They are if you use their metrics but, unfortunately for them, their metrics don’t stand up to real-world scrutiny. Defeating Wokeism isn’t merely a political, legal, or even cultural battle. We must also address what ultimately fuels Wokeness on a personal level: a delusional sense of moral superiority because it’s that moral superiority that is the vehicle for the left’s real power grab. Are the Woke, in fact, morally superior? If you ask them, they certainly are. Their thinking seems to run something like this: The world consists of people with different skin colors, genders, sexual orientations, etc. We are...

VIDEOSince we are now OFFICIALLY (although some in the liberal media won't admit it) in a recession the last thing needed is a tax increase. Yet a series of tax increases is what is in Joe Manchin's revived Build Back Broke bill as admitted by Morning Joe acting host Willie Geist and his guest Jake Sherman, the co-founder of Punchbowl News.

The backlash has begun. Senators Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Chuck Schumer (D-NY) have struck a deal to resurrect parts of Biden’s Build Back boondoggle under the new bill the “Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.” “I now propose and will vote for the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. Rather than risking more inflation with trillions in new spending, this bill will cut the inflation taxes Americans are paying, lower the cost of health insurance and prescription drugs, and ensure our country invests in the energy security and climate change solutions,” Manchin said. “President Biden, Leader Schumer and Speaker Pelosi have committed...

From CNN, July 25, 2022 [cnn.com/2022/07/25/opinions/jews-racism-january-6-committee-wolfson/index.html]: Editor's Note: Nathan Wolfson is the deputy digital director and social media manager at J Street, a pro-Israel, nonprofit advocacy group. Fact: There is some kind of a 'competition' between: 'J Street;' 'Haaretz;' 'B'tselem;' mondoweiss/972mag/mekomit; George Soros - 'NIF' (New Israel Fund) ; Arab group 'Adalah' et al, as to who is more anti Israel. Many using the "human rights" label as a game. BTW, the failure of contsing racist Arab-Islamic violence before and during 2021 Operation 'Guardian of the Walls,' is linked to NIF as police got "training" from twisted group. 27/07/2022: MK...

It happens to be the best way to take down an enemy society. What is a nation? That is the question. In the book of Genesis — whether you take it literally or metaphorically — a nation is essentially an extended family. Genesis Chapter Ten, often referred to as the Table of Nations, lists the peoples of the Earth, from Israel's perspective, along with their lineages. The number, apart from Israel, came to 70. Each particular nation was traceable back to an ancestor. Mankind was told to fill up the whole Earth, but disobeyed, and started to build the Tower...

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. economy shrank from April through June for a second straight quarter, contracting at a 0.9% annual pace and raising fears that the nation may be approaching a recession. The decline that the Commerce Department reported Thursday in the gross domestic product — the broadest gauge of the economy — followed a 1.6% annual drop from January through March. Consecutive quarters of falling GDP constitute one informal, though not definitive, indicator of a recession. Even with the economy recording a second straight quarter of negative GDP, many economists do not regard it as constituting a recession.

The U.S. military is now offering medical care to wounded Ukrainian troops at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany, the premier American hospital in Europe, Military Times has learned. ... Landstuhl is the largest American-run hospital outside of the U.S. and the only such facility in Europe that offers a full range of specialty care.

This list only includes destroyed vehicles and equipment of which photo or videographic evidence is available. Therefore, the amount of equipment destroyed is significantly higher than recorded here. Small arms, ATGMs, MANPADS, loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles, trailers and derelict equipment are not included in this list. All possible effort has gone into avoiding duplicate entries and discerning the status of equipment between captured or abandoned. Many of the entries listed as 'abandoned' will likely end up captured or destroyed. Similarly, some of the captured equipment might be destroyed if it can't be recovered. When the...

The BBC carried a story this week with the headline ‘Covid origin studies say evidence points to Wuhan market’. Bizarrely the paper in Science they are referring to, by Michael Worobey and colleagues, says no such thing. It says: ‘the observation that the preponderance of early cases were linked to the Huanan market does not establish that the pandemic originated there’. All three of the scientists quoted in the BBC story have been highly dismissive about even discussing the possibility that the pandemic began as an accident in a Wuhan laboratory. Their vested interest is clear: they worry that the...

Google and internet rights groups have called on Congress to weigh in on spyware, asking for sanctions and increased enforcement against so-called legit surveillanceware makers. During an open House Intelligence Committee hearing on Wednesday, US lawmakers heard testimony from Citizen Lab senior researcher John Scott-Railton; Shane Huntley, who leads Google's Threat Analysis Group; and Carine Kanimba, whose father was the inspiration for Hotel Rwanda and who was, herself, targeted by Pegasus spyware. This, of course, is the now-infamous malware that its developer, Israel's NSO Group, claims is only sold to legitimate government agencies — not private companies or individuals. Once...

The U.S. economy contracted in the second quarter of 2022 as the economy was battered by four-decade high inflation, record high fuel prices, soaring food costs, and tighter monetary policy. The government reported Thursday that Gross Domestic Product shrank by 0.9 percent in the April through June period. Economists had expected the economy to grow by 0.3 percent, according to the Wall Street Journal. The economy contracted by 1.6 percent in the second quarter. Many Americans consider two straight quarters of recession to be the marker of a recession. Economists, however, rely on the determination of the National Bureau of...
