Heck, it wasn't THEIR money!-----Large lottery cash drawings were not enough to increase Covid-19 vaccination rates, study finds

Large lottery cash drawings were not enough to increase Covid-19 vaccination rates, study finds
  • Certain states offered Covid-19 lotteries with large cash drawings in an effort to increase their vaccination rates.
  • But the incentives did not successfully increase vaccination rates, new research shows.
The lottery slogan "You've got to be in it to win it" took on a whole new meaning this spring when certain states began offering large cash drawings for residents who got the Covid-19 vaccine.
But a new study finds that many people just weren't playing...Read all.

Civil Liberties Are Being Trampled by Exploiting "Insurrection" Fears. Congress's 1/6 Committee May Be the Worst Abuse Yet. - by Glenn Greenwald - Glenn Greenwald
  • Following the 9/11 script, objections to government overreach in the name of 1/6 are demonized as sympathy for terrorists. But government abuses pose the greater threat.
"When a population is placed in a state of sufficiently grave fear and anger regarding a perceived threat, concerns about the constitutionality, legality and morality of measures adopted in the name of punishing the enemy typically disappear. 
  • The first priority, indeed the sole priority, is to crush the threat. 
  • Questions about the legality of actions ostensibly undertaken against the guilty parties are brushed aside as trivial annoyances at best, or, worse, castigated as efforts to sympathize with and protect those responsible for the danger. 
  • When a population is subsumed with pulsating fear and rage, there is little patience for seemingly abstract quibbles about legality or ethics. 
  • The craving for punishment, for vengeance, for protection, is visceral and thus easily drowns out cerebral or rational impediments to satiating those primal impulses.
...For many liberals and Democrats in the U.S., 1/6 is the equivalent of 9/11. 
One need not speculate about that. 
Many have said this explicitly. 
Some prominent Democrats in politics and media have even insisted that 1/6 was worse than 9/11.
...Mainstream political and media sectors instantly consecrated the narrative, fully endorsed by the U.S. security state, that the United States was attacked on 1/6 by domestic terrorists bent on insurrection and a coup. 
They also claimed in unison that the ideology driving those right-wing domestic terrorists now poses the single most dangerous threat to the American homeland, a claim which the intelligence community was making even before 1/6 to argue for a new War on Terror 
...With those extremist and alarming premises fully implanted, there has been little tolerance for questions about whether proposed responses for dealing with the 1/6 “domestic terrorists" and their incomparably dangerous ideology are excessive, illegal, unethical, or unconstitutional. 
...Even without enactment of a new law, there is no doubt that a second War on Terror, this one domestic, has begun and is growing, all in the name of the 1/6 "Insurrection" and with little dissent or even public debate...Read all!!

We’re over half of a decade into the FBI actively intervening in favor of the Democrat party to snuff out dissent and opposition, and what is the name of a single heir to Efrem Zimbalist, Jr.’s sturdy Inspector Erskine who has stood up and pulled the pin on his, her, or (increasingly) xir, career because the FBI’s shenanigans are a gross violation of their principles.

Lazy crane operators making $250,000 a year exacerbating port crisis, truckers say | Washington Examiner

Lazy crane operators making $250,000 a year exacerbating port crisis, truckers say | Washington Examiner

LONG BEACH, California — Crane operators who belong to a powerful union and earn up to $250,000 a year transferring containers from ships to trucks are worsening the supply chain crisis that threatens Christmas by goofing off on the job, frustrated truckers told the Washington Examiner.

The finger-pointing at the busy Los Angeles County ports comes as scores of container ships are anchored off the California coast, waiting in some cases for weeks to unload their freight. The Biden administration has scrambled to get shipping executives, port officials, and labor to tackle the problem. While the reasons for the burgeoning backlog are complex, truck drivers say not everyone seems to be working together.

Must-see TV: Devastating video of shifting narrative on COVID vax

"...Whoever put it together understands the short attention span of many people and the power of rapid cuts from image to image, resulting in a powerful cumulative impression.  It begins with the confident claims of vaccine efficacy from Fauci and others.  With familiar music from Edvard Grieg's Peer Gynt Suite in the background, as the tempo increases, the speed of the images follows, perfectly synchronized with the music, as published claims of vaccine efficacy plunge from 100% and headlines about side-effects and other problems flash by.  Fauci's visage, confidently endorsing the vaccines, reappears, taking on a Big Brotherish aspect, almost comically sticking to his story as reality in the headlines contradicts his propaganda pronouncements.

As Sundance comments:

[T]he effectiveness of this video is enhanced because the producer doesn’t use opinion to drive home the point. The central assertion of vaccines being ineffective is proven in their own words and media statements during the course of only ten months.  A masterful video.

This is well worth your two minutes:

Targeting Trump: Durham Uncovers New Clinton, FBI Connections in Russia Probe | Judicial Watch

The wheels of justice grind slow—much to the exasperation of, well, everybody. In April 2019, Attorney General William Barr appointed federal prosecutor John Durham to get to the bottom of the Russia mess: the sensational allegations, both before and after Donald Trump’s November 2016 presidential election victory, of Trump connections to dirty Russian money, dirty players, and dirty deeds.

Testifying before a Senate subcommittee, Barr said he wanted a review of “both the genesis and the conduct of intelligence activities directed at the Trump campaign during 2016.” Durham’s mandate: investigate the investigators—particularly the FBI. What did the FBI know about Trump’s accusers and when did they know it?

Last month, more than two years after his appointment, Durham delivered.

The way we were-----Mass Rescuer: Chiune Sugihara

"...During WWII, the Nazi regime sought to exterminate millions of people they saw as inferior.
Despite their campaign of horror, those dark days inspired some to act - to risk their lives to save their friends, their neighbors, and even strangers whose lives were at risk through no fault of their own.
One of the men who was willing to risk his life and career to save others came from a surprising place - Japan.
The story of Chiune Sugihara, the vice-consul for the Japanese Empire in Lithuania, and how his efforts saved innocent lives, is history that deserves to be remembered."
