Without the "hat-message" he'd be a rising star in Biden's Army!-----Update: 'Communism Will Win' Ex-Soldier Joins U. of Texas Grad Program
"A notorious self-proclaimed Marxist who was discharged from the U.S. Army is now attending the University of Texas as a grad student within its history department.
Spenser Rapone is best known for celebrating his May 2016 West Point graduation by wearing a Che Guevara T-shirt under his uniform, and displaying the message “Communism will win!” inside his military headcover.
While Rapone was eventually discharged from the U.S. Army after an investigation into his online conduct found that he was an advocate for a socialist revolution and disparaged high-ranking military officers, the former cadet has found a new home in the world of academia...Read all!

Former Navy SEAL Jocko Willink posts gut-check message to all of us as Taliban rolls through Afghanistan: 'When there is no will to fight, evil will win' - TheBlaze
Evil, in fact, that we're seeing right now as the Taliban once again takes over Afghanistan.
But never fear. Willink — who's become a sought-after motivational speaker since leaving the U.S. military — has some words for us to ponder in the face of this catastrophe.
Except don't think for a minute it's a message underscoring that "everything will be OK."
What did he say?
"The Taliban doesn't want to know your preferred pronouns, they want you to DIE."
What I have noticed, especially with left wing administrations, is that because they have never lived it or seen anybody not in their socioeconomic class or who has not spent the same decades in academia/government as they have, they see people the same way Marlin Perkins saw animals from his hide in the bush, from a distance...Read all!
Distorting the news!-----Google Rewrote News Algorithm to Target Trump | Newsbusters
"Google whistleblower Zach Vorhis says Google altered its news algorithm to directly target former President Donald Trump.
Vorhis was a senior software engineer at YouTube and Google. He left after discovering the companies censored conservatives.
Vorhis’ new book, Google Leaks: A Whistleblower’s Exposé of Big Tech Censorship, took a deep dive into Big Tech’s censorship of right-of-center conservatives:
...EpochTV interviewed Vorhis about Google’s methods and endgame. Vorhis said his research turned “conspiracy theories into conspiracy facts.”
He also said Google’s algorithm tacked new negative stories about Trump onto old ones in order to keep them at the top of search results longer.
“They allowed the mainstream media to structure their stories so that they could remain in the top of their search index,” he said...Read all!

The "real" enemies of the Biden buffoons'-----DHS List of Terror 'Threats' Should Raise All Kinds of Eyebrows
"Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security just issued a terror threat advisory which is raising some eyebrows.
Listen, as Lester Holt and Pete Williams describe how the “terror threat advisory” isn’t based on any actual threats or plots, but just a lot of “anti-government rhetoric” that includes things like “opposition to COVID measures” like masks and vaccine measures.

John Durham probe: Evidence presented to grand jury - Washington Times
WASHINGTON — John Durham, the federal prosecutor tapped to investigate the origins of the Russia investigation, has been presenting evidence before a grand jury as part of his probe, a person familiar with the matter said Friday.
The development is a potential sign that Durham may be mulling additional criminal charges beyond the one he brought last year against a former FBI lawyer who admitted altering an email about a Trump campaign aide who’d been under FBI surveillance. Durham is also expected to complete a report at some point.
A Justice Department spokesman declined to comment, citing an ongoing investigation.

Why bother to "work"????-----Biden to announce biggest permanent boost to food stamp benefits - mlive.com
"The Biden administration plans to announce the biggest long-term increase in food stamp benefits in the program’s history, giving Americans more money to buy groceries and adding billions of dollars in costs to the government.
Average benefits in October will go up by more than 25% from pre-pandemic levels for the 42 million people in the program, a U.S. official said, speaking on condition of anonymity before an announcement planned for Monday.
The increase means that average monthly benefits will rise $36 per person from $121, according to the official.

The scientific case against masks - Washington Times
His exact quote was: “I think people need to be reminded over and over that the experts are saying you have to wear masks… [For those of you shouting] ‘My freedom is being disturbed….’ Screw your freedom.”
Well, maybe we should do exactly what the Terminator implies and attend to what the real scientists have to say about all this. In other words, rather than spouting off on Instagram, let’s look at the longitudinal data presently available and ask some good questions. Questions like, Is there anything that demonstrates wearing masks is an efficacious strategy for mitigating the spread of Covid19? Is there any statistical proof that validates Mr. Schwarzenegger’s scold? Is he right in telling us to “screw our freedom” and, thereby, don a porous piece of paper or cloth to prove we are a science-believing and virtuous people?
Interestingly, when you take the time to read a bit, you quickly discover that this mask-shaming from America’s intelligentsia is – well, how should say this scientifically? – Stupid.
