Bits & Bytes

EDUCATION: The Education Department has approved a plan to cut federal loans to college programs that result in low-earning jobs. It makes sense to me. If taxpayers are expected to foot the bill for these loans, then people who will become taxpayers should be the ones who get them.

In other news, the DOE has codified Title IX to exclude biological males.

FRAUD: The Justice Department has charged 17 people of fraudulently collecting more than $1.3 million in Social Security benefits. One of them, a Chicago woman, stuffed her dead mother in a freezer for two years, so she could go on using the woman’s Social Security benefits.

IRAN: Nick Freitas writes, “Modern political discourse feels a lot like warning someone about a lion that is going to eat them, only to have them reply ‘Oh so you have a problem with lions?’ ‘Do lions “scare” you because they’re different?’ ‘Are you threatened by the lion because it doesn’t look like you?’

“Then the lion eats them and you get blamed for not doing enough to prevent the kind of society where lions eat people.”

MEDIA: The Left Stream Media has been trying to promote its “America is RAAAcist” agenda with the story of Tasia Fortune (29), a Black woman who was murdered in Jackson, Mississippi. NBC reported, “Fortune was Black, and the discovery of her hanging body stoked fear because the scene recalled actual lynchings in the Southern state, which has a long history of racial violence.”

Too bad for them. It turns out the scene was staged and the three men who (probably) killed Fortune are Blacker than she was.

STUPID PEOPLE: A “fetus” is “the unborn young of a viviparous vertebrate having a basic structural resemblance to the adult animal.”

“Viviparous” means “gives birth to living offspring that develop within the mother’s body.”

A “species” is “a group of closely related organisms that are very similar to each other and are usually capable of interbreeding and producing fertile offspring.”

VAXXX: Dr. James P. Miller testified under oath to senate leaders at a roundtable entitled “COVID-19 Hospital Protocols: Real Stories from Real People,” that was held by Sen. Ron Johnson’s (R-WI). He was a trauma surgeon at the Washington hospital that treated the first diagnosed COVID-19 patient in the United States.

He said that the head of infectious disease at his hospital had privately admitted he was working with state government to restrict the civil rights of unvaccinated Americans. This included “their ability to drive and therefore work, by making their driver’s license renewal contingent on their COVID vaccine status.” In a sworn attestation Miller previously filed for criminal investigations, he identified the infectious diseases doctor as Dr. George Diaz.

Diaz was also an early champion of remdesivir. Miller said of the drug that “any physician honestly reviewing the real-world data at that time could have recognized early that remdesivir caused more harm than good.”

He also testified, “I observed messaging by the hospital that falsely inflated COVID infections and deaths, contributing to public fear and generating misleading headlines. In my experience, we never faced shortages of equipment or staff. I witnessed nurses being sent home because there were not enough patients, while headlines about our hospital were simultaneously running, stating that we were overwhelmed by COVID patients.

“I further observed that mask and PPE protocols initiated during COVID lacked scientific basis and did not medically work, but the mask and PPE protocols did dehumanize patients and staff.

“I witnessed patients who died from trauma and other causes being reported as COVID-19 deaths on their death certificates. I watched previously compassionate and devoted doctors and nurses become cruel and ambivalent about the well-being of patients as the COVID experience evolved.’

Miller opened a free clinic to treat those denied care and “observed that many of the alternative treatments that were censored by medical societies, pharmacists, social media, the press, and established health agencies were highly effective. Treatments including ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, vitamin D, zinc, quercetin, and just physical exercise were highly effective at treating COVID.

“When I advocated for patient care rather than harmful protocols and spoke against the fraud, I was targeted for removal through baseless disciplinary actions, with a stated goal of taking away my medical license and ability to ever practice medicine again.

“I endured countless unfounded disciplinary hearings, show trials, and sham peer review procedures, which included the threat of me being arrested. This was all in retaliation for me speaking out.

“I defeated every attack. I remained in good standing, and I told the truth.

“I witnessed physicians and nurses who observed the harms done by the COVID protocols either remain silent or be forced out of our community.

“The public health officials, hospital leaders, and physicians who implemented these treatments and protocols should be held accountable. The data were available, and the harms were obvious.”

GRAMMY NOTES: One of my daughters sent me this screenshot from a text convo she had with a gal she’s been besties with since grade school saying, “is it too late to apologize and tell your mother she was right? I should have been better and done my chores without being asked or reminded or being snotty???” I assured her that it is NEVER too late to tell your mother she was right. About anything!
