Two police officers allegedly paid a visit to the home of a podcaster in California because of a threat that was posted on Twitter against Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.). However, the podcaster didn't make the threat toward AOC. Instead, it was reportedly another Twitter user who replied to the podcaster's original tweet where he benignly said the Democratic representative was "incredibly underwhelming" in an interview.

Pub. 1 year ago. UN predicted "...vicious side-effects for women..." Why do governments continue lock-down?----Coronavirus pandemic exacerbates inequalities for women, UN warns
Coronavirus pandemic exacerbates inequalities for women, UN warns | Coronavirus | The Guardia
- ‘Limited gains made in the past decades’ toward gender equality ‘are at risk of being rolled back’, UN policy brief said
"A global economy in freefall, 1.52 billion students stuck at home, dramatic swells in domestic violence reports and healthcare systems overwhelmed by a single disease all portend vicious side-effects for women during the Covid-19 pandemic, the United Nations warns.
“There is no single society where we’ve achieved equality between men and women, and so this pandemic is being layered on top of existing inequalities, and it’s exacerbating those inequalities,” Nahla Valji, the UN’s senior gender adviser to the executive office of the secretary general, told the Guardian.
The current public health emergency will probably mean a disproportionate economic impact for women...Read all.
Wow, government housing! What an innovative idea!-----Biden’s Infrastructure Bill Includes Making ‘Diverse’ Neighborhoods Across America Through Zoning Laws
Biden’s Infrastructure Bill Includes Making ‘Diverse’ Neighborhoods Across America Through Zoning Laws
"The focus of President Joe Biden’s $2.3 trillion infrastructure bill is allegedly to address aging infrastructure across the country, but the massive bill covers a vast amount of other spending, including money for “diversifying” neighborhoods.
This portion of Biden’s American Jobs Plan would change zoning laws to end single family home neighborhoods and allow for multiple unit “affordable” or low-income rental housing....
...In contrast to former President Donald Trump’s Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) Opportunity Zones program that partnered the federal government with private sector investors to create less rental housing and increase home ownership, Biden’s plan uses tax breaks for state and local governments, the Fact Sheet states:
“[Biden] is calling on Congress to pass the innovative, bipartisan Neighborhood Homes Investment Act (NHIA). Offering $20 billion worth of NHIA tax credits over the next five years will result in approximately 500,000 homes built or rehabilitated, creating a pathway for more families to buy a home and start building wealth.”
Reuters reported on the shift from free markets to government control:
President Joe Biden is seeking to ease a national affordable housing shortage by pushing local governments to allow apartment buildings in neighborhoods that are currently restricted to single-family homes...
Biden’s plan even designates which workers will benefit from this housing project — “put union building trade workers to work upgrading homes and businesses to save families money,” the Fact Sheet states...Read all.
BLACK BBC GUEST SUGGESTS ALL REPUBLICANS, ALL WHITE MALES ARE AUTOMATICALLY RACIST.

BLACK BBC GUEST SUGGESTS ALL REPUBLICANS, ALL WHITE MALES ARE AUTOMATICALLY RACIST.
A Black woman who went on BBC as a guest opposite Eric Bolling, the former Fox News and Sinclair Broadcasting Group host — and a White male — basically said that if you’re Republican, you’re racist; if you’re a White male, and profess to care about the Black community, you’re a liar.
This is exactly what’s wrong with Democrats in America. They throw the race card wherever, whenever, at whomever they can, without care, concern or consideration for how wrong, how very wrong, they are — or how stupid it makes them sound.
Can’t make a logical argument? Accuse the other side of being racist. Can’t defend your view with facts? Label your verbal sparring opponent a racist.
...UPDATE (FROM GLENN): If you’d like to complain about this openly broadcast racial hatred, the BBC has a form for that.--Posted by

Nat'l Guard Association Chair: Up to 50 Migrants a Day Being Released into Communities with Less Than 1,000 People in Them
Nat'l Guard Association Chair: Up to 50 Migrants a Day Being Released into Communities with Less Than 1,000 People in Them:
On Friday’s broadcast of the Fox Business Network’s “Evening Edit,” National Guard Association Chairman Michael McGuire said that due to crowding in migrant facilities, Customs and Border Protection are releasing “up to 50 personnel per day” into communities “that have less than a thousand people in them. And that creates a humanitarian and a public health crisis for these very, very rural and under-resourced communities.”

Letting Hunter Biden Off Is A Message To Us Peasants by Kurt Schlichter
In the short term, this is infuriating.
"The fact that the loser spawn of Grandpa Badfinger is thumbing his coke-caked nose at the justice system represents not merely the tacky machinations of a crusty pol protecting the family Fredo.
It has a deeper and more cynical purpose – to show us that our overlords are unaccountable and that the law is now merely another implement in the regime’s toolkit of oppression.
- They are telling us that they and their scumbag progeny can do whatever they want, but that we can’t.
In the long term, it could bring down the system our garbage ruling caste inherited.
They are throwing it in our faces, thinking it’s a good plan to force us to submit.
Right now, hundreds of Americans are being prosecuted for trespassing inside their own Capitol building, and eager agents of the American Stasi are salivating at the idea of charging them with “sedition” for doing exactly what hordes of leftist dirtbags did in the past.
Of course, none of the leftist dirtbags were shot dead while unarmed by some cop whose name we still don’t know.
That’s another message.
- If you are a petty criminal dying of a self-inflicted fentanyl overdose while you resist arrest, we’ll know the name of the cop unlucky enough to be the guy arresting you when you expired. But cap an unarmed female vet for climbing through a window?
Shhhh.

Anti-Defamation League calls for Fox News to fire Tucker Carlson, saying ‘rhetoric was not just a dog whistle to racists — it was a bullhorn’
In a letter to Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott on Friday, the head of the ADL, Jonathan Greenblatt, said Carlson’s “rhetoric was not just a dog whistle to racists — it was a bullhorn.”
"The Anti-Defamation League has called for Fox News to fire prime-time opinion host Tucker Carlson because he defended a white-supremacist theory that says whites are being “replaced” by people of color.
The civil rights group listed numerous instances Carlson has used anti-immigrant language.
Those include
- saying immigration makes the U.S. “poorer and dirtier” and
- questioning whether white supremacy is real.
Greenblatt said that “given his long record of race-baiting, we believe it is time for Carlson to go.”
...It’s the first time the ADL has asked for Fox to fire Carlson, said the group’s spokesman Todd Gutnick, but it has contacted the network before about things Carlson has said...Read all.

- Internationally, levels of personal freedom continue to decrease; COVID has, of course, played a role, but the downward spiral started long before the pandemic.
"For freedom to flourish, democracies are required. Around the world, however, established democracies are in decline.
Again, the decline was occurring long before the pandemic hit.

No, democracy dies in Davos.
