No to Green New Deal. Yes to Media New Deal! - WND

No to Green New Deal. Yes to Media New Deal! - WND:

You hear it every day – from all the Democratic presidential candidates and 98 percent of the media: The existential threat facing America and the world is … climate change. They are in agreement that we must adopt a radical new lifestyle of coercive government control, stop using gas-powered cars and trucks, do without air travel, stop raising children.
But in truth we don’t need to adopt a Green New Deal to save the planet.
We need to adopt a Media New Deal to save free speech, the free press, freedom of religion and free elections.
That’s what we need.
And we don’t have 10 or 12 years to do it. We may only have until 2020.
America’s freedom has never faced a greater threat. The Democratic Party leadership is now dominated by openly brazen socialists and semi-closeted ones. The Big Media are in the tank for them as never before. And, this time, the biggest and most powerful tech monopolies in the world are censoring dissent, actively destroying the independent media, subverting President Trump at every turn and plotting a putsch for a radical New World Order.
I know I may sound a little … out there today.
But hear me out.

Yeah, this looks like a border crisis

Yeah, this looks like a border crisis:

More than 76,000 migrants crossed the southern border illegally last month, the highest number in 12 years. So much for all those media “fact checks” arguing that there’s no emergency to justify President Trump’s wall.
Immigration officials say the number is only going to increase, creating what Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Kevin McAleenan warns is “a border security and a humanitarian crisis.”
Why are they coming in such vast numbers? Because smugglers have put them wise to how to take advantage of recent court decisions to claim asylum and remain here indefinitely.

Groupthink | Federal Healthcare Fraud | Fraud of the Day

Groupthink | Federal Healthcare Fraud | Fraud of the Day:
"Fraudsters can be said to suffer from “Groupthink,” a way of thinking where a group of individuals reaches a conclusion that is thought to be correct, whether it is or not.
Fraudsters tend to think that they deserve to receive government benefits when they really don’t. 
In their own mind, they justify this dysfunctional line of thinking and commit criminal acts that steal from others.
A Cheyenne, Wyoming psychologist and his wife were part of the erroneous opinion that they deserved to collect more money than they deserved from the Wyoming Medicaid program.
They stole $6.2 million from the government health program in a healthcare fraud billing scam that targeted patients who supposedly received group therapy.
...Today’s fraud case is a good example of why it’s not always a good idea to go along with the group. (While fraudsters widely conclude that they will get away with stealing taxpayer dollars, their group mentality is flawed.)
Ironically, they are bound for prison where they will become a part of an even wider group of flawed thinkers..."

Girl Scouts Gives Highest Award To Girl Who Organized A Pro-Abortion Campaign | Daily Wire

Girl Scouts Gives Highest Award To Girl Who Organized A Pro-Abortion Campaign | Daily Wire
"...Though the organization's ties to abortion conglomerate Planned Parenthood have been known for years, the Girl Scouts of America have yet to be so forthright about their closeted support for abortion.
Until now.
...the Girl Scouts of Southern Arizona honored a girl for her volunteer work on "reproductive health justice."
"Meghna Gopalan, recently profiled in a Tucson publication, received the Gold Award, the Girl Scouts highest honor, for her work," reports LifeNews. 

"Her project involved working with the pro-abortion Women’s March and its affiliate in Tucson. She said her goal was to 'educate people about and destigmatize access to women’s healthcare' — euphemisms for abortion."
"I’m planning on hosting an event to educate people about and de-stigmatize access to women’s healthcare," Meghan Gopalan said. 

"I’ve been working with El Rio Reproductive Health Access Project, and they offered ideas on reproductive health justice which would broaden the scope of the project a little bit. 

I got interested in the topic with the Supreme Court nomination of [Brett] Kavanaugh …"
Christy Volanski, co-editor of MyGirlScoutCouncil.com, said the Girl Scouts have a "cozy relationship" with the abortion industry. 

Former Girl Scouts CEO Kathy Cloninger even once admitted on NBC: "We partner with many organizations. 

We have relationships with … Planned Parenthood organizations across the country."..."

Whitmer proposes levying corporate income tax on 150,000 S-corps, LLCs

Whitmer proposes levying corporate income tax on 150,000 S-corps, LLCs:

"Increasing taxes will certainly not be positive or helpful to the Michigan business environment, or to valuations of businesses in Michigan, or to the prospects of attracting investment in Michigan, which already wasn't near the top of anyone's favorites list," Roesler told Crain's in an email. "Increasing taxes on small businesses in particular will reduce available jobs, will reduce the monies available to increase wages, will reduce reinvestment in physical plant and assets (growth), and overall hinders business expansion."

Thomas Sowell warns U.S. may not resist siren song of socialism: 'I wouldn't bet on it' - Washington Times
"Thomas Sowell, a living legend in the field of economics, says he fears the U.S. may eventually succumb to the siren song of socialism.
The author of “Basic Economics,” “The Vision of the Anointed,” “The Quest for Cosmic Justice” and numerous other books said the U.S. may very well go down a path of financial ruin due to “wonderful-sounding” rhetoric.
...“I do have a great fear that, in the long run, we may not make it,” Mr. Sowell said. 
“I hate to say that. The one thing that keeps me from being despairing is that we don’t know. There are so many things that we can’t possibly know. And so, we may make it, but I wouldn’t bet on it.”
The author said that time and time again, people adopt willful ignorance regarding socialism’s track record around the world..."

Swedish PM: ISIS Fighters Can Return, Refuses to Strip Citizenship

Swedish PM: ISIS Fighters Can Return, Refuses to Strip Citizenship
"Swedish Prime Minister Stefan Löfven has ruled out stripping Swedish Islamic State fighters of their citizenships, saying they have the right to return.

...Sweden has already seen at least 150 of the 300 or so Islamic State fighters return since 2012 with at least 19 of them living in the Swedish capital of Stockholm, according to local politician Jan Jönsson.

In the southern heavily migrant-populated city of Malmö, several of the 20 or so Islamic State returnees have been allegedly operating underground mosques and recruiting new Islamic radicals to their cause.

“They can be seen as heroes for young people who are at risk and radicalised. 

It increases concern, of course, and creates instability. 

People are worried about their children,” anti-violent extremism activist Michael Helders said."

"...electric grid battery storage in the U.S. was enough to meet the nation’s electricity needs for 5.3 seconds."-----"Michigan Capitol Confidential - Home

Michigan Capitol Confidential 
"Electric power grids in the U.S. employ 867 megawatt hours of storage capacity in the form of lithium ion batteries, which are used mostly to store reserve energy from renewable sources. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, the hourly demand for electricity in the country on March 6 was 549,799 megawatt hours. 

That means the amount of electric grid battery storage in the U.S. was enough to meet the nation’s electricity needs for 5.3 seconds."

What Would a Hybrid Civil War Look Like? | Belmont Club
"Hardly a day goes by without the tempo of political hostility rising -- sometimes to the level of physical confrontation. 
Recently, "a man being sought for the assault of a conservative activist on the University of California, Berkeley campus [was] arrested."

There is less and less regret for incivility. 

Nobody says sorry anymore, they just retreat into a private reality where they are always right. 

The Washington Post, still reeling from misidentifying the victim and aggressor in a story about Covington Catholic High School students and activist Nathan Phillips, simply slapped itself on the wrist with an Editor's Note admitting it got its account wrong and declared it all square. 

That was better than YouTube, which allegedly deplatformed a retired Navy SEAL who debunked Nathan Phillips' claim that he was a Vietnam vet.

Retired Navy Seal Don Shipley has made it his life's mission to expose these shameless charlatans. His channel had 232,806 subscribers at the time it was taken down and had been in operation since around 2008.

He told PJ Media that he thinks his channel was taken down because he had "outed Nathan Phillips," who had "masqueraded as a Vietnam vet."

In Britain, politicians are calling for the frank censorship of "hate speech."

'These Are Her Beliefs': Scalise Says Omar Must Be Removed From Committee Over Anti-Semitic Comments | Fox News Insider:

"The resolution only addresses a piece of the problem. She continues to display anti-Semitic remarks, comments. These are her beliefs," Scalise said on "America's Newsroom" Tuesday. "So, if they really are serious about addressing the problem, Nancy Pelosi has to remove her from the Foreign Affairs Committee."
He pointed out that as a member of the committee, Omar receives intelligence briefings on U.S. foreign policy, including the relationship with Israel.

Is this why the globalists want to outlaw oil and gas?-----The most important scientific breakthrough you probably never heard of

The most important scientific breakthrough you probably never heard of
"If this post in Watts Up With That? is correct, an inadvertent, serendipitous scientific discovery is responsible for reshaping the modern world of geopolitics to America’s advantage – and nobody noticed.

...fracking was only half of the technology revolution that has remade the modern world. 

...new satellite data reveals that North America is where most of the world’s hydrocarbon resources are located.  

Read the whole thing, but this is the essence:...

...We came to know who had what, just what fossil fuel reserves existed in the Middle East, Russia, China, as well as with Friendlies, such as Europe, Australia, Canada, and Mexico. This information has enormous geopolitical significance…possibly the greatest geopolitical significance of any human discovery ever.

Despite the fantasies of greenies, oil and gas are the lifeblood of world power and of most economic activity. 
With this knowledge and the ability to exploit it, the United States carries far more weight than it did ten years ago. "
