MSU Student gov Trying to Obtain Warrants, FREE Black Power Rally Demanded After Racist Events "...A recent forum held by the Black Student Alliance (BSA) on racist activities featured strong calls for action and change. Calls include the student government “working to obtain warrants,” for individuals who made alleged racist and racist remarks in an “Ask President Stanley” forum with MSU’s President the previous day. In addition, calls for mandated diversity classes and a free Black Power Rally. ...“We’re searching for IP addresses and working to obtain warrants to hold those responsible accountable for their actions.” ...A breakdown of BSA’s timeline is listed below:

I mean, if he’s truly Hitler 2: Electric Boogeyman, then isn’t it your sacred duty to remove this cancer on our body politic with arms if necessary? ...Your hero, Jerry Nadler, while on parole from the chocolate factory, told the Senate this about our elected president: "Only his will goes. He is a dictator. This must not stand and that is another reason he must be removed from office." ...But since this is a threat to our democracy, because Trump is a non-leftist dictator, aren’t you guys morally obligated to take action and remove him? ...Go home to your mom’s basements, dorms, tacky urban apartments and billionaire mansions and get your guns and… ...And even Eric Swalwell can ...be in charge of chemical weapons and poison gas. ...Words actually mean something. “Dictator” means something, and a lot of Americans have had experience with real ones either before moving here or while deployed. So, the next time you pampered prisses want to spew your MSNBC-approved rhetoric, save it. Pick up a weapon or shut the hell up."
A former Democrat outside of the President Trump rally in Las Vegas, Nevada, spoke to Breitbart News about his support for the president, opposition to open borders, and his journey off of food stamps, for which he credits President Trump.
The vaccine market has grown sixfold over the past two decades, worth more than $35 billion today, according to AB Bernstein.
The firm said the industry has consolidated to four big players that account for about 85% of the market — British drugmaker GlaxoSmithKline, French pharmaceutical company Sanofi, and U.S.-based Merck and Pfizer.
...Still, any commercial treatment for the coronavirus could be years away. Experts have warned despite recent advances, the public shouldn’t expect a coronavirus vaccine to hit the market until early next year." Read all.

In a clear shift to the left, former Vice President Joe Biden pledged to put a hold on all deportations during his first 100 days in office and to then only remove illegal aliens who have committed a felony.
The report claims that customers are at risk of being ripped off in a “Wild West” unregulated carbon market, and that in many cases the schemes may not be offsetting emissions at all. It includes this video, which gives a glimpse into the abuse of the system.
Just to pick some of the points raised in the story, it is claimed that many offsetting projects which claim to prevent deforestation or plant trees have had the opposite effect.
...Meanwhile studies have shown that around three quarters of projects do not provide any environmental gain because they would have happened anyway.
...If you chuck millions of pounds at developing countries no questions asked, you should not be surprised if they just take the money and carry on as before, looking after their own interest.
...And in many cases, the West is merely paying for things that would have been done anyway.
I have long held the view anyway that the whole offsetting industry is little more than a virtue signalling sham..."
Instapundit Blog Archive THE REAL REASON YOU CAN’T USE THE GROCERY BAG OF YOUR CHOICE "The Perverse Panic over Plastic. The green campaign against plastic isn’t merely a waste of time and money. Besides inconveniencing humans, it’s harmful to the environment. Banning plastic grocery bags contributes to global warming because it leads to more carbon emissions. Forcing Americans and Europeans to recycle plastic leads to more plastic pollution in the ocean because some of the recyclables end up being dumped in Asian rivers.
So why do greens keep stoking this panic? Because it makes them feel virtuously superior. The plastic bans are best understood as a modern version of medieval sumptuary laws, which forbade merchants and other commoners to wear clothes or use other products that offended the sensibilities of aristocrats and clergymen. The sumptuary edicts consistently failed to accomplish their stated purpose, but they kept getting issued anyway (there were thousands of them across Europe, as I explain in City Journal) because they enabled nobles to lord it over their social inferiors. The plastic panic also serves to provide employment for green activists. It’s one more example of what I call the Crisis Crisis: the never-ending series of hyped threats leading to policies that grow the government and leave everyone worse off.

Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom said that medical doctors should be able to prescribe housing in the same way they prescribe medication to sick people Wednesday during his 2020 State of the State Address.
That’s when the abrasive, loud-mouthed Sen. Amy Klobuchar could not remember the name of the president of Mexico.
For God’s sake, she on a senate committee that deals with Mexico. While our presidential debate focuses on overweight women and health care, the US and Russia have come terrifyingly close to open war in the Mideast. But barely any mention of this in the debates...' Read all.
