therightscoop--2020-02-27--WATCH: Dan Crenshaw explains why socialism doesn’t work – in one minute!

Rep. Dan Crenshaw has released a short video explaining why socialism doesn ’ t work .
Take a look : This reminds me of the very arguments Mark Levin would make against the socialist healthcare system Democrats have been trying to foist on America for years , how it would remove incentive for doctors to innovate and thus ruin the greatest healthcare system in the world .
We always think of greed as a bad thing , and excessive greed certainly is bad .
( “ For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil.
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ improve your station and that of your family is at the heart of working , and it alone is great incentive .
As Crenshaw said , that ’ s basic human nature and socialism goes against that nature .
Levin also pointed out how making healthcare a ‘ right ’ makes slave of an entire group of people , which is essentially what Crenshaw was pointing out when he said that socialism forces people to work .
When you make something like healthcare a right , someone has to provide that service because @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ .
And if no one wants to do it – well someone has to do it !
And the government must see to it that they do .
And thus you end up with a crappy healthcare system and a crappy everything else that socialism touches .

This reminds me of the very arguments Mark Levin would make against the socialist healthcare system Democrats have been trying to foist on America for years, how it would remove incentive for doctors to innovate and thus ruin the greatest healthcare system in the world.
We always think of greed as a bad thing, and excessive greed certainly is bad. (“For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil.”) But the notion of trying to improve your station and that of your family is at the heart of working, and it alone is great incentive. As Crenshaw said, that’s basic human nature and socialism goes against that nature.
Levin also pointed out how making healthcare a ‘right’ makes slave of an entire group of people, which is essentially what Crenshaw was pointing out when he said that socialism forces people to work. When you make something like healthcare a right, someone has to provide that service because it’s now a ‘right’. And if no one wants to do it – well someone has to do it! And the government must see to it that they do. And thus you end up with a crappy healthcare system and a crappy everything else that socialism touches.

therightscoop--2020-02-27--Get ready for LGBTQ sex ed discussions in South Carolina…

A South Carolina law that forbids LGBTQ sex ed discussions in the classroom is the subject of a new lawsuit from a Lesbian activist group , which could spell trouble for the law : NBC NEWS – It is against state law in South Carolina for public school sex education classes to mention anything other than heterosexual relationships , unless the talk involves sexually transmitted diseases .
A federal lawsuit now aims to change that .
The National Center for Lesbian Rights and Lambda Legal said their lawsuit filed Wednesday seeks to overturn the Comprehensive Health Education Act of 1988 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ protection clause of the 14th Amendment .
“ The law singles out LGBTQ students for negative treatment , ” a news release introducing the lawsuit said .
“ It prevents LGBTQ students from receiving any health education about their relationships except in the context of sexually transmitted diseases , without imposing any comparable restriction on health education about heterosexual people.
” The law also says that any teacher who allows “ a discussion of alternate sexual lifestyles ” including “ homosexual relationships except in the context of instruction concerning sexually transmitted diseases ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Carolina AG believes the law may not survive the lawsuit : State Superintendent of Education Molly Spearman , named as a defendant in the lawsuit , agrees that the law is on shaky ground .
She requested an opinion on its constitutionality from South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson .
That opinion says “ a court would likely conclude ” that the law violates the equal protection clause requiring that people in similar circumstances be treated the same under the law .
“ I agree with the arguments and evidence presented in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ statement cited by news outlets .
“ I also believe that parents should continue to have the final say in whether or not their child participates in health education curriculum.
” Sex-ed discussions are already far more graphic than they used to be when I was growing up , at least in some states .
I shudder just thinking about the discussions these school children will hear if this lawsuit is ruled unconstitutional and that ruling is upheld .

Democrat activist groups are once again suing the Trump administration for moving more funds from Defense to the building of the Wall : THE HILL – Three groups are suing the Trump administration over a plan to allocate an additional $ 3.8 billion in Department of Defense ( DOD ) funding for the border wall .
“ The president is doubling down on his unlawful scheme to raid taxpayer funds for a xenophobic campaign promise that is destroying national treasures , harming the environment , and desecrating tribal lands , ” said Dror Ladin , an attorney with the American @ @ @ @ @ @ @ The ACLU , along with the Sierra Club and Southern Border Communities Coalition , filed the suit in federal court in California on Friday .
DOD notified Congress this month that it would transfer an additional $ 3.8 billion to be used for the wall .
The notice to Congress said that the money would come from weapons programs like the F-35 fighter jet and would go toward the “ support of higher priority items.
” I know you are thinking you are not surprised by this – nor should you be .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ that the Supreme Court has already ruled against some of these same groups that Trump CAN used reprogrammed money from the Pentagon for the wall .
But as David Horowitz points out , federal judges will still ignore this and issue injunctions anyway : I might as well go ahead and write an article now saying that the Supreme Court has overturned a lower court injunction , allowing Trump to use these funds for the border .
I ’ ll look like I ’ m clairvoyant !

They literally won twice at scotus but this will not stop a third and 4th injunction.

Exciting news for those sick of the woke crap on twitter – a GOP mega-donor is trying to oust Jack Dorsey and he ’ s bought a large stake in the company to do it .

Bloomberg News first reported that Elliott Management has taken a “ sizable stake ” and “ and plans to push for changes at the social media company , including replacing Dorsey ” .
Paul @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Management , is a Republican mega-donor who opposed Donald Trump during the real-estate magnate ’ s run for the presidential nomination but has since come onside .

From the Guardian:
A major Republican donor has purchased a stake in Twitter and is reportedly seeking to oust its chief executive, Jack Dorsey. Bloomberg News first reported that Elliott Management has taken a “sizable stake” and “and plans to push for changes at the social media company, including replacing Dorsey”. Paul Singer, the billionaire founder of Elliott Management, is a Republican mega-donor who opposed Donald Trump during the real-estate magnate’s run for the presidential nomination but has since come onside. After a White House visit in February 2017, Trump said Singer “was very much involved with the anti-Trump or, as they say, ‘Never Trump’, and Paul just left, and he’s given us his total support and it’s all about unification”.
I don’t know if we should get too riled up though. Dude is a businessman. He clearly sees some value in Twitter that he thinks is being undermined by the current woke leadership. That won’t keep liberals from engaging in the stupidest conspiracy theories, of course. Here’s more:

Important UPDATE!!
OK, so we made a mistake. This guy is NOT a Trump friendly investor. He has actually been anti-Trump, but a Republican donor.

These are second graders in the video , so between 7 years and 8 years .

Apparently it was non-binary and transgender reading day in school districts where @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .

How did our society get here ?

We have posted some pretty terrible videos today, and this one is no different. Here’s a video on how to indoctrinate kids into the transgender agenda, brought to you by the National Education Association.
These are second graders in the video, so between 7 years and 8 years. And instead of teaching them math, or English, or science, which our kids are woefully deficient in, they’re being taught how to switch their genders.
Apparently it was non-binary and transgender reading day in school districts where conservatives aren’t paying attention enough.
Here’s more about the propaganda day:
On February 27, thousands of parents, educators, elected officials and allies will join in solidarity with transgender and gender-expansive students by hosting school and community readings of I Am Jazz, a children’s book by transgender teen trailblazer Jazz Jennings, as well as additional titles. The fifth annual Jazz and Friends National Day of School and Community Readings is sponsored by the Welcoming Schools Program at the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Foundation, the nation’s largest lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) civil rights organization, and the National Educational Association (NEA), the country’s largest professional employee organization, representing 3 million educators across the U.S.

JPOST – Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu succeeded in winning 60 seats for his bloc of right-wing and religious parties, one less than he needed for a majority in the Knesset in Monday’s election, according to exit polls on the three television networks.
The exit polls indicated that Netanyahu’s Likud won 36-37 seats. Its allies in Shas, UTJ and Yamina won 9, 7-8 and 6-7. The polls gave Blue and White 33 seats, its ally Labor-Gesher-Meretz 6-7, the Joint List 14-15 and Yisrael Beytenu 6-8.
The numbers were expected to change overnight. The votes of IDF soldiers, who tend to lead to the Right, have not yet been counted and the Joint List tends to go down a seat when the soldiers’ votes are added. But if the Right does not obtain its 61st seat, it could end up being because the far Right Otzma Yehudit party refused Netanyahu’s repeated requests to quit the race.
The outright victory in Israel’s third election in under a year is expected to enable Netanyahu to quickly form a right-wing coalition after heading a caretaker government since December 2018.


therightscoop--2020-03-02--Federal judge orders Hillary Clinton to be deposed by JUDICIAL WATCH!

Judicial Watch just got a big score by a federal judge today who agreed with their request to depose Hillary Clinton under oath over her private email server : What ’ s hilarious is that the judge recognized that Hillary ’ s previous answers to questions about this were terrible : Clinton has argued that she has already answered questions about this and should not have to do so again , but D.C. District Court Judge Royce C. Lamberth said in his ruling that her past responses left much to be desired .
“ As extensive as the existing record @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Secretary Clinton ’ s state of mind when she decided it would be an acceptable practice to set up and use a private server to conduct State Department business , ” Lamberth said .
The judge went on to recognize that while Clinton responded to written questions in a separate case , “ those responses were either incomplete , unhelpful , or cursory at best .
Simply put her responses left many more questions than answers.
” Lamberth said that using written questions this time “ will only muddle any understanding of Secretary @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fail to capture the full picture , this delaying the final disposition of this case even further.
” More emails were uncovered a few months ago that had previously been undisclosed : The ruling comes after Judicial Watch revealed at a December 2019 status conference that the FBI released “ approximately thirty previously undisclosed Clinton emails , ” and that the State Department “ failed to fully explain ” where they came from .
The State Department has been pushing for the discovery phase of the case to come to a close , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to do so , saying that “ there is still more to learn.
” “ There is still more to learn ” is likely a huge understatement .
But I do like that this judge recognizes that Hillary and her team have given poor explanations for this and isn ’ t willing to just let her off the hook like Comey .

Judicial Watch just got a big score by a federal judge today who agreed with their request to depose Hillary Clinton under oath over her private email server:
FOX NEWS – A federal judge Monday granted a request from conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch to have former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton sit for a sworn deposition to answer questions about her use of a private email server to conduct government business.
What’s hilarious is that the judge recognized that Hillary’s previous answers to questions about this were terrible:
Clinton has argued that she has already answered questions about this and should not have to do so again, but D.C. District Court Judge Royce C. Lamberth said in his ruling that her past responses left much to be desired. “As extensive as the existing record is, it does not sufficiently explain Secretary Clinton’s state of mind when she decided it would be an acceptable practice to set up and use a private server to conduct State Department business,” Lamberth said. The judge went on to recognize that while Clinton responded to written questions in a separate case, “those responses were either incomplete, unhelpful, or cursory at best. Simply put her responses left many more questions than answers.” Lamberth said that using written questions this time “will only muddle any understanding of Secretary Clinton’s state of mind and fail to capture the full picture, this delaying the final disposition of this case even further.”
More emails were uncovered a few months ago that had previously been undisclosed:

The State Department has been pushing for the discovery phase of the case to come to a close, but Lamberth said he is not ready to do so, saying that “there is still more to learn.”
“There is still more to learn” is likely a huge understatement. But I do like that this judge recognizes that Hillary and her team have given poor explanations for this and isn’t willing to just let her off the hook like Comey.


therightscoop--2020-03-04--NY POST EDITORIAL: Turkey is triggering new crisis that could mean the end of European Union

I know it ’ s election night around the US , but I wanted to post this analysis from the New York Post on what ’ s going on in Europe .
We told you last week that Erdogan had announced he would begin flooding Europe with Syrian refugees .
It has begun and the NY Post Editorial Board fears it could mean the end of Europe : Turkish tyrant Recep Tayyip Erdogan is only trying to blackmail the European Union with his latest let-loose-the-refugees ploy — but he could end up destroying it .
On Friday , Ankara announced @ @ @ @ @ @ @ borders with Europe , thereby letting potentially millions of refugees and asylum-seekers from Syria and beyond head for the EU via Greece .
Erdogan is eager for Western help as his forces battle the Syrian army near Idlib — the last rebel-held stronghold .
Turkey has gone on the offensive after an airstrike ( likely Russian ) killed 33 Turkish soldiers last Thursday .
Turkey is winning that battle — but Russia might intervene to turn the tide .
Either way , the fighting has pushed more Syrian civilians toward Turkey , and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ million refugees ) opted to pass the problem on to the EU .
But Greece refuses to let them in : It has suspended all asylum applications for a month and vowed to deport all illegal entrants .
Already , thousands of migrants have clashed violently with Greek riot police wielding tear gas , batons , stun grenades and rubber bullets — and Athens says it will start using live ammo next .
Other refugees are trying the sea route ; a small child died when a dinghy full of migrants capsized Monday @ @ @ @ @ @ @ actions , but Athens refuses to be overwhelmed — and the rest of Europe doesn ’ t want a return of the 2015 refugee crisis , either : It ’ s still feeling the aftershocks , including the rise of anti-immigration parties , as well as Brexit .
Italy is already struggling with the Coronavirus : All this , when overall EU leadership is at its weakest in decades : Britain is gone , Germany ’ s Angela Merkel is on her way out with no clear successor and France ’ s Emmanuel @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It doesn ’ t help that the EU never settled its own refugee policies after 2015 : It just bribed Erdogan into enforcing its own borders — and now he ’ s demanding a bigger bribe .
It may be as simple as sending Erdogan the Patriot missiles he wants to fend off Russian planes , or it may require Europe to finally figure out how to settle some refugees without inviting another flood , but the EU can ’ t get out of this one via its usual answer — kicking the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the EU ’ s destabilization in 2015 when he flooded the region with migrants .
Germany rolled over and accepted millions of refugees without putting up a fight .
As the NY Post points out , that led to the rise of anti-immigration parties in Europe which led to Brexit .
Now Erdogan appears to be going for the knockout blow if he doesn ’ t get what he wants .
We ’ ve written on Erdogan quite a lot over the years , how he crushed his enemies in his own country @ @ @ @ @ @ @ appears he ’ s trying to crush his regional enemies too .
Erdogan ’ s neo-Ottoman Empire dream is becoming a reality .
The eighth kingdom of Revelation 17 is resurrecting .
Buckle up .

I know it’s election night around the US, but I wanted to post this analysis from the New York Post on what’s going on in Europe. We told you last week that Erdogan had announced he would begin flooding Europe with Syrian refugees. It has begun and the NY Post Editorial Board fears it could mean the end of the EU:
Turkish tyrant Recep Tayyip Erdogan is only trying to blackmail the European Union with his latest let-loose-the-refugees ploy — but he could end up destroying it. On Friday, Ankara announced it was opening its land and sea borders with Europe, thereby letting potentially millions of refugees and asylum-seekers from Syria and beyond head for the EU via Greece. Erdogan is eager for Western help as his forces battle the Syrian army near Idlib — the last rebel-held stronghold. Turkey has gone on the offensive after an airstrike (likely Russian) killed 33 Turkish soldiers last Thursday. Turkey is winning that battle — but Russia might intervene to turn the tide. Either way, the fighting has pushed more Syrian civilians toward Turkey, and Erdogan (whose nation already hosts 3.5 million refugees) opted to pass the problem on to the EU.
Greece is putting up a fight:
But Greece refuses to let them in: It has suspended all asylum applications for a month and vowed to deport all illegal entrants. Already, thousands of migrants have clashed violently with Greek riot police wielding tear gas, batons, stun grenades and rubber bullets — and Athens says it will start using live ammo next. Other refugees are trying the sea route; a small child died when a dinghy full of migrants capsized Monday. EU law forbids Greece’s actions, but Athens refuses to be overwhelmed — and the rest of Europe doesn’t want a return of the 2015 refugee crisis, either: It’s still feeling the aftershocks, including the rise of anti-immigration parties, as well as Brexit.
Italy is already struggling with the Coronavirus:
Indeed, a fresh wave of refugees could push Italy over the brink: Coronavirus has already shut down much of its most productive regions, and Rome isn’t that far from fiscal problems that could make the Greek debt crisis of 2007-8 look mild.
EU is already weak:
All this, when overall EU leadership is at its weakest in decades: Britain is gone, Germany’s Angela Merkel is on her way out with no clear successor and France’s Emmanuel Macron is deeply unpopular at home. It doesn’t help that the EU never settled its own refugee policies after 2015: It just bribed Erdogan into enforcing its own borders — and now he’s demanding a bigger bribe. It may be as simple as sending Erdogan the Patriot missiles he wants to fend off Russian planes, or it may require Europe to finally figure out how to settle some refugees without inviting another flood, but the EU can’t get out of this one via its usual answer — kicking the can down the road.
Erdogan began the EU’s destabilization in 2015 when he flooded the region with migrants. Germany rolled over and accepted millions of refugees without putting up a fight. As the NY Post points out, that led to the rise of anti-immigration parties in Europe which led to Brexit. Now Erdogan appears to be going for the knockout blow if he doesn’t get what he wants.
We’ve written on Erdogan quite a lot over the years, how he crushed his enemies in his own country to seize power. And now it appears he’s trying to crush his regional enemies too. Erdogan’s neo-Ottoman Empire dream is becoming a reality. The eighth kingdom of Revelation 17 is resurrecting. Buckle up.


therightscoop--2020-03-03--WATCH: Donna Brazile angrily tells RNC Chairwoman to “GO TO HELL” on Fox News

This clip might just get your feathers ruffled and for good reason .
Today in an interview on Fox News , Donna Brazile actually told RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniels to “ go to hell ” : This coming from Brazile is responding to an earlier clip of McDaniels , who was asked about the Democratic race for president and conjectured that if it becomes a brokered convention , DNC superdelegates will rig the process against Bernie .
We all know this is true because Democrats are deathly afraid of losing to Trump for a second time .
And it ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ t cheated to work against Bernie in the past .
Just ask Hillary and her buddy Debbie Wasserman Schultz .
Brazile responded with outrage , telling McDaniel to stay that “ hell out of our race ” and then proceeded to tell McDaniels to “ go to hell ” .
Fox News hosts Ed Henry and Sandra Smith both reacted with “ whoa , ” but before they could interject more Brazile doubled down and said “ No , go to hell !
I ’ m tired of it Ed !
” What @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Ronna was using Russian talking points .
Democrats like Brazile are still clinging to this debunked collusion garbage when in reality it ’ s life-long Democrats like James Carville and Chris Matthews who are the ones coming out against Bernie so hard .
McDaniel is only saying what most people think will happen because we all know Bernie doesn ’ t stand a hay bale ’ s chance against the torch that is Donald Trump .
Further , there is hardly anything more loathsome than telling someone to “ go to hell ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ all curses to wish upon someone and I hate it .
I ’ ve always hated it and I hope Fox News fires Brazile for this .
This is quite simply unacceptable and no suspension will be good enough in my opinion .

Fox News hosts Ed Henry and Sandra Smith both reacted with “whoa,” but before they could interject more Brazile doubled down and said “No, go to hell! I’m tired of it Ed!”
What lit my candle was the accusation that Ronna was using Russian talking points. Democrats like Brazile are still clinging to this debunked collusion garbage when in reality it’s life-long Democrats like James Carville and Chris Matthews who are the ones coming out against Bernie so hard. McDaniel is only saying what most people think will happen because we all know Bernie doesn’t stand a hay bale’s chance against the torch that is Donald Trump.
Further, there is hardly anything more loathsome than telling someone to “go to hell”. It’s the worst of all curses to wish upon someone and I hate it. I’ve always hated it and I hope Fox News fires Brazile for this. This is quite simply unacceptable and no suspension will be good enough in my opinion.

The latest delegate count out this morning from the Associated Press shows Biden ahead by 65 delegates:
Next Tuesday is another day where we have multiple states voting in the Democratic primaries. Below is what the rest of March looks like, including next Tuesday:
Michigan is the biggest catch next Tuesday and there have only been two polls this year in the state. The one from about three weeks ago shows Sanders +9, but the one from last week shows Biden +6. But all that may change now with many candidates dropping out. If people go with candidate endorsements, it could mean Biden takes it easily.
Washington State is next in line and Bernie is an average +8 there.
But notices what is coming a week later? Florida with 218 delegates. According to polls, Biden is dominating there with an average of +37.5 ahead. He may just get most, if not all of the delegates and that could be a significant blow to Bernie’s campaign. His Castro comments will not do him well there.

This is bad. Mike Lee is going into self-quarantine after Rand Paul tested positive for coronavirus.
It might have to do with this:
Apparently DOCTOR Rand Paul didn’t quite get the (obvious) message that everyone must self-quarantine while awaiting results of a #COVID19 test. Completely defeats the point of testing if that’s not done. https://t.co/KdCz8MU3b8 — Daniel Goldman (@danielsgoldman) March 22, 2020
BUT, Rand Paul is calling her out for the deceptive implication that he went to the gym after being diagnosed.
We want to be clear, Senator Paul left the Senate IMMEDIATELY upon learning of his diagnosis. He had zero contact with anyone & went into quarantine. Insinuations such as those below that he went to the gym after learning of his results are just completely false & irresponsible! https://t.co/yqfxydsXBG — Senator Rand Paul (@RandPaul) March 22, 2020
It would definitely have been irresponsible to have contact with others after testing positive, and a ton of people are dunking on Paul based on the false reporting.
BUT, aside from that, we know that it can passed on even before someone is showing symptoms. So. This is still a problem.
This dude basically works in the country’s biggest nursing home for millionaires that happen to make all the most important decisions for the greatest country in the world. I guess it was only a matter of time.

Lost actor Daniel Dae Kim is touting hydroxychloroquine as ‘crucial’ to his recovery from the coronavirus and in just a few days he can stop his quarantine and see his family again:
Kim says his doctor gave him a drug cocktail which included Tamiflu (anti-viral), azithromycin (anti-biotic), and an inhaler to help with his breathing. But he considers the secret weapon in his drug cocktail to be hydroxychloroquine.
He doesn’t comment on his dosage because he said it was tailored specifically to him, but did say that it was when he began running a fever that he contacted his doctor and began taking these medications.
He is now feeling much better and counts himself as another of those cases that are considered to be anecdotal evidence of hydroxychloroquine’s success against coronavirus.

WATCH: Mark Levin explains how the president has more power than people realize to order states to open up their economies…

Here’s more from Fox News:
Conservative radio host Mark Levin fired back on “Hannity” Thursday at governors who claim they have the sole power to decide what businesses they can close and what restrictions they can put on their populations. “The governors have shut down the economy, not the president — the governors have put people out of work, not the president,” Levin said. “The governors have shut businesses, not the president, and several of them are dragging their feet. … These states do not have plenary police power when they affect interstate commerce — $2.2 trillion in federal spending to deal with what they’ve done. 22 million people filing for unemployment compensation: This has a national ‘interstate’ effect.”
The Commerce Clause of the Constitution…
The “Life, Liberty & Levin” host explained that the Commerce Clause of the Constitution gives Congress the power to “regulate commerce … among the several States” and added that the New Deal era saw Supreme Court rulings that further strengthened the federal executive’s authority over the states. “The debate about federalism was a fake debate and I’ve given this a lot of thought,” Levin said. “This has nothing to do with federalism. The president has more power to order governors, if he chooses, to open up their economies than people think. “States have the power to regulate commerce within their boundaries, but the Congress under the federal Constitution is the only body that has the power to regulate interstate commerce,” Levin went on. “Governors, through their dictates and their fiats of what’s essential and not essential, shutting down businesses — that’s the ultimate regulation. If it affects interstate commerce in a very negative way, the president can in fact enforce the interstate Commerce Clause of the Constitution, where governors do not have the power to control interstate commerce. “The state’s police powers do not extend to interfering with interstate commerce,” Levin continued. “The clause was explicitly put in the federal Constitution to promote commerce nationwide.” “It’s absurd to say the president has no power,” the host of the “Mark Levin Show” on radio emphasized.
Levin makes clear that this is not a federalism issue. This is authority give to the president via the constitution. He’s not saying Trump has ‘total’ control as Trump suggested, but when it comes to interstate commerce Levin suggests Trump has a lot of authority. Watch the video for more…


therightscoop--2020-04-19--Ted Cruz bashes Harvard over insane article calling for a ban on homeschooling

Oh boy is this insane .
SO some fancy schmancy Harvard lady wrote this insane article calling for a ban on homeschooling because kids are really the property of the government and the parents are just getting in the way of statist indoctrination .
I ’ m only embellishing a tiny bit .
Well Ted Cruz isn ’ t down with that at all : It does seem like the relief bill was yet the latest example of incompetent government doing what it does worst .
Harvard is just one example of an institution that really did not need more @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , but this insanity really forces the issue : The thread is worth reading because of the extreme position that Elizabeth Bartholet takes .
Do we really want the people who bungle nearly every job they ’ re given to have complete and total control of our children too ?
I don ’ t think so and God bless people like Ted Cruz who are in positions of power and can sound the alarm against this kind of crap .
I mean just look at this : They can ’ t even spell @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Bible is to blame for kids doing what exactly ?
Not playing outside enough ?
The image makes zero sense , but actually I ’ d prefer nonsense to the ideological totalitarianism that Bartholet advocates in the article itself .
Meanwhile every idiot on the fringe of the right-wing side of things is made to be representative of the entire movement by the media…

At the same time that Harvard—w/ a $41bn endowment—indefensibly gets $9mm in taxpayer-funded coronavirus “relief,” they publish a cover story attacking home-schooling & people of faith.

I’m glued to the NFL draft like most other sports fans, but it just reminds me how immoral the football syndicate is.

Yes, immoral. So terrible. Those poor people. Systemic racism and institutional discrimination. Let us all self-flagellate for wokeness, yea yea.

Trump rails about fake news all the time and this is exactly what he ’ s talking about : It @ @ @ @ @ ’ s all lies .

Trump rails about fake news all the time and this is exactly what he’s talking about:

It’s disgusting and it’s all lies. Trump NEVER told anyone to inject bleach or lysol or anything else into their bodies. It NEVER happened.
Yet we have both Nicole Wallace and Nancy Pelosi still lying about this. Again, watch for yourself:

Clearly Trump wasn’t beings sarcastic like he claimed. He’s musing about possibilities that he wants his scientists to look into – if they are even possible. But he NEVER suggested that anyone drink bleach or inject it or any other disinfectant in their bodies or lungs. It’s all lies, it’s all fake news, and both Wallace and Pelosi should be ashamed of themselves.

At the White House today Trump took a few questions from the media and one from a Yahoo News reporter who claimed that South Korea was doing five times more testing than the US. This is how it began:
REPORTER: South Korea has done 5 times more tests than the US per capita. Why is that? TRUMP: I don't think that's true R: That is true, and you said the US passed South Korea in virus testing T: I don't think that's true. Who are you with?

Trump said he didn’t think it was true but the reporter insisted it was and wouldn’t back down.
Later on, Dr. Birx came back with the numbers that showed that we are doing 6 more tests per 100k than South Korea, and that’s when Trump laid into the reporter for getting his facts wrong:

The Yahoo reporter didn’t even seem to care that he’d gotten it wrong. Incredulous to the end!
On a side note, it is funny to see the dichotomy between how combative Trump is versus how delicate Dr. Birx is saying “just check it again.” I’m not blaming Trump, just noting the stark difference. Trump is clearly tired of the fake news from reporters, especially when they obstinate like this guy.


therightscoop--2020-04-28--Jonathan Turley SLAMS the media and Democrats for deafening silence on Tara Reade and Joe biden

Jonathan Turley is out today with a terrific article exposing the staggering hypocrisy by the media and senior Democrats when it comes to the sexual assault allegations against Joe Biden versus their very vocal advocacy of the phony allegations against Kavanaugh : The Washington Post is facing intense criticism over a headline on the sexual assault allegation against former Vice President Joe Biden by former Senate aide Tara Reade .
Various witnesses have come forward to support Reade by saying that she told them of the assault in the 1990s and a new clip has emerged on CNN of Reade @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Larry King Live in 1993 .
The Washington Post , which had exhaustive and hard-hitting coverage of the allegations against Justice Brett Kavanaugh , crafted one of the most convoluted headlines humanly possible : “ Developments in allegations against Biden amplify efforts to question his behavior.
” Unlike the Kavanaugh stories , the headline focused the story on efforts to discredit Biden as opposed to the assault allegation by Reade .
The headline was seen by critics of the double standard being applied to the Biden allegation .
It raises similar objections to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ protecting Bill Clinton from an array women alleging everything from sexual harassment to rape .
A more obvious headline would be “ Two Additional Witnesses Come Forward To Support Biden Accuser.
” “ The disconnect with the Kavanaugh coverage is quite extraordinary… ” There has been an almost universal spin in the media to portray the Biden allegation as a political story of how Republicans are seeking to use the story against him .
There is a true element to that story .
However , the disconnect with the Kavanaugh coverage is quite @ @ @ @ @ @ @ either the headlines or the stories .
The disconnect is even more striking among Democratic leaders .
I previously wrote on the position of Democratic senators , before Christine Blasey Ford even testified , that they believed her and opposed Kavanaugh .
That was an allegation from high school that had not been previously voiced in public .
Yet , Democratic senator denounced anyone who did not believe Ford based solely on her account .
Sen. Mazie Hirono , D-Hawaii , declared that all men need to “ shut up ” and just @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Pelosi , who just endorsed Biden yesterday , attacked those who did not simply accept the word of Ford : “ Senate Republicans chose to send a clear message to all women : do not speak out , and if you do – do not expect to be heard , believed or respected.
” Reade specifically struck out at Sen. Kamala Harris ( D. , Cal . )
, who was one of the most vocal politicians demanding that Ford ’ s allegations be accepted and Kavanaugh rejected .
Reade stated “ Kamala @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out to her for help .
No response.
” At the time ( and today with regard to the Biden accusations ) I was concerned about the lack of a presumption of innocence before any testimony had even occurred .
After telling all men everywhere to “ shut up ” and just stand with Ford , Hirano was pressed on whether Kavanaugh has “ the same presumption of innocence as anyone else in America ?
” For most people , the question would be an easy one to answer in the affirmative , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ she would afford Kavanaugh this core presumption of the rule of law .
She said that she would “ put his denial in the context of everything that I know about him in terms of how he approaches his cases.
” She said that she would consider his “ ideological agenda ” and her view that “ he very much is against women ’ s reproductive choice.
” Once again , I have always maintained that women need to be heard and taken seriously in raising these allegations .
I have also objected @ @ @ @ @ @ @ process and simply accept accusations without investigation .
Notably , while most are remaining silent and refusing to respond to media inquiries , some Democrats are now adopting that approach and , rather than saying that Reade must be believed , they are now saying that she must be heard .
Biden supporter Alyssa Milano tweeted out “ I hear and see you , Tara.
” She notably did not say “ I believe you , ” in sharp contrast with the Ford allegation .
During the Kavanaugh hearing , some of us @ @ @ @ @ @ @ allegations as per se dispositive .
However , there is no denying the fact that the many in media and the Democratic leadership have , again , adopted a sharply different approach to a story where a leading Democrat is accused of sexual assault .
There was no equivocation and circumspection during the Kavanaugh controversy .
The spin is staggering and the silence is deafening .
I would only add to what Turley said about the Milano tweet that she did so after 1am in the morning when most had already disappeared from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about the staggering hypocrisy on display by the media and Democrats .
It ’ s beyond blatant .
Yet I doubt anyone in the media will listen or give him the time of day to discuss this on their shows .
They must keep their silence on this until after election day .

Here’s what Turley writes:
The Washington Post is facing intense criticism over a headline on the sexual assault allegation against former Vice President Joe Biden by former Senate aide Tara Reade. Various witnesses have come forward to support Reade by saying that she told them of the assault in the 1990s and a new clip has emerged on CNN of Reade’s mother raising the controversy on Larry King Live in 1993. The Washington Post, which had exhaustive and hard-hitting coverage of the allegations against Justice Brett Kavanaugh, crafted one of the most convoluted headlines humanly possible: “Developments in allegations against Biden amplify efforts to question his behavior.” Unlike the Kavanaugh stories, the headline focused the story on efforts to discredit Biden as opposed to the assault allegation by Reade. The headline was seen by critics of the double standard being applied to the Biden allegation. It raises similar objections to how Democratic leaders and commentators spent years protecting Bill Clinton from an array women alleging everything from sexual harassment to rape. A more obvious headline would be “Two Additional Witnesses Come Forward To Support Biden Accuser.”
“The disconnect with the Kavanaugh coverage is quite extraordinary…”
There has been an almost universal spin in the media to portray the Biden allegation as a political story of how Republicans are seeking to use the story against him. There is a true element to that story. However, the disconnect with the Kavanaugh coverage is quite extraordinary. There was little equivocation in either the headlines or the stories. The disconnect is even more striking among Democratic leaders. I previously wrote on the position of Democratic senators, before Christine Blasey Ford even testified, that they believed her and opposed Kavanaugh. That was an allegation from high school that had not been previously voiced in public. Yet, Democratic senator denounced anyone who did not believe Ford based solely on her account. Sen. Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii, declared that all men need to “shut up” and just believe women allegedly assaults. Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who just endorsed Biden yesterday, attacked those who did not simply accept the word of Ford: “Senate Republicans chose to send a clear message to all women: do not speak out, and if you do – do not expect to be heard, believed or respected.” Reade specifically struck out at Sen. Kamala Harris (D., Cal.), who was one of the most vocal politicians demanding that Ford’s allegations be accepted and Kavanaugh rejected. Reade stated “Kamala Harris is my representative and I reached out to her for help. No response.”
“Presumption of innocence…”
At the time (and today with regard to the Biden accusations) I was concerned about the lack of a presumption of innocence before any testimony had even occurred. After telling all men everywhere to “shut up” and just stand with Ford, Hirano was pressed on whether Kavanaugh has “the same presumption of innocence as anyone else in America?” For most people, the question would be an easy one to answer in the affirmative, Hirono demurred and declined to say that she would afford Kavanaugh this core presumption of the rule of law. She said that she would “put his denial in the context of everything that I know about him in terms of how he approaches his cases.” She said that she would consider his “ideological agenda” and her view that “he very much is against women’s reproductive choice.” Once again, I have always maintained that women need to be heard and taken seriously in raising these allegations. I have also objected to those who would toss aside due process and simply accept accusations without investigation. Notably, while most are remaining silent and refusing to respond to media inquiries, some Democrats are now adopting that approach and, rather than saying that Reade must be believed, they are now saying that she must be heard. Biden supporter Alyssa Milano tweeted out “I hear and see you, Tara.” She notably did not say “I believe you,” in sharp contrast with the Ford allegation. During the Kavanaugh hearing, some of us were slammed for not treating the Ford allegations as per se dispositive. However, there is no denying the fact that the many in media and the Democratic leadership have, again, adopted a sharply different approach to a story where a leading Democrat is accused of sexual assault. There was no equivocation and circumspection during the Kavanaugh controversy. The spin is staggering and the silence is deafening.
I would only add to what Turley said about the Milano tweet that she did so after 1am in the morning when most had already disappeared from the Twitterverse:
I’m aware of the new developments in Tara Reade’s accusation against Joe Biden. I want Tara, like every other survivor, to have the space to be heard and seen without being used as fodder. I hear and see you, Tara. #MeToo — Alyssa Milano (@Alyssa_Milano) April 28, 2020
Turley is absolutely right about the staggering hypocrisy on display by the media and Democrats. It’s beyond blatant. Yet I doubt anyone in the media will listen or give him the time of day to discuss this on their shows. They must keep their silence on this until after election day.
