Awesome sauce

Eat a bag of d**ks, WHCA.  You've invited this retaliation with your biased coverage. 

A sudden realization

Red State: "Laugh-Out-Loud: NY Times Editorial Board Thinks Democrats Went Too Far Left in 2024."

There's only one reason the Times is making this admission now and it's not to criticize the Democrats nor is it to express a mea culpa for its terrible reporting.  It's because they've become so alarmed by the drop in the polls for the home team, they needed to stage an intervention. 

They're so lost

NY Post: "Democrats’ response to losing? Profanity chic and terrorist porn."

They 100% focus-grouped the profanity ploy. 

Can American schools be saved?

I'm skeptical.  It's been over four decades since the landmark report "A Nation at Risk" was released and American kids are dumber than ever.  If there was anybody more suitable for this heavy lift, it might be the liberal governor in the most liberal state in America.

Or not: "The state stepped in to fix the Boston Public Schools. Now it’s giving up. - There has been some progress. But the district failed to meet several of its goals, and the goals it did meet have not translated into sustained academic gains."

Everybody's got their two cents on how to fix American schools so here's mine: slash them to the bone.  And by that I mean schools should only focus on teaching kids how to read and write and do nothing else.

The mission creep of American schools is undeniable, and if we’re being brutally honest, too many schools have become one-stop social services hubs that also teach a little reading and math on the side. Instead of maintaining a focus on academics, schools are stretched to the breaking point, in part because of federal and state mandates and in part because they have been captured by an ideology that demands that every single student's need be met before any teaching or learning can occur. 

Schools used to be institutions of academic instruction, designed to equip students with the knowledge and skills necessary to become good citizens, prepared to meaningfully participate in a free society. But somewhere along the way, we decided that schools should also become social service hubs that cater to all the needs of students and families and aspire to fix societal problems that extend far beyond education. It seems fair —and even overdue —to seriously ask if it makes sense to continue using the word “school” to describe educational institutions that are also expected (or required!) to provide breakfast, lunch and snack, host immunization clinics, offer wrap-around health services, provide counseling, address declining mental health, disrupt the “school to prison pipeline,” supervise toothbrushing, teach financial literacy and host drag queen story hour. 

Massachusetts governor Maura Healey has the opportunity to capture the "only Nixon can go to China" moment: oppose the teachers union, fire the score of administrators, and help Bay State kids.  But she won't so we'll continue to move kids through this pipeline where they don't learn anything but at least their feelings aren't hurt.

There's a reason homeschooling is taking off in America.

The Left eats their own.  Amirite, Chuck Schumer?

Always be on offense

This guy is a national treasure.

How do you like this headline?

Not actually surprising at all

Yeah, so so weird.  

MSNBC on the taxpayer's dime

Hot Air: "NPR's Katherine Maher Doesn't Remember Her Tweets, Admits NPR Blew It on Hunter Biden."

I used to listen to NPR fairly regularly during my work commute.  I even donated a couple times!  But Trump Derangement Syndrome made NPR intolerable and I'm not the only one who noticed:

Over the decade that NPR’s journalism priorities have narrowed, so has its audience. Back in 2011 it was roughly divided between liberals, moderates, and conservatives, tilting just slightly to the left. By 2023, progressive listeners outnumbered conservatives by six to one.

Defund these left-wing clowns, post-haste.  I refuse to pay for this.

This nothingburger is all they have

OMG, the performative outrage over this group chat story: "The Atlantic's Signal Story Is Quickly Falling Apart."

Yes, it's an embarrassing mistake but the Democrats are trying to revive the "but her emails" meme.

So unclassified info was discussed on an encrypted messaging app approved for use by staff, where all parties involved were unified under President Trump’s agenda.

They’re so bad at this lol.

There's only four, geniuses

The Hill: "5 ways Democrats can fight Trump and defend the republic."

Two of them are more foot-stamping and the other two ("detail what we would do" and "eliminate waste, fraud and abuse") are things you either didn't do before the election or failed to articulate during the campaign.  You're all on board with cutting waste now? 

Just like Bernie's deathbed conversion for stopping illegal immigration, I guess. 

Old man yells at cloud

Left-wing fruitcake Robin Abcarian in the LA Times: "Americans aren't waiting for the Democratic Party to take on Trump."

What exactly are they doing?  Marching and protesting.  And protesting and marching.  And screaming at the sky.

Good luck with all that.

Trust has been lost

John Kass: "How the New York Times is killing America." - "The New York Times is as lost in its Acela Corridor provincialism as any isolated shepherd boy in the most remote valley of Kurdistan. It hates the America that most of us love and so many died for. In its offices and newsroom, The New York Times whispers into its sleeve like the politicos of old Chicago and Tammany." 

This is a condemnation of the New York Times and most of the mainstream media.  If a serious pandemic or national emergency emerges, nobody is going to believe the Boy who Cried Russian Collusion. 

Just like Reddit

Commentary: "Bluesky: The Online Cone of Silence"

I quickly learned that the site’s core innovation is not finding ways to facilitate thoughtful conversations. Instead, Bluesky’s secret sauce is the powerful tools it gives users to shut down voices they disagree with. Block lists—featuring the names of people you will not permit to see your posts—are public and widely shared and discussed. “People make nasty lists and lists and lists there,” a Bluesky user in Germany explained to me. Many Bluesky regulars import other users’ lists wholesale, allowing them to block hundreds of people they’ve never even heard of. One frustrated user complained, “I barely have 1,000 followers here on Bluesky and I’ve already been blocked by 300+ people!”

Perhaps it’s no surprise that a platform built on the notion that users need sanctuary from dangerous ideas would encourage hypervigilance against intruders. Some Bluesky users roam the site like white blood cells in the human bloodstream, always searching for invading pathogens. Any time a new user arrives who shows signs of heterodox thinking, they raise the alarm.

I've heard that Bluesky is the ultimate echo chamber and the drive to censor doesn't surprise me at all.  I've seen the same thing on Reddit where users rush to compliant (and left-leaning) moderators whenever a thought-crime is committed.  The Left hates free speech and, thus, these hive mind safe zones.
