  • Introducing Contempt of Public

    American Greatness ^ | 13 Aug, 2023 | Roger Kimball
    It threatens to undermine that essential if often hard-to-define societal lubricant: trust. We have all heard about contempt of court and contempt of Congress. They are offenses for which one may be fined or jailed. But what about contempt of public? What’s the penalty for that? I don’t know that you will find contempt of public in the statute books. If not I offer up the phrase free and for nothing to the bureaucrats who look after such things. I think it should be added to our vocabulary if not to our code of laws. It names a grievous assault...

    On August 9, 2023, a three-judge panel of the United States District Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit found the federal ban on the possession of firearms by people who use marijuana to be unconstitutional under the Second Amendment.The case is USA v. Daniels. Daniels was pulled over for driving without a license plate in April 2022. One of the two officers was a Drug Enforcement Administration agent. That officer recognized the smell of marijuana. The two officers found several marijuana cigarette butts, a 9mm pistol, and a semi-automatic rifle in the vehicle. During questioning, Daniels admitted he was...

    American Greatness ^ | 14 Aug, 2023 | Victor Davis Hanson
    What is the long-term Democrat strategy that requires such short-term malodorous skullduggery? Joe Biden has about 17 months left as an elected politician—if he is lucky. That projection guides most of the inexplicable and shameless behavior of the Department of Justice and Biden himself. View Biden as in a race against the truth. Will he be physically and mentally able to complete his term and head to retirement before his decades-long crimes of corruption catch up to him? Joe Biden’s serial yarn that he never knew anything about his son Hunter’s quid pro quo grifting with rich foreign grandees has...

    What Is the Biblical Definition of Marriage? https://www.christianity.com/wiki/christian-life/what-is-the-biblical-definition-of-marriage.html Robert Hampshire Quote: "Think about it: Two far-from-perfect people are covenanting their life together based on no matter what they have done in the past, no matter what happens in the future, in sickness and health, and for better or worse until they die. What a beautiful picture of Jesus Christ (the groom) and his never-ending love for the Church (the bride)."

Bloomberg’s White House reporter Justin Sink tweeted the president’s claimed response Sunday evening from Delaware: “After a couple hours on the Rehoboth beach, @potus was asked about the rising death toll in Hawaii,” Sink posted on X. “‘No comment,’ he said before heading home.”

    Manhattan Contrarian ^ | 11 Aug, 2023 | Francis Menton
    On May 23, EPA put out its long-expected proposed Rule designed to eliminate, or nearly so, all so-called “greenhouse gas” emissions from the electricity-generation sector of the economy. The proposal came with the very long title: “New Source Performance Standards for GHG Emissions from New and Reconstructed EGUs; Emission Guidelines for GHG Emissions from Existing EGUs; and Repeal of the Affordable Clean Energy Rule.” The full document is 672 pages long. Various not-very-far-off deadlines are set, ranging from as early as 2030 for some changes to coal plants, to at the latest 2038 for the last changes to natural gas...

    US News ^ | 8/14/2023 | Reuters
    President Vladimir Putin's economic adviser rebuked the central bank on Monday as the rouble slid past 101 per U.S. dollar, blaming its 30% year-to-date slump on loose monetary policy and revealing growing discord among Russia's monetary authorities. The rouble, which has lost around a quarter of its value against the dollar since Putin sent troops into Ukraine in February 2022, hit 101.04 per U.S. dollar, its weakest point in almost 17 months. As the rouble tumbled, Putin's economic adviser Maxim Oreshkin said in an op-ed for the TASS news agency that the Kremlin wanted a strong rouble and expected a...

    New York Times ^ | Aug 14 | By Jack Nicas, Natalie Alcoba and Lucía Cholakian Herrera
    A far-right libertarian candidate won Argentina’s open presidential primary election on Sunday, a surprising showing for a politician who wants to adopt the U.S. dollar as Argentina’s official currency and embraces comparisons to Donald Trump. Javier Milei, 52, a congressman, economist and former television pundit, secured 30 percent of the vote with 96 percent of the ballots counted, making him the front-runner for the presidency in the fall general election. Polls had suggested that Mr. Milei’s support was at about 20 percent, and political analysts had predicted that his radical policy proposals — including abolishing the country’s central bank —...

    Is Biden the Stalin of our times? “CLIMATE CHANGE” IS A TROJAN HORSE being used as an excuse to target white republicans' small businesses the same way Stalin targeted the Kulaks during the holodomor. Biden is not only targeting small business truckers, he is also targeting family farms By Ezequiel Doiny VictimsofCommunism.org reported "...Communist regimes put Marx’s principles into practice, starting with the first Marxist state. Between 1917 and 1921, the Soviet Union destroyed nearly 600 Russian Orthodox monasteries and convents. The leaders of the first communist country oversaw the killing of at least 300 Orthodox clergy.

    NEW YORK, August 14. /TASS/. The policy of US President Joe Biden's administration in relation to Ukraine just postpones Kiev’s defeat, former National Security Advisor to President Donald Trump John Bolton wrote in an article published on The Wall Street Journal's website. According to Bolton, "Ukraine’s offensive failures and Russia’s defensive successes share a common cause: the slow, faltering, nonstrategic supply of military assistance by the West. The serial debates over whether to supply this or that weapons system, the perpetual fear that Russia will escalate to war against the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, and occasional Kremlin nuclear saber-rattling have...

    Niger’s military says it will prosecute deposed President Mohamed Bazoum for treason, hours after a group of senior Islamic scholars said the country’s coup leaders are open to diplomacy to resolve their standoff with West Africa’s regional bloc. In a statement read out on national television late on Sunday, a spokesman for Niger’s military laid out the charges against Bazoum as “high treason and undermining the internal and external security” of the country.

    When I was very young, I was manipulated into sex reassignment (also known as sex/gender correction or sex/gender transition) by a transsexual man in his mid-40s. For several years he gave me puberty blockers - dangerous substances that block the effects of testosterone - and hormones of the opposite sex, i.e. estrogens. Just before I turned 18, a psychologist, psychiatrist, and sexologist, after one visit, without any tests, fabricated a diagnosis of transsexualism and referred me, officially, for a sex change, which should never have happened. Currently, I have had a reversal procedure, returning to the true sex I was...

    In a colorful exchange last week with a journalist, Joe Biden snapped when asked about recent testimony from family friend Devon Archer that the president had met and talked on the phone with his son Hunter’s business partners. “I never talked business with anybody. I knew you'd have a lousy question,” the president fired back at Fox News’ Peter Doocy. “Why is that a lousy question?” Doocy asked. “Because it’s not true!” Biden exclaimed. The exchange was extraordinary, not just for its tense atmosphere, but also because the president and his surrogates have moved the goal posts after years of...

    An emergency incident is unfolding at Sydney International Airport after a flight was turned back within hours of departing. The Australian Federal Police was called to the airport on Monday evening to respond to the incident, a spokeswoman confirmed.

Malaysia Airlines flight MH122 left for Kuala Lumpur at 1.06pm but landed back on the Sydney runway at 3.47pm, flight tracking website FlightAware shows. An airport spokesman said emergency agencies were being supported in...

    Minnesota is reportedly set to pay out “reparations” to communities that have been disproportionately affected by marijuana laws. The “reparations,” as some are calling it, will be paid out as per a “CanRenew” grant program stuck into a new marijuana law that made the drug illegal to use, possess, and grow in the state starting as of August 1st. “Starting in fiscal year 2026, the program will award $15 million a year to eligible organizations in communities that have high concentrations of people who were convicted for a marijuana offense or had family members who were convicted,” the Star Tribune...
