USPS seeks temporary relief from the Biden admin's vaccine or test mandate, warning of 'potentially catastrophic impact' to service - TheBlaze:
The United States Postal Service is seeking a temporary waiver from the Biden administration's mandate that will require large employers to ensure that workers are either vaccinated against COVID-19 or that they test negative weekly.
Deputy Postmaster General Douglas Tulino noted in a letter to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration that USPS could lose employees at a critical time as a consequence of the mandate.

"The one-year anniversary of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot arrives this week with Americans still sharply divided over the afternoon-long episode’s significance and severity as Democrats, hemorrhaging support and facing the loss of Congress in this year's midterms, sternly present a media spectacle of public events to emphasize what they see as the threat posed to democracy by Donald Trump and his party, as represented by that day.
There is no comparable scrutiny of the nationwide summer 2020 riots over George Floyd’s murder, protests endorsed by many on the left amid a virulent pandemic -- although polling has shown that a large majority of Americans support examining the circumstances of both events.
RealClearInvestigations has developed the comparison database below allowing readers to draw their own conclusions -- including the all-but-forgotten riot in Washington on Inauguration Day 2017, as protesters challenged Trump’s election and legitimacy.
Authorities have pursued the largely Trump-supporting Capitol rioters with substantially more vigor than suspected wrongdoers in the earlier two cases, and prosecutors and judges alike have weighed Capitol riot defendants’ political views in adjudicating their cases.
Dozens of accused Capitol rioters have been held in pretrial detention for months, where they have allegedly been mistreated.
In the summer 2020 riots, the vast majority of charges were dismissed, as they were in the Inauguration 2017 unrest. Prosecutors have dropped a single Capitol riot case...Read all, much info here!

Falling IQ Scores Suggest We’re Getting Dumber. Can We Reverse Course?
- Are we getting dumber?
- Apparently so.
The results suggest a reversal in the Flynn effect, an observed increase in IQ scores throughout the 20th century in developed countries.
...Boys born in the first observation period, 1962 to 1975, gained almost 0.3 IQ points per year, but those in the cohort born after 1975 saw a steady decline in scores.”

Author Claims Kyle Rittenhouse Killed Two 'Black Men' - Louder With Crowder
Author Claims Kyle Rittenhouse Killed Two 'Black Men' - Louder With Crowder:
The media lied a LOT about Kyle Rittenhouse. Like, A LOT a lot. If you aren't familiar with how terrible corporate media is, you would be led to believe the worst about Kyle. Our own Dave Landau will attest to that. The biggest lie is that the two people Kyle acted in self-defense against were black. It might have to do with the lie that Kyle was a white supremacist. It's remarkable how many low-information liberals actually think this. So many, that the lie got published in a book.

GM is a crappy company in every way!-----For the First Time Ever, the Best-Selling Carmaker in America Isn't an American Carmaker
For the First Time Ever, the Best-Selling Carmaker in America Isn't an American Carmaker
...This followed the Obama administration’s takeover of GM in 2009, under the guise of rescuing it from bankruptcy and saving American jobs, earning the carmaker the derisive nickname “Government Motors.”
"...Japanese automaker Toyota sold more cars in the United States than any other manufacturer, edging historical bestseller General Motors out of the top spot. This marks the first time since 1931 that GM isn’t the top-selling automaker in the states.
...Toyota’s victory over GM caps a year when the American carmaker’s sales shrank 12.9% as it sold 2.2 million vehicles in the United States. By contrast, Toyota’s sales increased 10.4% in 2021 compared to 2020, as it sold 2.3 million cars to Americans.
...Gearhead site The Truth About Cars says that GM “claimed its numbers were down due to the global semiconductor shortage that continues to disproportionally impact American automakers. While there are a few sound logistical reasons for that, the chip deficit also becomes a convenient excuse for brands that cannot seem to get their general supply chains under control. No matter how you slice it, GM looks to have screwed up managing inventory and Toyota is picking up the slack.”...Read all!!
NASCAR Rejects Let's Go Brandon sponsorship. - Louder With Crowder
NASCAR Rejects Let's Go Brandon sponsorship. - Louder With Crowder:
I guess we shouldn't be surprised. While NASCAR is popular in most of America, the NYC/LA-based NASCAR corporate HQ has liberal elitists and the media to pander to. Therefore, even though they originally approved it, the organization has rejected the "Let's Go, Brandon" inspired LGBcoin as a sponsor for NASCAR driver Brandon Brown, all but guaranteeing louder and more vibrant "Let's Go, Brandon" chants at races, from Americans who actually support NASCAR. That's if they don't go with the less family-friendly "F*ck Joe Biden."
