Justin Trudeau continues to punish the fully vaccinated

Justin Trudeau's lies aren't just beginning to unravel. They have become outright ridiculous. That is why Justin Trudeau hate is sweeping the country. Justin Trudeau is trying to blame the unvaccinated for the new restrictions yet we all know they aren't being punished by the new restrictions, the vaccinated are. Since the introduction of vaccine passports, the unvaccinated were not allowed to go to the gym. So why then did they close the gyms for all the vaccinated members? Especially when Omicron is 80% weaker than Covid and is less severe than the seasonal flu. We can't blame th... read more

New Year's Resolution: Eliminate "Rigor" from Education Lexicon

If there is a single word that comes close to capturing the zeitgeist of corporate education austerity policies that have metastasized since the Reagan era (among both Democrats and Republicans), it would be a five-letter signifier that has done more damage to effective and humane schooling than any one word in the English language: "rigor." If you can believe the education efficiency zealots of the last two generations, the answer to most questions about schooling have the same answer: more "rigor." Whether we're talking about curriculum, teacher quality, teacher education, lead... read more

California's goofy legislature wants to double taxes to pay for universal healthcare

PJ Media: ... There’s a constitutional amendment in front of the state legislature that would raise taxes astonishingly higher to fund the first single-payer healthcare system in the U.S. Jared Walczak of the Tax Foundation broke down what the taxes would entail: The new taxes would take three forms: 1.

A graduated-rate payroll tax system with the top rate kicking in for employees with more than $49,990 in annual income; and 3. A gross receipts tax of 2.3 percent, excluding the first $2 ... read more

The Pelosi psychodrama

Clarice Feldman: ... Not far from the hallowed halls of the Supreme Court, Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her pals are trying yet again to make more of the January 6 riot than facts would warrant. She persuaded the cast of *Hamilton* to sing about democracy, inspiring the *Wall Street Journal*’s James Freemen to dub this “Capitol Riot: The Musical!” Readers probably don’t recall a 2002 congressional effort to mark the first anniversary of 9/11 with a catchy musical number from a Broadway smash hit. And perhaps that says it all about the Democrats’ Thursday production to mark one year... read more

Iran's threat against Trump officials

Washington Examiner: Iran’s imposition of “sanctions” on dozens of Americans amounts to an assassination threat against members of former President Donald Trump’s administration, according to a senior U.S. official who threatened “severe consequences” for any harm done to them. “Make no mistake: the United States of America will protect and defend its citizens,” White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan said Sunday. “This includes those serving the United States now and those who formerly served.” Iranian officials have made explicit their interest in killing one of th... read more
