For babies with disabilities, “humane choice” is abortion says pro-choicer

Pro-choice author Frances Ryan claims aborting disabled babies is “the humane choice”: “There are times when abortion is the humane choice… It’s okay to say that out loud. The thought doesn’t suggest a disabled life is worth less, but acknowledges the extra time, energy, and money a severely disabled life needs.” Click for Full Text!

'Science' as insanity?

The notion that "what works" to cure disease, build sewer systems, raise animals, etc., is "empirical science" has typified the West for hundreds of years. Likewise, the notion that "what is good for humans is the primary duty of medicine" resulted from the Christian doctrine that caused humanity to "reproduce and master the environment" over which God gave us dominion: we manage our animals and plants.

Why People Move from Blue States: It's Not Just High Taxes
Post Date: 2023-02-12 20:41:16 by Charles_Byrd

Defenders of high state taxes like to point out that surveys find few high-net-worth households move primarily to lower their tax bills. This may be so, but it misses the point: high-income, high-net-worth households don't move away from high tax states if they're getting fair value for their taxes. But if services and infrastructure are crumbling around them even as their taxes keep ratcheting higher, then the benefits of moving become much more compelling. In other words, if you're getting good value for your high taxes, then high taxes are not sufficient motivation to move. The problem is not high taxes per se, any more than a high cost of living is the reason to move from a ...
What the Medicare data from Connecticut tells us

If we want to settle the debate as to whether the vaccines are safe or not, the authorities should show us the data. Sadly, no one in the mainstream medical community is calling for data transparency. In the meantime, I was able to obtain a dump of death-vax data from the Medicare database for Connecticut.

Pro-abortionists fear the “danger” of life-affirming ultrasounds

Over the years, one of my daughters has played a key role at a local Women Helping Center including serving as president of the board. If anyone would know the crucial importance of ultrasounds, it would be her and the staff. By making concrete what to a woman facing an untimely pregnancy is essentially an abstraction, ultrasounds dramatically change the decision- making calculus. By slowing down the rush to death, ultrasounds offer an abortion-prone woman (or girl) a chance to catch her breath and calm her nerves. Which is why, of course, pro-abortionists loathe women helping center in general, ultrasounds in particular. Click for Full Text!

The Roman Catholic Diocese of San Diego said Friday it may declare bankruptcy in the coming months as it faces "staggering" legal costs in dealing with some 400 lawsuits alleging priests and others sexually abused children. In a letter that was expected to be shared with parishioners this weekend, Bishop Robert McElroy said the cases were filed after California lifted a statute of limitations on childhood sexual abuse claims.

Authorities in Amsterdam are investigating an antisemitic "projection" on the house Anne Frank hid in during World War II, now a museum that honors her. According to the museum's website, the projection saying "Ann Frank [sic], inventor of the ballpoint pen" was displayed on its building for a few minutes Monday night, with footage of the incident broadcast in a private Telegram group in the U.S. Click for Full Text!
Pence Subpoena Could Set up Fight over Executive Privilege

The subpoena to former Vice President Mike Pence is a milestone moment in an ongoing Justice Department special counsel investigation. But it doesn't guarantee he's going to be testifying before a grand jury anytime soon. Pence is the latest official in former President Donald Trump's administration to be subpoenaed as part of the investigation into efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election, but the push for Pence's testimony is unique because he's the highest-ranking official known to have been summoned.

Hunter Biden enlisted the help of then-Vice President Joe Biden's national security adviser, Colin Kahl, in a scheme to assist a Serbian business partner in becoming secretary-general of the United Nations, the Washington Free Beacon outlined in a report. In July 2016, Hunter arranged a meeting for Vuk Jeremic and Kahl, who is now the under secretary of defense for policy at the Pentagon. Jeremic, an energy executive and former Serbian foreign affairs minister, was looking at the time for American support in an upcoming vote to become secretary- general of the U.N. Jeremic recounted that Kahl "promised" to find out more about the U.N. election. Click for Full Text!

In 1828, utopian socialist Robert Owen is supposed to have remarked to his business associate William Allen, “All the world is queer save thee and me, and even thou art a little queer.” For obvious reasons, today we substitute mad or crazy for queer in that quotation, but the meaning remains the same. And despite Owen’s strange political beliefs, this quote does concisely summarize the state we now find ourselves in. Click for Full Text!
Assessing U.S.-China Relations in the Aftermath of the Spy Balloon

The utterly humiliating saga of a high-altitude Chinese surveillance “balloon” successfully traversing the entire North American continent, only to be shot down off the South Carolina coast after completing its intelligence-gathering voyage, ought to serve as a wake-up call for America’s decadent ruling class. At Newsweek, Paul du Quenoy sagely compared the affair to the young West German pilot Mathias Rust’s successful 1987 landing of his small Cessna just outside Moscow’s Red Square, a similarly “irreparable blight” wherein a “sclerotic empire’s air defense systems stood powerless at the sight of an airborne foreign intruder.” That ...

The Grand Ballroom at Mar-a-Lago is fit for a sovereign. Rows of chandeliers hang beneath the ornate ceiling of a room, washed with gold and crystal, that would put a smile on the face of the Sun King. I was there the night Donald Trump took the stage, flanked by American flags and shimmering cream curtains, to announce his intent to capture the White House again in 2024. The gilded room was packed with a crowd whose thunderous cheers and applause frequently interrupted Trump’s unusually sedate and somber rhetoric. But then he mentioned his signature promise to build a wall between the U.S. and Mexico. “We built the wall,” he said, “we built the wall. We completed the ...

Legislation has been introduced both in Congress and state legislatures that, if enacted, would be a significant step toward pushing back against — and ultimately abolishing — the unconstitutional and unaccountable Federal Reserve System. In Congress, H.R. 24, the “Federal Reserve Transparency Act of 2023,” has been introduced. Sponsored by U.S. Representative Thomas Massie (R-Ky.), the bill is currently cosponsored by 53 other representatives. Click for Full Text!
After Tyre Nichols Killing, It's Once Again Time To Build a Bipartisan Movement for Police Reform

A late acquaintance offered the following scenario to determine a person's fundamental attitudes. Let's say we happen upon police officers beating a suspect. We know nothing about the incident beyond what we're witnessing. Is our gut instinct outrage at the smackdown—or do we figure the cops must be in the right and the suspect no doubt is getting what he deserves? As someone who generally distrusts government authority and has covered several troubling police-use-of-force incidents, you can probably guess where I'd come down. But I know people who have been victims of violent crime and seem more likely to side with the police. Typically, people tend to make snap ...
Review: Mother Country Radicals Spotlights the Weather Underground

There have been few satisfyingly in-depth chronicles of the inner workings of Weather Underground, the leftist group active in the late 1960s and 1970s that claimed to fight U.S. imperialistic violence around the world with violence at home. This rarity is likely because the chief players indeed lived "underground" to evade law enforcement. Fifty years later, a new podcast, Mother Country Radicals, aims to deliver a more thorough history of the gang. Two of the Weather Underground's most notorious members, Bernardine Dohrn and Bill Ayers, had children, one of whom happens to be this podcast's host. Zayd Ayers Dohrn thus has a uniquely intimate, and uniquely cozy, view of ...
