trump is terrible for the country, he's terrible for the Republican Party and, as far as I'm concerned, he's terrible for Lindsey."

Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) said he considers Graham a close friend before warning, "Lindsey is playing high-risk politics. He is pinning the hopes of the Republican Party on a very unstable person."
The report goes on to note that Graham -- since Trump lost the election -- has taken to playing to both sides, with the Times reporting, "In the days following the election, he scrambled to stay on Mr. Trump's good side, publicly urging him not to concede until he had exhausted all his legal challenges and listening calmly on late-night phone calls as the president raged about a stolen election. He even wrote a $500,000 check to aid Mr. Trump's legal defense."

"But privately he was already reaching out to Mr. Biden and counseling Mr. Trump to ramp down his rhetoric. And he steadfastly refused to appear at news conferences with Mr. Trump's legal team or repeat their false claims — which annoyed the president and infuriated his son Donald Jr., always a Graham skeptic, retweeting stories with a "#whereslindsey" hashtag when he felt the senator was not standing up for his father," the Times reported
Statement by Press Secretary Jen Psaki on Eviction Moratorium
AUGUST 13, 2021STATEMENTS AND RELEASES
Throughout the pandemic, preventing evictions and keeping people in their homes has been a proven way of slowing the spread of COVID-19.
The Administration believes that CDC’s new moratorium is a proper use of its lawful authority to protect the public health. We are pleased that the district court left the moratorium in place, though we are aware that further proceedings in this case are likely.
The President continues to call on State and local elected officials and judges to issue local eviction moratoriums and move aggressively to distribute the $46.5 billion in emergency rental assistance funds that are available through the bipartisan COVID relief act that Congress passed in December 2020, and through the President’s American Rescue Plan that was enacted in March 2021. And, the President calls on landlords to seek out rental assistance and not evict tenants from their homes, and echoes Attorney General Garland’s calls for state and local courts to implement policies to discourage eviction filings until landlords and tenants have sought emergency rental assistance funds.

BWAAAAAAPAAAAAA!!!! Sure goat fucker....in your little dream world of stupidity!!!!
The topic of reparations came up a few summers ago over drinks with a longtime acquaintance—white, liberal, intelligent. It annoyed him, he told me, how some Black Americans blamed their economic travails on the legacy of slavery, which, after all, ended so long ago. I was surprised to hear this. Then again, it’s a common view, albeit one easily dispelled by reading up on the subject.
His ignorance reminded me of a James Baldwin quote. “Someone once said to me that the people, in general, cannot bear very much reality…,” Baldwin wrote in 1959. “They prefer fantasy to a truthful re-creation of their experience. People have quite enough reality to bear by simply getting through their lives, raising their children, dealing with the eternal conundrums of birth and taxes and death.”
MOTHER JONES TOP STORIESWe're not going to the moon anytimesoon, but Joe Biden won't killTrump's dream
Slavery, of course, was merely one phase of a long and violent campaign by white Americans to enrich themselves—and later to protect their political power and economic advantages—at the expense of the powerless. Beyond even the Black Codes, the Jim Crow statutes, the racial pseudoscience, lynchings, land seizures, and a 13th Amendment loophole that encouraged convict leasing and the groundless incarceration of the newly emancipated, virtually every government initiative designed to help families build intergenerational wealth—the Homestead Acts, the National Housing Act of 1934, the Social Security Act, the GI Bill, etc.—left Black people on the sidelines.
It’s hardly a coincidence that Black, Latino, and Native Americans still face discrimination in housing, education, and access to capital. They are overpoliced, but underrepresented in business and in local and national politics. They pay disproportionately high interest rates, taxes (including property taxes), and even auto insurance premiums.
In some cases, America’s past social engineering policies could be seen as a form of terrorism, protecting the economic, political, and social supremacy of white men over the indigenous, the formerly enslaved, recent immigrants and women—who, until 1974, couldn’t even secure a bank loan without a man’s signature.
Contrary to the lies we tell ourselves, the history of the United States is seldom glorious. It is invariably messy and often petty, ignorant, brutal, or shameful. We’ve had our glorious moments, sure, but our foundation, like that of a neglected 18th-century farmhouse, cries out for inspection (introspection?) and shoring up. Still, many Americans, including elected leaders, appear determined to press ahead in denial of our sins, blindly insisting on America’s greatness while ignoring all the warning signs that our grand experiment—in which all individuals were to have equal opportunity and a part in determining the collective fate—may be drawing to a close.
