WASHINGTON -- First lady Jill Biden underwent a medical procedure Thursday to flush out debris from a puncture wound on her left foot, her spokesperson said. Michael LaRosa said Jill Biden's foot was punctured while she walking on a beach in Hawaii last weekend, but it was "unclear what object caused the puncture." After the procedure at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland, LaRosa said, "The wound is now clean, free of infection and it is anticipated that it will heal nicely." President Joe Biden joined his wife at Walter Reed for the procedure. The Bidens returned to the White House Thursday night.

America is not covid kindergarten
4 replies
Leana S. Wen, a physician and former Public Health Commissioner for the City of Baltimore, wrote a piece in the Washington Post demanding that we put on masks.
Her tone was such that I am sure the S stands for Sister Mary Elephant, the Catholic teacher Cheech and Chong mocked in the 1970s.
She took the kindergarten approach in threatening group punishment because a few people have exercised their right not to be vaccinated.
The banality of our destructors

In the movie "Ghost Busters," Gozer commands them to choose the form of their destructor. They chose the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.
We chose his brain.(snip)The problem with the Biden administration is not the Biden part but with the administration part. Jen Psaki is the face of the hacks and unemployable nephews who are running the show. As press secretary, she has somehow managed to p*** off the largest gathering of Marxist reporters since the Soviet Union fell.
Her performance is so poor that I wonder if that is the plan. Maybe Democrats tire of having their butts kissed. Lipstick-stained underwear is hard to explain to the wife. Ask Bill Clinton

Ashli Babbitt’s Mom Speaks
17 replies
The only video Ashli Babbitt’s mom has seen of her daughter on January 6 is a clip of her walking from Donald Trump’s speech to Capitol Hill. “That brings me peace,” Micki Witthoeft, Ashli’s mom, told me by phone on Wednesday. “She was in her zone, so happy, having a great day.”
“Until that s**-of-a-b**** shot her.”
Nearly seven months after a United States Capitol Police officer shot Ashli Babbitt in the Capitol building on January 6, the government and subservient corporate news media still refuse to confirm the name of the federal officer who killed her. (Investigative journalist Paul Sperry recently reported the shooter likely is USCP Lt. Michael Byrd.)
The Delta variant is much more contagious, more likely to break through protections afforded by the vaccines and may cause more severe disease than all other known versions of the virus, according to an internal presentation circulated within the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Dr. Rochelle P. Walensky, the director of the agency, acknowledged on Tuesday that vaccinated people with so-called breakthrough infections of the Delta variant carry just as much virus in the nose and throat as unvaccinated people, and may spread it just as readily, if less often.
The Art of Wanting Less

There are some practical steps we can take to get more out of life than what money can buy.“The secret of happiness, you see, is not found in seeking more, but in developing the capacity to enjoy less.” –Socrates
I had always loved to shop. A lot. I could spend a whole Saturday going from store to store without stopping. In fact, some of my earliest memories are of happily shopping the day away with my Grandma Wittebort in downtown Morgantown, West Virginia.
The roots run deep.
Macy’s, Dillards, Pottery Barn, Banana Republic, J.Crew—I frequented them all. In fact, I shopped at Anthropologie so often that the sales ladies greeted me by name,
Border officers are releasing illegal immigrants who test positive for COVID-19 to a nonprofit organization, Texas authorities said this week.
The immigrants were handed over to the Catholic Charities of The Rio Grande Valley, which arranged for their stay in a La Joya, Texas, hotel that it had rented out entirely, La Joya police officials said.
“We did not know this. No one told the city of La Joya. No one told the police department that these people were here. And no one told us that these people were possibly ill,” La Joya Sgt. Manuel Casas told reporters at a July 27 press conference.
Volunteers who served at a detention facility for underaged illegal aliens blew the whistle on Wednesday about an alleged plot to cover up the true number of cases of coronavirus among the detainees after an outbreak, as reported by the New York Post.
The claims were made in a filing by the Government Accountability Project, a nonprofit watchdog group; the two whistleblowers were Arthur Pearlstein and Lauren Reinhold, described by the filing as “career federal civil servants” who had been volunteering at the detention facility in Fort Bliss, Texas from the months of April to June.
According to the filing, “COVID was widespread among children and eventually spread to many employees,”
Authorities in La Joya, Texas discovered Tuesday that a significant number of illegal aliens are staying in hotel rooms provided to them by charities, and were actively infecting other people with the coronavirus in fast food restaurants and other locations, as reported by Fox News.
Sergeant Manuel Casas of the La Joya Police Department (LJPD) said in a statement that authorities were first made aware of the situation on Monday, when an officer was flagged down by a concerned citizen at a Whataburger in town.
The individual reported that there was a large illegal family inside the restaurant, visibly displaying signs of sickness such as coughing and sneezing without making any efforts
Despite appearances, the Right in California is actually the closest to offering a solution to the Left’s war on civilization.(Snip) The GOP is more or less nonexistent in the Golden State. But perhaps this is also why almost all of the most vibrant, confident, and influential writers on the Right today are from California.
The strongest institutions on the Right, inoculated as they have been against the disease of wokeness—institutions like this magazine and the Claremont Institute—originated in California. Californian writers like Victor Davis Hanson and Angelo Codevilla were the first to describe the defining political struggle of our time between the ruling class and the country class,
Cleveland Indians new name

In announcing the Cleveland Indians will become the Cleveland Guardians, management overlooked one tiny little thing.
There already is a Cleveland Guardians team.
The Cleveland Guardians is a roller derby team. (Snip)From that Ballpark in the Sky, Louis Sockalexis smiles.
The Deerfoot of the Diamond played outfield for 3 seasons for the Cleveland Spiders, making him the first American Indian to play in the major leagues. In 1915, the Cleveland baseball team decided to become the Indians in his honor.
106 years later, management decided to withdraw the honor.
The Biden Administration, Nancy Pelosi, the CDC and scientific establishment along with the Democrat machine writ large, have re-instituted a new indoor national mask mandate that everyone is expected to abide by. However, check out Joe Biden today in Pennsylvania…. notice anything missing? (Photos)Not a mask in sight; which highlights the reality – Democrats do not even believe their own message. It’s not really hypocrisy because they know the mask narrative is a fraud. They know their mask narrative is a purposeful ruse. Their actual behavior is a physical representation of the lie they know they are selling.
As Donald Trump Jr rightly said, the mask mandate

In roughly three minutes, you can fill the gas tank of a Ford Mustang and have enough range to go about 300 miles with its V8 engine. But on a recent 200-mile trip from Boston to New York in the Mustang's electric Mach-E variant, Axios' Dan Primack said he felt "panic" as his battery level dipped below 23% while searching for a compatible charger to complete his trip. "I was assured that this might be one of the country's easiest EV routes," Primack wrote. "Those assurances were misplaced." For Bloomberg automotive analyst Kevin Tynan, an hour plugged into his household
When superstar gymnast Simone Biles withdrew from team competition this past week at the Tokyo Olympics, citing emotional exhaustion that was hampering her ability to perform, the world gasped. It seemed not to know what to make of a top athlete — and, in Biles’ case, a cultural phenomenon and a singular force in gymnastics — choosing to step away from a game while it was still in play, especially the Olympics, the most venerated of sporting events. And yet it made perfect sense. Biles was simply saying “no” to the enormous pressure, physical and psychological, that an event like
The lifestyles of around three average Americans will create enough planet-heating emissions to kill one person, and the emissions from a single coal-fired power plant are likely to result in more than 900 deaths, according to the first analysis to calculate the mortal cost of carbon emissions.
You Can't Be Friends with Conservatives?
43 replies
One of the most obvious misconceptions about liberals today is that they personify tolerance. The Oxford English Dictionary defines tolerance as "the ability or willingness to tolerate something, in particular the existence of opinions or behavior that one does not necessarily agree with.
A recent poll by the Survey Center on American Life at the American Enterprise Institute found that Democrats are twice as likely as Republicans to report ending a friendship over a political disagreement (20% versus 10%). Liberals are also "far more likely than conservatives are to say they are no longer friends with someone due to political differences" (28% versus 10%).

Clips of a leaked CNN interview published by Project Veritas show Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez saying she thought she was going to be raped at the Capitol Riot.
In the video clip published by Project Veritas Tuesday, Ocasio-Cortez told CNN’s Dana Bash that she is a survivor of sexual assault, noting that she has not “told many people that.” Project Veritas’ source believed CNN would air the interview in August, spokesman Mario Balaban told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
An emotional hearing this week in which police officers attacked in the Capitol riot testified before a House select committee investigating the events of Jan. 6 turned more Americans against the need for the probe, according to a Morning Consult poll. Among voters of all parties, 53 percent supported the investigation, down from 66 percent in the survey in June and 58 percent just a week ago. Four out of five Democrats were in favor, while only a quarter of Republicans were, along with half of independents.Only 49 percent of those polled said they had watched all or even part of

comply with Covid restrictions, study suggests 36 replies
People who do not comply with Covid-19 pandemic restrictions are mostly male, more extroverted and more likely to put their own self-interests above those of others, suggests a new study of behaviours internationally. University of Sydney researchers assessed behaviours and attitudes towards Covid regulations in 1,575 people in Australia, Canada, the UK, and the US between April and May last year, during the first wave of the pandemic. Their study, published in the journal Plos One, found that about 10% of people reported being non-compliant with restrictions. These ind

A Coptic Christian church was recently burned to the ground—not in Egypt, where the torching of Coptic churches is not an uncommon occurrence, but in Canada, also known as “the church-burning centre of the Western world.”
In the early morning hours of July 19, St. George Coptic Orthodox Church in Surrey, which served 500 families and provided food for the homeless, was set aflame and completely destroyed. Only one charred wall remains standing.
According to the report, “The cause of the fire is still under investigation, but Surrey RCMP [police] said it is being treated as ‘suspicious.’ The St. George Coptic
You’d be forgiven for forgetting they existed, but the fugitive Texas Democrats, who fled their state to stop the passage of a mundane voting integrity bill, are still hanging out in Washington, DC. Where exactly, I’m not sure, but I like to imagine them sleeping on cots and eating ramen noodles every night while they mutter obscenities about Gov. Greg Abbott to each other. That’s when they aren’t spreading COVID to everyone, of course.
There was a sighting a few days ago in which some of them appeared with Al Sharpton at the MLK memorial. You know, because nothing stirs support in Texas like latching onto a notorious, big-city race grifter

Posted because I knew you all were wondering where she was. (I thought she might have decided to defect to Japan and dump Joebama.) All the time she had stumbled on something (she is clumsy so it is no surprise) and punctured her foot on a Hawaii beach. No mention of what was in that glass with the rainbow-colored parasol that she was carrying… We all could send her a get well card…or we could just giggle...
