MADISON, Wis. — The University of Wisconsin removed a large boulder from its Madison campus on Friday at the request of minority students who view the rock as a symbol of racism. Chamberlin Rock, on the top of Observatory Hill, is named after Thomas Crowder Chamberlin, a geologist and former university president. Students of color on campus say the rock represents a history of discrimination. The boulder was referred to as a derogatory name for Black people in a Wisconsin State Journal story in 1925.

“It’s not the rock’s fault that it got that terrible and unfortunate nickname,” he said. “But the fact that it’s . . . being moved shows that the world is getting a little better today.” The University of Wisconsin is making the world a better place, one rock at a time. This improvement deserves some sort of national award.

I am VERY offended by the 'Democrat' party because of it's history of racism from its' inception until the present day. Slavery, lynching's, segregation, civil rights and present day segregation (separate Union buildings on campus and separate graduation ceremonies). I am offended by all of these practices and much more that is part of the history and present policies of the Democrat party.

Black bullying is like any other kind of bullying - finding things to be offended about, no matter how innocuous, then forcing change. At some point in dealing with bullies, the targeted victim has to say no, and has to retaliate.

This story is the penultimate on the absurdity of today's social climate. A rare geological specimen on a college campus made a racist comment. No wait. One hundred years ago, someone called the specimen a word deemed racist today. America's intelligentsia decides it must remedy this grievance by removing the racist billion year old boulder. Why not explain as you would to a small child that rocks do not think and talk or call names!

They say the racist rock will be used for educational purposes in it's new location. Why couldn't it be used in the current location? They could teach that sometimes a rock is just a rock. They could teach that you can only be offended by things like a rock if you choose to. They are find racism where none exists. They made it a racial issue. Stop please.

Lawmakers, economists and advocates are working to extend a handful of key federal aid programs established at the beginning of the pandemic, many of which are scheduled to end just as the delta variant has caused Covid caseloads to rise across the U.S. yet again. Already this week, following pressure from House Democrats, the CDC extended the federal eviction moratorium through October 3 after it lapsed over the weekend. Now, other Congressional Democrats are calling on the White House to extend the pause on federal student loan payments scheduled to expire at the end of September, the Washington Post reports.

Former President Barack Obama has allegedly scaled back his big 60th birthday party after most of his supporters questioned the wisdom of holding an event for hundreds of people during a resurgent pandemic. Plans for the Saturday bash at his multimillion-dollar home on Martha’s Vineyard had been going on for months—but the spike in virus case numbers has forced a rethink. “Due to the new spread of the Delta variant over the past week, the President and Mrs. Obama have decided to significantly scale back the event to include only family and close friends,” Hannah Hankins, an Obama spokeswoman, said early Wednesday.

At most, they simply reduce the severity of the symptoms people experience if they do catch COVID. From this statement, Sundance draws the logical conclusion: Why should people get vaccine passports if they are both as contagious and as vulnerable to contagion as their unvaccinated cohorts?

Will the Biden administration use federal funds as a club to convince employers to force employees to get vaccinated? The White House is not denying that the plan is under discussion, but they say no final decision has been reached. Forcing companies to do the government’s dirty work on a vaccine mandate is underhanded, but it’s Biden’s only choice if he thinks everyone needs to get vaccinated. A vaccine mandate has no chance of being successful. There’s a question of who will be targeted by the government. Currently, the discussions are about targeting large institutions like senior care centers and universities, but no industry is safe.

This is not just scientific madness, it appears to be very intentional and purposeful. The Moderna and Pfizer vaccine tests were conducted, as customary, with a control group; a group within the trial who were given a placebo and not the test vaccine. However, during the trial -and after the untested vaccines were given emergency use authorization- the vaccine companies conducting the trial decided to break protocol and notify the control group they were not vaccinated. Almost all the control group were then given the vaccine. Purposefully dissolving the placebo group violates the scientific purpose to test whether the vaccine has any efficacy; any actual benefit and/or safety issues.
