NYC to grant 800K noncitizens right to vote; state GOP blasts bill as 'worst idea out of New York City Democrats ever' - TheBlaze:
Under the legislation, noncitizens will not be able to vote in federal elections that determine the president or members of Congress or state elections that determine the governor or state lawmakers.
At present, the legislation would affect more than 800,000 residents of the city who, though they are not citizens, are legal green card holders or have the right to work in the United States.
Why aren't we hearing about the hero SRO who stopped this mass murder???-----Oxford High School shooting
Oxford High School shooting - Wikipedia:
"...Crumbley was arrested unharmed by a deputy assigned as a school resource officer (SRO) and a second deputy who had responded to the scene.[15][19][20]
He allegedly still had seven rounds of ammunition loaded into his gun and two 15-round magazines when he was stopped by the deputies..."

Hate Crime Hoaxes Are More Common Than You Think - WSJ
- A political scientist found that fewer than 1 in 3 of 346 such allegations was genuine.
- In 2012 a popular gay bar in suburban Chicago was destroyed by fire, and the owner cited homophobia as the reason.
- The same year, black students at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside reported death threats from hate groups and found a noose hanging from a dorm room door.
Ultimately, the owner of the bar pleaded guilty to arson and insurance fraud.
And a black student at the university fessed up to sending racist threats and planting a noose.
More incidents followed, and Mr. Reilly’s skepticism grew.
...Mr. Reilly eventually compiled a database of 346 hate-crime allegations and determined that less than a third were genuine...Read all!

"Dwight sent over this New York Post piece on how a dozen blue-led cities have already set all-time murder records.
At least 12 major US cities have already set historical murder records in 2021, even as three weeks remain in the year.
Philadelphia, the nation’s sixth largest city, recorded 523 murders as of Dec. 7, surpassing its formal grim milestone of 500 murders, which was set in 1990, police data showed...
I covered Austin’s record murder rate here.
Five of those cities topped notorious benchmarks that were set in 2020, the article said. All of them were led by Democratic mayors, as are the vast majority of US cities.
...Rick goes on to explain that Krasner is engaging in some political sleight of hand here. Krasner is able to say that crime isn’t spiking because he simply isn’t prosecuting criminals who would have been prosecuted in the past. Progressive DAs are almost always pro-criminal.
Oh, wait…Philly is also in the midst of a frightening increase in homicides. The city has suffered its highest body count since 1960.
So, there is no real problem as long as you ignore the dead guy on your lawn...Read all.

'Cabal' that bragged of foisting Joe Biden on us must answer for his presidency
'Cabal' that bragged of foisting Joe Biden on us must answer for his presidency"It’s time to admit it.
Less than a year in, Joe Biden’s is a failed presidency.
Biden knows it, the press knows it, and voters know it.
And our foreign adversaries like China and Russia know it.
It’s also time to look at the “cabal” of business, labor and political leaders who foisted the Biden administration on us.

That won’t be hard, as they were openly bragging about their efforts less than a year ago.Gas prices hit an all-time high in California last month, with the highest prices in the country.
...Normally when you get a bad president, voters are to blame.

They decided what they wanted and, in H.L. Mencken’s famous phrase, deserve to get it good and hard. But in saddling America with the Biden administration, the voters got more than a nudge.

Still Crazy After All The Data - by Mark Wauck
- Alex Berenson draws attention to the insanity that’s continuing at US colleges, and he states the telltale disconnect with reality in simple and succinct terms:
Meanwhile, colleges and universities are now requiring Covid vaccine boosters
The insanity in higher education continues.
Bowdoin College and Syracuse University are just two of the institutions of higher education now telling students to get boosted or get lost. Here’s Bowdoin’s email from yesterday [all-caps in original]: “effective January 21, 2022, Bowdoin is requiring all students, faculty, and staff to receive a COVID-19 booster shot within thirty (30) days of becoming eligible.”
Keep in mind:
1: The risk of severe disease or death from Covid [the disease] to healthy college-age adults is too low to measure accurately. The data from Europe suggests that a healthy 18 year-old has a risk of death lower than 1 in 1 million.
2: The risk of dangerous heart inflammation [from the injection] is NOT too low to measure. A new study from Hong Kong found that for 1 out of 2,300 12-17 year-old boys who received both Pfizer doses suffered acute myocarditis or pericarditis.
Most of the risk came after the second dose. The risk is very similar in college-age men...Read all!

As I reported yesterday:
...So I’d like to catch the omicron variant, and I’d like to catch it as soon as possible — just to get the brief flu-like misery over before Christmas, New Year’s, and my older son’s birthday.“Mild” is the same word used by Angelique Coetzee, the South African doctor who was one of the first to identify the [omicron] variant. People she treated with omicron had symptoms “so different and so mild from those I had treated before,” she said.
Virtually all of Netcare’s patients “presented with mild to moderate flu-like symptoms, including a blocked or runny nose, headache and a scratchy or sore throat.”
“Take a NyQuil and don’t bother calling me in the morning,” is pretty much what my doctor would tell me to do with those symptoms, provided they didn’t get any worse.

Net-Zero Gambit Depends on Green Subsidy Gusher
Net-Zero Gambit Depends on Green Subsidy Gusher
"A group of 450 financial firms attending the U.N.’s COP-26 climate conference in Glasgow have generously pledged $130 trillion in capital to finance a global transition to obtain net-zero carbon emissions. That’s more than 135 percent of the world’s gross domestic product in 2021.
They’ve made this commitment in the expectation that government mandates, handouts, and incentives will force fossil fuel and nuclear energy industries out of business, to be replaced by politically favored wind and solar, and artificial demand created for electric vehicles, which currently constitute only 3 percent of automotive sales.
