The Frauds In The El Paso And Dayton Shootings

An astonishing disinformation campaign has broken out following mass shootings in El Paso, TX and Dayton, OH with grossly inaccurate reporting on the manifesto published by the alleged El Paso shooter and a ridiculous call for banning "assault weapons" when gun control is a universal failure.

The Fraud Of "Dadaist Science"

The "data" that supports climate change is a fraud

Earlier this month Stephen Hawking declared: “We are close to the tipping point where global warming becomes irreversible. Trump’s action [withdrawing from the Paris climate accord] could push the Earth over the brink, to become like Venus, with a temperature of two hundred and fifty degrees [Celsius], and raining sulphuric acid.”
Let’s unpack this a bit, using actual science. The proportion of carbon dioxide in the earth’s atmosphere is currently about 400 parts per million (ppm). The Cambrian explosion—when most animal lineages first appeared—occurred a little more than 500 million years ago when, according to all estimates, carbon dioxide levels were several times higher than today. The atmosphere of Venus is 965,000 ppm carbon dioxide, enveloped in clouds of sulfuric acid. And Venus itself is almost 26 million miles closer to the sun than Earth.

Democratic Party Regime Change Deja Vu

The Democratic Party and the Media Culture it works with wants to delgitimize the 2016 election - sound familiar?  That's because it strove to delegitimize Richard Nixon's 1968 election, and for the same reason - their cherished conceit was exposed and shown up. Adding to the irony is indication the absurd prosecution of Trump about Soviet Russia is actually the Democratic Party playing Cover Your Ass with regard to its own covert dealings with Soviet Russia.

The False Claim About 24 Million 'Losing' Insurance

The Democrats as usual use a fraudulent and dishonest argument

In the hour it was reported with smothering ubiquity that the GOP's Obamacare replacement would cause 24 million individuals to lose insurance, the debate about government health care policy was given a bucket of buffalo wings, a wet nap, and a day off. It was about to get sloppy and awfully lazy.
24 million people losing insurance is roughly equivalent to the population of 15 particular states, Rachel Maddow tweeted, not one of them with more than five electoral votes, but, when listed vertically, appeared ominous. Almost 50,000 users have hit the retweet button.


That's 50,000 users who have participated in the week's biggest question-begging exercise. Nowhere in the Congressional Budget Office's projections about the American Health Care Act did the agency say the bill would cause 24 million to lose coverage—cancel it or take it from them. The report, rather, estimated that the total number of individuals insured under the Republican plan would eventually be 24 million fewer than the total insured under Obamacare. Why is that?

The Year the Campus Culture Wars Jumped the Shark

The year when selfish censorship and dishonesty reached a despicable level on colleges

The Media Turn Against Their Own Fake News Crusade

The phoniness of the Mainstream Media never seems to stop



Fake news! The phrase was such a handy hammer for liberals to pound the heads of conservatives—until conservatives grabbed the hammer and started pounding liberals, pointing out some of the fakery that liberals had fallen for. How dare they? So now the liberal mantra is: We must retire that dreadful phrase fake news.


Washington Post media columnist Margaret Sullivan has issued new marching orders to the press: 'Fake news' has had its 15 minutes of fame. Let's put this tainted term out of its misery.
Remember that the tainted term is strictly of liberal origin. The phrase fake news in its current sense only took off in mid-November, when the liberal media scrambled to find some reason why their favored candidate, Hillary Clinton, had lost the presidential election besides She was a lousy candidate who ran a lousy campaign and We misread the American electorate. So was born the notion that Trump voters had mostly been gullible simpletons who believed everything they read on the Internet, including stories with headlines like Breaking News Surfaces that Obama Was Born in Kenya and Pope Francis Forbids Catholics From Voting for Hillary. (Both these headlines had originated from sites in a village in Macedonia whose clever teenagers had figured how to make sneaker money by generating Facebook clicks that produced ad revenue for them.)
