Big bureaucracy fumbled COVID

Big bureaucracy fumbled COVID and our faith in institutions. Americans will never again trust what our health agencies tell us

Turning Down the Climate-Change Heat

Did you ever think you’d hear people as nasty as Bill Maher and Trevor Noah praise Donald Trump, but that’s what’s happening? Faced with the grim reality that Joe Biden has a head full of pudding and commands no respect from any corner of a dangerous world, these two are finally missing the 45th president of the United States.

A Pulitzer prize-winning New York Times reporter has been caught in a video by the conservative group Project Veritas admitting his colleagues vastly exaggerated the danger of the election integrity protest on Jan. 6.

On Saturday night an unnamed bidder purchased the ball from Tom Brady’s final touchdown pass for $518K, according to auction site Lelands. Not even 24 hours later it turned into an ordinary touchdown ball. It has to be one of the most hilarious, precipitous drops in the value of a piece of sporting memorabilia of all time.

Democrats haunted by calls to defund the police. Voters aren’t buying President Joe Biden’s claim that Democrats want to fund police around the nation, which could be an election-crushing problem that threatens the party’s hold on Congress.

Today it was revealed that Amazon is closing its downtown Seattle office, with 1,800 employees, because of out-of-control crime. Among other recent victims of downtown crime was an Amazon engineer who was assaulted with a baseball bat near the office in late January. To learn this story you had to go to the Daily Mail in London. As of this writing, the Seattle Times has nothing on the story at their home page or business page.

Russian forces are killing civilians and looting stores and homes across occupied parts of southern Ukraine. The last sentence has an important message for the anti-gun lobby: “Every time they see Ukrainians in a car, they demand to be given food and cigarettes, and then they let you through,” she said. “Our people can’t refuse because the Russian soldiers point guns at them. Our people have no guns.”

Putin’s War Tax Crushes Russian Investors. His invasion has been a disappointment on the battlefield and a disaster for bondholders.

A rapid Russian advance into the strategic southern town of 35,000 people, a gateway to a Ukrainian nuclear power station and pathway to attack Odessa from the back, would have showcased the Russian military’s abilities and severed Ukraine’s key communications lines. Instead, the two-day battle of Voznesensk, turned decisively against the Russians. Judging from the destroyed and abandoned armor, Ukrainian forces, which comprised local volunteers and the professional military, eliminated most of a Russian battalion tactical group on March 2 and 3.

There has been a vast and historic transformation in Europe, and especially in its largest nation, Germany, that will continue reverberating no matter what happens in Ukraine. Old policies have been cast aside as readily as last week's garbage.

'Full of Sh**!': Border Patrol Agents Blast Biden over Immigration Claims

 Joe Biden is in denial: Americans have lost faith in his leadership. But he shows no desire to win them back. “This is what happens when you order a President through the mail.”

Biden White House on the Verge of Making Disastrous Move with Kamala Harris, the White House wants to send her to Poland? Biden can’t go on this trip because he can’t do it. He’s too old, slow, and stupid. He might fall down the stairs for all to see. He could have a diarrhea of the mouth incident in front of the foreign press there, which could lead to missiles being launched. He already struggles with the softball questions from the White House press corps here. 

Trudeau's inexplicable use of the Emergencies Act must not be forgotten

Is Peggy Noonan Missing Donald Trump Yet?

Top female scientist canceled over 13-year-old ‘Michael Jackson’ Halloween costume. Highly decorated virologist Julie Overbaugh has been forced out of a position of leadership at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center and resigned her faculty affiliate position at the University of Washington School of Medicine due to accusations of racism and investigations involving her decision to wear a Michael Jackson costume to a Halloween party in 2009.

Social Media’s Front-Row Seat to Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine. Students discuss how seeing the violence and chaos caused by Putin’s aggression has changed their understanding of war.

Victor Davis Hanson lists Bidens efforts to make the US dependent on foreign oil. The Biden Administration stopped all gas and oil production in the ANWR region of Alaska. It ended all new federal leases for drilling. It is canceling major new pipelines. It is leveraging lending agencies not to finance oil and gas drilling.

Welcome Ukrainians. Whether or not Kamala Harris finds it amusing, she should seize the opportunity to find new Americans. Andy Grove was a refugee from a war zone.

Were you aware that the "Don't Say Gay" bill applied to grades K-3? Kids that age don't even know what sexuality is. The media certainly didn't tell you about the actual content when reporting how bad the law was.

The earmarks are back

The San Francisco school board election

 San Francisco Schools the Left. The landslide recall of three Board of Education members will have major national repercussions.

More here: the portent of things to come. The San Francisco earthquake.

KAMALA HARRIS EXPLAINS HOW SANCTIONS WILL DETER RUSSIA FROM AN INVASION THEY’VE ALREADY DECIDED ON: “Abso – we strongly believe – and remember also that the sanctions are a product not only of our perspective as the United States, but a shared perspective among our allies, and the allied relationship is such that we have agreed that the deterrence effect of these sanctions is still a meaningful one, especially because remember also, we still sincerely hope that there is a diplomatic path out of this moment. And within the context, then, of the fact that that window is still opening – open, although it is absolutely narrowing, but within the context of a diplomatic path still being open, the deterrence effect we believe has merit.”

Joe Rogan said he didn’t vote for Joe Biden in 2020 and that the former vice president is “basically a shell” cognitively and “can’t talk right anymore.” You guys don’t see that this guy can’t, he can’t talk right anymore?’ Go watch videos of him from twenty years ago. He was a dummy, he said a lot of silly shit, he lied about a bunch of things, but at least he was articulate.”

How Ukraine Was Betrayed in Budapest. Kyiv gave up its nuclear weapons in return for security assurances. So much for that. The most important was to “reaffirm their obligation to refrain from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of Ukraine.” They also pledged to “refrain from economic coercion” against Ukraine and to “seek immediate United Nations Security Council action to provide assistance to Ukraine” in the event of an “act of aggression” against the country. Ukraine had returned all of the nuclear weapons to Russia by 1996.

Eighteen-year-old free ski champion Eileen Gu gave China its first women’s gold medal of the 2022 Winter Olympics on Tuesday, becoming the breakout star of the least-watched Games in TV history. Why did a top American athlete who claims to be socially conscious, who benefited tremendously from growing up in the United States, choose to play for a brutal totalitarian government with one of the worst human rights records on the planet?

Biden’s war on fossil fuels has strengthened Putin and weakened America. And a list of the many great things Trump did. President Donald Trump opened 100 million acres of public land and water, including the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, to exploration. He withdrew from the Paris climate accord, approved the Keystone XL pipeline between the United States and Canada, and rolled back Obama-era regulations such as the Clean Power Plan that held back domestic exploration and production. Trump’s policy was “drill, baby drill.” The result? On his watch, the United States supplanted Russia and Saudi Arabia as the world’s largest oil producer.

Recent events have proven Biden wrong about yet another thing: Biden mocked gun-rights advocates who say they need assault weapons to fight the government: 'You need F-15s and maybe some nuclear weapons'

Slow Joe digs in against opening up US energy production to checkmate Russia.

This story needs to be told again and again. The New York Times Hasn’t Always Cared About Ukrainians. The Times is pushing this Russia-love narrative both to salvage some political gain from Biden’s catastrophic foreign policy and to cover for its own historic indifference to the Ukrainian people.

Who Is Responsible for the Death of Matthew Perna? For the first time in over a year, Joe Biden’s Justice Department has nothing to say about a January 6 defendant.
