Memory Fails

sunbeam June 29, 2020 Comments Off

Recently we have seen more and more memory fails among elite Democratic politicians. Joe Biden’s are legendary and appear to be fueled by being in the early stages of dementia. There have been a number of others who appear to be inflicted with the same type of memory lapses.

Two days after a six-block section of Seattle, Washington, was commandeered by looters and rioters, Governor Inslee said he was not aware of the CHAZ section of Seattle. This was despite the fact the group had forced police to abandon a precinct two days before and had stormed City Hall the day before. So, Inslee was saying he did not know that the local government of one of Washington’s largest cities had allowed a section of its city to be taken over by anarchists.

There is a lot of activity going on at the DOJ. Attorney General William Barr said Thursday that the DOJ has about 500 investigations underway across the country. These investigations are looking into acts of arson and destruction associated with the riots over the past several weeks. Dozens of indictments have already been presented.

The Truth About George Floyd’s Death

sunbeam June 24, 2020 Comments Off

I have previously written an extended article (A Rush To Judgement) about the problematic issues surrounding George Floyd’s death. Floyd’s death has been co-opted by people who would like to overthrow the current government. They have used the outrage from a viral video to advance the cause of ridding the country of law enforcement. There is also an ongoing attempt to erase the history of the country.

All of this is a discussion for another time. Mark Wauck has published a much more extensive analysis of Floyd’s death that enforces many of the problems that I highlighted before. It goes much further than I did. It is long and technical in nature at times. But, if one wishes to understand what the officers did, it is a must read.

Business As Usual

The headline by the Sun-Times Media Wire was “101 shot, 14 fatally, over Father’s Day weekend in Chicago.” The weekend saw more shooting victims but less fatalities than the last weekend of May, when 85 people were shot, 24 of them fatally — Chicago’s most deadly weekend in years.

The vast majority were black-on-black shootings and killings. In other words, business as usual. This is why #BlackLivesMatter is a complete joke. Don’t the lives of the 14 that died over the weekend matter? What about the 24 killed during the last weekend in May?

Hillsdale College Takes A Stand

sunbeam June 22, 2020 Comments Off

Hillsdale College is one of an exceedingly small number of colleges that does not take federal money of any kind. As highlighted on their website, they offer an education “designed to equip human beings for self-government.” They teach that “freedom can only last if you and I choose to act as people of character.” They do this without bowing down to demands from our federal government of what a college education should be.

Founded in 1844 by Baptists, Hillsdale is a non-sectarian institution whose teachings are “informed by Christianity’s moral teachings.” Its founders were abolitionists and feminists so the college has admitted blacks and women since its founding.

The Nazi Party Of America

sunbeam June 17, 2020 Comments Off

Dennis Prager has written an article over at Townhall.com with the title, The Four Horsemen of America’s Apocalypse. In it Prager reviews how the Nazi Party (National Socialists) came into power. Prager also goes over how other totalitarian movements succeeded in gaining power. Prager highlights the four elements needed to destroy a civilization. He then compares that to what the Democrats and their allies in the media are doing today.

Manufacturing Index Surges

sunbeam June 16, 2020 Comments Off

Once again the experts found themselves out of the ballpark when it came to predicting the state of manufacturing in America. Arched eyebrows are becoming “the thing” among economic experts. These numbers will give Nobel laureate Paul Krugman another opportunity to suggest that the numbers are fake.

After three months of broad weakness brought on by COVID-19 business shutdowns/slowdowns, the Manufacturing Index surged 48 points to a reading of negative 0.2 up from negative 48.5 in May.

Minneapolis In Chaos

sunbeam June 15, 2020 Comments Off

As was predicted, Minneapolis police officers are quitting the department in droves. At least seven officers have already resigned and at least seven more are in the process of doing so. This comes after the city council decided to disband the department. Precisely what will take its place if anything is not known at this point.

A police spokesman tried to downplay the departures by saying that people leave the department all the time. While people leaving employment for a new and different job is not unusual, the question is who will replace them? Who would want to become an officer in the MPD at this point in time? There is no future here with the department being disbanded.

Healing Not Hatred

During testimony in the House judiciary Committee in Congress, representative Jim Jordan (R-OH) addressed the “Defund the Police” movement being pushed by radical Democrats. Jordan has been consistent and loyal to the Constitution, the country and the true meaning of justice. He is a rare bird among politicians in Washington today. WATCH:

A Rush To Judgement

sunbeam June 12, 2020 Comments Off

This is undoubtedly the most well-known picture in the country right now. It shows Officer Chauvin restraining George Floyd along with the assistance of two other officers. One officer was on Floyd’s lower back and the other was holding his legs. Floyd complained of being unable to breathe while this was going on. Subsequent to this, George Floyd expired.

Officer Chauvin, a 19-year veteran of the Minneapolis Police Department, has been arrested and charged with murder in connection with this event. The other three officers on the scene have been charged with aiding and abetting a murder.
