Odds & Ends

Bill Maher makes a point about transgenderism using humor to do so.

Maher’s humor makes a very important point that has been ignored by the transgender activists.  Kids go through many stages growing up.  Let kids be kids and let them grow up.  If, when they get to be adults, they wish to disfigure themselves, well, they’re adults.  If they can find a medical practitioner who will indulge their mental illness, so be it.  Until then, leave the kids alone.  Most kids outgrow these issues.


DHS agrees the Disinformation Board was a bad idea.  Two months after it first paused the Disinformation Governance Board, the DHS now admits there is “no need” for the board at all.  So, why was it ever proposed?

That answer is obvious.  The administration wanted complete control over any and all information that circulates in the country.  They wanted to be able to squelch any story they did not like, any story that made them look bad.  They thought that they could get this Board in place and then it would be close to impossible to get rid of it.

Has the administration given up on this idea, that of controlling the flow of all information in the country?  Do not believe that for a moment.  The DHS subcommittee said it had not decided how best to counter disinformation while “protect[ing] civil rights, civil liberties and privacy.”

Just who decides what is disinformation and what is not disinformation?


The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia has decided to drop charges against the members of “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” production team that were arrested at the U.S. Capitol on June 16.

How many people are still under arrest for touring the Capitol on January 6th after being invited in by Capitol Police?


The New York Post reports that GoFundMe is allowing a small fortune to be collected for kin of the Minneapolis gunman fatally shot by cops after he fired at neighbors and into residences, while hard-working Manhattan bodega clerk Jose Alba’s fund got the ax, critics rage.

The fund-raiser for the family of dead Minnesota shooter surpassed its goal of $20,000 within three days, hitting $20,500 by Monday afternoon.  The gunman who shot into Arabella Foss-Yarbrough home “had been harassing her and stalking her for months.”

Yet the GoFundMe page for Alba — who killed an ex-con attacker in self-defense at the store — got pulled a day after his case came to light.

It is time to find another way for people to fund raise for good causes.  GoFundMe is a lost cause.


A good guy with a gun stopped a bad guy with a gun.

A bystander’s decision to shoot a man who opened fire inside an Indiana mall was a rare occurrence of someone stepping in to prevent multiple casualties before police could arrive.  Remember the old saw.  When seconds matter, the police are minutes away.  Of course, in Uvalde, TX, that would be hours before they actually did anything.

Police on Monday praised the quick actions of 22-year-old Elisjsha Dicken, an armed shopper who killed 20-year-old Jonathan Sapirman after Sapirman killed three people and wounded two others at a mall near Indianapolis.

“Many more people would have died last night if not for a responsible armed citizen,” police Chief Jim Ison said Monday, repeatedly calling Dicken a “good Samaritan” and his response “heroic.”

Speaking of heroic, how many headlines about the shooting in Big Media had the word hero in them?  The man’s actions were mentioned within the articles but no headline used the word hero.

Why not?  This man is a true American hero.


Is the Ukrainian president having a mental breakdown?  President Volodymyr Zelensky fired the country’s security service chief and prosecutor general while accusing dozens of their employees of collaborating with Russia.

Western media has ignored the absolute disaster that is unfolding in Ukraine (they are and have been losing the war for a long time).  Why is the war still ongoing?  How many Ukrainians will be offered up to the gods of war in a losing cause?  Is the problem that Ukrainian bribe money is what is keeping the hostilities going?  Why did Congress object to the Inspector General checking to see how the $40 billion would be used?


The exodus is ongoing in VP Kamala Harris’ office.  One of them is Meghan Groob who is director of speechwriting. That’s funny.  I thought the VP just reached into a big jar filled with slips of paper with words on them and then recited those words.


Will the Taliban take over nuclear-armed Pakistan?  Sri Lanka is a harbinger of what could happen in Pakistan.

Pakistan is heavily dependent on both Russian and Ukrainian wheat. Both of those supplies have now been interrupted. Serious hunger is now a genuine threat.

The rise in oil prices has also hit Pakistan hard. Between 2020 and 2021 the cost of oil imports to Pakistan rose by 85%.  Power outages of 10-12 hours are now routine.

How long can a corrupt government stay in power if they cannot feed the people and keep the lights on?
