Pelosi praises National Guard presence in DC after denouncing it during BLM riots last year - TheBlaze:
Despite previously criticizing President Trump for deploying the reserve force during last year's Black Lives Matter protests, in recent days Speaker Pelosi used the opportunity to thank troops stationed in Washington, D.C. for protecting "democracy" after a pro-Trump mob stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6.
Rand Paul: Those immune to coronavirus should 'throw your mask away' and tell 'Fauci to take a leap'
Rand Paul: Those immune to coronavirus should 'throw your mask away' and tell 'Fauci to take a leap':
Sen. Rand Paul warned this week that pro-coronavirus lockdown advocates will “never let up” and that they are defying science.
"They will never let up. There are doctors out there saying ... we may need to wear [masks] forever,” the Kentucky Republican told Fox News’s Laura Ingraham on Friday. “That is ridiculous, and that defies the science."
Trump exposed the left's plan to cancel the right
Trump exposed the left's plan to cancel the right:
History may remember President Donald Trump best not only as an artist of dealmaking and a courageous leader, but also as a teacher.
By speaking truth to the left's power, he exposed the fear, hatred and violence inside leftists.
One example of this has been captured in a hidden-camera recording of remarks by Michael Beller, principal counsel for PBS, the Public Broadcasting Service. His words were so hateful and indefensible that PBS fired him immediately when this Project Veritas video went public days ago.
Prepare to defend your home, your family. The democrats are now in total control!-----A Michigan prosecutor says no thanks to cash bail. Will others follow? | Bridge Michigan
A Michigan prosecutor says no thanks to cash bail. Will others follow? | Bridge Michigan
"On any given day in jails across Michigan, thousands of inmates sit behind bars as they await a criminal trial for a simple reason: They didn’t have the money to post bail.
...But that is set to change in Washtenaw County, as new County Prosecutor Eli Savit will no longer seek cash bail as a condition of release before trial.
...Maddock told Bridge in an email: “Sadly, our criminal justice system is under attack and is being pushed to benefit criminals instead of victims. When all these people released with zero bail don’t show up, then what are they going to do? That’s what we all need to ask to ensure the safety of our neighborhoods.”...Read all.
Why we are losing the education war!-----Texas State Historical Assn’s Chief Historian Says the Alamo Was an ‘Insignificant’ Battle and Represents ‘Whiteness.’ What Do Texas History Experts and the Facts Say?
Texas State Historical Assn’s Chief Historian Says the Alamo Was an ‘Insignificant’ Battle and Represents ‘Whiteness.’ What Do Texas History Experts and the Facts Say?
"This past week, Texas State Historical Association chief historian Walter Buenger made two controversial assertions regarding the Alamo in a story published by USA Today.
"Although the battle has become a symbol of patriotism and freedom for many Texans and Americans, like the Confederate monuments erected after the Civil War, the myth of the Alamo has been used to “commemorate whiteness,” according to Walter L Buenger, Texas State Historical Association chair.
...“It became in some ways a sort of symbol of Anglo-Saxon preeminence,” he said. “The Alamo became this symbol of what it meant to be white.”
Buenger is currently the Texas State Historical Association’s chief historian as well as holding a major post at the University of Texas at Austin.
The TSHA is not a state agency, it’s a nonprofit, but it plays a key role in history education in Texas schools, and of being an authoritative repository of the state’s history through its online Handbook of Texas.
As Michelle Haas, editor of the Copano Bay Press, notes, Buenger’s role lends him a great deal of influence and power over how Texas history is recorded and taught...Read all!

Capitol rioter arrested for encouraging violence is an anti-Trump agitator and a Black Lives Matter supporter - TheBlaze:
A Utah man arrested for his part in the rioting at the U.S. Capitol admitted that he was not a Trump supporter but in fact an anti-Trump activist.
POLL: Will you stay loyal to the Republican party if they help the Democrats impeach Trump?
John Earle Sullivan told KUTV after the riot that he is the founder of Insurgence USA, and that he does not align with the president politically. He said that he founded Insurgence USA after the killing of George Floyd while in police custody in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
So much racism and hate in this Brookings screed. Remember "Brookings" when they pretend to be "non-partisan".-----What the Capitol insurgency reveals about white supremacy and law enforcement
What the Capitol insurgency reveals about white supremacy and law enforcement
"Make no mistake, the Capitol insurgency was about making America great for white people.
In erecting a hangman’s noose, waving the Confederate flag, and wearing white nationalist paraphernalia, including an Auschwitz Concentration Camp shirt, the domestic terrorists showed America they fundamentally believe in maintaining and enacting white supremacy.
Donald Trump, and Trumpism as an ideology, has opened a Pandora’s box of hate into the American mainstream, giving the permission some racists needed to reveal themselves proudly and wreak havoc on symbols of American democracy that have withstood wars and attacks for centuries...Read all.

Branson's Virgin rocket takes satellites to orbit - BBC News
"Sir Richard Branson's rocket company Virgin Orbit has succeeded in putting its first satellites in space.
Ten payloads in total were lofted on the same rocket, which was launched from under the wing of one of the entrepreneur's old 747 jumbos.

By using a jet plane as the launch platform, he can theoretically send up spacecraft from anywhere in the world...Read all.
