Early Jobs Report Data Previews the Coming Bloodbath "...As RedState reported on Monday, Jen Psaki gave an incredibly odd and nonsensical commentary during her briefing.
In it, she claimed that the jobs numbers were going to be skewed by people calling out sick due to Omicron. Of course, people taking sick leave from work are not counted as job losses, and the entire thing came across as gaslighting meant to preempt a really terrible report. At the time, I speculated that we’d actually see negative jobs growth. ...That will follow on the heels of a flatlining December report in which the numbers missed by over 50% in a month where seasonal hires should have caused a sharp uptick in employment. ...the jobs numbers missed by 500,000, swinging from an expected gain of 200,000 jobs to 300,000 jobs being lost...Read all.
Leaked notes from a meeting held by senior Biden administration officials in the White House Situation Room the day before Kabul fell last August — in fact, as Kabul was falling— reveal the level of inadequate preparation for such an event by President Joe Biden.
The notes were first reported by Axios, which characterized them as revealing Biden's "failures" on Afghanistan.

Black Lives Matter Suspends Online Fundraising after State AGs Threaten Legal Action | National Review
"Black Lives Matter suspended online fundraising on Wednesday after attorneys general in California and Washington state asked the group to submit delinquent financial disclosures for 2020, according to a report.
...The group said at the close of 2020 that after raising $90 million, spending $8.4 million in operating expenses and distributing $21.7 million in grants to 33 other organizations, it closed the year with $60 million.
...Meanwhile, Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita has sounded alarms over BLM’s refusal to answer basic questions about its finances and operations. “It appears that the house of cards may be falling, and this happens eventually with nearly every scam, scheme, or illegal enterprise,” the Republican attorney general told the Washington Examiner. “I see patterns that scams kind of universally take: failure to provide board members, failure to provide even executive directors, failure to make your filings available. It all leads to suspicion.”
The so-called fact-checkers are out again trying to insist one side of a scientific debate is wrong and another is right because they happen to agree with one side.
That’s advocacy, not science.
Here are some facts (check the links provided for additional references):
Scientists in Arctic nations in the late 1960s were worried about the survival of polar bears because numbers worldwide had declined due to overhunting. They were worried enough to put together an International Treaty to protect them in 1973 (Crockford 2019).
In my book (Crockford 2019: 101-106), I cited a number of polar bear specialist who had made estimates of polar bear numbers in the 1960s, that included: Harington (1965, Canada), Larsen (1972, Norway), Lentfer (1965, USA), Jonkel (1969, Canada), Brooks (1965, USA), Lønø (1970, Norway), Scott (1959, USA) and Uspenski (1961, Russia). I stated my professional opinion was that a plausible global population size in the 1960s was about 10,000 (range 5,000-15,000), based on the reports and papers these eight men wrote about how they had come to their decisions, which indicated they had used the best information available at the time. Polar bear specialist Markus Dyck, who died doing polar bear research earlier this year, also used this figure of 10,000 as a reasonable estimate for the 1960s.
In other words, this statement by fact-checkersis a lie: “the book defends Uspenski’s 5,000 estimate, arguing that it was based on the best methods available at the time.”...Read all.
Graham Ledger fired back in response to Biden's comments, tweeting, "Well Joe, I guess your marriage contract is always evolving, correct? If the constitution is always evolving, then your home mortgage is evolving, right? The constitution is a contract between we the people & our government & it does not change unless WE change it. Marxist!"
And that makes it one of the most revealing statements any Leftist has made in decades. ...At some level, she 'knows' that the Holocaust was the bigotry of non-Jewish Germans against Jews (and also numerous other groups, such as Gypsies, homosexuals, priests and nuns, and political opponents… but especially Jews), but that knowledge is suppressed because it interferes with her worldview. The revealing issue here is that Whoopi Goldberg (who consciously adopted a Jewish surname as her stage name, which entitles her audience to expect a bit more awareness from her, at least) does not acknowledge that this particular bigotry - antisemitism - is a type of racism.
And she doesn’t acknowledge it for a reason.
This is a conscious choice, if not by her personally, then by her movement, the modern Left.
...The modern Left is completely dependent upon the idea that the whole world is out to get American blacks.
That’s the only racism that matters, the only racism that’s “real” in the eyes of today’s intersectional left...Read all.
In promoting the alleged accomplishment, the Biden administration obscured the fact that most of those jobs were not new — but instead were Americans returning to the workforce after the COVID lockdowns ended. Now, however, the White House wants to absolve itself from dismal jobs numbers by blaming the pandemic.
The good outcomes are attributed to Biden, while the bad ones are blamed on the pandemic.
Biden and his pro-criminal Democrats - Washington Times "...But that anti-policing frame of reference is not quite right.
Most of those engaged on these issues from the left are not primarily anti-police. They are pro-criminal. “Prosecutors” who are the tip of the spear of this pro-criminal movement include district attorneys in San Francisco (Chesa Boudin, the son of not one but two cop killers), New York, Los Angeles, Philadelphia and Boston.
They have different names and backgrounds, but their pro-criminal approach is uniformly the same.
They stopped asking for cash bail or, in some cases, any bail at all.
Pre-trial detention is out entirely.
Felonies are treated as misdemeanors, and many are not prosecuted at all.
Prosecutors — who have pledged to uphold all of the laws – have specifically listed the laws they won’t enforce...Read all!!!
Formerly rare high temperatures now covering half of seas and devastating wildlife, study shows
"Extreme heat in the world’s oceans passed the “point of no return” in 2014 and has become the new normal, according to research. Scientists analysed sea surface temperatures over the last 150 years, which have risen because of global heating.
They found that extreme temperatures occurring just 2% of the time a century ago have occurred at least 50% of the time across the global ocean since 2014...Read all.
