This from climate activist Greta Thunberg:
Re: the pic at left, here’s a conversation between me and two people I don’t know:
Kent Sullivan: You are an idiot, which is obvious by your unnecessary use of profanity and poor grammar.
Me: LOL!!! And quite loudly, too!! I was thinking the exact same thing!! I wonder where he stands politically.
We’ve all seen the results of surveys that ask, “Do you think America is on the right track?”
You can believe anything you want; you can be anywhere on the political spectrum you choose, but you are hard-pressed to think that what’s going on here (as expressed in the carton at left) represents anything remotely like the right “track.”
Sorry, that requires thinking, which is something we’re no longer capable of doing.
I urge patience among those many Americans who are frustrated that the U.S. Justice Department hasn’t indicted Donald Trump and the many others who clearly conspired to overthrow the United States federal government. This is a complicated matter, with hundreds of people involved.
I have no patience whatsoever for a justice system that, to date at least, has not even begun to investigate Ginni Thomas, the wife of a U.S. Supreme Court justice, for the role she obviously played in all this.
Her email revealed that she had urged Republican lawmakers in Arizona to choose their own slate of electors after the 2020 presidential election, arguing, without evidence, that the results that gave Joe Biden a victory were fraudulent. Once that happened, a formal investigation should have been initiated the same day.
Nancy Pelosi and Holy Communion
Do you ever have the experience of coming across a piece of news and finding it impossible to believe? It’s so easy to make stuff up nowadays and put it on social media for gullible dupes to forward unwittingly. Does what you’re reading just have to be an example of that?
Th conversation at left sent me to Google, because it seemed so incredibly unlikely, but, by Jiminy, it’s true, at least according to a large number of reports. Nancy Pelosi, who is among two-thirds of Americans who support a woman’s right to choose to have an abortion, has been singled out by some archbishop for divine punishment.
Our central problem as a society is that we have lost our capacity to reason.
Hats off to Robert Harrington for the riposte of the day.
Tucker Carlson and I both graduated from Trinity College in Hartford, CT, and many fellow alumni are deeply chagrined to have any relationship, even by chance, with this abominable human being.
There’s no doubt that the anti-abortion movement has total indifference for the welfare of the children involved.
Comedian George Carlin nailed this many decades ago:
Morphing our consumer-driven economy into one that is less resource-intensive would most certainly improve our odds of attaining some sort of sustainability as a species.
Sadly, we’re surrounded by messages that equate consumption with success: newer cars, bigger houses, wider and bigger flat-screen TVs, and most Americans simply “play the game.”
Fiona Hill is a former official at the U.S. National Security Council specializing in Russian and European affairs, best known for her testimony in the first impeachment of Donald Trump.
The point she makes here is one of the most astounding things about Trump’s meteoric rise to become the most powerful person on Earth. I.e., almost half of U.S. voters believe that he’s an honest and effective servant of the American people, rather than a dishonest and selfish pig whose interests do not extend a millimeter beyond his own fortunes.
As we go on, and the evidence grows that he attempted to overthrow the United States government, most of his supporters still believe that the election was stolen, and that the Deep State removed him illegally.
Simply amazing.
