CDC Unmasked


Last year the CDC used a widely criticized study to recommend  that children continue to wear masks in school.

Now, the University of Toronto has shown that the study that the CDC used was indeed flawed because of the limited abound of data used and it’s lack of inclusion of important variables. 

The University of Toronto replicated the CDC study but with a much larger and more meaningful data set. The results? No significant relationship between mask mandates and case rates. These results persisted when using regression methods to control for differences across districts.

“School districts that choose to mandate masks are likely to be systematically different from those that do not in multiple, often unobserved, ways. We failed to establish a relationship between school masking and pediatric cases using the same methods but a larger, more nationally diverse population over a longer interval. Our study demonstrates that observational studies of interventions with small to moderate effect sizes are prone to bias caused by selection and omitted variables”

Biden lacks energy

Despite President Biden’s claims that he’s doing everything he can to fight inflation, it’s clear he’s not.

Looking only at oil and gas production in the US, we see that we are still far behind the trend we were on before the pandemic.

Little doubt that Biden‘s anti-fossil fuel policies are negatively impacting supply, resulting in higher prices.

April 2022 Interior Secretary Deb Haaland “we continue to appeal the court injunction requiring us to allow leases and permits and I have used my authority to reduce by 80 precent the areas to lease, impose stringent environmental safeguards, and ensure the American people receive their fair share.”

Black lives really do not matter to BLM



Where’s the outrage? Where’s BLM? Where’s Lebron?

Another week and more lives lost. Until the Democrats stop propagating the false narrative nothing will change.

Black lives matter - I support the words but cannot support the organization because it propagates the false narrative that systemic racism is the primary cause of the disparities(murders, incarceration, teen mothers, fatherless households, income, wealth, etc.) between blacks and whites.

Racism exists (though not widespread), it’s bad, and we should continue to work to reduce it. Excess police force exists (though rare), it's  bad and we should continue to work to reduce it.

BLM organization’s positions and policies do not address the problems (murders, fatherless households, teen pregnancy, lack of agency) and do not address the key root causes (it’s not excessive police force or systemic racism.)

This is Sad




The Brown Opinion Project recently asked their undergraduates: Do you thi
nk America is the greatest country in the world?

Only 12.9 percent of undergraduates answered yes, while 74.7 percent answered no. 

This isn’t a surprise with the false narratives that Democrats and liberals embrace and propagate. 

Hannah Nicole Jones and the New York Times continue to push the false narrative that slavery was the centerpiece of America’s Founding and also the very reason for the American Revolution. Actually slavery was very contentious at the time of the revolution and Constitution and it was only “the Great Compromise” between the Northern and Southern states that allowed this country to form. This tension remained a crucible of discontent that resulted in the Civil War where over 650,000 Northerners (equivalent to over 9 MILLION of todays US population) died to end slavery. 

And then you have left wing “historians” like Howard Zinn that look at specific times of history and then focus on a single narrow negative aspect to conclude and EDUCATE students that America’s history is horribly negative. Yes, if you look at Columbus and the effect of Europeans coming to America it was horrible for Native Americans.  But in context, in the history of the world, it is far from unsual that a much lower technology population  be displaced by a much higher technology population when new lands were discovered. 

I believe America is the greatest country in the world because of the freedom and opportunities it provides to ALL. And yes I believe in American exceptionalism.

It’s parenting NOT systemic racism

The problems of poverty, pathology and inequality in the United States are not primarily due to poor schools, discrimination, or low incomes. The primary cause is parents. Parents without time, skills or values are the most significant problem. 

And being a single parent must make it much much more difficult.

Cure(lockdown) worse than disease?

So maybe the FDA (and Twitter,  Facebook AND  teacher’s unions and Democrats) were wrong and actually did more damage than good with their position on lockdowns and their censoring and silencing if opposing views. 

In October 2020 a group of scientists including world renowned epidemiologist s and infectious disease doctors advised (The Great Barrington Declaration) the US to protect the vulnerable from COVID but to NOT lockdown because


the harm the lockdown would do to the rest of society. Not only was the advice ignored it was silenced and censored by Democrats supported by the administrative state at the CDC and FDA, teacher unions and social media. 

Why?  Who knows for sure. But keeping the lockdown in place was hurting the economy and Trump

A major study by Johns Hopkins University earlier this year concluded that global lockdowns have had a much more detrimental impact on society than they have produced any benefit, with researchers urging that they “are ill-founded and should be rejected as a pandemic policy instrument.”

Record ILLEGAL Immigration

Biden’s policies are a mess AND put many innocents at risk and allow Mexican cartels to get rich.

I support immigration. A lot of immigration. But legal immigration, with a mix of merit based  (engineers, scientists, entrepreneurs, doctors, mathematicians, etc.) and opportunity-based (poor people who want to work hard, adopt American values, and get ahead). 

(Note-The numbers are the apprehensions. We do not know how many people get through without being apprehended)

Democrats Hypocrisy

Last year the Democrats lied to support their claim of an insurrection by dramatizing Officer Sicknick's death.  They proclaimed him a hero, had his body laid in honor at the Capital and orchestrated a national mourning.  However, Officer Sicknick died of a stroke unrelated to the Capital riot.

Last week a heroic Texas National Guardsman dove into the Rio Grande river to save two struggling illegal immigrants.  Unfortunately Bishop Evans drowned in the effort.

You won't hear much more than a peep from the Democrats.

Why?

Maybe they used the Sicknick's death to build their false narrative of an insurrection.

And maybe the death of a heroic guardsman helping to protect the border doesn't fit their political narrative.



Biden continues dithering

Democrats don’t really care

Is anyone else curious as to why we aren’t seeing the widespread riots and protests over white police shooting of  Lyoya, unarmed black man now?  It couldn’t have anything to do with the fact that the country now has a Democrat President now could it? Hmmmm.

Biden pays to not work

Health and Hu­man Ser­vices Sec­re­tary Xavier Be­cerra on Wednes­day ex­tended the na­tional pub­lic-health emer­gency for an­other 90 days. Why? Be­cause per­ma­nent cri­sis means more de­pendence on gov­ern­ment.

The Fam­i­lies First Coro­n­avirus Re­sponse Act of March 2020 sus­pended food-stamp work re­quire­ments for able-bod­ied adults with­out de­pen­dents dur­ing the emer­gency. These in­di­vid­u­als nor­mally can’t re­ceive ben­e­fits for more than three months over a three-year pe­riod un­less they work or par­tic­i­pate in a work-train­ing pro­gram. Con­gress also boosted ben­e­fits, so the av­er­age monthly pay­ment is now dou­ble ($240 per per­son) what it was in 2019.

Con­gress also in­creased Med­icaid fund­ing for states dur­ing the emer­gency on the con­di­tion they don’t re­move ben­e­fi­cia­ries from their rolls, even if they earn too much to qual­ify. Med­icaid en­roll­ment has swelled by more than 14.6 mil­lion (20%) since Feb­ruary 2020—more than gained cov­er­age from Oba­ma­Care.

Slovakia Leads, Biden-not so much

I’m Ashamed of Biden’s Dithering 

Slovakia, a tiny European country, is going to send it’s long range anti-air missiles to Ukraine.

In the meantime despite Ukraine’s heroically brave efforts, thousands of civilians have been murdered, cities are being  reduced to rubble and millions of Ukraine’s have become refugees.  Without better weapons Ukraine will not be able to stop Russia.

It’s been 6 weeks + 2 days since Russia invaded Ukraine and Biden continues to dither.

Last year Biden suspended delivering short range anti-tank missiles because he didn’t want to provoke Putin and only resumed minimal shipments as Russian gathered its forces and threatened Ukraine.

Biden refused to impose sanctions because he didn’t want to provoke Putin.

Only after the UK and other European countries led the way did Biden start providing larger numbers of short range antitank and short range anti-air missiles.

When Ukraine requested medium and long range anti-air, antitank, and anti-ship missiles Biden refused because didn’t want to provoke Putin.

When Poland offered to transfer fighters to Ukraine Biden refuse because Biden didn’t want to provoke Putin.

Still, Biden continues to dither and not lead efforts to supply Ukraine with needed tanks, jets, and medium and long range weapons.

Ukraine was never a threat to Russia. Russia invaded Ukraine. Defending Ukraine is not attacking Russia.

Biden's Deficit Deceit

 

Intellectual Dishonesty

Biden's claims that he has had record deficit reductions is INTELECTUALLY DISHONEST as he is cherry picking a point in time when there was a high deficit due to the pandemic shut down.  In reality, his spending, even with an open economy and Trump's vaccine, has been the highest in recent years AND he wants to spend even more.

Hypocrisy


 

Ineffectual
