Sen. Ted Cruz introduces bill to prevent the Fed from establishing a central bank digital currency - TheBlaze: 

The study indicated that a CBDC will make the process by which governments freeze someone's financial resources — as Canadian banks did in concert with the Trudeau government in its crackdown efforts on peaceful protesters in 2022 — easier and faster, having established "a direct line between citizens and the government itself."

Policymakers would also be able to set negative interest rates, thereby forcing spending by causing people to lose money.

In addition to a loss of transparency and the ability to force spending, the government would also be put in a position where it could prohibit people from buying certain goods (e.g., alcohol).

The Crusade Against 'Malinformation' Explicitly Targets Inconvenient Truths

The Crusade Against 'Malinformation' Explicitly Targets Inconvenient Truths - JACOB SULLUM

• The legal challenge to censorship by proxy highlights covert government manipulation of online speech.

"Last month, I noted that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention had repeatedly exaggerated the scientific evidence supporting face mask mandates during the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Facebook attached a warning to that column, which it said was "missing context" and "could mislead people."
According to an alliance of social media platforms, government-funded organizations, and federal officials that journalist Michael Shellenberger calls the "censorship-industrial complex," I had committed the offense of "malinformation." 

• Unlike "disinformation," which is intentionally misleading, or "misinformation," which is erroneous, "malinformation" is true but inconvenient...

With Moron-Harris waiting in the wing. The world is screwed!-----White House Scrambles to Fix Biden Gaffe as He Goes Incoherent, Sniffs Baby

White House Scrambles to Fix Biden Gaffe as He Goes Incoherent, Sniffs Baby - By Nick Arama
"Joe Biden has been getting worse. 

...When he had the Women’s History event on Wednesday, he made some bizarre comments about his wife Jill and LGBTQ people...

Then he also made a weird remark when he was trying to pander to the groups in the room, but then oddly talked about the “LGBTQ survivors.”
But he also had another big gaffe that the White House is scrambling to fix, when he vowed to disarm “domestic political advisers.”

...But what he was supposed to say was “convicted domestic abusers.” 

How do you read that off the teleprompter and come out with “domestic political advisers”?
They had to change the official transcript of the event...

Michigan university to host 5 separate graduation 'celebrations' based on race, sexual orientation - TheBlaze: 

A university in Michigan has decided to host five separate, identity-based graduation "celebrations" in addition to its regular commencement ceremonies to celebrate the school's supposed "diverse identities and cultures."

Lock Your Car Doors When Getting Gas In Michigan: Avoid 'Sliders'

"One of the latest plots involves 'sliders'. 

• Sliders usually work in teams of three or more. The first, and usually only one their you'll meet, is when you are at the gas pump. They will more than likely be on the opposite side of the pump you're using and will engage you in conversation or point out a 'dropped wallet' or other item and ask if it is yours.
• If you become distracted enough, the slider will pullup in another car on the passenger side of your vehicle, get out of their car, open the door you have your back to, slide in to take your valuables, hop back into the getaway car, and you are none the wiser...

Wow! Much here!-----New Evidence: Fauci Imposed a Vaccine Delay that Cost Trump the Election

New Evidence: Fauci Imposed a Vaccine Delay that Cost Trump the Election - BY TOBY ROGERS 

"Think back to July 2020. 

Trump and Fauci were at war with each other.

Key leaders within the Trump administration, including Peter Navarro, wanted to fire Fauci. 

There were protests and sometimes riots in the streets over the murder of George Floyd. 

And new evidence shows that behind the scenes, Fauci was working to torpedo Trump’s chances for re-election.

• We already knew that Fauci, the FDA, CDC, and the pharmaceutical industry went to great lengths to block treatments based on repurposed pharmaceuticals, including hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin, 
• while putting all hope and money into Covid-19 vaccines. 
• But a new book reveals that Fauci also forced Moderna to delay their clinical trial by three weeks — which pushed the release of their preliminary results until after the presidential election...

For Five Years, The Pulitzer Prizes Have Rewarded Misinformation

For Five Years, The Pulitzer Prizes Have Rewarded Misinformation - BY: MARK HEMINGWAY

• This many high-profile failures in such a short time makes winning a Pulitzer look definitively like a mark of ignominy.

The way the Pulitzer Prizes work seems simple enough – an Ivy league university hands out annual awards that ostensibly recognize important journalism. 

In practice, however, my former colleague Phil Terzian, a Pulitzer finalist who has served on the nominating committee, described the inner workings of the Pulitzers this way:

The Pulitzer Prizes are a singularly corrupt institution, administered by Columbia University and the management of the New York Times largely for the benefit of the New York Times and a limited number of favored publications and personalities. 

Any citizen who thinks that the annual distribution of awards has something to do with quality probably believes that the Oscar for Best Picture goes to the most distinguished film of the year...
