Speaker Nicholas Wade argues in his book A_Troublesome_Inheritance that 'racial differences in economic success between whites, blacks, and East Asians, may result from genetic differences amplified by culture.'
[Just The News] New York Times reporter's flippant dismissal of the increasingly popular "lab-leak" COVID-19 origin theory offers a revealing glimpse into the newspaper's pandemic news priorities 18 months into the health crisis that has pervaded world media coverage since early last year.
Apoorva Mandavilli, a longtime science reporter who has been a full-time writer at the Times since May of last year, suggested on Wednesday that growing suspicions that COVID-19 originated in a Chinese virology lab are both misguided and bigoted.
"Someday we will stop talking about the lab leak theory and maybe even admit its racist roots," she wrote on Twitter. "But alas, that day is not yet here."
Mandavilli subsequently deleted that tweet. In a followup post she did not retract her earlier claim about the theory's "racist roots" but rather said that it had been "badly phrased."
"The origin of the pandemic is an important line of reporting that my colleagues are covering aggressively," she wrote.
By Thursday evening Mandavilli's Twitter account appeared to be no longer active. She did not respond to inquiries seeking more information about her opinions on the theory and the reason for her account's disappearance.
Yet her suggestion that the lab-leak theory is both "racist" and unworthy of the discussion it has provoked may shed light on the pandemic coverage priorities of one of the world's most influential papers.
Angier began her college studies at age 16 at the University of Michigan. After completing two years at the University of Michigan, she studied English, physics, and astronomy at Barnard College, where she graduated magna cum laude in 1978. She also studied medieval literature post graduation.
But we all know that a who studied physics and graduated in 1978 must be a privileged and fragile 'Karen,' so screw her.
[Washington Examiner] President Joe Biden’s decision to "redouble" intelligence efforts to trace the origin of the coronavirus pandemic could intensify international distrust of Beijing and hurt the Chinese Communist regime's bid to isolate Taiwan.
With more evidence pointing to the possibility the virus responsible for over 2 million deaths worldwide may have escaped a Wuhan lab, international focus has centered on China's actions and lack of cooperation over the last year.
[Flag & Cross] For decades upon decades, Florida has been in the electoral hot seat here in the United States, as one of the few locales that is truly and consistently up for grabs during presidential contests.
The reason is an easily conceivable one: The state’s southern backbone is offset by its predictable snowboard influxes, causing the political whim of Florida to move with even so much as a stiff breeze.
Well, at least that used to be the case. Governor Ron DeSantis is touting new data that appears to suggest that Florida is going red for good.
BABYLON, FL—The Babylon Bee would like to take this opportunity to apologize to Xi Jinping for a very, very bad mistake we made earlier. We continued to refer to him as "president" in our articles, when we really should have called him Winnie the Pooh, as he self-identifies as a honey-loving stuffed bear who lives in the Hundred Acre Wood.
Here is our apology, Mr. Pooh:
亲爱的习近平领导人，对于您称呼您为"总统"，我们深感抱歉。 我们知道您确定是吃蜂蜜且非常胖的黄熊。 我们犯了一个非常非常非常严重的错误，我们非常非常爱您和中国政府。 用不与之相称的代词来误认一个人是非常糟糕的。 您是小熊维尼，我们希望尊重这一身份。 因此，从现在开始，我们将永远只称您为小熊维尼（Winnie the Pooh），这是一只可爱的毛绒熊，与克里斯托弗·罗宾（Christopher Robin）一起玩，非常笨。 非常感谢，请不要将我们送到监狱营地。
Thank you very much for your understanding, and may this lead to greater cooperation between our inferior country and your much superior land of the Hundred Acre Wood.

Translates as:
Dear leader Xi Jinping, we are deeply sorry for calling you "President". We know that you are definitely a yellow bear who eats honey and is very fat. We made a very, very serious mistake, and we love you and the Chinese government very very very much. It is very bad to misidentify a person with pronouns that are not appropriate. You are Winnie the Pooh, and we want to respect this identity. Therefore, from now on, we will always only call you Winnie the Pooh, this is a cute plush bear, playing with Christopher Robin, very stupid. Thank you very much, please do not send us to the prison camp.
BLUF: Doing the same things as before, pretending this time there will somehow be a different result.
[IsraelTimes] Biden administration says it wants to use post-war opportunity to strengthen the PA; past efforts have failed to benefit Gazooks and prevent terror rulers from rearming.
Perhaps because he was speaking on background, the senior US State Department official briefing news hounds Monday was willing to reveal cracks in America’s confidence in its ability to help rehabilitate Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... without allowing its Hamas, the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood, rulers to benefit.

Nothing but 70+ years of violence and murderous attacks, enough, 'rebuild' on your own; US policy should be stay out, no 'support' from we tax payers, ever again.

A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
