A public record of some of my thoughts. Feel free to comment, but don't expect me to respond.
A court filing on Sunday is supposed to contain explosive new evidence of Hillary Clinton’s part in spying on Trump. Republicans vow to ‘get to the truth’ after Durham reports Democrat-linked spying on Trump.
That’s good news for Trump, but he has to be an ass about it.
“In a stronger period of time in our country,” he said, “this crime would have been punishable by death.”
What is the point of saying that?
Now the left can use Trump’s silly comment to distract from the real story.
The Superbowl halftime was stupid. I’d much rather watch an old-school punt, pass and kick contest.
I’m no expert on the Canadian trucker issue, but a few things seem fairly obvious to me.
First, the truckers have every right to protest. That’s one of our most sacred rights, and it must be protected, no matter what point of view the protesters are coming from.
But just as with Black Lives Matter, the right to protest ends at causing public mischief. It was wrong for BLM to riot, set fires and topple police cars, and it’s wrong for the truckers to block bridges.
I’m also very concerned about these efforts to block and/or redirect funds that people have sent to support the truckers. That sounds wrong in so many ways, and sounds like one more piece of evidence in the growing government / tech tyranny.
The other issue of concern is the complicity of the legacy media with the government agenda. When I was a kid, the media prided itself on being the skeptic — always suspicious of power, looking for evidence of corruption. Now, the legacy media has gone all-in with this government / tech / media / elite worldview, and has become its mouthpiece.
The good news is that trust in the media is very low. It should be lower, but it’s very low.
Today’s Daily Wire podcast mentions the boy crisis. Lifting Mask Mandates: Science or Politics? | 2.12.22. (After today you might have to scroll down to find it. The segment on boys is at the end, if you want to fast forward.)
While I have no doubt that various factors — affirmative efforts to get women into college; the feminization of just about everything, including school; telling boys they’re toxic, etc. — have pushed these numbers into their current, lopsided state, I have mixed feelings about trying to fix it.
Is the solution to try to get more boys to spend too much money on mostly useless college degrees? I don’t think so.
Education is a much bigger problem than simply the anti-boy bias, and it’s very likely that the correct solution is not to get more boys to go to college, but to try to get fewer people in college in the first place.
How many Covid-related things were conspiracy theories before they were mainstream, acceptable ideas? Let’s see …
There have also been reports of the vaccines interfering with women’s fertility. (Conspiracy!! Ban that lunatic!) But now …
