It’s the weekend and another day under Chinese Bat Lung lock down. However, I’ve got some interesting links for you today, including a rebuttal to claims that the U.S. is a ‘brutal, barbarian society’; the day of reckoning approaches for Clinton and other Deep Staters; MI Governor Gretchen Whitmer’s dystopian assertion about abortion; a new sub for our U.S. Navy; and how sunshine truly is the best disinfectant. See you Monday!
Happy Friday! Your links today include a noble task for some wounded warriors, a seditious leading prompt by an MSNBC host, a rant about our whimpering subservience to bureaucrats and big tech, a thoughtful piece by Douglas Groothuis on how a Christian should respond to the pandemic, and how Mike Singletary is dealing with the pandemic. And finally … your first installment of Friday Funnies!
Good Thursday morning. Today’s links include an investigation into who “Anonymous” is, a call for Britain to help defund the WHO, a question about who the real editors are at the NYT, an announcement as Willow Creek Community Church turns the page, a long-overdue take-down of Zinn’s propaganda, and an eerie “coincidence” involving multiple local news outlets.
IT’S DÉJÀ VU ALL OVER AGAIN. Joe Biden Promises to ‘Transform This Nation’ in Accepting Bernie’s Endorsement.
“Biden insisted he would beef up America’s social safety net, ‘make sure that health care is made accessible and affordable to every American,’ provide a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants, and combat ‘structural racism.’ He blamed that ‘structural racism’ for ‘this godawful situation at which African Americans and Latinos suffer most at the hands of the coronavirus.'”
No. Just no.
QUARANTINE THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT. Dr. Anthony Fauci: China misled the world; virus erupted in mid-December
Dr. Fauci, an influential member of President Trump’s coronavirus task force, told the Fox News show “Watters’ World” over the weekend that as the disease spread to more people in mid-January in Wuhan and the surrounding Hubei province, the Chinese government said that human contagion was minimal, a fact that shaped for weeks the outside world’s sense of the danger and the appropriate response.
Both assertions were “clearly not correct … that was misinformation right from the beginning,” he said. COVID-19 was, in fact, a highly contagious and deadly disease.
I HOPE HE’S DONE RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT, BUT THE DAMAGE IS DONE. Bernie bows out
“Few would deny that over the course of the past five years, our movement has won the ideological struggle,” Sanders said on Wednesday. “It was not long ago that people considered these ideas radical and fringe. Today, they are mainstream ideas. Many of them are already being implemented in cities and states across the country.”
Each morning I’ll link three or four stories that I think are important, interesting or both. Right now I’m playing around with the formatting and functionality that the WordPress platform offers. I’ll eventually land on one, so enjoy the variety for the time being. If you see a format that works for you, please leave a comment.
TOM DEMPSEY, RIP. Tom Dempsey, NFL kicker who set a record for the longest field goal, dies of coronavirus. I remember reading as a kid about his record field goal.
