Two intriguing points about the Durham allegations - American Thinker
Two intriguing points about the Durham allegations - American Thinker
- "...First, I missed something very important in Durham's motion...What Bongino caught is that Durham wrote "among the Internet data ... was domain name system ... Internet traffic." That strongly implies that DNS information, which simply means sites accessed, isn't the only information involved. It's possible that Durham can show that there are other internet data that the Hillary camp exploited, things such as emails or shared documents.
- Second, Bongino thinks the real bombshell in this is that Durham is warning Sussmann that Latham & Watkins is a very dangerous law firm to have representing him. The reason is that one of the top Latham & Watkins attorneys is a gal named Kathryn Ruemmler or, as Bongino calls her, "The Fixer." He points out that Ruemmler has her finger in every single corrupt pie baked during the Obama administration....Bongino believes that both Obama and, probably, Biden knew about the spying. Ruemmler's job, as always, will be to keep Obama clean. As a power partner at Latham & Watkins, she can be expected to force the "Sacrifice of Sussmann," if need be...Read all.

Canadian civil rights org fires back at Justin Trudeau over decision to invoke Emergencies Act: 'Threatens our democracy' - TheBlaze:
The Canadian Civil Liberties Union published a defiant message condemning Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau for using increasingly powerful methods to quell Freedom Convoy protests.
What is the background?
Trudeau announced Monday that Canada's federal government would, for the first time in its history, invoke the Emergencies Act to stop the protests and silence those advocating for freedom. Invoking the Emergencies Act gives Trudeau enormous power to end the politically inconvenient protests.

Reporter grills WH about Durham revelations, but spox refuses to address them: 'My answer is not going to change' - TheBlaze:
During Monday's press briefing, Fox News White House correspondent Jacqui Heinrich repeatedly pressed White House principal deputy press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre about the revelations. Jean-Pierre, however, bucked each attempt.
In fact, before Heinrich could even finish her initial question, Jean-Pierre had already refused to answer it.
Why Nearly 40 Percent of Gen Z Identify as LGBTQ - American Thinker
Why Nearly 40 Percent of Gen Z Identify as LGBTQ - American Thinker
"I was shocked not long ago when I read a piece on the Newsweek website.
"I was shocked not long ago when I read a piece on the Newsweek website.
The headline read “Nearly 40 Percent of U.S. Gen Zs, 30 Percent of Young Christians Identify as LGBTQ, Poll Shows.”
That, aside from Joe Biden providing free crack pipes to help address racial inequality, is the most absurd thing I may have ever read.
Not so much for the data itself per se, but rather, an illustration of exactly how malleable (and lost) young Americans are.
Whatever the natural percentage of LGBTQwhatever people in the United States is, it’s sure as hell not 40%.

D.C. Bill Would Ban Hospitals From Serving Bacon to Dying Patients
D.C. Bill Would Ban Hospitals From Serving Bacon to Dying Patients
...The legislation is based on a 2017 resolution from the American Medical Association calling for hospitals to eliminate processed meats, promote healthy beverages, and provide healthy food at reasonable prices.
- And to everyone else, too.
...The legislation is based on a 2017 resolution from the American Medical Association calling for hospitals to eliminate processed meats, promote healthy beverages, and provide healthy food at reasonable prices.
- The outright ban on processed meats—defined as meats that have been "been transformed through salting, curing, fermentation, smoking, or other processes to enhance flavor or improve preservation"—is
- complemented by a number of regulations to nudge people into picking healthier drinks. Cheh's bill would require that 75 percent of drinks in hospital vending machines, cafeterias, and cafes be non-sugar-sweetened beverages. Waters and sparkling waters would also have to be placed at eye-level in vending machines, or in the highest-selling position in the vending machine. Sodas would have to be placed farthest from eye level or in the lowest-selling position...Read all!

CNN anchor torches Biden for rejecting military reports critical of Afghanistan exit: 'Difficult to overstate how insulting' - TheBlaze
CNN anchor torches Biden for rejecting military reports critical of Afghanistan exit: 'Difficult to overstate how insulting' - TheBlaze:
Toward the end of CNN's "State of the Union," Tapper sharply criticized Biden for his sweeping dismissal of accounts critical of his administration's Afghanistan exit.
"It's difficult to overstate how insulting Biden's sweeping rejection is to so many service members and veterans, given the full content of the 2,000 pages of documents in this U.S. Army investigation, which CNN has also obtained," Tapper said.
Biden’s looming energy crunch
- If Putin invades Ukraine, who will fill the supply gap caused by sanctions?
Prices will get worse — much worse — if Putin invades.
President Biden has promised “swift, sharp sanctions” on Russia and an end to the Nord Stream II pipeline, which will supply Germany with much-needed Russian natural gas when it’s completed.
...If the US and its NATO partners apply those sanctions, they would leave a huge shortfall in European energy supplies and a smaller one in the US, which now relies on some Russian imports itself.
Russia currently supplies about 10 percent of the world’s energy and dominates Europe’s natural gas supplies, which are essential for home heating and power generation.
- The economic questions are obvious: who will fill the supply gap?
- How long will it take?
- What will happen to prices in the short- and medium-term?
- Will surging prices cause a major slowdown in Western economies?...Read all.

homeless crisis in bay area - TheBlaze
homeless crisis in bay area - TheBlaze:
Last year, California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) actually invited more homeless people to come from other states to pursue "new beginnings" in the Golden State, adding that Californians "have a responsibility to accommodate" these newcomers. Well, it looks like he meant this literally, as according to the Mercury News, government programs and nonprofits are now asking Bay Area property owners to help accommodate the area's nearly 30,000 homeless individuals.
Homeless people have taken the governor up on his offer, moving to the Bay Area to take advantage of $820 per month welfare and food stamp provisions as well as notoriously lax law enforcement.
Jordan Peterson Sends Passionate Message to Freedom Convoy: You've Changed the World, But What Now? - Louder With Crowder
Jordan Peterson Sends Passionate Message to Freedom Convoy: You've Changed the World, But What Now? - Louder With Crowder:
"I'd like to commend all of you for your diligence and work, on accomplishing what you have accomplished under trying conditions, and also for keeping your heads in a way that's been a model for the entire world. You've been able to remain peaceful. You haven't taken the bait. You haven't responded with violence to quite remarkable denigration and provocation. That's a sign of tremendous discipline and care."
As the denigration and provocation came from liberals and the media (but I repeat myself), not only did the protesters NOT take the bait but people who didn't start out as supporters were awakened to how the left and the media (again, repeating myself) actually operate.
The Freedom Convoy has been a huge success so far. Where it goes from here, the protesters have effected change in countries outside of Canada as well. Take a bow. Tell Trudeau what orifice he can stick his emergency powers.

A New Woke Low! Eating Meat Is EVERY Lib Buzzword EVER!

Adams gave her wokeapalooza rant at the Oxford Union. Some of the worst/best of Adam’s codswallop are:
- “Meat-eaters order leg of lamb, not a baby lamb’s leg [and] your hamburger comes with a dose of misogyny.”
- “The assumption that the best protein comes from corpses is a racist belief.”
- “White supremacists weaponized eating meat, eggs, and dairy, images of milk drinking white men, of platters groaning with meat and the baiting of liberal men as so-called soy-boys are all part of the neo-Nazi messaging.”
