A nation of wimps!-----First domino? Texas university announces it’s starting fall semester almost entirely online
First domino? Texas university announces it’s starting fall semester almost entirely online
...including two “principle adjustments:
- ‘Unfortunately, the Delta variant has proven more contagious than previous strains,’ school leaders said
"The leadership of the University of Texas San Antonio sent an email to staff, faculty, and students Wednesday saying that because of COVID fears, at least the first three weeks of the fall semester will be an online experience for the vast majority of students.
1) Most courses will be held online for the first three weeks of the semester.
2) A mandatory COVID-19 testing requirement will be put into place for students, faculty and staff.

...So, when all else fails, blame racism or sexism, or both.
That seems to be the strategy the support team has settled on. The L.A. Times has an article on Kamala’s low approval rating.
...So, when all else fails, blame racism or sexism, or both.
...Kamala’s women supporters think there are sexist overtones to her press coverage, much like that of Hillary. Really?
That’s a trope that Hillary Clinton used in both her run against Obama in the Democrat primary in 2008 and then in the presidential campaign against Trump in 2016.

DeSantis Won't PayOfficials Who Force Your Kids into Masks - Louder With Crowder
DeSantis Won't PayOfficials Who Force Your Kids into Masks - Louder With Crowder:
America's Governor Ron DeSantis has declared no more local mask mandates in Florida. If YOU want to wear a mask, God bless. But you can't force other people to refuse service to people who don't. Some local school boards are trying to step to him and say they are going to mandate kids wear masks anyway. So, DeSantis says if they do, they won't be getting paid.

It's time for alarm bells.
- The time before the nightmare.
It's time for alarm bells.
It's time for me to play the part of Paul Revere: "The communist tyrants and dictators are coming! The communist tyrants and dictators are coming!"
They're coming first for unvaccinated Americans.
This is 1938.
This is 1938.
I'm a Jew. I now understand just a little of what it felt like to be a Jew in 1938.
No, it's not the Holocaust.
Nothing can be compared to the Holocaust.
Ever.
But 1938 was not the Holocaust.
But 1938 was not the Holocaust.
It was the pre-Holocaust.
It was the time before the nightmare, when the foundation was being laid to destroy the freedom, free speech, businesses and lives of millions of Jews.
Everything happening today to the American people ... to the U.S. Constitution ... to freedom ... and particularly to unvaccinated Americans reminds me of 1938.

Subway Franchises Demand Company Drop Megan Rapinoe= - Louder With Crowder:
Marketing 101 teaches it's not a smart idea for your product to be represented by someone most of your customer base hates. Marketing 2021 teaches to screw your customers, and instead pander to woke political activists so that they don't get Twitter to say mean things about you. Subway only took the later course and is finding out the hard way how much people hate 3rd place soccer player Megan Rapinoe. You've no doubt seen this commercial. Or the shorter, less annoying one where they cut out as much of Rapinoe as they can.

Three socialist policies in the United States - American Thinker
Three socialist policies in the United States - American Thinker
"Years ago, socialism was described as government control of the factors of production — land, labor, and capital.
Communism was government ownership, rather than simply control, of the means of production.
This contrasted with our system in the United States, which was based on private, not government, control and ownership of the means of production.
But do we still have that system of ownership free from government? Think about the following three stories:
- Biden Administration Approves Rules Forcing Companies to hire Minority, LGBTQ+ Executives And Publicly Disclose Diversity
- Biden to announce a target for 50% electric vehicle sales as he unveils stricter emissions rules
