Instapundit - Washington Post’s Cleve Wootson asked if the government has a “role” in tackling “misinformation”

The New Hotness? Why did a Washington Post reporter urge the White House to censor Trump?
The New Hotness? Why did a Washington Post reporter urge the White House to censor Trump?
...Earlier this week, a Washington Post reporter took it to the next level by openly suggesting the government get in on the game.
During a White House press briefing, the Washington Post’s Cleve Wootson asked if the government has a “role” in tackling “misinformation” and if President Joe Biden planned to “intervene” in Trump’s X Space.
“I think that misinformation on Twitter is not just a campaign issue.
It’s a — you know, it’s an America issue. What role does the White House or the president have any sort of stopping that or stopping the spread of that or sort of inter — intervening in that. Some of that was about campaign misinformation, but you know it’s a wider thing, right?” Wootson asked....
Ukraine Will Spend $20 Billion in US Aid to Build Green Energy David Strom
This is, of course, totally insane. Imagine how easy it would be to destroy an entire field of solar panels with a few artillery shells, not to mention the problem of having to build backup power plants to run when the wind doesn't blow, and the sun doesn't shine.
- I, for one, am excited that in the midst of a U.S.-funded war with Russia, Ukraine has committed to spend $20 billion it doesn't have to green up its energy sector.
- Will all that diesel fuel being expended to run tanks and transport trucks, the country really has to offset its carbon emissions.
- What I don't yet know is whether Ukraine will close down farms, transition to insect protein, and build 15-minute cities to save planet Earth as Ukrainians get slaughtered on the battlefield.
- Perhaps announcements regarding these other Gaia-friendly measures will come soon. Or, perhaps they can go all Soylent Green on us using battlefield casualties...
Kamala Harris Copies One of Trump's Signature Campaign Promises, But Her Past Betrays Her
Kamala Harris Copies One of Trump's Signature Campaign Promises, But Her Past Betrays Her:
Vice President Kamala Harris has an authenticity problem that would disqualify her from high office anywhere outside the Democratic Party.
For instance, according to The Washington Post, the 2024 Democratic presidential nominee held a campaign rally Saturday in Las Vegas, Nevada, where she copied one of former President Donald Trump’s more recent ideas by pledging to “eliminate taxes on tips for service and hospitality workers.”
On the social media platform Truth Social, Trump responded by reminding Harris of an inconvenient truth.
Biden – Harris plan to expedite removal of illegal migrant families was a colossal failure - Kevin Haggerty
Drawing another curtain back on the Biden-Harris administration’s border crisis, a new report revealed how dramatically bragged-about enforcement had failed.
- In the waning days of Title 42, the Trump administration policy that used COVID as cause to expedite the removal of foreign nationals who’d illegally entered the country,
- President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security assured the border wasn’t open and eligible illegals would continue to be ejected “in a matter of days.”
- Now, according to a report from the New York Post, of the roughly 24,000 aliens that had been placed into the Family Expedited Removal Program since May 2023, a vast majority of the over 22,000 had been permitted to remain in the United States...

Biden-Harris reckless spending added TRILLIONS to national debt * WorldNetDaily * by Andrew Powell:
According to commentary from the Heritage Foundation, the Biden-Harris team has increased the federal debt by $7.4 trillion, and spent another $1 trillion from the treasury.
EJ Antoni, research fellow at the Grover M. Hermann Center located at the Heritage Foundation, stated those who cannot pay their bills only have to look to the Biden administration for someone to blame.

- It’s no coincidence that 2020 was the height of these psyops.
- The fake news had a captive audience, herded at home with fake fear.
- It was the most powerful they would ever have.
- Just 3 years later the media would sell $1 for 6 months subscriptions.
The Rabbit Hole @TheRabbitHole84 - The legacy media doesn’t have time to report meaningfully because they are busy generating fake oppression narratives.

The modern pentathlon is getting too soft - that's why people aren't watching it.
Michael Smith - It took me a minute because I had not seen the modern pentathlon in a couple of Olympic cycles.Boy, they have really soy-boyed it.
The pentathlon was launched in 1912 with skills important to soldiering. It was designed to simulate the experience of a 19th-century cavalry soldier behind enemy lines: he must ride an unfamiliar horse, fight enemies...they condensed it from five days to one, and includes these skills:
- Swimming: This is a single 200 meter freestyle swim
- Laser-run: ...Athletes run 3000 meters, stopping four times to shoot at targets with a laser pistol...
- Swordsmanship: A fight to first blood draw with cavalry sabers. Contestants to be ranked by severity of injury or death...
- Riding: Athletes must enter a paddock with wild horses, lasso one, saddle break it and ride it one hundred meters across a finish line...
- Shooting: Each athlete is issued a flintlock pistol, lead shot and a horn of black powder. They each contestant must run a one hundred meter fenced in lane from the start to the shooting station. Three seconds after the starting gun is fired, an angry Grizzly bear with a taste for humans is released from a cage at the starting line...
- EOD Challenge: the athlete is faced with an improvised explosive device with three minutes on the timer and must disarm it. No need for ranking here, the winner will be obvious.
I think my version is more watchable.

Trump-Musk Interview Shatters Viewership Milestones with Numbers the Mainstream Media Could Only Dream Of
Trump-Musk Interview Shatters Viewership Milestones with Numbers the Mainstream Media Could Only Dream Of:
All things considered, the Trump-Musk conversation, which lasted for more than two hours, represented one of the greatest victories for freedom and the will of the people over hyper-authoritarian elitism in recent memory.
Earlier in the day, tyrannical European Union bureaucrat Thierry Breton sent Musk a letter that one must read to believe. In sum, Breton warned Musk to take “all proportionate and effective mitigation measures” against “the amplification of harmful content.”

Police saw Crooks run across roof 3 minutes before he shot former President Trump | Blaze Media:
Disclosures found on hours of police bodycam footage are raising new questions on why Crooks was not deemed a threat earlier and Trump taken off the stage before the 20-year-old gunman could open fire, wounding Trump, killing a retired fire chief, and seriously injuring two bystanders.
The bodycam also makes clear that the lack of Secret Service or police presence on the entire AGR complex roof enabled Crooks to pull off his deadly attack and calls into question the decision to not include the AGR grounds inside the security zone for the event.
