["Last week, the White House issued an executive order for command and control of artificial intelligence, strangely invoking the Defense Production Act. President Biden apparently got nervous after watching the latest “Mission: Impossible” movie. Really. Added to the order were a mishmash of unhelpful notions like “advancing equity” and collective bargaining." (more here)]

The germans have become such pussies. Its now a pattern of making all the wrong choices for their citizens. As if no one saw that importing a jillion jihadi goat herders was going to be a problem. -

The “Anne Frank” daycare center in Tangerhütte, which has been operating for generations, is set to undergo a name change. The decision to rename the daycare center, named after the most famous Jewish girl, has sparked controversy.

The idea of changing of name of Frank, who tragically died in a concentration camp at the age of 15, has come from migrant parents, according to the daycare center’s director. “It is reported that parents with migrant backgrounds feel uncertain about the name and find it challenging to explain to their children,” the report said.

If you were to ask me to name the world’s least controversial icons, Anne Frank would be at the top of that list. After two terrifying years of hiding in an attic, she was a child, a mere 15 years old, when the Nazis murdered her in Auschwitz, the most notorious of the Third Reich’s death camps. Anne Frank was the purest of victims at the hands of one of the purest evils the world has ever seen. But…

Some German migrants “find it challenging to explain” Anne Frank “to their children?”

Jezebel, the punchy feminist blog with an outsized influence on internet culture, will suspend operations and lay off its staff effective immediately, its parent company G/O Media said Thursday as it announced broader restructuring in its portfolio of digital news outlets.

Jim Spanfeller, chief executive of G/O Media, said in a memo to staff obtained by CNN that the company had tried to sell the publication, but that after talks with two dozen potential buyers, “we could not find Jez a new home.”

“As of this week we are making the very, very difficult decision to suspend publication of Jezebel,” Spanfeller said.

https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2023/11/13/biden-2024-reelection-challenges-strategy-00126776
Filled with an amazing number of curious statements but the gist of it is that Biden's biggest problem is that he hasn't been able to convince the voters of how good a president he is.
Perhaps it's because the voters all know that everything was so much better when Trump was in office.

So many lies from the eco nuts are being found out yet creepy grampa joe wants to take away your stove, water heater and car based on lies and willful idiots. -

SNP ministers have quietly downgraded their claim that Scotland has a quarter of Europe’s offshore wind potential to just seven per cent, in a major blow to their economic case for independence.

Neil Gray, the Scottish energy secretary, wrote to a Holyrood committee with the revised estimate after SNP ministers were forced to admit that the 25 per cent figure they had used for years was false.

But they agreed to hush up the seven per cent estimate, saying: “No proactive communications are recommended.” This meant that no press release was issued or announcement made when he wrote to Holyrood’s net zero and energy committee in September.

Internal Scottish Government correspondence showed an official warned that it had “never, to my knowledge, been properly sourced”.

In January 2021, another civil servant warned that “we did recycle those figures quite robotically without really checking them”.

Responding to the updated estimate, Liam Kerr, a Scottish Tory MSP, said: “The SNP have been caught out yet again playing fast and loose with Scotland’s offshore energy potential.

“Ministers must be open and honest about giving accurate figures – secrecy and cover-up does the renewables sector no favours. This is yet another example of a government that thinks it can get away with anything.”

But Mr Taylor said this was also misleading as it excluded capacity in the rest of the UK. If the latter was included, Scotland’s 2030 share would fall to 6.8 per cent.

Mr Taylor noted that this calculation also omitted capacity in Norway, which is not in the EU, which would “push Scotland’s share of a genuinely European total down towards six per cent”.

Two weeks ago, 15 black kids stomped a white kid at a Las Vegas magnet high school; the white kid had intervened when a smaller kid was being picked on. There is video. One week ago, the white kid died as a direct result. As of today, no one has even been arrested despite video being available.

Imagine how 15 white kids stomping to death a black kid would be treated by the news industry.

How about some real foreign interference in elections -

"These new documents show yet again that the Sixteen Thirty Fund was the most prolific backer of radical candidates and causes in the 2022 midterm election cycle," Caitlin Sutherland, the executive director of Americans for Public Trust, told Fox News Digital.

"It also appears that foreign national Hansjorg Wyss remains one of their largest single donors, driving a dump truck of cash through the foreign influence loophole and into battleground states across the country," Sutherland said. "This foreshadows the massive foreign-funded leftwing dark money operation we expect will play an outsized role in supporting liberal candidates and causes in 2024."

Arabella Advisors, meanwhile, remained the Sixteen Thirty Fund's top contractor. According to the tax forms, the nonprofit paid Arabella $4.26 million for administrative and operational support.

In addition to the Sixteen Thirty Fund, Arabella Advisors manages several other nonprofits that host dozens of liberal groups, including one that works with the Biden administration on policy. Together, the groups make up America's most prominent dark money network.

The network's web of groups also sits under the New Venture Fund, Windward Fund and Hopewell Fund. A fifth, the North Fund, has also been linked to the network. Each fund is a fiscal sponsor to other nonprofits by providing their tax and legal status to those housed beneath them.

This configuration allows the fiscally-sponsored groups to avoid filing tax records to the IRS, effectively masking their financials and other information. The Arabella-managed nonprofits also do not reveal donor information on their own tax forms, keeping the public in the dark to the full extent of who uses the network as a conduit to fund left-wing initiatives.

In recent years, billions of dollars have flowed through the network to progressive causes nationwide.

Financiers such as Swiss billionaire Hansjörg Wyss and George Soros have funneled cash to groups in the network. The Democracy Alliance, the left's premiere big-money secretive donor club, has also included its funds in past confidential documents regarding where to wire money for specific initiatives

Rampant Racism:
"Boston pays $2.6M to Black police officers who alleged racial bias in hair tests for drug use"

Never proven - just alleged.

"In 2014, the court agreed that the hair test fell disproportionately on Black officers."

That simply means the black officers failed more often that whitey.
Zero evidence was ever offered that the test was not accurate or that black hair somehow will display a positive result more often than white boy hair after the same amount of illegal drug use.
