- But if higher education wasn’t an adjunct of the Democratic Party, surely the left would be charging the industry with consumer fraud and price gouging...

About That Claim That July 3-4 Were the 'Hottest Days on Record'...
About That Claim That July 3-4 Were the 'Hottest Days on Record'... - BY RICK MORAN
- The headlines were stark and specific. Reuters claimed, “World registers hottest day ever recorded on July 3.”
- Well, “ever recorded” is misleading since the records have only been “recorded” since 1979. But what kind of a headline would that have been?
- At least the BBC was honest about their scare headline: “World’s hottest day since records began.”...
...supposedly the hottest in 125,000 years. The claimed temperature was derived from the University of Maine’s Climate Reanalyzer, which relies on a mix of satellite temperature data and computer-model guesstimation to calculate estimates of temperature.
One obvious problem with the updated narrative is that there are no satellite data from 125,000 years ago. Calculated estimates of current temperatures can’t be fairly compared with guesses of global temperature from thousands of years ago...
A more likely alternative to the 62.6-degree estimate is something around 57.5 degrees. The latter is an average of actual surface temperature measurements taken around the world and processed on a minute-by-minute basis by a website called temperature.global. The numbers have been steady this year, with no spike in July.
Moreover, the notion of “average global temperature” is meaningless. Average global temperature is a concept invented by and for the global-warming hypothesis. It is more a political concept than a scientific one. The Earth and its atmosphere is large and diverse, and no place is meaningfully average...

Becerra’s Blunder: Did the Administration Allow Fauci and Other Officials to Operate Illegally? - Jonathan Turley
"...However, the most serious question now may be whether Fauci was who he said he was in those hearings: the then-director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID).
On Friday, the House Committee on Energy and Commerce issued a letter to Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Xavier Becerra that raises the disturbing question of whether Fauci and 13 other National Institutes of Health (NIH) institute and center directors were unlawfully holding their offices for some period.

- Not only did these directors make sweeping policy changes for the nation but, in 2022 alone, they awarded more than $25 billion in federal biomedical grants.
It turns out she might have been more accurate than she thought -- because Fauci legally may have been just a "regular guy" giving out billions without authority...
No, books are NOT being banned!-----From Bad to Verse - Taki's Magazine
From Bad to Verse - Taki's Magazine - Steven Tucker"Are all modern-day popular poems really secretly written by Oprah Winfrey?
It may well be so.
Amanda Gorman, the unbearable young black American “poet” catapulted to undeserved stardom after she performed her shitty little ditty of leftist doggerel “The Hill We Climb” at the inauguration of President Joe Biden in January 2021, last month gave her first interview reacting to the terrible recent news that her poem has allegedly been banned (sadly it hasn’t) by a single Florida school.
Amanda Gorman, the unbearable young black American “poet” catapulted to undeserved stardom after she performed her shitty little ditty of leftist doggerel “The Hill We Climb” at the inauguration of President Joe Biden in January 2021, last month gave her first interview reacting to the terrible recent news that her poem has allegedly been banned (sadly it hasn’t) by a single Florida school.
- Speaking to CBS News in June, Gorman complained how “All it takes is one person, one quickly written complaint, to render that book inaccessible for everyone in the community,” a reaction that rather suggests that left-wingers don’t like it when their own cancel-culture tactics are turned around and used against them by persons on the conservative right.
- “Gorman ended up gracing the cover of Time magazine, performing at the Super Bowl, and signing a modeling deal with top firm IMG Models, just like Dame Edith Sitwell.”..
