The fact that democrat voters support this criminal organization says much about democrat voters.-----Hunter Biden's Ex-Mistress Wants to Know Who's Paying His 'Stable of American Super Lawyers'

Hunter Biden's Ex-Mistress Wants to Know Who's Paying His 'Stable of American Super Lawyers' - Alana Goodman
  • Hunter Biden’s ex-mistress Lunden Alexa Roberts is asking a court to force the president's son to disclose who is paying for his "stable of American super lawyers," arguing that his high-priced legal team contradicts his claim that he can’t afford to pay child support.
"Biden has retained "some of the most expensive attorneys on planet Earth," according to a motion filed by Roberts in an Arkansas court on Thursday, including former Arkansas attorney general Dustin McDaniel, prominent Washington fixer Abbe Lowell, and Hollywood celebrity lawyer Kevin Morris...

NYT on Joe Biden: 'Government Can Function Without a Healthy President'

A New York Times columnist downplayed Democrats’ concerns over President Joe Biden’s declining health Wednesday as he announced his reelection bid this week, arguing the country does not need a fully-functioning president.

The Times’s David Leonhardt wrote in a newsletter on Wednesday, “Strange as it may sound, the American government can function without a healthy president.”

Canada Suddenly Brands Nuclear Power Clean Energy | Principia Scientific Intl. -  by Parker Gallant
  • Canada’s Federal Minister of the Environment and Climate Change, has in the past consistently regarded nuclear power in a derogatory fashion.
"For the foregoing reason it is surprising the recently released 2023 Federal Budget proposed to
“introduce a 15 per cent refundable tax credit for eligible investments in Non-emitting electricity generation systems: wind, concentrated solar, solar photovoltaic, hydro (including large-scale), wave, tidal, nuclear (including large-scale and small modular reactors)“...

Trump's Triumphs, From A to Z

Trump's Triumphs, From A to Z - Deroy Murdock
"America is sinking among the waves of incompetence, impotence, and fiscal incontinence of democratic socialist President Joe Biden
It is jarring to recall how much brighter things looked just 27 months ago, after four years of President Donald Trump’s triumphs, and before Biden arrived and wrecked everything.
From A to Z, here are 26 things that Trump got right:
  • Abraham Accords: Trump brokered four peace agreements among Israel and other countries—Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, Morocco, and Sudan.
  • Border wall: Trump’s 458 miles of concrete and steel fortified the border and curbed illegal immigration before Biden obliterated America’s southern frontier.
  • Consular offices in Jerusalem were upgraded to a U.S. Embassy, thus enforcing the relevant statute that Presidents Bill Clinton through Barack Obama circumvented.
  • Deregulation: Trump promised to kill two old regulations for every new one imposed. American Action Forum counts 4.7 existing rules junked per new one implemented.
  • Energy Independence: Trump achieved the impossible dream of U.S. self-reliance and then made America globally dominant as a net exporter of energy for the first time since 1952.
  • Freedom-of-speech protection, per Trump’s executive order, became a prerequisite for colleges to receive federal funds...

IF THAT HURTS YOU, GOOD. STUPIDITY SHOULD BE PAINFUL.

Instapundit-IF THAT HURTS YOU, GOOD. STUPIDITY SHOULD BE PAINFUL.
The ‘Hurtful’ Idea of Scientific Merit: Ideology now dominates research in the U.S. more pervasively than it did at the Soviet Union’s height.
"Until a few months ago, we’d never heard of the Journal of Controversial Ideas, a peer-reviewed publication whose aim is to promote “free inquiry on controversial topics.” 
Our research typically didn’t fit that description. 
We finally learned of the journal’s existence, however, when we tried to publish a commentary about how modern science is being compromised by a de-emphasis on merit. 
Apparently, what was once anodyne and unobjectionable is now contentious and outré, even in the hard sciences.
  • Merit isn’t much in vogue anywhere these days
...Our intent was to defend established and effective practices of judging science based on its merit alone...
...Every institutions has been corrupted. - Glenn Reynolds

Randi Weingarten's senate hearing testimony fact checked - Louder With Crowder

Randi Weingarten's senate hearing testimony fact checked - Louder With Crowder

Leftists are attempting "The Great Backtrack." People like Justin Trudeau, Anthony Fauci (who was awarded a Presidential Commendation by Donald Trump), and others want you to forget all the freedoms they took away from you, all the mandates, and all the "public health orders" they forced on you that were WORSE for your health. But few people can choke on a bag of dicks more than teachers' union mob boss Randi Weingarten. The teachers' unions colluded with the CDC to keep schools closed. They were busted rewriting the guidelines that kept your kids in masks. Masks, mind you, that Weingarten KNEW impeded learning. And yesterday at senate hearing, she attempted to say "Nuh-uh."

Randi Weingarten is an evil liar

Randi Weingarten is an evil liar - DAVID STROM
"Does the headline sound harsh?
It is accurate on both counts. 
  • Randi Weingarten has been and remains an advocate for evil policies and is, indeed, a provable liar.
Consider her testimony before Congress.

(Pradeep, by the way, is a great account to follow on Twitter. As am I.)
For those of you who live in a cave and just turned on your computers for the first time, Randi Weingarten is the head of the American Federation of Teachers. 
She helped spearhead the movement to close down schools and keep them closed for as long as humanly possible...

THEY LIED!-----It's junk science

It's junk science - DAVID STROM
"One of the most influential studies on the value of treating gender-dysphoric patients with “gender-affirming” care has been “corrected.” 
Not retracted, quite, as the authors admit that their research and conclusions were flawed, but they don’t go as far as to assert it was bunk.
  • It was, in fact, bunk. 
The Journal Public Discourse has a long and well worth reading article on why the research was terrible, and how they and others successfully pushed to get the correction. 
I encourage you to read it, although you may have to skip over some more technical criticisms regarding statistical methods.
As the critics asserted, once proper statistical methods were used the results turned out to be very different from the original claims...
The conclusion that gender-affirming care helps patients turned out to be wrong
Even the authors of the original study admit that now...

Media says voting threatens democracy - Don Surber
"The Jeff Bezos Post sent two reporters Grand Haven, Michigan, a town of 11,011 people and the county seat of Ottawa County. 
Their job was to do his newspaper’s version of a story in Politico in February, “What It Looks Like When the Far Right Takes Control of Local Government.”
The Jeff Bezos newspaper titled its entry in the hair-on-fire coverage of a western Michigan County’s politics, “In a thriving Michigan county, a community goes to war with itself.
“Ottawa County offers a glimpse of what happens when one of the building blocks of American democracy is consumed by ideological battles.”
One of the changes made was to the county’s motto “that sat atop the county’s website and graced its official stationery.”
The 186-year-old county adopted that motto — Where You Belong — six years ago.
The new one is Where Freedom Rings.
Freedom must be a threat to democracy, too...

  • A Washington school district is planning to cut music classes it believes promote “white supremacy culture” and “significant institutional violence.”
  • The Olympia School District — which is facing a budget shortfall of $11.5 million — voted last week to eliminate band and strings for fourth-graders in an effort to both save money and fight racism.
  • School Board Director Scott Clifthorne admitted during the meeting that research proves music classes are “healthy for young minds,” but that they are disproportionately rolled out across the district’s 12 elementary schools...

Report: Teachers' union under Randi Weingarten 'colluded' with Biden administration to keep schools shuttered and on CDC messaging - TheBlaze

Newly revealed emails detailed by the New York Post highlight how the American Federation of Teachers and its boss Randi Weingarten exerted significant influence over the Biden administration and shaped the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's school reopening guidance, which halted the full reopening of in-person classes. The damning revelations come just ahead of Weingarten's Wednesday testimony before the Congressional Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic.

Polls’ Representative Samples Often Merit Skepticism

Polls’ Representative Samples Often Merit Skepticism 
"When people read about a poll, they are often told something like this: 
  • Pollsters call a random group of people. 
  • Though small, we can infer this group is a representative sample of the U.S. population because it was selected randomly. 
  • Then, if we know the sample size, we can calculate the margin of error, which helps us understand how likely the survey results are to capture reality.
  • This Statistics 101 version frequently carries a disclaimer to the effect: “These findings come from a nationally representative sample of 2,000 Americans with a margin of error of plus or minus 2.2%.” 
Here is the uncomfortable truth
Though the disclaimer remains, nearly nobody does the textbook version of polling anymore...
