Yale professor says hydroxychloroquine could save 100,000 lives — but it's being stifled by a 'propaganda war' - TheBlaze:
Yale epidemiology professor Dr. Harvey Risch said Tuesday that he believes the President Trump-touted drug, hydroxychloroquine, could save up to 100,000 lives if used properly to treat the coronavirus.
Speaking with Fox News' Laura Ingraham Monday night, Risch insisted that the controversial drug is proven to be effective against the disease and safe for people to use, but lamented that it has become the victim of a "propaganda war."

"Amid a nationwide call for anti-racist education, White Fragility by Robin DiAngelo has gained massive popularity and university endorsement.
...Campus Reform decided to find out why.
The angle that sets this book apart from similar texts is likely its development of “white fragility” as the catalyst of all racial conflict.
White fragility, according to DiAngelo, is a phenomenon that occurs when people of color confront white people on race-related issues.
Categorically, white people will react with “a range of defensive responses,” which include “emotions such as anger, fear, and guilt and behaviors such as argumentation, silence, and withdrawal from the stress-inducing situation” and which “work to reinstate white equilibrium as they repel the challenge, return our racial comfort, and maintain our dominance within the racial hierarchy.”
...In fact, it is a powerful means of white racial control and the protection of white advantage.”
Essentially, she argues that white people’s distaste for racial confrontation is responsible for perpetuating white supremacy.
...DiAngelo makes the case that “racism is deeply embedded in the fabric of our society,” saying that all racist acts stem from institutional racism.
This means that “only whites can be racist” because “in the United States, only whites have the collective social and institutional power and privilege over people of color.”
...Not only have all white people demonstrated racism, DiAngelo says, but they are doomed to do so indefinitely.
She suggests that there is no way for white people to grow up without being racist...
...Another concept DiAngelo redefines is that of white supremacy.
...all white behavior can be categorized as not only racist but also as white supremacist.
“White is a false identity, an identity of false superiority.
...Thus, white identity depends in particular on the projection of inferiority onto blacks and the oppression this inferior status justifies for the white collective.”

- White people are responsible to repair a system in which racism runs rampant, although nothing they can do will ever be enough
- White guilt is unhelpful because it does not advance any real change, although white people must reflect seriously on the extent of what they have done
- White people should be appalled at what they have brought about, although 'white women’s tears' only exacerbate the situation and reinforce white privilege

Message from our Board President
Sailor Nation-
The Mona Shores Board of Education
approved a Black Lives Matter resolution at our meeting June 29. The resolution
firmly states our conviction that schools should be places for the practice of
equality, for the building of understanding, and for the active engagement of
all in creating pathways to freedom and justice for all people.
It also includes concrete steps we will take to help that vision become a reality. Please read the full text of the resolution below.

MONA
SHORES RESOLUTION REGARDING BLACK LIVES MATTER AT SCHOOL
- WHEREAS in
response to both the current and historically
disparate treatment of Black Americans and other minorities, a nationwide movement has arisen to assert that Black Lives
Matter;
- WHEREAS schools should be places for practice of equality, for the building of understanding, and for the active engagement of all in creating pathways to freedom and justice for all people;
- WHEREAS Mona Shores' growth as a
primarily white school district occurred as a result of endemic racist
housing policies, restrictive covenants,
and intentional urban planning that prevented people of color from even
entering white spaces, let alone establishing themselves in the city in
any permanent way. This historic pattern must be recognized;
- WHEREAS Mona Shores Public Schools seeks
to address institutionalized racism in our
schools and community, and in the future offer spaces for dialogue among
staff by supporting and facilitating professional development work related
to race and other challenging topics;
- WHEREAS as a public school district, we are facilitators of the
limitless growth potential of human beings. Our charge is to pour every
ounce of creativity and energy that we have into the task of helping young
people find and achieve their purpose. Our purpose must be guided by the
belief that every human being deserves to live with dignity and that each
of our students can leave his or her communities better than he or she
found them;
- WHEREAS the killing of unarmed Black men and women has left young people searching for answers to incredibly
complicated and infuriating questions;
- WHEREAS right now that means affirming that we are committed to
the emotional and physical safety of Black students. It means that our schools and classrooms must be safe spaces for dialogue and support on the
issues raised by the Black Lives Matter movement;
- WHEREAS proclaiming that Black Lives Matter does not negate our
commitment to all of our students. In fact, we believe that challenging
all of our students and colleagues to recognize the innate value of Black lives will help all of
our students grow because all lives
cannot matter until Black lives do;
- WHEREAS historically, when Black people have fought for a more
democratic society, the lives of all people have improved. Each time
barriers to Black people’s potential have been erected, our whole society
has suffered;
- WHEREAS educators know that each of our students has different
needs and that none of their lives end at our classroom doors. When our
students are hungry or struggle emotionally, they do not learn as well as
they otherwise could. When our students witness or experience violence,
they suffer emotionally and physically. To maximize student potential, our
school system must meet the needs of our students in different ways. Right
now, it is especially important for Black students to know that we value
them,
- WHEREAS problems in our schools mirror those in our society. Society is plagued with poverty, growing inequality, and violence. For our schools to be safe and centers of respect for the educational process, students, staff, parents and community must all come together for the betterment of our students’ future now; and growing inequality, and violence. For our schools to be safe and centers of respect for the educational process, students, staff, parents and community must all come together for the betterment of our students’ future now; and
- WHEREAS the problems mirrored in schools can only be fully addressed with a united effort of community and school coming together; now, therefore, be it community and school coming together; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, that Mona Shores Public Schools:
- Will strive to create spaces for discussion
and dialogue,
as well as continue to focus on hiring a more diverse group of support
staff, educators, and administrators in the district.;
- Will continue to use and
refine quality restorative justice practices district-wide, with the goal
of training all staff in those practices;
- Will expand the role and
scope of the Culture and Diversity Committee— to be comprised of community,
parents, educators, Board members and students and structured at the
Superintendent’s discretion — to assist in reviewing, strengthening, and creating
curriculum and policy related to the issues raised by the this movement,
the efforts to derail the school-to-prison pipeline, the broader
historical experience of the Black community, and present schooling
experience;
- Charges the above Culture and Diversity
Committee with assisting in recommending and then implementing policy and
curriculum
and establishing quality dialog with staff, parents, students and
community;
- Will call on student leaders of
all types to participate in advancing this discussion and implementation;
- Will continue to create a curriculum
that is diverse and intentionally anti-racist that includes but is not
limited to issues and events in Black history and Black culture such as
Jim Crow laws, segregation, the creation of jazz and hip-hop, Juneteenth,
Tulsa Massacre, redlining and the failures of the Fair Housing Act of
1968, the whitewashing of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., code-switching,
achievements in media and culture, and other historic events and racist crimes in
American history;
- Will include discussions of
biases, racial microaggressions, school-wide data on race and discipline, fears,
cultural ignorance, and stereotypes of Black youth;
- Will continue to properly discipline
students and faculty when they exhibit discriminatory or racist behavior, and maintain clearly
delineated consequences of discriminatory and racist behavior such as mandatory anti-racism
education;
- Will train school staffs
in methods of de-escalation, mindfulness, creating a culture of trust, and
cultural relevance;
- Will review its programs that
may be contributing to unfair, unequal power relationships with community
and school policing;
and
- That the goals of this process
include bringing the community into our schools and
strengthening schools as centers of support for communities.

All of them negative.

All of them negative.
The DNC capitalizes Blacks, Latinos, and Asian Americans — but white is not capitalized.
They really hate whitey.
Read all the hate and wonder why anyone would vote democrat.In more than 80 pages in the draft platform published by Politico, whites are mentioned 15 times, all critical, including three references to white supremacy or supremacists and one to white nationalists. The document doesn’t capitalize white as it does Black, Latinos, Asian Americans, and Native Americans.In most mentions, the reference is to how whites are better off at the expense of others. And the promise often is to “close the gap” between minorities and whites, though no solutions are offered..Below are the 15 references to whites:
- We will never amplify or legitimize the voices of bigotry, racism, misogyny, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, or white supremacy.
- Median incomes are lower and poverty rates are higher for Black Americans, Latinos, Native Americans, and some Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders, compared to median white households.
- And there is a persistent, pernicious racial wealth gap that holds millions of Americans back, with the typical white household holding six times more wealth than the typical Latino family and 10 times more wealth than the typical Black family.
- Our counterterrorism priorities, footprint, and tools should shift accordingly, including to respond to the growing threat from white supremacist and other right-wing terrorist groups...

Trump's Unidentified Stormtroopers in Portland? Some Facts ... - Louder With Crowder
Before Donald Trump sent his "unidentified secret police" or "storm troopers" to Portland, there have been 50 days of peaceful riots, and elected officials in Portland have shown no interest in doing anything about it.
While you may not have heard much about the riots, I'm sure most of you have heard about the unidentified federal agents whisking away peaceful protesters in unmarked vans and jive like that. If it sounds unbelievable, that's because according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Mark Morgan, it is.

Democrats Claim Stopping Portland Rioting Is An ‘Attack On Democracy’
"...Leftist gaslighting (manipulate (someone) by psychological means into questioning their own sanity.) over the deployment of federal agents to address months of nightly riots in the city of Portland, Oregon has reached epic proportions.
The New York Times published an article on Friday entitled “Federal Agents Unleash Militarized Crackdown on Portland.”
It begins:
Federal agents dressed in camouflage and tactical gear have taken to the streets of Portland, unleashing tear gas, bloodying protesters and pulling some people into unmarked vans in what Gov. Kate Brown of Oregon has called ‘a blatant abuse of power.’
The extraordinary use of federal force in recent days, billed as an attempt to tamp down persistent unrest and protect government property, has infuriated local leaders who say the agents have stoked tensions.
‘This is an attack on our democracy,’ Mayor Ted Wheeler of Portland said.
Democrats’ claims of “unmarked jackbooted stormtrooper thugs randomly rounding up people” stem from the following incident...

Police union president says Chicago mayor is 'running the Titanic into an iceberg intentionally' - TheBlaze
Lightfoot has previously said that any federal intervention would cause "chaos" and "lawlessness."
"The mayor likes to use the word 'unhinged,' but the ironic part is the mayor became unhinged," Catanzara railed. "I wish I could show you the text messages that she sent me over the weekend as soon as she found out I sent the request to President Trump."
He added, "She was the one who totally became unhinged, unprofessional, childish, and it was really pathetic for the leader of a city."

"Democrats have circulated a draft of their proposed 2020 platform.
In its present form, it would be the most left-wing platform in the history of U.S. presidential politics.
Amidst much verbiage, it includes many extremist ideas, including:
1. “Systemic racism.” The platform begins from the premise that the United States suffers from “systemic racism in our economy and our society.” Having condemned the country they seek to govern, Democrats offer their radical solutions.
3. Declaring housing a “right.” Providing housing for everyone is a worthy goal, but declaring it a “right” is a socialist ruse that creates massive problems. Just ask South Africa, which has a “right” to housing — and millions living in shacks.
5. “Card check.” This system eliminates the secret ballot in union elections and allows organizers to intimidate workers until they agree to form a union. Even left-wing George McGovern opposed “card check” last time Democrats tried it.
8. Cutting police. Though it is careful to avoid the actual words “defund the police,” the Democratic draft platform describes minority communities as “overpoliced,” meaning they will cut police in the areas that need the most help.
11. Reparations for slavery. We fought a bloody Civil War to end slavery. Democrats want to “study” reparations, even though it would be impossible to determine who should pay and who should benefit, or how it would help anyone.
23. Paying Palestinian terrorists. The Democrat promise to “restore” funding to the Palestinians that was cut because U.S. taxpayer money was being used to pay stipends to jailed terrorists and perpetuate the Palestinian refugee “problem.”...Read 'em all!

Despicable: City of L.A. Fines Businesses for Hanging "Open for Business" Signs
NBC4 in Los Angeles is reporting that an increasing number of businesses have received hefty citations and fines from the City of Los Angeles for supposedly violating permit laws by hanging banners on their businesses to help customers see that they are open through the pandemic.
Here is a list of things you can currently do in the city of Los Angeles with impunity:
- defy pandemic stay-at-home orders to protest in crowded streets by the tens of thousands
- throw Molotov cocktails at police
- break the windows of both private and public property
- burn down neighborhood businesses
- tear down monuments on public property
- drag innocent commuters from their cars, beat them mercilessly, and destroy their vehicles
- poop in public streets
- openly use illegal drugs on public streets
- steal cars or bicycles
- erect tent cities on private property
- steal up to $950 of merchandise per day without fear of prosecution…under state law
It’s a great time to be a criminal in the City of Angels, but if you’re a business owner, L.A. Mayor Eric Garcetti will find you and make sure you are fined and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law for…
Are you ready for this?
Hanging a “We are open” sign in front of your business.
Above the entrance of the Crave Cafe in Studio City–where business is down 70% during the pandemic–the owner last month hung a banner that says “OPEN FOR TAKE-OUT AND DELIVERY.”“It really was important because it helped us in communicating to the community that we were still open, and many of them don’t know that,” said Rana Shalhoub, Crave Cafe’s owner.
But Shalhoub found a notice in her mail this week from LA’s Department of Building and Safety, ordering her to take down the banner and fining her $356. She promptly removed the banner...Read all.
