The 'white supremacy' canard explodes on the left
Jennifer Oliver O'Connell: The Kyle Rittenhouse trial was clearly not about race, and squarely about self-defense and our rights as citizens. Tragically, this did not stop the Left, through their mouthpieces in the legacy media, from trying to insert every racist trope, canard, and false flag into their narrative and commentary as the trial played out. Now that the trial is over, and Rittenhouse has been found Not Guilty on all counts, they are doing their utmost to keep the race train going so that their narrative is not totally destroyed. From the *Washington Examiner*: “The ... read more

Texas Permian Basin producing record amounts of oil
Reuters: Crude oil production from the Permian Basin, the largest U.S. oil field, is set to surpass its pre-pandemic record in December, a swift turnaround that has not been replicated in the country's other oil regions. Oil output from the Permian, located in Texas and New Mexico, is forecast to reach a record 4.953 million barrels per day (bpd) in December, as output has come back with the surge in economic demand. The Permian is the primary driver of U.S. output, but its percentage of U.S. overall production is even more than at the end of 2019, when the United States was pro... read more

Response to the chip shortage
*Dallas Morning News:* *Texas Instruments selects Sherman for potential $30 billion semiconductor chipmaking campus* *The site has the potential to house up to four semiconductor chip manufacturing plants.* I suspect other tech companies will be expanding chip-making facilities as the shortage is impacting not only automakers but other product manufacturing. We have gotten used to seeing slim inventories on auto dealers lots, but I noticed recently the farm tractor and other implement dealers with skinny inventories.

Well, my county has hit its highest COVID numbers since the whole thing started. Now, for us that's still under 200 with rare mortality, but it's still not encouraging.
