American cyclist suspended from team over so-called ‘divisive’ tweet supporting Trump
Simmons, 19, reacted to a tweet from Dutch journalist Jose Been in which she said she hoped for her American friends that “this horrible presidency ends for you,” adding “if you follow me and support Trump, you can go.”
Simmons replied to Been, saying “Bye” with a dark-skinned hand emoji waving. Her tweet was later deleted.

New England Journal of Medicine gets the ball rolling on mandatory vaccination
One option for increasing vaccine uptake is to require it. Mandatory vaccination has proven effective in ensuring high childhood immunization rates in many high-income countries. However, except for influenza vaccination of health care workers, mandates have not been widely used for adults.
Although a vaccine remains months to years away, developing a policy strategy to ensure uptake takes time. We offer a framework that states can apply now to help ensure uptake of the vaccine when it becomes available — including consideration of when a mandate might become appropriate.

Sydney Powell legal documents are the only ones I enjoy reading.
United States v. McCord, 509 F.2d 334, 350 (D.C. Cir. 1974). This Circuit continued:
This is so because the principle is not one of fairness to the defendant alone but rather, in Justice Brandeis’ words, is one designed to ‘maintain respect for law; to promote confidence in the administration of justice; . . . to preserve the judicial process from contamination. . . .Our government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example. Crime is contagious. If the government becomes a lawbreaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy. To declare that in the administration of the criminal law the end justifies the means- -to declare that the government may commit crimes in order to secure the conviction of a private
criminal- -would bring terrible retribution.’
@ eaglesoars:
IMO. Obama personally contacted this judge and told him to stick it to Flynn. Part of the Obama legacy and personality cult. And I think Obama does this because the birther stuff from Trump needled him. I’ve always viewed Obama as thin skinned and shallow. Its only a personal motivation from Obama that generated this whole mess.
It’s egregious that the intelligence agencies have such poor process in this day and age that they let this occur. But again this goes back to Obama installed the heads of snakes into his agency leads. Undermined from the top.
I always ask myself why did Martha Stewart go to jail and Comey and Brennan haven’t?
It looks like it is legal for some to lie to the FBI And Congress if they have enough power and money. Martha Stewart and everyone else would go to jail. And this days the woke left yells racist and liar at everyone. We are all at risk for Bidens jail if we gain the wrong type of attention.

@ darkwords:
After this is over, this judge needs to be hauled in front of Committee on the Conduct of the Judiciary and made to explain himself. And frankly, if there’s a GOP House and Senate – he should be impeached and removed from the bench.
And yes, I completely agree that Obama is playing puppetmaster here. He doesn’t want Flynn talking and he wants him to have the stigma of “pardoned felon” rather than vindicated victim of political prosecution.
And most excellent news from L. Lin Wood today. The District Court in Kentucky DENIED the motions to dismiss of the New York Times, Rolling Stone, ABC and CBS in the Sandmann defamation lawsuits (NBC’s dismissal is on a different hearing schedule). This means that the litigation can go forward and discovery can commence.

“You cannot get closer to total disobedience of any kind of law,” he said, referring to the local response to Covid-19 strictures. “What’s happening up here is full-on anarchy.” Then he listed for me a few of the things that had happened recently: The county sheriff had announced that he wouldn’t enforce the state’s pandemic restrictions on social gatherings and businesses. People who had never before attended county board meetings were accusing local officials of treason. The county’s health officer, who had the unhappy job of imposing the state’s Covid rules on the citizens of Shasta County, was now receiving so many threats that Pontes had brought in a new threat-assessment team; he’d also ordered the bushes cut back away from her house, installed a security system and floodlights, and ordered police patrols of her neighborhood. “She still doesn’t feel safe out there,” he said. “At all.”
In just the past few months, a bunch of county health officers across California have been run from office [I’d like to know more about that]. But what was happening in Shasta County felt to Pontes like a new stage of the crisis in governance. He thought it was “80-20” in favor that, at any moment, a citizen army would form, invade the public buildings, and perform citizens’ arrests of the five members of the county’s Board of Supervisors and any other government officials they could get their hands on. “Before Covid I felt I could talk my way out of just about anything,” he said. “But I had to ask the sheriff, ‘What are you going to do if they arrest us?’ He reassured me that he’s not going to take me anywhere.”

It is good to hear that citizens know that these officials have overstepped their constitutional limits. i don’t feel sorry for the health officer who “had the unhappy jb=ob of imposing the state’s covid rules” … That health officer’s first duty is not to violate laws or constitutional rights. She full-on failed to do that and fell in step with the totalitarian unconstitutional (despite what Benedict Roberts says) rules. Now she feels threatened. That’s what the founders intended for totalitarians in our midst.

“Its a disease, its not their fault …”.
Now its ok to say its Trumps own fault though for coming down with Covid. How do they know it was due to not always wearing a mask ? First of all, are there not a lot of false positives ? Yet even still he could have got it from hand to mouth/eye/nose contact. We’ve heard that we needed to wear masks and then ‘They don’t work’.

@ AZfederalist:
It’s not possible to “shut down” the economy. That means locking everyone in their homes and not letting anyone go to work.
Unfortunately, we spoiled Americans have grown accustomed to having food, water, medical care, heat, electricity, etc. If you made everyone stay home, you’d have none of those things within a week.
Of course, the idiots on the left would just say “but you can order stuff on Amazon!”
And they’d be totally serious.
@ right_wing2:
While they may not be racists, that doesn’t mean that they have much common ground with BLM or Antifa. Those are groups that explicitly want to “burn down” the country (in some cases, literally), while the Proud Boys are trying to preserve it.

It’s the same controller they put into the Camp Chef Woodwind models, basically. They finally decided to make it available for retrofit. Took all of 10 minutes to install.
So far, I like it. You still have to start it manually. I’m assuming that was a safety feature so some genius wouldn’t try to start his smoker from work or something and burn down the house.

If they ever want to be more than middling, I think both Narduzzi and Whipple need to go.
The playcalling was horrendous. The D had an off game, and Pickett did EVERYTHING on offense. Even in their wins, the offensive playcalling has been suspect.
Narduzzi spent the week complaining that they were being disrespected by the media. So then the players did too.
Great job losing to an unranked and beat up (supposedly inferior) opponent at home!
@ lobo91:
Totally agreeing with you on that. That’s what I meant by “magical thinking”

Oh for Pete’s sake. These people are absolutely insane. Trump just provided a video thanking people for their prayers and well-wishes. Other leaders have had this, Boris Johnson was severely ill for a short while. These fools are just trying to do anything to stop Trump from being President.

Please DO NOT think that it ‘can’t happen here’!
IT CAN
If it can happen in a European or an anglo-democracy like NZ or in Victoria Australia ,… IT CAN HAPPEN mate.
He looks alive to me:
Self-Testing for Covid 19
Pour a measure of whisky, gin or rum into a glass, then see if you can smell it. If you can, then drink it and if you can taste it, it’s reasonable to assume you are currently free of the virus.
test early
test often

The cities are screwed.
Burbs and the rest are fine.
Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers.
Cold, I will be in touch on the back channel. I plan to stick around pass the election and perhaps longer pending family circumstances.
Take care and G-d bless.

Although not a member, I’ve followed the so called ‘Proud Boys’ since its inception. It started on Anthony Cumias podcast when comedian Gavin McInnes said he wanted to start a group with the purpose of getting a virgin male friend of theirs laid for the first time. Thats it. Thats the story.
Well, other than the moron left just assuming they were some far right wing hate group, white supremacists all. Its insane. The crazed lefties started attacking these guys when they left the bar they were drinking at.
Wouldn’t you think that, in a normal world, one of these asshats would take a good look in the mirror some afternoon (you know they sleep ’til noon) and say to themself “What am I DOING ? I have to STOP THIS !! Only in a normal world.
