News from CNN

The building collapse in Florida dominated the weekend news.

While rescue workers have difficult and sometimes dangerous tasks, there are only so many times I can watch the same film clip of men with buckets climbing a pile of rubble. There is much time wasted saying nothing, soothing nobody, and allowing no insight.

In the channel flipping mode, CNN and MSNBC were part of the cycle. Noticed that for nearly every political issue discussed, there were included prerequisite statements that President Trump is a liar and the election results were beyond reproach.

The repeated diatribes made the bucket carrying loop more palatable.

President Biden won the election, but suggesting that there was no cheating flies in the face of logic. Will guilt ever be proven, no. Here in Georgia, the official word is that it no illegality was identified, but there is little doubt that the acts that Stacy Abrams and her sister were unethical.

Extremely unethical.

Charity Argument

Once in a while we just have to stand back in awe of our government.
The Food Stamp Program, administered by the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture, is proud to be distributing the greatest amount of free meals and food stamps ever - to 46 million people.

Meanwhile, the National Park Service, administered by the U.S. Dept. of the Interior, asks us to "Please Do Not Feed the Animals."  Their stated reason for the policy is because "the animals will grow dependent on handouts and will not learn to take care of themselves."

Thus ends today's lesson in irony.

Word of the Day

Always trying to increase my word comprehension, am signed up for an emailed "Word of the Day". Today's word was one I already knew, even if I would have pronounced and spelled it incorrectly.

Seeing this immediately brought to mind President Biden's meeting with Putin. 

During the Presidential campaign many concluded that candidate Biden was cognitively diminished. I believe that many Democrats understood that Biden was a shell that would be easily controlled by the bureaucracy. A bureaucracy that would resume the course that President Trump tried, and failed, to detour.  We saw four years of the State Department resisting Trump policies, now we are back in the channel of unelected liberals running foreign policy. 

I for one and sick of the rigmarole.

CNN Sucks

 We know it, we knew it and CNN is proud of it.

Project Veritas got CNN Technical Director Charlie Chester on video bragging about it.

CNN Director ADMITS Network Engaged in ‘Propaganda’.

Hiding the truth of CNN's shaping of public perception, is deliberately dishonest.

Why do the leaders at CNN feel they have to lead their audience with deception?

Is it to sell advertisement?

Is it because they have hidden political affiliations?

I think both.

Follow the link and listen through, Chester admits that fear sells, and that climate change is the next topic.  

  

Disagreement with Election Results Grounds for Refusal of Bail

Apparently having been home schooled is also for the government's restriction of rights, not to mention a verbal tongue lashing. Bruno Cua was held in an Oklahoma prison for over a month, when there is no evidence of him having committed a violent act. He was released only when he contracted COVID, in prison.

If you are a BLM member, arrested for setting fire to a federal building, you get bail, and the Vice President helps bail you out. 

The second amendment, to my understanding, was written to allow the citizens the means of protecting themselves from other people and the encroachment of government on natural rights. The government sees self-defense and expression of displeasure with the government as unlawful. Federal authorities are willing to bring the weight of bureaucracy to bear against the weak singular citizens to enforce their corrupt notion of right and wrong. 

Berating, and using as a reason for imprisonment, the defendant's home schooling, proves that these Federal employees do not give a damn about people. That was wrong.

RINOs Whine

 Donors can spend their money on whomever they choose. I will give no money to the RNC and will direct donate to the candidates of my choice. Not a week passes that I do not receive a phone call, letter or both asking me to write a check. I make a point of using the return postage paid envelope to return the mail back with explicit comments. Sending money to the RNC is not unlike paying NEA union dues, it does not matter what you as the donor want, the organizations are only interested in using your money toward their ends.

Science Is The Belief In The Ignorance Of The Experts

For the past decade we have been hearing statements like "the science is over".

The statement, free of emotion, speaking in terms of science, is exactly wrong.

Science is never over.

Today, by way of Prager U, I viewed a video of Physicist Brian Keating, who shared the statement of 

Science Is The Belief In The Ignorance Of The Experts

Richard Feynman

When you hear the term "consensus science", hide your wallet.

Think Little

Think Little is brief book, a collection of essays if you will, in which Wendell Berry describes the country paradise of his Kentucky homeland.

Published in 1969, the collection uniformly professes a love for the country and a disdain for progress.

While I disagree with most of the conclusions, conclusions based a willful ignorance of reality, the writing is beautiful, the thoughts deep and haunting.

The writing reminds me of the Robert Roark books I read long ago, filled with a love for countryside land and the men who lived carefully within it.

I have a neighbor who was a student of this author at the University of Kentucky.

Fighting for Free Speech

 I loved the National Lampoon magazine, and was so upset when it winnowed away. The monthly included indelible cartoons, articles and graphics. P.J. O'Rourke was an editor for that magazine

P.J. O'Rourke has written books that I have also enjoyed.

Until now I had never connected to two, if not for this linked Just the News clip that describes a legal fight for for free speech against modern media censors. 

Lester Holt Wins the Murrow Lifetime Achievement Award

In 2016 Lester Holt moderated a Presidential debate between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.

For this debate it was learned that Holt and Donna Bazile conspired to feed Hillary Clinton questions before the televised debate.

They cheated, and Clinton lost the debate anyway.

Their punishment, Holt gets an award and Brazile gets a network job.

An example of his objective news worthy opinion, as shared on Breitbart.

Holt anchors NBC Nightly News, and recently made headlines after a cartoon character representing him made a November 2020 appearance on Stephen Colbert’s “Our Cartoon President,” in which he asserted “you’d have to be a ‘f*king idiot’ to vote for President Donald Trump.”

During Holt's acceptance speech,  he made the statement...

"Fairness is overrated."

I've always though this cheating bastard deserved the Davis Cup, for being asshole of the week, He can wear the toilet seat for a crown for all I care.

The circle jerk is left handed.
