Baltimore: not one student at these 23 schools can do math at grade level - DAVID STROM
"Public school teachers need a raise.
Sure, why not?
"Public school teachers need a raise.
Sure, why not?
It’s a tough job, and if they can get most of their students to learn the basics it makes sense to pay them well.
But what if, say, not one of their students can perform basic tasks at grade level?
Not even one.

Nada.

Bupkus.
That’s the situation in Baltimore, where the city brags that they have some of the highest teacher salaries in the country...

Biden's DHS removes bulk of 'eyes in the sky' from surveillance tools used along southern border - TheBlaze
Biden's DHS removes bulk of 'eyes in the sky' from surveillance tools used along southern border - TheBlaze:
The Department of Homeland Security is reducing its fleet of surveillance blimps along the overwhelmed southern border from 12 to four, Fox News reported Thursday.
"It's hard to believe how badly Biden has botched the border," Senator Rick Scott (R-Fla.) told EWTN News Nightly on Thursday.
"Now, if he gets rid of these blimps, we're not going to know how many gotaways there are. It's going to make our border way less secure," the Sunshine State lawmaker continued.
International concern, excess deaths
"Recce Rat--Some of us tried so very hard to warn others, but were dismissed.
I'm now watching yet another good friend die from cancer, accelerated like you would not believe with new tumours rapidly spreading.
He's young, with a young daughter and a good man who didn't deserve this!
What others need to understand is it's not about being right or wrong or "I told you so", it was always about stopping people getting hurt or killed!
I have another 5 friends who have heart issues, and 2 more dead from heart attacks!"

Alex Berenson--Dr. Anthony Fauci now admits the mRNA Covid vaccines hardly work and might not be approvable
Dr. Anthony Fauci now admits the mRNA Covid vaccines hardly work and might not be approvable - Alex Berenson
But the same scientists then compared our beloved and groundbreaking Covid vaccines to those pointless flu jabs: As variant SARS-CoV-2 strains have emerged, deficiencies in these [Covid] vaccines reminiscent of influenza vaccines have become apparent.
At its core, the piece raises the question of whether any vaccines can ever work well enough to matter against bugs like common coronaviruses, influenza, and RSV...
- In fact, a bombshell paper he co-authored last month suggests ALL vaccines for common respiratory viruses may face intractable hurdles.
- And that's not even the worst news. I'm not exaggerating.
"Last month, three scientists pointed out flu shots barely work and couldn’t be approved based on the standards used for vaccines like measles:
“After more than 60 years of experience with influenza vaccines, very little improvement in vaccine prevention of infection has been noted… our best approved influenza vaccines would be inadequate for licensure for most other vaccine-preventable diseases.” [emphasis added]
True.

True.

Report: Disinformation Tracking Groups Lead Effort to Blacklist Conservative Media | Newsmax.com:
Ostensibly nonpartisan groups that claim to be fighting the spread of disinformation online are developing covert blacklists and turning them over to advertising agencies, with the goal of shutting down speech they don't agree with, according to emails obtained by the outlet, public memos, and sources familiar with the situation.
Seeking to promote products online, brands are turning to ad agencies, some of which are then contracting disinformation trackers to determine which websites they should allegedly defund.

- China and Russia are both in full-on war mode, mobilizing their economies, their armies and navies for World War III with America.
- "Notice I said “America.”
- Not “NATO.”
"NATO is America and America is NATO along with its vassal states.
NATO has always been built upon American power.
NATO has always been built upon American power.
- The problem is America has lost its power and any that remains is largely about perception, not reality.
Once they see that the Emperor has no clothes, that it’s all smoke and mirrors — and the balloon incident has started to open people’s eyes — they will be shocked at how weak America actually is...
