Peeling the onion!-----New investigation reveals CDC inflated Covid threat level in kids as resignations rock the agency
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.”
Victor Davis Hanson: Leftists Push Harmful Racial Stereotypes and Face No Consequences
A few years ago, a prominent writer for The New Yorker magazine regularly posted hateful things about white people on her social media.
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.

With all the millions of "$cience" out there, a worthy, unanswered question.----- Instapundit - Minneapolis School Shooter Admitted He was ‘Tired of Being Trans’.
I’d guess he stopped taking estrogen and the full return of testosterone messed with his mind. Hormones are dangerous people. They’re not just a thing of the body, but also a thing of the mind. - Sarah Hoyt

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