The PCR test is widely used to confirm Covid-19 infections, but does it actually work? The writer quotes the Nobel laureate who invented the PCR test, Karry Mullis, to answer this question:

The writer is unwilling to say there is no Covid-19 virus (SARS-Cov-2), but notes that the usual science needed to prove the existence of the virus appears to be lacking.

The issue: So-called “vaccine passports” would violate the Constitution. Therefore, Stumble Joe and the Hag want to outsource them to the private sector.
The arrangement would be very much like the Big Tech censorship we have seen. Our government has no Constitutional authority to regulate free speech, but it can allow and enable private companies to do so.
Worse, there will be no shortage of people who believe vaccine passports are a great idea, just as there is no shortage of people who defend Big Tech censorship.
Biden’s Lie-Filled Press Conference
Stumble Joe’s press conference is old news. NYT’s fact check is more recent, and interesting for the questions it raises. One wonders, for example, how Biden supporters took it.
It must have been a shock to read in their favorite newspaper that they had replaced the old “liar in chief” (according to them) with a new “liar in chief.”
The meaning behind Kamala’s cackle
The origins of the word cackle in English apparently are obscure, according to my dictionary, but universally refer to the sound a hen makes after laying an egg. It is surprising there are enough examples of Cackling Kam to make a story of.
A counter to the WSJ piece posted a couple of days ago
Matthew Harwood from the Brennan Center takes an in depth look at some of the GOP “voting integrity” plans.
The title of his piece says it all. And it is not from some left-wing site, but The Reason, a LIBERTARIAN website and magazine. They don’t publish much that doesn’t tend toward libertarianism.
And this reminder of what our democratic republic should be about: “In a democratic nation, the vote ensures that we engage in politics, not war. It gives us a voice: one vote to cast as we please, plus the right to speak freely and convince others to also cast their ballots for particular candidates or causes. It gives us the ability to privilege the ballot box over the cartridge box when things get real. The winner today may not be the winner next election. The self-corrective process of elections allows for the peaceful transfer of power—a historical miracle that, after the Capitol riot, we might not want to take for granted” (My emphasis added)
No reasonable person . . .

Sidney Powell’s answer to the massive defamation suit brought by Dominion is that she is not liable because – wait for it – no reasonable person would believe the fantastic claims she was selling.
This is for you die hard Trump supporters. You know, those of you who did – with baited breath – take this woman’s crazy lies very seriously.

Who’da thunk it? When you expand intermittent sources of electrical supply, you need more wiring to connect all the generators to the distribution network. In effect, you need to redesign the whole system when you change the energy sources you use to produce electricity.
