How the left turned the Voting Rights Act into a sword | Blaze Media
How the left turned the Voting Rights Act into a sword | Blaze Media:
Congress passed the Voting Rights Act in 1965 to end racial discrimination in voting primarily in the South. Among other things, the law ended the use of literacy tests to exclude people from voting, imposed “preclearance” requirements for new voting rules in certain states, and required ballots and election information to be printed in languages other than English. The VRA is credited with vastly expanding black voter registration and participation, particularly in the South. The law was originally designed to sunset after five years but went through a series of extensions and amendments over the decades.
The law also contains language that protects voters from intimidation, threats, and coercion while voting or aiding others to vote. These intimidation provisions are now being used as a weapon to fight against election integrity. Allow me to explain.

Medicine Now Diagnoses the Non-White 'Oppressed' With an Oppressive Case of 'Weathering' | RealClearInvestigations - By John Murawski 
"...While activist minister Jesse Jackson and health care leaders were decrying the crisis of “babies having babies” as a ghetto pathology, Geronimus contended that teenage pregnancy was a rational response to urban poverty where low-income black people have fewer healthy years before the onset of heart problems, diabetes, and other chronic conditions....
She has stated in interviews and in her writings that the term “weathering” was intended to evoke the idea of erosion and resilience.
A white professor at the University of Michigan whom The New York Times hailed last year as an “icon,” Geronimus has combined race theory with data and statistics to argue that the chronic stress of living in an oppressive, white-majority society causes damage at the cellular level and leads to obesity and other health conditions, resulting in shorter life expectancies for African Americans...

House delivers blow to Biden's climate agenda, votes against natural gas moratorium | Fox News:
The House voted Thursday afternoon in favor of stripping the Biden administration's authority to permit natural gas export projects in a blow to the president's climate agenda.
In a 224-200 vote, the House approved the so-called Unlocking Domestic LNG Potential Act, with 215 Republicans and nine Democrats voting in favor. Rep. August Pfluger, R-Texas, who chairs the House Energy Action Team, introduced the legislation on Feb. 1, arguing that it would ultimately overturn President Biden's recent actions pausing permits for new liquefied natural gas (LNG) export projects.

Thoughts on our ruling class monoculture - GLENN HARLAN REYNOLDS"Our modern ruling class is peculiar.
One of its many peculiarities is its penchant for fads, and what can only be called mass hysteria.
Repeatedly, we see waves in which something that nobody much cared about suddenly comes to dominate ruling class discourse...
There are several factors behind this, but one of the most important, I think, is that our ruling class is a monoculture...
I’ve written elsewhere, in a law review article titled Is Democracy Like Sex? that electoral turnover in democracies produces a moving target for special-interest groups (the political analog of parasites) and thus helps keep them from becoming too well adapted to the society that is their host.
I’ve written elsewhere, in a law review article titled Is Democracy Like Sex? that electoral turnover in democracies produces a moving target for special-interest groups (the political analog of parasites) and thus helps keep them from becoming too well adapted to the society that is their host.
As evolutionary biologist Thomas Ray observed, every successful system accumulates parasites, and the United States of America has been very successful indeed.
- I suggested that part of its success lay in electoral shifts that served keep special interests from locking in their positions entirely.
- But what I (mostly) missed when writing that piece many years ago, is that electoral turnover only affects one small piece of society. While elections change out elected officials sometimes, the rest of our society – the bureaucracy, academia, media, corporate leadership, what is generally known as the “gentry” or “ruling class” – remains the same...
WTF?!!-----Bill Gates’ dark dream of blocking sunlight from the Earth is about to be realized
Bill Gates’ dark dream of blocking sunlight from the Earth is about to be realized"Bill Gates, ever the demented snake oil salesman, has long argued in favor of a bizarre plan to fight global warming by using experimental geoengineering to partially block the sun’s rays from reaching Earth.
Well, he’s apparently about to get his wish.
Well, he’s apparently about to get his wish.
- Scientists plan to begin pumping chemicals into the sky over the next few weeks and months from several countries around the globe, including the U.S., Australia and Israel.
- The idea, promoted by Gates and leftist billionaire George Soros, involves pumping manmade white clouds containing chalk dust and other chemicals into the atmosphere to reflect sunlight away from the Earth’s surface.
