Peeling the onion!-----New investigation reveals CDC inflated Covid threat level in kids as resignations rock the agency

After withholding key safety data on RSV antibodies, the nation’s top health agency is once again under fire — this time for presenting Covid data in ways that inflate the risk for children. - Maryanne Demasi, PhD

The CDC has been thrown into turmoil after Director Susan Monarez was ousted and several senior officials resigned in quick succession...
ACIP member Dr Robert Malone broke ranks, warning that advisers had been given too little time to interrogate the evidence and had simply trusted the CDC’s word.

• “That trust in the data presented now appears to have been ill-advised,” Malone stated. “Going forward … I will no longer be able to trust that what is presented in CDC summaries to the ACIP is transparent, accurate, and unbiased.”

That was the first crack in the façade...

Someone suffered the "wrath of Allah".

 

Victor Davis Hanson: Leftists Push Harmful Racial Stereotypes and Face No Consequences

Recently, former MSNBC host Joy Reid blasted white people on her podcast, saying “they can’t invent anything.”
A few years ago, a prominent writer for The New Yorker magazine regularly posted hateful things about white people on her social media. 

She openly said she “hated them” and that white people are “dirty” and “responsible for plagues” in history.
It’s potentially very damaging when individuals say these kinds of things from positions of influence and power—such as a former MSNBC anchor and The New Yorker magazine writer—and aren’t called out for it.

• This double standard is certainly noticeable because if white people said any of this about other ethnic groups, there would be zero tolerance for that kind of rhetoric.

"Contracts" are "free-money" to favored political supporters!-----The Department of Homeland Security is scrapping thousands of Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) contracts after billions of dollars in waste and fraud were found.

The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) found FEMA spending on inflated contracts, duplicate services and programs it called fraudulent or unnecessary... - Ashley Brasfield

• Nearly $10.7 million went to the Ready Campaign’s media deliverables for public safety announcements, while 
• another $3.3 million funded internal marketing meant to cajole FEMA employees into completing an annual survey.
• The agency also spent $1.6 million on two workshops that covered basics like agendas, save-the-date emails, venue reservations and transportation. 
• Another $1.27 million went to a “conference center concierge” tasked with setting up rooms, arranging audio equipment and keeping spaces clean.
• Other contracts included $594,000 to file and shred paperwork for the Employee Relations Branch,
•  $500,000 for a social media recruiting push and 
• $150,000 for a diversity and employee coaching program...

Child abuse to enrich and empower the worst humans on the planet!

Trump calls for Department of War to strengthen US deterrence | Blaze Media:

When Donald Trump said this week, “I don’t want to be defense only. We want defense, but we want offense too,” some people freaked out. They called him a warmonger. He isn’t. Trump is channeling a principle older than him: peace through strength. Ronald Reagan preached it; Trump is taking it a step further.

Sooo, what are they gonna do??-----German Chancellor Admits That Welfare State Is Running Out of Other People's Money - Stephen Kruiser

The biggest, boldest lie of every welfare state is that the goods and services it is providing to its citizens are "free." 

This is from a Wall Street Journal Opinion piece titled "A Politician Speaks the Unspeakable":

...Friedrich Merz, the German Chancellor, said at a Christian Democratic Union conference on Saturday that “the welfare state that we have today can no longer be financed with what we produce in the economy.”...

• Merz is a center-right politician, so it's not odd that he believes this; it's just a surprise that he is saying it...

10 FBI whistleblowers – who warned of ‘political weaponization’ and faced retaliation from Biden admin – reach settlements with DOJ

“These 10 whistleblowers’ brave actions were met with intense bureaucratic blowback that caused severe financial and emotional hardship,” Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) said in a statement announcing the settlements. “Their lives were upended for years, but I never stopped fighting until things were made right.” - Victor Nava

• All 10 FBI whistleblowers received lump sum settlement payments.

Under the Biden administration, the whistleblowers were wrongly subjected to demotions, security clearance revocation and indefinite unpaid administrative leave – collectively amounting to “over 12 years’ worth of inappropriate suspension time,” according to Grassley’s office...
The whistleblowers who reached settlements include:

• FBI Special Agent Stephen Friend - Friend was suspended indefinitely without pay and had his security clearance pulled after he objected to a SWAT team being used to arrest a January 6 riot defendant on a misdemeanor charge...
• FBI Special Agent Garret O’Boyle...

Instapundit - IT’S A BIG DEAL WHEN THE WASHINGTON MONTHLY IS ADMITTING THIS:

How Florida Universities Became World-Class.

In the Washington Monthly’s 2025 Best Colleges for Your Tuition (and Tax) Dollars, seven Florida universities rank in the top 100 (out of more than 1,400 schools)...And 10 of the top 20 colleges on the Monthly’s Best Bang for the Buck ranking for the Southeast are in Florida.

Why do so many Florida universities do so well on the magazine’s rankings? Part of it is that Florida is a populous state with lots of universities. But Michigan and Pennsylvania have about the same combined population as Florida (23 million). Yet only two Pennsylvania colleges, both private—Haverford (19) and Swarthmore (37)—make the top 100 in the Monthly’s Best Colleges for Your Tuition (and Tax) Dollars, and none from Michigan do.

Of course, they’re quick to inform us that it has absolutely nothing to do with Ron DeSantis. -  Glenn Reynolds
