Panic at the New York Times

Original Article

Posted By: Dreadnought, 6/28/2021 12:45:15 AM

The New York Times reports that crime is starting to worry “progressives” — not the phenomenon, but the politics of it. I don’t know whether progressives in general are worried, but the ones at the Times sure are. This Times article focuses on the success of Eric Adams in the Democratic mayoral primary. The Times frets that the winner of the race (at least in terms of the popular vote) “focused much of his message on exposing progressive slogans and policies that he said threatened the lives of ‘Black and brown babies’ and were pushed by ‘many young, white and rich’ people.”

I saw the headline "Panic at the New York Times", and automatically thought "feel good story for the day". Guess I'll need to come back to read more comments to find out what is was about. The comments on here are usually more informative than the articles anyway.

Once again we have an article where someone from the left is quoted as referring to a "racist dog whistle". People need to start pointing out that only dogs are supposed to be able to hear dog whistles. Which means that if you hear a "racist dog whistle", you are probably a racist.

No need to worry. Progressives all over the country have accepted nightly burning, looting and murder as simply one of the costs of change. They have no problems with blacks taking their own reparations since the rest of us are so slow in awarding them new homes, cars, Nikes and various electronic devices. Won't it be a great life once they are all satiated and they thank us for finally relieving their long suffering and pain endured before they got their "white privilege" stuff?

The Dems have released a monster via BLM and Antifa that they thought they could control. Now they can't put the genie back in the bottle and have no idea what to do. Anti-police sentiment sounds good on paper but as violent crime increases, the social workers aren't going to be the ones to stop it! The author is right in the sense that many of those marching in these protests are the rich, white, pampered princes and princesses of the uber-elite who go back to their rich lifestyles where protection is guaranteed. Any of those arrested should be forced to live in the dangerous inner cities they've created with their anti-police rhetoric for 5 years. Their perspective would be changed dramatically. Oh and they would be banned from calling 911.

The Democrats are making some costly mistakes here that I believe will have long term consequences - positive ones for the country. They believe their own twisted version of Trump’s place in history. They think we are a small powerless minority and that the vast majority are giddy over their theft of the election. This is becoming less true by the day. They somehow think the violent looting thugs in our major cities have become ‘the voice of the people’ and have unleashed the full force of their Marxist, America hating insanity. They think we will be cowed by their bullying, even to the point of threatening to nuke legal gun owners. They are going to go down in flames. Count on it.

This is only too typical of Progressive/Democrats. They care nothing about the harm and suffering their policies cause. They only care if their policies will bite them in the arse politically. And, instead of doing anything to actually fix the problem, they will spin (E.g., lie), deny there is a problem, slander whomever points out the problem, and/or blame their opposition. And, the MSM will back them up.

American truckers and their supporters are organizing and heading to Washington, D.C. to protest COVID-19 mandates. The People’s Convoy is patterned after Canada’s Freedom Convoy. Truckers will leave California tomorrow and arrive in Washington on Saturday, March 5. D.C. law enforcement is preparing for their arrival. The People’s Convoy announced plans to launch a “peaceful and unified transcontinental movement” in Southern California. Organizers say their intention is to have a “law-abiding convoy” with truckers, blue-collar workers and supporters participating in it.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki took a lot of questions on Tuesday about Russia invading Ukraine (again or still, if you like) during her briefing. But if you thought that she would provide any greater sense than her stumbling, slurring boss, you would be mistaken. Psaki said they wanted to “avoid a large-scale invasion” of Ukraine by Russia. They still can’t escape from Biden’s “minor incursion” remark, which signaled to Putin that Biden wasn’t going to respond with the toughest sanctions. Putin has Biden’s number; he knows that, even now, they’re still having difficulty calling it an “invasion.”

House Republicans are scheduled to pick up at least ten House seats due to Democrat retirements alone, according to an analysis by left-leaning Punchbowl News. Republicans are only in the minority by five seats with 30 total Democrat retirements, the largest mass exodus in three decades. Some of the districts that will likely fall to Republicans from Democrats’ grasp have not been finalized by state legislatures or courts. However, Punchbowl estimated the following districts will change from blue to red:

Earlier today I credited Alexander Vindman with the hottest take on Ukraine. Vindman blamed Russia’s aggression on conservative pundits in the United States. Because we have so much influence on the Biden administration, apparently. But yesterday my old law professor Larry Tribe went Vindman one better with this bizarre tweet. Which, by the way, was published at 4:09 a.m., not generally seen as a time for clear, sober thinking: Tribe thinks that Tucker Carlson and other unnamed Republicans in the “Trump wing” of the party are guilty of treason, and therefore subject to criminal prosecution and five years’ imprisonment under 18 U.S.C. § 2381.

Nearly 24 hours after Russian President Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine under the guise of recognizing the autonomy of parts of the Donbas region, US President Joe Biden finally mustered a response. Showing up almost two hours late for what was supposed to be an incredibly urgent address (they even moved the start time up, only for him to miss his mark by a mile), the president stumbled and slurred his way through his remarks, outlining a series of incredibly weak sanctions and previewing more pain in the wallet for the average American. Biden wasn’t done for the day, though. He immediately entered a meeting about “green” energy initiatives, attended by

President Joe Biden described events now underway in Ukraine as "the beginning of a Russian invasion" as he unveiled new sanctions to punish Moscow on Tuesday. He laid out what he called a "first tranche" of US sanctions against Russia for its moves, including on two financial institutions, Russian sovereign debt and — starting Wednesday — on Russian elites and their family members. Biden also announced he was moving additional troops and equipment to "strengthen" US allies in Europe, but made clear they would not be there to "fight Russia." The President held out the possibility that diplomacy could still defuse the crisis, and said the US would remain open to talking

I wrote on Monday night how the “chickens of weakness had come home to roost for Joe Biden,” when it came to Russia and Ukraine. Joe Biden has done everything but physically bend over and say, “Thank you, sir, may I have another?” in his relationship with Vladimir Putin. Even after Putin issued a declaration recognizing Donetsk and Luhansk, two regions of Ukraine, as independent nations — a prelude to invasion — Biden’s response was weak in the extreme. He said that they would prohibit Americans from trading in those two regions. A senior administration official even said that units moving into the area might not be enough to trigger

German chancellor Olaf Scholz announced on Tuesday that his government will halt the certification process for the Nord Stream 2 pipeline in response to Russia’s recognition of two separatist Ukrainian enclaves. Nord Stream 2, which is controlled by a subsidiary of Russia’s state-owned energy corporation Gazprom, is completed and filled with gas but has not yet come online. Germany had expected to double imports of natural gas from Russia via the pipeline. However, “the situation today is fundamentally different,” Scholz told reporters. “That is why we must re-evaluate this situation, in view of the latest developments.

Note the word “protection” in the headline, which is different from “antibodies.” Antibodies always fade in time; it takes around four months after a third COVID shot, according to the best data we have. But there’s more to immunity than just antibodies. There are also T cells and B cells, which work together to help the immune system form a “memory” of a particular virus. (Or the spike protein of a particular virus, which is how the vaccines work.) Once you have that “memory,” you can generate new antibodies rapidly to neutralize that virus if you’re infected with it. And here’s the important part: The clearer the “memory”

Russian President Vladimir Putin’s decision to send more troops into Ukraine would not trigger the sanctions prepared by the United States and European allies, the White House said Monday. A White House official explained President Joe Biden’s position during a conference call with reporters Monday. Biden officials reacted anonymously to Putin’s decision to send Russian troops into Ukraine’s Donestsk and Luhansk regions for “peacekeeping” after the two territories declared independence from Ukraine. “Russian troops moving into Donbas would not itself be a new step,” the official noted during the call. “Russia has had forces in the Donbas region for the past eight years.”

Tied in with other major developments at the network, CNN’s coverage is already apparently shifting. The one-time leader and sole creator of 24-hour cable news outlet, CNN has fallen in recent years — and not just on hard times. It is amazing to sit back and consider that the channel that quite literally revolutionized broadcast journalism has been reduced to less than a competitor — to a distant also-ran in the ratings. It has been years now since the channel has sunk to Hallmark Channel-levels in the ratings, and the recent spate of scandals has compounded the trauma. One of the ironies seen from Jeff Zucker’s outlet is the perpetual whining

Because Putin knows if I am president of the United States, his days of tyranny and trying to intimidate the United States and those in Eastern Europe are over.”
