'Take these masks off of my child!': Fed-up mom of kindergarten student goes off on school board for continuing mask mandate through next year - TheBlaze

'Take these masks off of my child!': Fed-up mom of kindergarten student goes off on school board for continuing mask mandate through next year - TheBlaze: 

She added that citizens voted for the school board members — and not for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

"We chose you to make decisions that would be in our children's best interest," Taylor told the board. "Enforcing 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9-year-old little children to cover their noses and their mouths — where they breathe — for seven hours a day, every day for the last nine months for a virus that you know doesn't affect them! That is not in their best interest!"

But who is he gonna help?

 

The enemy of America is the American media-----The Real Crisis Is the Media's Disregard for Facts and Truth | Newsbusters

The Real Crisis Is the Media's Disregard for Facts and Truth | Newsbusters
"Two different topics, but the same problem: 

1. There is no crisis at the border. 

2. And “authorities say (Ma’Khia Bryant) was wielding a knife.”

• Thus reported, successively, Politico and NBC News produced two vivid examples of exactly why millions of Americans no longer trust the mainstream liberal media.

The first example comes from Politico, caught in the act by The Washington Examiner with this headlined story: "Politico forbids 'crisis' when describing border surge, despite Biden's own use."
The Examiner’s story began this way:
“Don't call it a ‘crisis.’

Politico is the latest news outlet to order its staff not to use the word ‘crisis’ when reporting on the massive influx of illegal immigrants at the southern border..

Meanwhile, over there at NBC, the thwarted stabbing rampage by teenager Ma’Khia Bryant in Columbus, Ohio was, shall we say, straight out of make-it-up land. NewsBusters’ own Nicholas Fondacaro caught the Peacock network dead to rights -- er -- dead to wrongs -- as it played make-it-up with the story. 

Nicholas’s quite accurate headline: "NBC Deceptively Edits 911 Call, Casts Doubt on Cop’s Need to Protect a Life."

He reported -- accurately -- this:
“On the same day former police offer Derek Chauvin was convicted of murdering George Floyd, a Columbus, Ohio officer shot and killed a 16-year-old black teen, Ma’khia Bryant. 

Though the left would like to conflate the two incidents, the latter commanded a huge difference: the teen was about to plunge a knife into another girl. 

But NBC Nightly News didn’t want to clearly show that part of the body camera footage on Wednesday, and they deceptively edited the 911 call to leave out witness accounts of an attempted stabbing.”
Nicholas compared the NBC report to those of ABC and CBS, noting this oh-so-curious NBC “reporting.”
“And whenever the subject of Bryant wielding a knife was broached, it was framed (by NBC) as something that was purported by police. 

‘Just before yesterday's verdict a police officer shot and killed a 16-year-old black girl in Columbus, Ohio, saying she was threatening others with a knife,’ announced anchor Lester Holt.”
Mind you, the video of this incident was everywhere...Read all.

Must READ!-----The Failure of Imperial College Modeling Is Far Worse than We Knew

The Failure of Imperial College Modeling Is Far Worse than We Knew

"A fascinating exchange played out in the UK’s House of Lords on June 2, 2020. Neil Ferguson, the physicist at Imperial College London who created the main epidemiology model behind the lockdowns, faced his first serious questioning about the predictive performance of his work.

Ferguson predicted catastrophic death tolls back on March 16, 2020 unless governments around the world adopted his preferred suite of nonpharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) to ward off the pandemic. Most countries followed his advice, particularly after the United Kingdom and United States governments explicitly invoked his report as a justification for lockdowns.

Ferguson’s team at Imperial would soon claim credit for saving millions of lives through these policies – a figure they arrived at through a ludicrously unscientific exercise where they purported to validate their model by using its own hypothetical projections as a counterfactual of what would happen without lockdowns. But the June hearing in Parliament drew attention to another real-world test of the Imperial team’s modeling, this one based on actual evidence.

As Europe descended into the first round of its now year-long experiment with shelter-in-place restrictions, Sweden famously shirked the strategy recommended by Ferguson. In doing so, they also created the conditions of a natural experiment to see how their coronavirus numbers performed against the epidemiology models...

I was one of the first people to call attention to the Uppsala adaptation of Ferguson’s model back on April 30, 2020. Even at that early date, the model showed clear signs of faltering. 
...Imperial College wildly overstated the projected deaths in each country under both its “unmitigated” scenario and its NPI-reliant “social distancing” scenario – including by orders of magnitude in several cases.
Similar exaggerations may be found in almost every other country where Imperial released projections, even as most of them opted to lock down. 
...Just over one year ago, the epidemiology modeling of Neil Ferguson and Imperial College played a preeminent role in shutting down most of the world. 

The exaggerated forecasts of this modeling team are now impossible to downplay or deny, and extend to almost every country on earth. 

Indeed, they may well constitute one of the greatest scientific failures in modern human history."

Fauci hits out at Sen. Ron Johnson for questioning 'push to make sure everybody gets a vaccine' - TheBlaze

Fauci hits out at Sen. Ron Johnson for questioning 'push to make sure everybody gets a vaccine' - TheBlaze: 

Following backlash over his remarks, Johnson issued a statement Friday, saying: Everyone should have the right to gather information, consult with their doctor and decide for themselves whether to get vaccinated. I strongly supported Operation Warp Speed, and celebrated its astonishingly rapid success. Now I believe government's role (and therefore my role) is to help ensure transparency so that people have as much information as possible to make an informed decision for themselves.

China’s strange endorsement of ‘net zero’

China’s strange endorsement of ‘net zero’

“China’s betrayal of its commitment to Hong Kong, its duplicity over the COVID pandemic and its dissembling on treatment of Uighurs suggest the Middle Kingdom cannot be trusted to keep its word.” – New York Post

“Duggan Flanakin recently commented on how India and Africa are building more coal and gas-fired power plants … to modernize their countries, create jobs, and lift their people out of poverty, misery and disease … while America, Europe and other Western nations feverishly abandon fossil fuels, and demand that poor developing countries rely entirely on wind, solar and biofuel power, without regard for the economic, employment, environmental or human rights consequences,” writes Paul Driessen.

“In this final article in his 3-part series, Duggan looks at what Chinese President Xi Jinping is so cleverly saying – and what he and his country are actually doing on fossil fuels, “green” energy and global cooperation.”

Women's Advocates Alarmed as Soros-backed San Francisco DA Drops Domestic Violence Charges: 

Women’s groups are expressing alarm as San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin has decreased the rate at which domestic violence charges are filed, allowing many suspects to go free and potentially putting women and children in danger.

Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson Explains It's Not Racist to Require ID for Voting

Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson Explains It's Not Racist to Require ID for Voting: 

Am I to believe that black Americans who have overcome the atrocities of slavery, who were victorious in the civil rights movement, and now sit in the highest levels of this government could not figure out how to get a free ID to secure their votes? That they need to be coddled by politicians because they don’t think we can figure out how to make our voices heard?

Are you kidding me? The notion that people must be protected from a free ID to secure their votes is not just insane—it is insulting.

And let me tell you something about this. This doesn’t have anything to do with justice, this has everything to do with power.

Data Doesn’t Support Narrative Of 'School Sports Caused The Surge'

Data Doesn’t Support Narrative Of 'School Sports Caused The Surge'

• 
  Media outlets have claimed that youth sports are responsible for the latest surge of COVID-19 cases in Michigan.
• WDET carried an April 7 story with the headline: “Michigan’s Latest Wave of COVID-19 Infections Being Driven by Youth Sports, Child Care.”
• “Unlike previous surges, Michigan’s latest wave of COVID-19 infections is being driven by young people,” the article said.
  

But state data doesn’t back up that claim.

Instead, it shows there have been only 1,189 cases from K-12 sports and youth club/travel sports from Jan. 1 to Apr. 17. 

That’s 0.35% of all cases over that period...Read all!

"...more unionized..." That's the political driver folks. Money and power to a few.-----AOC Introduces a New and Improved Green New Deal

AOC Introduces a New and Improved Green New Deal

"With Representative Ocasio-Cortez reintroducing her Green New Deal bill and Joe Biden pledging to halve carbon emissions in the U.S. in less than 10 years, and after the “Climate Summit” goes virtual on April 22, America is going to be so green we’ll be mistaken for an artichoke.

There’s no time to lose.

 The earth is doomed unless we stop poisoning our atmosphere with the exhalation of so many politicians and world leaders.

...“We’re going to transition to a 100 percent carbon free-economy, that is 

• more unionized, 
• more just, 
• more dignified and 
• guarantees more health care and 
• housing than we ever have before,” Ocasio-Cortez said at a press conference overlooking the National Mall. 

“Do we intend on sending a message to the Biden administration that we need to go bigger and bolder? The answer is absolutely yes.”

Joe Biden Warns July Fourth May Be Canceled if Americans Don't Do What They're Told - Louder With Crowder

Joe Biden Warns July Fourth May Be Canceled if Americans Don't Do What They're Told - Louder With Crowder: 

Last month, Joe Biden addressed the American people. We were told if we train, say our prayers, and eat our vitamins, we may be allowed to celebrate the Fourth of July. But only in small groups and only if we do what he tells us to do. I'm sure you remember what he told us to do. I'd say it myself, but I'm trying to work around the Big Tech hall monitors. Biden has been busy for the past month pouring gasoline over racial tensions and creating a crisis on the border where there wasn't a crisis. But don't think the old man has forgotten about July Fourth!

How will Biden's climate plan affect everyday Americans | Daily Mail Online

How Biden's climate plan could limit you to eat just one burger a MONTH, cost $3.5K a year per person in taxes, force you to spend $55K on an electric car and 'crush' American jobs

• Joe Biden announced the goal to cut emissions by 2030, compared with 2005 levels, at the start of a two-day climate summit on Thursday 
  
• He vowed the plan, which would set the US on a path of a zero emissions economy by no later than 2050, would create jobs and boost economies
• But he is yet to release any firm details on exactly how such a plan will affect the daily lives of ordinary Americans 
• It could prompt sweeping changes that could affect how Americans eat, drive and heat their homes 
• While Biden hasn't released details, experts and recent studies have laid out what would need to change by 2030 to reach the goal.

...Americans may have to cut their red meat consumption by a whopping 90 percent and cut their consumption of other animal based foods in half. 

Gradually making those changes by 2030 could see diet-related greenhouse gas emissions reduced by 50 percent, according to a study by Michigan University's Center for Sustainable Systems...Read all.
