It's ALL about POWER!-----Why Dr. Seuss Is Worth Defending

Why Dr. Seuss Is Worth Defending
  • Banishing him from library shelves is a slippery slope.
"...Disappearing books from library shelves gets us closer to the classic example of censorship, though of course a physical library possesses a finite amount of space and thus has to consider certain priorities. 
What's happening to Dr. Seuss is the result of a very specific kind of prioritization, however: One decided upon not by readers or the public at large, but by activist educators peddling a false narrative about the beloved child author's books and characters.
This narrative—the result of a highly misleading 2019 report on "Orientalism, anti-blackness, and white supremacy in Dr. Seuss's children's books"—has quickly become influential, motivating much of the recent shift away from Seuss among certain government officials, educators, libraries, and even private publishers...Read all.

"Ongoing coverage"-----Chauvin Pre-Trial Day 1: 3d Degree Murder Throws Wrench Into Jury Selection Process

Chauvin Pre-Trial Day 1: 3d Degree Murder Throws Wrench Into Jury Selection Process
  • Judge indicated jury selection would move forward unless an appeals court told him to stop pending a Minnesota Supreme Court review of the third-degree murder charge.
"Welcome back to our ongoing coverage of the Minnesota murder trial of Derek Chauvin, over the in-custody death of George Floyd.  
I am Attorney Andrew Branca for Law of Self Defense, providing guest commentary and analysis of this trial for Legal Insurrection.
As a reminder, I am “LIVE Parlering” the trial in real-time over at my Parler account, which you can find using my Parler handle: @LawofSelfDefense 
...The key cause of the hold-up is the uncertainty around the third-degree murder charge which the state wants to bring against Derek Chauvin, in addition to the second-degree murder and manslaughter charges on which he is currently charged.
Minnesota labels its various criminal offenses in a rather untraditional manner, so it’s worth looking at the actual criminal charges themselves.
With respect to the second-degree murder charge the relevant statute is § 609.19. 
Murder in the second degree, which is sub-divided into two major sections.  Subdivision 1 covers intentional murders.  
Chauvin is not charged under this section... Read all.

Incredibly, not a joke.


 

Totalitarian means it's total

Facebook--Evan Sayet
"We laugh at the stupidity of the Democrats who go after cartoon skunks, plastic potatoes and pancake syrups wondering
is ANYTHING too small for them to not be outraged about? 
The answer is no. 
Totalitarian means it's total -- right down to the tiniest things. 
It's the way it was in Nazi Germany, Stalinist Russia, Maoist China and every other Leftist regime. 
It's the way it is with the Woke Supremacist movement of today."

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released guidelines on how schools should reopen in February, which clearly stated that school reopening should not be conditional on having teachers and faculty vaccinated. In July, Dr. Robert Redfield, then-director of the CDC, cautioned about the psychological damage that lockdowns and remote schooling could inflict on children.

"Washington, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser and her appointees have repeatedly met with and hosted leaders from a leading organization in the Chinese Communist Party’s United Front.

What Lake did was not think like her peers, and not like Goodykoontz and the rest of the biased leftist media. Arizonans are not better off with her resignation. But her public exit brings a silver lining: It provides confirmation from someone at the top of the local TV hill that leftists have killed honest journalism in the country — even in their own neighborhoods.
