McCarthy vows to boot Schiff from Intel committee over Hunter Biden laptop lies - TheBlaze

"Two years ago, Schiff stated the emails found from Hunter Biden were all a whole smear on Joe Biden that comes from the Kremlin. That's what the head of the Intel said ... and what did we just find out yesterday from the New York Times? Yes, it is Joe Biden's laptop, and yes, Adam Schiff lied to us one more time."

Meltdown: Brian Stelter Imploding over 'Disinformation' Hunter Biden Email Claims

Meltdown: Brian Stelter Imploding over 'Disinformation' Hunter Biden Email Claims

Stelter has not replied any further when asked about these comments from the former CNN employee, to whom Breitbart News granted anonymity to protect this person’s ability to speak freely.

Stelter has also not answered a series of detailed questions from Breitbart News about his role and position when it comes to the internal investigation at CNN. Stelter did not answer when asked if he has already sat for an interview or deposition as part of Judge Forrest’s investigation or, if he has not yet been interviewed, does he expect to be requested to, and if asked, will he cooperate. Stelter has also not said whether if interviewed he will be honest about his communications with Zucker, Gollust, and Cuomo.

Stelter also would not agree to a broader interview about the problems at CNN and refused to answer if he had any thoughts on Cuomo’s lawsuit just filed against CNN and if he thinks Cuomo’s allegations against other CNN anchors like Jake Tapper and Don Lemon were credible.

A national tragedy!


 

America's disgusting media-----Nolte: The Corporate Media Owe Emma-Jo Morris an Apology

Nolte: The Corporate Media Owe Emma-Jo Morris an Apology

"Almost 18 months after the New York Post ran the story about Hunter Biden’s laptop, on Thursday, the far-left New York Times admitted the story was true — that the laptop was real, that the contents of the laptop as reported out by the New York Post were real. Please note that I used the word “admitted,” not “confirmed,” or “verified.” That’s an important distinction.

But I want to return to Emma-Jo Morris...put yourselves in her shoes…

You flawlessly report out the most consequential story of the 2020 presidential campaign, a true story, a story about the worst kind of political corruption, a story that matters, a story that still matters (I’ll get to that in a second), and your own government and everyone in your own profession and the billionaires in Silicon Valley, not only team up to kill your true story, by extension, they question your character and ethics.

Have you ever been falsely accused of something? I have. It’s pretty goddamned awful. But even I can’t imagine living through this...Read all!

"What really happened at the Yale Law School protest. 

  • “So why does any of this matter? Well, because Yale Law students disrupted an event, not once but repeatedly. They also disrupted other classes, one of which had to be moved to Zoom because of the noise. 
  • And despite all of that, Mark Joseph Stern at Slate has put forward a cherry-picked account to claim the protests weren’t really out of line. He then claimed right-wing outlets were using false claims to spread a narrative about left-leaning students. This is almost the opposite of reality.
To be fair, Slate has been garbage for the last twenty years or so.--Posted by Glenn Reynolds"

"Such flowery crap. 
It really says…
  • We will teach your kids to hate white people, capitalism and America under the guise of “wrestling with the complexity of history”. 
  • And we will let anyone take AP courses regardless of ability while AP continues to dumb-down the material so the underserved kids we refuse to teach how to read, write and do math can pass.

MDE Recognizes the Alignment of Comprehensive History in AP Courses -March 18, 2022

LANSING – Teaching of the comprehensive history of the United States is built into the fabric of the national Advanced Placement (AP) program...has in its statement of principles an opposition to censorship..“foster an open-minded approach to the histories and cultures of different peoples.”
...We do well to teach the full breadth of our history, in social studies and in literature, and to wrestle with the complexity of that history, rather than to limit our children’s knowledge and to suffer the adverse impacts of ignorance.”
...The College Board states that it “encourages the elimination of barriers that restrict access to AP courses for students from ethnic, racial and socioeconomic groups that have been traditionally underrepresented in the AP Program. Schools should make every effort to ensure that their AP classes reflect the diversity of their student population.”

"Now the International Energy Agency (IEA) has proposed...measures Western economies could reduce daily oil demand by 2.7 million barrels within four months by restricting how people drive, indicating the move to reduce highway speed could almost offset the 3 million barrel-a-day loss of Russian production for April. 

"These efforts would reduce the price pain being felt by consumers around the world, lessen the economic damage, shrink Russia's hydrocarbon revenues, and help move oil demand to a more sustainable pathway," IEA said. 

The IEA has unveiled a ten-point action plan it hopes Western countries will implement to curtail oil demand.  

  1. Reduce speed limits on highways by at least 10 km/h
  2. Work from home up to three days a week where possible
  3. Car-free Sundays in cities
  4. Make the use of public transport cheaper and incentivise micromobility, walking and cycling

UMich anti-racism advisor: Whites ‘colonizing,’ ‘oppressing’ campus multicultural center

"An advisor to the University of Michigan student government wrote a letter to the school’s Board of Regents last month complaining that a campus multicultural center is being “colonized” and “oppressed” by white students.
  • Byron Brooks, a graduate student in social work and education and an advisor to the school’s Anti-Racism Commission, says in his letter that after “observing campus conditions and hosting listening tours,” an issue of “inequity” has become evident: white students are “crowding” students of color who are seeking a safe campus space.
  • Brooks notes the Trotter Multicultural Center began as Trotter House, a cultural center for black students. But now, “the very students who fought for Trotter’s inception are being oppressed through the power and privilege that is embedded within our community.”

Adam Carolla tells Megyn Kelly that children have been forced to mask in schools for a much more nefarious reason than just COVID-19 - TheBlaze

Comedian Adam Carolla told Megyn Kelly that he believes children are forced to continue wearing masks in schools in order to teach them compliance.

What are the details?

Carolla, who appeared on Tuesday's broadcast of "The Megyn Kelly Show" podcast, told Kelly that he doesn't agree with the Los Angeles Unified School District's decision to continue masking children in schools.

"Thank you, L.A. Unified School District, and thank you, teachers' unions — they're a bunch of cowards," he thundered, "and hypocrites, and there is no science to what they're doing."
