  • Police in Texas “said they were never made aware” that she was supposed to be under house arrest, “as she has left home to make music and videos.”
  • Was this simple negligence, or fear of appearing “Islamophobic,” or something else altogether?
LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — A woman accused of stabbing her date in a Las Vegas-area hotel room in retaliation for a U.S. drone strike that killed an Iranian leader is on house arrest in Texas, but police there said they were never made aware as she has left home to make music and videos...

"To claim these vaccines are 'safe and effective' while minimizing and disregarding the adverse events is unconscionable," he wrote. "As a father, physician, and Surgeon General for the State of Florida, I request that your agencies promote transparency in health care professionals to accurately communicate the risks these vaccines pose. I request that you work to protect the rights and liberties that we are endowed with, not restrict, and diminish them."

"...Who wish to be given without giving themselves.
  • Who look outward at every common obstacle in life as being unique to them and evidence of a collective effort to block their success rather than looking inward and asking themselves what they could have done more of, less of, or instead of in order to achieve that success.
  • Who focus only on exploiting the resources produced by others and ignoring the possibility of utilizing those resources to contribute more themselves.
  • Who expect the world to adapt to them in such a way that they will be assigned a reward rather than making the necessary changes in themselves that will lead to their earning of that reward.
  • Who will be unable or unwilling to distinguish between the concepts of want and need, of deserve and earn, of take and share...
And, sadly, there will always be that element of society who feels the drive to prop those people up and allow them to receive the compensation of effort without the actuality of effort.
When we as a common society have lost sight of the notions of risk=return and effort=reward, and have replaced them with the concepts of want=merit and entitlement=benefit... we have begun a slow but steady spiral down to our own undoing.
Because when too many are looking for a handout, we will soon discover that every hand is empty."

Endless "free-money".

"Half of Americans in a recent survey indicated they believe national news organizations intend to mislead, misinform, or persuade the public to adopt particular points of view through their reporting.

'Abortion travel agency': Pentagon will allow military members to travel for abortions on taxpayer dime - TheBlaze

'Abortion travel agency': Pentagon will allow military members to travel for abortions on taxpayer dime - TheBlaze

The language "non-covered reproductive health care" is important. Legally speaking, the Defense Department cannot use taxpayer funds to pay for abortions; that would violated the Hyde Amendment. But apparently, it can use taxpayer funds to assist in service members getting abortions. This means that service members stationed in a locality where abortion is not legal will be granted taxpayer funds to travel to another state where abortion is legal to end their pregnancy.

"Independent journalist Glenn Greenwald weighs in on 'the biggest financial scandal' in history' on 'Tucker Carlson Tonight.'
Politicians and liberal media outlets on the receiving end of FTX donations and grants are sitting on "stolen" money, journalist Glenn Greenwald said Tuesday, urging them to return the funds given to them as a result of a "Ponzi scheme" that impacted an estimated one million customers.
"Everyone knows, including these politicians, that it is not their money," Greenwald said on "Tucker Carlson Tonight." 
"That money was stolen. It was a Ponzi scheme and people are without their money while these politicians keep the money that doesn’t belong to them."...

UCF's Racism in the Name of "Anti-Racism" | City Journal

UCF's Racism in the Name of "Anti-Racism" | City Journal - Christopher F. Rufo 
"The Social Order - The University of Central Florida has adopted radical Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programming that 
  • segregates students by race
  • condemns the United States as “white-supremacist culture,” and 
  • encourages active discrimination against the “oppressor” class, characterized as “male, White, heterosexual, able-bodied, and Christian.”
Officially, UCF reports that it has 14 separate DEI programs, costing in the aggregate more than $4 million per year. 
But this dramatically understates the reality, which is that the ideology of “diversity, equity, and inclusion” has been entrenched everywhere. 
The university’s administration and academic departments have created a blizzard of programs, classes, trainings, reports, committees, certifications, events, documents, policies, clubs, groups, conferences, and statements pledging UCF to left-wing racialism...

"In case you missed it, several border patrol agents testified before Congress and accused Biden of sending the message that our border is open.
The people on the front lines of our border crisis have to deal with Biden’s failures every day, even if it puts them in danger, but Biden has turned his back on these heroes who keep our country safe. Biden should be impeached.
  • His primary duty is to keep America safe from invasion
He has encouraged it, plus uses our tax dollars to support them. 
No one should accept his behavior, especially those in congress."

Oregon judge rules against local Second Amendment sanctuary laws, calling sheriffs who allow them 'racist' | Fox News

The Oregon Court of Appeals on Wednesday ruled that local governments in the state cannot declare themselves Second Amendment sanctuaries and prohibit police from enforcing statewide gun laws. It was the first court defeat for the concept, which has been adopted by as many as 1,200 conservative local governments in response to Democrat-run cities and local jurisdictions that have declared themselves "sanctuary cities" and refuse to enforce federal immigration laws.

Halfway through this year’s Super Bowl, U.S. Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm declared electric vehicles the big winner of the night...

On further review, what should have been electric vehicles’ big night only showed how necessary the internal combustion engine still is.
An ad for the Ram 1500 REV was one of the night’s most memorable.
...No need to worry, Ram says. 
There is a “range extender” available.
What the minute-long commercial failed to mention is that the range extender is an internal combustion engine, powered by gasoline...

"The Strongest Evidence Yet That Covid Masks Are Worthless. 

The gold standard in medical research, the Cochrane review of clinic trials, finds no evidence that surgical or even N95 masks made any difference in stopping the spread of Covid. 

Naturally, the CDC’s director vows to ignore the world’s most respected authority on health interventions. 

The CDC, the only national health agency to recommend masking two-year-olds, peddled junk science throughout the pandemic to justify its cruel policies, so why stop now?
