When Censorship’s the Game, Despotism Is the Goal
- We’re only a few months beyond the turn of the calendar and already I have a candidate for the word of the year: Censorship.
1. Censorship of Created Equal
A popular documentary on the life of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, viewers have been able to watch Created Equal on Amazon since last October, until it was removed by the Big Tech company in February. The director of the documentary, Michael Pack, told The Wall Street Journal that they were never given a reason for the removal. “[M]any people have complained,” he told the Journal, “and they haven’t put it back up.”
2. Censorship of When Harry Became Sally
Released several years ago, Ryan T. Anderson’s book on transgenderism suddenly went missing from Amazon’s virtual shelves the other week...
3. Censorship of Trump’s CPAC Speech...Read all.

Glenn Beck State of the Union - TheBlaze
Glenn Beck State of the Union - TheBlaze:
Glenn brings the ACTUAL state of the union, because what America got last night was the Disney version. Joe Biden played the role of Elsa, hoping all of us would just “let it go” after a full year of probably the worst start to a presidency Glenn has ever seen. And no, your ears weren’t deceiving you, as President Biden had the audacity to finally admit our kids need to be in school. You weren't hallucinating, as he finally mentioned the border.

Biden White House on the Verge of Making Disastrous Move with Kamala Harris
Biden White House on the Verge of Making Disastrous Move with Kamala Harris
"What are they doing?
"What are they doing?
The Biden White House is going to ask Kamala Harris to back into the game again?
Bench this woman, please.
For the sake of our intelligence and human civilization, just put her back into the cardboard box from whence she came.
- She has failed on the border.
- She failed in boosting COVID vaccination rates.
- Harris is a walking failure, who bleeds staff and fosters a toxic work environment.
- She doesn’t do the work and she doesn’t read the briefings her staff prepare for her, so she doesn’t look like an idiot.
- She botched the talking points about the sanctions slapped against Russia in the aftermath of their invasion of Ukraine.
- And now, the White House wants to send her to Poland? Does she even know where that is on the map (via The Hill)...Read all.

Evidence Suggests COVID Vaccines May Not Save More Lives Than They Take | Intellectual Takeout
"Medical journals and textbooks are clear that the only way to accurately determine the life-or-death impacts of medical treatments is by measuring “all-cause mortality” in “randomized controlled trials.”
...Beyond the fact that death is the most severe and clearest health outcome, the reason why this measure is more vital than any other is because RCTs control for every possible confounding factor, including those that are not obvious.
...The results reveal that 70 people died during the Moderna and Pfizer trials, including 37 who received Covid vaccines and 33 who did not.
Combined with the fact that half of the study participants were given vaccinations and the other half were given placebos, these crucial results provide no indication that the vaccines save more lives than they take...Read all.

What If Russia Loses? - Noah Rothman, Commentary Magazine
"...How does Putin deescalate the crisis he inaugurated?
Such an outcome is hard to envision now...
- Vladimir Putin’s decision to announce the activation of Russia’s strategic nuclear arsenal is a clear signal to the West that it must pare back its support for Ukraine.
- It’s quite possible that Moscow could label Western nations providing material support to Kyiv co-belligerents in an active war against Russia.
- It could violently interdict weapons shipments into Ukraine, or conduct cyberattacks on vital elements of Western civilian infrastructure...
- Whether by accident or as a shot across NATO’s bow, it’s not hard to imagine a Russian strike on a Western asset that cannot be ignored.
At the moment, there is precisely no appetite in the West for allowing Russia a face-saving way out of this crisis.
- Moscow misjudged its adversaries.
- The West misjudged Russia.
- And Ukraine couldn’t possibly have imagined the outpouring of support for its efforts to sustain the fight. Everyone’s assumptions about how this conflict would play out proved inaccurate.
Those assumptions will need to be replaced with new assumptions...Read all!
