More Linky Links

More stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- The Free Press on Climate Change. Not sure of if I approve of the method but am sure I'm not in favor of how corporate media covers the issue.

- The Tablet on the ADL and Al Sharpton. Both as bad as you think. And from The Tablet!

- Dan Wetzel on Deon Sanders.

- Hot Air on Secretary Bootyjuice (using that name for now on)

Linky Links

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- Useful 5-minute breathing exercises.

Peter Attia on the connection between aspartame and cancer. After reviewing the data he remains underwhelmed. Think the proper question would be if any amount of soda is healthy?

- Do you realize how many Americans were rooting for Sweden?

- The Tablet on the Military's "Thinning the Ranks." Using Covid "vaccines" to weaken the military and America.

More Linky Links

More stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- Glenn Reynolds: Democrats throwing blacks under the bus in favor of progressive policies. Blacks or Jews who vote Democrat are really doing so against their own interests.

- The Tablet on Silicon Valley's Civil War. Put me firmly in the Andreessen/Musk/Thiel camp. 

- Reminder that Donald Trump still has a $475 million defamation suit pending against CNN. Based upon the recent Durham report I wouldn't be surprised if CNN is now anxious to settle the case out of court.

- Nuclear is humanity's greenest energy option. Thanks for stating the obvious.

The Turn

Fantastic article in The Tablet describing one person's "gnawing discomfort" and "sense of panic" over what the Democratic Party and "the Left" has become

Have a feeling that there are many Democrats feeling this way as if they have in reality become politically homeless. The words, beliefs and actions of the politicians they voted for, the newspapers they've read their whole life, and the schools they've attended are almost unrecognizable. And unsupportable. Looting is not social justice. Censorship and the silencing of voices is not the idea of free speech previously held sacred. "My body - my choice" has Orwellianly been turned on its head. There's a silent epidemic of a crisis of belief in the Democratic Party.

When "'the left' becomes the party of wealthy elites, and state security agencies who preach racial division, state censorship, contempt for ordinary citizens and for the US Constitution, and telling people what to do and think at every turn" it is a crisis of conscience in the very fabric of many whose very identity was tied into being a liberal Democrat.

The question becomes - what do these people do? Are they self-aware enough to make "The Turn?" Do they silently soldier on unenthusiastically keeping up appearances? Do they abandon the Party and become Independents? None of the answers to these questions seems like good omens for the Democrats.
