Odds & Ends
Weird and goofy. That’s the only words that even come close to describing this introduction by the giggler who pretends to be Vice-President of the United States.

Bill Maher makes a point about transgenderism using humor to do so.
The June “Producer Price Index” (PPI) has been released and it is not pretty. The June PPI shows an 11.3% increase year-over-year in final demand products at the wholesale level. The fact that it is significantly higher than the CPI (9.3%) indicates that we are nowhere close to seeing a leveling off of the inflation rate. Joe Biden’s statement in December that inflation had peaked at 7% may soon look like a valley.
Some of you may recall the “Disinformation Governance Board” (DGB) that was proposed by the administration a while back. It flared briefly in the heavens before suffering a rapid demise. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), had suggested that Nina Jankowicz lead this organization. Of course, as everyone knows by now, she herself is a serial spreader of misinformation.
Officially the creation of this new federal agency has been “paused.” The board had been the subject of weeks of backlash from Republicans, libertarians and even some liberals, who likened the scheme to the Ministry of Truth from George Orwell’s classic novel “1984.”
Exactly what “paused” means is unclear. Knowing Washington and the corrupt bureaucrats who live there, it probably means that they will wait until they can sneak it back into existence during the dead of night. There is growing resistance to any such attempt.
There is little that surprises me about how corrupt Washington is but this item blew me away. Sundance over at The Last Refuge is reporting that the FBI maintains a work space INSIDE the law firm of Perkins Coie.
Sundance notes:
Joe Biden took to the podium to demand a litany of new gun restrictions. Biden called for the banning of assault weapons and high-capacity magazines through reinstating the 1994 Federal Assault Weapons Ban.
Biden also called on Congress to construct new federal background checks, which sounded a lot like a federal registration of gun ownership.
Trump held a rally in Wyoming that ostensibly, according to leftist news outlets, was because Cheney voted to impeach Trump. The news media characterized the rally was a grudge rally against Liz Cheney. They published stories touting a most empty arena and published pictures to back this story up. Trump once again is finished.
Babylon Bee reports that Pfizer just finished clinical trials for a monkey pox vaccine. This was fortunate since a “new strain” of the virus was detected piggybacking on gay males and traveling around the world.
Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano Once again calls out the evil residing in the upper levels of most governments. His current letter calls out the dangers of handing over sovereignty on health matters to the unelected bureaucrats of WHO. Abp. Vigano calls this high treason for the leaders of any country to do so.
Will wonders never cease? The media is actually beginning to cover the prosecution of Sussman by John Durham. As part of that coverage, they actually talked about the Russian server hoax and helped Robby Mook throw Hillary Clinton under the bus.
