[FrontPage] In some parallel universe, David Horowitz never left the left. Instead he closed his eyes to the cracks in the Marxist ideal, zipped up his lip about the high crimes of his comrades, and, like them, reaped the rewards of his blind loyalty. He continued to write books that were lauded in the mainstream media; he was profiled glowingly in the New York Times Magazine and got the cover of Time; he won Pulitzer Prizes and National Book Awards; he was offered huge sums to teach at Harvard, Yale, and other top universities, all of which awarded him honorary degrees. In that alternate world, in short, Horowitz, along with the likes of Angela Davis, is today regarded in the corridors of academic, political, and cultural power as an ornament of American civilization.

I know a trans vendor whose cry is
So sad that I buy his papayas:
"For what more could one wish
Than this womanish dish?"
Though he sings it too low,
Blue and mournful and slow,
Like he don't even know where the sky is.

[Page Six] Jennifer Aniston is getting ripped for celebrating a Christmas ornament that casually marks "our first pandemic 2020."
The 51-year-old former "Friends" star posted the image of the engraved circular wooden ornament on her Instagram stories on Christmas Day — quickly getting roasted for being "out of touch."
"’Cheers to our first pandemic of 2020, where millions of people died! Let’s celebrate that on a Christmas ornament!’" she wrote sarcastically of the message she felt the actress was sending.
Another fan asked why she was "talking about ’our first pandemic’ like it’s a baby shower."
"All celebrities have done during this pandemic is show how out of touch and just f—ing oblivious they are to anything that doesn’t have to do with them," another person complained as they shared screenshots of the photo.
Other fans, however, accused the critics of missing the point, saying the actress was merely marking a momentous year in history.

Off the pile re some relevant recent bloid...
"There's somethin' about 'em," sez Dante,
"That just seems to shout out 'Avanti!'
A flaunty bacchante...
A jaunty Ashanti...
Yo' auntie at Conti and Tonti."
[IsraelTimes] Russia says its coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague) ...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men... corpse count is more than three times higher than it had previously reported, making it the country with the third-largest number of fatalities.
For months, President Vladimir Putin ...President-for-Life of Russia. He gets along well with other presidents for life. He is credited with bringing political stability and re-establishing something like the rule of law, which occasionally results in somebody dropping dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substance. Under Putin, a new group of business magnates controlling significant swathes of Russia's economy has emerged, all of whom have close personal ties to him. The old bunch, without close personal ties to Putin, are in jail or in exile or dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substances... has boasted about Russia’s low fatality rate from the virus, saying earlier this month that it had done a "better" job at managing the pandemic than Western countries.
But since early in the pandemic, some Russian experts have said the government was playing down the country’s outbreak.
On Monday, Russian officials admit that is true.
The Rosstat statistics agency says that the number of deaths from all causes recorded between January and November had risen by 229,700 compared to the previous year.
"More than 81 percent of this increase in mortality over this period is due to Covid," says Deputy Prime Minister Tatiana Golikova, meaning that over 186,000 Russians have died from COVID-19.
[RT] Eight nursing home workers in Stralsund received five times the normal dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague) ...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men... vaccine, sending half of them to the hospital with Covid-19 symptoms — but the company insists the megadose is safe.
A group of care home employees in the northeastern town of Stralsund was accidentally dosed with five times the prescribed amount of Pfizer-BioNTech’s newly approved Covid-19 vaccine on Sunday — the first day Germany began vaccinating healthcare workers and nursing home residents against the virus.
Eight employees received five times the 30-microgram (mcg) dose of the jab, which was recently christened Comirnaty. Four of those were hospitalized as a "precautionary measure" after experiencing flu-like (and Covid-19-like) symptoms, Vorpommern-Rugen district administrator Stefan Kerth revealed on Monday.
While the prescribed dose for Comirnaty is just 30mcg, a spokeswoman for BioNTech insisted researchers had experimented with "increased dosages" during clinical trials and found doses of as much as 100mcg were tolerated without "serious consequences." However, Caliphornia hasn't yet slid into the ocean, no matter how hard it's tried... five times the normal dose would be 150mcg, half again as much as a 100mcg overdose, and it’s not clear if any of the clinical trials had tested such high doses.
The overdosed group consisted of seven women and one man, all aged between 38 and 54. The vaccine is being administered to elderly nursing home residents and employees at such facilities first, with a rollout for the general population to begin next year.
The arrival of pharmaceutical salvation has already encountered obstacles, however, with some districts rejecting their vaccine shipments on the suspicion they had not been kept at the ultra-cold temperature of -70 degrees Celsius required to retain safety and effectiveness.
Seven districts in Bavaria opted to return 1,000 shots after the ’cold’ boxes in which they arrived registered internal temperatures up to 15 degrees Celsius, dismissing BioNTech’s claim that the comparatively lukewarm vaccine shipment was "probably okay."

Looks like the most prominent China plague symptoms are caused by the immune system's reaction to the spike protein, not the damage caused by the virus.
[AlAhram] The federal appeals court in Manhattan on Monday blocked New York state restrictions on the size of religious gatherings put in place to combat the spread of the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague) ...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men... n a 3-0 decision, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals sided with the Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn, the Orthodox Jewish group Agudath Israel of America and two synagogues in enjoining New York Governor Andrew Sonny Cuomo’s Oct. 6 attendance caps at "houses of worship."
The governor limited attendance to the lesser of 10 people or 25% capacity in "red" zones where the coronavirus risk was highest, and 25 people or 33% capacity in slightly less risky "orange" zones, even in buildings that seat hundreds.
Circuit Judge Michael Park said the plaintiffs established irreparable harm by showing the restrictions impaired their free exercise of religion.
He also said "no public interest is served by maintaining an unconstitutional policy when constitutional alternatives are available to achieve the same goal."
Cuomo’s office did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Monday’s decision followed the U.S. Supreme Court’s 5-4 ruling on Nov. 25 against enforcing the caps.
The majority, comprising most of the court’s conservative wing, said the restrictions "strike at the very heart of the First Amendment’s guarantee of religious liberty," and that "even in a pandemic, the Constitution cannot be put away and forgotten."
Cuomo has said that ruling had no practical effect because some restrictions were lifted as COVID-19 flare-ups eased.
The appeals court returned Agudath Israel’s case to a Brooklyn federal judge to decide, under a "strict scrutiny" standard, whether the 25% and 33% limits were constitutional.
Avi Schick, a lawyer for Agudath Israel, said Monday’s decision "will be felt way beyond the COVID context. It is a clear statement ... that government can’t disfavor religious conduct merely because it sees no value in religious practice."
Randy Mastro, the diocese’s lawyer, said the diocese was "gratified," and will welcome parishioners to mass "under strict protocols" that keep them safe.
[AlAhram] Sudan is to send troop reinforcements to the south of its Darfur region after 15 people were killed in tribal festivities, the official news agency SUNA said.
The governor of South Darfur state, Musa Mahdi, announced "the deployment of a large number of military forces in order to arrest those involved in the festivities and to collect the arms", it reported Sunday.
"The era of reconciliation conferences is over and the era of implementing the law has started," Mahdi said, referring to talks in recent months, as quoted by SUNA.

[Tennessee Star] White’s Ferry has been carrying goods and passengers across the Potomac River for over 200 years, but on Monday the operators announced that they have stopped their operations after the Loudoun County Circuit Court ruled that the ferry business does not have right to use the river landing on the Virginia side of the river. 200 years should constitute adverse possession.
In a press release, White’s Ferry announced, "The Circuit Court of Loudoun County, Virginia has ruled, in the case of Rockland Farm, LLC, et al. v. White’s Ferry, Inc., that no public landing exists on the Virginia shoreline at White’s Ferry Road and the ferry is prohibited from landing at that location in Virginia. As of the date of this press release Loudoun County, Virginia has declined to establish a public landing at that location."
White’s Ferry said a store operating on its own property would remain open.
The White’s Ferry announcement surprised many across the region. Loudoun County Supervisor Caleb Kershner said, "I am extremely disappointed in the shutdown of White’s Ferry as a result of the court decision in Rockland Farm, LLC, et al. v. White’s Ferry, Inc, which found that White’s Ferry is trespassing on Rockland Farm’s property."
Kershner said the ferry was a vital regional transportation link that saw over 600 cars a day between Montgomery County, Maryland, and Loudoun County, Virginia. He also called for a bridge to be built to service the area. "This historic landmark has been home to a ferry service since 1786 and should continue to serve Virginia and Maryland citizens," he said in a press release.
Loudoun County Public Affairs Officer Glen Barbour said the problems of the ferry and a potential bridge have a complicated history. "The issue of a second bridge over the Potomac River is a complete separate issue that Loudoun’s leaders have been discussing for many years. In 2017, the Board of Supervisors. The County expressed support for investigating the possibilities," Barbour said. "Construction of a bridge is a complex issue that would require cooperation between Maryland and Virginia as well as any impacted property owners."

I traveled this several times. Regressive progressives at work here. I forget the cost. It wasn't much at the time I traveled it. Green Spring toll wooden bridge crossing another and it cost 50 cents when I used it. Still in use. Only closes when Potomac is high water levels.

Why, when the county and Rockland "Farms" can work together - Rockland can sell the property to the county at nephew prices, and have front row to the sweet, sweet federally funded tran-state line bridge which the county can dip its beak into.
Put a toll on it, call it the William J. Le Petomane Crossing, that's Big Time Baby.
[Washington Examiner] Gov. Kristi Noem said South Dakota has "perhaps the strongest economy in the country" after refusing to implement lockdowns that have economically throttled other states.
"South Dakota experienced a truly incredible year. Despite the pandemic forcing businesses to adjust, we have perhaps the strongest economy in the country. Our unemployment rate is back down to 3.5%. We ended the 2020 fiscal year with a budget surplus," Noem tweeted Monday morning.
"SD businesses cut the fewest hours and the fewest wages of any state in America. They had the lowest decrease in demand for their products and services. South Dakota’s economy took a hit when COVID came, just like every state, but we’ve come roaring back stronger than ever."
South Americans and Puerto Ricans in Florida. Mexicans all along the Rio Grande. East Europeans everywhere. Mexicans all over Chicago and LA. Vietnamese and Nigerians in Houston. Asians of all sorts in Orange County. Every single immigrant group in New York City!
Plus normies in South Dakota and every other place that isn't dominated by Woke idiocy.
I think we're getting close to diagnosing the problem. It has fuck all to do with race or immigration or diversity. It's just two groups: cringing over-educated self-flagellating Woke white assholes and their Wakandan accuser-extortionists.

[The White House] Today is the 850th anniversary of the martyrdom of Saint Thomas Becket on December 29, 1170. Thomas Becket was a statesman, a scholar, a chancellor, a priest, an archbishop, and a lion of religious liberty.
Before the Magna Carta was drafted, before the right to free exercise of religion was enshrined as America’s first freedom in our glorious Constitution, Thomas gave his life so that, as he said, "the Church will attain liberty and peace."
The son of a London sheriff and once described as "a low‑born clerk" by the King who had him killed, Thomas Becket rose to become the leader of the church in England. When the crown attempted to encroach upon the affairs of the house of God through the Constitutions of Clarendon, Thomas refused to sign the offending document. When the furious King Henry II threatened to hold him in contempt of royal authority and questioned why this "poor and humble" priest would dare defy him, Archbishop Becket responded "God is the supreme ruler, above Kings" and "we ought to obey God rather than men."
Because Thomas would not assent to rendering the church subservient to the state, he was forced to forfeit all his property and flee his own country. Years later, after the intervention of the Pope, Becket was allowed to return — and continued to resist the King’s oppressive interferences into the life of the church. Finally, the King had enough of Thomas Becket’s stalwart defense of religious faith and reportedly exclaimed in consternation: "Will no one rid me of this meddlesome priest?"
[Breitbart] The Greeks who represent the last vestiges of Christian Byzantium and the Roman Empire are heading towards their final extinction in His Enormity, Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First ...Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey. In Anatolia did Recep Bey a stately Presidential Palace decree, that has 1100 rooms. That's 968 more than in the White House, 400 more than in Versailles, and 325 more than Buckingham Palace, so you know who's really more important... ’s The Sick Man of Europe Turkey ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire... , with their numbers dwindling to a mere handful under his Islamist government.
What is now Turkey only began to be colonised in by the Turkic peoples in earnest from around 1071, after their Seljuk ancestors had arrived from Central Asia and vanquished the Greek-speaking Christian ruler Romanos IV Diogenes’s forces at the Battle of Manzikert.
The last vestiges of the Byzantine state where finally snuffed out with the brutal conquest of Constantinople, widely regarded as the greatest Christian city in the world, in 1453, or arguably with the fall of the citadel of Salmeniko Castle in modern-day Greece in 1461, following a brave but doomed resistance by its commander, Konstantinos Graitzas Palaiologos.
Despite widespread massacres and enslavement during the Ottoman Turkish conquests, however, the region’s Greeks survived and were allowed something of a cultural life, albeit as second-class citizens, for centuries — not least because they served as cash cows for their Moslem rulers through the imposition of the jizya tax.
But Greeks in Istanbul, as Constantinople is now called, have now tumbled from 200,000 as recently as 1914 to, officially, a mere 3,000 — and a Times correspondent who visited the city to interview some of the survivors, known as the Rum, reports that the true figure may be nearer to just one thousand.
The Times correspondents’ interview subjects did not describe a life as hard as that endured by some of their forebears, such as in 1821, when many of the city’s Greeks were massacred and the Patriarch of Constantinople hanged from the gate of his cathedral, or in 1955, when the security services organised violent mostly peaceful pogroms against them in what POLITICO dubbed a "Ottoman Turkish Kristallnacht".
"Everyone is gone now," said Lazari Kozmaoglu, the 75-year-old owner of a rare pork butcher’s shop.
"When I was young, I used to get worn out saying hello to everyone I walked past on the street. Now it’s so lonely," he said, recalling that the neighbourhood was home to some 5,000 Greeks in his use — reduced to just seven now.
Mr Kozmaoglu has now passed away himself, leaving his sons to carry the torch.
Neither the interviewees, perhaps understandably, or their interviewer, perhaps less understandably, touched to any great extent on the reasons so many Greeks have fled their ancestral homeland in recent years — and, indeed, decades — but the mood against such minorities in the once strongly secular but now Islamist-led republic is souring.
The authorities have made it increasingly difficult for Orthodox Christians to receive a religious education for example, and some historic churches and monasteries have been demolished or repurposed as mosques, sometimes with little warning.
The most (in)famous casualty was the former Church of the Holy Wisdom, or Hagia Sophia, forcibly converted into a mosque after the Ottoman Turkish conquest but turned into a secular museum after the fall of the Ottoman dynasty in the early 20th century, with much of its priceless Christian artwork uncovered.
Ottoman Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan has now turned it into a mosque once again, dismaying Christians the world over.

[GoodNewsNetwork] Just a few doses of an experimental drug that reboots protein production in cells can reverse age-related declines in memory and mental flexibility in mice, according to a new study by UC San Francisco scientists.
The drug, called ISRIB, has already been shown in laboratory studies to restore memory function months after traumatic brain injury (TBI), reverse cognitive impairments in Down Syndrome, prevent noise-related hearing loss, fight certain types of prostate cancer, and even enhance cognition in healthy animals.
In the new study, published Dec. 1 in the open-access journal eLife, researchers showed rapid restoration of youthful cognitive abilities in aged mice, accompanied by a rejuvenation of brain and immune cells that could help explain improvements in brain function—and with no side effects observed.
“ISRIB’s extremely rapid effects show for the first time that a significant component of age-related cognitive losses may be caused by a kind of reversible physiological “blockage” rather than more permanent degradation,” said Susanna Rosi, PhD, Lewis and Ruth Cozen Chair II and professor in the departments of Neurological Surgery and of Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Science.
“The data suggest that the aged brain has not permanently lost essential cognitive capacities, as was commonly assumed, but rather that these cognitive resources are still there but have been somehow blocked, trapped by a vicious cycle of cellular stress,” added Peter Walter, PhD, a professor in the UCSF Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics and a Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator. “Our work with ISRIB demonstrates a way to break that cycle and restore cognitive abilities that had become walled off over time.”

[CNS News] In his latest report on federal government waste, a project he completes every year, Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) highlights $54.7 billion in government spending that he deems wasteful. Among the items noted this year is the creation of a $6.9 million "smart toilet," which operates with three cameras, one of which can identify a user's "analprint."
As explained in The Festivus Report 2020, researchers at Stanford University used $6,973,057 in funds granted through the National Cancer Institute, which is part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to create a so-called "smart toilet."
The purpose of the toilet is to develop “easily deployable hardware and software for the long-term analysis of a user’s excreta through data collection and models of human health," state the researchers in an abstract.
"Each user of the toilet is identified through their fingerprint and the distinctive features of their anoderm [anus], and the data are securely stored and analysed in an encrypted cloud server," state the researchers.
"The toilet operates with artificial intelligence, includes three cameras (including one video camera), and features a urinalysis strip," according to the Festivus Report. "The toilet’s AI collects the health data and then stores it in a digital cloud system."

[IsraelTimes] An unidentified group of US-based philanthropists plans to send 150,000 doses of the Pfizer vaccine to Iran ...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate JewsZionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol... in the coming weeks, Iranian media reports, in a step that could bring the hardest-hit country in the Middle East closer to inoculating its citizens against the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague) ...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men... Details remain scarce in the report by semiofficial Tasnim news agency. It quotes the chief of the country’s Red Islamic Thingy Society as saying he expects the vaccine created by American drug maker Pfizer and its German partner BioNTech to be imported by January 19 "based on coordination with a group of benefactors in the US." That book and Netflix deal came in handy, Baracky?
Iran has struggreat. Now the Ayatollahs and IRGC wwill be OKgled to stem the worst virus outbreak in the Middle East, which has infected over 1.2 million people and killed nearly 55,000.
Karim Hemmati, the Red Islamic Thingy director, says his organization plans to receive an additional 1 million vaccine doses, which on Sunday the semiofficial Khabaronline.it news website reported would come from China. The vaccines will be offered to citizens free of charge, Hemmati says.
Officials have said previously that importing the Pfizer vaccine, which must be shipped and stored at minus 70 degrees Celsius (minus 94 degrees Fahrenheit), poses major logistical challenges for Iran.
Iran has signed up for COVAX, an international program designed to distribute coronavirus vaccines to participating countries regardless of their wealth. It’s run in part by Gavi, The Vaccine Alliance. which says the US Treasury’s Office of Foreign Asset Control has already issued a license for Iran to take part. The US Treasury has not reacted to Iran’s participation.

[AlAhram] The Justice Department said it was appealing Nichols' order to the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia
The U.S. government on Monday appealed a Dec. 7 order by a U.S. judge that blocked the U.S. Commerce Department from imposing restrictions on Chinese-owned short video-sharing app TikTok that would have effectively barred its use in the United States.
U.S. District Judge Carl Nichols in Washington issued an order after U.S. Judge Wendy Beetlestone in Pennsylvania in October blocked the same restrictions that had been set to take effect on Nov. 12. The Justice Department said it was appealing Nichols' order to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia.
This is what institutional racism looks like. The university wants to increase the odds that students “of colour” die.
[Western Journal] Cornell students are required to get a flu vaccination before arriving on campus as part of the Cornell Student Behavioral Compact in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Or, to put it more accurately, white students are required to get a flu vaccination.
Most white students, anyway. If you’re Caucasian, you must obtain a medical or religious exemption in order to opt out.
Meanwhile, all "Black," "Indigenous" and other students of color are allowed to cite their racial identity — or a medical or religious reason — as a cause for exemption from the Ivy League school’s requirement.
"Students who identify as Black, Indigenous, or as a Person of Color (BIPOC) may have personal concerns about fulfilling the Compact requirements based on historical injustices and current events," Cornell’s website reads.

Bye Plessy, See ya Ferguson don't let the door hit ya on the way out, separate but equal is making a come back after 66 years. The doctrine of "separate but equal" supported the idea of races being separate, so long as they received "equal" facilities and treatment to that which the whites had or received. For example, separate but equal dictated that blacks and whites use separate water fountains, schools, and even medical care.
