How Liars Wreck a Country

Last year, Forbes concluded that “only 16% of adults in the U.S. say they have a great deal or quite a lot of confidence in newspapers, and just 11% said the same for television news.” Anyone confronting these stats must conclude that our media are deeply incompetent or crooked or both.

The New York Times announced a few years ago that defeating Trump was the important thing. They gave themselves a free pass to lie all they want. How can they now reclaim their honor or their usefulness?

Real journalists, when they hear an assertion, immediately try to determine whether the assertion is true or false. This is also what scientists do. It’s honest, valuable work.

Unfortunately, our liberal journalists do not care about true or false. When they hear an assertion, they try to determine whether it will help their agenda…their narrative.

If it won’t help, they know they must attack the assertion, typically by declaring it debunked, fake news, or misinformation.

Super Bowl LVII, the National Anthem, Chris Stapleton: RESPECT

[This is title of Episode 86 on my podcast. It has outperformed all other episodes by a factor of 10 or much more. My thesis is that the public is not getting enough respect from its leaders. I think deep in his heart Biden is a fairly contemptuous person. He takes money from foreign countries and then he looks in the camera and says he and his son have never never ever ever ever discussed business. I was particularly struck by what Tara Reade claims he said after he had abused her. “I don’t care about you at all. You are nothing to me.”]

Ladies and gentlemen…

Most people agree that Chris Stapleton’s Star-Spangled Banner is best ever or close.

Most performers treat the Star-Spangled Banner as a big rousing number in a Broadway musical. They show off their skills. Everyone is impressed. But perhaps not touched.

Stapleton, his guitar, and his Tennessee-whiskey voice were alone in the Super Bowl arena. Millions cried.

Stapleton seemed humble, not concerned with flaunting his talents. Instead he paid tribute to the anthem itself, the history it represents, and the people who died to keep us going. That’s respect.

Few Americans know the story behind the song (apparently our schools don’t like history). During the War of 1812, a British fleet sailed up the Chesapeake Bay to bombard Fort McHenry, as a step toward burning Baltimore, as they had already torched Washington DC. First, they had to destroy the fort.

This woman has done the research and knows exactly what’s bedeviling America

Bruce Deitrick Price: The big problem for all of us is to grasp the entirety of your work. So my first question is, what is the broad concern that ties together all this research?

Linda Goudsmit: The most important thing is to realize that globalism is at war with the nation-state. I am talking about globalism as an ideology and political force that seeks to reorder the world from the existing system of independent nation-states into one single global nation-state ruled by themselves, of course. But globalism cannot succeed without collapsing the United States. So we face an alliance of convenience among the far-left progressives, Deweyites, socialists, Marxists, doctrinaire communists, totalitarians — all advancing their own anti-American agendas in common cause. If you oppose them, you are a threat who must be crushed.

BDP: Yes, that sounds right. So tell us how the aggressors operate….

Who Are the Real Haters?

When Governor Gavin Newsom disappeared for a few weeks after receiving a COVID shot, the public worried: was he alive? His wife did not like this curiosity. You might think citizens have a right to know where their leaders are. Nope. She viewed the nosy public as haters.

Mrs. Newsom posted: “When someone cancels something, maybe they’re just in the office working; maybe in their free time they’re at home with their family, at their kids’ sports matches, or dining out with their wife. Please stop hating and get a life.”

Hating? Who was hating?

Parent Describes K-12 Dystopia

On a regional Mensa forum, I posted analysis of problems in education. To my delight, an indignant parent left her assessment of how bad our schools have become. First-person reports from the trenches are the most reliable intelligence you can get about this murky and unintelligent demimonde:

“I read your article and couldn’t agree more. I have lived it with my twins for the last 13 years. I nearly cried when we moved from a NYC public school to a school district in an affluent part of NJ only to find out they had the same mind-numbing constructivist Math program (TERC, Everyday Math, etc.)….As someone who loved Math in school, I couldn’t believe how much I hated and was confused by their math homework. There were many tears and much throwing of pencils across the room….”

People not familiar with our K-12 situation will find this a quick way to catch up.

Scamdemic News

Too much lying, right from the beginning. Reminds me of Dr. Mann and his hockey stick.

Fauci et al drastically inflated the number of cases. Fauci et al put every death in the covid column that could possibly be put there. People stopped dying from heart attack, stroke, diabetes, and falling off a roof.

Every stupid mistake that could be made was made. Putting sick people in nursing homes. Putting ventilators in people when it would kill them. Most egregiously, prohibiting American citizens from trying remedies that have proved effective in many, many thousands of cases.

Furthermore, all the media, our little sicko media, coordinated a fear campaign so people were afraid to leave the house.

The big news today is that the scam seems to be falling apart, as this article reports.

The Government and CDC Are Lying About COVID-19 Vaccine and Ivermectin; The Question Is Why?
Wayne Allyn Root

==========================================================

PS: the giveaway for me, admittedly one of many, was that Fauci and his gang were so inappropriately ruthless when anything threatened their game. Remember the weird attacks on hydroxy. The media reported that Trump told people to inject bleach into their veins. That sort of nonsense went on for months as they tried to make people stay home and wait for a vaccine. The attack was picked up again when many doctors reported success with ivermectin. Dr. Zelenko explained the options in March of 2020. Everything he said made sense to me. Virtually nothing that Fauci said made sense. Fauci was like the election, the Biden candidacy, the vote count, the insurrection, the rush from Afghanistan, our lying media, and duplicitous Democrats generally. It’s shocking the number of people on this site who describe Fauci (and Biden) as decent and well-meaning.

Fauci’s Fear Factory

From the start, I had the sense that Fauci was a fraud and a gangster. So it’s good to see that Kevin Jackson, a real conservative, more or less agrees.

His newest post to The Black Sphere is titled Fire Fauci the Fraud.

The left has exploited the so-called epidemic every way possible. Most recently, Kamala Harris seems to be hiding her cackle behind a mask.

The coronavirus was actually Biden’s deus ex machina. Without it, he didn’t have a chance.

Nurse shares undercover video bombshell: NY hospitals didn’t isolate COVID-19 patients properly

https://www.bizpacreview.com/2020/06/13/nurse-shares-undercover-video-bombshell-ny-hospitals-didnt-isolate-covid-19-patients-934097/

Some people on this site accept Fauci’s numbers, even though there were stories in newspapers about inflated cases and how the hospitals got what were essentially bribes from the government to attribute deaths to covid. Respirators were a good way to kill people but certain hospitals kept using them.

Meanwhile, there were really stupid, vicious attacks on hydroxy cocktail and Dr. Zelenko. Thousands died because of this. It seems Zeleno is going to get a Nobel prize of some kind. He for me was the real saint and scholar in this whole saga. He explained in his videos that the Hippocratic Oath requires certain behaviors, which Dr. Fauci did not exhibit.

ADDENDUM. I saw the story about the nurse on the Internet by accident. Two days later when I tried to Google it, it was gone. I always loved Google but not now. I decided to test duckduckgo.com. Much to my surprise, a full page of relevant links came up. So Google was playing games. They’ll give up their rep to save Fauci and Biden. Wrong choice.
