School Boards and Idiots - American Thinker

School Boards and Idiots - American Thinker

"Mark Twain famously said, “In the first place, God made idiots. That was for practice. Then he made school boards.” 

If you ever doubted the wisdom of this observation, the conduct of the Loudoun County School Board, the National School Boards Association, and Attorney General Merrick Garland should put paid to your skepticism. 

A more patent a collection of idiots it would be hard to find.

The heroes in this story are Scott Smith, father of a young girl who had been sexually assaulted in a Loudoun County school bathroom by a “gender fluid” boy wearing a skirt, with an assist from the America First Legal Foundation (AFL), and the thousands of concerned parents of public school children around the country.

  • Attorney General Garland Sics the FBI on Parents

We were puzzled by Garland’s preposterous memorandum ordering the FBI to investigate angry parents showing up at school board meetings as “domestic terrorists,” but AFL, in a letter to Inspector General Michael Horowitz, makes a credible series of factual assertions about the genesis of this outrageous order...Read all!

Michigan SOS must release documents on deal with pro-Whitmer group, court says

Michigan SOS must release documents on deal with pro-Whitmer group, court says: "The court's ruling is a positive step to help tear the curtain back on the secret deal between Benson and Whitmer," said Tori Sachs, the former executive director of Michigan Rising Action. "Michiganders deserve the truth." Among the documents that will have to be produced are communications between the law firm that represented Build a Better Michigan and Secretary of State personnel. The Secretary of State's office had argued that those messages fell within a disclosure exemption that protects "frank communication" between officials within public agencies. The communications don't fit the exemption because they weren't between or within public bodies, Murray wrote.

China... the price of lying flat is too high for young ...

"Lying flat, or tang ping in Chinese describes a phenomenon among young people who, instead of striving for higher pay and social status in life, choose to simply lie down and give the bare minimum. 
They don't buy houses, cars, fall in love, get married, or have children. 
Instead, they work at low-paying jobs or not working at all to maintain a minimum standard of living. 
How did this idea start in China? 
Let's look at the following video"

"Teeing" up BLAME!-----Fauci Says Unvaccinated Americans Could Lead to Dangers of Fifth Covid Wave (VIDEO)

Fauci Says Unvaccinated Americans Could Lead to Dangers of Fifth Covid Wave (VIDEO)"Fauci told "Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace that although Covid cases and hospitalizations are down, the dirty, unvaccinated Americans could lead to the dangers of a fifth Covid wave.
“What is the real possibility that we could have a fifth wave of the virus – especially, especially if there’s not a spike in vaccinations?” Chris Wallace asked, teeing up Fauci.
Fauci said...“The problem is as we all know, we still have approximately 66 million people who are eligible to get vaccinated who are not vaccinated.”
...The “extraordinary effectiveness” of the COVID vaccines caught on video...MUST SEE the lies!

New Capitol Video Contradicts Justice Department, Media Narrative on January 6--By Julie Kelly
"Over the objection of Joe Biden’s Justice Department, a lengthy video clip showing U.S. Capitol Police allowing hundreds of people into the building on the afternoon of January 6 has been released to the public.
...A group called the Press Coalition, representing news organizations including CNN, the New York Times, and the three major broadcast news networks, filed a motion in September to intervene in Nordean’s case and make the video footage public.
The full recording was posted on Twitter by BuzzFeed reporter Zoe Tillman this morning.
  • ...At the start of the video, one officer held open the interior door that accesses the Capitol Rotunda, a space between the House and Senate wings. 
  • Five or six unidentified men exited the door and spoke to the officer before leaving. Those men held open the exterior double-doors, where protesters began filing into the building. Nordean’s lawyer said his client is recorded entering the building, with the consent of police, between 2:37 p.m. and 2:38 p.m..
  • Capitol Police officers stood in the small hallway between the exterior and interior doors for the next few minutes; dozens of people entered as police did not attempt to stop them...Read all.

What Americans Need to Know about Swedish Taxation | International Liberty

What Americans Need to Know about Swedish Taxation | International Libert---Dan Mitchell

"Some of my left-leaning friends (as well as some non-friends) think Nordic nations such as Sweden are shining examples of successful socialism.

They’re wrong.

Not only are they wrong, but those nations actually are case studies of how big welfare states cause damage to national prosperity (as well as case studies of how unwinding big government is a way to regain competitiveness)...

If Europe can have universal health care, pre-K, and all the other welfare state goodies, why can’t America? We could if we just taxed the millionaires and billionaires, the argument goes. Speaking as a Swedish citizen, I can tell you it is not quite that simple. Sweden doesn’t really tax the millionaires and billionaires—it taxes the poor. In Sweden, it is possible to avoid virtually all capital gains taxes through an investment savings account, which obviously mostly benefits the rich...Read all!

Here Are All The Green New Deal Handouts Democrats Wedged Into Their $3.5 Trillion Budget | The Daily Caller
  • Democrats have inserted numerous provisions and subsidy programs into their $3.5 trillion budget that would benefit green energy companies and speed the transition to renewables.
  • The budget would include a credit worth as much as $12,500 for consumers who purchase a new electric vehicle, $2,500 for electric motorcycles purchased and even $1,500 for electric bicycles, according to Ebell.
  • A key part of the budget is the $150 billion Clean Electricity Performance Program — the centerpiece of the bill’s climate agenda — which would incentivize energy companies to produce fewer emissions through a series of grants and fees...Read all!

Nor did Milton Friedman have a particularly sympathetic view of the business leaders of late-twentieth-century America.

Instapundit-Nor did Milton Friedman have a particularly sympathetic view of the business leaders of late-twentieth-century America.

"THE VISIBLE HAND: The Distorted Market for Woke Capitalism.

  • The founder of modern economics, Adam Smith, was no fan of the merchants of his time. He regarded them as among the most responsible for how “the mercantile system,” as Smith called it, accorded legal privileges to politically connected producers over the interests of consumers.
  • Nor did Milton Friedman have a particularly sympathetic view of the business leaders of late-twentieth-century America. “The two greatest enemies of free enterprise in the United States,” he wrote, “have been, on the one hand, my fellow intellectuals and, on the other hand, the business corporations of this country.”...

Plus: “At the nexus of all this is a curious combination: a neo-mercantilist approach to realizing profit alongside a conviction that the business of business somehow involves resolving as many of the world’s political, social, and cultural problems as possible. This reflects deep misunderstanding—if not corruption—of the role of business vis-à-vis other groups’ responsibilities in society.”

Fascinating piece, well worth your time.--Posted by Stephen Green"

Washington state trooper fired Jay Inslee vaccine mandate - TheBlaze

A veteran Washington State trooper delivered an emotional final sign-off after being forced out of his job because of the state's vaccine mandate.

Video has gone viral of a Washington state trooper in Yakima County saying his final goodbye to his colleagues.

The Florida governor asserted, "Just think of Biden, he says, 'Don't make the vaccines divisive.' Don't make the vaccines divisive? You are trying to take peoples' jobs away over this issue.
