After George Floyd’s drug overdose death, military leaders declared an emergency.
From former Secretary of Defense Esper’s false claim that, “racism is real in America, and we must all do our very best to recognize it, to confront it, and to eradicate it” last summer to Secretary of Defense Austin’s fight against “racial disparities”, the focus has been on the supposed oppressed status of black people in the military...
The Democrats aren’t tough on crime; they create it. It’s part of the plan.
"Just before the “pandemic,” leading apparatchiks like former New York Gov. Andrew “Handsy” Cuomo decided prisons and bail laws were somehow “racist.”He began letting convicts out early and scrapping the bail laws, keeping them out of jail and back on the streets, committing more crimes. Once COVID-19 hit, New York State used it as an excuse to ramp up its early release plans, even though being incarcerated sounds like a wonderful example of social distancing. Other Democrat leaders followed Cuomo’s lead and began letting thugs out of jail...
FACT-O-RAMA! In May 2020, Cuomo knew that inmates made up less than 1% of COVID patients but continued letting them out anyway...
Border Patrol chief Raul Ortiz admitted under oath last month that migrants face "no consequences" for entering the United States illegally under President Joe Biden.

We’ve learned a lot of uncanny principles about human rights over the past few years. We’ve learned that any private institution, including those involved in health care delivery, can force you to take action against your own body and breathing holes in order to obtain medical care. We’ve learned that the Americans with Disabilities Act doesn’t matter when denying rape victims the right to enter a doctor’s office without a mask. We’ve learned that one could deny employment, public accommodation, and even lifesaving care to anyone who doesn’t opt for Pfizer’s magic juice. Human rights all but disappeared. Now the courts have suddenly rediscovered them when it comes to those who desire “medical care” for gender dysphoria, aka castration.

This post starts by mapping Covid around the world.
First, in a “naive” way, taking official data — and then in a smarter way, using “excess mortality”, which also allows us to estimate a “fudge factor” for every country’s Covid data.
Then I draw lessons from the maps — what they say about vaccines, travel bans, lockdowns, and future pandemic responses...
In response to a tweet echoing the president's comment about women being "awakened" by "MAGA Republicans," some on social media dragged the president by pointing out that leftists have trouble providing a definition for the word "woman."
