Faster, Blue Cities! Kill! Kill! Lawrence Person's BattleSwarm Blog

"Dwight sent over this New York Post piece on how a dozen blue-led cities have already set all-time murder records.

At least 12 major US cities have already set historical murder records in 2021, even as three weeks remain in the year.

Philadelphia, the nation’s sixth largest city, recorded 523 murders as of Dec. 7, surpassing its formal grim milestone of 500 murders, which was set in 1990, police data showed...

I covered Austin’s record murder rate here.

Five of those cities topped notorious benchmarks that were set in 2020, the article said. All of them were led by Democratic mayors, as are the vast majority of US cities.

...Rick goes on to explain that Krasner is engaging in some political sleight of hand here. Krasner is able to say that crime isn’t spiking because he simply isn’t prosecuting criminals who would have been prosecuted in the past. Progressive DAs are almost always pro-criminal.

Oh, wait…Philly is also in the midst of a frightening increase in homicides. The city has suffered its highest body count since 1960.

So, there is no real problem as long as you ignore the dead guy on your lawn...Read all.

'Cabal' that bragged of foisting Joe Biden on us must answer for his presidency

'Cabal' that bragged of foisting Joe Biden on us must answer for his presidency

"It’s time to admit it. 

Less than a year in, Joe Biden’s is a failed presidency. 

Biden knows it, the press knows it, and voters know it.

And our foreign adversaries like China and Russia know it.
It’s also time to look at the “cabal” of business, labor and political leaders who foisted the Biden administration on us.

That won’t be hard, as they were openly bragging about their efforts less than a year ago.Gas prices hit an all-time high in California last month, with the highest prices in the country.
...Normally when you get a bad president, voters are to blame. 

They decided what they wanted and, in H.L. Mencken’s famous phrase, deserve to get it good and hard. But in saddling America with the Biden administration, the voters got more than a nudge.
As Time magazine reported shortly after the 2020 election, a “cabal” — Time’s word — of “left-wing activists and business titans” worked to get rid of Trump. 

• It pushed mail-in voting. 
• It moved to block election-fraud suits brought by Trump and supporters. 
• It employed social-media censorship to mute pro-Trump arguments and amplify anti-Trump arguments. It sponsored protests...Read all.

Federal judge blocks Biden's vaccine mandate for federal contractors - TheBlaze

Federal judge blocks Biden's vaccine mandate for federal contractors - TheBlaze: 

A federal judge in Georgia has blocked the Biden administration's vaccine mandate for federal contractors, in yet another legal defeat for the president.

"A Georgia district court has ordered the federal government to temporarily stop enforcing the vaccine mandate for federal contractors. This nationwide halt is the result of our own lawsuit and marks the third of Biden’s vaccine mandates to be stopped by the courts," Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr said Tuesday.

Still Crazy After All The Data - by Mark Wauck

• Alex Berenson draws attention to the insanity that’s continuing at US colleges, and he states the telltale disconnect with reality in simple and succinct terms:

Meanwhile, colleges and universities are now requiring Covid vaccine boosters

The insanity in higher education continues.

Bowdoin College and Syracuse University are just two of the institutions of higher education now telling students to get boosted or get lost. Here’s Bowdoin’s email from yesterday [all-caps in original]: “effective January 21, 2022, Bowdoin is requiring all students, faculty, and staff to receive a COVID-19 booster shot within thirty (30) days of becoming eligible.”

Keep in mind:

1: The risk of severe disease or death from Covid [the disease] to healthy college-age adults is too low to measure accurately. The data from Europe suggests that a healthy 18 year-old has a risk of death lower than 1 in 1 million.

2: The risk of dangerous heart inflammation [from the injection] is NOT too low to measure. A new study from Hong Kong found that for 1 out of 2,300 12-17 year-old boys who received both Pfizer doses suffered acute myocarditis or pericarditis.

Most of the risk came after the second dose. The risk is very similar in college-age men...Read all!

Omicron Fever — I've Got It!

Omicron Fever — I've Got It!

"...this omicron variant? Bring it on, baby!
As I reported yesterday:

“Mild” is the same word used by Angelique Coetzee, the South African doctor who was one of the first to identify the [omicron] variant. People she treated with omicron had symptoms “so different and so mild from those I had treated before,” she said.

Virtually all of Netcare’s patients “presented with mild to moderate flu-like symptoms, including a blocked or runny nose, headache and a scratchy or sore throat.”

“Take a NyQuil and don’t bother calling me in the morning,” is pretty much what my doctor would tell me to do with those symptoms, provided they didn’t get any worse.

...So I’d like to catch the omicron variant, and I’d like to catch it as soon as possible — just to get the brief flu-like misery over before Christmas, New Year’s, and my older son’s birthday.

• The best part? That Israeli study showing that a combination of natural immunity plus vaccination is the best protection against some nastier variant....Read all.

Net-Zero Gambit Depends on Green Subsidy Gusher

Net-Zero Gambit Depends on Green Subsidy Gusher

"A group of 450 financial firms attending the U.N.’s COP-26 climate conference in Glasgow have generously pledged $130 trillion in capital to finance a global transition to obtain net-zero carbon emissions. That’s more than 135 percent of the world’s gross domestic product in 2021.
They’ve made this commitment in the expectation that government mandates, handouts, and incentives will force fossil fuel and nuclear energy industries out of business, to be replaced by politically favored wind and solar, and artificial demand created for electric vehicles, which currently constitute only 3 percent of automotive sales.

This big government spending switcheroo from free market capitalism to corporate socialism, or state capitalism, doesn’t come cheap...Read all.

“In our commitment to abolition, we can never believe police, especially the Chicago Police Department (CPD) over Jussie Smollett,” Dr. Melina Abdullah, Director of BLM Grassroots and Co-Founder of BLM Los Angeles, said in a statement. Abdullah also described Smollett as a black man “who has been courageously present, visible, and vocal in the struggle for black freedom.”

“While policing at-large is an irredeemable institution, CPD is notorious for its long and deep history of corruption, racism, and brutality,” she continued...Read all.

Top Dem Economist Says Woke Math Is a National Security Threat: 

Radical education activists want to purge math curricula of allegedly racist practices, which include showing your work and arriving at the right answer. Democratic donors have played a role in propagating this now-popular trend in math education, the Washington Free Beacon previously reported. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation bankrolled A Pathway to Equitable Math Instruction, the nonprofit behind a curriculum that asks teachers to observe how math "is used to uphold capitalist, imperialist, and racist views."

Don't look now, but even farmers markets and food charities exude 'white supremacy' and perpetuate 'white dominant culture,' college webinar claims - TheBlaze

Don't look now, but even farmers markets and food charities exude 'white supremacy' and perpetuate 'white dominant culture,' college webinar claims - TheBlaze: 

She took particular aim at farmers markets as being too white. She uses a quote from Rachel Slocum (“a preeminent researcher on whiteness and food”) as a jumping-off point.

“What that does is it erases the past and present of race and agriculture. What whiteness also does is ‘mobilizes funding to predominantly white organizations who then direct programming at nonwhite beneficiaries,'” she said. “And we’ll talk about that a little bit more when we talk about communities that can’t take care of themselves.
