We've lost our ever-loving minds: Christmas edition Justin Hart Late last year, Pew Research conducted a poll asking Americans what gives their life meaning. 1 in 20 people responded that COVID did. 😲 Virtue signaling is the domain of those who have nothing else to live for really. Today, we bring you some of the worst examples of blinding virtue signaling Christmas lights from the last 3 years. First, let’s make sure that you don’t have TOO MANY people over for Christmas dinner. This family in Canada had their doors busted open because of too many people kissing under the mistletoe. 2 years ago, someone’s mom put an anti-viral spin on Elf on a Shelf is just about the worst thing ever. I am here for a visit. Santa said I could. I’ve been tested for Covid. The test came back good. This virus is awful, and even blue, but we me around, oh the fun things we will do. Wash your hands and keep your distance, So Santa can see you’re always consistent. 🙄 The elf in its own enclosed plexig...

You know it is coming don't you? The 'hope' on the horizon as the revelations trickle out and allow identification and prosecution of those which many deem 'responsible' for the last three years. There will be cheering and parties as the chosen scapegoats shall be offered to the public as a sacrifice in order to quell their anger and subdue their appetite for punishment. Wouldn't it be nice if the system, which we all have grown into, were actually designed to provide justice at this level? But alas, I don't believe in such, I fear that all has been designed for just this sort of moment in mind and that the dream of 'justice' is simply that, a dream which can be dangled for eternity. Take the Exxon Valdez spill example. The incident happened in 1989 and in 2008 the courts were still cutting the damages which the company has to pay and even later on in 2015, they conduct the final hearing which ends twenty six years of litigation. And this was the fin...

Snowden and Controlled Opposition BY  MR. E   For nearly ten years, the US government has been  legally enabled  to disseminate misinformation and propaganda domestically. They’ve been doing it for centuries internationally, and of late this criminal organization has taken a very clear stance that its own population is now its greatest enemy. Of course, this has been going on illegally for much longer. If we define misinformation as the telling of half-truths or outright lies to the public, then we’ve just accurately characterized what every politician, bureaucrat and military officer who ever appeared in the mass media does. Shortly after the Smith-Mundt Act of 1948 and Foreign Relations Authorization Act of 1987 were neutralized, a savior appeared. Risking life and limb, a former CIA and NSA technical contractor leaked classified materials giving Americans an updated look at just how pervasive the US surveillance state had gotten. I say ‘updated’ because, to most i...

We Are Still Locked Down JEFFREY A. TUCKER   C onsider just how fortunate we are to have the Twitter Files. Every few days, we are seeing dumps of documents from the operations of Twitter before Elon Musk took over. This weekend’s release was especially shocking. It revealed a close and symbiotic relationship between the company’s management and the FBI, which employs 80 people to police social networks and flag posts. They aren’t looking for crime. They were focused on wrongthink on matters of politics.  In other words, all our worst suspicions have been confirmed. We still await the Covid files but let there be no doubt about what they will show in grim detail. Twitter worked with government to throttle the reach and searchability of accounts that took issue with the main messaging of the CDC/HHS from early in lockdowns to the present. We already knew that Facebook had  deleted  7 million posts in the second quarter of 2020. Twitter pulled some 10,000 accounts down...

A Christmas Parable James Howard Kunstler “The powerful are panicking, and so they should. Their secrets are leaking.” —Miranda Devine, The New York Post    As the Yule log burns down, and the trivialities of the season melt into air, the nation might ask itself how the authorities who run things went to war against the citizens of this land. I will tell you and it will probably make you angry: It started when the women of the professional and managerial class watched their avatar, Hillary Clinton, lose the 2020 election against a man who seemed the quintessence of everything they hated about Daddydom.      Donald Trump, flawed to perfection, wrecked the chance of the amalgamated successful women of America to run the national household. Out came the pussy-hats, the Wiccans, and the celebrities threatening to “blow up the White House.” Out came a savage animus against men generally, and a campaign to feminize them in retaliation — and then punish them for o...
