[Redstate] In reporting on apparent CIA involvement in spying on an American citizen, RedState’s Bonchie observed:
If this were a Republican implicated, it’d be treated as the largest political scandal of the last hundred years.
And so it would. Therefore: Let’s treat it as the largest political scandal of the last hundred years.
I don’t see evidence that we need the cooperation of the blue media establishment to convince a majority of the American people that such is the case. The Other Guys like to behave as though they are the gatekeepers of public opinion. But we don’t have to accept their formulation. There’s an awful lot of empirical evidence out there that they only have 35 to 45 per cent of the voters under management. We can get to the rest, where "we" means the combined forces of the red media and the red citizenry. We do not have to sit here and grouse that "the media" won’t cover this. Sure it will. And that’s because we’re the media too.
Not only that. Almost every major story post-9/11 was broken by the rightwing press, explored there, and only reluctantly covered by the mainstream media when they got tired of their readers demanding information to rebut the nonsense their crazy relatives were fussing about... that turned out upon examination to be true.
As the Mueller investigation was winding down, multiple polls began appearing to tell us that a majority of registered voters — a small majority to be sure, but a majority nevertheless — believed the Mueller investigation to be "politically motivated" or "a partisan witch hunt." We enabled that. Activists and media figures on our side were the only ones who told people just how crooked that whole Mueller Show really was. It sure wasn’t CNN or The New York Times.
Skips to BLUF:
There are a lot of these facts. It isn’t just Flynn. It isn’t just Carter Page. It isn’t just FISA. It isn’t just an FBI Director who lied under oath to the Court; or a Director of National Intelligence who lied under oath to Congress; or even a CIA Director who persuaded foreign allies to run sting operations on U.S. citizens for political purposes. It’s all of that, and a lot more. Only a tiny percentage of the public has the vaguest idea how much of it there really is. Things we know for a fact.
Lying to the FISA court.
Lying to Congress.
Enlisting foreign intelligence agencies to spy in YS persons.
Spreading lies designed to destroy an ejected president's ability to implement his foreign policy-- including forcing him to push the nation to the brink of war with a nuclear-armed Russia that doesn't threaten us in the slightest. While doing everything possible to prevent him from liberating us from their CCP pimps.
Yeah, infinitely worse than a few spooks grabbing some campaign documents in 1972.
[StrategicCulture] Academia does not really have a reputation for being riddled with violence and sudden unexplained deaths. Yet at the peak of the Covid-19 pandemic, two young pioneering researchers from the same obscure field of study met with mysterious ends.
Outside of academic circles, Dr. James Taylor and Dr. Bing Liu were relative unknowns. Inside of the scientific community, however, the two had achieved something like rock-star status. And now, within a period of 30 days, both young men are dead at a time when their talents are needed most.
James Taylor, 1979-2020
Let’s first consider the life and work of James Taylor, who passed away on April 2 at the age of 40. Anyone hoping to learn details about the cause of death of this remarkable man will be disappointed; to date, no information has been made available to the public....
According to his obituary on the Johns Hopkins University website, Taylor was “a trailblazer in computational biology and genomics research,” who made a significant contribution as a “scientist, teacher, and colleague.”
Taylor’s breakout moment in the scientific community, however, came with the creation of Galaxy, a cloud-based system that has been described as “the first comprehensive data analysis resource in Life Sciences.” According to its website, Galaxy provides an open platform that aims to make computational biology accessible to scientists, mostly those who are involved in genomics research, a major field of study when it comes to the development of drugs and vaccines.
[Red State] When President Donald Trump said that he was going to withhold money from the World Health Organization because of their failures and falsehoods over the Wuhan coronavirus, that was great call for accountability.
Tucker Carlson said that Trump may be considering giving them some money after all.
[Breitbart] During an interview broadcast on Friday’s edition of the Fox Business Network’s "WSJ at Large," White House Trade Adviser Peter Navarro stated that China deliberately allowed the coronavirus to spread to the rest of the world and that the virus "could have been contained in Wuhan."
Navarro said, "China hid the virus behind the shield of the World Health Organization, and that was a time, Gerry, when that virus could have been contained in Wuhan. Instead, what China did was put hundreds of thousands of Wuhanians and Chinese on planes that were allowed to go to Milan and New York and elsewhere, but not to Beijing and Shanghai."
Host Gerry Baker asked Navarro if he was saying, "China, quite deliberately, shutting off some — a lot of domestic travel, but allowing international travel, quite deliberately knew how serious this was and allowed the virus to be exported, along with a lot of other Chinese exports to the United States and elsewhere?"
Navarro responded, "That’s a matter of fact. It should not be in dispute."
[Spiked] Governments around the world say they are following ‘The Science’ with their draconian measures to stem the spread of the virus. But the science around Covid-19 is bitterly contested. Many experts have serious doubts about the effectiveness of the measures, and argue that our outsized fears of Covid-19 are not justified. Knut Wittkowski is one such expert who has long argued for a change of course. For 20 years, Wittkowski was the head of Biostatistics, Epidemiology, and Research Design at The Rockefeller University’s Center for Clinical and Translational Science. spiked spoke to him to find out more about the pandemic.
[The Spectator] The liars destroy with impunity because they know they always will get away with it. Republicans watch the character assassination and then go on Sean Hannity to sound brave for five minutes. "These people will pay a steep price, Sean." "I won’t let them get away with it, Sean." "Let not your heart be troubled, Sean." "We will investigate every crime and every perjury, Sean." Three years of hearing this from Paul Ryan, Reince Priebus, Trey Gowdy, Charles Grassley, Lindsey Graham, Rudy Giuliani, Jason Chaffetz, Kevin McCarthy. Well, Fox News Alert: They all got away with it. Comey. Brennan. Clapper. Blasey Ford. Schiff. Hillary. Strzok. Page. McCabe.
If the Left truly believed in the truth of the slogans they chanted in their failed effort to destroy Justice Kavanaugh, does anyone truly believe that Biden still would be standing today? Does anyone truly believe that Sonia Sotomayor could not have been completely destroyed at the time of her SCOTUS nomination if she were conservative? If the media were not a division of the Democrat Party, does anyone doubt that New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo today would have been forced from office like his immediate predecessors, Eliot Spitzer and David Paterson, if only for presiding over so extraordinary a health catastrophe that his one state accounts for half the coronavirus illnesses and deaths in the whole country? Cuomo ordered nursing homes in his state to admit coronavirus-infected seniors into facilities that were woefully unprepared to handle the medical ramifications, and that order singularly caused mass death. And yet the same media that seek any and every angle to blame Trump for not wearing a mask lionize Cuomo, who not only should wear a mask but also should change his fingerprints, undergo plastic surgery to reconfigure his appearance, and hide for dear life in some El Chapo cave from the children and grandchildren left behind by the more than 5,000 defenseless seniors whom he has martyred so far on the altar of Democrat liberalism.
There is a time to love and a time to hate. This is a time to hate.

I'll know the Right is serious when I stop hearing "That is not who we are!" every time someone fights back.
Dear "conservatives": I won't fault you for wanting to keep your heads down -- not everyone is suited for the fight, after all--but could you at least shut up and stay out of the way of those who will fight?
Tablet News via Instapundit
The People's Republic of China now commands the world's largest population, its second-largest economy, and a military-industrial complex and high technology sector second only to America's. Behind this great mass of men and material stands Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the Communist Party of China. Xi, supported by the class of Chinese communists who rule along with him, believe it is their role to guide China—and the rest of the world—into a new age. China's military expansion, massive economic investment in controlling global trade routes, and escalating information operations all point to a struggle for dominance that puts it in direct conflict with the West.
In their internal speeches and planning documents, China's communist party leaders describe their perceptions of this struggle quite openly: As Beijing sees it, China’s success depends on discrediting the tenets of liberal capitalism so that notions like individual freedom and constitutional democracy come to be seen as the relics of an obsolete system. To understand how China’s leaders intend to accomplish this and fully appreciate their designs for the future, we must first come to terms with how they understand themselves.
..."The rejuvenation of the Chinese people" has been officially endorsed as the "historical mission" of the Communist Party since 1987 but it is an old dream whose origins predate the party’s founding. In the early 20th century Chinese intellectuals searched for a way to "save China," modernize it, and restore it to the preeminence that the world’s largest civilization deserved. What made the later communists different from other Chinese modernizers was the solution they endorsed. As their sloganeering went: "Only socialism can save China." The slogan is still in use, though Xi and other 21st-century Communists add a second clause: "Only socialism can save China, and only socialism can develop China."
...As proud self-declared Marxists, the Beijing leadership has carefully studied the failures of past attempts to "construct a socialism superior to capitalism." From the failings of the Maoist era, the Chinese communists learned that economic and technological modernization cannot happen in a vacuum. In many Chinese minds the People’s Republic of China’s technological stagnation under Mao blends together with the Qing dynasty’s unfortunate discovery that scientific advances in the West had left their military obsolete. The lesson in both cases is the same: If China is to grow strong, it must be integrated with the world outside it.
...Internally, the Chinese government can appear terrifyingly omnipotent. As an actor on the global stage, the current balance of power and the existing norms of the international system still constrain the party’s power to control free speech and association outside their borders. The NBA fracas showed that the United States and other Western powers have the capability to push back against communist encroachments in their society, given sufficient will and motivation to do so. For the party, censorship of hostile ideas and intimidation of those who voice them is only a stopgap solution. To secure their victory, liberal values do not just need to be silenced. They must be discredited.
[PJ] California Governor Gavin Newsom weighed in on the question of bailing out states whose budgets have been blown up by the coronavirus pandemic.
Newsom told CNN’s "State of the Union" that a state bailout was not "charity" and that Congress has a "moral and ethical obligation" to help Americans across the country.
The House passed a $3 trillion coronavirus relief bill last week which contained almost a trillion dollars to bail out states. It also contained goodies for all — another stimulus check, help for renters, college debt relief, and cash for illegal immigrants. The Gavster is going to have a very difficult time getting this one 'off the ground.'

You sign contracts without the others consent and then claim they're responsible for your obligation.
It's not a question of moral or ethical obligation, though I'm amused you use the words you have no understanding of.
It's a question of law. In this case the Constitution.
"Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction" - 13th Amendment
We are not your slaves to keep your plantation running or obligated for your debt.

Now, you see, this is every bit as ridiculous as sending ballots to graveyards. We know that Newsom allows homeless freaks to pee and poop on city streets without any masks on their faces. He lets murderous felons out of prisons because he's afraid they'll get coronavirus. He chases good businesses and citizens out of the state with the highest taxes in the country. He squanders billions on illegal aliens. In fact, he has declared the entire state a sanctuary for illegal aliens in violation of federal law and then he wants the feds to bail him out when he spends beyond his means? To Bee or not to Bee...

Gov. Nonsense is absolutely sick in the head. And the Feds/IRS are 100% correct in disallowing state taxes as a write-off...just enables these high-tax states to just keep on keeping on with taxes...if their residents can write 'em off on their federal taxes, no sweat off of our backs.
Meanwhile, there are ZERO moral & ethical obligations for Congress to bail out anybody (including Boeing, e.g.), and especially these 'tarded states.

[Free Beacon] The coronavirus crisis could sink many schools—and leave a windfall for the survivors
They've been through riots, protests, and natural disasters—but America's colleges have never seen anything like the financial meltdown the coronavirus is about to bring to their campuses.
The rising wave of health fears, added costs, and vanishing tuition payments could crush small colleges, many of which were already hanging by a financial thread. Those that can weather the crisis—including big-name universities with billions in their bank accounts—in turn stand to gain big from the fallout.
The emptying out of schools and the mass transition to distance learning has already been "the largest all-sector hit that we've ever seen," Jim Hundrieser, a vice president with the National Association of College and University Business Officers (NACUBO), told the Washington Free Beacon. But the challenges of this spring pale in comparison to the shock many colleges are expecting in the fall, when social distancing measures and a possible second wave could create the most surreal semester ever.
That strangeness, experts project, could in turn cause a massive drop in college revenue. Well-endowed colleges and big research schools have the savings to weather those effects. But many schools are beholden to semi-annual tuition payments, which are about to undergo the biggest shock since the Second World War.

20% of Liberal Arts Colleges were already failing before the CON virus. Estimated nearly 50% were to fail in 2-3 years. Conservative Colleges are or were thriving.

No reason to put 35-40% of 18 year-olds in college programs where half or more of them can't write a complex sentence or do basic algebra or follow a complex argument.
This might well move us, finally, toward a two-track secondary educational system in which the majority of young people on reaching the age of 16 get focused, serious, practical vocational training leading to a useful job.
Maybe 20%, maximum, of 16 year-olds should go on to college--and should start doing college work in what is now junior year of high school.
Which means the ranks of undergraduate institutions should be culled by some 40-50 percent.
#6
There will be a trimming or lopping off of B.S. no-content courses that basically push multi-culturalism, social justice, diversity, open borders; courses that tend to push division, victimhood and identity politics. These courses tend to be hotbeds for political activism, unrest and chaos on campuses.
Distant education methods should also limit the number of these courses that are offered.
#7
Distance learning will erode the industrial, one-size-fits-all public schooling model. It's a vicious cycle for public schools.
Homeschooling, at about 3% now, will be adopted by 10% or more of the school-age population within another couple of years.
Most public school districts cannot take such a hit to their funding: their revenues are tied directly to enrollments. Their class sizes will balloon, and more and more parents will realize that homeschooling is superior to sending their kid to Lord of the Flies Middle School where overburdened adults fail to manage the chaos of 40+ kids in a classroom.
#11
Homeschooling is all very well for the organized, but I am not good at that kind of thing, and among those who are, there are plenty who would rather pay someone to handle it and can afford the expense. I would expect there to be an increase in private schools of all sorts to fill that need, from homeschooling groups taking care of the teaching together to churches to special interests like special ed. gifted ed, and so forth.
#13
It’s more efficient for one adult to teach twenty kids than for one adult to teach one kid. The real problem is the low quality and waste in the public school system.
[Babylon Bee] SACRAMENTO, CA—To prepare for the upcoming November election, Governor Gavin Newsom has ordered ballots to be sent to every cemetery in the state.
The governor of California said that ballot boxes would be sent to cemeteries across the state to ensure everyone had the right to vote, dead or alive.
"We need every single Californian to vote, living or dead," Newsom said, wagging his finger. "Without everyone doing their part, no matter their undocumented living status, we can't beat the Republicans this time around. It's science!" When he said the word "science," he lifted a test tube into the air to lend some credence to his claims.
Newsom said that people who don't want the dead to vote are discriminating against the "mortally challenged."
American Thinker
merican universities are troubled institutions. More serious than the attention-getting P.C. madness, however, has been the subversion of intellectual standards — armies of "diversity and inclusion" bureaucrats tasked with admitting unqualified students academically dependent on easy-to-pass fluff courses in gender studies and the like. Add grade inflation and, if that fails, endless tutoring to push troubled students to meaningless degrees. If that, too, fails, eliminate admissions tests to end "white privilege."
So far, efforts to reverse this intellectual decline have fallen short, but, as odd as it may seem, the COVID-19 virus outbreak and the attendant financial crisis offer an intriguing never-waste-a-crisis possibility. A possible parallel exists with the 1957 "Sputnik moment," an event that likewise inspired panic — the sudden dread of being defenselessness against Soviet nuclear missiles.
...The COVID-19 pandemic should be a wake-up call, a message that pushing our universities to pursue racial/sex equality at the expense of intellectual rigor guarantees national disaster. Time to acknowledge that forcing chemistry professors to waste untold hours "diversifying" their now dumbed down syllabus imposes opportunity costs that hardly burden our Chinese rivals.
...Begin with the numbers. In 2017, the proportion of non-U.S. full-time graduate students enrollees in electrical engineering was 81%; in computer science 79%; in mechanical engineering 62%; in chemical engineering 57%; and metallurgical/materials engineering, 55%, If sub-divided by country of origin, the Chinese domination of these non-U.S. students is clear. In 2017—18, there were some 162,000 Chinese graduate students in STEM fields (and 201,000 in non-STEM disciplines). The runners up were Indians (154,000) with a huge gap among other nationalities — Saudi Arabia with 20,000 was in third place, 17,000 from South Korea, and so on. Yes, many Americans are now flocking to high-tech fields, but the data show even larger surges among those from abroad.
[Jacobinmag] Instead of letting Amazon use coronavirus to dominate even more of the economy, the company should be nationalized and reoriented to serve the public good instead of predatory capitalism.

Allow me to disabuse you of your naïve delusion that we still live in a country with a justice system and break it to you that no one is going to jail for what was done to Flynn, or for the unmasking business, or for the Russia hoax or, for that matter, for any of the corrupt Dem/foreigner collaborations exemplified by the payoffs received by stripperphile and Bolivian folk medicine enthusiast Hoover Biden.
No one.
Well, maybe Mike Flynn himself will. Since his judge is now making up the law as he goes along — in law school they taught us that the judicial branch didn’t prosecute, but that was before the Trump Exception™ to existing principles — I actually expect that the next time the General shows up in court the judge will sentence him on his coerced plea to a "crime" that never happened and order the marshals to immediately take him into custody. And, as we have seen far too often since the advent of the bat biter blues, too many LEOs simply obey, apparently never having got the 411 on how the Nuremburg defense of "just following orders" is unsat. Flynn will get pardoned instead of exonerated, so he’ll get sprung from stir, but he will have no civil recourse for resurrecting his reputation or savings, which is the plan.
We have two justice systems, one for them and one for us, meaning we have no justice system at all.
Sorry to have to break this to you. I know it makes you sad, but how do you think I feel? I spent 27 years helping defend this country and voilà — here we are, a flippin’ banana republic. Turns out our elite is perfectly cool with treating our Constitution like Charmin.
You do understand that to the establishment, this dual track system where they ignore the law and we get the law dropped on us — including through active framing, as with LTG Flynn, to keep us in line — is how they want it, right? This is not an unintended consequence. They are for this.
They are actively for the abuse of the legal system to persecute their political enemies. You adorable naïfs come to me thinking that I, as a lawyer, will assuage your gnawing fear that something is rotten in the state of America. "Kurt, but this...this isn’t right? How can some people be prosecuted but other people with connections get away with crimes?" Well, the answer is simple: that is how many of the people with their grubby paws on the levers of power want it.
They want to use the government to stifle dissent, as the IRS did to Tea Party groups.
They want to make people afraid to oppose them by threatening them with crushing legal fees and maybe jail if they dare join the opposition — look at the trail of bankrupt Trumpworld folks after Obamagate.
They want to frame people working for their enemies and ruin them and put them in prison, a la LTG Flynn.
This permeates liberal culture. Did you know that the ACLU — the Alleged Civil Liberties Union — just sued Betsy De Vos because she ordered reforms to campus man-witch trials that gave men such radical due process rights as the right to know the charges, to have time to respond to them, to not be judged by the same person who is prosecuting them, and to confront their accuser? The ACLU came out against these things — at least in cases where ole Grandpa Badfinger’s not the accused. And speaking of that handsy old weirdo, how about all those lib luminaries leveling with us that even if he did what Tara Reade said he did, eh, no biggie. They’ll vote for him anyway, and that whiny broad should stop crying all over their beautiful progressive narrative.
...You need to prepare yourself. No one of any significance is going to jail for any of this. Ever.
...I’d love to be wrong. Maybe I am. Maybe the unbroken track record of injustice we’ve seen over the last decade will suddenly break. And maybe my pet unicorn Chet will be the foreman of the jury when one of these slugs somehow gets called to account.
