President Trump and Alina Habba, Trump’s lawyer, speak to the media following another day of nonsense testimony in the New York civil case against Donald Trump.
Biden is going to Israel today. The agenda here is transparently obvious.
John Fetterman has apparently engaged in some self-introspection.
The House went home on Friday without electing a speaker. The media is apoplectic that this is paralyzing the country. Last I checked everything is still running smoothly here. The pundits are worried about the country being forced to shut down some unnecessary functions next month.
My question is, “is that really a downside to this situation?”
California has apparently decided that kids should not be held accountable for their behavior in school. From the Epoch Times: ...
Karl Denninger was the founder and CEO of MCSNet. He later sold the company to Winstar Communications. Denninger is a founding contributor to the finance blog market-ticker.org, and has used the internet to bring attention to his concerns with the financial system. Denninger was also one of the early members of the Tea Party movement, sometimes referred to as a founder.
Denninger is gifted at processing mountains of statistical data and being able to present his findings in an understandable manner. He does not pretend. Denninger does not ignore data he does not like.
Denninger did an outstanding job with COVID data. While I do not always subscribe to his ideas for fixing things, his analyses are thought provoking.
Karl Denninger believes we are headed to very bad economic times and he pulls no punches in telling everyone why.
Another interview with Caroline Glick. Glick is a stable, non-pretending voice of pragmatic deliberation as the Israeli response to the Hamas attack continues. Glick does not pretend that there is some aspect of the current situation where an accommodation with Hamas is possible.
On Saturday, Hamas terrorists launched a major surprise attack on Israel. Over 5,000 missiles were fired at Israel overwhelming the Iron Dome defense. Israel was also attacked by land and by sea. More than a thousand civilians were wantonly slaughtered by Hamas. Some 250 were cut down at a festival for peace near Gaza. Israeli reservists have been called up to help defend the country from this terrorism.
Dr. Fauci is a central figure in the COVID pandemic that was unleashed upon the world. Fauci has been accused of suppressing information about treatments (hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, etc.) that were effective at mitigating and stopping the virus. Fauci was a big supporter of the lockdowns that had absolutely no effect on the transmission of the virus. Fauci has also been interviewed by Congress over his role in “gain of function” research into viral agents. Now his “influence” over a CIA investigation into the origins of COVID has been subject to some sunlight by the Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic (SSCP).
“Comrade citizens. In the spirit of protecting you from hateful misinformation, the Canadian Radio and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) is stepping up. No longer will comrades be subject to the depredations of individuals who might undermine the great work that your government is doing. All “meaningful content” appearing on Internet platforms will be monitored to ensure that streaming services are making valid contributions to Canadian and indigenous lives. Comrade citizens lives will be better for the heroic efforts of the CRTC.”
Thoughts that echo through an idle mind.
Speaker Pro Tempore of the House Patrick McHenry was visibly furious over the ouster of Kevin McCarthy as Speaker. Was this because Pelosi and Steny Hoyer had promised to protect the Speakership if it was challenged?
Where was this anger when J6 defendants were and are still being railroaded by Biden’s weaponized DOJ? Did McHenry ever speak out forcefully about this maladministration of justice?
The last federal budget that went through the appropriations process, passed both chambers and signed by a president, was the fiscal year 2008 budget signed in September 2007 by George W Bush. Every single budget from that moment to today has been a series of continuing resolutions, omnibus spending packages (mini and regular) and baseline budgeted CR extensions. This is the insanity that has resulted in the debt mess we see today.
