Biden administration takes diversity to weird extremesStreif: Since we are constantly told that 81 million morons of our fellow citizens elected Joe Biden as president, with only a little help from corrupt voting officials in a handful of states, it is only fair that everyone gets a chance to see what this means in real life. As you know, personnel is policy, and that being the case, we are sort of at a loss for explaining how this hire makes our policy on managing spent nuclear fuel seem even vaguely sane. A recent, high-level hire at the Department of Energy’s Office of Nuclear Energy is a drag queen, LGBTQ+ activist who has “lec... read more

Where are All the Migrant Children Coming Across the Border Going?
After months of delay, the Department of Homeland Security replied late last month to a Congressional demand for information about the number of illegal migrants the department has flown from border towns to communities around the country. In 2021, it said, 71,617 were dropped off in nearly 20 cities including locales as far from the Mexican border as Atlanta, Chicago, New York and Philadelphia. Immigration experts critical of the Biden administration’s permissive immigration policies believe those numbers are incomplete, especially regarding the most vulnerable migrants, those un... read more

Canadian Government is Getting Desperate as Ontario Premier Doug Ford Declares State of Emergency over Trucker Blockades
Major border entries from Canada to the U.S. remain closed today, Friday, February 11th, as the Canadian Government appears to be reaching a point of desperation in their efforts to shut down the Canadian Trucker Freedom Convoy, as today Ontario Premier Doug Ford declared a state of emergency in Ontario, with yet more threats made against the protesters who seem to have become immune to the government's scare tactics.

IS A SMART ANALYSIS OF DEMOCRATS' PROBLEMS BECOMING AN EXCUSE TO DO NOTHING?*The Washington Post*'s Greg Sargent is frustrated by Republicans' ability to transmit their messages -- including utter claptrap -- at will: One big advantage Republicans have right now is their massive network of right-wing media spinners.

Eric Adams’ Black On Black CrimeThe term “black on black crime” is a particularly pernicious trope. It is a ruse used to absolve the systemic racism which kills Black people in a plethora of ways. It invalidates Black people’s suffering and gives license to law enforcement and its many acts of brutality. Ironically, it also describes what is happening among a group of Black officials in New York City. The new mayor and his police commissioner committed a brazen political mugging of the Manhattan District Attorney.

Rather Than Sink Main Street, The Fed Could Save ItNot only will raising interest rates not fix the supply crisis, but according to Alasdair Macleod, head of research at GoldMoney in London, U.K., that wrong medicine is likely to trigger the next financial crisis. He thinks it is imminent and will start in Europe, where negative interest rates brought the cost of doing repo trades to zero. As a result, the European repo market is now over €10 trillion ($11.4 trillion), far more than the capital available to unwind it (to reverse or close the trades). Rising interest rates will trigger that unwinding, says MacLeod, and the ECB lack... read more
