Does anyone want to guess the State within the United States with the lowest seven day new case rate is?
 |
| Kristi Noem and South Dakota did it right! |
According to the CDC, the current seven day rate for the United States as a whole is 270.6. The rate for South Dakota is 81.2 making them the lowest state in the union. I wonder how they got there without all of those mask mandates and lock downs? Moreover, not only are cases down, but they have had only 41 deaths since the beginning of June.

From a smart MD, a proposal for a reasonable vaccine strategy going forward (assuming repeated boosters don’t have a terrible side effect profile). This would be far more limited than the current nonsense and direct shots at people who might actually benefit.
read it, it does make a lot of sense. Unlike Fauci and the CDC

Remember one thing about South Dakota is very lightly populated.
Close contact is dangerous but I grew up in Rapid City South. It was the second most populated city, it had about 44,000 people like me...white and Native Americans.
My graduation class had about 676..

India's Ivermectin Blackout: Part II
By Justus R. Hope, MD
....
The Burgundy graph above reveals the numbers in Delhi after they included Ivermectin in the protocol. Delhi is a city with 30 million inhabitants and, as of August 11, saw 37 new cases and ZERO deaths. By contrast, Tamil Nadu, a city of 78 million, saw 1964 new cases and 28 new deaths.
Tamil Nadu shares their rejection of Ivermectin and choice to use Remdesivir in common with the United States.
As of August 10, the United States, with 331 million inhabitants, saw 161,990 new cases and 1,049 new deaths. Uttar Pradesh is a state in India of comparable population to the US. Uttar Pradesh contains 241 million people. On August 10, Uttar Pradesh saw only 19 new cases and ONE death, over 1,000 times lower than the US.
The evidence in favor of Ivermectin is massive and overwhelming, which includes W.H.O. scientists Drs. Tess Lawrie's and Andrew Hill's recent highly-regarded and peer-reviewed publications [for anyone who wishes to show scientific data to their doctors]:

I'm no scientist but Ivermectin is what treated Trump and this looks compelling to me. It is also what is pushed by the group Amercian Frontline Doctors which has been banned by big tech (Facebook, twitter and youtube at least)
Where has Fauci been on this ?
We know Biden has been sleeping as well
Where is state media ?

Just 35 Percent of Texas’ Congressional Districts Are Majority-White — Down From 58% in 2010
Amy Walter
August 17, 2021
@amyewalter
Redistricting happens only once every ten years. But, the demographic make-up of these districts can change a great deal over that decade. In some cases, court challenges force wholesale redraws. But, the most significant changes are those that happen organically, with people moving in and out of districts and states over the course of a decade.
Perhaps no state has seen as much demographic change as Texas. Of the states 36 CDs, 13 of them (or just over 35 percent) have a majority white population. Just ten years ago, more than half (58 percent) of the state’s CD’s were majority white.
Nowhere has this surge in the population of people of color been more pronounced than Texas’ 3rd CD held by GOP Rep. Van Taylor. Back in 2010, this district, which takes in the fast growing exurbs north of Dallas (such as Plano and McKinney), was 62 percent white. Today, Census data shows that the white population has dropped almost 13 points to 49.8 percent. Leading the surge in population growth in these exurbs were Asian residents who now make up almost a quarter of the population in the district — up from 15 percent just ten years ago.
Of the eight CDs that were majority white in 2010 but are not today, all but one (suburban Dallas’ 32nd CD) are represented by Republicans.
Notably, six of those eight districts have gotten much more competitive at the presidential level as well. Or, to put it another way, six CDs that looked safely Republican when these lines were last drawn back in 2012, are now either Democratic-leaning or evenly divided. For example, back in 2012 Mitt Romney won GOP Rep. Michael McCaul’s Austin and Houston suburban district by more than 20 points. Last year, however, Donald Trump narrowly carried it by just 1.7 percent.
GOP candidates in those diversifying CDs have also seen their margins narrow a great deal over these last ten years. In 2012, for example, then-GOP Rep. Ted Poe easily won re-election in this suburban Houston district by 32 points. Eight years later, Rep. Dan Crenshaw carried it by a smaller — though still healthy 12.8 points, a decrease in GOP performance of 19 points.

Taliban Block Routes to Kabul Airport, Hampering Evacuations
Afghans and Westerners stranded in Kabul after Sunday’s Taliban takeover started trickling into the city’s U.S.-controlled airport for evacuation flights, but entry remained extremely difficult, with Taliban checkpoints on most access roads and no clear system to bring people in.
In the eastern city of Jalalabad, meanwhile, the first challenge emerged to Taliban rule, with hundreds of locals walking through the city’s central square and waving the black-red-and-green flags of the fallen Afghan republic to chants of “Allahu akbar.” Video footage showed gunfire as the demonstrators dispersed.
There was no immediate information on casualties, and it wasn’t clear whether this was a harbinger of a more brutal attitude by the country’s new rulers, who have attempted to project an image of benevolent tolerance since seizing the capital on Sunday. On Wednesday, Anas Haqqani, a senior member of the Taliban, came to Kabul for a meeting with former President Hamid Karzai, who ruled until 2014, and with the fallen republic’s chief peace negotiator, Abdullah Abdullah.
At Kabul’s Hamid Karzai International Airport, crowds of Afghans continued to gather along the perimeter, trying to flee the country. U.S. Marines focused mostly on keeping people from coming close. As a result, many of the evacuation flights continued leaving with empty seats even as tens of thousands of Afghans who worked with Western governments clamored for a way out before the Taliban track them down.
“The situation is very bad at the gate,” said Lida Ahmadi, who applied for a special immigrant visa for Afghans who had helped the U.S. effort in Afghanistan. “I slept on the road last night. Now, after two nights and two days at the gate, we’ve finally got the chance to come in. I am so happy now.”
Many others haven’t made it, so far. An Australian C-130, which can carry more than 120 passengers, flew out only 26 people Wednesday morning, the Australian government said.
An estimated 10,000 to 15,000 U.S. citizens remain in Afghanistan, senior Biden administration officials told Senate staff during a private briefing on Tuesday, a Senate aide said. The U.S. military evacuated 1,100 U.S. citizens, U.S. permanent residents and their families on Tuesday, according to a White House official. In total, the U.S. has evacuated 3,200 people so far and relocated to the U.S. 2,000 Afghans who were approved for special immigrant visas, the official said.
In the heart of Kabul, only one Western embassy—that of France—remained after all other Western missions shut down or moved to the airport on Sunday. In the past three days, it has become a magnet for hundreds of Afghans and foreigners trying to get out, with several hundred others camping around the compound in hopes of being allowed entry.
On Tuesday night, a convoy of some 10 buses traveled from the French Embassy to the Kabul airport, stopping at Taliban checkpoints, with passengers—most of them Afghans—later boarding a French A400 military plane to Abu Dhabi. By then, the crowded diplomatic compound had already run out of water and food rations.
“The embassy had turned into an internally displaced persons camp,” said Stéphane Nicolas, head of operations for consulting firm ATR, who sheltered in the embassy until Tuesday night. “Behavior changes in this kind of place. Everyone is under shock, they know that they have lost everything, and that if they venture out they may die.”
Outside the passenger terminal of the military side of the airport Wednesday morning, U.S. Marines handed out field rations to Afghan civilians, many of them women and children. A secondhand bus, bearing the markings of a tourism agency in Germany’s Thuringia region, dropped off the latest load of refugees. A small boy pulled his father’s kameez as a Marine directed the new arrivals.
Esrar Ahmad, a former interpreter for U.S. troops who also managed to enter the airport on Wednesday, said that his son and wife were injured in a stampede at the gates. “The crowd pushed us from the back and she fell down,” he said. “Her knee was badly hurt by a rock, and she can’t really walk now.”
“The problem is that people believed in rumors of being able to go abroad without any documents or coordination,” added Hayatullah, a 47-year-old Afghan-American who also spent the night outside the airport gate before being allowed inside Wednesday morning. “These people created a huge chaos.”
In the U.K., Home Secretary Priti Patel told the British Broadcasting Corp. that officials are working “around the clock” to evacuate British and eligible Afghan nationals out of the country, and now are flying out roughly 1,000 a day.
The U.K.’s chief of defense staff, Gen. Nick Carter, told Sky News the Taliban were cooperating with British troops supporting the evacuation efforts, adding: “What we’re not getting are reports of them behaving in a medieval way like you might have seen in the past.”
Biden Rattles U.K. With His Afghanistan Policy
August 18, 2021 at 12:21 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard
“In Britain,
the chaotic departure from Afghanistan has drawn comparisons not to helicopters flying out of Saigon but to an earlier debacle: the 1956 Suez crisis, in which a humiliated Britain was forced to pull out of Egypt, having failed to dislodge its nationalist leader, Gamal Abdel Nasser,” the New York Times reports.
“The problem is, Britain had very little to say about the timing or tactics of the most recent withdrawal, even though it suffered the second-most casualties in the Afghanistan war after the United States. That has left British officials embarrassed and embittered at President Biden. Some say he behaved more like his predecessor, Donald J. Trump, than an ally who promised a new era of American partnership.”
Boy, THAT stings. To be compared to Trump!
Ch will never give me or you credit or especially Sleepy Joe Biden and his actions!
Keeping the roads safe is the most important issue right now.
But Jimmy Hitler will hate Mooslimb immigrants from Afghanistan.
Falling Crude Prices Lift Refiner Profits

Some good news!
Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett's first visit to the White House will come with President Biden attempting to manage the worst foreign policy crisis of his presidency.
Why it matters: Bennett is expected to visit next Thursday, according to U.S. officials, which will likely make him the first world leader to meet Biden during his "Saigon moment."

Parent Says She Was Harassed For Wearing A Mask Ahead Of Emergency Meeting In Florida Over Mask Mandates
In the first public comment during the Hillsborough County School Board’s emergency meeting, a parent claimed that she was harassed by anti-mask parents outside the auditorium where the meeting is currently taking place.
This isn’t uncommon. At that chaotic school board meeting in Tennessee’s Williamson County that we covered last week, parents described a similar scene — anti-mask mandate parents going after those who want masking at their kids schools.
It highlights the layers of tension to this latest culture war, played out most publicly between school districts and state officials, but also on a more granular level: parents vs. school board members, parents vs. parents, parents vs. medical professionals.
Afghanistan Jan, 21, 2021.

Afghanistan today.
Immigrants...
The question of Afghan refugees ties into a larger immigration debate that has riled conservative voters disenchanted with demographic change. Former President Donald Trump sharply cut refugee admissions, and Biden has faced criticism from human rights activists for being slow to rebuild the program.
Stephen Miller, he's a fucking racist bastard the conservative hard-liner who transformed U.S. immigration policy as an adviser in the Trump White House, said Republicans should reject efforts to expand Special Immigrant Visas, or SIVs, that would allow Afghan refugees into the U.S.
"The correct strategy as a national security and domestic policy matter is to strongly emphasize regional resettlement & regional solutions," Miller said by text message. "The numbers who will want to leave Afghanistan will number in the millions — exponentially more than the remaining numbers who are statutorily-eligible for SIVs.
"There will now be a colossal generalized refugee exodus as we have seen in other conflict-ravaged countries like Syria, Libya and Somalia," he said.
And opposition to taking in Afghans appeared to be brewing among prominent conservative media figures, including Laura Ingraham of Fox News, who sounded the alarm on her show Monday night about "thousands of potentially unvetted refugees" from Afghanistan. (Prospective refugees to the U.S. undergo intensive security vetting and background checks under federal law.)
In a poll taken Friday to Monday, the left-leaning firm Data For Progress asked 1,193 likely voters whether Biden should speed the process of giving immigrant visas to U.S. allies in Afghanistan or whether he should take no additional action to bring them here. Fifty-five percent said Biden should speed the process, while 30 percent said he should take no extra action; 15 percent said they do not know.
The Republican consensus will shape the debate, because Democrats have a wafer-thin majority in the House and need at least 10 Republicans to pass most legislation in the Senate.
"If you fought with Americans, if you risked your lives, you should be eligible for the Special Immigrant Visa program," Rep. Mike Gallagher, R-Wis., said Tuesday on MSNBC. He added that vetting rules should not be waived for prospective refugees. it's a not so subtle racist view.

Sure the Karen parent took opposition to her view as "harassment" all fascist do.
As for real harassment, nobody can recall seeing any.

Be careful what you wish for. That would put New York, California, Illinois, and pretty much every blue state into play.
Because blue states have concentrated population centers that they gerrymander Republican Suburbs and rural areas with.
