Damning Evidence in Autopen Scandal: More Activity in Last 100 Days of Biden Admin Than in His First Three and a Half Years
Damning Evidence in Autopen Scandal: More Activity in Last 100 Days of Biden Admin Than in His First Three and a Half Years:
More executive action took place in those days than the rest of the term, including the pardons of Dr. Anthony Fauci, retired Gen. Mark Milley, the Jan. 6 committee, and Hunter Biden took place during that time and numerous executive orders.
But if these weren’t done at the behest of Joe Biden, then who abused the executive power? And will Comer and Co. be able to bring them to justice?
Wow!!!-----Swiss glacier collapse: How the village of Blatten was wiped off the map - BBC News
The village of Blatten has stood for centuries, then in seconds it was gone.
- Scientists monitoring the Nesthorn mountain above the village in recent weeks saw that parts of it had begun to crumble, and fall on to the Birch glacier, putting enormous pressure on the ice.
- Small rock and ice slides had begun to come down, and the village’s 300 residents, and even their livestock, were evacuated for their own safety. But everyone hoped the unstable rock would disperse incrementally over a few weeks, and that after that everyone could go home.
- On Wednesday afternoon, that hope was dashed...
In the mid-19th century, a silent, unseen killer stalked the maternity wards of Europe, claiming the lives of countless new mothers.
Clarice Feldman - . It was a terrifying mystery, striking down women with a virulent disease known as childbed fever. - Ancient history - Ancient Whispers 
Yet, in the bustling wards of a Vienna hospital in 1847, a Hungarian physician named Ignaz Semmelweis was about to challenge the very foundations of medical understanding and, in doing so, revolutionize patient care forever.
Semmelweis observed a stark and horrifying difference between two maternity clinics: one where doctors and medical students, who often came directly from performing autopsies, delivered babies, and another staffed by midwives, where mortality rates from childbed fever were significantly lower.
Semmelweis observed a stark and horrifying difference between two maternity clinics: one where doctors and medical students, who often came directly from performing autopsies, delivered babies, and another staffed by midwives, where mortality rates from childbed fever were significantly lower.
- Through meticulous observation and a leap of intuition, he hypothesized that "cadaverous particles" from the dissection room were being unknowingly transferred on the hands of medical personnel to the birthing mothers, causing the deadly infection.
- This idea, predating the widespread acceptance of germ theory, was a radical departure from the prevailing medical beliefs of the time...
...Semmelweis's groundbreaking discovery was met with scorn and ridicule by the medical establishment.
The notion that respected physicians could be the unwitting carriers of disease was deeply offensive to their pride and challenged the accepted norms of the era....

WATCH: Bureaucrat caught admitting to 'bending the rules' to give illegals benefits * WorldNetDaily * by Cristina Laila, the Gateway Pundit:
The O'Keefe Media Group on Thursday released undercover video of a Nevada Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) Division of Welfare and Supportive Services specialist admitting to bending the rules to provide benefits for illegal aliens.
"I get them emergency medical all the time… I just approve them for 12 months because I can," Nevada DHHS specialist Deshaun Eli Mack said.
"Even undocumented people from Mexico and things; I can still get them benefits," he said.
HEADLINE: “The IPCC’s models of anthropogenic climate change lack predictive validity.”
“Who would have thunk it? - Stephen Heins
The IPCC models’ forecast errors were greater for most estimation samples —often many times greater—than those from a benchmark model that simply predicts that future years’ temperatures will be the same as the historical median.
The size of the forecast errors and unreliability of the models’ forecasts in response to additional observations in the estimation sample implies that the anthropogenic models fail to realistically capture and represent the causes of Earth’s surface temperature changes...
Finally, this study provides further evidence that measures of statistical fit provide misinformation about predictive validity...

Who ran the White House? Ask Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson under oath | Blaze Media:
The growing autopen scandal didn’t just reveal bureaucratic dysfunction — it exposed the collapse of constitutional order during Joe Biden’s presidency. For years, critics raised questions about Biden’s competence. But recent investigative findings paint a far darker picture. The debate is no longer about whether Biden was merely tired, was gaffe-prone, or had merely “lost his fastball.” The real question is much simpler: Who was actually running the White House?
The answer isn’t complicated.
They are lying to us!-----NERC’s latest reliability assessment is unreliable
NERC’s mission is to keep America’s grid reliable, which it has clearly failed to do. - From CFACT - David Wojick
There is a deep fallacy that lets NERC systematically avoid saying how bad things really are.
This fallacy is the dangerously misleading use of the word “normal.”
This fallacy is the dangerously misleading use of the word “normal.”
Here is a good example (out of many). Their basic finding is that “all areas are assessed as having adequate anticipated resources for normal summer peak load conditions.”...
- The fallacy is that there is no such thing as “normal” summer conditions for a given day, week, month, or season.
They really mean average conditions, and these are rare, not normal...
We need a realistic reliability assessment.

Seattle Police union president warns of a 'long, long summer' after mayor backs Antifa over officers, Christians
“If we're already below minimum safe staffing levels, and you've got these guys on the line who are getting assaulted by Antifa, and no mention from the mayor about the injuries on cops… we gotta buckle up for a long, long summer.” - Ari Hoffman
- The controversy erupted after Antifa targeted a Christian concert on Saturday. Antifa militants injured several Seattle police officers, but Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell blamed the violence on Christian worshipers.
- Solan said officers were left without proper support or recognition, claiming that Harrell appeared more focused on managing political optics than ensuring the safety of those on the front lines.
“Cops got put into the hospital,” Solan stated, referencing injuries sustained during violent protests... a dire state marked by depleted staffing and political abandonment...

Life in America today-----Some have suggested I need to point out this is satire

WASHINGTON, D.C. — In an attempt to clear up lingering confusion over the role of the nation's chief executive and avoid ongoing injunctions to block executive actions, the White House asked a federal judge if there's anything the president is actually allowed to do.
After being repeatedly stymied on nearly every attempted action, the Trump administration sought clarification to find out what, exactly, the president of the United States is allowed to do, if anything.
- "So, like, can the president do anything?
- Or no?" asked lead White House counsel David Warrington in a brief submitted to a federal judge.
- "We were totally under the impression that the president is, like, really important and has a lot of power, but if that's not the case, it would be helpful to know.
Are there actually things the president can do, or is the presidency more like just a powerless ceremonial title, like the King of England or the Governor of North Dakota?"
When asked for comment, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt echoed the curiosity about the president's role in the government.
When asked for comment, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt echoed the curiosity about the president's role in the government.
- "It would be great to find out," she said. "I thought the president was in charge of the executive branch and could make decisions, but maybe not.
- We've learned he's obviously not as powerful as a federal judge or something like that.
- Getting some clarity on whether or not he can actually do anything could make the next four years easier."
At publishing time, a federal judge issued a ruling declaring it illegal for the White House to even ask what the president was allowed to do.

THE DEMOCRATS HAVE A MESSAGING PROBLEM WITH YOUNG MEN. WILL $20M FIX IT?- Jacques Voorhees | Facebook
Progressives really know how to win language wars and at least in the past, they’ve been right to focus on semantics. - Jacques Voorhees | Facebook 
Consider how they’ve managed to seize control of the debate by converting phrases such as these:
- Reverse Discrimination -> Affirmative Action
- Hiring based on skin color -> Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
- Illegal alien -> Undocumented immigrant
- Pedophile -> Minor-attracted person
- Censorship -> Content moderation
- Riots -> Mostly-peaceful protests
- Amnesty for illegals -> Pathway to citizenship
- Political indoctrination -> Inclusive education
- Abortion -> Reproductive health
- Abolishing the police -> Re-imagining public safety
- Teaching people to be racist -> Critical race theory
- Disinformation -> Narrative correction...
OK, I’ll take your $20 million. Here are the words that will win back young men:If that doesn’t prove Democrats understand what young man care about, nothing will.
“Our policies were obviously wrong so we’ve now adopted the Republican Party Platform in its entirety. Plus: free Tinder memberships for all!”
Instapundit - "But it's not accurate."
Its based of a model and that model is intentionally flawed in order to be as extreme and hyperbolic as possible
