State and City bailouts. Oh they’re coming baby. I guarantee it.
And no one is talking about it. Until now. Unfortunately, it may already be too late.
James Carville, in 1992, during the presidential campaign of Bill Clinton vs. George H W Bush famously coined the phrase, “It’s the economy stupid.” He was Clinton’s chief campaign advisor.
What’s that mean?
It means in every election cycle, people vote their pocket book or vote with their wallet? read more
So you think the democrats are on the side of the people. After all, the Biden team and Congressional dems agree, that universal healthcare will help you, a $15 per hour minimum / living wage is what is needed and of course, how many Americans are beyond struggling under the crushing weight of student debt.They’re doing all this for you, the voter. And as thanks, you voted for the Biden/Harris ticket, because you trust Uncle Joe and the democrats to be the straight shooters they are.
But are they? Is their plan to forgive student loan debt for you, the people, the voters, or is it rather for leftist members of Congress who, by dizzying coincidence, are still saddled with college debt despite their relatively exorbitant annual salary of $174,000.
Gee, I wonder. read more
The first 100 days – road sign
Decision Desk HQ and Business Insider called the presidential race for Joe Biden on Friday morning, after declaring Biden the winner of Pennsylvania.
They said the reason they called it is they simply followed the data.
I agree. The hard data should be followed. And under normal circumstances this would be fine. If Biden won fair and square, than that’s it.
But there has been just too much crap going on to simply trust “the data.”
I’m sure we’re all familiar with the term “garbage in – garbage out” – that the results of, say a computer model, is only as good as what is inputted. read more
Live report from HELL—Emperor Nero was surprised and a little angered to learn that all he had to do to stop Christians from gathering was to 
declare a pandemic.
The infamous, oppressive ruler of Rome wasted a lot of energy trying to stop Christians from worshiping Jesus when all along, churches would apparently have just shut down voluntarily if he’d just told them there was a virus with a 99.7% recovery rate going around. read more
When President Trump insisted last month that his supporters included a substantial silent majority that isn’t represented in the polls, the Democrats and the corporate media devoted a surprisingly large amount of energy to “debunking” the claim. Indeed, their reaction was so shrill and ubiquitous that they seemed, to paraphrase Hamlet’s hapless mother, to be protesting too much.
A new poll released Wednesday by the Cato Institute suggests a reason for this frantic reaction to Trump’s assertion. The survey of 2,000 Americans 18 years of age and older unambiguously indicates that the reluctance of moderates and conservatives to share their political views has increased significantly since 2017. read more
Yesterday saw a new low in irresponsible media reporting on a briefing by a presidential press secretary. Many media outlets outright lied about what Kayleigh McEnany said by cutting her off in mid-sentence in a comment on school reopening, thereby creating an impression that was opposite of the truth. read more
A FOX 35 investigation released on Monday discovered an inflation of coronavirus cases by the Florida Department of Health. The Sunshine State’s health authorities misreported the number of persons testing positive for coronavirus in its aggregation and publication of test results from laboratories.
FOX 35 anchor Charles Billi explained the impetus for the investigation. He said, “We found numerous labs that are only reporting positive test results, so they show a 100-percent positivity rate. That got our attention.” read more
The entire purpose of academic research is to discover the truth about vexing scientific and societal questions through the use of research and data. However, if the truth refutes a sacred political agenda, you can no longer publish such research or even cite it. The latest victim of this reverse Jim Crow witch hunt against truth in data and academic research is Stephen Hsu, vice president for research at Michigan State University.
On June 2, I cited a study from researchers at the Michigan State and the University of Maryland that concludes, “We did not find evidence for anti-Black or anti-Hispanic disparity in police use of force across all shootings, and, if anything, found anti-White disparities when controlling for race-specific crime.” This study analyzed 917 officer-involved fatal shootings and found that that “per capita racial disparity in fatal shootings is explained by non-White people’s greater exposure to the police through crime.” The study was published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences last year.
Tucker Carlson mentioned this study on his show later that evening, and it has since gained more notoriety. Naturally, one would expect those who believe in the “systemic racism in policing” blood libel to cite evidence why this study is wrong and to provide counter-evidence that supports their position. But debate is not their strong suit, just censorship.
The College Fix reports that Stephen Hsu was fired from Michigan State University for citing this study and posting an interview of one of its authors, Michigan State colleague Joe Cesario, on his blog. He posted the interview with Cesario on June 2, the same day I cited the study.
On June 25, the Wall Street Journal reported that the Graduate Employees Union was calling for Hsu’s head on twitter. The Journal pointed out that among other things, “The union also faulted him for having ‘directed funding to research downplaying racism in bias in police shootings.’”
As Professor Hsu told the WSJ: “The MSU professor who conducted that work, psychologist Joe Cesario, tells me that ‘we had no idea what the data was going to be, what the outcome was going to be, before we did this study.’ Mr. Cesario has collected evidence from a simulator and from real-world interactions between police and citizens. He concluded that ‘the nature of the interaction really matters the most, and officers were not more likely to be ready to shoot upon encountering a black versus white citizen.’
Commenting on the Wall Street Journal article in his blog, Professor Hsu noted, “Several years ago Cesario was granted a rare opportunity to study police shootings and officer behavior in simulators in a large city. My office provided him with a small amount of funding to create realistic simulator video of police stops and other situations. This is an important topic to study if we want to understand and improve policing.”
I thought the militia was like a four letter word, synonymous with gun-totin red-necks. And I thought they were inherently worrisome and generally up to no good. Is that not how our media and leftist democrats depict them?
Why yes it is – until now. This latest militia isn’t scary, I guess because the 1,000 strong, heavily armed, are “100 percent black.” Don’t kill the messenger – that’s their words – not mine.
And they’re looking for a fight – as in armed conflict. Now how well do you thing something like that would go over if this gang was “100 percent white?”
Not well, I’d imagine.
And need I remind everyone. Race has nothing to do with this. Ignorance, stupidity (not the same thing) and an obvious double standard is what this is all about.
Jared Kushner gets the boot?
Well praise the Lord, if true. Both him and his wife have to go. Obviously they’re part of the family… but no more advisory positions for either of them.
Ivanka is a liberal – always has been. So is Kushner. And both have given just pitiful advice to the President – undermining his stated agenda with every piece bad advice.
The movie, Eye in the Sky, was mildly entertaining, but of course these days, had a liberal message. And that message was inadvertently shown that the West has neither the stomach nor will to win a war, if even a single innocent is killed through collateral damage. read more
