Dear Legacy Media: You Are Right To Be Afraid

sunbeam April 15, 2021 Comments Off

Hrand Tookman over at LBA has written a piece about the media. In it Tookman calls out the absolute evil of those who work within the “woke supremacy” of most media outlets.

What if you’re not “the cool kids?”

I know you think you are.

But have you ever considered that you might not be?

That you might actually be the douchebags?

Seriously. Your bubble is so airtight and you’re all so bought-in. How would you even know it if, in fact, there were people much cooler than you with much cooler ideas who were set to accomplish much cooler things?

You don’t listen. You don’t investigate. You sure as hell don’t care.

You only propagandize, and only in promotion of the America-hating, often racist and increasingly fascist left.

And what if, despite your best efforts, that’s exactly how history records it?

Few people today really know that Democrats, academia, Hollywood, corporate America and the legacy news media all used “science” to justify their Nazi-era support for eugenics. It was only after the Nazis lost that your “liberal” ancestors buried all traces of their genocidal celebration.

Week One – Derek Chauvin Trial

sunbeam April 14, 2021 Comments Off

There has been a trial going on in Minnesota for some time. Police officer Derek Chauvin is on trial for trying to save George Floyd’s life. I am sure that everyone remembers the videos and the rioting that went on last year over his death from a drug overdose.

The State of Minnesota has put him on trial for murder. Jury selection took forever. Finally, some two weeks ago, we entered the actual trial phase. The State has been attempting to present a case against Chauvin for having committed murder or at least manslaughter. Keep in mind that there are three other officers awaiting trial as well. An acquittal of Chauvin would almost certainly mean the end to any chance of convicting the other officers of anything.

Kneeling

The persecution of police Officer Derek Chauvin for trying to save George Floyd’s life is underway. The prosecution has been trying to eleven days to present their case for murder. I will have some info on the trial as soon as the prosecution rests their case-in-chief .

In the mean time, this hits the nail right on its head about Kneeling…..

A Conspiracy Or What?

We have heard a lot about “vaccine passports.” Completely unconstitutional, of course. But considering how freely the Washington political hacks ignore the Constitution, it would not come as a surprise to me if the current administration would coerce people into using such an item. They would probably create the necessary intimidation under the guise of a public health emergency. Some media bobblehead recently advanced the idea that racism was a public health emergency. So anything is possible.

The White House press secretary has denied that the idea of vaccine passports. However, there are numerous anecdotal reports that the administration (sorry, I will not refer to it as the Biden administration since it is clear that he is not running anything) is quietly working with major companies on how to implement such a system.

New York State has already announced such a system, Excelsior Pass. This would seem to be the proverbial trial balloon. However, I think in this case, it is more of do it in NY first and then spread it across the country. This is the first, clear step toward subjecting people to controls over when and where they travel, whom they associate with, what places they can go into, etc. NY State is not mandating it. However, the intimidation factor is clear. You will not be allowed to participate in society if you do not get jabbed.

This leads me to the whole issue of the vaccines. I have never accepted the idea that COVID-19 was particularly dangerous. While it was not clear in the beginning just what the mortality rate was, it was clear early on that there were efficacious treatments literally sitting on the shelf.

Two Wrongs Don’t Make A Right

Tim Scott is a black man, a Republican and one of the US Senators from the State of South Carolina. I have republished below a recent letter that he wrote. Senator Scott has some really good insights. I believe it is worth your while to read every single word.

Questions For The Avatar In The White House

sunbeam April 7, 2021 Comments Off

Below are some questions that true reporters should be asking the White House press secretary Jen Psaki. Of course, it is highly unlikely that any such questions will ever be asked by the lame stream media.

Question #1 – Regarding the changes to Georgia’s election laws, Atlanta’s main newspaper, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, claims, “However, the law made some changes to early voting. But experts say the net effect was to expand the opportunities to vote for most Georgians, not limit them.” Understanding this, will President Biden immediately ask Major League Baseball (MLB) to reverse its decision regarding the All Star game? And will he also publicly apologize to the people of Atlanta, to the people of Georgia for pushing economic boycott/sanctions on their state? Will he publicly apologize for calling these changes to Georgia’s election laws “Jim Crow on steroids?”

Go Woke, Go Broke

The President of the United States decided to punish the citizens of one state because their legislature passed mild election reforms which were small steps towards ensuring free and fair elections. Despite press secretary Psaki’s claims otherwise, the Avatar in the White House came out strongly in support of removing the MLB All Star game from Atlanta.

The New Normal

sunbeam April 5, 2021 Comments Off

More and more people are waking up to the fact that fear of COVID-19 is being used to fundamentally transform America. First amendment liberties were stripped away across the country to fight a virus that is no more deadly than the flu. In fact, as more and more data comes out, it turns out that the only people who should be really concerned about this virus are the same people who are more susceptible to complications from the flu.

However, the left is not yet ready to give up.

(VIA CBS) “We’ve been told that this virus will disappear. But it will not,” Dr. William Schaffner, a professor at the Vanderbilt University School of Medicine and medical director of the National Foundation For Infectious Diseases, tells CBS News.

“We need to control it. We need to diminish its impact. But it’s going to be around hassling us for the foreseeable future. And by that I mean — years.”

[…] Schaffner says it would be best to give up the idea of going “back to normal,” and instead settle in for the “new normal” where COVID continues shaping our lives. (read more)
