Rand Paul Offers Blunt Two-Word Response to #FauciEmails - Louder With Crowder
Rand Paul Offers Blunt Two-Word Response to #FauciEmails - Louder With Crowder:
Rand Paul woke up this morning. Maybe put in some work on the Peloton. Fed the dog, poured a cup of coffee, and checked Twitter trends. At which point he rolled up a joint so he could truly enjoy the #FauciEmails. Okay, so I don't know if any of that is true. But it's the way I imagine the senator started his morning. His nemesis and intellectual punching bag was trending in the most amazing way possible. With an email trail showing Senator Paul, my editor Courtney, and others on the right were right all along.
Senator Paul finally broke his silence with a simple, two-word tweet:

Democrats label voter ID laws evil and racist but ignore the fact that 46 of 47 European democracies have them - TheBlaze:
A recent survey conducted by the Crime Prevention Research Center found that election integrity measures such as voter photo ID requirements — which now are referred to as the "new Jim Crow" by progressives in America — are broadly accepted by democratic governments globally.
In fact, a whopping 46 of 47 European democracies require a government-issued photo ID in order to vote, and the one exception — the United Kingdom —

He recounted the horrors of the Tulsa race massacre in gruesome detail, and it was powerful stuff.
Then he kept talking.
He talked about how many members of Congress were Klan members (without mentioning party affiliation).
...And he repeated the opinion of the intelligence community that terrorism from white supremacists is the greatest threat to our homeland.
Just last month, Attorney General Merrick Garland testified that our greatest domestic security threat comes from “racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists, specifically those who advocate for the superiority of the white race.”

Michigan health professionals must undergo implicit bias training under new rules - mlive.com
"A year after the COVID-19 pandemic began to highlight racial disparities in the health care system, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer announced new rules on Tuesday that will require Michigan health care providers to undergo implicit bias training.
“In the first few months of the pandemic, Black Michiganders represented over 35% of confirmed cases despite making up 14% of our total population. Black and Latino Michiganders were also twice as likely to die from this virus than white Michiganders. But this disparity went, of course, beyond COVID,” Whitmer said, pointing to higher rates of infant mortality and premature death among minority populations...Read all.
The Award for Worst Political Strategy in History Goes to Republicans Who Sided with Communist-Democrats in Stealing 2020 Election
The Award for Worst Political Strategy in History Goes to Republicans Who Sided with Communist-Democrats in Stealing 2020 Election
They never sided with the President once.
- The Republican Party successfully captured the record for ‘Worst Political Strategy in World History.’
- There is no way they could have performed any worse. What were they thinking?
"...The Democrats did absolutely nothing in four years to help America.
They lied and called him a Russian puppet (some real ignorant Democrats still do!)
...It was clear the media and the Deep State were in on the Trump coup, but what wasn’t totally clear till the end was that the Republicans were too.
That’s when Bill Barr took off his mask, so did Mike Pence, Mitch McConnell, and Kevin McCarthy.
The 2020 Election came.
...This was no doubt planned ahead of time, but this is when the Republican Party engaged in the worst political strategy in world history.
...Had they sided with the President, Republicans would have been on the side of honor and the truth. They would have owned their base for decades.
Had they stuck with the President they would have eventually won, as we shall see in coming weeks. (What’s going to happen when states like Arizona start reporting that President Trump won the state by hundreds of thousands of votes?)...Read all.

"If the Wuhan lab-leak hypothesis is true, expect a political earthquake.
"...What if this crazy story turns out to be true?
The answer is that this is the kind of thing that could obliterate the faith of millions.
And it should, because the institutions in question were not worthy of faith, and were themselves faithless. Plus:`
Consider the details of the story as we have learned them in the last few weeks:• Lab leaks happen. They aren’t the result of conspiracies: “a lab accident is an accident,” as Nathan Robinson points out; they happen all the time, in this country and in others, and people die from them.
• There is evidence that the lab in question, which studies bat coronaviruses, may have been conducting what is called “gain of function” research, a dangerous innovation in which diseases are deliberately made more virulent. By the way, right-wingers didn’t dream up “gain of function”: all the cool virologists have been doing it (in this country and in others) even as the squares have been warning against it for years.
• There are strong hints that some of the bat-virus research at the Wuhan lab was funded in part by the American national-medical establishment — which is to say, the lab-leak hypothesis doesn’t implicate China alone...
In fact, when virtually every institution in America decided in lockstep that it was “racist” to call it a Chinese virus, or Wuhan virus, even though it was clearly a virus that came from Wuhan, China, it told the discerning observer two things:
- First, that it was indeed China’s fault, and
- second, that all of these institutions were on the Chinese payroll, or at least on the Chinese team.
Those “experts” were arrogant, ignorant, and often dishonest and corrupt. Why wouldn’t people lose faith in them? Why shouldn’t they?

Right. Burning cities and pure racist attacks against all non-BLM suck-ups had nothing to do with it.-----New York Times Blames ‘GOP Elites’ For BLM’s Decline In Popularity Nationwide
New York Times Blames ‘GOP Elites’ For BLM’s Decline In Popularity Nationwide
"The left-wing organization Black Lives Matter saw its popularity fall from unprecedented heights over the last year, not because Americans learned of its stated marxist agenda or corruption, but because of “increased politicization by elites” in the Republican Party, according to an in-depth profile from the legacy media.
...The Times later admitted positive views of the BLM organization “did not last long” and “swiftly declined” across every “racial group.”
Rather than blame this universal decline on the BLM organization, the Times blamed the GOP.
“The precipitous decline in support … mirrors the increased politicization of the issue by elites,” the article, by Jennifer Chudy and Hakeem Jefferson, continued.
“In the days and weeks following Floyd’s death, Republican politicians quickly turned attention away from the actions of a murderous police officer to those individuals protesting the injustice.”...Read all.

China Strikes Again, This Time Censoring 'Friends' Reunion - Louder With Crowder
China Strikes Again, This Time Censoring 'Friends' Reunion - Louder With Crowder: Know that if you are among those overly excited for the Friends reunion, I am judging you. More so than I've ever judged the woke zoomers whining how "problematic" the show is when they accidentally see a rerun. But we're not here to talk about the actors reuniting. Or, how Matthew Perry "allegedly' irished up his coffee from Central Perk. Because while the more basic among you were organizing watch parties, the Communist Chinese Government was taking a break from Chinese water torturing poor John Cena long enough to censor what was allowed on Chinese television.

Black Penn State profs report ‘noose’ behind house; ends up being part of neighbor’s swing set
"As reported by the PSU student newspaper Daily Collegian, the professors said the incident was “deeply distressing to them and their family.”

...PSU President Eric Barron sprung into action, posting a statement “expressing concern” about the incident and “offering support.”
...Alas, according to the professors’ neighbor who was interviewed by police, the “noose” actually was part of a swing set...Read all.
